  Grammy recap...
So I managed to finally stay awake and watch the entirety of the Grammys last night for the very first time.  That was a shock.  Especially as I was receiving a reminder that when you open a bottle of wine, make sure you drink it within a week of opening.  Oh, and don’t ever mix red wine and sushi…they don’t always go the best.  LOL

LOL....you got my HNT on Tuesday (see; it still works!) Okay...correct me if I am wrong, but weren't the Emmys for Television? I thought the movies were the Academy Awards which were last month. Hmm...
 
Yeah. I suppose I can. :-) And how could you forget Tuesday's pic? I am shocked you don't have it saved, handy for easy retrieval! LOL

Randomness...the true order of the world.

"A prudent man will think more important what fate has conceded to him, than what it has denied." ~ Baltasar Gracian (1601-1658) Spanish Philosopher

Travel the world in one day, rest your legs beside the sea; hope the people that you meet, will friends forever be. Okay..so that was a little random. But so is life. You never know when all the luck is going your way, or if the rabbit's foot is going to turn bad. I haven't been around the world, except in my reading and movies. I stay outta politics, prefering to be neutral territory. Friends who are in trouble come to see me; when I get into trouble, I stay retreated into secrecy. But I make time for all of it. I believe strongly in being yourself...that is the only way that you will truly be happy. Do what is right for you, you can only live life once. Don't get lost in the depths of my mind....
