Meet Mitzi Morris

My good friends Michael, Kevin and John host the QCast Connection. This week Kevin and John were not available so Michael got a special co-host. You have to hear it to believe it.

QCast Connection: Meet Mitzi

sometimes it’s the smallest things …

… that make you feel the biggest.

And no, there’s nothing sexual intended by that statement.

No, seriously.

I know, right?  But no, I mean it.

It was probably the most unintentional, most honest interaction that I’ve had in quite some time, and it made me feel really good about myself.  After a lot of time of feeling like I’m never quite enough of what anyone wants, I felt like maybe I didn’t fall short this time.

Now don’t go jumping to any conclusions.  It was an innocent moment between two friends.  But it gave me hope that I haven’t had in quite awhile.

Thanks.  I needed that.

You must be this tall to ride.

January has been a roller coaster of emotions for me. Well, the last several months have been, but this past month it really hit hard.

And yet, as quickly as it all hit the fan, it seems (knock on wood) that it may have settled for the time being.

Over the course of this month, I pretty much had my heart ripped out and was forced to sever all contact with someone I considered my best friend. That pretty much sucked. I’m getting over it, but it still lingers in the back of my mind.

But in the midst of all this crap, I did find a small beacon of light — a glimmer of hope that not everything is a steaming cesspool of suck.

So for that I am thankful.

And I look forward to how things are going to proceed.

Women and children first!

Jesus Christ!

So far 2008 has been kicking my ass.  Between home life, work life, and what little personal life I have, I am already at my wit’s end.

I’m physically, mentally and emotionally tired.

My ship is slowly sinking … and I didn’t even see those icebergs coming.

Well, that’s kind of a lie.  I saw a couple ice cubes.   But damn, what was lying beneath the surface totally knocked the wind out of me.

(Come on … you didn’t think I could make it a whole week without bitching, did you?)

It feels weird …

… to be back.

When I was blogging before, I had a huge list of people I read, and a pretty decent list of people who read me. I had my routine. Come in first thing in the morning, shoot off (shut up) a posting to get my creative juices flowing (shut up), and then to work. Well now I’m blogging from home, at the end of the day … when I’m tired and creatively spent.

Also, having been away and having lost touch with many of my previous readers (I’m terrible at keeping in touch — thanks to those who tried!), I also feel a little out of place. I don’t know what’s been going on in blogland in the last several months. You don’t know what’s been going on with me.

So what do I write about?

When I used to live in blogland, I had made quite a few friends (and even more acquaintances). However, I also found myself getting perhaps too attached to people that I would never meet, and that I only knew through the internet.

Don’t get me wrong, I had some great experiences. I also had some not so great ones. But that’s life.

That being said, I’m going to do my best to write my ever-entertaining posts on a regular basis, but I think, at least for now, I’m gonna ease back into this and move forward with caution. I hope y’all don’t mind.

We’ll see how that works … and how long it lasts.

I’m in love

with HGTV.

They brought me this.

David Bromstad and his show Color Splash. He was the winner of the first season of Design Star, and I’ve recently found him. We have a special bond that only he and I truly understand. When he looks at me … through the TV set … I know it’s real.

I mean … look at him.

I’ll let you know if we set a date.

Seriously, WTF?

This happened less than 2 miles from my home.

He claimed he “just wanted to kill someone.”

WTF?

Oh my God, Omigod, you guys!

I’m a little embarrassed. I’ll admit it.

When I heard they were turning “Legally Blonde” into a musical, I died a little inside. “What a piece of crap that’s going to be,” I thought.

Then I heard they were playing it on MTV. Seriously? Ugh!

But I watched it over Thanksgiving.

And I can’t get it out of my head. Love it. It’s not anything heavy by any means. But what a fun show, as well as having some really cool (yet easy) “gimmicks” that are huge crowd pleasers. Musical numbers are great.  The jump rope number that opens Act 2 is amazing.  Even the scene changes are choreographed beautifully.

Love. It.

Here’s the opening. Tell me it’s not catchy. (Cuz I know you will.)

Happy New Year

A lot happened in 2007.

A lot.

Now I’m wondering what 2008 has in store for me. I’m trying to determine if it’s off to a good start or not. It’s not quite clear.

Nor is this post.

Hey, I’ve been away for awhile. I gotta get back in the swing of things. Don’t judge.

I’m baaaaack ….

at least for now … we’ll see how things go. 

Did you miss me?
