Funny & interesting

Here are just some random stuff that I thought of today or I did today.

I bent down to take a look at the dates on some packages of meat at the grocery store today. When I started to raise back up I realized that my hair had gotten caught in the "one at a time" plastic bag dispenser. It was fairly easy to get unattached, but I had to take out my barrette and finger comb my hair to get it somewhat normal. There were of course onlookers.

Also in Target. A fun song came on the overhead sound system and I realized that I was singing quite loudly to the music.

I put the milk in the cupboard. I tried to, I should say. The milk was too tall, but I spent a good 10 seconds trying to make it fit!

I read this on Facebook the other day: "I'm currently living in a snow globe that someone keeps shaking!"

I want so badly to like "Everyday with Rachel Ray" magazine. I've purchased 3 or 4 of the magazines and I don't like anything in it. That's just sad. I will quit buying them now, I've learned my lesson. I'm taking the ones that I have purchased (and of course saved!) to my rental condo and if they don't want it, they can take them to the Mayo Clinic waiting room.

Happiness, being a dessert so sweet, May life give you more than you can ever eat.

Click on each horse - Nothing bad will happen - totally G rated. It's funny in a weird way.


We've all heard these things before (when it comes to the state you live in -- but I still find them funny every time!) Here's some of my favorites about my birthplace, Michigan


I was told that this next section was from Jeff Foxworthy - but I have no idea if that is indeed true...but it sounds like him.

If someone in a store offers you assistance, and they don't work there, you might live in Michigan.

If your dad's suntan stops at a line curving around the middle of his forehead, you might live in Michigan.

If you have worn shorts and a coat at the same time, you might live in Michigan.

If your town has an equal number of bars and churches, you might live in Michigan.

If you have had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number, you might live in Michigan.
