I mean hard cover luxury editions that you buy to keep until the day you kick the bucket. I know, I'm a snob.... but I can't imagine a life without b.o.o.k.s. Just built a 9 foot book case. Need I say more? :)Blue Grumpsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03106493133778319165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-76011798239048447632013-03-01T18:35:11.957-05:002013-03-01T18:35:11.957-05:00No worries, Mary.

Seth was fairly amusing; but I'm sort of used to him, 'cause Jeremy is his target audience and watches Seth's shows all the time. I can't remember the last time Jeremy laughed so hard - he LOVED the show!<br /><br />I was leery when you noted that you'd seen the new doctor, and can hardly believe I read that it went well!

I just know it makes everything worse, so I don't partake. And I share your love for a real book. I don't think they will ever go out of style. However, it is nice to not "store" so many books. Storage is becoming a serious issue for me.<br /><br /><br />Nicole ~ Many thanks on the congrats. As for the Oscars, I am sure you can watch the best parts on YouTube. The worst parts, too, for that matter!!! I love YouTube:)Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932408372240147454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-17667094310687314862013-02-28T15:20:32.548-05:002013-02-28T15:20:32.548-05:00Congratulations on your Inspiring Blogger Award! I...Congratulations on your Inspiring Blogger Award! I usually watch the Oscars each year, or rather, it tends to at least play in the background, so I can know what's going on in hopes that I could maybe be there one day. This was a year, however, when I really wanted to see it and guess what...I fell asleep! Yeah, I didn't even know that I missed it until I woke up for a few seconds and heard Anne Hathaway's acceptance speech.<br /><br />At that time, I realized "Oh no! I'm missing the Oscars!" and tried to fight to stay awake but my body went back under. I was a little disappointed because I was wide awake when it came on but the last thing I remember seeing was those little dance and signing numbers that the host did at the beginning. All in all, I'm just so glad that Adele won for Skyfall...now she has a Golden Globe AND an Oscar!!! That makes me so happy for her because she deserved it...a great song for a great movie :)<br /><br />~NicoleNicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08965945636486620938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-58266538097257313992013-02-26T16:50:43.218-05:002013-02-26T16:50:43.218-05:00I was joking about the drinking, but the visit sou...I was joking about the drinking, but the visit sounds like FUN!!!Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932408372240147454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-59907519406462338492013-02-26T16:38:50.360-05:002013-02-26T16:38:50.360-05:00Come for a visit - and bring your mom!Come for a visit - and bring your mom!JJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14692103477055483000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-51203180256811060862013-02-26T15:31:21.382-05:002013-02-26T15:31:21.382-05:00Poor you.

Lots of empty shelves my friend.<br /><br />Manzie ~ Yep, still riding shotgun with the migraines. I think one of the chief complaints about the Oscar host was that he was trying to make the Oscars like the Tonys. Those are two different Awards Shows. And I won't even get into the behind-the-scenes mean. If I find your bottle, I will let you know...<br /><br />Jasmine ~ All the things we DON'T know is why we keep coming back!<br /><br />Gary ~ I am just glad you stopped in.

BLOGGERS GOT TALENT...I like it.<br /><br />Pat ~ Honestly I miss potatoes. I have discovered that if you "can't" have something than you "want" it. If I could eat taters, I wouldn't care much one way or the other. It's only that they are "forbidden fruit" that they are so darn attractive. I agree about Reality TV. That is totally mislabeled.

Okay, maybe next time.<br /><br />I see my starstruck fan, Alex, has bestowed that very inspiring type blog award upon your good self. Thus congrats to you and thanks to Manzanita for making me aware of you :) You do realise that the award is worth a whole lot more than an Oscar? Be well, my friend. I'm thinking of setting up a 'reality' blog show. 'Blogger's Got Talent!' Whatcha' reckon to that? And congrats to those you forwarded the award onto. Such as the adorable Manzanita. <br /><br />In kindness,<br /><br />Gary :)klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-91914150320453110102013-02-26T12:59:26.551-05:002013-02-26T12:59:26.551-05:00It only took me how long to get to reading your po...It only took me how long to get to reading your post and see that you have awarded me. Thanks! I try to be something other than annoying- so inspiring is great!<br />Maybe I should actually try posting at least one thing you don't know about me. I was shocked to see that you too are allergic to shellfish. I am so allergic I carry two epi-pens.

Are you still doing those damn migrains?
Ma...Robin,<br />Are you still doing those damn migrains?<br />Maybe it's because I don't get out much but I found Seth M. funny and entertaining. Song, soft shoe, corny jokes and a handsome dude who is into politics..... That's what my life is all about. Especially the corny part. <br />You don't drink. Me either. I hate any feeling in my body that competes with my mind and emotions. Those are the things that "I" control and I want it to stay that way. <br />No camera...... yet you take great pictures, thanks to your Mom. I had a very hard time on the change to digital. Used to have fine precision German lenses and now my image maker is the cheapest point and shoot.<br />Enjoy your life in Flor-ree-dah. I lived there 25 years and sent a bottle out. Maybe you can find it. Ha. <br />Thanks for the A-ward. <br />Love ya, ManziManzanitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06467261212623663365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-14005159436477094462013-02-25T23:41:09.631-05:002013-02-25T23:41:09.631-05:00Robin-
