THIS IS A TEST.....THIS IS ONLY A TEST

"....Had this been a real [post] the title would have been more descriptive."

I am trying to learn some new blogging tricks and helping my sister get hers up and running as well, so this is just a couple of random pictures to attempt to insert a slide show into a post.

I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Thinking that I had actually updated my blog with an actual post. Be patient though (it is a virtue). I will try to get some more postings up shortly.

Thanks Ann Marie!

Okay,
"I get by, with a little help from my friends...."

Thanks to the help of a fabulous friend, the counter is officially up and running in the sidebar. Hooray!

Mediterranean Cruise Countdown

This is a countdown for my cruise, but who's counting? Ü Well, I am!

It is driving me crazy that I can't figure out how to get this "widget" into my sidebar, so for now, it is going to live in this post.

Okay.....so after typing in this description, the countdown got all messed up, so it is in a different post. Arrrrghhhh!

"YOU'VE GOT MAIL"

Personally, I love this movie! Who didn't want so badly for Joe Fox & Kathleen Kelly to end up together in the end. Who knew that "shopgirl" and "ny152" would live happily ever after?
I have to admit that I was watching this movie recently and was remembering how much I love the ending. So, just before they are supposed to meet in the park, he walks her back to her apt and says:
"What if you hadn't been the Shop Around the Corner & I hadn't been Fox Books? I would have asked for you number. And I wouldn't have been able to wait an hour before calling you."
Then as she is waiting in the park and she realizes that Joe Fox is "ny152," she just starts crying and says, "I wanted it to be you so bad." and then they start to kiss........how cute is that!
I was bawling! And for those of you that know me.......I DON'T cry. I have decided that I can't watch chic flicks any more. They make me tooo sad.
I do understand that this is a movie and the fact that they fall in love and end up together was written in the script, but with that said.........
I have several friends that at the present time are trying to convince me that I should be doing the online dating thing. I did try this several years ago for a little over a year and due to several interesting experiences decided it wasn't for me.
Having cracked under the peer pressure I have begun to "dabble" once again. Here's hoping for my happily ever after, or at least to avoid any major psychos.
Maybe if I hurry and find me a nice boy (or a nice boy finds me) through conventional dating methods, I can stop with the modern day match-making (aka Internet Dating). Nothing would thrill me more!
