I'm listening to one of my new CD's- this one is Just Because I'm a Woman- Songs of Dolly Parton a collection of her songs sung by other artists. It is pretty good so far. I also got the new Totally Hits 2003 and the new Elvis Greatest Hits CD 2nd to None. My sister still has my copy of the first one- so I may have to eventually buy that again. This one has a lot of my favorites- like 'Little Sister'. So I have been going a little crazy with buying CDs lately. I am definitely buying the new NOW cd though- I just saw the advertisment on TV- it should be in stores in I'll say three weeks maximum. I admit it freely, I love those CDs- I bought similiar ones before they were cool- mind you the songs were from the 80s and early nineties- but they were the hits performed by the actual artists. I always hate finding ones that feature great songs and at such a reasonable price and then you see that crappy line on the bottom of the CD 'Performed by the Afternoon Delights' or some other shitty cheesy name. I would rather pay the extra five dollars for a decent version- thanks, but no thanks. One day my friend Vickie was raving about her new CD and that she now has 'I Will Survive'. She puts it on in front of me- and I had to inform her that the lady was no Gloria Gaynor- probably more like a Susan Johnson with a part-time job. Well anyway, I feel very strongly about that topic.... I also bought the DVD of 'The Sure Thing'- it is probably the best John Cusack film ever. I may watch it sometime soon.

I'm going to watch 'Dreamcatcher' tonight- I just want to get in the right mindset. I have spent the last week watching Season Two of Sex and the City. I have only seen two episodes of the show at the most before I rented the season last week. I like it a lot. While I hope that women aren't having that much promiscious sex these days- I love the topics that are discussed. My friends and I are very open about sex, and it makes me remember the good times when seeing the four women talking. I'm going to rent Season Three tomorrow night- and stretch it out over the next week.

I had a good day today- I hung out with my niece- doing trivial shit- that all added up to a great day. I gave her parents some alone time with the baby, who is home now. I went over and held the new baby for about thirty minutes- I still feel weird about her- because I have yet to hold her while she is fully awake- so not hearing her cries and seeing her feed makes me feel like I am holding a lifelike doll. I am excited about her growing in the next three months. Christmas should be a fun time. I can't wait for when I have my own baby- but I'm in no rush- at least until age 34- then I will be trying to get any male in a 100 mile radius to impregnate me. That leaves me with less than 9 years to find someone. I guess I should get all decked out and head to the bar right now- find me a real winner....
