You're home from work on the MLK holiday and there you find it. Maury Povich doing paternity tests. And you're compelled to watch. You just have to tune in and see which man is going to claim to not be "the baby daddy" or that the baby can't be his because it didn't come out of the womb speaking Spanish or that all the men in his family only have boy sperm and that it can't be his baby because it's a girl or that the baby can't be his because it's too white (nevermind the fact that the mother is white). Oh yes. Maury Povich. The best in morning TV. Where you can bring 11 guys on TV to be DNA tested as your child's dad but it only proves that you are one heck of a whore.
I crave it.

Travel Plans
Okay...I'm debating what to do for my big trip this year...it's either a multi-sport trip in Costa Rica, multi-sport in Wyoming, or hiking in Switzerland. There are pros and cons to both...
Costa Rica
Pros
I can go over New Year's and celebrate New Year's in another country
It's multisport so it's not all one trip
A lot of meals are paid for already.
I can combine it with a trip to see my family for Christmas.
Will have plenty of time to save $$$ to buy souvenirs.
It will be warm!
Cons
It's the most expensive trip.
Airfare will be about $400 more than the other two options.
Ends on a Friday which means I would have to pay for at least one or two more nights of a hotel to really get my money's worth.
Have to wait the entire year for a big trip and not take a lot of time off for 12 months!
Wyoming
Pros
Good time of year to travel there.
An area of the country I have never been to and may never get a chance to go to again.
A huge variety of things to do from hiking to horseback riding and more.
Airfare is the least expensive of the three.
Cons
Extra expense of a taxi to the hotel (about $50) if I can't get a ride from one of my fellow travellers.
It's in the US and I haven't done much traveling outside of the country.
Switzerland
Pros
I love hiking.
Least expensive of the three options.
Includes July 4th holiday so one less day of vacation to take off.
Cons
Not that many meals included.
It's pretty much all hiking and no variety.
Extra cost of at least one hotel night.
Extra cost of train tickets to Zermatt.
Least amount of time to save $$$ for the trip for spending money.
I'm sure there are other things I'm missing and right now I've ranked them but take a look at the trips, the schedules, etc., and tell me what you would do....

A Bloody Good Time
So I happened to catch this show tonight and well....when they do their welcome message and every third word that they mention is blood, it doesn't come close to setting you up for what you're about to see. I mean, I knew it was a horror film but I had no clue what a cult following it had until people starting chanting lines back to the actors. My only regret...I wasn't in the splatter zone...there were people who changed in the bathroom into "I (heart) NY" t-shirts and came out soaked. One guy had fake blood all over his face and looked like a cast reject.

And then, there's her. Let's just say there are times in the theater world when one of the supporting cast members takes a role, folds it up into a neat square, puts it in their pocket, and walks away with the entire show. Considering that you don't see her from the waist down for about two thirds of the show, it's an amazing tour de force performance. Let's just say whenever she would pop out and deliver one of her puns (especially all of the "hand" related ones) you would groan with pleasure. She's no stupid bitch that's for sure!

Time For a Sing-a-Long
Taken from her and sung to the song "Harper Valley PTA", a nice little ditty about those two lovebirds Rosie and Donny...
The Day The Donald Socked It To The Brassy Bully Rosie Of “The View”
(To the tune of, "Harper Valley P.T.A." by Tom T. Hall.)
I want to tell you all a story ’bout a war between The Donald and The View’s
Rosie O who peddles lies on him, he says, and now he’s gonna sue
No he doesn’t need the money and he knows there’s more to life than cash
But he said, “It would be fun to take some dough out of the Rosie’s big fat ass!”
She was the first to fire the shot heard ’round the world
that soon ignited this fire storm
And unbefitting as it seems, when he shot back she acted like a woman scorned
Then she had the nerve to tell him that she thinks that as a leader he’s not fit
That’s when The Donald called her, “Pig faced, disgusting, lying Loser, Hypocrite!”
Pontificating by the “High Minded” and the Secular Progressives is insane
You can’t by, “Intellectuallizing” beat good sense into a hell-bent brain
So, sometimes you have to get right down there in the dirt
and fight them on their plane
When there are no more, “Cheeks to turn”, they slander on, it’s then you have yourself to blame
It’s ridiculous but Rosie simply didn’t like the way it all went down
Repentance from Miss USA made Mr. Trump forgive and let her keep her crown
And I wouldn’t put you on because you know that I would never lie to you
This is how The Donald socked it to the brassy bully Rosie of “The View”

Hello, 2007.....Goodbye, 2006.....
I'm not one for New Year's resolutions. I actually don't remember the last resolution that I made and kept so why even bother with it ya know.
2006 was such a year of change for me. I (involuntarily) changed jobs and took a HUGE paycut in the process. I pulled more than a few rabbits out of my hat and amazed myself with what I was able to accomplish. I cut ties with a lot of people I considered to be my friends and realized that they really weren't friends at all. I took a long hard look at myself and realized that I needed to focus some work on me. I completed over a year of therapy only to realize that I'm not as nuts as I thought I was and, even by his own admission, am rather well grounded in the realities of life. I fell in love. I had my heart...well broken isn't the right word but...well...let's just say I took a few emotional beatings. However, I did learn that I can open myself to being in that very vulnerable position of admitting to someone how you feel. My self esteem, which had been sorely lacking for quite some time, got a big boost.
2007 is going to be a continuation of those changes. I'm pushing myself harder and harder with my workouts and while I may not be seeing the scale move down, I am seeing my waistline get smaller and smaller as I trim and tone (and pack on some muscle). I've always called the time I spend at the gym to be my sacred personal time where no one can get a hold of me and I actually can focus on myself. Going to the new gym and working out with the trainer has set me on a clear path that I am really enjoying. I'm even considering signing up for another round of sessions while I can get in at the current price.
My job is full of challenges and surprises and I plan on meeting them head on and grow in my new position. The best part about the job was that I didn't know if I really wanted to do it when I first got hired. I took the job so I would have a steady paycheck and not have to rely on temping. I knwo it's probably not going ot be the perfect place for me and I may stay as long as three years or so before I move to another job (in the same industry of course) but for now, I'm going to soak up all of the details and information and take it from there.
I'm going to put myself out there more (okay, call that a resolution if you want but it's more of a personal promise) and go after what and who I want. Part of it will require me to actually go out and spend time in the dreaded bar scene but the people aren't exactly coming to me while I sit on the couch watching episodes of Grey's Anatomy that are still on my DVR. Then again, maybe I can find some nice alternatives to the bars and still meet some quality guys.
2007 is nothing but possibilities. The slate has been wiped clean for me and I start anew.
The journey continues....or has it just begun?
