My friend from college worked at the California Pizza Kitchen in Grapevine and they would have pumpkin cheesecake on the dessert menu in the fall. Good stuff to help my case of the munchies!

Maybe I was doing it wrong. Maybe I was supposed to rub pumpkin on my skin instead of sunblock. Do you think that would have worked?

You must be able to find pumpkin cheesecake where you are now.

The best that I can do is pumpkin pie at either HEB or Walmart. The food options in Wharton are pretty limited.

now that I think about it there is a Cheesecake Factory at the First Colony mall in Sugarland. I went to that mall about a month ago when my brother was having some dental work. I doubt that I would be able to make it today though since my brother doesn't get off of work until 7 p.m. and he will have another 12 hour shift tomorrow.

There was a reminder on tv this morning: Kim Kardashian (it's her birthday today) will be on this seasons premiere showing of 2 Broke Girls. I wonder how many DUers will be watching.

Here she is describing stage disasters; her comic timing is great, and in a foreign language! She always seemed like a fun person.

People give me buttons they find and sometimes they buy me unusual ones.

No clue what I will do with them all.
