The end of a long week...

TGIF. Dajon gave me a CD to listen to this afternoon. It's pretty good, it's Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings. Kind of retro Diana Ross, I think. Saw Vantage Point this week too. It's a pretty good movie. It wasn't that difficult to peg one of the bad guys right off. Looking forward to coloring some Easter eggs this weekend at Randi's house. We've got 5 dozen, but we're old pro's at that, she and I have been coloring eggs since High School together. We're having an egg hunt at Church on Sunday. Which reminds me that I need to buy Cranberries. I've never bought a cranberry in my life. Not even sure where to get them, but was asked to bring some on Sunday. ??? Oh well.

So if you haven't been to Robintino's in a while, it's worth checking out. They have great Spaghetti! And there prices are really really great. I went there last night for the first time in probably 23 years, seriously. It's my new favorite place.


Also, want to say pray for Mikell W's family. If you remember her. She was in a serious car accident and was in a coma for a few days. I think her family were taking her off of life support yesterday. I'm sure it's not an easy thing for them to go through and it makes me really sad that Mikell's life turned out the way it did. Her three children are in good hands though, so that is good.

Oh, and the little bicycle has moved over here now. Killbill was very jealous that it wasn't him sitting next to me, but that's just how life is sometimes.

Well, I just want to send out good wishes to both Shamo and Woolsey who are packing up and moving in/out this week. Oh and congrats to Woolsey on her new job!

So, our office gets to leave at 3 p.m. today. Yeah, so Happy Easter.

Plant ya now, dig ya later...

Just a quick little post

So one of the girls in the office today just received an application for life insurance from an excecutive at a well known ciggarette company. On the app he noted that he used to smoke, but quit twelve years ago to "improve his health and well-being."

Happy Green Day

“May the light always find you on a dreary day.
When you need to be home may you find your way.
May you always have courage to take a chance…
And never find a frog in your underpants”

Lunching Out

I am not the most adventerous person in the world as you know, but sometimes I'm willing to try new things. Went to East Coast Subs today with Stacie and all was going well. We pulled into our parking space and went to pay the meter and noticed we still had 32 minutes left. Cool huh. The poor guy next to us had just gotten a ticket, but I didn't feel too bad, especially since the car was Mercedes. Ha, ha, too bad, jackass. Anyway, I ordered an BLT with Mayo. Now, it wasn't like the BLT automatically comes with mayo as the women who took my order specifically asked me if I would like Mayo on the sandwhich and I said, "Yes, I would like a little bit of Mayo, thank you for asking." She then wrote it on the order form, handed me my cup for my drink and asked me to sign the receipt. So, then can someone tell me who in the world eats MUSTARD on a BLT sandwhich??? Does Mayo translate to Mustard in Spanish? Because when I got my sandwhich it had, not a little mayo, but a TON of mustard! What the H-E double toothpick? It's a good thing this did not happen on a Tuesday. It would have just added to the wretchedness of a Tuesday. Nope, it's Wednesday. I was calm, puzzled, but calm, as I went to the front counter and asked for a side of mayo. Next time I go there I will be sure to either 1. order something else or 2. Say no to Mayo. It's a life lesson, I guess. ;-)

Mostly for Shamo...

I heard an interesting question on the radio today. If it came down to it, who would you vote for President if you had to choose between Obama, Clinton and McCain if you knew for a fact that one of these people is going to have to choose one or more of the next Supreme Court Justices?

Have I ever told you that I hate Tuesdays?

Well, I do. Just in case I haven't mentioned it a hundred times before. The only reason we have Tuesdays is to get us from Mondays to Wednesdays. Sunday has it's purpose, of course, it a day for most of us to go to church. Monday, it's pretty much the beginning of the work week, most people hate it, but the week has to start somewhere. Wednesday, half way there now. Thursday, only one more day to go for the much loved Friday. Friday, everyone looks forward to Friday, it's the final day of the work week. Then of course Saturday, who could hate Saturday. But Tuesday, no one looks forward to Tuesdays. It's a total in-between day. It's just there as a filler. ....Can hardly wait 'till it's over. UGH.

PEEP show

All I can say today is TGIF!!!!

New Book

So, I finished Persauasion a few days ago and it was better than I remembered. I'm going to start reading Pride and Prejudice on Monday with Shamo. But in the meantime, I started a book last night called "Bad Monkey's" It's a bit strange, but so far it's really good. It's not that big so I will probably finish it by tomorrow.

It's been a Jane Austin Weekend

So I watched "The Jane Austin Book Club" (TJABC) this weekend and it was So good. I looked for "Becoming Jane", but they were all gone, so I couldn't watch it. (Shamo, I tried). Anyway, after I watched "TJABC" I decided that I wanted to read Persuasion. But guess what, to my shock I did not have it!!!! :-) So I decided I would have to buy it. I was also missing Sense and Sensibilities. So Friday, I went to Barnes and Noble to get it. I went with my friend Cara and her adorable new baby girl Berklee, who has TONS of hair and is so tiny and has the most perfect little fingers and toes! Anyway, isn't it funny how when you have something in your mind you end up seeing it everywhere? So when we were at Barnes & Noble, I swear they had a ton of display shelves with Jane Austin items and Jane Austin related items everywhere. It was just funny.

I got my books and started reading Persuasion on Saturday. So then, what just happened to be on TV last night but Persuasion! On PBS. It was pretty good. It's a new adaptation that just came out apparently. It's not my favorite, that's for sure! My favorite Persuasion movie is the one with CiaránHinds and Amanda Root. I just love how they played their characters. I don't know why, but for some reason they had poor Anne running around Bath like a complete idiot at the end! What the heck was that? Although the guy who played Captain Wentworth was pretty hot and possible worth running after.

So that was my Jane Austin weekend. Everyday had a Jane Austin moment. If you haven't read any of her books, you should. Seriously! They are the best! Just pick one at random and read!
