Flash! OhhOhhhhhh

by Donna on January 31, 2007

Running off to work. I have to remember to call my insurance agent and ask about my bill. They had somehow set me up to pay monthly by automatic withdrawl. This sounded cool to me until I found out they charge a 2.00 surcharge for the convenience! I asked my insurance [...]

XMmmmmmmm

by Donna on January 30, 2007

The Monte Carlo came with a year of OnStar and three months of XM Radio. I am really enjoying the XM Radio, particularly the Decades category which hosts the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and another decade which means nothing to me. Oddly enough, I find myself tuned to the 40’s and 50’s [...]

There should be a law!

by Donna on January 29, 2007

If you are sending business emails– PLEASE PUT YOUR PHONE NUMBER AND ADDRESS IN YOUR SIG FILE! It makes life so much easier for the people who receive your emails. It drives me insane when I get an email that asks me to call them and I have to hunt for their phone [...]

A new week

by Donna on January 28, 2007

Last week a couple things caught up with me. I had been making mistakes. Two really bit me on the ass– one worked out in my favor. Somewhere along the way I allowed myself to mentally withdraw and I’ve been living in a bit of a haze. This is totally unacceptable [...]

Tired and blue

by Donna on January 23, 2007

If I were smart, I would buy a ticket and go to Florida for a couple days. Get away from the the winter. I am feeling seasonally-affected. Or perhaps my life is just crap. No, I prefer to think it’s the season. I shouldn’t complain. It’s not like I [...]

I am not alone in my desire to be left alone.

24/7

by Donna on January 15, 2007

It was not a decision I took lightly. I spent quite a number of minutes weighing the different options and the time requirements. Ultimately, after a complete review, I decided not to watch 24 this season. One of the main reasons I decided to opt out is that the producers didn’t enact [...]

Suzi Quatro: Back to the Drive

by Donna on January 15, 2007

Suzi has a new album out and it’s pretty good! It’s called Back to the Drive and you can listen to it HERE!
According to the album cover she has apparently morphed into Carly Simon. Luckily she still sounds like Suzi, if just a little deeper.

I LOVE the fact she didn’t have [...]

Do you shred?

by Donna on January 15, 2007

When I was a little girl, I loved getting mail. It happened so rarely unless it was my birthday. When an envelope came addressed to me, I would get absolutely giddy! Things have changed considerably since then. I HATE mail. I let it pile until it’s such a huge mountain [...]
