File Under the Heading of Confidential.

ALittleBitofMiller@theDoubleD.bloggingmylifeaway

July 21,  2014

Well, this doesn’t happen very often, but this blog will be minus a few of its usual pithy comments.  There is so much this blogger wants to say, but all of it falls under the heading of confidential.  Confidential.  Now there is a word that gets stretched a lot.  Just how confidential are the secrets given to you?  When someone tells you something in confidence, do you keep it quiet, or do you share with just one person?  Is it okay for you to share the secret if you swear that person to secrecy?  What if they tell just one person, who tells just one person, who tells just one person…? You see were this is going, right?  The best course of action when you are trusted with a secret is to prove yourself trustworthy by not telling a single soul.  Even if keeping quiet makes you feel like you are going to burst like a big old ripe watermelon left out in the July sun too long.  Deep gusty sigh.  This blogger is not privy to the secret in confidence, but rather by observation.  Either way, it’s time to cease and desist.

Just know that this intrepid blogger is keeping eyes peeled, and as soon as it is okay to report all, you will be able to read it right here.  It would appear that CC the BB has accomplished her mission and will soon be heading back home.  Will her five days in Miller be enough time for our own DD the MOS to win her heart?  Time will tell. In the meantime, this vigilant blogger will check out another situation that seems to be heating up.  Family feud, anyone.  Seems that BND Numero Uno and BND El Segundo were going at it in their mum's front yard.  El Segundo left in a snit.  Later, BND ES was seen hanging out with GND #5 at the Double D bar.  Isn’t that the wrong GND?  Interesting.  You can be sure there will be more to come in the near future. So, check back often or you’ll be the last to know all the dope.

Speaking of which, it is time to punch the old time clock.  Wishing everyone, and two certain people, a happy Monday. ‘Nuff said.

@The Double D Series: Kiss Me Stupid

Is she the ONE?

Ahh.  Sunday.  Many people here in Miller would agree that Sunday is a day for God, family, and rest.  There is a feeling in the air here, when the bells of St. Anne’s Episcopal begin ringing, that defies explanation.  It just makes us Millerites happy to be living in our own little piece of paradise, snakes and all.

On to other more interesting developments, was this blogger the only one who saw our BB and Mr. I could fly if I had a red cape at church together this morning?  They certainly looked cozy sharing a hymnal.  The ladies’ tongues were wagging all around the congregation.  People are beginning to ask, “Is she THE ONE?” If you want an objective opinion on the matter, this blogger says, “Yes, she is.”  Now a certain someone just has to realize that God has sent him someone worth building a life with.  Remember, you read it here first, and you know that this intrepid blogger will be monitoring the progress of this relationship very closely and reporting it all right here.

Meanwhile, an important note, this is your last week without televised football.  Guys, be sure to spend some quality time with your significant other (SO), so when you are glued to the boobtube for the next four months, she will not be plotting your demise. "Nuff said.

Rumors of sparks

ALittleBitofMiller@theDoubleD.bloggingmylifeaway

July 19, 2014

Bless your little Texas hearts, it is certainly swimming weather here in Texas.  Miller is in deep East Texas and is blessed with an abundance of rivers, lakes, and various other swimming holes nearby for those who want to cool off by taking a dip.  A person would be hard-pressed to throw a rock around here without it landing in some body of water.  The downside to all that water is the humidity.  Walking out in the July heat is like being wrapped in a hot, wet blanket that makes the heat impossible to escape.

Speaking of cooling off, or maybe, heating up would be a better term because our visiting blonde is most definitely creating her own heat wave, if rumors can be believed.  Rumor has it that there was some good old-fashioned horseplay in the swimming pool at the Double D.  Our local night owl spied the blonde bombshell and Mr. DD himself in the pool.  Who believes that this could be the start of something worth watching?  This intrepid blogger will keep an eye on the situation—using night goggles if necessary--and let you know if the rumors flying have any merit.

Meanwhile, the lakes are overflowing with people boating, skiing, and jetting around like there is no tomorrow.  The beaches at the local lakes are crowded from daylight to dusk.  If you are out there, beware! Hitting the water during the midday hours is dangerous.  Swim before 10 AM or after 3 PM to avoid the worst of the sun’s harmful UV rays.  Take an umbrella with you, and use sunscreen, especially on those babies.  Don’t forget to reapply it often.  Nuff said.

Summer Sets In

 ALittleBitofMiller@theDoubleD.bloggingmylifeaway

July 18, 2014

The lazy, hazy days of summer are upon us.  Complete with the brutal sunshine that dries up the creek beds and leaches the moisture out of every inch of the state.  Even the air is barely stirring here in our little town.  Temperatures are holding steady in the high 90s.  The weatherman is predicting that those temperatures will bust into three digits before the week is out.  Three digits.  That means 100ᵒ or higher.  This blogger is breaking out in a sweat just thinking about that kind of heat.  What did man do before air conditioning?

Of course, the heat is keeping everyone inside these days.  This blogger would be forced to admit to being bored, bored, bored if a certain blonde hadn’t walked into the Double D yesterday afternoon.  Did you ever hear the joke about the blonde who walked into the bar one day and asked, “Can I get a drink?” “Absolutely,” the bartender said.  “What would you like?  The blonde blinked and stared at the bartender as if he was an idiot.  “And people say blondes are dumb,” she said. “I told you I want a drink.”  Hardy-har-har.  Okay, the joke stinks, but some jokes are funny because they stink.  Anyway, this blonde, not the one from the joke BTW and a certain gentleman with a remarkable resemblance to the MOS (Man of Steel) were seen having a cozy little dinner.  There are rumors of sparks flying between them.  One observer noted that it was like watching a meteor shower.  You can be sure that this intrepid blogger will be keeping an eye on the situation. 

Meanwhile, wear your hat if you venture outside.  The sun is brutal, and it doesn’t take long to become a victim of heatstroke. Anyone who has ever had heatstroke knows it ain’t no joke. ‘Nuff said.

BB Stirring up the dust at the old DDR.

ALittleBitofMiller@theDoubleD.bloggingmylifeaway

July 17, 2014

Now that the hoopla surrounding the Adair/Black wedding has settled down, it is fairly quiet in Miller. The rodeo has come and gone for another year, and while there is plenty of work to be done before the Annual Summer Mudd Festival at Moore’s Mudd Park, that doesn’t start up for another two weeks, which leaves us plenty of time to celebrate World Emoji Day (WED). That’s right, July 17^th will forever after be known as the day to go wild and use as many emojis as possible in your social media and text messages. Hey, if you want to go a step further and throw an emoji party, this blogger says, go for it. Now, since it is WED, you might be wondering which of those cute little icons is the most popular—that would be the ‘tears of joy’ emoji. On a side note, July 17^th is also the National Day for Ignoring Girls Named Julia, according to Urban Dictionary, which you should not be reading if you are under the age of thirty, and maybe not even then. However, if your name is Julia, please understand that we can’t talk to you today. (Too bad the keyboard doesn’t include emojis; tears of joy would be perfect right about now.)

Now, for the gossip you all love to gasp over. At the Double D Roadhouse, guests continue to make life interesting. Why, this afternoon a blond bombshell (BB) was seen kicking it by the pool. It’s fair to say, in this blogger’s opinion, she stirred up more than the dust. A certain man, with a strong resemblance to the Man of Steel (MOS), showed more than a passing interest. Could it be that love has once again arrived in Miller? You be the judge, Millerites. If it’s true, a few of our local ladies will be sorely disappointed. Another group to keep your eyes on: those five famous sisters we will call the Girls Next Door (GsND). Four of them are back in town, and these lovely ladies have a knack for creating havoc in their wake. This intrepid blogger will keep an eye out and report back.

Meanwhile, remember to drink plenty of water and avoid the heat—hehe—I meant to say, avoid the heatstroke. It’s July in Texas, y’all. ‘Nuff said.

Hang onto your hats, Buckaroos.

July 14, 2014

Ride ‘em cowboy.  The rodeo has come and gone for another year, and of course it rained and rained and rained.  The rain didn’t stop these die-hard cowboys.  It just made all the events seem more like the Summer Mudd Festival.  Speaking of which, our hometown boy, Miles Fuller did himself proud in the bull riding event.  He hung in for the full 8 seconds and came in third.  Hear tell he had a bruise or two to show for his 8 seconds of glory. 

With that in mind, let’s turn our attention to the arrival of another of Miller’s prodigal daughters.  Word on the grapevine is that this talented artist is taking over her grandmother’s store on the corner of Beryl and Wardley.  Gonna make it shine, she is.  Anyhoo, a certain boy next door--let’s call him BND Numero Uno--paid her a visit, and the two seemed MY-T cozy.  No, it isn’t the boy next door--let’s call him BND El Segundo--who took off after her when she left Miller fifteen years ago.  BND El Segundo has yet to appear, but the grapevine is betting he will.  No, folks, the BND seen cozying up with girl next door (GND) #3 has been living and working right here in Miller.  Could there be a family feud in the making?  Anything is possible when love is in the air.  Is it too soon to be talking wedding bells?  Man, this is unbelievable.  The “I dos” are still echoing in the chapel, and already another romance appears to be heating up. Hang on to your hats, it’s going to be interesting to watch the drama unfold. 

Meanwhile, July brings heat, heat, and more heat.  If you are going to spend time outdoors, wear a hat and keep hydrated.  Heat stoke is no joke.  Keep in mind that drinks loaded with caffeine will not hydrate you.  When you play, drink plenty of water or sports drinks.  ‘Nuff said.

Double D series--Book 3: Kiss Me Cross-eyed

1211 moaning and groaning, 1 celebrating.

ALittleBitofMiller@theDoubleD.bloggingmylifeaway

July 7, 2014

Have you ever heard such weeping and moaning in your life? Get a grip people, you knew someone would have the right date for the Wedding Pool, and well, since no one was allowed to choose the same date, there could only be one winner.  Seems that Mavis over at the feed store was the one to pick July 4^th.  She is celebrating her acumen by taking her family to eat at the Double D.  You can think what you want, but to this blogger’s way of thinking, FB is the winner.  Did you see the smile on his face when his little snowbird came down the aisle?  It was a sight to behold for sure.  Ah…love, doesn’t it make your heart go pitty-pat? 

With that in mind, it has reached this blogger’s ears that some of you are speculating as to who might be writing this blog.  Don’t that just beat all?  Next thing you know there will be a pool for that and old DT down at the water office will be laying down some new rules for participating.  What we really need is a new romance to heat up and give Millerites something a little more interesting to focus on.  You can be sure that this blogger will be on the lookout and when romance shows its red, red heart again, you can read about it right here. Speaking of new romances, did you catch the interview our own MoS did with Cavilla Gomez, the host of Tyler ENewz? This blogger may have to rethink his tag, Miller's Most Eligible Bachelor (MMEB)

Meanwhile, frogs are hopping like nobody’s business.  That usually means rain, which would be about right.  The rodeo is due in town this weekend.  Can’t deny the town needs the rain, but it sure puts a damper on the rodeo.  Yeehaw! ‘Nuff said.
