My husband and I broke down and bought a fancy new tv last night.

Don’t get me wrong! I’m very manly in my love of new toys, probably even more so than my husband, and I most likely pressured the tightwad to go this route because he knows how much I love new toys, but I’m just in shock that we spent more on this tv than we did when we bought a new computer two years ago. I’ll keep telling myself that this thing is beautiful and well worth it. Even my daughter, who wanted the old tv to come home from the doctor, got excited when we took it out of the box. Of course, the excitement was spurred by the opportunity to play in an empty box, but wait till she sees how good The Wiggles look now!

You can get your tickets from Catazon.

Someone dugg the tallest woman in Asia. In the comments, I found a link to tallwomen.org, which looks to be not only a comprehensive listing of famous tall women but also a great resource of retailers that cater to tall women. This is somewhat coincidental because just yesterday, I was going to post a rant on suffering through shoe shopping when you wear a 10-1/2. Yes, someday when Catazon is a superstar, you will see her name on tallwomen.org. I didn’t get that name for nothing, you know.

Another year of rodeo is over. Now time to focus on derby (and my team breathes a sigh of relief). 3 weeks till showtime. Am I ready? HA! Are you ready for me???

Houston Roller Derby was on the news Monday night. Once again, don’t look for Catazon. The video was taken at Sunday’s practice while I was working the rodeo.

Houston Roller Derby‘s very first bout is only a month away. Are you ready? Here’s a sneak preview.
