Just A Quick Note

Hello,...

Sorry, it has been a few days since my last update. I have not been feeling to good the last few day, and my computer has been making my head hurt. So needless to say I have been avoinding my whole desk area! There will be another update after Gaelen's 3rd birthday on or around July 27th.

Here A Tick, There A Tick, Everywhere A Tick, Tick

Well we have been back from camping for a couple of days now. I did not write sooner, because of thr fact I was, and still am completely exhausted. Camping is supposed to be R&R, but for some reason I am just wiped out. Tom was wiped out as well. Maybe, because I am pregnant and the fact that we went on a super long hike may have something to do with it. Tom was hangingout cuddleing with Gaelen and noticed a bump at the base of his skull. Turns out it was a FUCKING TICK! What the hell? Tom pulled off the tick right away, and extinguished all life out of the dirty little bastard. How dare it try to eat my son! He is almost three years old for christs sake! Hehehehe.... Anyway Tom crushed it, and it had no blood in its body so we think that it had not been attached for long at all. It did come with a piece of Gaelen's skin though. To top it off the Mensen's daughter wound up getting poison ivy....My legs got eaten alive by natures favorite vampire (the mosquito). I counted today, and there are about 25-30 below my knee on each leg. We had fun though, and I look forward to camping again soon! Except maybe....when people decide to tell scary stories....I just freak myself out alot. Nothing like a nice scary story to get the blood pumping.

Working In A Gold Mine,... Gold Mine

Lake Kengonsa State Park

We are going camping this weekend. Myself, Tom, our boys, Tim, and the Mensens, another family that we have become friends with are all going. It's a big ass group, but the Mensens got their own site. We're going to Lake Kengonsa State Park, it's not to far from Madison. I'm really looking forward to this, except maybe the part where the Mensens bring their HUGE FUCKING DOGS! One is a wolf and the other is like a lab mix. I love dogs, but these should be left at home, especially when Tim is not fond of dogs. However....it is not my call. It's been a long time since we have gone camping with our Timmy...Our best friend. Wo0t...this will be some much fun...I hope.....

Soon There Will Be Five!

Well how do I start? Sorry it has been so long since my last update, but things have been a bit off center lately. We found out on the 10th of this month, that we are going to be having another child. This will make our third. I took a home pregnancy test on the 10th and thats how we found out. We were not going to have another child until our oldest (Gaelen) was five, but as the fates would have it...we are now going to have a third. I told Tom, and he just kind of blinked...(blink, blink, blink). After the initial blinking was finished, he became uber excited. The only downside is that we need to start all over with baby things. You know things like cribs, clothes, bottles, and the like. I am VERY excited about the idea of another member to the family. Tim gets to be uncle Timmy and Godfather to yet another of the Wetzel clan. WILL TIM SURVIVE????? You are a great guy Tim and we love you lots, thanks for being our friend, member of the family, and Godfather to the kids.....You ROCK!!!!

Mmmmm Bacony Goodness

Mmmmm bacon.......It is so yummy! I put it in the microwave so it could soak up lots of radiation, then ate it all. Maybe I will mutate now! Actually microwaves have microwaves that are actually radiowaves. Sounds confusing....At any rate it would still be cool to mutate.

Long Winded?

Some would say that I am long winded....but I just love to write.

Did anyone tell David Eddings that he was long winded?

How about Stephen King?

So why then am I considered "long winded?"

Its ok...I guess I do not mind, because I am doing what I enjoy.

WTF???

First no one really reads my LiveJournal, except maybe a select few. So then I come here and creata a blog....I did this in the hope that maybe I would get more exposure here.
However...all this has really done is create more work for me. Its a good thing that I love to write, otherwise I would just say "fuck it" and shut this blog down. I went to work today...I am amazed that I still like this job, but it is only Subway. If you can fog up glass you can work at Subway. I actually do not mind the work, and I get free food all the time. When I got home today I noticed that the light fixture in my kitchen was falling off of the ceiling. I'm thinking "boy that would really suck if it fell on my boys". Actually it would really piss me off. I would wonder about the stability of our townhouse. I feel like I have had a crappy day, but it has been pretty good thus far. I'm not really sure what put me in this mood. I think it was the light fixture. Anyway...I got home today and I was greeted by a barrage of hugs and kisses from my guys. I love my family, and it is so awesome to come home to my husband and my two boys. Now I am hanging out listening to the local lawnmower guy, and taking deep breaths of freshly mown grass. I love that smell. I am looking forward to going camping on the 16th of this month. The only draw back to that day is that I will be missing the season premiere of Stargate Atlantis. Maybe I can get Shane to record it for me? I am sure that it will be on the Friday after next, but its not the same! Tomarrow on July 9th the season premiere of Stargate SG-1 comes on. Wo0t...I am excited! I'm sitting here typing away crazy right? Well I look down at my keyboard, and I notice that the keys have some kind of weird looking substance on them. It appears to be pizza sauce, but the last time I had pizza was last week sometime. Now I tend to be very anal about some things in my life, and my electronics/computer area is one of them. So anyway...I was getting irritated at the thought of my being careless with my keyboard. Upon further investigation, I notice that it is not pizza sauce at all, but in fact it is (dun, dun, dun) my very own crimson life force splattered upon my keys. I am now sitting here stunned, trying to figure out when, and how I cut myself. Its annoying, because here I was ready to blame my kids, when it is my own self neglect, and not paying myself any mind at all. But hey...my kids are always touching my electronics. I freak out when anyone goes near any of my toys. If they get broke, then I want to know that I was the one who broke it. Well there you have it...A classic example of the chaos that is me. Now that I have sucked you all in and brought you all to the darkside, I can just sit back have some chips and a soda and watch as the future unfolds. You have used all your darkside points, and if you have not then you gain 4. Muwhahahahahahahahahaha.

Wonder Woman

One Bad Ass Superhero



Before Xena, Buffy, or the amazing Lara Croft there was Wonder Woman, the hottest superhero ever to grace my television.
Some of you probably watched the show during its three-year run on ABC. Based on the 1940s "Wonder Woman" comic books, the TV series was born in 1976. Set during World War II, the show found Wonder Woman working undercover as mild-mannered Diana Prince, a War Department employee.


Wonder Woman sprang into action, whenever duty called. Diana would spin to transform into Wonder Woman, and being armed with a magic belt giving her tremendous strength, bullet proof bracelets, a tiara that could be thrown as a returning weapon, and a lasso that could force the strongest willed individual to tell the truth. To top it all off she would proceed to kick some serious villain ass.

I grew up watching the show and was in absolute awe of Wonder Woman. She was a true role model for girls in the '70s. Back then; everyone wanted to be Wonder Woman on Halloween. Actually, kids… not to mention adults (both men and women) still dress up as the all-American superhero to this day. Sadly, I couldn't get my hands on a Wonder Woman costume as a child, and my mother was so not a skilled seamstress to be able to make me one, so I had to settle for some rag tag bum outfit. Sad, isn't it?


Anyway, all the memories and feelings I have associated with that astounding show, it's interesting to watch again "Wonder Woman" as an adult. While I took the stories to be oh-so-true as a kid, they seem pretty silly now. Case in point: Episode #6, entitled "Wonder Woman vs. Gargantua!" Wonder Woman battles a powerful circus ape that's been secretly trained by the Nazis to nab a highly valued United States informant. The series special effects… particularly the sequences in which we see Wonder Woman flying in her invisible plane… just can't compare to what's possible now.


Having said that, "Wonder Woman" still totally… beyond a shadow of a doubt is way kick ass after all these years. The key to the show's enduring appeal is the actress at the heart of it all: Lynda Carter. Carter who was a former Miss USA with very little acting experience when she was cast in the title role, and watching the show again all these years later, you come to love and respect what a great job she really did. Even though the situations were often somewhat outrageous and the special effects were unconvincing, the charismatic and charming…not to mention gorgeous… Carter somehow made it all believable. Wonder Woman had to have at least a 30 charisma.


It's pretty hard to imagine any other actress playing the role of Wonder Woman. That would probably explain why a big screen movie has only been discussed and yet to be made, any despite talk about the potential project over the years. There was a "Wonder Woman" TV movie made in 1974 with Cathy Lee Crosby in the lead role, but it was awful (no offense to the lovely Cathy Lee Crosby). It’s just that no one plays Wonder Woman like Lynda Carter. Long may the memory of Wonder Woman always live on, in the hearts and minds of those who will remember and those who will discover the LEGANDAY…WONDER WOMAN!!!

My TV

I did the unthinkable today; I actually shut my TV off when I went to try and sleep. I never shut this thing off unless I’m going to be out of the house for an eon of hours. It’s on twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, which is actually better for it than repeated offings and onings. At least that’s what I tell myself. Still, you can imagine what an event it is for me to actually hit the off switch. So, I curled up to sleep, and found I couldn’t. I heard every little noise; every creak of floorboards, every settling of windowsills, every crick, and crack. I resorted to turning the radio on very low, just so I could have something going. Even that wasn’t enough. Apparently, as annoying as it is to be addicted to, it’s a sort of lullaby to me, in a way. I’m so used to it, that I’m not certain how to sleep without it. The noises, I suppose, wouldn’t have been quite so deafening to my nerves, if I hadn’t experienced the joys of finding a squirrel in my house yesterday; so every time I hear a noise, now, I think it’s another one. I like squirrels just as much as anyone else, but my boys would try to catch it. I’m sure there’s nothing in here, I’m sure it’s just my imagination, but I still want to go back to the days when all I had to worry over was whether Mulder and Scully were going to kiss or not!

An Ode To Samwise The Brave

The Hero


The times we have are few, and they should be valued. Never forsake those whom you love in your life, for they are the ones who will carry you in your time of greatest need. Like those who have come before, lets us hold onto the hope that one day we will all see each other again. Let us hope that we have the knowledge to repair that, which is broken, and forever forge on into stories of legends.

Heroes come in all forms, and it is sometimes the smallest that prevail, and shine through the darkest times. I shall walk with you into death, and accompany you into the halls of heroes. And they shall call your name from the highest mountain, and it will be heard from one end of the world to the other. They will call you friend…

Monuments shall be fashioned where your boots have trod, and your deeds will be taught in the halls of learning. For you have brought peace, and restored the light that had faded.

Stupid Blogger....I am a dork! I have no idea how the hell to use this bloody thing! I guess I will have to recruit my pal Tim to help me. Muwhahahahahahaha!!!!
