This was one of the biggest highlights of my life. Jack Nicholson had his arm around my shoulder for at least 20 minutes. I kept thinking when will he remove his arm from around me? How long can this last? Is he feeling what I'm feeling? How long would it take to get my ball and chain out of the room? Am I wearing underpants? Oh, the thoughts flying through my head. Mercy me !!!
Good one mama!! You look nervous there... very hip & cool in your crochet wrap, but nervous.

That was back when Jack could wear a belt. I don't think he has a waist anymore. But you look totally hot!

I am so hooked! First thing I thought this morning was "It is Famous Friday!". Anxiously awaiting another good laugh!

You are a shameless name-dropper. I like that in a person. Keep it up.

Do you have something to tell us, mom? I always thought the way Colleen moves her eyebrows was a freak gift. Now, I'm starting to think differently....

One other thing, why are all of your "Famous Friday" features of the male persuasion? HMMMM...
Posted by: Heather | 06/12/2009 at 01:04 PM
Wow, I'm so jealous... I love Jack, loved the ball and chain reference.

Love it!! I ran into your daughter Heather in the hallway today at SAP and said, "It's famous Friday!"
I'm already hooked on your blog!

Here's my caption for the picture: "I wonder if Jack likes Boggle as much as I do?"
Your blog is such a joy. It always makes me laugh.

Hi Colleen's mom! I'm pretty sure you have an actual name, but I don't know what it is. Welcome to the blogosphere, which you will discover is the greatest time suck in the whole wild world. Colleen's post about your Boggle habit was my first exposure to freshvintage and I have been a fan ever since. If I still lived in Wynnewood PA, I would so be pulling her hair over vintage stuff at garage sales. Here's wishing you lots of luck and fun in your new venture. Can't wait until next Famous Friday!

May I be the first to introduce to you, my sister, Eileen in all of her hilarious glory. She has always been a hoot. Now you know where Colleen gets her charisma. Her other kids are equally as gifted. It must be from "our" side of the family.
