I can’t take it anymore. I just can’t. There are two popular trends these days that are just eating away at my very soul. They might even be killing me. I might be dying right now, as we speak. Every time I see one of them, my nerves go on high alert and my skin crawls. It kind of feels like a horrible, horrible itch that you just cannot scratch. It’s painful, people – painful.

SINFUL TREND ONE

The first sin trend is the way that a lot of girls are choosing to wear their hair. Duuuuuuude. Can’t take it – just can’t take it.

Look, girls – listen up! It doesn’t look good on Donald Trump and it doesn’t look good on you! That’s right, people – I’m talking about….

I got this uber doober fantabulousmous ‘Merry Christmas’ text message from a girlfriend here in town. LOL!! It actually was one of those FWD’s – which usually drive me crazy – but, this one ….I loved! I was cracking up so hard! I got it one morning before school (or that’s when I noticed it) and the kids were wondering what had me cackling like a crazy woman! When I told them, Shawn grabbed my phone and forwarded it to some of his friends. And when I got my phone back – I even forwarded it to some people!!

I was thinking that was ‘redneck’ and I was gonna title this something like ‘Redneck Christmas’ or something or other, but, then I thought maybe it’s not redneck. Who knows. It’s just darn funny!

Buses? Yes, buses. On Sunday, three buses – school buses – were stolen from two Alabama schools! What on earth are you going to do with stolen school buses?? I hate to say it, but, independently of each other, my husband and I both said, “room additions”! Ha! It’s true, though – there are ACTUAL room additions on houses out here that are made out of school buses!

But wait! That’s not all! Heehee! It seems that last night we missed a totally killer episode of Mythbusters! They myth they worked to debunk was the one about a bus jumping a missing section of freeway in the movie “Speed”. I’ll provide you with a couple of the videos here, but, if you watch all of it – or were lucky enough to watch it last night – no spoilers, please! I haven’t watched it all! And I don’t have time right now, because, our Thursday night shows are about to start – Bones and Fringe.

You ready? Here goes….

Ha! Now dont b picking up strange fake lorettas!

Actually, maybe these are my favorite quotes of the month – or maybe even – of the YEAR! Seriously – I can’t stop laughing at either one of these!!

Ready? Here we go:

This first one is in reference to small town folks getting excited about something new in their town. Since I live in a small town now, this one just cracks me up!

You would have thought Jesus came and pooped in the town square!

And what made it even funnier was it wasn’t from one of my ..uh, shall we say? Mouthier friends….this was from someone who goes to church EVERY Sunday and doesn’t hardly ever cuss! Bwahahahaha!!

Moving on… OH. MY. GAWD. But I love this one! I can’t stop saying it over and over again in my head!

You could have heard a McNugget drop!

That’s me laughing! Yeah, that’s what I really looked like – only because, darnit John P – you made me laugh that hard! If ya’ll wanna hear the backstory on that one (which is a very good point, actually!!!) check it out here: Hey, How About NOT Being an A-Hole?

It’s true, I’m not even kidding! She started this uber cool cross stitch site eons and eons ago and it is one of the hottest stitchin’ sites online today! And the people over at Handmade News agree with me. They did an interview with Loretta and she is featured over there today.

All you have to do is click on this groovy screen cap to read all about Loretta and Stitching the Night Away!

Loretta’s been cross stitching since she was 8 years old! Cool! I don’t think I started crocheting until I was in my teens.
