Gladys has Snowless Random Thoughts 12-11-09

It is Friday again and time for Mrs. 4444 to present her Friday Fragments, which I made her Fragment of the Week. Yes I’m just that good.

Go on go over read her fragments, link yours and have a big old fragmented party. Then go on over to Ann Again and Again for your weekly Virtual Girls Night Out. Have a drink, even if it’s just water, read some stories and partake in her game. Also link your Friday to her Friday. *********************************************

I am happy and sad at the same time. No I’m not bi-polar my girls are both leaving for their Christmas trips today. I will miss them watching Friends and making cheese cakes. I will really miss those cheese cakes.

I am a sap for Christmas movies. I love the old movies but I will sit for hours watching the really hokey movies on Hallmark and Lifetime. Evidently I just can’t get enough of Peter Faulk being Max the Christmas Angel and Valerie Bertinelli finding her long lost schizophrenic brother.

My favorite Christmas movie of all time is Christmas in Connecticut with Barbara Stanwyck, not the one with Diane Cannon. What is yours?

Remember that Sesame Street song one of these things doesn’t belong?

One of these things is not like the others,

one of these things just doesn't belong,

Can you tell which thing is not like the others

by the time I finish my song?

This week’s overheard was in line at my local grocery store.
A woman was on her cell phone talking away the man in line behind her evidently decided he was part of the conversation.

Lady on phone: You would not believe her house. It was huge.

Man in linebehind lady on phone: Why thank you I didn’t think you had noticed.

Lady on phone turns and looks at man in a questioning way. And continues with her call.

Lady on phone: And she had painted the walls yellow.

Man in line: I have always liked yellow, but I would have painted them puce.

Again lady on the phone turns and looks at man in line behind her and said

I am talking to my friend on the phone. I am not talking to you.

Man in line: Well then talk to her somewhere else or include me in your conversation because we can all hear everything you are saying.

Lady on the phone goes back to her phone conversation and says: So Julie like I was saying some jerk wants to paint her house puce and is an idiot for trying to join our conversation.

And they say the Christmas spirit is dead and gone.
