MORNING UPDATE, May 18, 2012

Good Morning, peeps! Happy Friday! Happy Erev Shabat! The weather is beyond magnificent - and promises to be so till Monday! New footwear would sure be welcomed. 

It seems there was a rush of burglaries on Capitol Hill - well, you showed the way, ladies and gents. In other news - Al Gore got a new girlfriend; hopefully, she drives a Prius or a Volt, has not pets, does not eat meat, does not take baths, does not enter grocery store without reusable schlepper, lives next door to her work, and did not have any children who used disposable diapers (a short list that should actually be much longer, but, I guess, Al was not that choosy this time around). On the morning show they had a segment about "dating wines" - apparently, chardonnay and rose are best for the first few dates; around engagement you absolutely have to have overpriced French bubbly, and after marriage and children you can graduate to cheap red. Marc Summers was featuring Dylan's Candy Shoppe on the Unwrapped! 

Coffee this morning in my musical notes mug that I inherited from my sis.

MORNING UPDATE, June 29, 2012

Hello, peeps! Happy Friday! Happy Erev Shabat! Last week I was dared to post  half an hour before Shabat - this is the best I can do;) Triple H is here - who was it again who was complaining on Tuesday that it was cold? MTA keeps adding elevators to train stations - for the convenience of lazy asses who push in in front of elderly, disabled, and people with strollers; and there is only one segment of population doing it that's local; the rest of them are invading barbarians. 

Holmes and Cruise are splitting up - I guess nothing is worth the life with a crackpot Scientologist. Sharon Stone turned heads in some kinds of crazy top, and other celebrities turned heads in short shorts - I guess heat wave is affecting them as well. And there is a bottle of cabernet on the market that's worth 168 Gs - here is to good drinking. And Adele is pregnant - mazal tov! Shabat Shalom, peeps!

MORNING UPDATE - May 13, 2014

Good Morning, peeps! Happy Tuesday! This is the first report that I am producing on my new computer - thank you, Baby Bro! You are simply the best brother in the whole wide world!
The weather is almost appropriate for the middle of May - enjoying every single drop of it.
George is the almost undisputed king of the cat house and the air conditioner box. Sniff deserves a huge round of applause - he managed to get out from under the sink cabinet all on his own yesterday! And today he played a mashgiah to our super.
Yesterday was assigned to organizing the chess section - which exercise proved that the chess aficionados are just as much the swine as the rest of our customers.
Currently trending at #1 is Bruce Jenner - because he sent flowers for his ex for the Mother's Day! Aww, how delightful! Especially considering how wonderful the kiddies turned out...
In other news from the upper echelons of our society - Solange Knowles beat up her dear brother in law in an elevator, after which the loving sisters had a split, after which Solange went over her Instagram and purged the images of Beyonce from it.
In related story - the list of the 5 hotels that "won't leak your elevator footage" .
In unrelated news - a lone wolf in Oregon, who seems to have left his pack in 2011, may have finally found himself a mate, in search of whom he traveled thousands of miles. Mazal Tov, oh-no-longer-lonely wolf from Oregon!
No news for Bieber today.
Kate has officially cut her hair!
And, finally, in the last year, Americans topped the French as the wine consumers - I think I might have contributed a bit to that one.
Coffee this morning in my Life is Delicious mug.

MORNING UPDATE - MAY 8

Good Morning, peeps! Happy Wednesday! It's raining today. George came to snuggle in last night, and Sniff - this morning. Now they are both slumbering in my room: Georgie on my bed, and Sniffles in the cat house. Ina was making scones - yay! Yesterday, or rather very early this morning, I finally finished a bottle of chardonnay that was purchased before the Purim of 2012 - am an embarrassment to my Russian heritage and proud of it! Also, still did not consume my Godiva freebies. Today is Yom Yerushalaim - anti-Semites of all stripes (including our own) are invited to gnash their teeth and be reminded once again that undivided Jerusalem belongs to us. And now, to important news. Universal Orlando is expanding their Harry Potter world - another example of HP working its wizardry in the muggle world. Guess what is trending at #1 right now? Kardashian bikini! It looks like Kim "bared her baby bump" in a "tiny bikini" - earth shattering news this is, for sure. Leonard Nimoy is trending at #5 because he and his "Spock successor" were featured in an Audi commercial - that one was really funny. Megyn Kelly is trending at #8 because Fox just renewed her contract - let the mud-slinging from the benevolent left begin. Americans don't get enough magnesium in their diet; good news - nuts and dark chocolate are full of it! Dennis Rodman tweeted a diplomatic plea to the leader of North Korea starting with "do me a solid" - paging psychiatric hotline. Urban Outfitters is under fire again - this time for selling shot glasses that look like prescription drug bottles. Critics claim it "glamorizes" the drug abuse - oh, come on, people! As long as it doesn't glamorize gun ownership, I think everyone should be happy. And a dude in Australia requested a custom level of Angry Birds in order to propose with it - interesting, that. Definitely beats "will you wash my tzizis" proposal. Selena Gomez "penned" a new song titled "Love Will Remember" about her romance with Biebs - aw....Who needs to read Romeo and Juliette, or The Sanatorium, or Pride and Prejudice, when we have such gorgeous and profound love ballads. And, finally, Kate is credited, once again, with bringing tiny purses and clutches into the spotlight - I guess our tasted divulge here. Coffee this morning in my smiley faces mug.
