AWESOMELY BAD

You know what I am talking about. Movies so bad they are good.

The movie that you might be embarrassed to admit that you love,

the one you have to stop and watch

when you are flipping channels and you catch it on TBS.

For me, it has to be ROADHOUSE.

Dalton lives like a loner,

fights like a professional,

and loves like there is no tomorrow

Patrick Swayze as the peace loving bouncer, the beautiful Sam Elliot,

and the Jeff Healey (may he RIP) band singing Angel Eyes.

What is your guilty pleasure, awesomely bad movie? Is it Showgirls? Joe Dirt?

Please share and tell us what you love about it.

Olympic wardrobe malfunction

Last night I watched beach volleyball.

Misty May(good stripper name)-Treanor and Kerri Walsh

won the gold for the second time.

As I watched them play in their white nike bikinis in the rain, I wondered if perhaps their game was not sponsored by Playboy?

Whatever happened to a pair of shorts and a t-shirt????

Better than Rancherito????

Let me preface this story with this: In case you are new to my blog, you may not know that I love EL Rancherito. I could eat there everyday. My sister Michelle may love it even more than me.

Saturday evening after we went to see Jill and her new baby we needed food. In a town with an El Rancherito, there is really not any other dining choice. We always head there. Michelle suggested we try another El Rancherito type place in Charleston. Not owned by the EL Rancho people, but it was supposed to be good. Michelle's friend and former co-worker MARGARITA had highly recommended it and with an authentic Mexican name like that, you can't go wrong!

Let me introduce....

LOS POTRILLOS

Do you get cheese dip at EL Rancherito?

I don't love it. I don't hate it.

Michelle and Gabe always get it and Jack is VERY fond of it.

Well, at LP they have a another form of cheese dip.

They add spinach to it!

HOLA spinach cheese dip.

I think I love you.

I only took a pic of my food.

I got a chicken burrito. I am not sure if it was as big as my head, I have a

larger head than the normal sized person.

It sure was good.

After all that spinach cheese dip I barely put a dent in it.

Made for great leftovers the next day!

Don't worry, I am not breaking up with Rancherito.

It will always be my first love.

My Olympic rant

Have you been watching the Olympics? Unlike the majority of the population of the USA, I really have not gotten sucked into the Olympics. Cliff has made me watch some of Michael Phelp's races and I have thoroughly enjoyed watching the Today Show in China each morning.


Here is what I am thinking about the great Michael Phelps who beat the longtime medal record held by Mark Spitz. Look at the pictures of Spitz. Look at that stache. Can you imagine the tenths of seconds that would have been shaved off of Spitzs time if he would have removed the moustache. Not Spitz, he was doing it for the USA, but also for the ladies. Burt Reynolds style. So that my friends is why even though Michael Phelps may swim faster and have more medals, Mark Spitz will always be in my book an American hero.





On to women's gymnastics.

Last night it did suck me in. I watched Nastia (and really, the entire time I was watching I was thinking "what is up with her name" she had to have been called Nastyia in school) get the Gold medal stolen away from her by that damn little Chinese girl.

Those Chinese girls were 16??? My ass! If that is true, I weigh 120lbs.

What are they doing to those girls in China to make them stop growing.

Have they somehow found a way to use feet binding for the entire body?

You could tell Nastia was pissed. I don't blame her. A tie??

God Bless America, Phelps, Nasty Nastia, and Mark Spitz and his glorious moustache.

USA USA USA USA USA USA USA

And Bingo was his Name-O

Friday night the Diel Girls headed to the NCHS cafeteria from some Longaberger Basket Bingo sponsored by Eagle Pride. I had no idea how fast paced and cut-throat the world of basket bingo was.

MMMM....bingo dobbers

Almost a winner....

Michelle did win a door prize of a gift certificate from
Hartrich's Meats.

It was perfect for Michelle.

She loves meat.

One away on the "T" game.

Baby Lucy Bierman has arrived!

Jill and Ben Bierman welcomed the newest addition to their family very early Saturday morning. LUCY ANNAMAE BIERMAN has arrived!!!

Saturday afternoon Michelle, Gabe, Dexter, along with myself and Jack

went to Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Center to visit with Jill and Baby Lucy.

When you ride with Michelle you park in style!!

Here she is!!
Miss Lucy

Now I know she is part Diel Girl and one would expect her to

already be talking a mile a minute, but she really is just yawning in this picture!

Welcome to the world little girl.

You could not have hand picked a better family to belong to.

6 months pregnant today!!

6 months today!! 24 weeks.

Yesterday I went to see Jill's new baby girl, Lucy (hope to have pics posted tonight). It made me that much more excited for my baby to get here.

I also purchased a few items of clothing for Baby Chuck Chuck. Since I saved pretty much everything of Jack's and have access to all of Dexter's clothes, Chuck won't need that much, but a few new things hanging in his closet make me feel good.

Obama dances! He's never gonna give us up.
