High School all Over Again

Well, I have this new blogging friend. Her name is Bella. And she tagged me. I've been tagged before, but this time I'm going to play.

Rules of the game are:

A)Link to the personwho tagged you(I've already done that) and post the rules on your blog(I'm doing that now.)

B)Share 7 random or weird facts about yourself(funny, I've never thought of myself as random.)

C)Tag 7 random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs(you mean I have to discriminate?)

D)Let each person know that they've been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog(I gotta tell them???)

1)I am a kid when it comes to celebrating my birthday. But then again, anyone who looked at this blog yesterday knows that.

2)I am the same person when I'm blogging that I am if you met me in real life.

3)I am very insecure. I'll leave out the part about being fat and not very good looking.

4)I love watching MASH. I have the complete set on DVD but still will watch it if I have the television on when it's on.

5)I enjoy making new friends through my blogs, even if they tag me for these stupid memes. Just kidding Bella.

6)I also enjoy the non blogging friends I have who give me encouragement regarding my blogs.

7)On my 21st birthday, I went around to the liquor stores to buy some spirits, just so they would card me and wish me a happy birthday(like on the Stroh's commercials running at that time.) I also went out after work that night, mixed my drinks and got sick instead of drunk.

Now I will tag Sindi, Jessica, Stacy, Pilgrim, Curmudgeon, Pat J., and Kathy(not Mrs74WIXYgrad). There are times like these I wish others had blogs. Yeah I mean you.

Actually I watch MASH on Hallmark channel.
TV Land is a frequent stop. But when I have control of the remote when MASH isn't on, I watch very little. Maybe NASCAR on theweekend.

Hi WIXY
My husband is a fan of MASH and strangely my first ever boyfriend was too.Maybe I have similar taste in men and in blogging friends too!!!
I am addicted to Golden girls and Designing women

Thanks for tagging me. I will try to do this one if I have the time. I think they are fun because you can get to know your blogger friends.

1. I am a big kid on my birthday too. The only bad side is I always get my feeling hurt and cry. This year was good, I only cried for an hour.

2.I am not the same person on blogger then in real life. I am very shy when it comes to meeting new people in pubic,but I am working on it.

3. Every one is insecure about themselves. We are all just how God made us and if we could just learn to live with that fact we would all be better off.

4. Ok, My Uncle never allowed anything on TV but Mash, so I think I have seen about every one ever made. They are ok:)
Nascar is great but it was better when Dale Sr. was still alive.

5. I love to meet new people too. You can never have to many friends.

6.I like my nonblogger friends too, if you did not have friends out side of blogger ones then you would be stuck talking only to nuts like me:) HE HE HE

OK I better shut up or I will be driving you crazy. Bye:)

I'm impressed that you followed through with the tag! Now it wasn't that bad, was it???

I remember as a kid trying so hard to get into MASH, but I could never do it. I wonder if I were to watch it now, as an adult, if it would be better...

:) Bella

This is also my second hit on this and incidently that was the only time I ever responded to a meme (I think). The first tag came from a blogging friend across the pond, Sian. Because you are a friend, I will follow thorugh with your request.

Second Effort is little more than random things already.... but let me cogitate on this some and we'll see....

Post 800: Time to chat

Hi Guys, It's hard to believe that this is post number 800 for this blog. I started this blog out of my desire to communicate. Since radio and television is becoming more and more automated and less and less personal, I'm glad I made the decision to go in this direction as it has given me many blessings. When I first decided to write my musings, a friend from the radio and television boards who goes by the name of newsnomore, told me not to be discouraged if I didn't get any readers. The fact that I did in the early going made me surprised and grateful that anyone was enjoying what I wrote. I've had people tell me that maybe it wasn't meant for me to ever be in radio, that maybe my calling was blogging. Nowadays I think blogging makes for better two way conversation than terrestrial radio, especially the way I do it, non confrontational. The closest I come from any confrontation is the innocent digs that Pat and I shoot at each other. On an average day I get betwee...

From a "Battleground State"

I am going to make this one short and sweet. I live in Ohio, in this election season, one of the so called "Battleground states," a state crucial for any candidate presidential hopes. Of course we have had many visits from presidential and vice presidential candidates. Other blogs have dissected both campaigns so I will not. The only questions I have is will the promises made by either of these candidates exclusive to these states be fulfilled, or will they prove only to be hot air?

My job

I have worked at my company for, unofficially, 17 years. When I first started working there in June, 1992, the average work week was 55-57 hours. Sometimes you worked more than that. I was 36 years old at the time and I could handle the long hours and short nights of sleep. 17 years and three knee surgeries later, I need less hours work and more hours sleep. Even moving into a quasi desk job, I still find it difficult to crawl out of bed at 3am. I could get up later if I wanted to put up with both rush hours. But this morning, things will change slightly. I received a call from my department manager yesterday. I was notified that I had to cut my time down to 40 hours. This would be down from 44-45 that I normally work. No surprise there as all the other departments got notified before I was. And I had to split my time between plants, doing calibrations at the other shop 1-1/2 days a week. I'm actually looking forward to the change. I also like the prospect of getting an hour extra...
