A Brazilian Butt Lift Will Make You More "Attractive And Sensuous"

Hello all,
I was reading a magazine that came in the mail, when I read about the Brazilian Butt Lift. News to me!

The Brazilian Butt Lift is supposed to "fill the upper quadrant of your buttocks so that the butt appears lifted and perky."
The magazine also stated, "the resulting effect is that the woman appears more attractive and sensuous."
Huh?
I feel sorry for any woman who feels she needs to fill the upper quadrant of her buttocks in order to be more "attractive and sensuous."

I am sure that the Brazilian Butt Lift will NOT, in fact, turn you into a Brazilian Hottie.

The Brazilian Butt Lift is performed by Dr. Otto Huertas in Dallas.
If you are, in fact, interested, call his sexy phone at 972-279-9000.

Thank you for reading my tiny little blog.
And have a great 2013.
I can't get out of saying: merry christmas.

The Traffic Outside Is Frightful, But Inside It's So Delightful, And Nightcap News: Finally, Something My Generation Can Stomach

No matter where I go, in Dallas,
the traffic is constantly:
sprawling, sniping, gnawing at me. Sometimes it is chiding me.
I tell myself to be more aggressive when there is heavy traffic. Then when I have jumped in front of someone or gunned the engine, I am glad. I tell myself, Good Job!
It is as if I'm saying, "Good Job. You were a real jerk out there!"

I watched the Nightcap News on the CW 33. The show calls itself "a different kind of news."
The show gets a thumbs up. Of course it is not hard-core news.
It contains small segments such as "WTF" and "You Really Need To Know..." which, sadly!, are perfect for my impatient, incessantly demanding generation.
If you want in-depth analysis or someone similar to Peter Jennings, go somewhere else. But if you want to laugh (most of the hosts are actually funny, without being too annoying), go to the nightcap news.

D Magazine recently posted a negative review of the Nightcap news on their blog, Front Burner.

Maybe reporter Jason Heid is mad because nobody reads D Magazine?

The End.

It's Okay To Eat Cheetos In The Car, And A Picture Of The Dallas Marathon

Hello all,

Glamour magazine used to have a segment called, "It's okay to..."
The magazine would validate women for various things.
I do not know if they still have it.
However, I checked recently, and it was not there.

So, in honor of Glamour, here is my own list of "It's okay to..."
It's okay...

To not super size your meal, or choose the larger size, at any fast food place.

To not send Christmas cards.
(However, it is a nice touch. I love Christmas cards, and am not decrying them).

To send a Merry Christmas text, instead of a Christmas card. But only if you know the person pretty well, and you know that they will not be offended at your two-second text.

To not wear makeup.

To do what you want, on new year's eve.

To be gravely annoyed at any Christmas music, in any store.

To eat Cheetos in the car. While driving.

Fashion note: I have seen a lot of boots lately.
Boots are great, except not when everyone wears them at once. I feel strongly about this.

New and SERIOUS topic:
I do not know what can be said about the school shootings in Connecticut.
The link will take you to a story from the Hartford Courant. It talks about some of the victims.

I do think that two things are important: if you are concerned about this event, you should find out as much as you can about it on your own. It's better to be informed and educated, than not to be so. There has been a flurry of reporting, and some reporters and news shows seem to have gotten off track.
My suggestion regarding this matter is: do your best to find out what you want to know, on your own.

And, despite the fact that so many people--including children--lost their lives, everyone involved, including parents and close relatives of the children, needs to move on with their lives as quickly as possible. That is how they will best honor the victims.

Stay Christmas-y,
Alice

"The Cream Shirt Is A Great Choice, And Thank Goodness You Bought A Paleta De Tamarindo!"

Hello all,


I know this is not a very good picture. It is the best I could do.

The girl in the picture was speaking loudly on her speakerphone. The incident took place in an airport lounge, where I was, recently.
Yes, I understand if you need to talk on the phone, but not on speakerphone in a public place. She was asked to turn it down, and she did so, but did not say anything.
Since she was discussing her clothing choices, and a popsicle that she bought for someone (a paleta), I wanted to turn around and say: "I think the cream shirt is a great choice, and thank goodness you bought a paleta de tamarindo."
Just to try and shut her up.

A picture I took recently in Dallas. Considering I took it from my car, I'm surprised it turned out so well.

Fancy a ride?

The End.

stay devoted,
Alice

No, You Cannot Use My Rewards Card

A woman asked recently outside the Tom Thumb gas station if she could use my "Rewards" Card. The card is part of the store's Rewards program.
It is also a grocery store.

I said no, prompting her to call me a terrible name.

By giving her my Rewards card, she would have gotten my phone number. No way was she going to get that!

View this link for Blue October.
They were in town recently. I have seen them twice, the first time was at a small bar in San Angelo, tx, and they were great.
Many moons ago.

Thank you.

"Every Day We Go To Work And Develop Acquaintances We Try To Pass Off As Friends..." And, It Is A Sad Day, Without Twinkies.

Hello:

There was an opinion piece that I wanted to share. The Dallas Morning News is very picky about displaying certain articles online to subscribers only.
So instead, you are getting me talking about the piece.

From today's Dallas Morning News:
"Are we capable of true friendship anymore?" By David L. McClure.
Here is the brief headline, shown on the Dallas Morning News web site.
"Every day we go to work and develop acquaintances we try to pass off as friends. In reality, they are nothing of the sort."

In a nutshell, McClure states that many in our society are losing the meaning of "true" friendship. He states that we tend to call people friends, when they really do not fit the definition, or have any requirements of being a friend. We are awash in a sea of acquaintances we call friends.

I am not commenting, except to give you some of the article.
Here is the almost last paragraph of the Opinion piece: "Who do you think your friends are, really? Stop what you're doing, right now, and call them. Ask them to meet you for lunch or set up a time to go to a movie or go work out together. Then, while you're eating that burger at the Butcher Shoppe in downtown Plano or while you're lifting weights at 24 Hour Fitness or watching the previews at Cinemark Legacy, ask that person how he or she is doing--really doing--and listen."

The Twinkie--that delectable treat--is going to be gone.
When I was younger (as in Elementary School), I was told that a Twinkie would clog your arteries for 25 years. There are many things that could potentially cause hardening of the arteries even more or about the same as a Twinkie would. However, that is not the point.
The crucial point is now, that they are gone for good. And, that 18,500 people will lose their jobs.

The Hostess company is based in Irving, TX.

I did try to buy some Twinkies today, and was told, "everyone hoarded them yesterday."



To all of this: Lovely, Just Lovely.
Yes, it is a very sad day, in America.

Goodbye,
Alice

"These Pigs Wanna Blow My House Down, Head Underground, To The Next Town."

Hello:
The lyric above is from Cypress Hill.
More specifically, it is from the song (a 1993 song!) described below.
I was listening to Cypress Hill's "Insane In The Brain" (Watch it here) because it came on the radio, about a couple of days ago.
And, I had a wonder-filled--almost--moment of awe, where I asked, are the kids still listening to this?

(Disclaimer: I am not advocating any disrespect to police officers).

Read the lyrics. They are from Metro Lyrics.

I watched a little bit of Emily Owens, MD.

This is how it worked out: I said I would watch it for silly reasons, and I did.

Keep it simple, please.
