Ok- you know you haven’t written a blog when you sign in to wordpress and your dashboard is way different than what it used to be and you can’t figure out how to start writing a new post!!!
I know- shame on me….it’s been a while. but you know things get crazy here at the radio ranch and sadly thats when the blog gets ignored. I’m sorry for negelecting it and the 27 people that check it everyday to see if anything is new. I hope you will forgive me!
I even had a list of topics that I’ve been wanting to blog about but didn’t have any time to do so!! So I think in effort to make up for that time…another random blog is in order! It’s only fitting to round out the year with I think (Happy New Years Eve btw!)
first- from the list….the new james bond movie Quantum of Solace.

I loved Daniel Craig and his beautiful blue eyes, and of course all the action and scenes of italy and other foreign places….but they forgot the designer dresses for the bond girls! It’s one of the few girly moments I look forward to in those movies and it wasn’t there. Sad face for me. So dear producers of future new James Bond Movies….please do not cut designer dresses for bond girls out of the budget to make room for the newest model of Mercedes or whatever car you want your male audience to get a car-gasm over. they are one of the essential elements. Thank you!
next- Folks that mis-spell Sara(h). It’s one of those things that grinds my gears. OK- I understand if you don’t know me or don’t have a reference to check and see if my name is spelled with an h or not. But goodness! If you know someone that’s got a name that can be spelled in many ways please ask them how to spell it! and if you can please remember that spelling for future reference! It just annoys me when people have a reference, like something I signed or documents that have my name spelled correctly and then go misspell it anyway. Just be courtious. Ok- mini rant stopped.
A must need for every womans life…something sparkly. and no I’m not talking about just diamonds. yes those are sparkly but there are cheaper ways to bling without spending the money. My favorite sparkly thing right now are my new Chuck taylors that I got for Christmas!!! Yes you heard me!

They are perfect for a punk rock princess such as me!
And Lastly…..Twilight. yes. I just finished book 1 of the series. and I have some interesting thoughts about this. We have been debating this book in our free moments here at QMIX….with BG not being super crazy about the book but still likes reading it anyway (she calls it “word crack” because it’s so addicting) and then there’s Nikki G who is obsessed with the series and would marry Robert Pattinson in a heartbeat if he wore the vampire paint everyday. (sorry if that is an exaggeration, but you did just inform me over the cubicle wall that he got a new haircut and looked really hot….nuff said…don’t worry i’m not judging)

As for myself….I think I’m in the middle. First- the book is way better than the movie. I agree with Nikki in that Rob is the most redeeming quality of the film. I saw it before reading the book and saw all the potential in the story of it being a really good film….but it wasn’t. I’m sorry. Stephenie Meyer- please hire a better movie crew for your next one. oh and hire someone else to play BELLA! like me! because I could do a better job with the little acting experience I had in high school than she ever could! blah!! it made me sick!
ok- enough about the movie. as for the book- it was fun to read. there were moments I wanted to gag, but then I had the moments too when I reverted to being a middle school awkward girl wishing a boy would look at me the way Edward did Bella…..
And with that said….Warning to all the tweens and teens out there who are creating all these expectations of boys to be that of Edward Cullen…..Please stop!! No boy especially at your age will be as thoughtful as Edward Cullen. You will be lucky if you find one with 20% of that sweetness. Remember- Edward has been 17 for 90 years….he’s taken notes! and he’s a freakin vampire!!! he could eat your face!! so stop. that’s all I ask. and I’m only saying this because if this book was out when I was a tween I would be greatful if someone told me to stop putting expectations like that on boys…because I so would have! haha!
So there ya have it. a very random blog to wrap up 2008. Maybe I’ll make a resolution to blog more? haha.
Have a great day and a safe New Years Eve! Keep it Rockin!
