Thoughts in my head

Finally, a spot to let things spin out of my head - no doubt freeing up space for new thoughts, but I welcome change!

Hot Topic = Will Ferrell

Last Sunday (Easter/Resurrection Sunday, of all days), I was at my mom's house for an informal dinner (we ate ham sandwiches and potato salad, among other things, sitting on couches & recliners in the living room! :) ).

After we were full & satisfied (and everyone but my mom & I had taken a nap (though we'd both been awake since 5am or so!)), we watched "Blades of Glory".

I find some of Will Ferrell's endeavors humorous, but really don't care for him. A friend of mine, however, can't get enough... Oh, well, another difference between us - as if we needed another!
I had no desire to watch it, and I'd seen the video on YouTube (and on somebody's blog ;) ) featuring Bo-Bo, so I was content...

Soooooooooo, the movie had funny moments, but lots of crude, homosexually-charged humor & sight gags, plenty of sexual references & moments, and plenty of other disturbing elements had me cringing often (add to all that the fact I was sitting across from my mom!). There were so many references I was embarrassed to be hearing/seeing, comforted only by hoping no-one else caught on!

So, if you're a Ferrell fan, you know what to expect. Otherwise, read this family-friendly review from Plugged In, and think (and pray) seriously about it.

Yeah, my two cents :)

So many things to blog about!

I'll pick this one for now...

I recently happened upon an opportunity I've waited for for over 11 years.

I don't know if I should pursue it, however.

I'm trying to view all options & ramifications neutrally, but it is something close to my heart, and I find that task near impossible.

I've spoken with a friend and my mom about it, and gotten conflicting opinions.
I'm trying not to be selfish, but it means a lot to me.
Seeing it through would take a bit of money, but I think I can come up with it.
It's a huge step, and while researching it (it involves a trip to Washington State, and three days' vacation from work, among other things), I've come up with some additional details that only serve to confuse me more.

Well, I'm sure I've confused you all - so I'll end for now. Just say a prayer if you're into that - I could certainly benefit from some guidance from above!
