Did you know that if you search in
yahoo and in lycos for "g's random notes", you can find this page? Woo-hoo! They found me!...Is that good or bad?

Some of my favorite webloggers are starting to get back in the swing of things and write everyday now. I was missing them lately...
Christine still has maganda.org. And now, she has reallybigwords.com,where she now writes her everyday thoughts. She wrote resting in peace. She writes about her phobia of funeral homes and seeing the body. It made me think again about what we all went through last month. This Saturday is the 40th day for my Lolo.

I'm more understanding this time around about people being scared and having phobias of seeing the body in the coffin. I hope that people are understanding of me also. Death is a natural thing to me. Of course I miss my Lolos and Lolas and my greif is very deep and felt, but it just seems selfish of me to want them here with me, when they could be living in Paradise. I don't think its a bad thing to be at God's side. I guess that's the difference between me and other people. All I have is my faith in these situations, and thank God, it's strong. Otherwise, I think my grief would swallow me up...

Loobylu is also starting to write everyday again. She announced some good news today and I can relate to her this year, since she is getting married soon also.

My mom finished little Andrea's flowergirl dress last night.(in one sitting, btw) Oh, it is so cute! Those girls are all going to look gorgeous. Andrea told me that we have to color in her dress with grass and flowers and a pond, but I think she'll love this new dress...

I found this Maveover-o-matic on the ivillage.com. What a fun little, time waster! You can even upload your own picture and make over yourself. You can even create white, asian, and black drag queens.

Another time-waster is Tetris Online. It's free! It's challenging!

What I really want is a gameboy, which Philip has promised to purchase for me real soon. ;-) I'm going to play Tetris Attack. We already beat it, but it's very addicting and I'm having withdrawal already. Check out this gameboy game. I love Barbie!

Enjoy!

It's possible that I've finally learned to love cable TV. We only have expanded basic, but it's more than I've ever had in my whole life. We never ever had cable at my parents house and to this day they still don't. We've always used those Rabbit ear antenna. (Yes, they still sell those). So, my roommate, Amie, finally convinced me 3 months ago to get cable. And I never really vegged in front of the TV till this weekend.

What got me were all these old 80's movies that were on this weekend...
I started out watching
The Slums of Beverly Hills. It's an Independent film with Marissa Tome. It's not so 80's, but it was a good movie. After that, the best surprise came on the FOX movie channel. Say Anything! Philip says that I say that every movie is my favorite, but I think that this one really is. I never get tired of it. They also had the little Pop-Up video trivia during this showing, and it was pretty cool. I learned all these useless facts about John Cusack and his sister and that Skye girl.

Through the rest of the weekend I caught a little of Dirty Dancing. "I'm afraid I'll never feel the same way as I do when I'm with you!...Dance with me?" They cut to commercial after that. I guess the dirty dancing is a little too dirty for cable TV.

And...
I flipped back and forth between The Dark Crystal and That thing you do!, mostly because the commercials were too long on The Dark Crystal channel. Those Skeksies things still scare me, but I think that its a pretty cool movie.

I wonder when I'll have another opportunity to veg in front of the TV( with control of the remote) again...

I read this article on the
Census Results and Diversity. Pretty interesting. Seems like there is no such thing as RACE. I don't know if that's good or bad. Wierd how a lot of times, I just don't know what to decide.

It reminds me of Andrea(my God Daughter). I asked her if she would like a little sister or a little brother. At first she said, "But I'm the sister." and then she said, "I don't know what to decide yet"

Me niether....

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you're around

Oh baby when I see your face
Mellow as the month of May
Oh darling I can't stand it
When you look at me that way
I feel the earth move

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you're around

Oh darling when you're near me
And you tenderly call my name
I know that my emotions
Are something I just can't tame
I just got to have you baby

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I just lose control
Down to my very soul
I get hot
All over

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
Tumbling down
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
Tumbling down.....

Can you feel it?
