"we roast nuts daily"

To y'all idiosyncratic readers ( I am eating beef jerky while I say y'all ):

The other day I passed a place in Fort Worth. The marquee sign on the outside made me do a double take, which was not easy. The sign for the nut company said, "We Roast Nuts Daily, 8:30 to 5:00."

The location of said marquee is Vending Nut Company. I was thinking, why are they so proud that they roast nuts daily? What is the purpose? In case a whole family wants to go watch them roast nuts?
Anyway in case you need a fun excursion the number is: (817) 737-3071.


To all who have been waiting eagerly with baited breath: The Strokes will release a new album March 21. The new collection is called Angles. Here is a link to a story that talks about their new album. It is from the Addict Music site. I thought it was from The Guardian, but either way it is a link you would not otherwise have, thanks to n.d.h. : The Strokes. YOUR WELCOME.

feel sad that borders is closing nearby. :(

happy monday,

Hi Y'all... I Am Sick of the word Y'ALL

Hi Y'ALL:


I am so sick of the word y'all... probably because I have spent too much time in Fort Worth, TX.

Aside from the fact that it doesn't really mean anything, it is an easy way out when one does not want to say "you all."

I will do a post soon.

Be prepared for a titillating story.

Do something to help the homeless. That is my suggestion to all gentle readers. If you are not gentle, go and help a pit bull. That was a joke, Lovely Readers.

lunch time.

Gentle Readers! :
I am going to do a post soon...

But here is my tidbit: for lunch I had a slice of pizza and a frappuccino. It was o.k.
Lately, I am always striving to have a good lunch and I seem to be constantly frustrated that it does not happen. It is like one long stream of meal non-satisfaction. And then, I went to the gas station. They had "hot dogs" outside on an advertisement but did not have any inside...The Horror. Again, we return to a long stream of meal non-satisfaction.

Be satisfied,

Alice

Give love, peace, hope and luck.

new mug look

The above is a strange picture of a mug that I have. I think it was taken in 2009.

Does it get your attention if I leave the blog: "untitled" ?????????????????????

Yes, I do have tricks for making you read!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Exclamation mark overload.

Small item I noticed: The other day I was in class at the exciting, yet mysteriously unnamed school that I attend. I glanced toward a group of girls sitting to the left. Believe it or not...all three girls in my class (all of them either 18 or 19 or in their early 20s)had the EXACT SAME HAIR (What style was it? That is not relevant, I do not feel). I quickly looked away, though I'm not sure why.
Instead, I should have counseled them on improving their hair routine.

Restaurant Update: Apparently I missed the memo, but Taco Bell now has Salsa Verde. (For any gringos, that is simply, GREEN SAUCE). I probably will not eat very much of it when I am there. However, I was so shocked that Taco Bell now carries this Mexican treat that I stole a sauce package anyway. Thumbs up to Taco Bell for carrying more sauce options.

Time to go re-arrange my sock drawer.

Love your saucy blogger,

Alice


(The Strokes will release a new album in March, in case you were hugely wondering about this). !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That deserves exclamation marks.

Hey! Who Threw That Popcorn?

gentle readers:

Recently I was in a movie theatre at an Undisclosed location. A little while after I sat down, a couple (They were a younger couple, speaking only Spanish. The woman had a very large purse.) sat next to me. The trouble ensued when they decided to speak in regular voices throughout the whole movie. What? I thought, very disturbed. How dare they interfere with No Strings Attached, a movie I had been waiting ages to see!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! exclamation mark overload.

After I got tired of hearing them chit chat over the movie, I threw one kernel of popcorn at them.

But this was not effective. So, when it was getting toward the end of the movie, I threw a fistful of popcorn at them. After this, I quickly made my exit. Although I did not get to see their reaction, I am hoping that they were like, "Hey! Who threw that popcorn?" Next time I am just going to tell them, "Callate!" TRUE STORY.

I heard an announcement on 106.1 FM for a Kesha concert (it was Super Bowl related) at the Bud Light Hotel in Dallas.

Why do we have a Bud Light Hotel and where is it located???????? question mark overload. Are you supposed to drink Bud Light there?????? I am SO confused.

Well, there is more to write, but for now, goodbye.
Staying warm in my Snuggie,

Alice
