F' IKE....

Rules, smules....
Of course I know there are rules to posting, like, post everyday, post every other day etc. Yes, I should have "called" and told y'all that I was leaving for a few days to North Carolina, but I just probably didn't give a F. (plus, I don't even know if anyone has even read any of this stuff) I did think about it, but with the hurricane, packing for myself and the kids, I really didn't have enough time. Come to think of it, I did try to set up the mobile blog thingy, but they never sent me the code. I did plan on blogging while I was gone, but I was having a good ole time and probably would have forgotten anyway.

Hightimes in Highpoint.....
I had a great time in Greensboro, HARD at work, studying my ass off for my TEST. We went to Boone, NC, the last day I was there and was delighted to find out that it was home to Appalachain State University! Since I live in Michigan and we are a MSU family, I thought it would be great to bring home some ASU swag to wear around town. Holy S*&t! For y'all that don't know, ASU beat U of M in their season opener last year and I LOVED it! Not because I'm such a State fan, but because I love that the underdog won! Those were GOOD TIMES!

I want to thank all that served before,and all that will protect our country in the future....   Especially those that gave their lives.    My hero- Marine Lance Cpl. Scott E. Dougherty   Died July 6, 2004 serving during Operation Iraqi Freedom My nephew, Scott Dougherty, 20 of Bradenton, Fl. was killed July 6,2004, when his Humvee struck a tank mine in Anbar province, Iraq. His Humvee ran over a tank mine, flipped over a ravine and exploded. He was a proud Marine in the 2nd Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, 2nd Marine Division, II Marine Expeditionary Force at Camp Lejeune, N.C. He was fun loving kid with a great sense of humor. He always knew how to make everybody smile. He wasn’t a big guy but he made up for with physical training & a great attitude. He joined ROTC in high school and enlisted in the Marines in 2002 after graduating. He was just two days out of combat training when he was deployed to Iraq for five months. He was three months i...

On Set.... Detroit 187-How I got invited to the Wrap party.....

Image
courtesy of ABC                    I have to say, I am dying to tell you all the juicy details of the wrap party for Detroit 187. First of all you need a little background on how I even was invited. For the last year or so I've been a doing a little "acting". I don't think I can call myself an actress, but I have been paid for lines in a movie so maybe I am.  My significant other is on the show since the first episode and he kept bugging me to become a uniform police woman, which is a recurring role (and pays more). Finally with only 6 episodes to film, I said yes. Of course, everytime we got an availablity check from RealStyle (our extras casting agency), we put in for the same days. It seemed like we were never going to work together.               My first gig on set was hilarious and totally embarrassing (at least to me). First thing I had to do was check in, then go s...

National Lampoon's Federal Vacation: Still Searching for Mr. Mojito…

Image
                                                     Still Searchin..... Old Alexandria Photo by Hope  It does seem like my whole trip to Washington was nothing but mojito’s, though I did spend a couple days doing the “tourist” thing. I took the Metro to Alexandria one day, in my “cute” shoes and made it about 5 blocks before I had to sit down and have a refreshment.  The shops were impossibly cute, but definitely not cheap.  Of course as I waited for The Metro, low and behold the Amtrak rolls by. Seriously??? I am forever traumatized. Why did I take The Metro? Because I "thought" it was an underground train. I was wrong, it goes above ground after awhile. Great. Another photo by Hope By the time we left all I wanted to do was kick my shoes off and go to sleep.  The next day I even did the double-decker bus tour around D.C....
