So, I’ve never put anything like this on my blog, but this was kind of interesting to me. Of course, I’m not really too sure about the accuracy of these little surveys…

What Kind of American English Do You Speak?

Foster dog…no more?

I think that I’ve mentioned that we’ve had a new border at our house, and her name is B’Elanna. She’s 11 years old, at least mostly dachsund, and a sweety.

Well, her true owner is now in Europe for a year and tonight I gave B’Ellana a bath for the first time. I’m not sure if we should call her foster dog anymore or we should start calling her adopted.

track 8

It is well-documented (by one of my songs) that I am fatter than I want to be.

In attempts to skinny down, I’ve actually got my mountain bike out and rode around the lake twice this week and it’s only Wednesday! And I didn’t really come as close to myocardial infarction as I thought. (I just like to say infarction…)

Unfortunately, I don’t think I’m any skinnier or lighter yet.

this drives me nuts

I guess the local TV station have online polls all the time. Like, recently they asked if people thought the government should intervene with the high price of gasoline. Something like 600 people responded to the poll.

I saw on the news that the station had an online poll asking viewers their opinion of the Razorbacks Football team. More than 1200 people responded. The most responses they’ve ever had on an online poll.

I understand that I am in the minority by how little I give a rip about any sports, let alone college football. But the position and importance organized sports are given in our society grosses me out.

There…I said it. For all of my friends that are so excited that football season is upon us, please understand that I love you anyway.
