Thursday Thirteen


Thirteen Things about Straddling The Line (on Wednesday night)


1. I still have a secret, I still have a secret! I'm thinking that Friday feels like a good day to spill my guts... yeah, Friday makes a good "Secrets Unveiled" day... will you come back?
2. I just watched The Biggest Loser. I'm a Loser virgin... I liked it. I hated one of the trainers though. I would have beat her up and then quit. I wonder if they hook you up with someone who you hate or someone who you love? But my husband and I then discussed our own weight and how to be losers... we do have goals... and it would be nice if our goals and our secret all came together!
3. There is some talk about Desperate Housewives and how Gabby kissing Lynnettes husband was either wrong or just plain fun. If I were Lynnette I would have kicked Gabby's skinny skanky ass all over my kitchen. Then I would have made her a pot of tea and talked about it. Then I would have kicked my husbands ass all over the whole house. Really... shouldn't HE take a little responsibility for it?
4. Stupid Parenting Choice of the Day goes to... ME. I let Chick go to the big city with her 3 friends and a mom. But they didnt' leave until 5:30 pm which means they didn't get there until 8 pm and when she called to check in at 9 pm they were just leaving the marketplace for dinner and would be on their way after that... I'm guessing she'll be home at midnight. Tomorrow will be a looooooong day at work I'm thinking.
5. Tonight I cried over something. When did you last cry? Lately I've been doing a lot of it. Unfortunately, I am not a pretty crier. I don't get all pale and wan with big sad wet eyes and full quivering lips. I get bulbous red nose and blotchy neck and swollen eyelids... I get snot all over and then a migraine. I'm so fun, I tell ya!
6. 27 days of rain... but yet today the sun broke through and I couldn't believe how light I felt afterwards... it was all of 30 minutes but it was so glorious! Changed my whole entire attitude and demeanor. I opened all the blinds and that sun just streamed in and shined on all my damn dusty furniture. Sigh...
7. I read all the TT blogroll this week. It took me 3 days, and I only commented on about 1/2 of them (it's delurker week! woo hoo!) Oddly, I tend to read from the bottom up... what does that say about me? Huh.
8. 5 weird things: I listen to the same cd over and over and over for weeks until I get bored. I listen to the same song over and over and over for days until I get bored. I like A1 sauce on my baked potato. I have texture issues with food and there are a lot of things that taste good to me but that I can't eat because the texture is off... and if I am thinking about it too much then ANYthing will make me gag. And finally, when I'm driving, I can't put my seat belt on until AFTER I've started actually accelerating in a forward motion. I can't... really...
9. Should that count as 8-12? No? Yes? Oh well... I saw someones blog had a personality test: which "happy bunny" are you... I took it... not so happy apparently. Oh well... I'll take it again another day.
10. I still can't believe I haven't told you my secret yet! Want another clue? I'll tell the secret on Friday... how's that for a clue?
11. I get to go to lunch with my husband today... I'm so looking forward to Chicken Souvlaki, but mostly I'm looking forward to the chance to make my husband smile, laugh, and look at me with happiness in his eyes.
12. Today I told a client that I may need to call CPS on her. It was so hard to do... so hard to tell her that I could and that I would. I see her next week again. Oh I do NOT want to have to make that call...
13. This is my 7th TT... am I a regular? Please remember that it's de lurking week - comment, it won't hurt I promise!

Your crying face sounds just like mine. I've never watched those programs.

I cried yesterday in my car and had to stop quickly as the neighbors wanted to say hello! I love secrets, I will come back tomorrow. Because this is my first time here and I want to read more. My T13 are up!

Did some say SECRET????? lol, I will be back to listen in. Happy Thursday Thirteen.

Katherine said...

Dang, I wish I had a secret! It's fun, isn't it? I'll be back since you said I was close...I also listen to the same CD over and over and I put A1 sauce on everything!

hey there! good list! it sounds like you and i are similar with our crying. except that i don't usually get migranes. but i definitely get that red, blotchy nose and eyes, plus the snot and everything else. people can ALWAYS tell when i've been crying, or are about to cry, or am in the process of crying. i just can't hold it in! lol.

also, i listen to CDs over and over and over, too. finally, after a month or so, i put my one cd away and don't pick it up again for months.

I love secrets, but hate surprises! I posted a kind of secret on my blog a couple weeks ago. I guess everything's kind of a secret in one way or another, at least until you tell it! :) My 13 are up!

Lazy Daisy said...

Hope your lunch was wonderful...the crying is probably sublimital due to all the rain. Secrets are delicious...so spill it all ready! My 13 are up!

I read blogrolls from the bottom up, too. What DOES that say? *grin*

LOVED #11. That is so sweet. I love to make my husband laugh - the gut wrenching, bring tears to his eyes kind of laugh because he looks so darn cute while doing it.

Great list!

My TT is up.

Jennifer said...

I hope you have an awesome lunch with your hubby! And I wanna know the secret, too! :)
My 13 are up! :)

Kelly said...

27 days of rain, eh? That beats where I live... we've only had 24 days of straight rain.

Got my 13 up!

Renee Nefe said...

We want some rain. I sure wish that you could send it.

I've only watched Desp. Wives a little bit... I don't want dd to see it. So I had no clue who the women you were talking about were. I'm guessing that Gabby is the Nicolette character? I know Susan & Bree... that's about it.

Hmmm, I am intrigued by your secret. I will be back!

I also listen to the same CDs over and over and over again until I'm sick of them too.

My 13 are up.

Courtney said...

Well, I haven't tried A-1 on potatoes, but I do put A-1 on french fries (because I don't like ketchup and I LOVE A-1) lol
