Someone's Stalking Me


 

She bought out the entire top floor of our hotel. The entire place is in an uproar.  30 bags, Security at the entrance. Paparazzi outside and helicopters hovering.

She followed us to a fancy department store. And got us kicked out of the cafe where we were getting a nice hot cocoa and a bite to eat.  The whole place.  The staff came up to us and asked us to kindly leave our comfortable quarters and move into the more stiff and public place.  We grumbled and did as asked.

Lady Gaga.  Poor woman.  Stalked all the time and afraid to be recognized.  I walked past her a couple of times, I'm sure.  But I didn't even whisper it to Hubbend.  The girl had a stricken look when I recognized her.  Either that or it was one of her staff that was afraid of being fired.  Either way I feel for her.

I hope that she is still in awe of traveling, admiring the many splendors each place has.  Not getting tired of the same songs over and over again.  I hope she has enough anonymity left to enjoy each place.  To buy the stupid cheap tourist items made in China for loved ones back home.  And to really have FUN.

Because I have.

  2. You crack me up! And, yes, I'm sure LG has the pleasure of riches, but probably not the luxury of feeling she can ever be 'herself' again. Pretty ironic after she's worked so hard to successfully create a megastar 'self,' huh? OK, clearly it's time for me to get some sleep!

    I'm so glad you had fun . . . be sure to bring it home with you!!!

  3. What a funny coincidence. Last night my husband showed our guests a YouTube video of some frat boys singing a Lady Gaga song. There was much speculation about the woman herself.

  4. For a second there I was scared you'd be mean about Gaga (she is my current obsession, has been for a while now) then you just decided to be kind and understanding and extremely nice about it. Because that's who you are. ♥

It's Here

We got the moving truck rather unexpectedly. It's more expensive than Mr. Survival planned, so we're doing a lot of lifting, cardio, and squats. No. We're not doing the bootcamp in a trailer. We ARE moving things to the new garage, since we can't move in yet, but they're being kind enough to let us dump in a storage manner. Sorry. I'll have to beg your forgiveness and promise to update you. Eventually.

Flying With Concrete

Today I wanted to write about my dreams. Full of hope and bliss and fulfillment. Yeah, I sound about as light as a bucket of cement. Ready to fly away. Hang on, while I toss out the top of the pile. Maybe that will help me find my lofty aspirations. Nope. Thing is, I'm remembering today that I'm afraid of heights. Really. Once Hubbend made me climb up three stories of scaffolding. Broke it all down for me and left me no other choice. Made me feel irreplaceable. Yes, we must remember that I am crazy friends. Leave it to me to feel important by being told to go up a towering structure of death. I did it though. And I even wired a speaker while I was up there. But I'm still afraid of heights. So. Do you wanna help me out today? For every comment that tells me something someone wants to be able to do that they can't do now I will do one minute of exercise. Really. Because of my child care situation, it will have to be tomorrow morning. So have at it. ...

Hippity Hop

I hope it doesn't matter that it's been a week or so since my post on her...but I do have a fabulous special needs daughter.   THIS   and   THAT   are my most recent musings on Special Needs parenting. I'm not sure what I think about either one. It's about being out in public.   Thanks to Sunday at Adventures in Extreme Parenthood   I can handle this blog hop on a week as crazy as this.  I'm excited to visit all these excellent blogs. Stay tuned next week though, for updates on Chickadee's G-tube surgery, moving and The Beast and it's sugar-free diet.  Thanks for playing along at home. I really couldn't do it without you all. Oh, and visit my Facebook Page to see how my weigh-in went this week for GAG.   **I just figured out that  Super Mommy to the Rescue  and Autism Learning Felt  are the sponsoring blogs.  Please follow them if you link up!
