yellow or gold?

Are you attracted to bright, shiny things? Well, my dog is. Every time he sees something that sparkles, he barks at it excitedly and jumps around. My neighbor enjoys wearing gold necklaces because it was a gift from her husband on her birthday present. My dog happens to have good eyesight so he starts barking whenever he spots that gold necklace around my neighbor’s neck.

Maybe I should buy gold doggy bones or a collar with gold studs. He seem to like gold more than my neighbor does. I didn’t think that gold can attract a dog’s attention. If my dog was a Golden Retriever, I would have understood.

kids at the mall

The kids at the shopping malls are getting wilder or maybe it’s just their parents who enjoy letting them run around a place packed with strangers. You have small children chasing each other and bumping into people like me. These parents are irresponsible and lazy. They just want their kids to be distracted for a while when they’re busy chatting with their friends.

Is it just me or are these parents looking for an easy way out?

the gold spot

I have to admit I’m absolutely clueless when it comes to gold prices but I have a friend who’s always up to date when it comes to financial information such as the price of gold. I guess it’s all a matter of interest.

Even from our college days, this friend of mine has always been most interested in financials (runs in the family, it seems) and she’s always wowed us with her natural ability to spot gold investment opportunities and profited from them. That’s how she earned herself the nickname of the gold spot among our group of friends.

Lately the group of us met up for dinner and she graciously told us that if anyone of us needs to know the gold price or anything related to financial investments, we could always call on her for advice. She obviously is driving a nice expensive car while the rest of us, well, we’re still chugging along in our 10 year old vehicles :lol: .

not a beep!

On days like this, I wonder why people bother to set up a website and go into business when clearly they don’t care to give a hoot about responding to emails. I’ve just had some of my hard work rejected with no reasons given whatsoever. I write in to ask for an explanation and help. It’s been over 24 hours and not a beep from those guys. So what’s up with that?

the slacker plays catch-up

I’ve been a slacker. That’s what I’ve been! The days are zooming way over my head and I haven’t even had time to breathe. First off, I’m trying to make a little pocket money this time of year so I’ll be able to have that extra cup of Starbucks coffee and a nice handbag. If you’re looking to save some money too, check out great Christmas deals here.

Then there’s all this holiday activity – shopping, planning – you know the drill. Kinda builds up on ya, doesn’t it? I was a little under the weather the past few days. Got the sniffles like half the world out there, and wasted an entire Sunday sleeping away the cold medication, duh!

SOM = save my modem

It’s threatening to rain, the sound of distant thunder is getting closer. Yep, if this doesn’t sound like the opening chapter of a thriller, I don’t know what does.

Oh and don’t forget the lightning. There must be lightning. Lightning is my perfect excuse to turn off my modem, go offline and catch a little mid-afternoon snooze… till the storm blows over.

Not a good idea to get my modem nuked and self-destruct. Then it’d take too long for the ISP guys to get my connection back up. So it’s best to surrender a few hours of my online life to catch some Z’s. See ya.

mom first

I can smell a weekend coming up and I can’t wait. It’s been too busy around here, hence the long silence. I haven’t even had time to blog much. Plus of course, the fact that we’re having these freaky storms and I’ve had to turn my modem off so it won’t get fried :roll: .

I love blogging and there’s nothing that can keep me away for too long. But I’m a mom first and that means I often have a bunch of family stuff to attend to before I can even get to sit down at my computer. So here I am :grin: !

if it’s not one thing, it’s another!

I deliberated for quite a while before I upgraded this blog to WP2.8.1. I hesitated because I’d read a few horror stories about the upgrade messed up some blogs using older themes.

Wouldn’t you know it? Well, no, my theme didn’t break, thank goodness but about two days after I upgraded to 2.8.1, WP2.8.2 came out and I had to do another upgrade! Sheesh! I’m just glad I got it done though :grin: .
