Coulrophobia - Do you have it? I do!

Coulrophobia is the fear of clowns. All my life I've been afraid of them but my fear grew stronger in the 80's when I got the flu and my husband bought me Stephen Kings "It" to pass the time. Oh dear God in heaven, it was all I could do to finish the damn thing and to make matters worse, I was whining about wanting "bendy" straws for my ginger ale so he went to the store and found "Circus" straws with an ugly clown on the box...lol


This evil clown didn't uphold the rules of the old horror book days where children and cute fluffy animals were exempt from gruesome deaths. Little Georgie Denbrough in his yellow slicker, playing with a paper sail boat in the rain, bit the big time on page 2. Clowns have no mercy I tell ya. "We all float down here Georgie!!!" Acckkkk!!!!!! It has balloons and yellow eyes...I hate balloons too.


Another fun yet freaky clown movie is "Killer Klowns From OuterSpace"; a comedy, yeah right. Yes, it was humorous but those clowns still freaked me out. Excellent costumes and special effects for a low budget flick. Worth the rental fee. Don't make popcorn while you watch this one though...lol (those who have seen it will know what I mean).


Here's a clown movie I haven't seen. It's about a young boy with a fear of clowns and his stupid older brother and his friends decide to take him to the circus or "Clownhouse" to rid him of his fears and well, you get the idea, they soon crap themselves in fear as well...lol. Think I may rent this one if I can find a friend to watch it with....in the daylight!

Do you have a scary clown story to share???

He sure new how to Nip It In The Bud. We'll miss you Barney!

"I heard that Paris Hilton was really born a boy that Kathy Hilton named Perry, but her father, Rick Hilton, wanted a daughter. So he had Perry flown to Switzerland for a sex change operation when he was 3. Soon after Kathy started giving Paris hormone injections. Questioning the shots, Kathy convinced Paris that she has diabetes. Paris has lived her whole life thinking she has diabetes and now gives herself injections everyday. This is all true. I heard this from a bagger at Wild Oats whose mother worked as a pizza deliverer who knows this other lady that is a pet groomer who knows this lady that was a wet nurse for Lionel Richie's then son Nickolas whose name is now Nichole - who also has diabetes. If you know what I mean."

HNT... a little late


Not physically nekkid but emotionally. This is my Dad when he was 17. He had his own rockabilly band, The Count Downs, back in 1960-1963. I never met him. For whatever reason, he didn't want to be my Dad and took off before I was born. I was told very little about him over the years but recently received this picture. He died on New Years Day in 1993 so i'll never meet him but I'm very glad to have this pic.

Opinions please...

Ok, I recently redecorated my livingroom. New wood floors and new deep red velvet jeweled draperies so red is my main accent color. On the wall above the tv which is the main wall I have space for a 16 x 20 picture and I've tried several pics and none of them seem to thrill me and I'm getting tired of wasting money on new prints every week...lol. Soooo, I was browsing art.com and came across this one called Poppies. I like it. The girl seems sweet and innocent and evil and vicious all at the same time which intrigues me so I bought it and put it up for a few days to see how I like it.
Yesterday a friend stopped by with his 11 year old son and he just kept staring at it (of course). His Dad didn't seem to mind but Mom wasn't with them and I wonder how she would have felt about it.
My question is, would sitting in my livingroom, looking at this pic, make you uncomfortable? Would you hesitate to bring your kids over or is it simply art?

Dear Snow Gods,
ENOUGH ALREADY!!! I have to go to work at 5am tomorrow!

It's cold and snowing here so it's a weekend to stay in, watch movies like March of the Penguins and take a nap with my favorite widdle ducky.

Update: I watched the March of the Penguins and it was horrid. Nothing but death and dying penguins, I had to fast forward through most of it because it was so upsetting.

Three masked bandits made off with my cat's dinner last night.
Aren't they cute? They remind me of trick or treaters.
They scratch at the door then beg on their hind legs for cat food.
I must have sucker written across my face.

Way Back Wednesday!

My first job ever was at Famous Recipe Fried Chicken, a local chicken joint in my home town. I was 16 and had to wear this God awful squaredance type dress in red and yellow calico print. I looked like a granny quilt. To make matters worse, the yellow pinafore that went over the dress had a big, plastic chicken head sticking out of the center of my chest. So here I am, 16, with a chicken head thrusting out of my chest like in alien, working the cash register and all the boys from school come in and see me like that. But I didn't tell you the worst part. It was 1979 and was paid $2.10 an hour to wear that uniform. Why couldn't I have picked a job with a cool uniform like Hot Dog On A Stick?

HNT...not for me this week. I'm so down on myself right now that I needed to post something I've done lately that I am happy with and that's finding the right paint color for my bedroom. It's still a work in progress but the walls are done.

Why am I so down on myself? Because I'm a big, fat pig. Since my back injury over a year ago, I've put on so much weight that I'm miserable and can't seem to get motivated to get it off. All my co-workers started a diet today. They all weighed in like on The Biggest Loser and are competing till April 15th. Winner takes the cash which is $100 entry fee per person. It's up to $1500.00 but I couldn't bring myself to get on the scale in front of them and can't get going on my own. It would help me so much if any bloggers out there could share tips that helped them lose weight.

If you have any tips at all to share, please do so.....Thanks

It was 84 degrees at work today. So where is winter, Pux?

This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union Address fell on the same day. It is an ironic juxtaposition: One involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, and the other involves a groundhog.

Creepy Evil Dolls, a movie
& a blog.

Bubble
Moving on from high-profile Rat Pack remakes, director Steven Soderbergh tests out a new method of movie making that involves low-cost digital camerawork and employs no-name actors. Set in a crumbling Ohio town that revolves around the local doll factory, this offbeat film follows the antics of townsfolk turned detectives who try to unravel a murder mystery and end up discovering a bizarre love triangle. Bubble stars Dustin James Ashley and Debbie Doebereiner. Don't know if this one will make it to the theaters but you can rent it.

These dolls in the pic really creep me out. Here's a cool blog about creepy dolls...
