Concrete is a hot topic in my parent’s house this morning. My dad stopped by the new house to take a look at the progression of construction and noticed that the builder poured concrete for a full basement instead of a half basement and hasn’t yet noticed the mistake, which means they are getting half a basement for free!

This may be the beginning of a great love of concrete in my family, and who knows, maybe some concrete benches will end up on the front porch! Doty & Sons has been carrying concrete planters, benches, and tables since 1948 so if my parents are going to buy concrete benches from anyone, it has to be them.

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden are getting married October 13th? What the shit.

I guess it’s important to make sure the baby isn’t illegitimate.

Pam Anderson and Rick Solomon are engaged? What the shit.

I always thought Pam Anderson was a little nutty, but I always considered her sane. She seemed to take good care of her kids, lead a fairly normal home life, and she managed to keep her goods under wraps at most times, which is no easy feat, but Rick Solomon is such a scuzz-bag, and he’s not even good looking.

I’m not a professional, but I take a lot of pictures. My camera is always in my purse and I’m constantly uploading pictures from my camera to my computer and then posting them on my blogs. I’m also always looking for more creative ways to display my pictures than just putting them in a frame and displaying them on the counter and Photo Blankets are definitely more creative. Not only can you turn your pictures into blankets, but you can make photo pillow and pillowcases, and shower curtains just by uploading your photos.

Happy Self Portrait Sunday! I had my Blackberry on the bathroom counter while I was taking a shower, and I don’t think that was a real good idea for the camera.
