Ramblings of a Crazy Woman

Normally, I am not lacking in things to jot down on the blog but lately, I haven’t found myself with anything to say. That is until this week with the passing of Heath Ledger. Something about the way his story is being handled has disturbed me. When something happens unexpectedly its’ only natural that people want to know “why” and they cling to whatever they can to somehow explain the loss.

The Simpson's Movie just landed in my house and I love it! I have never watched much of The Simpson's which is weird because it's been on TV for like, forever! But due to the lack of fresh television (a.k.a. due to the Writer's Strike) I have been forced to turn to DVD's and other TV shows I haven't previously watched. I must say, for a person who has watched about 4 episodes of The Simpson's previously, I am quite taken with the show and now I can't get the words "Spider Pig" out of my head. Besides watching The Simpson's, Brian and I tackled the daunting task of putting all of our DVD's back into the 400 slot DVD machine we own. You see, Brian doesn't like the look of the DVD cases sitting around in piles so he bought this machine to hold them so we don't have to display the millions of cases. I like the idea of not seeing the cases but then there are a few problems. 1.) It's not as easy to open up the machine (as it...
