Here's a game of tag I haven't seen before...it's pretty funny! Do you know the #1 song the day you were born? Go to http://www.joshhosler.biz/ and look up the number one song for your birth date. Add your first name at the bottom of the list and put the name of the song beside it! Then email it to your friends and be sure and send me the results of 'your' song!
This is mine: 1962 ... "Duke of Earl" by Gene Chandler
Duke, Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl
Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl
Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl
Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl
Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl
Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl
Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl
Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl
As I walk through this world
Nothing can stop the Duke of Earl
And-a you, you are my girl
And no one can hurt you, oh no
Yes-a, I, oh I'm gonna love you, oh oh
Come on let me hold you darlin'
'Cause I'm the Duke of Earl
So hey yea yea yeah
And when I hold you
You'll be my Duchess, Duchess of Earl
We'll walk through my dukedom
And a paradise we will share
Yes-a, I, oh I'm gonna love you, oh oh
Nothing can stop me now
'Cause I'm the Duke of Earl
So hey yeah yeah yeah
Well, I, oh I'm gonna love you, oh oh
Nothing can stop me now
'Cause I'm the Duke of Earl
So hey yeah yeah yeah

On Sunday after work we hung around and waited for the Super Bowl to start. We only wanted to watch the commercials and the half time show. I enjoy a good Super Bowl party and have attended a couple of great ones at my sister-in-laws but this year with work and the fact that the Pats weren’t in it, Mary and I decided to skip it. My sister decided that we all needed to see the commercials in 3d so she picked up some glasses. I think she thought that she could see better with more than one…..but four? Seriously – how much do you think your forehead could see? She shared with us later – not that it made any difference – they weren’t great. Neither was the halftime show – just what I always wanted to see – the Boss’ crotch sliding into the camera….nice… So for me a bust of a Super Bowl – how was yours?

Saturday started off really early for me - I needed to take Kelsie to pick up concert tickets to Fall Out Boy because I am the coolest mom. I don't mind if she goes to concerts as long as someone is going with her, they are semi local (although I did let her go to a concert in Boston that I picked her up from) and for the most part that she pays for herself. This one fit that bill so I said yes. Plus the concerts that she wants to go to are never more than 40.00.
Then Mary and I need to run some errands - and along the way we stopped at a small family run restaurant in Salem, NH named Priscella's where I had the banana split waffle and Mary had steak tips. Very good food and extremely fresh. We ended the day at the Christmas Tree shop where Mary decided that she would do a little modeling for me.
She really wants to be the Easter Bunny but only to get the candy. She can't fool me. That is how we ended the day. Silly Rabbit
