Some News And A "Sweet 16"

Hello dear world

How are you ?? Its another warm day in my neck of the woods. I want to thank you all for your comments and thoughts. I gave the situation some thought and I think that I could have behaved better than I did so I am sorry for how I acted.

I have a song that will certainly get you smiling. Its a song called "I'm Like A Bird" by Nelly Furtado -------> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k12ZybN8vfc . I hope this song makes you smile.

You might want to know that today my oldest niece is celebrating her "Sweet 16" Birthday party at the Ramada tonight from 8 p.m. to 12 midnight. She is excited about her birthday let me tell you. Anywho.....earlier today she went with my mom and I to pick up her large sheet cake at Sam's Club which is an everything kind of store. While we were there you will be happy to know that there was a guy in the store shopping. As I passed him he said hello to me and yes I smiled back at him and asked him how he was doing which he responded back with a smile and that he was doing fine. I think that perhaps that police officer last night might have seen the way I looked at him and he didn't want to say anything to me which is fine. The guy at Sam's was really nice and I was more than happy to smile at him as he did when he saw me. A smile can go a long way and it was nice to have the guy at Sam's smile at me while he was shopping. I am just going to smile whether a guy smiles at me or not. You were all right about the fact that a smile goes a long way so thanks for all your thoughts and comments.

So how are you doing today ?? By the way did you hear that there was a terror plot that happened recently in London with some cars filled with explosives ?? I'm glad that the explosives in the cars did NOT go off. I was constantly thinking of my dear friend Jeannette and her family. I hate to think what the terrorists are trying to do with bombs and explosives. Its scary to think of such things after September 11th. I just hope you and your families are safe and enjoying your day.

Thanks for listening my dear world. I'll talk to you all soon. Byyyyyye for now !!!!!!!!

In Need Of Some Advice

Hello dear world

Good evening how are you ? I wanted to come and share something with you that I might need your advice on. Please feel free to give your thoughts. Thank you.

Tonight there was a police officer doing security at a store in my neck of the woods called the "Super H Mart". This police officer has often gotten on the elevator at my work with me and my coworkers. The thing is I have often said hello to him and he has NEVER said a word to me not that I care. Anywho...tonight I was at the store with my mom who kept saying that I should smile at him as if I should immediately go up to him and ask him out right then and there. Tonight he didn't even speak a word to me but he did speak to both of my folks. As I was leaving I made sure I didn't smile at him and I made sure he saw the look on my face. My dear world I'm not going to try with a guy like that. Its not like he's the last guy on earth. Question dear world why should I smile at a guy who has NEVER once smiled at me ?? Why ?? Am I wrong ???? My mom made it seem like I was the one wrong. However I disagree with her on how I acted towards him. A guy like him isn't really worth my time.

Natasha Bedingfield said it best with her song "Single" here it is -------> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxTgK29qRCo .

What do you think my dear world ?? Could I be totally wrong about this situation ???  Thanks for listening.

I do hope that you enjoyed your day. I just had to come and ask for your advice. Good-night.

Anywho...I am happy to report that my friend Morgan is back with us. She made editor-in-chief of her school newspaper isn't that something. She has a journal titled Random Thoughts and its always nice to hear from her. I am so very proud of her. She also made her 1 year anniversary here at J-Land and I think she deserves a lot of cheers.

In other news today was another day at work for me and let me tell you Mike Rowe who goes around helping other people do their jobs should have been at my job helping me. I had a very busy day of having mess to clean up. Here is his link if you haven't seen him ----------- www.discoverychannel.ca/dirtyjobs/ . I take care of 4 floors with my coworkers and let me tell you. Mike Rowe would immediately quit if he had spent the day with me today. My coworkers and I would work him to the bone. Mike would definitely want to head back to his old show Romantic Escapes if he had to visit me for a day.

Enough of me and my news. How was your day today ?? Did anyone have a day like I did ?? I hope you are all doing well and chugging along.

I must say my dear world I am seriously considering not watching the news its getting too horrible to watch. Here's my advice turn on your radio and listen to some music or go out and get a book you have always wanted to read. Maybe you might want to rent a movie you haven't seen before. What do you think ???

By the way you might want to know that after what I am about to tell you.......you will be quite proud of me. I gave away my Barnes & Noble gift card to someone who wanted to use it so I was more than happy to give it to them for free. The gift card was worth $25.00. Aren't you proud of me ??

Check out this song "She Will Be Loved" by Maroon 5 ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19cD7YTr_fY .

My Day

Hello dear world

How are you on this lovely Saturday ??? I am doing well. I did sleep in this morning but I woke up just in time to go to Truett's with my family for breakfast. I have to tell you that scrambled eggs are my favorite food for breakfast. While I was there I had a cookies -n-cream milkshake since its been so hot. I can tell you that my milkshake was quite good. My youngest niece Megan had my whipped cream that was on top of my milkshake. They have a wonderful buffet at Truett's. The buffet consists of bacon, pieces of chicken, grits, warm apples, gravy and biscuits, sausages and scrambled eggs of course. If your ever in the Georgia area you need to visit Truett's.

Anywho.....after breakfast we then went over to Target where I bought some books, some handwritten journals that I liked and a CD by Andrea Bocelli ----------> www.andreabocelli.com/ . I have to tell you that Andrea is a tremendous singer. If you get the chance you have to get one of his CD's. I'm sure you will enjoy listening to him sing.

So how has your day been ? It has been extremely warm here in my neck of the woods. It has been like 1000 degrees here and getting hotter by the day. I hope that your able to get out and enjoy your day as I have with my family. At the moment we are home and cooling off from the heat of the day. I am off of work this weekend so I am enjoying my weekend with my family. Take care my dear friends.

By the way here is a song he did that I want to share with you from Youtube ---------> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMav2C1maMo.

Update : A few minutes ago I watched a movie called "Jesse Stone:Death In Paradise". My favorite actor Tom Selleck plays a Police Chief named Jesse Stone. I have to say that Tom does a great job of playing Jesse and he's not all that bad to look at I might add. I have always liked watching the movies Tom has acted in. Tom in my own opinion is a very talented actor. I just thought I would share that with you.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0dzZTPWrSM . My dear world you have to check out a guy named Paul Potts who sings Opera and does quite an amazing job. Please please do tell me what you think of him. I thought he did an amazing job. Some of my other links wouldn't work but this one does. I was trying to find a link for you and so here it is. Let me know what you think. YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll talk to you again soon. Byyyyyyye !!!!!!!!!!
