this is jesus christ to tim tebow…….

 Well, I was going to post some more Charleston pictures, but I went to the kitchen for a glass of wine and came back to find my computer screen has suddenly gone all wonky again. I can see to read and type, but pictures look like negatives. Making it difficult to post pictures.  AAGGHH. I’m all calm and serene about it now because it’s done this a few times since the initial horrific dropping-of-the-laptop-into-the-floor incident in October, which resulted in hysterical tears and anguish. That time it magically recovered after about a week (during which my dithering around about what to do and not doing anything worked in my favor for once), and since then it’s been going back to normal after I reboot. Or even after being jiggled a bit. I’m sure it’s a loose connection somewhere, but the laptop is getting old (in laptop years) and I don’t want to put much money into it because it’s developed a few other issues that are probably bad signs too, like not wanting to wake up after going into hibernation mode (well, who does??) SO basically I’m hoping to eek out as much life as I can from it. And just living with its little episodes. 

But that does mean putting off photos until I can see what I’m doing (and yes, I am too lazy to walk across the room and fire up Baker B’s PC and use that. Well, really I don’t want to have to sit upright while making an entry. That’s too much like work.)

So instead of Charleston pictures, I’ll share this hysterical video. I will just confess right now that I have never watched Jimmy Fallon, and although I do recognize his name, I really know nothing at all about him. Well, until now. Now I know that he can do a killer David Bowie impression, and his absolutely brilliant Tebowie mashup made me laugh till I was in tears:

(refresh if it doesn’t show. As usual)

I don’t care what Tim Tebow believes or what he doesn’t believe or how he chooses to express his beliefs — but it really does seem like whatever god or gods are up there/out there/ around here would have a whole lot more pressing matters to worry about than who wins a football game. And as one of my favorites pointed out in another blog post, if Tebow was Jewish or Muslim and engaging in rituals belonging to a non-Christian religion, he would probably be getting a VERY different reaction. I’m pretty certain it would not be a warm fuzzy one, either. 

And while we’re on that subject I usually steer far clear of, I also found this highly entertaining: 

Apparently I am a Wiccan. I’d really rather be a Buddhist, but I have a black cat, a black and white cat, and a multi-colored-including-quite-a-bit-of-black cat. And even if I didn’t, I’d pick Indian takeout over Chinese so I’d be a Hindu.  

Well, since I’m sitting here staring at the computer screen with my mind blank, I guess that’s it! I really would like to improve on my entry-making-numbers this year. Maybe I can make shorter and more frequent entries. What a concept! And I will say that I am enjoying my three day weekend  to a ridiculous degree. And I have done nothing! NOTHING!!! But lounge around and read and play on the computer and make some necklaces – I have enough jewelry-making supplies (dating back to the EIGHTIES) to start my own store. Another goal for this year is to actually do something with it, beyond accumulating even more.

Oh, and I have done Jillian Michaels Workouts every morning first thing too. After pretty much abandoning them for my entire Christmas break. Go me! I have "Ripped in 30" and a Power Yoga one. I started out with "30 Day Shred" and worked up to Level 3 before the break, but being a Gemini I got bored with it and gave it to Kim. And bought these two. So I’m starting over at Level 1. I’m not quite so crazy about the Power Yoga, but I think I’m usually not too crazy about Power Yoga in general and really need to get back to a nice normal Yoga that focuses on more than getting all buff. Jillian Michaels doing a Yoga DVD is pretty funny, though. She obviously is not at all interested in the higher aspects of Yoga– just the getting all buff aspects. She will throw a few Yoga terms in kind of grudgingly now and then, obviously thinking they are quite loony. At one point during a stretch she says, "Let your heart melt into the ground…..ummm,  that’s Yoga-speak for stretch as far as you can!!" 

So at least I’m not JUST lying on the couch playing online. It’s really nice knowing I have one more day off, though. And now sadly I really need to get away from the computer. And hope it will recover and be back to normal tomorrow.
