Nice to see someone that is not so.....oh what shall I call it???? White? Win Miss USA this year. Miss Tennessee is almost the exact polar opposite of Tara Conner. She is dark skinned, dark haired and dark eyed. She is tall and lithe of figure, has a gorgeous smile and she actually looked like she was going to cry when she won!
None of that fakey crying for her, I actually believed that she was going to shed some tears.... Not that I really watched the whole thing, just the swimsuit part...Thanks to the hubby, and the very end, because I wanted to see who the final winner would be.
I honestly can't stand to see all those woman parading themselves around on stage for hours on end. I really find it pointless for National TV to publicize the whole thing. If I had cable or anything other than 2, yes that is a whole stinking 2! channels to choose from, I would not have been watching the Miss USA pagaent, well except to update my last story. ;0)
Here is the final line-up for those of you that didn't get the oh so awesome priveledge of watching:
4th runner up: Miss Nevada
3rd runner up: Miss California
2nd runner up: Miss Kansas
1st runner up: Miss Rhode Island - she actually looked relieved not to win!
Winner : Miss Tennessee
Miss Tara Conner gave an oh so humble speak about how Mr. Trump "saved her life" and how she will now be speaking out about alcohol and drug addiction, but I will believe that when I see it. Reserving further judgement on that one for now.
Hopefully the new MISS USA will do a better job of representing the young woman of the United States better than Miss Conner did.

TWITTER ~ I HEAR TWITTERS
Follow me! Stalk me and see what I am seeing! Check out what I am checking out!
Have you signed up for the latest sensation? Twitter? Ok, I read a post from Jose on Twitter and what it is and what it can do, {somewhat} and decided that I kind of like that idea!
You see this is something that I can get into! I am a snoop at heart and love to see what everyone else is seeing. I also love to share what I have seen and where I have been to lately. I like to share other users blogs with people. I think we all deserve a little traffic and readers. ;0)
I am by no means a twitteraholic or anything like that, but I can see this as being something really catchy.
Just wish I wasn't always the last in the pool!

Advancing into the realm of blogs
Catchy title huh?
I just want to give a little shout out to Blogadvance for having such a good blog advertising program. I signed up for the site about 2 weeks ago and have seen a marked improvement in site readership and clicks. Awesome! Whew hew! Whatever...
That is for my other site. Half mad rantings check it out if so interested. It takes a lot to get readers and to keep them coming back. I find myself wanting to have people coming and reading my blogs and taking something away from my site. But now for the question ~ what?
Humor, reality, maybe just a little bit of dry wit thrown in. Maybe.
Point is I don't really know what I am going to write on here from day to day. I have lots of ideas. I have lots of thoughts. Whether I really want to share them is sometimes a whole other story in itself. ;0)
When you are a member of Blogadvance they will assign traffic to automatically view your blog for the span of 45 seconds in return for you viewing someone else's blog for said same seconds. Fair enough. I find that in most of my surfing, I can get a feel for whether I would like to continue to return to a certain authors blog in that amount of time, as long as the page loads quickly.
I am fair if the page loads before I can safely navigate away I will still give it time and read the last 3 posts of the blog to see if I like the writing, etc... I want to give everyone else's blog the same chance I want them to give mine. Turn about is fair play.
I have found a lot of interesting blogs this way and have advanced in my writing and blogging style just in the last couple of months since starting to blog from visiting other peoples blogs and taking away some very useful tips.
Check ya later

How LAZY am I???? Picking my perfect profile pic
Well let me answer my own question for you and say sometimes very! Extremely! You know when there is something that you just don't want to take a time out for and just go and do it?!? Catching my drift here?
Ok, now that I've got you, follow me, here there wasn't that fun! Nice legs huh? Those are mine...my very own. Short though they may be. One thing I haven't volunteered before is that I am a very short 5' tall. No jokes now please...I think I have heard them all.
Hey how's the weather down there?
Need a lift? ~ When getting on to a bar stool ~ Thank god this one wore really thin at the local bar after a really crabby night!
Catch'a later small fry!
Need I say more? Didn't think so.
Anyways to get to the whole point of my story was that the pic that you clicked on was the very same one that I have been avoiding putting in my profile here on my blog. I wanted a personal picture that would reveal my personality, but wouldn't be too personal and that I would hate seeing everywhere I visited and left comments. No cartoons for me. I like real life pictures, even though mybloglog pic is of a dog, it still suits me. ;-)
Now my quandry ~ I HATE PICTURES of myself with a passion. I do not take good pictures. They almost always turn out horrible and make me look about 50x worse they I actually do. I have about 10 photos of myself that I would be proud to show, but they are older than I am now and wouldn't be true to how I look today.
So I compromised and took this photo this last weekend. I like it and it suits me to a tee. I have always liked my legs. I don't have to show my face, but it is still a very personal picture, and not too sexy as seems to be the controversy all over the internet. Unique!
Catch you all later

Do you miss the old days? I don't!!!!!
Pic is of the 'lake' at the bottom of my driveway at home.
Ok I am not that old to begin with, but people around here are always talking about how they 'Miss the good old days!' Well I don't! I am living them....
The good old days to me mean well water not city water. They didn't have that many people that were on city water back then. I live in rural north dakota on a farm and all of my water is gotten from a well. Have you ever had well water? It tastes great, but is hell on your clothes, teeth, and hair! Everything gets stained. You have to work extra hard to keep your teeth white and not to mention your clothes!
I now realize why no one out in the country ever had a computer until about 5 years ago or so. Their electricity could not handle it! I overload my circuit breakers all the time. I cannot run my dryer as I will overload my whole house due to faulty wiring, so I have to line dry my clothes.
Yes, I did say line dry. I have to bring my clothes outside and hang them up on a clothesline. I have never had to do this in my life before I moved out here about a year and a half ago! Clotheslines to me were something that my grandmother hung her quilts on about once a month in the summer to 'air' them out, otherwise as a kid I would do my best rendition of George of the Jungle off the top of them. Never for actually drying clothes!
I now am the proud owner of a septic tank ~ can we say disgusting! I never realized how much {waste} one family can make in just a few short weeks until my septic tank started backing up on me. It is amazing how imaginative I have become when it comes to washing dishes, taking bathes, and brushing teeth without overflowing anything!
"The wind is my friend" Enough said about septic tanks. ;-)
Dusting is obsolete when you live on a 'dirt road' you might as well not even try! You are trying to battle something that is all around you and never stops filtering in through every crack in your house, and yes you will find many of them when the wind starts blowing!
You had better not be squeamish about anything that squirms, slithers, climbs, hisses, croacks, jumps, flies, or sucks blood.
YOU WILL NOT SURVIVE!!! You will be driven slowly out of your mind out in the rural areas of our nation! You cannot get away from wild creatures or bugs no matter how hard you may try. They are everywhere!
Crap is everywhere ~ literally
You are at the whims of Mother Nature ~ again literally
Your best friend is your dog ~ unfortunately I'm not really kidding.
I personally long for the modern ages and a more modern house, but love the scenery. Can't there be a happy medium somewhere? Maybe if I tore down the whole house and started over....Maybe that's an idea.

Tara Conner finally passes on the Crown!!!
Finally~ Miss Tara Conner ~ you know Miss Screw up herself ~ will pass on the Miss USA Crown and title this upcoming Friday! I can't wait!
Personally I don't really get into the whole MISS USA thing or even watch the pagaent, I think they are all too skinny and smile way too much. {Must be all the petroleum jelly on their teeth} But hey if they have the guts to walk around in high heels in a bikini or even a bathing suit for that matter in front of thousands of people, I will give them a little cheer. (clapping)
You will never catch me doing anything remotely like that!!!! Crazy people
The pagaent does stand for something good and decent, but people only thing of one, well lets be completely honest and say two things, T&A when they think of MISS USA and all her reigning glory now a days. There has been way too much contraversy with former winners.
(Just had a major brain freeze for a minute there and couldn't think of the name);-)
Vannessa Williams is the first name that comes to mind and perhaps the most famous before Tara Conners. Playboy made a killing off of her and the photos that were taken before her very short lived reign as MISS USA, and probably does still to this day.
Now we have another MISS USA with another claim to fame in her record. Tara entered rehab after partying while underage, snorting cocaine, and basically just being an all american {bad girl}. Hey don't we all wish we could get away with just a slap on the wrist for that kind of behavior?!?
I wish I could have Donald Trump stand behind me and say "Give her one more chance, she's basically a good girl" Where was he when I was getting thrown in jail when I was 21?
Please, just give it up already and disappear into the woodwork like all the other former beauty queens have done and let another more worthy MISS USA stand up! Hopefully they will pick a more deserving one this year!
That's my take anyways!

First post of the new blog!
Welcome ` welcome!
Well here we go again! I have started another blog! I was finding myself starting to want to post more than twice a day onto my other blog so I have officially {yeah like who is going to stop me} decided to start up another blog and try to sort out this crazy old mess that I have got on my hands! ;-)
For some of you that may know just a little bit about me, I have bipolar and am just a touch bit ADHD, so I tend to ramble on just a little bit, but try to keep that under wraps when I notice it. The bipolar just means that one post might be really happy joy joy, and the next might be somewhat pissy or low, but that is the joy of the internet. I can hide my sad little face behind my pretty little words if I so choose, and to be frank, I usually do.
I like to make people laugh if I can, and I love to share my opinions, which I have a lot of, if people will listen and respond, which I hope you will if you are reading this. It is always nice to know that there is someone out there. :-)
If I visit a blog and like what I see or can relate to the content I will always try to leave a comment or a message of some sort. I guess it is being a responsible blogger. I just know what it feels like to be just a touch bit lonely. Not complaining here, just stating the truth.
I live in very, rural North Dakota with my three children, 7,5,4 years of age. I have a beautiful dog, Duke. And I have been married for a year and a half going on two in June. Sometimes not so happily, but that is another really long story....
I have found that I really like this blogging thing and hope to be around a while. If I can somehow make money while doing so, well that is even better! So if you see something you like, click, if not, no hard feelings. I don't click on anything I don't like and don't expect anyone else to.
Besides that is not really what my blog is about anyways. Stay, read, enjoy, have fun. See you later.
