The Musings of the Absolutely Fabulous Ms. N.

I finally managed to pick up a copy of "Homicide" by David Simon at my local BN. Every other time I went to look for it they were sold out this last time I decided to give it one more shot and there it was. I am a huge fan of the tv show (mmmm Tim Bayliss) so I naturally wanted to read the book. So far I am about 1/4 of the way thru it and it is fantastic. I am a cop junkie and always thought that I was better slated for a life on the force so this book is filling this void for me. I also managed to pick up a used copy of the first 2 seasons of the show from Ebay.

Here are some great Homicide quotes:

Pembleton: You're not Catholic and you took communion?
Bayliss: Yeah. Is that wrong?
Pembleton: If my god wins, you're screwed.

Bayliss: You never say please. You never say thank you.
Pembleton: Please don't be an idiot. Thank you.

Bayliss: I'm a detective, Frank. I'm a keen observer of the human condition. I pick up on the subtlest clues, I react to the slightest suggestion. In short, I deduct.
Pembleton: Who told you?
Bayliss: Brodie.

Kellerman: You sure you want me with you?
Bayliss: Yeah sure, why not?
Kellerman: I don't know. Uh, last time we worked together you were kind of snarky. Bayliss: Snarky?
Kellerman: Yeah, snarky. You know, from the ancient Greek, meaning butthead.

To my court jester:

Thank you for referring to me as "Her Highness". It's nice to know that I am treated to such an honor. I will forever cherish this title you have bestowed upon me and I promise to live up to my name. I will forever be your queen and you will always be my court fool (Fulana). Your antics amuse me and allow me to appreciate how far I have come (and how low you have fallen). Now kiss my ring and get back to work.

Sincerely,
Her Royal Highness DivineMsN

I found it! I have been telling Mr. K for the past two years about the Lou Monte Xmas song "Dominic The Donkey". I love this stupid song. Here's a web site that plays the song!

" The label on the inside says he's made in Brooklyn."

So this morning I start my car and no problem. Then, I turn the car off and go back to my apt because I left my cell phone. Guess what? The car won't freaking start. Actually, it does crank and then nothing. I am guess dead battery, Mr. K said it might be the alternator. Effing wonderful. Let's see how much this is going to cost.

I feel really "Bleh" today. Work is really becoming a chore and all I want to do is go to bed in my pjs. I realized that I haven't done any sewing in weeks. Maybe that is what my problem is. I think its the weather. Plus I have been feeling under the weather lately. (Weather connected? Hmm)? Maybe I'll break out a pattern tonite.

Sorry about the lack of posts lately. Things have been busy with a side project. I wont post anymore here because I don't want to jeopardize it. Let's just say that I am hoping to have some good news by the the of the month. Oh and by the way my 31st bday is tomorrow. I was planning on taking the day off but guess who is the good employee who is coming in for a half-day tomorrow? That's right, me.

I was sad to see that in my little town in NJ we are a hotbed of white supremacy.

How cute is this?

Today I had a Hershey kiss that was filled with peanut butter. It was delish. When a peanut butter cup is too much peanut for you, try this little beauty.
