Coffee of the Day: Diet Coke
Listening to: Radio Margaritaville
Today's Mental Jukebox Selection: "Janie's Got a Gun" - Aerosmith (thanks to the telethon episode of Full House last night.)
Reading: Trace by Patricia Cornwell
Wondering: What is up with those stupid McDonald's radio spots that try to use
"hip, happenin' lingo". What, is someone going to say, "Ooh, the chick on the McDonald's commercial is 'hangin' with her girfriends' there, maybe I should go on down to my local Mickey D's because it's da bomb? "
Craving: a Mounds bar (what's up with that, haven't had one of those in years) oh, and a new car. We have really got to get a vehicle, this is getting old. I've been driving my mother's car since the tree incident and it's so generic (silver-blue 4 door sedan), I'm having trouble finding it in parking lots. I had to use the "panic" button yesterday at the mall to make it start honking so I could tell which one it was. We are waiting for insurance money, a bank loan and to actually find a car. We get our cars from a friend who is a car dealer and he gets them at auction. We never know when he'll find one or what it will look like. Always an adventure!

Yeah, what's up with McDonalds?
Boondocks (the cartoon) has been making fun of them for quite a while. Basically a comic strip form of rolling your eyes...
Radio Marg rocks, too bad I'm not allowed streaming audio at work.
I'm leaving now to go get a Mounds bar. Yummy!
Hopefully your friend won't find you a generic car without an alarm, or you'll be in REAL trouble!!
I just had an idea. If he does find you a generic no alarm car, put a tennis ball on the antenna, the teenagers won't laugh, I promise.
McD's needs to rethink their advertising campaign!
I just saw a McDonald's commercial that tries to sell their chicken sandwiches as an "upscale lunch." Um, NOT!
God,you are brave.Letting someone else pick out your car.Scares me.lol
I haven't heard the commercials... but I am sure Jake will start using the lingo... "That's where he gets all his cool jargon..."
We catch him singing:
Ba da ba ba ba... I'm Lovin' It!
Crazy kid.
I use my alarm also to locate my car in the parking lot. It's a silverish SUV among a zillion other similiar SUVs.
But if you are getting straight from the auction you are getting a hell'uva deal so quit yer bitching!!
I used to sale cars thru the action for our rental car company, I know what kind of deal you get!! Try and get one with a DVD player, that would be spiffy for the vacations you take.
LOL at your 'Coffee of the Day'.
Diet coke is always my coffee of the day!
My mental jukebox today was "teddybear" thanks to a Full House episode last night, how funny. All the way up until I started using Bonnie Tyler's "I Need A Hero" as a soundtrack to a home movie tonight. Now that is permanently etched, probably for days.
