Kristin and some Rants of the Day


'Just take those old records off the shelf'...
and then move over for Tom Cruise Psychiatry

I downloaded the interview between Matt Lauer and Tom Cruise today, because I wanted to hear what happened in their discussion over anti-depressants. Holy crap! Tom Cruise is....I don't even know what he is anymore. I understand that he doesn't agree with drugs-that's fine. A lot of people don't believe in anti-depressants. But what got to me was that he was claiming to be an expert, and that psychiatry is a lot of 'bunk', and that he knew the research. He totally got in Matt's face and was rude, inappropriate, and to be honest, if Matt would have just punched him the face to get his attention, it would have rocked.

I guess I never realized how against psychiatry the whole Scientology thing was.

Matt asked a simple question about Brooke Shield's and her use of anti-depressants for post-pardom depression-it worked for her. How come it works for her, but Tom Cruise says she shouldn't have used them? The guy wouldn't answer the question. Yow.

Matt Lauer was awesome. He hung in there. He didn't get his questions answered, but he pushed back against a guy who is using Katie Holmes for a lot of personal gain, in my opinion.

It's been a long time since something like this got me so riled. To quote Roscoe P. Coletrain: "You dipstick."

Another retarded couple: Kevin and Britany

I read a review of Britany Spears and Kevin Federline's show "Chaotic". It said that those two made Nick and Jessica on "Newlyweds" look like Mensa candidates. That was hilarious!

Karl Rove
I won't go there. You know my feelings on using the terms 'liberal' and 'conservative'.

A new look

It was time for something new, so I changed up the template a bit. My HTML background is kind of coming back to me again.

Parents and Aunt are back from the Motherland, as my brother said. Sounded like a great trip and I can't wait to see all the pictures. They were a happy, but tired bunch when I picked them up on Sunday. Nice to have them home.

I received 2 emails this week that were surprising and full of good news. My former co-worker Jessi, and my former boss Alana, (from the TM experience) are both pregnant and due January 16th, and January 10th respectively. I'm due January 6th, so I guess we'll all just get to be pregnant together! So ironic. Alana has Dylan, who just turned a year old this month, otherwise this is the first for Jessi and Chris too.

Madison did much better at dog class last night. I was happy. She loves being around other dogs too.

Mike had his last graduate class last night, and is now just one thesis away from having his Masters Degree. WHOOHOO!

And, we might have to buy a new car because the Grand Prix is close to dying. More later on that.

Last, I bought the COOLEST Johnny Cash poster on Ebay yesterday for $3 bucks. I swooped in with 3 minutes to spare, and pretty much grabbed it. Can't wait to see it up close. I'm still thinking that if we have a boy, his middle name should be Cash. How cool would that be??? It can't be Elvis or I will never hear the end of it!
