Armed with Cheesecake and Vodka, World Watch Out, I'm Back!

Haven't had much to write about this week. It has been a whirlwind of work, cleaning and trying to have a life when I get home. You know the week I am talking about, when you leave work and it takes forever to get home, you put jammies on as soon as you walk through the door, demand that your child cooks dinner and then you proceed to fall asleep on the couch. I do have one thing to mention, we won. Friday for the Franconia Moose Golf Tournament we came in first place. It was the perfect day after being hot hot for days, and the golfing was on fire. Nearly perfect game, if it was perfect then we would have shot 2 more under what we had shot. 2 lips on the put made us win with a 59, but like I said, it could have and should have been a 57. Went back to the moose for the prizes and food. The food was excellent as always and was prepared by Bob's dad. The chicken was out of this world, could have been cooked a bit more, I like boiling my chicken before throwing it on the g...

 

 

 

I just saw that Lidsay Lohan received 90 days in jail and then another 90 days of rehab. I hope that this helps. At one time I felt sorry for her, because of her parents, which did not look like a great team to begin with, but now she is old enough to make the right choices and decisions. Her parents can be fame whores without her present. They can make the wrong decisions without implicating their daughter. I wonder how the sister is doing and where she is going? The court gave Miss Lohan plenty of chances and went out of their way to accomodate her. Do you know of anyone who has received the same treatment and is also your next door neighbor or a co-worker? I hope that she gets this done and cleans up her act. I do think that it is too late for this one, and she is going to wind up in a bad place mentality, emotionally, financially, and physically. I have been wrong many times. Remember Nicole Richie?

Can you believe it? Jake and Vienna. Who knew that I could watch trashy TV. I mean I have enough of my problems to have to watch other people’s fake problems. In conclusion I have come up with the following: They both are fame whores They both have issues that cannot even start to be defined in 60 minutes of bad television. They both think that the other has undermined, and emotional abused the other. Jake is definitely swimming on the gayness side and does not want to admit it. I think he loves women, but cannot be in a long term committed sexual relationship with a woman. I am glad that Jake picked Vienna to wreak havoc on, because I do not think Tinley would have been able to handle it so well, and go to the tabloids before Jake could and spread fame whore rumors about Jake. I think that the only one who gained the most from all of this is the dog, since the dog has gotten the most frequent flyer miles.

Did you know that Lorton, Virginia is named for a village in England? It is the hometown of Joseph Plaskett, who settled in this area running a general store and opened the post office in 1875. Did you know that the Lorton Reformatory detained 168 women from the women’s suffrage movement from the Washington DC area from June to December of 1917? Did you also know that Lorton was where the Nike Missile site was built in 1955? This missile site stayed in Lorton until the 1970’s. A couple more great landmark Plantations on the Potomac in Lorton are the Belvoir Plantation, (means beautiful view) and Gunston Hall homes to Lord George Fairfax and George Mason respectively. The idea of guaranteed individual rights grew in the fertile minds on the river banks of the Lorton area. The American Heritage was cultivated in Lorton and Virginia. On the tip of Mason Neck you can find a few Bald Eagles. Mason Neck NWR was established in 1969 for the protection of nesting, feeding, and roosting ha...

You know when you get 'those' emails and make you remember back to the good times, and then when you talk about it in a large group everyone says, "they stayed out till the street lights came on". I love those emails, and with each one, I can say yes I do remember. Some of these though, I did not remember. Maybe some of my older readers will! All the girls had ugly gym uniforms? It took three minutes for the TV to warm up? Nobody owned a purebred dog? When a quarter was a decent allowance? You'd reach into a muddy gutter for a penny? Your Mom wore nylons that came in two pieces? You got your windshield cleaned, oil checked, and gas pumped, without asking, all for free, every time? And you didn't pay for air? And, you got trading stamps to boot? Laundry detergent had free glasses, dishes or towels hidden inside the box? It was considered a great privilege to be taken out to dinner at a real restaurant with your parents? They threatened to keep kids back a grade...
