A good friend sent me the link to this video/song. It took me a while to figure out how to put it into a post to share it with you, but I really laughed so hard when I saw/heard it that I just HAD to do it! I hope you get a really good laugh out of it too!

A few of my friends and I just got back from a vacation at DisneyWorld. We flew down and took a shuttle from the airport to the condo that we were renting, and then used the condo’s courtesy shuttle to go from the condo to DisneyWorld and back again. There were lots of restaurants within walking distance of the condo so we never had to rent a car.
What a great trip that was! I loved walking around and people watching more than anything else; that is something that I seem to enjoy doing a lot.
I think that the Haunted Mansion was my favorite attraction at the Magic Kingdom. And at Epcot Center I really liked the boat ride through “The Land” where you ride a boat through some greenhouses and listen to them talk about new ways to grow food. I thought that was very interesting! And at MGM I think my favorite attraction was the Backstage tour. But I really enjoyed watching the parades, and all of the streetside performances. So much fun! I would LOVE to live down there and work at DisneyWorld! Maybe I’ll apply for a job there and IF I get it then I’d move.
I can remember when I was younger, I read everything I could get my hands on. I love to read! I always HAVE loved to read! When I was babysitting a neighbor’s kid a few nights ago, I brought a book with me to read after the kid was asleep. The mother asked me how I would suggest she get her kid to read more. I told her to let her kid read whatever interested her – even if it meant just reading comic books or reading things over the Internet. Reading is reading, it doesn’t matter what the medium is. If you take away your kids comic books, and that is the only thing the kid WILL read, you are hurting the chances of the kid ever developing into a good reader and moving on to other things. I brought that up because when I was younger my father always complained that I was wasting my time reading comic books. Well, I’m an avid reader, and I think that reading comic books encouraged me to read more things! So, parents, if your kids want to read comic books, then let them read comic books!
Yesterday I was at the store and saw someone buying a package of Twizzlers. No big deal, right? Well, these Twizzlers were not licorice, and not strawberry. There was an assortment of colors in that Twizzler bag.
Well, that piqued my curiosity, so I bought a bag for my own family to try. There are supposed to be a variety of flavors. One of them being watermelon, which happens to be one of my favorite flavors.
Got the bag home, and we opened the bag. We each took a different color. Much to our dismay, none of the new flavors tasted anything at all like the flavor it is supposed to be. Such a disappointment! No one in the house wants to eat anymore of that candy, so I guess we’ll be throwing it out. Or maybe I’ll take the bag to work to let my co-workers try it out for themselves so they don’t waste their own money on buying a bag.
I’ve been trying to find coupon-clipping websites to use to clip some coupons to help cut down on my shopping expenses. Several ladies at work have told me that they get a lot of coupons off of the Internet. So last night I went online and found what looked to be promising, and I signed up. I was immediately notified by my security software that there was a hacker attempt at that very second to get into my system! Thankfully my system blocked the attack.
I thought that was strange, and a coincidence. So I went and picked out my coupons and tried to print them off. They wouldn’t print. I thought I had done something wrong, so I tried it again. Again I got that notice from my security software. So I wonder if that website is a front for hackers, or if my security software is blocking something that I really wanted. Either way, I guess I’m not going to get coupons from that site!
