I know this is the 2nd post today, but I had to mention it. Fathers Day is approaching June 17, 2007. Now, my husband who is not a father (yet), has emailed me the webpage for the Levenger store. Which of course, has some wonderful items like the the Bomber Jacket Messenger, the Infinity Journal an my personal favorite Briefolio.

So, please look at the Levenger Webpage for your buying needs for Fathers Day Gifts, not just your normal Tie. Soon, I will be buying my husband something special from Levenger, but for now he is just dreaming. Especially, when we can visit a store again, which should be around the Fall when we go visit his family out in Chicago. My favorite which I mentioned before is the one in Water Place Tower, but I see there is one in Memphis and Virginia, we might have to take a ride soon to Virginia.

On the Fox News webpage, today I saw two very interesting stories. The first was about Adam Yehiye Gadahn, who is working with Al Qaeda warning the US to pull out or there will be worse attacks then 9/11 or Virginia Tech. What I find interesting and very disturbing is this man was born Adam Pearlman in California. He is being charged with Treason against the US government the first time since 1952.

He has been arrested for attacking his mentor in the Muslim culture because he felt he was too friendly with the Jews and did not wear the approiate dress, HELLO you were born Jewish an a American. Why go against your birth country, what is so great about Al Qaeda? I have nothing against Muslims if that is what you believe but to turn against everything? Very confused..

The 2nd story was an interview with Brian Morgenstern who was the man who turned in the Six Muslims who were planning on attacking Fort Dix. He felt he had to come forward for his family an for the US, he believes in his country and truly believes everyone needs to step forward an prevent these attacks. He is a young man who did the right thing, an then you hear of another young man who has decided that as Americans we are all wrong. I commend Brian Morgenstern for doing the right thing. What would you do? I would like to think I would do the right thing but you have no idea how you would react until it thrown at you. I am just putting this out to the universe.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day. Well it is now 4 weeks until my class reunion. I have lost a total of 20lbs. at this time, I am trying for at least 10 more by the reunion, but am taking it in stride an it is what it is. Yesterday, I worked out 45 minutes cardio then went up to the pool and swam laps for awhile.

This morning I did 20 minutes cardio because I got up late for work. I will either do another tape when I get home tonight or swim depending on what time I get home. I have a group for dinner tonight so I have to stay a little while for that. I have been eating 6x a day, which is so much for me, but it actually is working by losing weight, so I am very happy. We are going out to dinner with our friends on Sunday night, we have not seen them in awhile an we are going to a place called, "Melting Pot" we have never been there, but realize it is a Fondue place, so we are so excited, we love Fondue.

I am very happy we are not moving for awhile, the husband is still looking for a better position but at least for the next month we are pretty settled. Yesterday, I called all my friends and family to see what their plans were for the holiday. Of Course, Thomas was having a blow out with a band an about 1, 000 people coming through his yard and house. He is definitely, never one to have a quiet party. I remember some of our blow outs when we lived together. This time though I was not jealous that I wasn't there. I laid by the pool, worked on my tan read two more books and just enjoyed the quiet. Gosh, I am so old. Believe me, sometimes I want to go to a big party, but yesterday was not one of them. Claudette was working of course, a double shift at "Mystic Pizza" for all the tourists in town. Mystic I am sure was jumping the beginning of the Summer Season. I do miss Mystic, but for now Winston-Salem is my home.

This week, I am in a Scrabble Contest (Stop Laughing), they could not find the final partner. I have explained how bad I am but they needed 1 more person. We will see how they feel after Thursday night. Have a great day.

This weekend, we drove on Saturday night to Morgantown, WV. In order for the husband to have a job interview at 10am at the resort that is thinking of hiring him. His interview again took 3.5 hours. I hung out in the room until noon then took myself on a job to see the area an apartments if he is offered the position. NO WAY!!!

Luckily, after seeing the property he realizes that the Resort needs so much work. First it needs atleast 5 million dollars in the cosmetics of the resort, the condo we stayed in would be nice if the wallpaper wasn't coming down, there was hair in the bathroom tub (not mine) all the windows need to be replaced an some new colors an bedding. For people that work there, on a Sunday of a weekend you had the GM, Assistant GM, Director of Catering all working because of 4 functions. Also, because the HR director who was suppose to be Manager on Duty called in sick. They obviously, do not have good Banquet Managers/Captains can not run functions. I know the GM is only 3 weeks there, I liked and respected him alot, but he has his work cut out for him.

My husband likes a challenge but this is huge in an area we both did not love. The best part of the area was the Lake, but it is still not the ocean. So, we are staying put for the moment and I am very happy about that. I have really begun to enjoy Winston Salem, we have made some friends, and I was looking forward to the summer here. We had planned on being here 2 years before moving again, saving money etc... I am not saying if the right opportunity was not offered we would not seriously think about it.

I have decided not to dream of any particular area anymore and take what life offers, this is an adventure and we will continue to grow an learn more about the United States and what feels right for both of us.

I read Fox News on line at least 3 or 4 x a day, when I should be working but my work is boring to me so a surf the internet. I do realize that is wrong since I am getting paid to actually do some work, I play solitaire on line too but that is another discussion.

Some points I saw on Fox in the last day or so:: AMY FISHER AN JOEY BUTUFFUCO are now moving in together, at least his 2nd wife Evanka did not get shot in the head. Did you see Mary Jo who is back to using her maiden name on Larry King Live? I think she has endured so much from this man an should be angry. I feel bad for his kids, so obviously 15 years ago when he was denying anything between him an Amy Fisher he lied, what no charges for sexual assault of a minor or is there a time limit on that?

President Bush was in New London, CT giving a speech at the Coast Guard Academy to the graduates. I was on the New London Day this morning an yes they printed his speech, they also showed pictures of the protestors especially the fact that the graduates had to walk right through them to get to the graduation. At about 1pm I went back on the sight then they had the people in support of President Bush, why didn't you print both in the beginning of the day? Most likely, because the New London day likes to show President Bush and all republicans in a bad light. Did you notice last week no mention of the Republican Debate in South Carolina but a day after the Democratic one two weeks prior all over the front page. HMM!! What do we think of bad coverage or a bias paper?

Paris Hilton has found religion on her way to jail, isn't that suppose to happen once she goes in or is she trying to prove, she shouldn't have to go because she has found God?

Jordan Sparks won American Idol and the Ice Skater won Dancing with the Stars. It is amazing what you can find out on the Fox News Station webpage, of course they have all the coverage of the war and the crimes committed across the country. I like Fox news, I respect them, sometimes I can not believe what seems so important to them. Right now, it is the Chicago bank robbery, now obviously these robbers watch TV they knew when to hit, an how not to leave any clues an even wore bullet proof vests by the way where to you buy those? WalMart?

You would think when you sell one wouldn't you be a bit suspious? Or is it normal to sell one the whole gun issue I realize can be bought out of the back of someones car, but the Vest, that is scary that now criminals know how to protect themselves, I gues that means now Cops need to learn to shoot for the head right?

Jealousy - Meaning Envy, Resentment etc. My jealousy is not what someone has or who they are it is the fact that I could not be there for someone I care about.

On Monday, was my good friend Thomas's birthday, and he was going to Anthony J's in Mystic one of my favorite places to go out to eat in Mystic. He was going with friends of his from work, I was happy for him but so very jealous that is wasn't me taking him out and celebrating another year with him. I am huge on Birthday's. One year, I took Thomas to Savannah Georgia for his birthday weekend. We had so much fun!! It started on the plane he is afraid of heights and hates to fly, so we did the natural thing we had some drinks, we were a bit obnoxious that even the flight attendant shoved bottles of booze at us to shut us up!! Now a days, that would not happen they will not even let you on the plane if you are bit loud, rude and a bit drunk.

Another year, when we lived together we had a blow out of a party at our house for his birthday, or it could of been mine or both to celebrate. I miss Thomas, he and I went through alot together but always knew we would be in each others lives. Even when he moved to Austin, TX for a year, I went an visited him for a week while he was there. While he was away I met my husband so when he came back sometimes it felt like a tuck of war between him and my husband. In the end it worked out, we would hang out an still have a good time an talk. At Christmas time when we were home in CT. I saw Thomas an we played games, drank laughed and I didn't want it to end but the trip never seems long enough.

So my jealousy is I live so far from my friends an family an wish I could be there for every milestone. Do not get me wrong, we made the right decision for us at the time to move south, but every once in awhile I wish we were still close to everyone I love an miss terribly. I am sure Thomas had a wonderful birthday at Anthony J's an hopefully had a Martini for me...

Well, it is only 5 weeks until my class reunion. I still can not believe I have been out of high school for 25 years. I can still remember all the highs and lows of that time as if they were just yesterday. When I had friends then I didn't because I either did something or said something to push them away. See even today, I blame myself and not my hormones raging or the fact some of the girls in my circle were a bit b*****.

Well, still working out like crazy, I did get on the scale this morning down 2 more lbs. which makes my grand total 16lbs lost. Not alot by the standards of how much I need to lose, but it is ok, I am toning up, my clothes fit better and I bought my dress for the reunion the other day an it is a smaller dress size than what I have been in over 18 months. YEAH!! Of course, now I need shoes and a purse, my husband thought it was just a dress I don't think so...

I have started watching the Biggest Loser on Style network, granted the one I am watching is the 2nd season but it is still amazing to see how far they have all come from the first day. I would love to go on the show, but there is no way I could have 3 months off from my job, granted I may not make it the whole 3 months but that would be my goal if I got on the show. I think these people are wonderful an I give them complete credit for keeping it up even when they get home. Definitely, an inspirational show if you have been overweight more so than all the infommericals on TV today, get a pill "SLIM QUICK", or "TRIM SPA", an lose weight. They are doing it the old fashion way, not through a pill but diet and exercise.

Ironically, my sisters have been preaching me this for about 10 years, they are both into working out an feeling an looking better. I realize if I miss one day I feel guilty and have to do twice as much the next day, never would I have thought it possible. If you keep on a routine for two weeks, it becomes habit. I admit those first two weeks were really tough for me. Even now, I should be doing 45 minutes of Cardio but I want to sleep a little later so I have been doing 20 minutes, if I had a 30 minute tape it would be perfect.

For my class reunion I am going alone, so all I really want to do is go in an feel good in my own skin an not as if I am 17 years old an being judged by these people again. The fact my husband is not coming I am sure will be talked about, he knows no one and would not enjoy himself so why make him come to it. He doesn't even attend his own High School reunion, I would not subject him to mine.

Well, my husband received a call today from a place in West Virginia for a Wedding Specialist postion. When we had decided to move out of CT the first place we were looking was West Virginia, but when we drove there, not impressed. The place we stayed was outdated around 1973, and there did not seem to be alot around.

Now, the place looking to hire is the same place we stayed 2 1/2 years ago but has gone through a $1 million dollar renovation an I belive new owners. Also, there is alot to do there, and the water is right there, the mountains, it is beautiful. We did find a great dockside restaurant we enjoyed very much when we were there and a Spa. So of course, I am thinking we were either too hasty in our decision an bad exploring or we were correct and this could be a huge mistake. I do figure though if they are willing to relocate us, and it is near water which I have come to realize in the 2 years here in North Carolina I need water, what do we really have to lose? The husband seems flattered, which he should. I had applied to this company myself had an interview in Charlotte an was not hired. Then I applied for him in Greensboro and they called him for West Virginia instead.

We have gotten used to moving around in the last few years, I still would like to settle down and be in Key West, but sometimes life takes us on different routes. Part of me always thinks I will get back to Connecticut but the more I read about its prices going up, taxes going up and people moving out of Connecticut I think we made a good decision even though it does not feel that way when I miss my family an friends like crazy. I am going home for 48 hours at the end of the month an I am so very happy about it, even though it is such a short time. I keep working out everyday and working to be tanned so I at least look good or at least halfway decent at my class reunion.

Good Morning Readers, as if... Yesterday, I cried at work, and then I realized it was not the first time. I believe since the first time I started working in the Hotel/Restaurant business in 1984 in Farmington CT I have cried over a dozen times. Never in front of clients (that I can remember) but definately behind the scenes. I am not a cryer, I cry when I get frustrated, because I can not hit so not ladylike besides what am I going to hit?

Why do you ask do I cry? The reason definately vary but the theme running through is clients have no respect for my position or basically anyone in my field. It is as if we are not really working as if they are right? My husband an I have decided to write a book (or shortstory) on experiences we have had in all the years we have both been in the business for myself it has been well over 20 years, for him about 12 years. He trained in the restaurant business in New Orleans, could he have been in better hands to learn this trade? Not really, it definately has some of the most innovative, fresh restaurants in the world.

New Orleans expects the best in the field, and if they can not find them, they will train why doesn't everyone feel that way? So, if you have any stories please share them, I would love to hear what other people think.

I do not watch American Idol, I watch the first shows to laugh at the people who try out and should not even try, and I usually watch the finale. This year, I heard all about Sanjaya an still did not want to watch it, but last night there was nothing on, so I flipped over to it. I had seen Melinda Doolittle at the try outs and she was amazing, so when it came down to her, Jordan and Blake, I thought like the rest of the world she would be in the final two.

So, I was amazed as was Paula, Randy and Simon (did you see his face) when the public had kept Blake over her. I think all three were talented, but Melinda was so much better than Blake by a long shot. Now, I am hoping Jordan can go all the way, she is only "17" an what a voice on her. I know Melinda will have a huge career even without being Season 6's winner. Have you seen Kelly Clarkson's latest video she has definately broken out of the American Idol pop culture.

Chris Doherty last season's prediction who was voted off May 10, 2006 has been on the top of the charts, and of course Clay Aiken has so many albums out there, an is doing amazing an these two didn't win, and let us not forget Jennifer Hudson who was voted off, got an Oscar this year for her performance an amazing voice for "Dreamgirls". So, even though I am sure Melinda is upset right now, she is a strong woman an look at the successes from the people who did not win. Go for it Melinda I look forward to your next step.

Did you see Elliott Yamin last night? Now, he has hair, he did a great job it must feel great to perform in front of the judges who are now not judging you but just enjoying. I may never be a full American Idol fan but I admit I will watch the finale.

Last night was the end of my "Gilmore Girls", it was a great way to end the show. I did cry some tears, especially when Richard Gilmore praised his daughter and when Loreali admitted that she would continue Friday night dinners. I have gotten to love Starrs Hollow and the actors who did some amazing work.

Richard an Emily Gilmore were incredible to watch and when they were on screen you never knew what was going to happen. Emily is a mother who had lost her daughter for keeping her to close, that she didn't want to lose her granddaughter so in the first season she felt the only way to keep them close was making them live up to their obligations. You borrow money I get Friday night dinners, one of my favorite episodes is with Marion Ross as Richard's mother, who can not stand Emily and is down right rude to her at every turn. It was fun to watch Emily squirm a little before getting her own revenge in a later episode in the 2nd season.

Of course, my favorite Emily moment is when she told Logan's mother off, classic WASP!! Sense, I am a WASP I compeletly loved that moment.

Kirk (Sean Gunn) was so much fun, he could not have been more bizarre, my favorite of him was when he was trying to buy the house Luke wanted, an Luke asked where he got the money? His response was classic, I have worked 50 jobs all these years, live at home so all I do is save.. Could he have been anymore WIERD, and he even had a girlfriend Lulu which was strange in its own way.

The end was great, Luke and Loreali finally getting back together which we knew from the very first scene of the show they should be together. My only disappointment this season was Luke's daughter April she was great..

I will miss my Tuesday's night watching Gilmore Girls but I have already acquired the First Season on DVD and will be getting the 2nd season in a few weeks, until I have them all, so I can always go back to Starrs Hollow whenever I need to feel better. They did the Show justice by having a perfect ending. Good bye Starrs Hollow I will miss you.

This weekend was a week in between pay days, I can not really get used to getting paid every two weeks. No way can I imagine getting paid on a monthly basis. The husband and I had the weekend together, it was his Saturday off. We hung out in the morning on Saturday then we went to the bookstore an turned in some books, we got a credit an cash.. Now, being we are on 10 days with no money an actually are carpooling to work to save on gas. He has been at work 90 minutes early everyday because I work at 8am and he does not work until 9am an I drop him off between 730am an 745am every day. Having even a little cash is dangerous, we got a little more gas an being that is it up to $2.93 when we got some, an now is $3.02, I do mean very little.

Instead we used the credit bought some books went home and sat by the pool, an read and hung out, we did get a $3.00 bottle of white wine, which worked for me very well. Had a great dinner, an on Sunday, I finished my book from Sat. realized it is a two parter went back to the bookstore bought more books, then we treated ourselves to Ice Cream cones. It was a great weekend. We just hung out, talked, laughed and read, I actually did not watch as much TV as I usually do. I did drag him to "Marshall's" only for a bit to look at dresses for my class reunion. I found (3) I love and will go back this week to try on and see if they still have Lay away, I wonder if people still do that.

Of course, the dress I want is $50.00 and the shoes are $40.00, so Layaway would work good for me. I really do enjoy just hanging out with my husband and makes me appreciate it when we do go out for a treat, even an Ice Cream cone was great, it got us out of the house, and it made me feel on top of the world. We have downsized out of necessity but also because in 18 months we are planning on making our final move to Key West, FL. For 18 months we can be careful with our money, we have for these last 6 months what is the difference?

I know I watch way too much TV when we have no money, but this weekend didn't feel like I needed to lose myself it felt like I should stop being so selfish an realize all we have that has nothing to do with possessions or money it is about loving someone else.

I want to acknowledge that I was wrong the last two weeks has been new Ghost Whisperer and from the websight, it looks like I missed quite the season finale. I will watch the next one, an wait for summer reruns. I am over the fact my Gilmore Girls will not be back, maybe there will be another good show put into the time slot there is always "hope"..

What is up with the weather lately? Tornadoes in the midwest, wild fires all over, flooding? It is nuts, no I do not think it is the end of the world but it does seem a bit strange or does it? We were talking at lunch how when we were little, I know what the statement makes people think of their parents/grandparents talking about hard ships we could never imagine.

I was remembering the 1978 blizzard, Hurricane Gloria 1984 I believe are the two worst storms I have ever experienced in my life, the Blizzard I was "13" years old and Hurricane Gloria I was in college, long time for no real major storm. I now live in North Carolina so alot of the people I work with remember Hurricane Hugo as the worst storm. Which when I remember seeing the images on TV, I thought it looked horrible. Or that Earthquake out in California the opening day of the World Series, you would call it a subway series, because it was Oakland A's and the SF Giants against each other. None, of us will forget Hurricane Katrina and the devastation in New Orleans those images were very painful. Even close to 2 years later, it is so very sad what happened to the city and people.

I have never seen or felt an earthquake, or a Tornado in my life, those scare me more than a blizzard or Hurricane, maybe if I had lived through Hugo or Katrina I would feel different. It seems storms are becoming more fierce and more frequent then when I was a kid growing up in New England. Am I just imagining it?

A few weeks ago, I wrote that we had saved the "Gilmore Girls" for one more season, well as it turns out next week May 15, 2007 marks the end of the show. It has been 7 great seasons but the stars, Lauren Graham and Alexis have decided it is enough for them. I don't know if it was lack of money or the fact both ladies have been doing more movies and may want to move on with their careers.

It is upsetting to me, but very understandable, so the next two shows hopefully, will make all the storylines come together, I hate it when shows go off without tying up all the lose ends. I do not know what I will watch now on Tuesday nights. Monday and Tuesdays have become my favorite night for Television. My other night is Fridays, I love Ghost Whisperer but have not had a new episode in almost 3 weeks and of course Numbers. There isn't even a Reality Show I love right now, I will watch Work out which has its last episode for season two this week, but Shear Gensis could not get into, I don't care who wins as long as it is not Tyson.

In the summer, I get into Project Runway or Top Chef, an Rock Star, but I do not think this summer there will be a Rock Star show, as I read on one of the blogs a few weeks ago, Rock Star, Supernova is restructing and changing their names, basically, it means the original members a few have jumped ship. Besides, who wants to work with Lucas Rossi, a want a be an not even half as talented as Dilhana, it is for the best she didn't win.

So, Stars Hollow is coming to a close, hopefully, it will always be in your heart. I am still looking for my own Stars Hollow, the characters were wonderful. I have season 1 on Video, am on the look out for Season 2. As we say good by to Gilmore Girls, try to remeber how much fun it was while it lasted.

I am going to vent for a moment, please bare with me, if you can't handle it do not read any further.

MY BOSS IS A P****!!! Yesterday, we all received emails from the home office how great we are doing this year in sales and how this new team is setting the hotel up for success. This morning at our weekly sales meeting, which I call DM Meetings (demotivating), for the first 30 minutes I felt we were all in the principals office being scolded. It started with door cards not up for the meetings, (come to find out were done and Banquets lost them in her office found 10am today). Next was smoking breaks only 2 people smoke in the office and they are hourly employees who punch out for their 15 minutes break in AM and PM. The list goes on for about 30 minutes, I made the mistake at sitting at the end due to I knew I had an appointment coming any time now.

We are professional sales people, all of us knows what we are doing especially in the Catering side, all of us work sometimes 14 hours a day 6 or 7 days a week depending on the group, an he is says " We are not on Flex time so if you are scheduled to 5:30pm even if you came in at 6:30am for your group you need to be here until 5:30pm." He can bite my butt, do you think he stays past 4pm on a Friday unless the GM pulls him into a meeting, which he does I swear he does for a power trip will call them in at 4:30pm on Friday afternoon an the meeting will last at least 2 hours. Because, I am so angry right now I hope it happens tonight, due to I came in at 7:10am for my group an will be here until 6:30pm or 7pm for my group in house.


My question to the universe is how awful is your boss? Last year, my boss was a twit, an I had no respect for her, so that was harder than this. Normally, I can understand where he is coming from but in the last three weeks any respect I had for him is gone especially when he threw someone under the bus for his mistake.

For the last few weeks, I have been reading the story in the New London Day in regards to the boy who videotaped another boy getting beaten up. Well, New London County took this case an made an example out of this boy. He has been fined and sent to prison. They are saying he was accountable for his actions and did nothing to stop the fight, which the victim had to change schools, and still has some physical limitations because of the fight.

I was just looking at Fox news an they were showing a case of the same thing except this boy is being attacked by 2 guys and someone is filming it why? I hope the kid filming it is aware he is just as guilty at the thugs who are committing the crime. You have a moral obligation to help someone in distress not to film it an think I didn't participate all I did was film it. Oh, how very upstanding of you.

I appauld New London County for holding these boys accountable, I do not care that they are under the age of 17 they are still responsible for their actions or in these cases lack of actions. What thrill are you getting by filming someone getting beaten up? What happens if it becomes more fatal?

What are we teaching kids of today, that you don't have to answer for your actions an you can sell everything on the computer.

Ok, I did get to see George Clooney yesterday, no did not talk to him, he was going from the set to the his car. HE IS SO GOOD LOOKING even in person!!! He smiled at the crowd I was standing in so of course, he was smiling at me inpeticular (B******), well that is my spin anyway.

Still no Renee sightings and the filming here in Winston-Salem is over they have moved on somewhere else in North Carolina. It is really ok, I just wanted to see him, how pathetic, no actual contact just a sighting an I am happy about that. What kind of world is this? That even though we will never actually meet our idols just seeing a glimpse of them going from point A to Point B makes us happy.

I will write another post today, but wanted to keep you updated because I know how riveting my posts are I am so giggling right now.. I know my traffic on my blog or lack of it but it is really ok, because I do enjoy writing.

What is it about celebrities that make us mere mortals feel like little school girls? There is a movie being made a block away from where I work in Winston-Salem, NC an everyday I go out to see if I can spot one, who you may ask GEORGE CLOONEY, RENEE ZELLWEGGER, JOHN KARWASKI ( the office) an STEPHEN ROOT, JOHNATHAN PRYCE who I actually saw. I do not want to bother them or even take a picture I just want to spot them.

Now, Renee has been around a few times an alot of people in my office have seen her, and John K., I hear Mr. Pryce is very nice man an was out for dinner locally last night. They are human just like the rest of us, but for some reason because they are "celebrities" we feel the need to see them. As if, by being close to them we become special or something. I would love to become friends with Renee she just seems nice, I realize that is not going to happen but it is a nice thought. If I actually saw George I would most likely faint, he is just so good looking. He is not even on my list of who I can cheat on my husband with an get away with it. My top 3 are 1. John Cusack 2. Luke Perry an 3. Ed Harris, now realize that 2 of mine change all the time, but the Number 1 spot is always for John Cusack. I love smart, cute men, I know I am in no way the league of Antonio, Brad or George so why even think if you could meet them they would fall madly in love with you?

My husbands top three are Salema Hayek and Halle Berry, Angelica Jolie, now he has no complex in thinking he is not worthy of these incredibly beautiful women. I wish I had his confidence even if it is just a game. I admit, it is fun to watch all the going on for a movie an the crew memebers who are all so great, they are fun an work hard. It brings some excitement to this city. I think more movie people should come to Winston-Salem, NC.

Last night, I was watching Mystic Pizza, an the last scene I saw 4 people I knew from mystic who were extras in the movie. I was in Europe when it was made an then when Armistad was filmed there I was on away too, so this is the closest I have come to seeing a movie being made. It is exciting an fun an now can not wait for the movie to see all the places I have been that they have filmed at. The movie is called "Leatherheads', so watch out for it when it comes to theatres near you.

I may not see any stars but it is still fun to try, oops it is time to go "STAR GAZING" my afternoon run...
