Interesting times...the best reason for a Happy Hour~! Is it time for the next Great Depression or perhaps I feel that way because I am over 50.
I was married for 25 years and now I'm divorced. Two girls, ages 25 and 20, and one grandson (soon to be two!). Love politics, economics, music, friends, family, sci fi, reading, philosophy.
Wish I understood the world of high finance better. Getting quite an education on Calculated Risk, but feel like the dunce in the corner of the classroom.
Don't just lurk! Make a comment. Even if I don't know you. Especially if I don't know you. Have a conversation with a fellow commenter. That is what makes a blog so fun to read. What do other people think about what you said. What do they say to each other. Link to someone's blog because you love their comments made here.
Schoolhouse Rock--I loved when they would play the Schoolhouse Rock videos.
So I got tagged to do 8 Things by Welcome to Sageville. Very cool blog. Naughty but cool.
Eight Things I'm Looking Forward To: 1. Buying a house after all hell stops breaking loose. 2. A real Republican, or even a real conservative. 3. The new Star Trek movie. (Yes, I want to be geek.) 4. Fourth of July. 5. Seeing my grandson. 6. When I can pull my money out of Prudential and tell them to shove it. 7. The next Happy Hour with BFF. 8. When Chloe's mom has been in remission long enough to be called "cured."
Eight Things I did Yesterday: 1. Got up at 4:00 a.m. to work. 2. Actually cooked and made dinner. 3. Matched the first season of House, M.D. 4. Played on Twitter WAY too much. 5. Read the new Wired magazine. 6. Enjoyed talking with Teddy Bear and Killdozer. 7. Watched some incredibly funny You Tube videos. 8. Read a little bit of "March" by Geraldine Brooks.
Eight Things I Wish I Could Do: 1. Sing, sing, sing!! 2. Remember things. 3. Make every liberal "clarify" and explain their position without resorting to name calling. (That's how I know I won the argument with my dad and my ex-brother-in-law anyways. As soon as they said I was stupid or an asshole, I knew they had no idea why they believed what they did.) 4. Make every Republican explain why they are still Republicans. I come from California, home to Arnold, Maldonado, etc. Of course, I am not to blame for Specter and his ilk. 5. Win the lottery, never work again, and travel the world. 6. Develop a better sense of gratitude. 7. Learn to enjoy exercising. 8. Be 23 again.
Eight TV shows I watch: (anybody who knows me is laughing right now) 1. Dog Whisperer 2. Ummmm.. Those I watch on DVD: Heroes 3. Lost. 4. Weeds. 5. South Park 6. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. 7. House. 8. Gilmore Girls

Very fun...I love tag. Thanks for thinking of me and you better call me soon for a happy hour. I miss your face. Loved reading about you as always. xoxo Karen~ (the Greek) too funny...
I LOVE Schoolhouse Rock! We bought the DVD's for our kids but lent them out and that was it - they're gone now. Grrr... And can I just say I am very much looking forward to the new Star Trek movie. I loved Star Trek, but I have to confess that my favorite was TNG. I like the original, but Kirk gets on my nerves. Yeah, I said it!
I am so bummed those DVDs are gone. We will definitely have to keep our eyes open for new ones.
I wish you lived close again. I have no one who likes those kind of movies and will go with me and totally get into them...if they are good anyways~! I loved Captain Picard. There is a naughty video on You Tube with Spock and Kirk done to NIN song "Closer." I love it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PwpcUawjK0
Hope you're feeling better now~! This swine flu is starting to scare me just a little.
