My Big Fat Body

Here is me NOT sucking it in....I am starting a regimin TODAY....

Maybe I will Post everything I eat everyday so that people can read...yikes.

Maybe I will reach my dream of getting back to my birthwieght....only a joke. I have to be careful as I am totally freaked out by diets and food.

But I swear i will feel so much better if I just lose about ten pounds. I know nothing tastes as good as thin feels...

I've gained wieght lately, I go up and down..... I am so depressed about this unemployment and our current situation. PLUS, I love chocolate and Mojitos!!!!

F the Lakers

I hate the Lakers----I saw a newscast on TV today and I thought it was more "celebrating fans" but it was footage from Iran!!! California is completely falling apart and broken and these asshole fans are rioting in the streets, looting, vandalizing...unbelievable. Then a 4 million dollar parade? Kobe the rapist makes 45 million bucks a year? Argh....I wrote the editor of our local paper because of how much coverage they gave these "heros"...but barely anything when Obama was elected:

NEWSpaper? Please help me explain to my children how the Lakers win is more newsworthy than the Election of the first Black President of the United States?

Obviously the Press Enterprise knows the answer as 27 pages of your newspaper were devoted to the Lakers the week of their win, while only 5 pages were devoted to the coverage of President Obama the week of his election.

History Lesson?

I have yet to hear from the editor :)

And the WINNER is...

So, I was going to just choose a winner from last Saturdays Lottery...but as you can see from my number list below...we will have to wait until the NEXT Lotto for a winner.

The Wineville Chickencoop Murder House

Marc read the book called Nothing is Strange with You, The Life and Crimes of Gordon Stewart Northcott, because the murders covered in this book took place in Mira Loma about 3 miles from where Marc lived. In 1928, The town changed its name from Wineville to Mira Loma because of the stigma attached to the name after the crimes where discovered.

Only the street where the murders occured still bears the original name. Shortly after Marc read the book about the murder case, the Clint Eastwood film Changeling came out, portraying the horrific story of these murders from a differant angle. (We saw the movie recently---excellant!)

The actual house that Gordon Northcott (the boy killer) built and lived in still stands. It just sold after being in foreclosure for $95,000. We went there today, and it was a pretty creepy overcast day and knowing the history of the tiny farmhouse gave me chills. The property next door still has some of the Chicken Coop structures where the killings took place. The people that live there say that the area is haunted.

The photo on the top to the left, shows the house in 1928, after the gristly killings were uncovered. The bottom photo is from yesterday, the house still looks very similar, and alot of the fencing in the back of the property looks like it could be original. We walked down that little driveway yesterday, photo below.

I took my little doll Hoon, as she has a "changeling" hat like Angelina Jolie wore in the movie...plus my dolly looks sad like she knows what was at the house :(

"Well, thats my town"... Marc then drove me over to the little house where he had lived.
