Hi Anne!
Yes, as the Frankie Goes To Hollywood song says, I’m RELAXing this weekend. How did I manage a two day weekend? Pure luck!
I’m going to try something a little different this e-mail. I’m listening to my walkman as I’m writing this. I’m jumping between the classic rock station and the "hits of the 80’s-today" station (plays a lot of disco/dance music). As I’m writing this letter, I’ll make a note of the songs I’m listening to. I don’t know, it’s just something different.
…so I’ll start right now **American Pie by Don McClean**
congratulations on having your new domain name! Neeloo is pretty cool. At least you know nobody else will have the same name as you. I’m a bit confused here. What’s the difference between a domain name and having a web site (like chez anne?) Yes, I am a total retard when it comes to computers!
Yeah, all those cases of anthrax are pretty scary. I just want to say to these people who are doing this "Why can’t you just leave us alone?" All I want to do is go to Disneyworld and have a good time and not have to worry about anything! Anne, I know you probably have been, but could you please pray that I have a safe flight (both ways!). We shouldn’t have to live in fear like this!
**Life in the fast lane- The Eagles (love this song! Don Henly has the sexiest voice!!)**
I’m glad you have the same fears about online dating. Its not only the fact of what if the guy turns out to be a nut or simply unattractive its just that how can you really know someone if all you see are words on a screen? I mean, okay, I feel pretty close to you and all we’ve been doing is e-mailing each other and we know what each other looks like, but it’s not like I’m looking at you as a potential mate (LOL)! I mean, what if I meet someone on line and we get along really great and we exchange pictures and he’s attractive and we meet in person and he has b.o. or has a voice that sounds like fingers on a chalkboard? At least if I meet someone in person I’ll know right away if I’m attracted to him or not. (Physical is the spark, personality keeps the fire going).
**Word Up- Cameo (Love this song too! Great beat!!)**
That’s why I’m just taking this whole "e-mailing this guy in Fla" with a grain of salt. I am not going to get my hopes up because I know if I do, I’ll be disappointed.
Yes, Mike Myers is the voice of Shrek. THere’s going to be a sequal. Austin Powers?! Yeah, baby, yeah! No AV movies?! Well, when you do get one, you’ll have to tell me so we can celebrate! Have you rented TMR yet? Well, what are you waiting for??
Danielle and I might go to the movies today (sunday) I was going to suggest yesterday, but I was so tired. I think my period’s working on me. I felt like such a lazy bum. I didn’t even change out of my pj’s. And it was beautiful out too. I could have taken a walk but I didn’t. At least I rode my exercise bike later that night. And I wrote another short story. I’ll mail that out tomorrow.
**Sharp Dressed Man- ZZ Top (good song)**
I re-watched "The Stand" this past week. Have you seen it? It’s a mini-series based on Steven King’s novel of the same name. It origanally was on in 1994. Molly Ringwald was in it. So was Rob Lowe, Gary Sinise and Laura San Giacomo (to name a few). It’s pretty long (I’m guessing about six hours without commericals) but it’s a great movie. I don’t know if I mentioned this before or not, but I like Gary Sinise. I think he’s sexy. He doesn’t have quite the same affect as Arnold does, but "my my I do declare, I do get the vapors" when I see him! Another actor who I like (and who is in the stand) is Adam Storke. He played Julia Roberts love interest in Mystic Pizza. That’s the only other movie I know him from.
**Bennie & The Jets - Elton John** (not one of my favorite songs by him, but I still like it)
Also Ed Harris (Stepmom, Apollo 13) has a small part in the Stand. He’s a general or something and he’s clean shaven bald. Well, that commanding presense coupled with the baldness…. I just found that so incredibly attractive. I don’t really like Ed Harris (I mean, he isn’t a bad looking guy, but I never really noticed him before) but I just think he’s so sexy in that small role he played in The Stand.
**Upside Down- Diana Ross (get funky!!)**
FYI- The Stand isn’t a horror movie. There are some scary scenes and some "gross" scenes, but it is a very emotional movie. God plays a big part in it. I highly reccomend it. I was really pleased with how it came out. The book is looong (over 1000 pages) and I was afraid that it was going to be torn to shreads. The movie stayed pretty true to the book. They changed the ending though, and I like the movie ending better. The book ending was kinda depressing but the movie ending was beautiful. I was bawling (even though I’ve seen it several times before).
**Saturday Night Fever- Bee Gees (love this song!)**
Well, that’s it for now. Hope you had a good weekend! Take care and God bless! God bless the USA!
Michele
