Just a place to talk about what's going on with you.

Me? Aw, you're sweet for asking. I played soccer today for the first time in a while, and it turns out that one of the guys I play with has a 22-month old son I hadn't heard about. And learned in the way only sore muscles can tell you that absence makes the thighs grow painful :P

In other news, our house is being repainted (a LOVELY shade of off-taupe), starting tomorrow, some random person left a bag of clothes in my backyard last week (minus the bag part) and I'm kinda hungry.

But enough about me. How are YOU today?

Oh my gosh, you had to ask. Well, that's okay, because I have to tell. It's a long story, but if you live to laugh at me, you have to hear it.

This morning, the alarm clock went off. Beep beep beep beep (nonstop). So I rolled over onto my husband's side of the bed (he was napping on the sofa) and hit the snooze bar. Beep beep beep... So I hit every button. Beep beep beep... So I picked it up and started flipping switches and stuff. Beep beep beep. Now I'm sitting up in bed, and my husband (who should still be sleeping) shuffles in. Beep beep beep. I pull the plug out of the socket. Beep beep beep. I flip the stupid thing over and open the battery compartment. It's empty. Beep beep beep.

And while I'm sitting there dumfounded, staring at the "possessed" alarm clock.... my husband reaches over and turns off the alarm clock on my side of the bed.

Ahem.

So then I go to the store with a friend of mine, she drove, and the store is like twenty minutes from home. And we're throwing stuff in our carts, wandering about, and at 10:40 I get a phone call. From my husband, who is supposed to be at work by 11:00. "Um, hon...look in your purse." So I do. And there, looking all cute and innocent, is the only set of keys to our car.

Thank goodness the man has a sense of humour!!!

So... how the heck are YOU doing?

I'm fantastic

Got an A+ on my law essay and my teacher says "I'm a good writer" and " That I had her at the edge of her seat"

I took that math test...I think I did decent

So next person...how was your day?

Not bad :)

Getting ready for a job interview tomorrow at a private hospital nearby, after 4 months of unemployment. So wish me luck!

Spent the day looking at furniture on the net for our new apartment and drawing floorplans with this really cool software called smartdraw.

Talked on the phone with Lulah who is HUGE now btw! She's due in December :D

ummm ... I spend the first half of the day annoyed and craving coffee and cigarettes while fasting (it's Ramadan), then make up for it during the second half with a vengeance.

Missed Sleuth and everyone here, so thought I'd pop in and see how you were doing :)

So ... s'up? ;)

Hey hello again,

Got a lot to say

Ok, well first I uh....

Wait no...maybe...nah...uh

Maybe i don't have a lot to say

Anyway, I have 10,00 projects due. Got a thorn on my side, gotta think about what I'm going to be for Halloween. Oh, homecoming is coming up, I got my dress and that's about it.

So next person...

Hello Hello
Hello and how are you?
I'm fine I'm fine
And I hope that you are too

(What can I say, Barney is a cultural brainwash)

Eh it's only half way through the day and I have done very little... very! Well, in the way of work at least. I have decided I'm getting old. Olderrrr. Playing golf almost felt like exercise on the weekend, so tired afterwards I was. < and now I'm talking like frickin Yoda! Sheesh.

School holidays are over here so it is time for ME to go on holidays soon now that the unwashed masses are no longer roaming the streets and clogging the queues and checkouts.

I watched the first episode of the new series of the Bionic Woman and instead of being able to (and wanting to) can it have decided it's not half bad. Except I miss the d d d d d d dddddd sound they used to play when she runs. I do think though giving someone only 'one' bionic arm is silly though.

I went to the mega-hardware store. I don't know what any of the stuff does, but I think most of it would look cool hanging up in my shed. Ok so it's a coaxial wire stripper and I'll never use it... but it's red and purple and a has a cool twirly thing.

I have however replaced my line trimmer / whipper snipper which was pinched out of said shed recently, so look out monster weeds that are taking over the back yard, your days are numbered.

That's it.

Next...

S'goin on?

My day's going pretty good. I got my progress report today. (Almost like a report card but my high school likes to give in between reports) I got As and Bs. My parents were very happy about that. So nothing else is going on, so it's pretty quite. Anyways, NEXT!
How's It Goin'?

Oct-15-2007 22:09

Things are going great. The agency I'm part of finished 2 treasure hunts today. I'm waiting for turnover and eating Pizza. Can life get any better? So, what about you, how's it going?

Oct-16-2007 13:19

Well lets recap, The Ohio State Buckeyes are #1 in the BCS standings, The Cleveland Browns are at .500 going into the bye week and The Cleveland Indians are up 2 games to 1 in the ALCS. (Hopefully 3-1 by the end of tonight) To paraphrase Tony Rizzo, the morning talk radio show I listen to.

ITS GOOD TO BE ALIVE BABY!!!!!
