Friday!!!

Woohoo, it's Friday!  This is my 3rd week participating in Friday Follow.

Friday Follow

I think I might just blog about all of my random thoughts...and hopefully everyone will find something they can "connect" to and/or comment on.

I bought 5 Quick Picks for the Mega Millions lotto in California that takes place Friday night.  It's up to 144 million!  If I win, I want to buy a house in Idaho...although I should probably buy one where it's nice during the winter also!

I went on a drive around my neighborhood with my friend tonight.  I've only lived in this neighborhood since August, and I never fully realized that every street dead ends or is a cul-de-sac.  There is also this one dead-end...that leads to a normally gated area...but the gate was open tonight.  We drove through...and it looked so creepy!  Every house looked almost the same...and they all seemed to be duplexes.  The cars must be required to be in the garages...because there was not one car in a driveway or on any street.  And...almost everyone's lights were out at 10:30 at night!!  Creepy!!!

I beat my high score on Bejeweled on facebook today.  I scored 384,750 points.  This is amazing...I had never beat 300,000 before.  If we're not facebook friends, you should click here and be my friend.

I have a question about twitter that no one seems to be answering for me.  I have heard of people entering giveaways on twitter...the way most people enter giveaways on blogs or corporate sites.  Does anyone know about these twitter giveaways and how to find them?

I think my last thought is about dinner Saturday.  I am having a friend over and have NO IDEA what to make.  He suggested tonight that I could make his favorite kind of macaroni and cheese (from a box)...so I am now wondering if I should at least try to make it from scratch and see if he likes it!

I almost forgot...I started a new thing at the gym today.  But it was hard and I sucked at it.  Our "trainer" (who is really the membership/sales manager) suggested to us that we should do arms one day and legs one day, doing cardio whenever.  We had been doing all of the machines one day and cardio the other day.  So I did my arms today.  I only did like 3 sets on each of 6 machines before I was exhausted!  I missed a whole bunch of arm exercises...but I did a few new ones too!

Wow, I wonder if I should blog my random thoughts like this more often.  I never do!!!!!

to find the twitter giveaway you have to stop by a blog that has them on them. I do not tweet or no much but I see on some blogs when they do giveaways they have a place for you to tweet out the info. I hope this helps.

I have a new fun thing going on next week on Friday if you want to join in.

1. Good luck with lotto. I hope by the time you read this, you'll be 144 million dollars richer. Why Idaho?
2.We like to call those kinds of neighborhoods, "Poltergeist" neighborhoods. Did you ever see the movie? Creepy!
3. Yay on Bejeweled! I've never played and I don't want to start!
4. I'm on Twitter and have no idea how to do anything, so sorry I can't help!
5. make the homemade mac-n-cheese, you'll win this "friend" over.
6. I'm on a gym binge right now, let me know how this new thing works for ya!

Hi Becca, Did you win?? You could surprise your friend with homemade macaroni if you want. He might come to find he likes that better. As for twitter and the companies and entering I just see other people tweet them and it's normally a follow the company and retweet I think. Hope that helps. I haven't played bejeweled on facebook in a while. I love that game. Hope you have a great weekend. My google reader must need to burp as I don't see a lot of peoples feeds I follow yet. One day I will get in there with an enormous amount and go what the heck... Then I will know it caught up.
