Weekend ramblings....

Can anyone guess what was for dinner last night? Anyone? Yes, I was a lazy bum and ordered Chinese. Boy was it good! I got my usual....General chicken. I tell ya, my lips were burning after eating that! John got Kung Po shrimp. I've never had that before but it looked and smelled delicious. Betsy got her usual shrimp fried rice and wee one didn't get anything, as she was at a sleep over. I'm sitting here writing this....and thinking about the leftovers in the fridge....no! Must resist....

Hey, you know what? This is weird. I was just thinking about how I like roosters and have the collection, etc....and whilst perusing my graphic choices noticed the "year of the ____" pictures. Guess what....I was born in the year of the ROOSTER! (my menu had another name for the rooster, which should make Kara say, "Well that explains a lot!" lololol) Anyway....according to the Chinese calendar, different years of birth under the Rooster mean different things. Here are some characteristics of people born in the year of the Rooster, 1969:

THE EARTH ROOSTER 1909 AND 1969

This Rooster is overtly organized. He is a little reserved and quite careful in his decision-making. These Roosters are hard workers as well, and can handle several tasks at once. They are detail-oriented who are quite efficient and self-sufficient. They take on responsibility without a cause and are motivated only in wanting to be successful.

Okay, who thinks this sounds like me? Boy, those Chinese are spot on, aren't they? Hmmmm, I wonder if Bree is a Rooster?

Okay, I just posted this entry but had to go back and add this as I was reading more about myself....this is just getting too spooky!

AT HOME WITH THE ROOSTER

As proud as they are of themselves,you can only imagine how they are about their homes. Roosters put a lot of effort into their homes as they reflect the Roosters assets and taste. They are very neat and clean and have everything in its own specific place. They make a chore out of cleaning out drawers and closets with a knack for rearranging them better and better each time they attempt it. This habit is enough to drive anyone berserk, but a Rooster’s family understands his need for a dramatic appearance.

I went to China town in LA yesterday with my daughter's Chinese class and, of course, had Chinese food for lunch.  Very fun trip and it was a beautiful day also.
