Random Tuesday Thoughts

Couponing, Columbus Day, Justin Timberlake, & To-Dos with RTT

Have you ever had a day where you simply didn’t want to post? That’s me today. I don’t wanna ramble. I don’t wanna rant. I don’t wanna do anything! But, I don’t wanna be a slacker. I don’t wanna be a whiner. I don’t wanna be a loser!  So….grab a cup of coffee, it’s Tuesday morning and you know what that means.

Are you ready to RAAAMBLE? 
 
Let me see a show of hands of those who like couponing? Yeah, I like clipping coupons, too. Okay, I don’t clip coupons the old fashion way. I use coupons.com or similar websites to find special deals of items I know I will use.  Clipping coupons for FREE is the way to go. Why buy a newspaper when you don’t even know what you’re getting?

A coupon that really grabbed my attention was for $3 off Abreva. Whoo-hoo, cool savings! The expiration date is for early next month. We didn’t have a need for it at the moment, so I figured no sense in buying it just yet.  Guess what? This morning I woke up with a fever blister coming on. I believe it’s going to be a nasty large one, too. Yeah, serves me right for not getting the Abreva when I had the chance to do so over the weekend. Why didn’t I just see finding the coupon as a warning sign?

Yesterday was Columbus Day. Thanks Chris for discovering America! What a wonderful country to be living in, right? Thankfully, my DH had the day off. That accounts for my absence in Blogsville. What you didn’t notice? roll eyes Okay, you’re forgiven. cheesy grin For those historian intellects out there, you can learn more about Columbus Day by visiting, history.com

Tell me, do you think Justin Timberlake is ‘sexy’? I can’t fathom him as such. To me, he looks like a goof-ball.  He was the hot stuff with N’Sync in the 90s,  then he broke away making it big for himself.  All the teeny boppers went wild over him. Okay, I guess I can kindda see that. Young girls are often time influenced by their peers and what’s in, right? However, what I don’t get is he has had some gorgeous looking girlfriends…Britney Spears, Cameron Diaz,  & Jessica Biel. By Hollywood’s standards these women would be considered ‘sexy’, too. How did he manage this? Another thing my brain can’t wrap around is the idea he’s trying to move into the moving industry. I’m not a Sci-Fi movie goer, but In Time could be interesting to see, if Justin Timberlake wasn’t starring in it. For some reason, the thought of Timberlake in a movie squashed it for met. How do you feel about Justin?

Today, I have a few specific chores set in my mind to accomplish or at least get a start, as it will take more than one day to see these project to completion. Here’s what I have lined up:

  • Research automatic coffee makers
  • Browse Lone Star Candle Supply to compile future order
  • Begin scanning baby book journal pages into computer
  • Fold and cut card stock for Christmas cards

What brand of automatic coffee maker do you have and do you like it? If not, what are some features I should look for?  

What’s on your To-Do list for today?

Thanks Stacy for keeping the randomness alive while Keely @ UnMom is on a blogging break! Go ahead, slip into the ranting mood with the rest of us. I know, you’ll feel right at home. You won’t run into any odd ball looks here because anything goes. C’mon on, join the weekly fun with this cool meme and tell Stacy, “Cathy sent ya!”

What’s on your mind today?

    I just can’t take Justin seriously as an actor. Fine he can stay in music, I’ll avoid his songs but he’s starting to pop up in big movies, it’s annoying!

    We have a coffee maker that I use for making iced tea- NOT coffee. It fits under the cabinet and I really like it. I can’t see the name from here and I’m too lazy to get up. But I think it’s a Black and Decker. LOL

    Justin? I still think of him as a cute little kid.

    I feel wrong admitting it, but I kind of have a thing for Justin. I think it’s because he seems to have personality as well.

    Your roses bloom in December? That sounds nice. Mine are covered in much snow in December.

    @Katie…am researching coffee makers and once I’ve determined the one I wanna try then I’ll be sure to write a post.

    @Mom in High Heels…there was a Pepsi commerical with Justin in it a few years ago which was hilarious, which totally surprised me. So, maybe he is an okay actor. It’s just so difficult for me to take him seriously for some reason. I guess it’s just me being weird, huh? =D

  • Mom in High Heels

    I’ve seen a few movies Justin was in, and quite liked him. He’s not a bad actor at all. He is kind of goofy looking, but in a boy next door kind of way.
    When Indy was about 3 the song “Sexy Back” came out and it was his absolute favorite song. Totally inappropriate for a 3 year old, but any time it came on the radio he would poke his lips out and start moving his head back and forth in time to the music. Silly boy.

    I don’t really follow Justin much..but I did see that preview on TV. Probably won’t run out to see it. I need a new coffee maker as well. I’d love to hear what you end up choosing.
