Am I a closet packrat?

Everyone knows me knows that I love to organize EVERYTHING. But I have a secret. I am unorganized in a certain part of my life. Get ready folks.

Pictures.

I have a couple boxes of old pictures that are divided up into lovely sections that have been around even before I got married, and I only have one real photo album besides my wedding album (which I rarely look at). But the majority of the pictures that have been printed since our wedding are literally shoved in a drawer in my hutch. Just thinking about it makes me cringe! Okay, I'll clean that out this weekend. I'll just put it on my to do list.

So, when we got ourselves a digital camera in December of 2006, I thought my problem would be solved. Oh no, not even close. I think my first problem is that I only download a couple pictures at a time, and that's only to put them on myspace, facebook, or this silly blog. I've only ever taken the pictures off of my camera and onto my computer twice. I have a "hard copy" of these pictures somewhere, but they do me no good if they are not in any order. I also only print out picture one at a time, and that's usually to send to Grandma Bonnie or Aunt JoJo. That doesn't help, either.

I really am embarrassed about this problem I have, since I don't even have that many pictures. I have two folders on my computer, one that is named 2007 and the other is 2008. That is pretty pathetic, if you ask me. I need to figure out a system to get all of my digital pictures organized so that I can find what I need easily.

Jason Parks had just helped me download my 2008 pictures on to the computer a couple of weeks ago , and my camera suddenly died. It has an irreversible "lens error." Jason and I don't need, or want anything fancy, but we do need to get this picture situation under control before we buy a new camera and do the same thing.

Do any of you guys have any suggestions on how to get me started? I need some assistance in this area of my life. I think that most of the problem is that I don't want to sit in front of my computer for more than an hour to do it. I don't even know how to create folders, rename pictures, and do all that hard stuff.

Computers!!!! I don't like them!

And no, I'm not getting rid of my wooden leg.

I'm gonna puke.

As I was watching The Grammy's last night, I couldn't help thinking that Lil' Wayne and Flavor Flav have to be related. Do you see a slight resemblance, or is it just me? I think Lil' Wayne might be Flavor Flav's long lost son.

How in the world are people like this rich and famous? Who would pay money to see these people perform?

A couple of nights ago I saw a Katie Couric interview
( I could only stand to watch about 30 seconds) with Lil Wayne. He is the most disgusting person I've seen on TV in a really long time. He is SUPER conceited, and his tattoos make me want to throw up. At least Flavor Flav is somewhat entertaining, but they are both pretty nasty.

There is no reason in the world that people like this should be making as much money as these two guys.

They make me sick.

Buy Two, Get One Free!

Last November I bought 2 Maidenform bras. There was a special tag on the bra that said, "Buy 2, Get One Free." I pulled the tag off, made a copy of my receipt, wrote my check for $6.95, and waited.

What do you think I got in the mail yesterday? Oh, yeah, my FREE bra.
I'm ecstatic.

And padded.
