10:35 am - Weird!!!
My allergist, who is by far my favorite doctor, is the brother of the new Supreme Court nominee (Sonia Sotomayor)! So weird!!

05:05 pm - For Ryan and Andy
Goulash recipe!

I should say upfront that even though this is what my mother makes, she always likes other people's goulash much better.

~
Cook 1 pound elbow macaroni

At same time, brown 1 & 1/2 pounds ground beef with diced green peppers and onions (as many as you'd like of both). Drain beef after browned. Peppers and onions will bake more in the oven.

Add to the beef: salt and pepper, 2 8oz cans of tomato soup, 3 8oz cans of tomato sauce, and a dash of worcestershire or tabasco. Mix with macaroni and place in a 4-5 quart casserole. Cook uncovered for 30-45 minutes at 350 degrees.

So it's not very fancy, but I've always loved it! :)

10:33 am - Wedding photos!
I just uploaded some photos from Jackie and Chad's wedding! They're all on Facebook, so Lea, here's the link to them: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=56880&l=903d7&id=502998115

If anyone is wondering why there are barely any photos from the actual wedding day and none of Jackie and Chad from that day, it's because we were both busy during the ceremony and then didn't take many pictures afterwards!

11:44 am - Finally
I've been obsessing over my Top 100 Favorite Songs list for months now... I needed to just put the new list up and be done with it, so I'm here to say that it's finally updated on my webpage! I'm annoyed, though, about how my new table format looks. As with most new things I try to do, it looks fine in my old school webpage program but not quite right in Explorer. I'm not going to stress too much about it right now, though, because the table just hangs off a little on the right... though I guess that may be a bigger problem for people with lower resolutions than mine.

Anyway, check it out if you're interested! I also put up a new page of "fun facts" related to the music lists. :-P

03:03 pm - LJ Strike
Has everyone heard about the supposed LJ Strike that people are planning for this Friday? I don't know a lot about the whole thing yet and therefore am not sure how I feel about it all, but I thought I should spread the word since I hadn't seen anyone on my own friends list mention it yet.

This is where I first heard about it:

09:48 am - Help!!
All of my text here is suddenly justified to the right!! Am I the only one with this problem?! Should I just wait longer to see if it goes back to normal or is there something I should try doing???

UPDATE!
Phew, I guess I'm not the only one. I found this at http://www.livejournal.com/support/

Journals using the Punquin Elegant and Tabular Indent S2 layouts have their text aligned to the right when viewed using Opera or Internet Explorer. This has been reported to developers for investigation. In the meantime, you can switch to another layout, or add this CSS to your Custom CSS:

/* for Punquin Elegant */
table.standard td {text-align: left;}

/* for Tabular Indent */
body, td, p {text-align: left;}

For anyone interested, here's a clip of David on Star Search... not my favorite performance ever, but the only one I could find!



I'm glad he stopped doing that growl thing so often!!!

03:28 pm - Hope the links work
Since a couple of you guys asked, here's a link to a picture of the bridesmaid dress Colleen picked for her wedding:

She is doing it in that latte color. The sash will be pale pink. This is a cartoony picture that's closer to what she's doing:

07:32 am - Argh!!!
I'm having this problem lately where I can only go back 40 entries in my friends page - is this happening to anyone else? It was a huge problem yesterday when I finally fully caught up and had to go to each person's individual journal to see if I'd missed anything between December 18th and 20th (just for the record, I had of course heavily skimmed everything since that date, just not read everything completely). It's really annoying!!

09:22 am - laneymunoz.com
Last Christmas CJ's gift to me was a real webpage of my very own, and I waited to tell everyone about it until I actually moved all my pages there... well, that finally officially happened last night! :-P For now, the major changes since the last update are older pictures of me, CJ, my brother, and my family, as well as many layout differences (some new backgrounds and colors). There are still a few kinks that I need to work out later, but I think it's good for now. The biggest problem with the webpage is that I have hardly any photos up from 2005-now, so my next step will be to finally scan wedding photos and put those up. Then I'll do photos since then. And after all that, I'll work on the friend texts which now only say "journal excerpts coming soon". Heehee. ;-)

This probably goes without saying but the link is: http://www.laneymunoz.com

Merry Christmas!!!

04:12 pm - Yikes
This won't really mean anything to anyone, but I just read that my favorite character on Prison Break, Sarah, won't be back. The show was already becoming iffy for me, so this is not good at all. Now I'm not really looking forward to the show coming back. :-\

04:42 pm - Candles are fun
I just ordered all of the following Partylite stuff after having a party on Friday night, and the total is only about $45 for everything here. Totally fun!! :-D

I'm trying out a lot of scents I've never had before )

I want it all to be here now! :-P

05:08 pm - Andy's Friday Five + Two!
1. What's your favorite sauce to put on pasta? Plain ol' marinara! As far as what I like to eat at home, I love Newman's Own Marinara, as well as Classico's Garden Vegetable Primavera (a marinara sauce with veggies mixed in)... although I haven't been able to find the Classico sauce anywhere around here lately. :-(

2. What's your favorite ingredient to put in a sammich? Cold chicken

3. What's your favorite fried food? Hmm... do cheesesticks count? Probably that.

4. What's your favorite midnight snack? Cookies or ice cream

5. What's your favorite type of bread? I really only eat white and Italian, so white bread

+

Won) What two foods have you mixed or dipped or in some other way combined that might seem weird to others? I can't think of anything and neither can CJ! So I'll just have to go with pickles on cold chicken sandwiches.

Too) What's one of your family favorite foods to make for gatherings or holidays? To make?? I don't make food! :-D One of my favorites to EAT is pasta salad... ooh, or strawberry jello salad.

10:02 am - Friday Five + Two
I am WAY behind on reading entries from you guys, but I want to do this before it gets even later in the week!

[info]uglyallday's Friday Five + Two

1. Name one 50s song you like.
This one took me forever to think of something for! Every time I thought I'd come up with something that would work, it turned out to be a song from the 60s. Apparently I'm just not a fan of this decade! Having said all that, I did finally come up with "I've Got A Woman" by Ray Charles

2. Name two 60s songs you like.
"It's The Same Old Song," Four Tops
"Both Sides Now," Joni Mitchell

3. Name three 70s songs you like.
"Cecilia," Simon & Garfunkel
"So Far Away," Carole King
"As," Stevie Wonder

4. Name four 80s songs you like.
"Forever Your Girl," Paula Abdul
"A Different Corner," Wham
"Say Say Say," Michael Jackson & Paul McCartney
"No Myth," Michael Penn

5. Name five 90s songs you like.
Do you have any idea how hard it is for me to pick just five songs from this decade?! Therefore these are completely random ones...
"Who Will Save Your Soul," Jewel
"Things That Make You Go Hmm," C&C Music Factory
"I Got A Man," Positive K
"Fantasy," Mariah Carey & ODB
"If I Ever Fall In Love," Shai

+

1) Your favorite band/artist is going to cover a song you love by another band/artist. Who are the bands/artists, and what is the song? Ooh, this is tough. This is also completely random, but how about Jamiroquai covering a George Michael song, like "Everything She Wants" or "Fastlove"???

2) You win a contest and get to own one of every single piece of memorabilia of one band/artist. Which band's/artist's crap do you want? I actually wouldn't want this from anyone! I have enough of my own crap. :-P
