Jenny Craig “after” picture

I found this dress at a second hand store (yes, I’m THAT cheap) and thought it was perfect for my “after” picture. What do y’all think?  I’ll add my before picture here.  Maybe that will make the dress look even better 😉

Friday Funny…Weird Al Style

No, this isn’t a link to Weird Al’s latest.  This is something I do to song lyrics in my head all the time.  I hear a catchy song and think, “Hey, that would be fun if I changed those words around a bit.”  Well, here’s my latest version of Jason Aldean’s Crazy Town.  There’s a link in his title in case you’ve never heard it so you can sing along 😉  This is for all of my Romance Writer friends on Romance Divas!

Roll into town, step off the bus,
Shake off the where ya came from dust,
Grab you manuscript, walk down the street,
Sign says New York, New York you see,
But I have found,

(Chorus)
It’s a crazy town full of authors’ dreams,
Everybody writes, everybody subs,
Manuscripts with a touch of steam,
To be a star you gotta bang, bang, bang,
Bang those keys ’till the Nora comes out,
Make all the romance fans scream and shout,
We love it, we hate it, we’re all just trying to make it,
In this crazy town,

You pay your dues, and you write for free,
And you pray for a New York destiny,
You cut your teeth in the smaller pubs,
And live off the tips from your writing buds,
‘Till you find a cool new voice,
And you smile when the agent makes another choice,

(Chorus)
It’s a crazy town full of authors’ dreams,
Everybody writes, everybody subs,
Manuscripts with a touch of steam,
To be a star you gotta bang, bang, bang,
Bang those keys ’till the Nora comes out,
Make all the romance fans scream and shout,
We love it, we hate it, we’re all just trying to make it,
In this crazy town,

One year they reposes your truck,
And the next you make a couple million bucks,

It’s a crazy town full of authors’ dreams,
Everybody writes, everybody subs,
Manuscripts with a touch of steam,
To be a star you gotta bang, bang, bang,
Bang those keys ’till the Nora comes out,
Make all the romance fans scream and shout,
We love it, we hate it, we’re all just trying to make it,
We love it, we hate it, we all came here to make it,
In this crazy town,
It’s a crazy town.
