Happy Thanksgiving everybody! Hope you all had turkey and green beans to your heart's content :) Traditionally, my family has always cut their Xmas tree down on the Fri after Xmas, but due to previous years' drought, our farm is not open this weekend.
So, looks like more eating and lounging around for us today! It's a heavy cross to bear....
Anyway, on to the SOTD-->

With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!
"Now Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! On, Cupid! on, on Donner and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!"

I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
Its time to be a big girl now

I don't hardly know you,
But I'd be willin' to show you,
I know a way to make you,
Laugh at that cowgirl as she's walkin' out your door.
I know a way to make you smile.
Just let me whisper things,
You've never heard before.
Just let me touch you, baby.
Just let me touch you for awhile.

I know at least one of my readers
is a blogspot blogger, him- or herself, so...
does anyone know how to get linked stuff to pop up in a separate window? It kind of annoys me to keep hitting the back button to get back to the linked stuff on mairzydoats.
Help!

I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake
And there was not another car in sight
And I never had a girl
Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school
They were wishing they were me that night
Listen

Wake up call
Caught you in the morning with another one in my bed
Don't you care about me anymore? Don’t you care about me?
I don't think so.
Six foot tall
Came without a warning so I had to shoot him dead
He won't come around here anymore Come around here?
I don't think so.

I see you looking at me
I can tell by your eyes that you're feeling me and
I really want you to get close with me.
So won't you dance with me...dance with me.
My drop top's in the parking lot and
I wanna take you back to my spot.
We can snuggle a little, more time to us.
So won't you dance with me...dance with me!

Movie Review: The Heartbreak Kid
Cute Persons to look at (0-5): I give it a 3.
For the biceps crowd, there's Ben Stiller's Eddie Cantrow (also here). I've always thought he was cute and funny (and he's shapely, which is always appreciated!! I do love an invitation to the gun show.)
For the stockings crowd, there's 2 choices. There the Malin Akerman, the blonde chick who plays Ben Stiller's wife. Pretty enough, though her character is so annoying that it might be hard to get over. (I guess you could always just plug your ears?)
Alternatively, there's Michelle Monaghan, who plays the love interest Miranda. Mrrrrow.
A Satisfying Ending (0-5): 1. Meh. The ending was a mixed bag. On one hand, you're happy to get what seems like a happy ending. On the other hand, I was really disappointed in Ben Stiller's character and felt sad for my girl Michelle.
Action/adventureness (0-5): 3. There's a good amount of slapstick and pratfalls, which is fun. Some good driving scenes. There was also some, um, action scenes that might surprise. Meant to be funny, but still pretty shocking for a Ben Stiller movie!
Love storyness (0-5): 1. True love story? Not really...not, like, From Here to Eternity love story. Otherwise, there's plenty of love story--the whole movie is full of it.
Good Scaryness (0-5): 0. No scaryness at all. At least not the way I mean it.
Kissing (0-5): 1. Not enough kissing. But, boy, those not-kissing scenes. Funny--and meant to be funny--but pretty graphic!
Cinematography/Special Effects (1-5): 2. Also meh. Some of the scenery was really pretty, but then other times you could tell it was green-screened. The thing is, it's a Farrelley brothers movie, not high cinema.
Extra Credit: 5. Ben Stiller's real-life dad, Jerry, is hilariously rude and potty-mouthed. He alone is worth watching the movie.
Total: 16/35. Made by the people who brought you There's Something About Mary and Superbad, but less enjoyable than either.

One of my my sassmouth readers has chastised me...
...for not writing. So, to silence Jen's whining--> Here's today's SOTD!!
Yes, I think they're back. At least it was back en force this morning, since I don't even own this song.
"If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrongI know better
Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew"
Listen here
