Sorry I’m a nickel late and a dime short lol.

Well, Duh Me!

I think you are off by one zero. The amount I heard was $30,000 PLUS about $30,000 for installation.

All this Katrina one-year anniversary has been in news so I can’t remember where I heard it. On C-Span there was a Book-TV with author of “Disaster” and I saw some critical TV show on Public Television on how some Florida newspaper uncovered fraud against FEMA prior to New Orleans.

LaShawn Barber has a meme up at her place. Here are my answers:

1. Are you craving anything and if so, what?

-Had an Amy’s Cheese Pizza for Dinner, so I haven’t had much real meat since Breakfast. So, ribs sound good. Though, that may also be t…

Move over reality tv – this is better. La Shawn tagged me for this and it suits my mood. Had a day at the end of the week where little things I said felt like they turned into double foot in mouth, and little things other people said set off a recordin…

2. It looks to be sunny. Yes, I’m ready for a change in the weather. I do like rain, but not flooding, just enough rain to add ‘atmosphere’…..don’t like wind, though. Just a nice slight, but still, rain would do me!

3. After this, I’m going to my own blog/website. How self-absorbed of me!

4. I too hot to be anywhere else, right now; however, I wish I could go back to 1979. That was a great year.

5. Not a person, but I’d like to be my cat. Cats seems to have a great life. They eat and sleep whenever they want, wherever they want, and they do all those impossible stretches and jumps.

I think it’d be fun to be a sea otter, sea lion, or seal—they have that smooth, sleek and shiny coat of skin, and they seem warm and friendly.

Tough to decide. I would like to have my health back but there are so many worse off than me that sounds mostly selfish. I miss my sister badly. She was helping out in an emergency room in Chicago after a major accident and got hepatitis. Took five and a half years to finish out. She was the talented and attractive one in our family. I miss her.

The weather outside.

It is 42 outside and rather cool. Got snow in a small patch of our town a week ago. I wish we were getting more moisture out here in the west.

2 websites yet today

Gotta list 3. Jewish World Review, Power line, and I check out the Daily Kos if for no other reason than to constantly be amazed at deliberate blindness. And Mrs Malkin.

Do I wish I were somewhere else? Where?

My wife lives in this house. There is no other place in this world I would rather be. But because of my health problems, someday she and I will live at a lower elevation.

Do I wish I were someone else?

Why? This mortal life is at least partly so we can prove to ourselves who we really are.

Tag – Maybe, Dr Sanity

And retro, bored at work? If I am it is my fault!

2. The weather (So. Cal.) is perfectly pleasant. No wish for change.

3. Two websites next: Malott’s Blog (malottblog.blogspot.com, Michelle Malkin)

4. Nope. Hanging out with my daughter (she’s 19) is where I want to be.

5. Nope. Like others, though, I’d like to be the way I was when I was 25: just finished four months on bicycles in Europe–fabulous shape. Oh, if only!

A big plate of pork ribs, with a nice honey barbecue glaze, with the meat falling off the bone. Some nice slaw or potato salad & bbq baked beans on the side.

*Sigh*

2. What is the weather outside, and do you wish it would change?

O.k. at the moment.

–I prefer mild Fall weather days. Here in the Midwest, the temperatures turn moderate of course, the rain is more steady, and most of the severe weather eases up. Winter, Spring, & Summer have the severe weather… you can keep that.

3. What two websites do you think you will go to next after you are finished here?

*The Moderate Voice

*USAJobs (continuing my seemingly futile job search).

4. Do you wish you were somewhere else and if so, where?

-Yes.

Chicago Ill, or Dallas TX, living in a nice big house in the burbs, without a care.

5. Do you wish you were someone else, and if so, who?

-Always wished I was someone else. No single person in particular. But Robert De Niro, or Johnny Depp wouldn’t be bad choices.

Just a handsome Italian-American guy with a lot of money & a great career…. that would do. lol
“The Bachelor TV Show” guy that 90% of women compete over, lol.

The weather is awful. It is blowing rain, and yes I wish it would change to clear, calm, and forever stationary temperatures that require nothing warmer than a light jacket or blazer.

I will go to my own blog first to reread my returning lone commenter’s disagreeing and challenging comment and work on my response to it. I will also go to wordpress through yahoo where I am setting up another blog.

I am where I want to be, which is home on a windy rainy Friday night.

Somewhat like Jerry (#12 post), I want to be that slimmed down person I was in the summer of 2001 and then again in the fall of 2003.
