Bah…got nothing to really talk about.
BAH!!
Of course…
- Looking forward to another awesome weekend with Ankle Biter. I put up an empty Christmas tree yesterday (what…too soon?) and I’m really looking forward to decorating it with him tonight. The neighbors across the street (the ones who went all ape-shit at Halloween) already have Christmas lights up on their house, so I’m anticipating him being excited about decorations and Christmas in general. He’s already saying, “ho ho ho” but I’m not sure if he’s aware of the whole Santa Claus thing yet. He’s three, so I’m sure it’s coming.
- Adam Lambert is all over the place lately.
Adam Lambert
And much like, say, Amy Winehouse…he’s not in the news for his music. And to me, that’s the biggest shame. He says that he didn’t want to offend anybody. Bullshit. He wanted to make a spectacle of himself and be as outlandish and outrageous as he possibly could be. Well guess what, Adam? It worked. Now EVERYBODY is talking about you…only it’s not all positive. And to suggest it’s discrimination is just silly. You acted like a tool; you’re being treated like a tool. It’s too bad that right out of the gate you’ve decided to make your music take backstage, because that’s the reason you were popular to begin with. I predict that unless some major damage control is done, you’ll be performing alongside Justin Guarini & Fantasia very, very soon.
- There’s a slight possibility that Rugrat might not come to visit me over the holidays. At this point, her mom hasn’t scheduled a flight yet and is complaining about lack of money. I can’t give her too hard a time because I’m in a very similar financial situation. But still…I’m hoping something changes and FAST.
- What Christmas present do you buy the parent that buys themselves everything they want and/or need? I’ve done the whole “picture of the family” thing for two years running now…so that tank is empty. Dang.
- I haven’t watched Sex Rehab yet, but I’m eerily drawn towards it. I’m sure it’s terrible, but I’m a sucker for train-wreck reality television.
- Is it wrong that I’ve made the occassional marriage reference to Sunshine over the past couple of weeks? I mean, it’s not like I’ll be asking any time soon (living in the same city might be a step in that direction, though)…but I’m just so confident that I’ve found “the one” that I like to drop a wedding reference or two here and there. Is that fair to her? Should I just not say anything at all? I told myself I’d never get married again. I’ve since learned that you never say never.

That last bullet point gave me the chills… in a good way. Wow, you go CBG!

I can’t wait till Ian starts to understand Christmas.

Hmmmm…. Adam Lambert. Ya know, I guess he thinks he’s the gay Madonna. She always loved to shock and, quite frankly, made the news because of that more than her music. Lady Gaga seems to enjoy the shock factor too. I guess our limitations are always being challenged by rock stars.
Hope you do get to spend some time with the Rugrat over the holidays. You should definitely post some pics of you and Ankle Biter decorating for Christmas!
For the parent who buys themselves everything: a gift certificate to their favorite restaurant or a pampering spa day.
And no, I don’t think its bad to say that Sunshine is “the one”. And its not bad to say you wanna marry her. You’ve both been married before – its not like you don’t know that the next step to “seal the deal” would be to move and marry. Rascal and I talk about this too. We also feel like we have time and there’s no need to rush. Its always good to know that the intention is there though.
((hugs))

“Mare-WIGE” (said in The Princess Bride style)
It’s all good CBG. Women love to hear that.

Single Mom Seeking — It’s still a bit early to really make any serious references, but I feel strongly enough about our relationship to make them in passing. I truly believe it will happen eventually…
Bobbi — Yeah…it’s really awesome to see his eyes light up at Christmas decorations. I’m loving this time of year.
T — Y’know, I’ve heard the comparisons of Gaga and Lambert to Madonna…but I’m trying to think of a time when Madonna was just shocking for the sake of shock (other than her movie and her SEX book, obviously). When she rolled around on the stage wearing a wedding dress while singing “Like a virgin”, there was meaning to it. When she sang in front of burning crosses in the “Like a prayer” video, it meant something. Gaga and Lambert are two talented people who are outlandish for the sake of being outlandish, and they’re both probably destined to go down in history next to the likes of Funkadelic and the Village People: more known for their antics than their talent/music.
QT Mama — We both absolutely love “The Princess Bride”. That scene brings a smile to my face every single time.
