First off, I want to thank the Welcoming Commitee, who dropped by last night to say Hello and give me some encouraging words.

Thanks to Joanie, RWT and Moxie; and Joni, of course for making this all possible. ( h-m-m-m..........sounds like I am giving an acceptance speech----but that's another story......after I make my first film.)

Thanks to Joanie for spreading the word and getting my millions of readers over to this Blog!

The next few weeks will be a big experimentation for me, the techless wonder, to get this Blog Rolling(ha ha). Reminds me that I have to get over to that site and learn how to get it on my sidebar. To tell you the truth, I'm not sure exactly how it works.....someone rolls someone else and bingo!...you have one or the other person's link on your website. Someone can enlighten me to the real facts though, if you want.

In any case if you see strange or weird things going on inside this Blog, remember that the creator is still learning and my dear, sweet 'Peach on the Beach' is sort of a Guinea Pig.

Speaking of weird and strange, Greg who also came by to say hello (thanks) saw some out of this world formations on my Blog. He said something about the fact that when he ran his mouse over the image, parts of the chair disappeared and the logo would appear instead? Sort of like turning into a gelatinous mess........wooooooo (not time for Halloween yet.) I asked Joni if someone maybe had put something weird in his 'cookies'. (aw come on guys....don't you remember when they were doing those acid tinged potato chips at parties?) It's just a cyber joke. Can't I do double entendres anymore?

Wow, I should have done an extended entry. Just found out about that.....what fun. This MT is just a dream to write on. But if you see errors, it's because I'm not sure exactly how to go back and edit. I think when I went back I couldn't fine the entry any more.

I will make you guys proud of me.....one of these days, I will become a real geek and then what fun.........I'll come over and hack your website........

While you are reading this, you might as well sit down and stretch out on one of the beach chairs and let the waves run over your toes....Hey , it's Spring......forget the snow and come over to the Beach!!!

I am a little tired from being a the Website construction site all day. So look around and let me know what you think.

Sorry but the photo gallery won't be completed for a bit. I will let you know.

We received a fancy cream colored large square envelope yesterday in the
mail. It was addressed to MR. Luigi Mascarpone. (thats mahs-car-ponay to
you).In the left hand , return address corner It simply said*The
President's Dinner*. On the back it read:*The President's Dinner
*Washington D.C. 20077 * National Republican Senatorial Committee*
National Republican Congressional Committee*

This is where the fun
starts. Luigi opened the letter and began to read. /Dear Friend, It is
with pride that Barbara and I invite you to support our Republican Party
by attending the President's Dinner in Washington D.C. on Wednesday, May
21, 2003. Because you are a valued friend and supporter of the President
and our entire family, I have enclosed your personal invitation to this
very special event. ......For almost three decades, Party loyalists like
you have come together from all across the nation to pay tribute to our
Republican President and First Lady at the President's Dinner........../
Luigi's coffee brown eyes got even bigger as he read the letter in
amazement. I Couldn't help it. I was starting to laugh so hard that I
was interrupting Luigi's ongoing reading of the letter. "Is there
something you want to tell me, Luigi? Now that we're married I think you
should tell me everything. Are you really a Republican in Liberal
Sheep's clothing??!!" But i just kept laughing as he continued to read
all the info that was inside the envelope. There was a little insert
entitled "George W. Bush Limited Edition Photo". It read: / In honor of
your support and dedication to President Bush, The President's Dinner
has commissioned a limited-edition, presidential photo which will be
accompanied by a note from President Bush. Collector's
quality...........is yours ......with your gift of $150 or more.

The Purple and sliver invitation was impressive and went on to give the
address: Washington Convention Center with Cocktail Reception at 6:00
p.m. and a $2500 a plate dinner to follow. I was trying to figure out
from Luigi, what kind of a list he could possibly be on. I told Luigi
that they were obviously confusing him with another Luigi with the exact
same name. I must explain something to you here. Luigi is more to the
left of center than I am.

It actually was a lot of fun getting that in
the mail. I think, though, I am a little disappointed that I really
can't go to that dinner. I don't have the $2500 to get me in. But It
would have been so nice to crash the party and just sit there like I was
a good little Republican Babe, so I could hear what they had to say
about the Democrats. Hey, RWT----I sure hope you got one of
these.......If you didn't you can complain to the Republican National
Committee and ask them why they wasted a perfectly beautiful invitation
on a bleeding heart liberal!!.. ........Heck don't make waves....I'll
send you Luigi's .

Well that whole post was just destroyed! Sammie my cat was just sitting
on the mousepad. It's kind of hard to move your mouse around a big pile
of fur. He just pawed my fleece jacket. He looks around the room, or
down at my fingers skating over the keyboard. Then he stares at me with
his pale blue eyes inside his charcoal grey face and wonders why I don't
want to play with him right now. He looks sort of lonely and forlorn.
Whoops. Where did all those 99999999999999's come from? Animals have a
way of getting to the soft core of your soul. I feel guilty now that I
had to move him off the mousepad after my post disappeared. I have two
cats. The other one is Xena (Zeenie) who is catnapping in the other
room. Sammie has left the computer room and probably gone off to join
Zeenie. I guess he isn't too happy with my choice of the computer over
him. I really do believe that many cats have nine lives. I have been
through enough with both of them to know that firsthand. I wrote an
entry once about poor sick Zeenie in one of my March 2002 entries last
year. I think I have spent as much on cat insurance as I do on my own
health insurance. I once had a cat get sick and die on me. But not
before I had paid in hundreds of dollars. The financial burden was bad
enough. But I also had to deal with the loss and mourning. Anyway I
thought Cat Insurance was the way to go the next time around. The cats
seem to be ok. But their mistress is ill today. My throat is gone; so
its a good thing this is not an audio post. My friend thinks I have
MARS. It's suppose to be a mild form of SARS. I really doubt it. It's
just a cold. I'm taking my cold-ease and tooling around my email today
back and forth with Jonielectric, hopefully, getting my new website
closer to completion. One note about the flaky no-shows for the
Weblogger Meetup for Wednesday the 16th. Just got an e-mail that the
Weblogger Meet-up has been cancelled. (just as well; probably couldn't
go tomorrow anyway.). The interesting thing is that there are about 10
locations throughout SoCal, and ALL of them were cancelled. I heard that
New York and many other cities are much more reliable. This is about the
third one in a row that's been cancelled. I wonder if that means
anything about us L. A. Webloggers? I went to a couple of meetings last
summer in Santa Monica. None of the participants there were flaky at
all. I had a great time . I'm not sure why it hasn't picked up more out
here? Maybe all the flaky webloggy people are moving to L.A.? I must
further delineate the definition of 'faky webloggy' . It excludes of
course all of the webloggers I know! Maybe everyone has a MARS cold like
me? Dennis, I do not think I have MARS!!

Today is my Birthday. Many thoughts have been popping up in my brain all
week-end. A lot of it is deja vu and unimportant, insignificant events
of my youth. It is interesting in the sense of reflection and
contemplation of who you really are as a person. It is enlightening for
me, anyway, to realize that bits and pieces of our personality have
always been there. If we could remember as far back when we were one or
two years old, we could probably say......oh yeah that was so typical of
me. But there is always your mother to remind you of what you were like
as a kid. My Mom does that periodically. She also compares me with my
brother and sister. I'm not sure exactly why it comes up in the
conversation sometimes, but inevitably it does. One of her favorite
(most repeated) stories is what a horrible eater I was when I was a
baby. She said I would close my mouth and my poor Mom had to try to pry
it open with the baby spoon. She was very concerned that I was going to
starve. She explained to me how 'good' my brother and sister were
because they opened up their mouths wide, and made their mouths like
tunnels as they were instructed, to let the choo choo train in. But of
course with me it was an entirely different story. And then she would
say that to make matters worse, my Dad would come by and say "cookie?"
and give me one to chew on. My Mother stated that she was so ticked off
at my Dad for doing that. And from the way she talks she hasn't forgiven
him yet. She shouldn't have been so worried, because based on what she
told me I did love those California oranges so much that she would
gladly give me as much as I wanted. Because apparently I didn't eat much
of anything else. But I ate so much of it that I would end up crying
with really bad colic. I must explain to you that it is one of the few
things about me that is no longer true of my personality. Because I just
love to eat!!! I once did one of those internet quizzes on someone's
Blog. One of the questions was: "Which would you rather do? Have sex or
eat? " I have to tell you that I really had to think very hard and must
have spent a lot of time mulling over that one question! Hey did you
really think I was going to tell you what I answered on my public Blog!
Jonielectric and I are still working on my website. It is coming
together little by little. I hope that it will be up and running very
soon. Maybe after it's all set up I'll be more likely to answer those
kinds of questions. Remember these important phrases until next time. (
