now that puts me in a good mood.

Lately I have been searching for things to put me in a good mood. Here are my top ten things, complete with pictures and links, so you can discover them too!

Caution: this is a very superficial list, I did not put things like : family, friends, Christ, or my hubby on here, all those make me extremely happy, but this is my list of physical things that make me happy :)

1. Breyers Fried Ice cream flavor ice cream

(which was buy 1 get 1 at harris teeter!!)












2. Regular Mt. Dew














3. Vampire Novels...(okay maybe this one is cheesy, but I LOVE them!!)















4. Music by The White Stripes and Maroon 5
















5. Watching Lost, Heroes, or TrueBlood













6. Tennis Shoes and Comfy Jeans














7. Chinese Food...especially beef and garlic sauce from The Golden China or home made Red Curry chicken....yum


8. A nice walk at Duke Gardens


9. A trip to Nags Head, NC


10. Going out to the dog park with Lela. Or Shopping at AC Moore :)

my two favorite shows

okay, so im a little behind on holly wood and have no idea who is married to who or who arrived with whom at the golden globes. So, I was surprised to come across this bit of "old news"....two actors from my two all time favorite shows are married! Carrie preston and Michael Emerson,
(This is "Ben" from LOST and "Arlene" from TrueBlood )...anyway, I found this interesting, they are rather cute together.

A love/ hate relationship

If you're like me you love TrueBlood some of the time and hate it others. The books by Charlaine Harris are much better than the TV show, but its so nice to see it in person. Its just too much to resist! So, for all of you who wish TrueBlood was better, or who dont like it because it does not follow the books, I have compiled a list of You Tube videos so you can watch only the good parts of the series. Of course, these clips do not encompass all of the series as I didn't see the need to include everything. Some of the clips have some bad acting as well, but you get that with almost every tv show now and then. So, here we go:

p.s. I apologize for any language that may be used in these clips, it is hard to find clips that do not include bad language in True Blood, and the first few are especially bad. However, I have left out any scenes containing nudity.

An Abridged Version of HBO's True Blood, Season 1 (minus the bad scenes and most scenes that are not included in the novels by Charlaine Harris)
