Can't think straight....more babbling...

Sorry. I'm a total Melon Head today! Tomorrow this time I will be road bound, Fort Wayne, Indiana or Bust!

Jake13 wants me to change my avatar photo. The melon head freaks him out a little. I say NO WAY! Not until after the concert anyway.

I know I shouldn't get my hopes up. The odds of me being stage front and coming home with a set list or pick are not in my favor. Piere's has a security rail and the stage is set back 5 feet. I've been 7 times lucky being in front, I know. Its too much to hope for #8. Of course the dreamer in me is thinking maybe, if we get there early enough, we can spot the tour bus and the crazy, mid-life mental, stalker fan in me will knock on the door!

My SD card worked at Walgreens. I think it really is my camera that is sick. I had Walgreens burn my photos to CD but didn't make any prints. After checking out the quality, my camera is doomed. I did salvage a few I've posted here. I need to hit the Lotto so I can buy an SLR camera.

Our beautiful fall weather has left us. Its raining sideways and the cold is starting to bite. I'm realizing I have nothing to wear. I don't remember all my jeans having holes in them when I put them away last spring. My problem is, I never shop for clothes, so when I finally do, I have to buy practically a new wardrobe, and then everything wears out at the same time.

I've been watching Dharma and Greg reruns while I'm on the treadmill. I so want to be Dharma! I need a Dharma wardrobe. I realize the show is a decade old, but I don't care. Of course my body will never look like Jenna Elfman's!!! LOL!!! I think I need to go shopping for some free spirited outfits.

Yesterday we visited home school friends who have just returned from Europe. She told us Europeans can spot Americans because we dress like slobs. We're the only ones wearing tennis shoes and sweats. I've never been to Europe but I don't doubt her account.

I think I'd like to travel and see Europe but my nest mates are home bodies. They like the familar. Believe me, just getting my husband to drive to Indiana is something!

Time's up. I need to start walking. I'll miss you tomorrow. See you on Sunday! Have a great weekend!

I love Dharma + Greg. Loved her character. Wish I was a bit more of a freespirit but I think I'm more like Greg. lol

Glad you got your pics off your card. I need a new camera too. I want to learn how to use hubby's SLR but I like the fact that my PowerShot fits in my pocket. Maybe for Christmas Santa will bring me a new PowerShot.

Hope you get right up by the stage. That's so neat that you've gotten that close 8 times. Have a great time!

Sorry you're camera is sick, just remember to save your card! :) I hope it'll work in the new camera when you get one. :) You mentioned an SLR, but I don't believe I know what that is. I guess I'll google. Lol

American's slobs? Yah, I've seen it. :) I'm sure Europe has their share of sloppy folks. They just don't hang out in the touristy areas. lol

I love the saying "melon head"! It's really funny but also describing (this is not an offensive comment in any ways). Fall seems to be leaving us too. It's gotten in the mid 20's here which feels chilly because still a couple of days ago and last week it was in the higher 30's. So, it's quite a change. It's been sunny though which confuses me. The days are short but usually when we're on the period of darkness the Sun is well hidden and gone. It sets between three and our o'clock in the afternoon and rises after nine. Well on our way to December, the days will get still shorter. But at least it isn't gloomy all day long. I hope you have a good weekend!
