The Wayward Blogger Returns...

Holy crap...it's been a long tome since I've posted a blog! Did you miss me?? I wish I could tell you that my absence was due to world traveling or something equally as exciting, but nope, that's not the case. I blame Twitter for my neglect of my beloved blog. After all, Twitter is a "micro blogging site". And you know me...I'm all about things that require a short attention span...oh, look! Is that a puppy?? I kid, I kid.
Anyhoo...I have been a little busy. Oh, I do have exciting news! I am buying my first home! If my closing ever actually happens, that is. My initial closing date was supposed to be February 18th. HaHa. It is now tentatively scheduled for March 23rd. We'll see. I can't wait because I am practically living out of boxes. Not fun. Sooo....my new place is a carriage home. It's all on one level upstairs, but my front door and attached garage are downstairs. It has 3 bedrooms, a den and 2 1/2 baths. And the best part? Wood floors throughout! No carpet...cue the Happy Dance! And now...I wait. It's kind of scary, exciting, bittersweet and a million other emotions that I can't even put into words.
On a sad note, my Grandma had to put her beloved dog Simba to sleep last Friday. She is heart broken, as you can imagine. He was 15. Poor little guy. So, to all of you that pray, please keep Grandma Sylvia in your prayers."Dogs' lives are too short. Their only fault, really." ~Agnes Sligh Turnbull
Let's see...what else. Oh, I know. Let's talk Hollyweird. Corey Haim died. WTF? He was only 38. It's sad, but not shocking. He always seemed kind of tortured. Haylie Duff and Carrie Underwood are engaged. Not to each other. Now that would be newsworthy! Marie Osmond's 18 year old son committed suicide. Have you guys seen what Heidi Montag (who will now and forever more be known as "Franken-Heidi") did to herself? She looks 10 years older than she is. Yikes. She frightens me. We haven't even discussed TIGER, or should I say CHEETAH, WOODS yet! OMG! How crazy is that whole story?!? And the craziest part to me is that his wife is BEAUTIFUL and he was cheating on her with total trashbags. Ewww! Epic fail, Tiger! Speaking of trashbags, did y'all watch "Jersey Shore"?? Loves it! Must see TV...right up there with "Real Housewives". Speaking of reality TV....did you guys think the Bachelor was crazy when he picked Vienna?? I did. I think I threw up in my mouth when it aired. Yuck! Ok...well that's all I've got for right now.

Don't Count Her Out Just Yet...

From AOL News:

CONCORD, N.H. (Jan. 9) - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton powered to victory in New Hampshire's Democratic primary Tuesday night in a startling upset, defeating Sen. Barack Obama and resurrecting her bid for the White House. Sen. John McCain defeated his Republican rivals to move back into contention for the GOP nomination."I felt like we all spoke from our hearts and I am so gratified that you responded," Clinton said in victory remarks before cheering supporters. "Now together, let's give America the kind of comeback that New Hampshire has just given me."

Oh, and for the Republicans (If you care), John McCain won. Seriously, though...it doesn't matter if you are a republican, democrat, or even undeclared. Just register & get out there to vote! Every vote counts...look at how close the George Bush vs. Al Gore election was. Don't pull the "The polls were too crowded", "I couldn't get out of work" bulls**t. We are lucky enough in this country to have a say, don't take that for granted. And, if you don't vote...you don't get the right to complain. I was raised in a divided household-My Mom (a teacher) is a Democrat & my Dad (an a**hole) is a Republican, but neither ever tried to influence my opinion. They just wanted me to register and vote.

**ok, I'm going to hop off of my soapbox now**

I'm still not thrilled with anyone in this race, but if Hillary wins, Bill will be back in the White House. Love him! If Hillary forgave him for the whole Lewinskygate debacle, we can too. BTW, there are very loud whispers that it is a marriage of convenience and that Hillary is a Lesbot. Wouldn't surprise me.

I'm watching the Today show, and they are talking about the 13 yr old that hanged (Yes, hanged, NOT hung. A bull is HUNG, a hanger is HANGED. FF for the day, folks.) her self after a boy dissed her on myspace. they are trying to prosecute the ADULT woman (a neighbor girl's Mother) for "defrauding myspace". Oh, yeah. This b**ch created a fake myspace page to see if the girl was talking about them. F***ing Dumb Ass! Unfortunately, technology is moving faster than our judicial system. Cyber stalking, cyber bullying...Who knew?!?

OMG. Did you guys read about the 24 yr old girl that was abducted from a hiking trail in Georgia? Well, they found her. And she was decapitated post-mortem. After she was dead. Terrible! She was hiking with her dog, but they don't really mention the dog in the news reports.

From AOL news:

DAWSONVILLE, Ga. (AP) - Meredith Emerson was beaten to death and then decapitated while search parties frantically looked for her in the north Georgia mountains where she disappeared a week ago, authorities said Tuesday.The grisly details of her killing were uncovered during an autopsy after her body was found Monday nearly 50 miles from where she was last seen with her black Labrador retriever, Ella. Authorities believe she was killed three days after her New Year's Day disappearance but aren't saying much else about how she met drifter Gary Hilton - the man charged in her murder and kidnapping - or what possibly happened to her the last days she was alive.Hilton, 61, is being held in the Dawson County jail after being transferred from Union County, where he's been in jail since his arrest Saturday on charges of kidnapping with intent of bodily injury. He was the last person seen with Emerson on the hiking trail and had tried to use her credit card, according to his arrest warrant.He led authorities to her body Monday evening in exchange for prosecutors agreeing not to seek the death penalty against him in the case, Union County District Attorney Stan Gunter said.Hilton appeared on Monday before a Union County judge who denied his request for bail. Hilton's attorney Neil A. Smith, declined to answer questions about the case.Her body was found in the Dawson Forest Management Area, just one county north from where police found three bloody fleece tops and a bloodstained piece of a car's seat belt in a trash bin beside a convenience store where Hilton had used a pay phone, according to his arrest warrant.Hilton had tried to vacuum and wash portions of his 2001 Chevrolet Astro van, which was found without the rear seat belt, according to the document.Emerson's dog was found wandering in a nearby grocery store parking lot.Police say Emerson's killing has similarities to other unsolved murder cases in bordering states, possibly pointing to Hilton as a suspect.Georgia officials met with North Carolina authorities Monday to discuss the October disappearance of John and Irene Bryant, a couple in their 80s hiking in the western North Carolina mountains. The body of Irene Bryant, 84, was found in November in the woods covered with leaves. Her 80-year-old husband is still missing, and authorities said he may have been kidnapped so he would provide the couple's bank account security number.Someone used the Bryants' ATM card in Ducktown, Tenn. - which is about 50 miles from where Emerson disappeared - in the days following the couple's disappearance, authorities said.Georgia officials also plan to meet with Florida investigators about the death of Cheryl Hodges Dunlap, who was found Dec. 19 in the Apalachicola National Forest, southwest of Tallahassee, Georgia Bureau of Investigation spokesman John Bankhead said. A masked person suspected in Dunlap's death used her ATM card three times after her disappearance Dec. 1.

And, in lighter news...Posh topped Mr. Blackwell's Worst Dressed List. Really?!? I think there's worse out there. Oh, and Shitney is not on the list. Seriously.

From foxnews.com:

The top 10 roll-call of fashion dishonors also included:
_No. 2. Amy Winehouse — "Exploding beehives above, tacky polka-dots below, she's part 50's carhop horror."
_No. 3. Mary Kate Olsen — "She resembles a tattered toothpick-trapped in a hurricane."
_No. 4. Fergie — "Yes, when it comes to couture chaos, guess it's all in a name!"
The rest of the top 10 list included Kelly Clarkson, Eva Green, Avril Lavigne, Jessica Simpson, Lindsay Lohan and Alison Arngrim.
Missing from the list was Britney Spears, who has made it many times before.
"I felt that it was inappropriate at this time to make comment, when her personal life is in such upheaval. I hope 2008 is a better year for her," Blackwell said.
Blackwell also released a Fabulous Fashion Independents list that included Reese Witherspoon, Jemima Khan, Beyonce, Angelina Jolie, Helen Mirren, Nicole Kidman, Katie Holmes, Kate Middleton, Katherine Heigl and Cate Blanchett.

And...Shocker...the smarmy Taliban looking paparazzi dude that Shitney has been hooking up with (Seriously, Girlfriend. Are you that desperate for a booty call? Talk about sleeping with the enemy...OMG!) is trying to sell pics of her. Big surprise.

From perezhilton.com:

The new issue of Us Weekly is reporting that the photo agency that Britney's paparazzo boyfriend works for, Finalpixx, is trying to sell "partially nude" pictures of the mentally unstable former pop star.
Partially nude???
We've already seen her kitty! A little titty won't be that exciting either.
A Britney sex tape, on the other hand….THAT we'd want to see!
Update:A representative for Finalpixx tells PerezHilton.com exclusively, "No such pictures exist that you just posted on your blog. Us weekly, I guess, have received info that is inaccurate."

And...Dr. Phil is caught in a s**t storm over this Shitney drama. He said, she said. Shitney's family DID ask him to go see Shitney in the hospital. Then he totally exploited that visit by talking to the press about her. I said it before, and I'll say it again. Publicity Whore...Party of one! Your table is ready. He's such a douchebag. I don't like him.

Un-bloody-believable!

That's all I've got for today. My New Year's Resolution? To update my blog AT LEAST every other day. We'll see if I can keep it! Thank you everyone for reading this...OMG 2500 hits...can you believe it?!? I'm so glad that you guys enjoy reading, because I totally enjoy writing it!
