It's been a while....

Thanks for being my first...

What an odd, and funny, statement to hear from a T-Mobile level 3 customer care representative. Lol. I called because Miss Zalyssa's new phone, an LG Xenon, would not send or receive picture messages. Since it's an out-of-network phone, they need to program it for T-Mobile. Aside from one representative who asked if I really needed to be able to use my phone at my home, I have had nothing but positive experiences with T-Mobile customer service. She could not find the phone in her system because it is relatively new. We chatted about the phone for quite a while, it's a pretty cool phone, a touchscreen slider. then she was able to get it programmed and MissZalyssa is now able to take pictures and e-mail them to herself so she can post them on myspace. The level 3 rep ended the call with "thank you for being my first" because this was the first Xenon she had set up. It was funny.

MissZalyssa had to leave her boyfriend for the weekend because she is going up to a cabin with her dad and his family. And Zemily is going with. It was sad, and funny, to see Zalyssa and Zryan say goodbye. I'll miss you *kiss-kiss*, I'll miss you more. lol He's a good kid, very polite and nice. But I'm not sure if I'm ready for the Zalyssa-monster to have a real boyfriend. I'm getting old. I'm thankful for the hilarious fact that she won't even let him near her bedroom because it's such a mess. And she has no desire to clean it, so he may never see the inside of it. That's a good thing! I never thought I'd be glad she had a messy room.

I'm slightly miffed that the T-Wolves did not draft Stephen Curry. Actually, slightly miffed is an understatement. I'm downright cranky and p*ssed. He can score. And he's hot. Super hot. At least they were able to draft 182 guards. Whether the motivation behind drafting every single available guard was to trade or not, passing on Curry is, in my opinion, a huge mistake. Even if my opinion is based mostly on his level of hotness. And Rubio has said he doesn't even want to play in MN. What if we wasted a draft pick on a player we can never sign? On paper, their draft choices aren't terrible. But in real life, we need to rebuild. and we need a franchise player, a face for the team. Curry would have been perfect. At least I'll save money because if Curry was on the team, I'd have gone to a few games.

I'm sad about Michael Jackson passing away. He is THE greatest entertainer ever. He was accused of many horrible things. A jury acquitted him. It's all now between him and God. I am not going to debate whether or not he was guilty, but I am going to state that if he was not guilty, that only added to the torment that he was already going through based on his childhood and teenage years. His music has had a great impact on so many people. He was truly the King of Pop. And his poor children.....I am praying for them, and also that Michael has found the peace in death that he never experienced while alive. So, I end this with some lyrics to my favorite MJ song - "Heal the world, make it a better place, for you and for me and the entire human race. There are people dying, if you care enough for living, make a better place for you and for me".
