Haven't blogged in a while

No... I haven't blogged in a while. I've been very busy. I've been learning to quilt. Trying to read 10 books a year (I've already read three this year: Slam!, Uncharted TerriTORI, Tales of a Bollywood Love Theif). I've been knitting a lot to try and get my etsy store launched. AND, I started an event planning business with my friend. So... I've been busy. I just need to incorporate blogging into that stuff. Oh, I also started a blog about my event business and I did write a couple of blogs for that. I also started up a mommyblog that kinda goes with my event planning business. I guess I just feel the need to justify myself.

I'm also trying to figure out this twitter-thang. It's really confusing to me. I just don't know why anyone would subscribe to my tweets. I am witty and occasionally have something to say in 160 characters or less, but not that often. It's fun to follow celebrities and get to see into their lives. Anyway... if anyone knows how to do that tweeting, let me know what to do.

Thanks!

Green Comes Alive

Okay, so... I'm a grown ass woman, as Oprah said on her show, but I still get all tingly when I think about Shaun Cassidy, Leif Garret, David Cassidy, Peter Frampton, etc...
I was that girl that was boyCRAZY. It's insane that I still get that giddy feeling when I see my idols on stage, on TV or whatever. I love that I can still feel that way. Those intense, teenage (and much pre-teen) feelings of admiration for the tame crushes of my past. I can't wait for Penelope to find her first idol. You never forget your first loves and they really stay with you. I love that at age 37, I can turn on Oprah and can remember exactly how I felt at age 6.

I remember being about five years old and dancing around my house to Barry Manilow. I loved the record jacket because he was sitting with a dog - a beagle. His shirt said I <3 dogs. I just loved it. After Barry, I became obsessed with Peter Frampton and the BeeGees. I listened to the Sgt. Pepper's album everyday and loved to look at the fold-out record jacket.

Peter Frampton is coming up next on Oprah, and I just can't wait... Gotta go! Show me the way, baby!
