So, we're talking about it...
…”it” being that one thing I’ve avoided for the past 30 plus years beyond a full body cavity search.
That’s right, folks: Marital discussions between Aleryl.
((Let the cray-cray begin!!))
For the past several months, potential hubs has been making a point to discuss it with me VERY seriously: Where we want to do it. How we want to do it. What kind of ring...
Yet more "Kids Say the Darndest Things" fun...
Student: Miss Sheryl, you know what?
Sheryl: What?
Student: If you drink too much beer and wine, you can get the cops called on you.
Sheryl: Errr, oh really?
Student: Yeah, that happened to my uncle last week. He drank too much beer and wine and then he scared the neighbors.
Sheryl: Oh dear. Well, let's hope he gets some help. ((as Sheryl thinks to herself, "Hmmm...he kinda sounds like several ex'es of mine..."))
I'M FINISHED!!! ((insert crazed Daniel Plainview...
I don’t even care that it’s gaudy beyond belief. I’m just so thrilled it’s finally DONE that I could tap dance myself all the way to Margaritaville and back. And now off to gloat in relief and dream of cheeseburgers in paradise…
"The Five Knuckled Shuffle" (!!!!!)
I actually learned this new euphemism today in my Special Education class, of all the random places. Our professor used this term while warning us of one of the potential job hazards faced should you work with high schoolers in Special Ed. And although I love that professor, is she supposed to be regularly scaring us away from this entire profession?! ;)
Uh, so about that "beer wench" costume...
…it arrived today. I tried it on with much difficulty and annoyance. And unfortunately, those lil’ booty shorts gave me a giant cameltoe and the attached lederhosen was extra floppy! Also, I felt trashier than a Hooters waitress in the thing. I could probably get away with it if I were 23 and not 33. Of course, Al loved it. But even he knew there’s no way in Hades I was going to...
I’m so sorry I once blogged about how sorry I was for not posting in a while because I was so busy, guys.
Ferociousness at the Feline Fete!
So what sort of silliness did I get into Monday night? The kind that involves a female-only party filled with the usual cupcake-strewn, complimentary make-up applying, wine-drenched madness that only something titled “Feline Fete” could easily provide! It helped that Mizz Liz once again threw the faboosh affair at her equally fabulous home, complete with a DJ and silent auction to...
It’s true that we don’t know what we’ve got until we lose it,...
A Birthday Tribute to Big Al!
Because if I haven’t gushed and embarrassed the old boy enough around here, why not add a few well-intentioned jabs to his fabulous self in the spirit of fun, right?
So he’s officially 49 years young now, folks. He can take the ribbing! Therefore these are a few of my fave vintage Alster pics from the time machine:
Seriously, how adorable is toddler Al? I could just eat him up!!!...
ARGHHH!!!! ((thoughts on NY Fashion Week folks))
Listen, I’d love to be there as much as anyone else. I’d give anything to be hitting up the front row of the best shows with THE Lady Wintour, toasting champers with B/C- List celebs backstage, and getting to meet all the fabulosity designers and then some myself. And a few of those fun little afterparties wouldn’t hurt either.
But seriously, it’s getting to be like...
Unless its mad, passionate, extraordinary love, it’s a waste of your time. There...
– Damn straight.
Darned tootin!

What I gladly gulped down while in Savannah, GA:
…just because I know you all are riveted by my endlessly ravishing food posts here((snort!)):
We smacked our lips with delight over bubbles, mussels and fabulous frittes, courtesy of Broughton & Bull our first night.
And then it was yet more brews at Moon River Brewery and some other random tucked-in little pub((in which we watched this hilariously early 80’s Val Kilmer...
Don’t underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along, listening...
