This isn’t suposed to happen here! We pay good money to live in southern California and there is NO SNOW ALLOWED! If this happens again, I just won’t pay my taxes! First it rained for about two weeks and now this. I don’t have snow boots. I don’t think they sell snow boots here. Denis and I were planning to drive to Las Vegas tomorrow and highway 15 is closed. No one here knows how to drive in the snow and cars were sliding every which way, so they closed the road. I guess Vegas will have to wait.
On second thought, I think I will pay my taxes. Our jails are overcrowded and Wesley Snipes already has the corner room.

This is me and Denis rafting down the American River back in the 90’s.
I didn’t have the stones to go shopping on Boxing Day (the 26th) but I went out last night. We actually have a mall with a Target and a Neiman Marcus. In the same mall! You can buy one blouse at Neiman’s for 60% off or buy five at Target for full price…and have enough left over for slippers, a set of bowls, two books, a lip pencil, and some toilet paper.
Our critter guy set 74 gopher traps on the back hill. What if the hill is all Swiss-cheesy inside and full of tunnels? When it rains tomorrow, those little rodents will have their own underground water park with a half-pipe and a wave pool.
I’m trying to learn Spanish so Denis got me a learning system on CD. Es muy bueno y me gusto mucho. Quero hablar espanol porque mi amiga, Antonia, habla espanol con migo todos dias.
That was lame, wasn’t it?
Merry Christmas, everyone!
All I want for Christmas is… more sandbags.
Geez! Give us a break! It finally stopped raining today (for now) and the hill behind our house is still there so we’re luckier than some people around here. We have sandbags along the back patio just in case, and we could use some more along the side for the next rain. That’s coming on Sunday. I went out to the back yard to check on the hill behind us and I saw this buck eating my grass. “Get out! Go away!” I kept yelling at him. “Stop eating the grass – you’ll expose the mud and cause as landslide!” The grass may be the only thing holding that saturated hill together! He glanced up & kept eating.
Oh, a reminder if you’re making turkey dinner, don’t forget my recipe for fresh cranberries. It’s posted on the Recipes page.
I’ll be making a “petite” roast turkey just for two of us with mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, green beans, cranberries, and deep dish pumpkin pie.
Then cookies. Lots of cookies.
The rain sucks but there is one bright spot. I went to the mall this morning for one last minute thing and found parking! Hand to God.

Remember when I said my hill was fine?
Look at the size of the boulder that just came down!
Good news: It didn’t hit the house.
Bad news: It missed the deer. 😉
Most people probably don’t know that before my talk show and before doing standup comedy, I was a musician & songwriter. I sang and played drums in a rock band and was also a backup singer for Wayne Newton in Las Vegas (I even wrote the theme music for the Jenny Jones Show!). So you can imagine how excited I was to sing again and especially to sing with the fabulous Brent Jones and the TP Mobb. It was back in December 2000.
I was so nervous that if it hadn’t been my own show, I would have probably cancelled. I’m glad I didn’t because now, I can share it with you. Click here for “Silent Night.”
