-Skeet Ulrich is so handsome; He looks like a young Johnny Depp!!! Toooo Cute!
-Alvin was certainly the bell cow of the trio, but for my money, Theodore was the most talented chipmunk.
-SUDOKU! Maybe I'm late to the party on this one, but I think this is a blast!!!!
-Hubby Rick had a late night at the office last night, so he was in a foul mood this morning...Geez Rick: Want some "calm down" with your Pop Tarts?
-Revenge of the Toaster!!! An electronic backfire this morning let me with "Eggo" on my face, and Zachary with an empty belly before school.

- I sure have a case of the Mondays after one pretty terrific weekend!
- Congrats to the St. Boaventure junior Pirates, won their game against the ferocious Maroon Marauders of St. Angelica Parish (Great game, Marauders!). I don't think I'm the only one who appreciated Bess Dwyer's yummy thermos of hot cocoa to warm up frosty bones in the crowd. Said Mr. Collin Higgens: "This isn't Irish Cocoa, is it, Bess?" Too funny, Collin. Leave the jokes to me ;)
-Pop cans in the family room!!! EEEEK! Anyone else having this problem? Sometimes it seems like Zachary thinks that the recycling bins are their for show. They aren't!!! I wonder if I could tell the age of my table by counting the rings left on it, like a tree...:)
-Angelina Jolie...dial it down a notch! Ever heard the one about the milk and the cow, Angie?
-The Koala Bear is not actually a bear, but rather its a marsupial! Does this mean anything to me?
- 2009 is fast approaching. My resolution is to sing like I don't need music, dance like no one is watching me dance, and love it will never ever hurt me!"
-Who's never hungry on Thanksgiving? The turkey- he's already stuffed!
-Picked up a shrimp cocktail at the Costco as an appetizer for our Thanksgiving feast. Were the Pilgrims eating shellfish with the Native Americans? I can't say, but I do know that the LaPortia clan is going to be eating some with Grandma and Grandpa Lauglin!
-Where does the term contact lense come from? Contact with the eye? Probably.
-Click it or ticket, holiday drivers.
-High ho homesick lets go! I'm feeling like the ride of the rodeo! The LaPortia clan is going to fill up the LaPortia VAN in order to make the trip to Ames for Turkey day. With gas prices going down, the trip should be a cinch!
-Sail the Moonboat, Moonboat, Moonboat, Through the starry sky! Sail the Moonboat, Moonboat, Moonboat, watch the clouds roll by!-Tom Chapin
Enjoy the rest of your Monday, and remember to live everyday like its Thanksgiving!
Hugs,
Patty LaP.

Big Weekend!
-Get ready to kick up your heels and Par-tay: here comes the weekend! Looking forward to sleeping late tommorow, and then waking up to watch Zachary kick some butt on the Junior Pirate football squad! Come on Coach Miklintack: Let all the kids play!
-Sometimes my cellphone feels more like a leash!
-I'll tell you who's funny: that Ray Romano. I don;t know about everybody, but I sure love him.
-When is a turkey the scariest? When it's a'goblin' :) ;)
-What's with the kids these days wearing pants below their tushies? Foolish, I think.
-I have a pair of shoulder pads in my closet that I haven't worn in 16 years. Oh dear fashion God, please bring shoulder pads back in style...teehee...
-Da Plane Da Plane!!! Heading to Akron over Christmas break! Just got our tickets yesterday from that little Travelocity gnome. Can''t wait to see Carly, Dennis, and the new puppy. Carly, tell Roxy I said : Bow wow!
-LIFE IS A HIGHWAY, I WANT TO RIDE IT ALL NIGHT LONG!
-Sure seems like everyone is in more of a hurry than ever. Where's the fire folks?
-There's no free brunch...
Have a sunny weekend!

2K8 Coat Drive
-The Saint Bonaventure Parish Coat Drive was a resounding success! Much thanks to everyone who donated and helped out! Beth McGuire- Your pumpkin cookies were a HIT! No one cared about the holiday mixup- at least they weren't Fourth of July cookies!
-Football is on the tube non-stop at Casa De LaPortia, but I don't mind. Just so long as Zachary and his friends keep their feet off the sofa.
-The skin of the apple is enough to make it "Candied" in my opinion.
-Anyone else excited for day after Turkey day doorbuster sales? I am too:)
-Wore my kitten sweatshirt to work today. It got some chuckles out of Linda, but nobody else seemed to get it...
-What? Carrot cake is not a vegetable? ;)
-Chinese food for dinner tonight! MISO grateful to Lop and the rest of the crew at Amber Wok for the extra dumplings! Deeelish!
-Do kids still wear braces? Haven't seen many metal mouths lately.
-This is the stuff dreams are made of.-Humphrey Bogart
-Big day tommorow- Laundry...dum-dum-dum
Hugs for all,

Obamania? Who knew!!
-Barack Obama is the new Prez. to be! Having served in the public office myself, I would offer some advice to Mr. Obama: You can't please everybody. Whether you happen to be president of America, or team mom to your niece's highschool cheerleading team (GO CHICKS GO!) sometimes you won't be popular. Best of luck, Mr. OB.
-Fun Fact: The Lighter was invented before the match!! Too funny!
-i-Pods!!! How easy it is to listen whatever you want! Anybody else seen these?
-Went to the Giggle Box last night with Hubby Rick. What fun! The comic, Howie Shwartzman (jewish?), was trying out some new material, which was just hillariously fun! Rick told him he'd look for him on Leno! Also: great popcorn shrimp.
-Eating M&M candies and pretzels at the same time tastes just the same as eating a chocolate covered pretzel ;)
-Is coconut a fruit?
-How does Alex Trebek have the time to come up with all of those brainy Jeopardy questions every day? Methinks his noodle must be constantly working to be so smart.
-Fly me to the moon, let me play amongst the stars!-Frank Sinatra
-Shoot for the moon, even if you miss you'll land amongst the stars-Corky Pickle.\
Well, it's off to bed for me!

Scarfs?
-Had a recent discussion with a colleague about the merits and neccesity of wearing a scarf...Eeek. I remember the days when wearing a scarf meant that you were a beatnik (which was sure to catch you a swift slap on the rump from your daddy!) As for me, when I wear a scarf, I feel like Snoopy pretending to be World War 2 flying Ace. Bombs away Woodchuck! Anyway, enough about the neck warmers.
-Tinsel, boughs of holly, and stockings are soon to abound, and that means that X-Mas is a comin'! But what about old Mr. Turkey! Has anyone else noticed that Thanksgiving has been gettting the ax lately? (Even you Mr. Turkey! I bet you could use a scarf...Teehee!!!!) Methinks its because John and Jane Q. Corporate can't make as much money off of Thanksgiving merch as they can from Jolly Old Kris Kringle!!
-Bernie Mac! Comedy misses you dearly!! No more George Lopez!!!! :(
-My wish list: Anything leopard print- RAWR!
-Will and Grace-I don't get it?
-It looks like DVDs are here to stay!!!
-Some local rascals have decided to use my new sidewalk concrete as their easel for their artwork. With winter fast approaching, it looks like these stick men are here to stay...welcome to the neighborhood, stickfellas.
-Support the Troops!
-Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams go, life is a barren field covered with snow. Hold fast to dreams, for when dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannnot fly.-Langston Hughes
-Patrick Duffy: where have you gone? You too, Bronson Pinchot. The two of them in the same show...too funny!
Well, off to bed. Big day tommorow: Plan to watch 7th Heaven with Brenda from next door.
The rhythm of my heart is beating like a drum-Rod Stewart

That Time of Year
Tueday!...or is it SnoozeDay:)
-A tip of the cap to Old Man Winter! (Stocking cap :8) Better late than never, I say!
-Dog sweaters? Now I've REALLY seen it all!
-Nose rings: are these new or have I been sleeping?
-For my money, Malcolm Jamal Warner was the best of the Huckstable children. He played Theo, and he played him to the hilt.
-Anyone know how long it takes for the process from grape to raisin? Anyway to speed it up?
-I can't get it enough of these Ying Yang Twins that my nephew introduced me to. More soon, please!
-Sheila E. cann sure pound away on those drums! What talent! Went with Shelly from church to see her play at the Performing Arts Center. 17 dollars. Steep but worth it.
-Had a pear on the bus the other day. Not the best I've had...but not the worst!
-All you need is love-John Lennon
-Well, off to the real estate office...time to bake the donuts ;)
Untill next time!
