Politic Free Zone?

So I won't be telling you who I am voting for.  I am actually very interested in politics and follow them closely.  Always have.  As a registered independent, I don't vote by party.  I vote by issue. By who I really think will do what is best for Americans.

And, issues that are important to my family, may not be on your priority list.  That's a okay with me.  

I have been quite surprised how heated and well, aggressive, people become over the candidates. There isn't one that I love.  And, honestly, there are things I like and dislike about both tickets.  I will make my decision closer to the election, and after the debates.

But this blog isn't a place to discuss that.

It is however a place for us to laugh.  And this cracked me up.  Is Tina Fey amazing or what?

I watched this last night, too. I was cracking up. The first time I saw Sarah Palin, I just knew somehow Tina Fey would end up doing something with that uncanny resemblance. She even had that accent down.

Too funny!

Thanks for the clip! I knew Tina Fey would do a great job impersonating S.P. but I didn't get to watch it last night.

We watched last night. And the resemblance. The voice. It's uncanny. And oh so funny. Now, the rest of SNL last night...not so much.

I am one of those people that is very passionate about politics. But at my core, I honestly feel this way: as long as people are paying attention to the issues and then taking the time to get out and VOTE, no matter who they are voting for, I support that person. It's the very least we can do :]

Oh, my husband and I were just howling! I'm so glad you posted this.

Thanks so much for coming by on my SITS day! How about if I send you a little of our fall weather to go with your decorations? I will have to break mine out soon--the summer stuff is not fitting so much anymore!

Have a great week!

Tina Fey for president! No--wait--Tiffany for president! We need someone with Fall decorating skills running our country :)!

I know there are about a million blogs out there devoted to politics, and I guess if people are fully interested in that, they'll find them. But a little peek into your opinions on certain issues or candidates isn't bad either. Shows you care and that you're intelligent :)

Loving from one independent to another!

And thank God for Tina Fey. I'm in love with her.

My husband DVR'ed this, and we watched it yesterday. That opening bit was hilarious and Tina Fey did an AWESOME job as Sarah Palin.

I vote by issue too and don't side with one party or the other.

I missed SNL, but saw the you tube clip on Lula's this morning. It is pure genius. Tina Fey is in fact Sarah Palin.

My Big News and a $100.

Image
It just dawned on me that I have had some super exciting news that I haven't officially shared! You all know how I feel about the importance of optimism and resiliency in the successes I've had in my life and how important it is to pass those on to my son. Did you know my company is named "Bright Future Managment"? Doesn't get more optimistic than that! A few months ago, I was contacted by a PR firm representing Pepperidge Farm. They were interested in interviewing me for a faculty position for Fishful Thinking , an initiative that offers parents tools for fostering optimism in kids. Now, as the director of one of LA's largest and oldest private summer camps, I get contacted to participate in all kinds of things for kids... usually, I pass, as I want to spend all my free time with my boys. But in this case, the message and the presentation was so incredible, I jumped at the chance and agreed to the interview. Within the first 5 minutes of the interview I wa

OB...No, not another tampon post.

I 'd like to start by proclaiming that I am in madly in love with my husband. In no way does this moment of "gyno-attraction" diminish his hotness and my love for said hotness. Having said that, let's begin. So I feel pretty safe in saying my OB is hotter than your OB. Okay, make that "was", because when we left LA for St. George, I had to leave his glorious, silver, stirrups. But he is worth a post. Trust me on this . Let's start with our first (and only) encounter. It was my 6 week follow up after having The Boy. My regular OB was out of town, so they assigned me to Dr. McHottie. I walked into the room with no idea of what was to come. I got undressed (from the waist down of course) and stuck my feet in the stirrups. Then he walked in. A cross between Jake Gyllenhall and Channing Tatum. In scrubs. G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. I got all kinds of flustered and the conversation went something like this. McHottie : "Hello Mrs. R." (Cleverly remin
