Has anyone ever told you you look like . . . ?


If I have to hear someone tell me one more time that I look like Ann Margaret...I will SCREAM...or worse yet, Fergie!!! The only thing I have in common with these two women is the color of my hair!!! What was the other one I've heard?...Julianne Moore (or however it's spelled). I realize there aren't that many redheads in the world...and I realize that some people have this overwhelming need to compare the way people look to someone famous...but PLEASE!!!???...don't just go by the color of someone's hair Posted by Hello

Ok no -- I get to speak here. I don't even know who that woman is that you have posted on your blog but you DO look like her. The other actresses I don't see it -- but that woman in the red fur thing - totally is your twin -- or you're hers. And she's hot. The bottom line is that you need a red fur.
That's Ann Margaret (as a much older lady she was in Grumpy & Grumpier Old Men?)...she is really beautiful, but I just don't see it, and I just don't get why people have the need to just walk up to me and tell me these things.
OMG! You are the crudest person I have ever met. I can't believe I have called you "friend". That was highly unneccesary.

Hey! I totally get the "you look like so and so". It irritates me. See, I used to be blonde and get the "is that your natural hair color" question. (Yes it is, thank you very much.) But now, as a brunette, I get the "Oh, my God ... I just saw your twin." And it turns out the only thing we have in common is a similar hair style. But I LIKE my hair style. Such as it is. Very wash and go. Except for coloring now.
I also always get the whole "is that your natural hair color thing"...my eyebrows are much darker than my hair...kind of weird for a redhead I guess, so that's usually the first question out of people's mouths, and then of course they proceed to tell me I look like Fergie.

When I got that question, especially if it was from a guy, if I were in a feisty mood I would steal Carrot Top's reply: "Yes, the carpet matches the drapes!" Like why would a guy care? Perv.

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...

DIY Faux Brick Wall with German Schmear

Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a  WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together.  I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this.  In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot.   We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear.  It's a perfectly, imperfect technique.  I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own.  I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will.  Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige .  Shelves and floor...
Time to Share? I have a huge crush. I have a huge crush on a man I've never met in person. I have a huge crush on a man who does things that are very cool. Yesterday in the mail I got the book that he sent me...the book that he wrote...a book about all of his travels and adventures. The more I read this book, the less confident I start to feel about this being a possible "match". I have no idea what I can offer this older, more sophisticated, more worldly man. The biggest adventures in my life are grappling with 18-year old freshmen for a parking space at school, finishing a set of push-ups and pull-ups at the gym, or wrestling my daughter to the ground for a bath. Maybe I can teach him all about Sponge-Bob Square Pants? This is again one of those times where things seem too good to be true. The emails we send back and forth would suggest that there is a great interest and curiosity on both sides, and that something really good could possibly come from this!!! His ...
