Manifest Monday! or Tuesday....

QUOTE OF THE DAY

"I was on the treadmill for 20 minutes this morning. Tomorrow I might even turn it on, but let's not rush into things."
THIS GUY who has the best 'tweets' EVER

It's a GORGEOUS day today! This is why I love rain. Because the next sunny day is clear and fresh. So, today. I will actually leave my blanket and head to the office. What I love about "my office" is that it's across the street from Target. Where I could, you know, get another blanket toilet paper or other such necessities on my "lunch break."

Part of the reason I've been missing, as it were, is because I have been reading a ton of good books/there have been SO many reality show premiers the last couple of weeks. And let me tell YOU...reading a book about the back maids in Mississippi in 1964 in between Millionaie Matchmaker is no easy feat! But i will say, does provide great juxtaposition. By the way, that book is INCREDIBLE. And hilarious. And genius.

Also this month I get TWO new renters. I am basically the new Ralph Ferley, running a boarding house tenement.

Up this month is a 66 yr old retired dance instructor. Her name is Lynn. She's also a not-so-retired hippie. She normally lives in Portland but is here b/c her son and daughter-in-law are having their first baby (awwww) This morning I was saying how I always wanted to live in the pac/northwest and she says "well, you just have to put it out there to the universe and it will manifest if it's meant to be"

oh boy.

And in the other corner we have Eileen and her showbiz kid. I said yes to them for pure entertainment value. They're here to get the kid famous etc. God I hope he gets cast in SOME kind of reality show. Mr producer friend says I'm really "in for it" living with a stage mom! YAY! this blog is about to get good! Let's manifest that!

Basically, with grandma, mom and kid, we are The Waltons...minus granpa. And John boy. But We'll just call showbiz kid john boy. Especially since I forget his name. Brian? Bob? huh.

Well, All I ned to know is "good night john boy!"

A 66 year old hippie, huh? Sounds right up your alley.

can i come sleep on your couch?

Kelli said...

That sounds immensely entertaining. Do you need a 60 year old former cancer patient? She has a knack for reciting the news during dinner!

Tracie said...

You are going to have much blog fodder with that crew. It does sound like a sitcom. Maybe you should pitch it?

NIKOL said...

A blog post that references both Mr. Ferley and The Secret? Yes, please!

Meg said...

You should also follow @biorhythmist. He's as equally funny.

Dee at Pedestrian Palate said...

Yes! So excited to hear stories of your very own Terri Shields.

Vegas Linda Lou said...

Sounds like you'll have no shortage of material. Maybe your own reality show?

Kris said...

Dear Universe, can you make Peewee's life a reality show that I can watch on VH1? Pretty please?!

Lady of Perpetual Chaos said...

If your life was a reality show, I would totally watch it. Hey, we're thinking of coming your way to go to Disneyland this Spring and we can come stay with you to add to the excitement. We'll even bring Dexter and he can play with your dogs while we're at Disneyland.

**I'm just putting that out into the universe to see if it will manifest itself. Cuz I really want to go to Disneyland. And I think my girls might tolerate it, too. ;o)

Your own reality show sounds like a great idea! The Help....an new favorite for me too. LOVED it!

bernthis said...

Sara @ Domestically Challenged said...

girl? You gotta start posting regular again. I miss your rockin' stories!

Counselormama said...

This sounds like you should have plenty of material for new posts! Can't wait to see how your new roomies do!

I love your blog! Just scrolling down and seeing all the pictures makes me feel like a teenager again. Now if you will excuse me I need to go find some Dukes of Hazard reruns.
