100 Fact in 100 Days - Fact 3

Fact #3 -

I've only ever been to the follow states:

Arizona
California
Colorado
Idaho
Illinois (Chicago only)
Kansas
Nebraska
Nevada
New Mexico
Oregon
South Dakota
Washington
Wyoming

Up until this move I'd never been to Idaho, Oregon, or Washington, and until a business trip I'd never been further east than North Platte, Nebraska.
Seeing Chicago in February wasn't very thrilling, but I'd go back out there, the food was good.

Like I said before, I want to expand my horizons, and I really think Canada is my next stop.

100 Fact in 100 Days - Fact 2

As previously mentioned in Fact 1 I'm doing this meme for 100 facts about me in 100 days


Fact #2

I've never been outside the Continental United States


We went on a lot of family vacations as a kid, drove all over the Southwestern part of the US. I've been to Nevada, Utah, California, Arizona, and New Mexico more times than I can shake a stick at. Once we drove up to South Dakota to see Deadwood, The Crazy Horse Memorial and of course Mt. Rushmore. That being said, there are a ton of states that I haven't been to, which will be discussed later in the coming days.
Our journeys never took us to anyplace outside of the US, or even someplace like Hawaii. My parents were solidly middle class when I was growing up. We weren't poor by any means, but we weren't rolling in the dough either. Since all my relations where in Colorado, that meant that vacations were either going to see them or getting in the car and driving. I'd like to expand my horizons at some point, and Canada is just a stone's throw away now, so hopefully, it will change soon. More later in Fact 3.

I love this show



You scored as Calamity Jane. You aren't like the other girls, and that's fine by you. Ain't no cocksucker going to get you in a dress and play those fancy ways. You are a loyal friend and one of the few decent people in this town. You don't care what people think of you or the company you keep. (Calamity Jane is played by Robin Weigert)

HTML Help request

I'm looking for some help with some HTML. I really want to be able to do a "Wait there's more" sort of code on some of my posts, but I can't figure out how to do it.
I don't know if blogger even supports that sort of thing. If you know how to do this, let me know.

TIA,

100 Facts in 100 Days - Fact 1

I was browsing a ***Dave's blog and read a comment from Domestic Geek who I don't know, but who apparently reads a bunch of the same blogs I do.
Anyway, she is doing a meme that she's seen a bunch of other places, but is new to me.
I decided I would follow along because it seems interesting.
The object of the meme is to post 100 facts about yourself in 100 days. I'm not sure that I can even come up with 100 things that are interesting enough to post about and
I don't know if I'll be able to post something every day, but I'll try.


Fact #1

My dream job would be to be able to open my own restaurant.


I was telling this to Rick the other night. I really want to open a Indian/Mexican fry bread restaurant. Apparently, fry bread that's not East Indian (ie Naan) is totally unknown here. To me, being from Colorado when I say sopapilla I mean a puffy, yeasty sort of bread product that you either eat with honey or stuff with meat and cheese. Here, if you get sopapilla at a Mexican restaurant you basically get a deep fried tortilla rolled in sugar and cinnamon and topped with either whipped cream, pie filling or both. Not a bad thing, but not what I want. The concept of a savory sopapilla is completely foreign. Apparently, the problem with the Mexican restaurants up here was explained to me that I'm used to a Tex-Mex or Indian-Mex style and the food up here is Cal-Mex.

Haircut Time

Originally uploaded by LadyDragonfly.
Went and got my hair cut and colored. I think it turned out really well. Obviously not a color found in nature, but I like it none the less.

I’m going out to dinner to this fun sounding Brazilian Restaurant with Rick and his boss Mike. I’ll post a review later.

It’s hot again; it broke 90F again today, and is supposed to be hotter tomorrow. Ugh.
As much as I miss the sun during the winter here, I can’t wait until it cools down. Wednesday it was perfect here, partly sunny and only around 65. I’d love it if it never dropped below 50 and never got above say 80 tops year round. I’m not sure where I’d find that weather, but I’d take it if I could get it.

Off to the restaurant. More later!

Random Lines From Guilty Pleasures


1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123
3. Find the fifth sentence
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions

Don’t you dare dig for that “cool” or “intellectual” book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest, then tag three people.


I'll tag PoN, Girlzoot, and Doug
So, I have a bunch of books piled up on my "nightstand" read Lobo's Kennel, and I grabbed:


The Dark Highlander by Karen Marie Moning




And finally he heard what he needed; they were planning to fly out to Scotland some time this evening.
He melted back into a small cluster of pedestrians and slipped out a cell phone. It would be a simple matter to have one of his computer-savy brethren find out from which airport and when, and book him on the flight as well.

You scored as III - The Empress. The Empress is a maternal symbol. She is the mother figure who loves, nurtures and protects.
She will protect you, she will always be there when you are in trouble. When you fall over and graze your knee, the Empress will kiss it better.
Yet she is not a weak figure. Her compassion is strength. If her children are threatened she will stop at nothing to protect them. If well aspected in a Tarot spread, the Empress can symbolise security, protection and unconditional love. If badly aspected it can represent over-protectiveness, fear of risk taking and refusal to face the real world.
