Skip To My (Linky) Lou

I have no idea what that title means.

It just came to me in a fit of desperation, so I’m going with it.

Anyway, here are a few links I’ve been meaning to pass along but haven’t because I’ve been very busy 1) sleeping 2) trying to cough up a lung 3) wondering if I really am coughing up a lung 4) sounding like one of Homer Simpson’s aunts and 5) trying to manage my expectations about the season premiere of “Friday Night Lights” that was very understandably pre-empted for storm coverage but that should be arriving via Netflix ANY DAY NOW.

(You have no idea how much I’ve missed the Taylors. And Buddy Garity. And how I’ve wondered what in the world has become of Tim Riggins.)

(Anyway: the links.)

(Sometimes it takes me awhile to find my way back to my, you know, POINT.)

– On the giveaway front, there’s a brand new Seattle’s Best Coffee giveaway ($100 Amazon gift card) that just started today, and the Slim-Fast giveaway ($100 Slim-Fast prize pack) ends Wednesday.

– And speaking of giveaways, there’s a DVD leader kit of Priscilla Shirer’s Discerning the Voice of God Bible study up for grabs over at AllAccess.

– I’m guessing that most of the free world knows this already, but Ree is going to have her very own show on Food Network. I AM SO TICKLED. And also: very, very proud.

– I’m way behind on Royal Wedding news (though make no mistake: I WILL BE WATCHING), so I haven’t read much about all the pre-wedding preparations. But for whatever reason, this cracked me up.

– I’m a wee bit obsessed with Done Out in Deco (not an affiliate link, just FYI).

– Finally, when the fellas got home from church yesterday (the plague and I stayed home), they told me all about a video they’d seen. It’s called The Book of Acts in 3 Minutes – and oh, it was a hit with a certain eight year-old. To watch the video, click here, then scroll down the page and click on the title.

Hope y’all are having a great Monday!

  1. Because of your suggestion I am now a Friday Night Lights fan. I feel the same way about missing all of them. It will be so sad when it ends.

  2. Loved the video, and feel sure the song will not leave my mind for a month of Sundays. Thank You Very Much.
    Glad the plague is releasing it’s hold on you. Which brings to mind another song. Oh please let it all stop.

  3. As someone who will be sharing the wedding day with William and Kate, it would bring me great joy to see William and Harry enter the church in such a fashion. I certainly would watch the royal wedding as well, but I will be slightly busy at my own wedding. :)

  4. To add to the “(Linky) Loo:, please tell me you have seen this Korean Style- MS State FIght Song? Precious!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6BtGgFZwk4&feature=share

  5. Ohhhhhhhhhh, you wait!!! The last season of FNL is AWESOME!!! My husband preordered it on Amazon and it was here the day it came out – he finished it in 2 days.

  6. The Book of Acts in 3 minutes CRACKED US UP, too. Although the “circumcision” part was a little difficult to explain to my 9yo daughter as everyone in the church was laughing hysterically.

    Royal Wedding? CANNOT WAIT. I totally want salad plates with “William and Kate 4-eva” on them.

    I’m so sorry you have the plague. Let’s have coffee/Dreamcakes when you’re well. Because I miss you.

  7. I too was very excited for the premiere of FNL last week, but felt a little disappointed. Maybe I wasn’t focused enough.

    Dying to know how Riggins turns out and if Matt could ever please, please come back.

    So excited for Ree…this is HUGE!

  8. I am also very much looking forward to the royal wedding. I am on the east coast and coverage will start at 4 am. I’ve taken a vacation day from work under the guise of “a very long dentist appointment” so I can spend the morning watch the wedding and the afternoon napping. APril 29th can’t come soon enough.

  9. I needed that Royal Wedding video this morning! Too funny.
    I am getting excited about it!

  11. Keri Always says:

    Oh, that was funny. And I’m not one who is the least bit interested in the royal wedding at all. Gonna tweet this!

  12. Mary Kat's Mom says:

    Oh I LOVE the Book of Acts in 3 minutes! ! VERY COOL! ! ! I also love the Royal Wedding video too and am amazed at the look-a-likes! I will so be taping this and watching as soon as I can get myself home that day!

  13. How in the crap did I miss Ree getting her own show? I think I just squee-ed. I just love her.

    Speaking of shows, I think you and Melanie should just give up on podcasts and do your own talk show. That would just be so much fun! And then my three favorite bloggers would all be on my big ‘lectric pitchur box!

    I’m sorry to have to be the one to say this, but it needs to be said.

    Patti and Selma weren’t Homer’s aunts. They are Marge’s sisters, so Homer’s sisters-in-law.

    I knew you’d want to know.

    Oh, and sorry you sound like them! Get well soon! :-)
