All About Bob Dylan Lots of Bob Dylan There is no time to play when you spend half the month traveling. The kitties. Or, anything from my wish list.

Two Photos Revel in PA with Me Post Date: 10/13/04 Original Journal Date: 10/13/04 For the record, my grandfather's death bed was probably the single most beautiful experience of my life. While I sort through that, though, you can enjoy two photos. "Jocelyn," you may ask, "whatever is this?" And I answer you. This is the new way in which my neighbors delve into decorative punishment for the rest of our neighborhood. In case you can't tell, this is a nine-foot tall inflatable cat on a pumpkin. Yep. This is what they put in their yard for the holidays. I mean, along with the many colored plastic pumpkins and their proud statement of support for the troops. Behind the inflatable pumpkin, the ceramic bird bath and the plywood reindeer, there are five tiny pine trees that seem to be new from the last time I was home. I have no doubt that these tiny trees will be used in some way over the Christmas holiday to horrify me with new concepts in holiday decorative wonders. Yeah! Okay, this one. When I was a teenage girl, I had a substantial part of my wall in my bedroom that was a collage of men I found incredibly hot. I had many nights with me, my electric toothbrush and this collage. TMI? Anyway, there are some things about this collage (huge, isn't it?) that are still good. These include: Young Kiefer (circa Flatliners) Young Keanu (circa Bill and Ted) Young Val Kilmer (circa The Doors) The 1992 Pittsburgh Pirates (I had a HUGE crush on Andy Van Slyke) That guy who played Ed on Northern Exposure The entire cast of Young Guns However, there are some things on this wall that are very WRONG, including: Jason Priestly and Luke Perry Luke Perry a second time A Jordache fragrance advertisement The Soloflex dude (you remember, the original one, who wore the red shorts) Michael Rappaport - twice (begging the question, what the hell did Michael Rappaport do in the early nineties that got him into Seventeen magazine twice?) Remember the tv show Alien Nation? Remember the rebel son who ended up hating the aliens just to anger his parents? On my wall. Western PA. Embarssing me, and the rest of the nation. Luke Perry is totally hot! Um. I have inflatable Halloween decorations in my yard, too.
