There are three new additions to the ‘Xanganites with great taste list’, other wise known as my subscribers. (I’m in a rare fit of cockiness, I’ll be over it soon. Don’t get all wound up.) … *drum roll*
BlueBerries … Xanga’s (from what I’ve seen) youngest and spunkiest member. Welcome aboard! 🙂Mitch … A fellow car seranader … I like her already! She likes Patty Loveless (more points in my book) … this will a blog to watch! 😉
Inspiriation … I honestly thought she had subscribed ages ago. Oh, well … she is my pen-pal buddy and a really, truly sweet person. Her site is full of real-life observations, bits of inspiration and great web site ideas. Her revolving profile image is always beautiful … 🙂
Quote of the Day
“This place certainly reeks of hospitality and good cheer, or maybe it’s this cheese.”
Jean Harlow (1911 – 1937) US actress
Sarcastically referring to Gable’s manners in “Red Dust,” 1932.
We all know that water is important but I’ve never seen it written down like this before.
75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half world population). In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger. Even mild dehydration will slow down one’s metabolism as much as 3%.
One glass of water shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a U-Washington study.
Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.
Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.
Are you drinking the amount of water you should every day?
My tummy is on strike …
I hate Ramen Noodles. Who cares if they are 6 for $1? I am SICK of eating them. I’m tired of being broke and perpetually hungry. Arrrruuggghhh!

(Like you really needed MORE …)
When I was younger and playing with Barbie and Ken, if I made them kiss or made them … ‘get busy’ … I would sneeze. This stayed with me later in life and whenever I thought I was going to ‘get busy’ I would sneeze. It still happens once in a while if things are really unexpected. Freudians … explain this!!!
Quote of the Day
I made the decision to quit show business. Give up the skintight dresses and manicured smiles. The false concern over sentimental lyrics. I would never again work to make people smile inanely and would take on the responsibility of making them think. – Maya Angelou

The latest on the swirlers list is litboiler, who comes to us from Indiana. He is an attractive guy, (I’m allowed to say that) who includes bellybutton lint weaving in his list of official hobbies. *raises eyebrows* His drunken blogs make for some interesting reading, too. 😉
Signs This Is G:-Ping To Be A Bad Day
You wake up ten minutes after your first class starts …
You forget to eat breakfast after you have taken the time to make it …
You look at the gas gauge and realize that you might make it to school and back on that amount …
You realize that you left your drink money at home and you’re thirsty as hell …
