Friday!!!!


I can't believe that summer is just about over.  I am kinda looking forward to cooler weather.

Today I was listening the radio.  Had it tuned to an "oldie" station.  Wow, do I feel old.  Music from "my day" is now playing on the oldie stations.  Anyways, they were playing this song by Was (Not Was).  Remember them?  No?  Bet you know the song though.  Walk The Dinosaur, ya know:  Boom boom acka-lacka lacka boom 
                                                 Boom boom acka-lacka boom boom 
                                                 Open the door, get on the floor 
                                                 Everybody walk the dinosaur

Can't get the song out of my head now.  Not that it was a great song but the "everybody walk the dinosaur" is kinda catchy.

Over at Brandie's World Brandie is asking for some advice.  Pop on over and see if you can help her out.  Sticky situation.

Yesterday I went to see the movie "March of the Penquins".  It is about the Emperor penquins and their journey to come ashore to mate and raise their baby.  It is a documentary style movie by National Geograhic.  I laughed, I cried, laughed and cried some more.  It is beautifully done and I would recommed it to anyone.  I don't think it is quite the "kiddie" movie that you might think, but there were dozens of kids there so I guess I could be wrong.

Please don't forget that our J-land anniversary is this Sunday.  Please visit Vivian for all the details.  As you may know last year AOL made a graphic for first year.  They have made a commemorative "badge" for this year:


I picked this one up over at the offical AOL journal Magic Smoke.  Pop on over there and grab one for yourself. Actually you can grab mine, however I do suggest you mosey on over to Joe's place to get caught up on all the problems AOL journals seem to be having lately.  This is a good site to keep on top of things like that.  Joe seems to be a really cool guy.

I went shopping for some new jeans.  I HATE shopping for clothes.  But sometimes you just have to do it.  Grabbed a couple pair of Highway 66 jeans at Kmart.  Got home to find out they are too big.  Now I know I haven't lost weight so I guess they are making the jeans a bit larger for the given size.  Supposed to make me think I am smaller than I really am?  Or am I just paranoid?

Speaking of Kmart, John has just done a journal entry on the subject of Kmart, Walmart and Target stores.  Hard to believe that some people have never been in a Walmart.

Have you been watching Big Brother 6?  I am so mad that they voted out Kaysar.  Can't stand April.

My kitties are doing great.  Sophie -- the kitten -- is doing cute stuff all the time.  I could go on and on -- like a proud mom.  But I won't. 

Hope to be at the anniversary chat Sunday (see Vivian --link above--for details).

Hey there....Kathy....I agree with your graphic there....I'm ready for the weekend....
So glad that we original journalers are still at it.  I've been wondering if I need to pause to get some things done, but I don't believe I will ever quit.  Now my family and co workers read my journal and would be lost if I stopped writing.  LOL.  

Hope you are having a good one and thanks for stopping by my journal.

What a great update and I just love your graphics.

I have seen the trailers for March of the Penguins and I would really like to see it.  Right now, things are too topsy turvy so I'll wait for the DVD.  

AOL Journals is 2 years old.  Wow, I can't believe it's been 2 years.  But, through it all I've made some great new friends and I feel blessed to have shared life's ups and downs.  

Thanks for being a great friend.
