Thanks to all who participated in my new "three things" game. I think I'm going to make that a tradition. I really like it! So....post your three things in the comments!!Three Things
I got this one directly from Michele's site and since I want to see if anyone else's answer is as embarrassing as mine, here goes...
"What 3 celebrities did you have a crush on as a child and did you have posters of them in your room?"
I'm going to totally embarrass myself here and give my answers:
(1) Donnie from NKOTB (gross!) and yes on the poster
(2) Kirk Cameron - had the poster - kissed it every night before I went to sleep
(3) Joey from NKOTB (gross again!) no poster though
I used to beg my parents to buy me those little teen magazines at the grocery store that had pull out posters so that I could make my very own "hot guy wallpaper". How sad is that?
Fellow Blogger of the day:
I really dig Carrie's site. So today's her day! Stop by and say hello and tell her that I sent ya!!
Father's Day
I decided to call my dad and LuckyHuband's dad and invite them over Saturday for burgers and Father's Day festivities. I'm kind of excited, but that means that I'll have to clean. What was I thinking???
Funny News Story
I read a hilarious news story today about a bad guy who really got what he deserved from a group of women. Please, please, read the story. You'll thank me later. This actually happened in a town not that far from here.
Guest Blogging
I am going to be a guest blogger at another site in the next week. When I post, I'll let you all know so that you can check it out!!
My soldier pen-pal
If you want to send a message to a soldier who desperately needs it, type it in the comments and I'll print it out to send to him. I'm sure he'll appreciate it.
Interviews
My offer is still open. I have a few of you who took me up on it, so I'll be getting to those hopefully by tomorrow. It's still not too late, so put Interview Me in the comments and I will!!
Funny Story
My cousin Hooker went to the funeral home for a classmate whose grandfather had suddenly passed away. (Poor kid can't get away from funeral homes!) The classmate's uncle had also passed away within 24 hours of her grandfather. Well, the uncle's visitation was Tuesday and the grandfather's was Wednesday. The classmate wasn't that close to the uncle at all. So, Hooker gets confused (not unusual) and goes to teh funeral home on Tuesday. She walks in and really doesn't recognize anyone and asked where the classmate was. They told her that she had went home and then Hooker asked if her parents were there and they replied that they had gone home too. The family looked at Hooker like she was crazy and she visited with a few people that she knew and then went home. The next day around lunch she realized her mistake. Good thing that it was kind of the same family there and she didn't totally make a fool of herself! Poor kid!
Well, that's all I've got for today! If you are new, sign my guestbook so I can check out your blog too!!!

Melissa-Mom to LittleMan (4/04); wife to LuckyHusband; full-time toxicologist; full-time housekeeper; full-time domestic laundromat manager (washes all the clothes); full-time domestic finance manager (pays all the bills and yells at husband for spending too much money on fishing stuff); and Keeper of the Cheerios. Lives in a tiny town; spends tons of time with family; reads; enjoys crafts. Can change a diaper, fill a sippy cup, and put on a toddler's shoes in 15.4 seconds flat, all while calculating the impact of petroleum hydrocarbons to a nearby surface water body (watch for me in the Toddler Olympics on CBS this fall). Addicted to Dr. Pepper; Kit Kats; and pasta. To spot me in a crowd: I'm the one with frizzy messed-up hair, smeared graham crackers on my shirt; huge purse with a diaper peeking out, toddler on her hip, and camera in hand at all times.
