Once of my Facebook friends has a restaurant downtown and its a little pricey, so I don’t go there. It’s more than the cost of the food. Its the drive downtown, the hassle of parking, the extra expense of gas and parking fees, and the time it takes to get there, eat and drive back. There has to be a special reason for me to want to do all that.

Maybe if he would start having songwriters come and sing, or highlight some local bands on the weekends, I would be more inclined to make the effort to go downtown and patronize his place.

But there are plenty of really good restaurants out here near my house, with free parking at the door and good food. So the downtown places are going to have to do something to make themselves special.

I have really long hair and sometimes I get so tired of fixing it all the time. I have to wash it at least every other day and I buy the best quality hair products to keep it healthy and shiny. I have a drawer full of hair accessories that I hardly ever use. Maybe I should start putting it up and using a curling iron again. They say long hair is so easy, but I disagree. To keep it looking nice you have to spend a lot of time and money on your long hair. It’s the women who have really short hair who have it easy!

I’m hungry and need to cook up some dinner. I went to the grocery store on Monday and spent almost $200. So I have a lot of food in the house. The refrigerator is full, the freezer is full and the pantry shelves are full. But nothing looks good to me. All this food is boring and the same old thing. I think I am just getting sick of my own cooking.

The best thing about October is the fact that we have Halloween and get lots of candy. I have one serious sweet tooth. I remember my mother telling me that I would have rotten teeth if I didn’t stop eating so much candy as a kid. Well, my teeth are pretty good, despite all that candy. I guess I have good, strong genes for the tooth and bones that I enjoy.

Coming to bed means different things to different people. I like to wear a pretty nightgown to bed – whether I’m sleeping alone or if I have “company.” But some people wear old tee shirts or flannel pajamas to bed every night. That sounds so boring to me! Who wants to look at a pretty girl in an old teeshirt every night? Its not that hard to find a couple of pretty nightgowns and look nice while sleeping.
