Elvis renews The Vows

Burning LoVe ~ Elvis

Todays the day.
After a very leisurely morning, 
We made our reservations at the Wedding Chapel. 
To renew our vows, by none other than Elvis.

But first we went shopping. 
Did our tourist look~see on the strip, 
took some pictures as we headed to the Mall. 
Yeah yeah I know, but that's where the prize was.
The prize being a new lipstick for Me
and some more Kiehls for The Chook Man.
We loaded up on a few touristy gifts too.

After lunch we headed back to the room 
where I commenced a Goddess Beauty Ritual 
and we donned our wedding attire. 
I've had this outfit planned for MONTHS!

We grabbed a taxi to our destination for our appointed meeting with the Great One.
And celebrated our Tenth Anniversary.

Afterward, We walked across the street to the Cuban Cigar shop
where The Chook Man celebrated by buying a cigar.
I celebrated by splurging on a pack of Clove Cigarettes from the head shop next door.

For the next hour, every where we went, Congratulations was heralded from high and low...

It was an evening I will never forget.

Sirius satellite raDio ~


A few Yulemas'es ago, The Man bought Me a Sirius satellite radio.
I have to say honestly that I was a little miffed because 
I had specifically told Him, do not get Me that for Yulemas.
He did.
{I had my EyE on something else; now I can't even remember what it was!}

Boy did I ever put my foot in mouth on that one...
eVen Priscilla was wondering how I was going to have it removed.
This has turned out to be one of the best, top three for sure, 
He has ever given me.

I was hooked on the 80s for the longest, 
and then the 90s, 
all the while interspersed with 70s music.

I was Time~Traveling faster than Mcfly on the Starship Enterprise.

You can listen to forensic shows, 
comedy routines, 
unknown bands, 
country ~ real or that other stuff, 
what ever you want pretty much.
even Martha F'n Stewart
{she's got a pretty good sense of humor}

You can bring the radio inside and play it through your stereo.
You can listen online {although they did start charging extra for internet use/play which totally ticked me off}
and it really was much better before they merged with XM.
You can create Your own package of hand picked stations.

Then,
there's the All Elvis,
aLL Day.


What can I say? I'm a fan....


Sirius radios vary in price depending on what features you want.
Sirius subscriptions run about $13 a month {as I said, not including the internet...bahss~terds!}

ELviS and The Dearly Departed ~ Peggy Webb


Imagine Johnny Bravo's voice, in the body of a hound dog....
and you've got Elvis.
Reincarnate.

and then, there's The Valentine Cousins,
who make me long for that never goTTen SiSter, 
or the Cousin that I used to be close to.
Great book.
Shenanigans, Laughter, and the Occasional Opinion of one Hip Hound Dog.
"It was Huge, Tiny Elvis!"
Anything that involves Elvis, automatically gets a Gold Star from Me.


Peggy Webb is a new found, happy treat.
She is Now on My "I really really like this author" list...
Born and raised in the South, I can totally appreciate the comings and goings of 
Southern Living 
{NOT the magazine, although, I can totally appreciate that too!}, 
Southern Family, 
and 
Southern PaSSion.
Not to mention, But will! the Great fOOd and often Quirky pEEps.
Did I mention that Elvis is a major theme???


The first in this {hopefully long series} is now on the Special Shelf
in My house, where I kEEp all the Greats
{greats in my humble onion}
A great wEEkend Read or Take Along bOOk, 
tuck it into Your purse to sneak a few pages.........
or chapters.
I look forward to reading the Second bOOk in this Series:
Elvis and the Grateful Dead.


PS****
I just read Ms. Webb's website and Great News!
As it is there are already Five bOOks in progress, and Ms. Webb states
that it is an open ended series so there are many more Adventures to come
from Elvis and the Valentines!!!
