I figured it was a good idea in case anyone ever wanted to e-mail me, but I could still keep ... http://www.sleepfordreaming.net/2009/01/03/im-not-quite-eva-longoria/ Happy 2009 from Seattle!! (Disclaimer: This video is from last year; obviously it's impossible for me to post this year's video, since it hasn't happened yet. Apologies for the fireworks glitch they encountered, although it was pretty funny!) http://www.sleepfordreaming.net/2008/12/31/475/ Today, I have the story to beat all stories. Well, maybe not, but it's pretty far up there. I'll try to make this as least complicated as possible. To give some background, I do medical billing for a living. It's not exciting, trust me, but it pays the bills and that's ... http://www.sleepfordreaming.net/2008/12/29/the-birds-and-the-beessquared/ They tend to be laid-back around my house. One thing I have noticed, however, is that although I am not (nor have I ever been) much of a television person, post-holiday weekends provide me with a chance to catch up on all my favorite television shows/movies via DVD. Therefore, believe ... http://www.sleepfordreaming.net/2008/12/28/post-holiday-weekends/ So, imagine my delight/surprise yesterday when I logged into Entrecard (a new addiction of mine, talk about a great way to find fabulous new blogs) and discovered a message from Patricia over at Subjective Soup telling me to stop by her blog for a gift! Here's what I found when I ... http://www.sleepfordreaming.net/2008/12/26/who-says-christmas-has-to-end/ Quite possibly my favorite instrumental Christmas song/arrangement ever... Merry Christmas, everyone!! http://www.sleepfordreaming.net/2008/12/25/merry-christmas/ Received via e-mail (thanks Mom!): Once again this holiday, I have had requests for my tequila christmas cake so here goes: Please keep in your files as I am getting tired of typing this up every year! 1 cup sugar 1 tsp. baking powder 1 cup water 1 tsp. salt 1 cup brown sugar Lemon juice 4 large ... http://www.sleepfordreaming.net/2008/12/24/tequila-christmas-cake/ Have you ever looked at what someone was wearing and been able to tell what part of the country they're from? And I don't just mean "Oh, they're wearing cowboy boots, they must be from Texas or somewhere close." I mean down to the brand name, you're able to tell ... http://www.sleepfordreaming.net/2008/12/22/are-you-what-you-wear/ So, I have a raging headache today and to make it worse, I'm back at work. Technically I had every reason to take another snow day, but I felt bad taking another day off when I could at least attempt to come, so...the attempt was made, and (sadly) it succeeded.
