Dances with Wolves?!!!

Ive never liked Kevin Costner as an actor and now i can also dislike him as a person. For any of you who havent heard yet, Kevin evidently thought the professional massage he received at a spa over in England recently should end with a bang. And since his massage therapist wasnt about to go there he did the job himself while he was still on the table.

This now puts him at the top of my "celebrities who are in need of a reality check" list.

Thanks Mr. Costner for treating a member of the massage therapy profession like a prostitute. Do you live in a cave??!! Dont you realize MT's are educated, trained, and licensed just like other professions. We have worked long and hard to avoid THAT SORT OF IMAGE for massage.......if you want a rub that is all inclusive go see your corner hooker. If you want massage therapy then find a massage therapist.


THE RANT IS OVER.

My big sister...

never ceases to surprise me. First of all a big WAY TO GO on her recent belly dance performance. I would have loved to have been there. I know she is not one to get up in front of others and "perform" so kudos to her. Im so proud and (secretly) envoius that she has stuck with belly dance since her girls were born. What a great way to exercise AND express yourself.

So i expect the politico stuff from her and the occassional link to bad music and silly fugly websites but todays link just made me shreik with laughter.

Now i hate to tell her but i had seen this site a LONG time ago. (did you catch the pun??) She forgets that i was once quite the heavy metal grrrl.



OH- belated congrats to Julie and Ben on their expecting a baby. Yaay! I guess the German air was good for you both.


And a big old school hello to my friend Julia. Dating waaaaaay back to the 6th grade....and we just hooked back up after almost 20 years. It is so cool catching up and i hope we continue the back and forth. Its brought back so many memories. I remember her mom used to let us write inside her closet on the walls. We thought that was cool. I also remember for a time her house was located within walking distance of a neighborhood pool. Another cool thing. I also remember how cool it was to have girlfriends as sarcastic, cynical, and intelligent as i thought i was. Julia as i recall was the first person i ever knew that had a cabbage patch doll. And hers came directly from the "hospital"...a true original.

Why do we remember the weirdest little things??
