Im Addicted

Social Networking~ Are you Addicted?

Everyone seems to be doing it.

You are doing it…because yes…you have got caught up in it…

Whether you are working in an office…

….waiting tables at a busy restaurant…

or at a stop light somewhere in your city!

You are updating your status or checking on someone else’s status!

You are either doing it for fun or are doing it to make some money!

Social Networking is not just for the computer geeks and nerds.

…Nope, it is for all of us!

We are of all ages…even my mother is now on Face Book!

So, from teenagers to Senior Citizens, we can be found updating somewhere at sometime…

On the throne, on the couch, in the car, in the elevator, in the grocery store, in church, while we run, bike, camp…oh yes, we update everywhere.!

Even celebrities, update on the red carpet, while they are in the studio, while they are eating dinner…

There is even this guy who sits with his grandfather and Tweets S##T, his grandfather says!

~~~~~~

Year’s ago My Space was the biggest trend for our teenagers and then it seemed all ages seemed to be utilizing the website for connecting with others, advertising or blogging.

Interesting fact…..Blogging…hum? Seems that shouldn’t come up in red or in my spell check, considering how popular the word is today…

Maybe it will be a new word for 2010.

So, when I finally decided to get a MySpace, I was informed by my teenager that I was too old!…to have a Myspace and that it was embarrassing for her!

Nevertheless, I did create a profile….

The next social networking sight I found was Netlog.com.

Which I soon discovered was a “lets see how many people I can flirt with or hook up with! The content there did not appeal to me.

Then, last year sometime a friend of mine told me to find her on FaceBook.

I honestly didn’t know what she was talking about, but my curiosity got the best of me and I logged on to create a profile.

…I soon became addicted

…and then last Spring my daughter told me about Twitter.

Well, that was 800 followers ago! And before Wine Glass Girl was created!

Interesting Fact ~A professional blogger found me on Twitter and noticed that I had a knack with words and well…..

….this is the rest of the story.

Social Networking has changed my life in so many ways.

I have been reunited with friends that I have met over the years of my life.

…And the friendships I have made with via Twitter and Facebook are some of the most special people, I have ever met.

Well…I haven’t really met them…but I can see their heart in their words and there a few extra special friends…that I have been blessed to hear the warmth and passion in their voices.

So I’ am thankful for social networking for giving me this chance to share with others.

The addiction is controllable for now but I do foresee in the future a possible stay in Rehab for TwitterHolics and FaceBook addicts’.

I apologize to my family if I am addicted. Countless hours updating and checking out profiles, uploading pictures, is this a trend, I hope not.

In the meantime…In the Entertainment world….

I hear there is a movie being made about social networking and I also found this talented artist that has given us a song about our social networking addictions! So click on Kelley James name and check out his music, Im sure he will become a huge hit with this song!

Happy New Years Everyone!

Make sure update your status before you drink too much!

Cheers!

RIP Brittany Murphy~Fallin Stars

Monday, December 28th, 2009

“Falling Stars”

Is it me or are the “stars” of Hollywood dropping like flies this year? Since it seems the death of these little balls of light seem to be predominately drug related, I’m REALLY wondering when these people will wake up, roll over and say, “WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING TO MYSELF (& MY LOVED ONES)!?!?” Derrrr

Here is a list of some of the most popular ones:
-Brittany Murphy: the one that made me the saddest
-Michael Jackson: the one that didn’t phase me
-Bea Arthur: the one that didn’t suprise me
-Farrah Faucet: the one that touched me
-Patrick Swayze: the one that also didn’t phase me
and
-Adam Goldstein: the one that REALLY pissed me off

With only FIVE WHOLE days left until we ring in 2010, I really hope Brittany is the last. I’m not holding my breath though……

RIP Brittany Murphy, i loved you dearly as every single commercial, small role, voice over and leading lady……

Happy Birthday John Mayer

Friday, October 16th, 2009

Random Thoughts about today October 16, 2009

…I was sitting in my wonderful office with nothing but the hum of the computer and some KBON on the radio, playing some old classic country tunes.
And the peace and quiet of the day took a grip of my thinking cap and I begin thinking about the article I wanted to work on.
For some odd reason I was thinking about today being John Mayer’s birthday and wondering how old he was.

…That thinking triggered me thinking about what was going this month many years ago today?
So here are some interesting facts I came up with.

100 years ago….Sigmeud Freud Psychoanalysis of Dreams is published – and oh gosh as soon as I read that, it reminded me of my ex-husband, I can hear him in the real world psychoanalyzing all my actions and words said

…the over torture of analyzing makes you feel like you have to come up with something that you did do wrong…and then be sorry for it…

I know there is a lot of truth to what he taught…Im talking about Freud not my ex.
Gosh if my dreams were to be analyzed I cant imagine what Freud would have said…

100 years ago World Series 7 Tiger and Pirates were playing….do those teams even exist anymore?

But then did you know 10 years ago in October, the World Series was delayed by 10 days because of Loma Preieta Earthquake that killed 67 people in Northern California, it measured a 7.1!
The Dow had a mini crash on Friday the 13th 10 years ago,
… Odd day, coincidence…We Americans say Friday the 13th is a freaky, bad luck day…but guess what? I met my now husband on Friday the 13th on a blind date! And yes we are still married. Oh yes he’s number 2.
So I read a Russian News Agency claimed a UFO flew into their territory 10 years ago…
Do they even talk about UFO’s these days? Let alone, have won show up in Russia?

So…10 years ago October 1999 The Eurhythmics release first album in 10 years “Peace”

and
So today, we send a Happy Birthday to the adorable and talented John C Mayer born October 16 and who cares what year?
He also shares his birthday with some wild guy called Flea and Suzanne Somers.

In the news today….October 16, 2009

As he will be known, The Balloon Boy, had his first interview.

Father (Scientist) left his project available to his son outside. Son gets curious and jumps in homemade air balloon and BAM takes off into the sky.

The family, media, Military, news crews galore, follow the little man all over the town, when it finally lands…Hours later…Uh Oh…no son!

Wonder if that pebble looking thing that fell out of the air balloon basket along the way was their son!
The Social Media Networking World made Balloon Boy the most trendy topic of the day.!

Meanwhile, hours later, back at home trying to figure out where there son was.
A police woman and dog found the little boy in his attic!

Where he was hiding from his dad….duh…cause he knew he would be in trouble for playing with the air balloon…
So….By the time you read this, a movie I’m sure will be in the making.
And today you can make your own history…

Kanye West is a jerk!!!

REACTIONS FROM KANYE WEST JERK MOMENT

Little Miss Red Head Says:
Topic of the Week:
Kanye West is a jerk!!!!!!!

What Kanye West did to Taylor Swift is just him wanting to be a jerk and wanting attention.!

I think that he should have made a LIVE apology!

If I were Taylor Swift,…..
I would have cried on the spot because of what he said!

…He was a jerk and should of kept his opinion to himself!

Taylor Swift clearly won this award fair and square!

…………… and he was a big dummy for his actions and Beyonce…….

She handled his actions really well…….. by letting Taylor make her Thank You Speech

I <3 you Taylor!

MTV VMA’s Random Thoughts 2009

MTV’s VMA’s Award Night

Well my husband decided to cook gumbo Sunday evening and so I thought it would be nice to invite some guest over.

Well, not only did the food make a hit but I got to offer my company some of the most outstanding and outrageous entertainment in history….

We tuned in to the VMA’s Video Music Awards put on by MTV, which should really be…Music Video Awards…

But that’s not my call so…

The guest we had at our home consisted a few neighbors that are like family and my husbands mother and partner and another female couple.

All age groups involved…in watching the VMA’s.

Comments were everything from, how awesome, awe, I remember when…oh my gosh…

And a few times we turned the sound off, when the rappers that were playing outdoors came on…

we just aren’t into that type of music….especially when the elders are around…

So… to sum up what I thought about Sundays, VMA Awards, and most definitely, while I was holding a glass of wine for my little dinner party this is what I came up with.

I happened to see the tennis match when Serena Williams lost her cool and was slammed for her outburst….

I remembered seeing the news footage about that Senator from South Carolina Joe Wilson and his outburst this week…

Then the outburst, outrageous conduct Kanye West gave a very large audience!

What ever happened to good ole respect and having composure? Didn’t your mama teach you better?

It appears like so many outbursts on going on lately…

I love that we have the honest American system of freedom of speech and I actually am guilty of some crazy outburst at times…

But seriously… in front of millions of people!…Using that outburst in an ugly disrespectful way… is just unacceptable…

I cant help but wonder if Kanye West was naughty as a young boy?

…Was Kanye’s mama or daddy around when he was growing up? I’m sure someone had to teach him to mind his manners at some point in his life.

If I had ever done anything like that my daddy would have whipped out his belt and got my booty! I sure got the paddle in school for being sassy.

But for the highlights of the show I give big Kudos for

Madonna’s opening speech of the VMA Awards, about Michael Jackson.

Madonna…had my whole house so quiet, couldn’t even hear a pin drop! And that never happens…

Her speech was so honest and real, its like we could see her heart.

The women sure had all the signs of class, elegance and grace!

It was very evident…as Taylor Swift kept her composure as Kayne West acted the fool, saying Beyonce had the best video of the year! Like that was supposed to impress someone? How old are you boy?

I believe it gave Taylor the drive to give that awesome performance on the subway train…

And uh…how old is Taylor Swift?

The heroin of the night Ms. Beyonce! Opened up her heart and gave Taylor Swift a chance without interruption to give thanks for her award. The sweet hugs shared between the two of them both dressed in red was touching.

Incredible performance by the talented Pink

….although somewhat naked to some eyes…I thought the beauty and artful way her body was adorned for her magical performance was beautiful.

I thought for a moment it was Mardi Gras because some lady I had never seen before kept wearing different Mardi Gras Mask.

I found out that she is Lady GaGa.

It was kinda cool until she wore a very unique mask like thing that looked kinda like a hay patch or birds nest thing that circled her whole face.

Her name is funny also…

I started to think…

When we are babies, the first sounds that come out our mouth are gaga… but if you Google GAGA…ha ha it means silly, crazy, senile, and in French means ole fool…??

Such a beautiful lady to cover all the unique facial gifts she has…

Her performance hit me cold…with the blood dripping all over the place…

…I just kept thinking that maybe since the master of ceremony Russell Brand kept mentioning that Robert Pattison was in the house… I thought maybe he was trying to give us a hint that Edward had finally gone for beef!

So, that’s some of the highlights I remember…from the VMA’s this year…I actually think it’s the first time I watched the entire show.

It was very entertaining and to say the least a lot to remember for years to come.

I hope that we all can learn a lesson from the outburst of negativity from this past week. That yes the media does go a bit overboard but we all need to respect each other…

Just love everybody…that’s it…it’s easy. Give it a try.

Howard Stern

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

Oh my Gosh…I know its a random thing that just hit me but OH MY GOSH…how in the world is that man still making the news.

Have you ever seen him? Its not just his looks but dear goodness the way women allow him to humiliate themselves. So vulgar and perverse!

I remember when I was married (the first one) and he would watch that at night time…I would get so offended. I would get so mad, I would storm off and pout.

This guy is so grotesque..there ain’t nothing beautiful about him what so ever and he has made a fortune from it…and the horrible things that come off his tongue!

And he is in the news again!

I remember when I was going through a self journey in deepening my christian faith…I purposely would pray for him every day…..I guess I stopped along the way or God must have another plan for him.

Anyways….I saw him on the tube the other night and now I see he is one of the most top searched subjects on AOL…

Arggg…So it just hit a button in me to ramble about this.

What happened to the good ole guy making the impressions and being role models for our children…and us for that mattter!!!

Oh well…Is this why we drink?

Remember Michael Jackson

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

Many years ago when I was a young child I remember this cool group of brothers singing on this show….I think it was American Bandstand.

They must have been really cool to me cuz I kept watching them

…I remember the song they were singing was “Rockin Robin”

…Around that same time me and all my girlfriends were into all those hand clapping games and we had one that went to “Rockin Robin!”

That was the Jackson Five,and they gave us Michael Jackson and in return Michael Jackson gave us alot to remember him for and alot to thank him for.

Thank you Michael Jackson for showing us that its cool to wear one white glove and hi-water cuffed pants with white socks and penny loafers.

Thank you Michael Jackson for teaching us to moon walk, which I’m still trying to learn.

Thank you for trying to show us that it doesn’t matter what color you are and it doesn’t matter what color you try to be.

Odd that it appears ok for white people to spend thousands maybe millions of dollars on spray tans or tanning beds or endless hours of baking in the sun….Just to become a deep dark brown….and possibly wind up with skin cancer down the road.

…But yet it didn’t appear ok for Michael Jackson to become lighter? A bit hypercritical HUH?

Thanks Michael for showing us that plastic surgery is not always necessary.

Thank you Michael for showing us that you have a big heart and all you wanted to do in life was to have fun, love, give and entertain.

For all the Michael Jackson Fans who are out there alive today…We are lucky to have lived a life time with such a gift of knowing Michael Jackson.

In my life time I have already lost 3 big icons of my era.

Always wanted her hair and still do…once our angel on earth and now in heaven… Farrah Fawcett

That loud announcer to a show I didnt get to watch as a child but enjoyed as an adult…Ed McMahon

and now a wonderful entertainer of my lifetime Michael Jackson…

May we all remember the great things in life that made us smile when we heard their voices or saw their faces.

Wonder what entertainers will bless our children and who they will see pass on in their lifetime.

Good Bye for now Michael Jackson, hope you and Elvis are enjoying the party or are the life of the party!
