Kohler Trumps Santa - A Young Boy's Christmas Wish Comes True
Meet Dustin Kruse - a little boy who loves toilets! His mom sent a letter to Kohler explaining his passion and they invited him and his parents to tour their design center. The video above shows him happily moving from toilet to toilet, flushing to his hearts content and loving every single minute of it. Dustin doesn't have any reasonable explanation about why he's fascinated with toilets, he just loves them. I can relate. I don't know exactly what it is about toilets that I find them so interesting, but I just do. No expla…
Hello Kitty Cup Cakes
I know somewhere in the ADHA licensure that there must be a warning against giving sweets to your patients, but I'm sure glad my dental hygienist Andrea overlooked it. Yesterday she gave me four Hello Kitty cupcakes that she baked just for me! My cleaning appointment was at 4pm and she came out into the waiting room to tell me she had a little something for me chilling in the backseat of her car. So we went outside to see and I resisted my impulse to lock arms with her and skip into the parking lot because I already knew what it was…
FreeSol - Fascinated ft. Justin Timberlake, Timbaland
I'm becoming quite a fan of FreeSol and just wanted to share their latest video. I could do without the snakes though.
Ice Ice Baby - MattyBRaps feat. Vanilla Ice
First of all, that is REALLY Vanilla Ice in this MattyB video. Secondly, how cool is it that Vanilla Ice hooked up with this YouTube sensation little kid to sing his big hit? It was nice to see Ice bust some of his old dance moves and I've got to give him props for being a good sport 'cause he's got to be so sick of this song by now. Me? Still loving it.
"Baby Its Cold Outside" - Zach & Donald Holiday Video
Nothing like a little celebrity Bromance to end Christmas 2011 on a funny note. I love these guys AND they're singing one of my Top 3 Christmas songs.
The Black Keys - Lonely Boy
I sit on the couch every Monday through Friday sipping my sweetened coffee and channel surfing before I get ready for work. I'll typically switch between Channel 7 and The Fox 25 Morning News to catch anything newsworthy and then move on to the music video stations like MTV, MTV2, VH-1 and Fuse. But when I was flipping through the channels, I happened to see the above video and thought it was just some stupid MTV reality show where some snarky teens were sitting on a couch laughing at this black man wildly dancing in front of a mot…
Redneck Raindeer
Redneck Raindeer : Well I suppose it wouldn’t be truly redneck if “reindeer” was actually spelled correctly. Either way I’m sure all the little kids walking by your truck will be super excited to see Rudolph meet his maker in this type of reindeer game. Florida

Prince William dancing with Vanessa Boateng during a reception on December 21st. I love how his wife Kate looks on amused with that big smile on her face while her husband is mean-mugging it. As Kanye would say, "That shit cray!"

That's Entertainment!
I went to That's Entertainment yesterday with my friend (and former co-worker) Christian under the guise of him looking to do a little Christmas shopping when really ANY trip to that wonderful comic book store is me trying to score relics of toys from my 70's childhood. My past few trips haven't been that great, but I'm not usually disappointed because I know there's always a chance I'll walk away without buying anything except another plastic Hello Kitty weeble-like toy from the bubble gum machine near the entra…
Falsely Accused Once Again
Angry Beagle I am fit to be tied right now and after you read my rant, I'm sure you'll get the dripping irony of that statement. I came home tonight and took Minnie out for her evening walk. Spencer and I affectionately refer to her walk as her 'round' because we do a nice tidy loop around our neighborhood which gives her a chance to stretch her legs, sniff out any new interesting smells and do her doggy business. (We actually have 3 levels of her round: short round, medium round and the long round. All that means …

In Time movie review
Spencer took me to see the new Justin Timberlake movie In Time last Tuesday. I've been jonesing for this one for quite sometime because the whole look of the movie is like one long, gorgeous I'm Bringing Sexyback video shoot, but in movie form for 109 beautiful minutes. But unfortunately, it was a terrible movie. Justin was perfectly fine in the movie, but he really didn't have much to work with as far as a script. The special effects budget was blown on that silly LED clock built into their forearms and Amanda Sey…

Today's Cartoon:
The Surprise of Their Lives!
This would TOTALLY be ME if I could SING and could turn back time by 33 years. Talk about a dream come true. I think back to my musical heroes when I see stuff like this and it just makes me cry. That little girl simply cannot control herself.
Mega Goki is Mega Creepy
WHO in their right mind would want a cockroach backpack? I was so creeped out when I came across this today on the site Geek Stuff 4 U that I had to post it. Attention All Moms: your kid is gonna want this and it's on sale for $63.24. But you better hurry up 'cause Halloween will be here before you know it. This actually reminds me of the Doctor Who episode 'Turn Left' which finds an enormous chattering insect pinned to Donna's back throughout the episode. Yuck. I'll be seeing this in my d…
"I Can't Jerk Off to Justin Bieber!"
I actually bought Esmee Denters CD because it was produced by Justin Timberlake and he appears on a few of her songs. THAT'S how desperate I am for new music from Justin Timberlake.

Scents and Insensibility
I told a random guy at work today that he smelled good. Of course, I apologized beforehand telling him that I was about to say something that most would deem ‘inappropriate’ in a work environment, but I said it anyways. The nice thing is he smiled and thanked me. Then he told me that one time it wasn’t the first time someone had randomly complimented him. One time he was on a beach and a woman walked up to him to tell him he had ‘nice toes’. Now THAT was way more inappropriate, don’t you think? I have heard of guys having a f…

Tastes Like Chicken
Pretty much every day I come across something funny to share with selected friends and co-workers. I sent this picture on the left out this past Friday morning with the subject line: TGIF My former co-worker and constant friend Jillian responded back: "Bet it tastes like chicken." My current co-worker and also constant friend Michelle quickly replied back: "Spoken like a true non-mom! True mom's know babies taste like shit! HA!" I love my co-workers and hopefully they constantly love me back.
Ood vs. iPhone
I just had a funny thought at work as I was on my way to the bathroom. I was nearly plowed over in the hallway by this woman walking toward me while looking down at her iPhone. It became obvious pretty quickly that she wasn’t aware of her surroundings as she headed directly towards me and I had to make a quick shift to the right to avoid bumping into her. So this experience got me thinking… The creature on the left is called an ‘Ood’ and it’s an alien from the current Doctor Who franchise. I’d like to draw your attention to that …
Summertime
We were heading back home this afternoon and this song came on. I thought it was sung by Dr.Hook. Spencer said no. Maybe Dr. John? Another no. I checked it out later and it's from a 70's band called Mungo Jerry. I really liked this song when I was little-probably because it was catchy and reminded me of a jug band. Wait. I'm remembering there might be Muppets involved...I'll have to check that out later. But after poking around on the 'Official' site of Mungo Jerry, I happened up on an awesome performance o…

Keenan Cahill Kills it with 50 Cent
I needed something to make me laugh this morning so I replayed this video of Keenan Cahill. How in the world did he get 50 Cent to make a guest appearance? Keenan's facial expressions are priceless. I think there should be a word for video-lip-synching kids spitting rhymes so dope.
Why Bother?
Why Bother , a photo by p!speaks on Flickr. Spencer and I are going to try a Tai Chi class this morning at Shrewsbury Health and Racquet Club. I know we won't be doing any 'downward dog' moves, but I'm hoping the first class is slow, easy and relaxing. Just like this Beagle named Bruce.

George Perry Eulogy by Bruce Perry
My name is Bruce Perry and I am Georges largest nephew, and one of his Biggest Fans ! When I was asked to give this eulogy, I must admit, I was a bit reluctant as I’m not a very strong person when it comes to these situations…dealing with death or dieting, have never been my strong points. In searching for the right words to describe George, I turned to my dad Francis (his only living sibling). He talked about family life on the farm in Hardwick, as young boys growing up (George being the youngest of 8 boys with one younger sister), how s…

My Father-In-Law George M. Perry
My wonderful Father-In-Law George passed away at his home on May 12th. The picture on the left is of George and my husband Spencer taken at a Perry Family reunion up in Vermont. George kind of looks miserable, right? That was George...he put up with anything for those he loved-even having a cheesy plastic lei wrapped around his head for a funny picture with his son. It's been a really tough week for us. I spoke briefly at George's funeral and wanted to post my Eulogy in case any of you are interested in what I had to say about Ge…

Packing For Our Trip
First of all, why didn't I buy myself this adorable Hello Kitty suitcase for our trip to Las Vegas? I waited until the last minute to prepare for our trip. It's Saturday and the only major thing I've been able to accomplish is getting our 2010 income taxes done and entering all my Coke reward caps. My purse has been emptied out onto the kitchen table and I know that I need to sort through everything and decide exactly what to carry in my vacation purse. But I'm finding that to be a bit more challenging than expected. If…
Sadie
Just returned from taking Minnie on her morning Saturday walk and we met a new friend. She's a 1-year old tr-colored Beagle named Sadie who was adopted from The Worcester Animal Rescue League last week. She was so cute that I tried to do a little investigative reporting to see if I could find her picture on their website since she was freshly adopted, but I didn't have any luck. Trust me when I tell you she is flipping adorable. This neighbor of mine explained that Sadie was about a year old and not trained yet. He admitted that …

All I Need Is The Tour
I cannot stop listening to Duran Duran's latest CD 'All You Need Is Now'...I've played it over and over again on my iPod while at work and I've cranked it endlessly in the car on the ride home. It is one of their best albums ever. It seems to me that every song could be linked back to one of their classics from the Planet Earth and Rio albums. Nick's keyboards playing homage to the simple haunting sound of 'The Chauffeur' on the song 'The Man Who Stole A Leopard'. And one of my favorites-'Lea…
I've Got Me The Winter Blues
Like everyone else, I'm entirely sick of Winter. I'm tired of dressing in layers. I'm tired of not having any control over my day when the weatherman tells everyone to expect more snow. Sometimes their predictions hit the snow fall totals pretty accurately and other times it feels like I should just buy me a copy of the Old Farmer's Almanac to see what's in store for us. The threat of the roof collapsing over my head is what's really bothersome right now. It could all just be the hype, but I tried getting a quote …
My New Favorite Weather Woman in the ATL!

A Smurf Smurfing a Dream
A Smurf Smurfing a Dream , originally uploaded by NJ Toy Geek . Is it wrong that sleeping is one of the favorite parts of my day? I'm fortunate that I get to sleep like every single day. Some of my fondest teen memories were coming home after school and napping in my parent's water bed. The mattress was heated and there were so many baffles built into the liner that it felt like I was floating on air. I remember they also had this really expensive velvet patchwork quilt that they had bought when they got the water bed. I t…
Snowtorious B.I.G.
Mother Nature gave me my birthday gift early this year - SNOW! In fact, she really went all out with my present 'cause she wrapped up the snow in all this beautiful wind that deceptively makes the snow seem all soft and fluffy when clearly it's not. Luckily for us, a blessed teen showed up on our doorstep this afternoon looking to shovel out the walk and the driveway. Now that's the kind of present I'm talking about and it doesn't even phase me one bit that I had to pay for it. I powered him up with glass bottles of Co…
Happy 30th Anniversary Duran Duran
Has it really been 30 years? Above is their latest video for their song 'All You Need Is Now' and might I just say how much I still love this band? I started loving them all the way back in 1982 so I've been a forever fan for 29 years. Happy Anniversary Duran Duran. I still love you as much as I did when I was twelve years old.
Utterly Horrifying - Toddlers & Tiaras
I finally got around to seeing this show and indeed it is the most disturbing thing airing on television. I know that's a pretty confident statement coming from someone who has never watched an episode of Jersey Shore, but I was horrified last night watching this beauty pageant show. When I saw this poor little girl dressed up to look like Madonna while her mother had her dancing to 80's themed music, the very awkward feeling that washed over me can only be likened to that uncomfortable feeling of watching a movie with my parents …
The Kindle vs. A Guilty Pleasure
I have lots and lots of guilty pleasures. For the most part, I tuck my guilty pleasures away because they really are meant just for me and no one else. That's what makes them a guilty pleasure. One of Kim's Guilty Pleasures Let's take the movie Grease 2 as an example: I would be simply mortified if anyone knew that I cry my eyes out everytime I see the scene towards the end of movie were Michael (aka Cool Rider ) is presumed dead after he's chased by the T-Birds through a construction zone. Poor Stephanie--she'll …
Farewell Pomegranates...It's been POM-Wonderful
I thought it would be appropriate to officially document the end of my Pomegranate season. Boy, it's been one hell of a juicy ride. I'm afraid to even consider how much money I've spent this year on my Pomegranate habit, but it has to be at least $200 bucks or more. The average price I paid at the supermarket this year was $2.50/each or approx. $20 per visit just on this fruit alone. My best deal was found just a few weeks ago up in North Conway, New Hampshire when we visited a Hannaford Supermarket during a minor snow storm …
Spogs...Who Knew????
Happy New Year to ME!

My good friend and former co-worker Jillian has family in England. She visits them a couple times a year, but one of the best things about her trips is she gets to bring back Cadbury chocolate. What you may not know about Jillian is she has a Celiac food allergy which prevents her from eating Gluten. Britain is m…
Hi, I'm Kim.
I'm a grown-ass kid at heart who would totally cook a soup made of glitter featuring Play-Doh stars and floating Weebles. I liked peeling glue off my fingers in elementary school and still love Duran Duran. I own too many bottles of salad dressing, love reading books about vampires, consider myself an insatiable entertainment junkie, and believe a rainbow makes everything better. And I hate Select-A-Sheet paper towels.
