1. Wanna know what kind of meds Pamy is on! (Thinking of that When Harry Met Sally line, "I'll have what she's having.")

2. Ed, Herc and I took a 4-hour car ride thru CT today to see the fall foliage.

3. It's the first time in a long time that we've both felt well enough to get out and do something like that.

4. The highlight for me was spotting a field full of wild turkeys and a couple deer.

5. I'm ALWAYS HOT, Mocha. I empathize completely.

6. I made my lemony chicken breasts for dinner tonight. It's one of our favorites.

7. I just watched Philadelphia for the third time and cried through it for the third time. I am now watching Demi Moore in The Juror--for the second time. Good, scary movie.

1. "City of brotherly love, don't turn your back on me" hummmmm...now I won't be able to stop humming that song.

2. Just got home from my sister's birthday party.

3. We went to my parents' on the guise that we were playing cards this evening.

4. We began to play and guests started arriving.

5. K just kept asking what they were doing there and having everyone join the game.

6. Eight people were sitting around the table looking at one another and playing the biggest old card game we've played in years.

7. At last I asked her when she'd like to celebrate her birthday...it's actually tomorrow...and she said, "Well, when can we get together like this again?" LOL

8. Great cake, great ice cream, great company, a fun evening and I even sneaked in to check on Nino's folder!

1. It's 1:11AM. I just got home from a concert ... band called Interpol. We stood 5 back from the stage.

2. Last night I went to see another concert ... band called Metric.

3. Both bands gave excellent performances.

4. However, people who go to concerts can be really stupid.

5. Tonight I considered:

--> a. Pushing the dumbo in front of me who flailed and jumped and pumped his fists like he was at a Metallica concert. Dude, it's not heavy metal. Settle down.

--> b. Kicking the dude behind me that was smoking an apparently humongous doobie about 5 inches from the back of my head. It stunk so bad, and smelled like it was made of skunk grass. I was just waiting for him to burn my hair off.

--> c. Taking my scarf and using it to strangle the girl next to me who was obviously wanting to start a fight with me. She kept sizing me up and kicking my foot on purpose. I know the type. She just wanted to fight.

6. Instead of doing any of these things, I just channeled my zen-like outward calmness, and just ignored them all ... while harboring semi-violent fantasies in my mind.

7. Nonetheless, they were both great concerts. My two favorite new albums of the past year have been Metric's "Old World Underground" and Interpol's. So it's interesting that the two bands played Vancouver back to back.

8. My throat is scratchy from talking too loud, and having so much marijuana smoke in the air around me. (Yes, Vancouver is very lenient in this regard.)

9. Goodnight everyone. I'm not even sleepy.

1. Yesterday early in the day it was feeling like August- 70 degrees, humid. Around 2:30 I went to Ace to UPS my mom this ugly doll she wants to make a gag gift out of and some Korean Barbeque sauce.

2. Did yu know they charge more for rural addresses? I didn't and I work there. Yep, a little box like that and it costs $10 to mail. Grrr. but the post office is farther away and I asn't sure if it would be open or not.

3. As I was getting in my car to leave, the tornado sirens started going off. Apparently one siren is at Ace because it was LOUD.

4. The sky was really cool- looking one was down the street was dark, then there was the edge of the front and in the other direction it was blue sky, sunny, and a few light clouds. Weird sight- wish I had my camera.

5. So anyway, I left :-) Home is only about 3 miles towards the sunny direction so I figured I'd go for it. Of course Tim called right about then and said I had to get home NOW.

6. Yeah, he get's freaked out pretty easily and I know it drives him nuts that I just want to look out the window at the cool clouds. I got home and he's got all the junk packed up and wants me to rush to the basement. So I went out on the balcony.

7. We never did get to the basement. We got downstairs to ground level and went outside to watch. I had my camera by then. Oh, then Tim acts like he never planned on going down there and he wasn't scared afterward. What-evah!

8. So that was my exciting weather story. It poured and hailed a little afterward.


9. And now, who can resist little Simon in his Queen costume. I about died when I saw this- he's the cutest thing! She mailed me about 8 of these pictures and he's just as cute in every one.


10. Happy Sunday everyone. Another weekend's flown by!

1. Kaili, OMG, those are the cutest pictures I ever saw! Where did your mom get that costume? Was it made specifically for a dog? (Loved the scary storm pic, too!)

2. Contentedly doing wash and folding clothes while watching old movies. (Hubby watching sports.)

2.1 I will leave mine at 2, so Pamy's 3 works. Next should be 4. And Happy Birthday again, Kady!!!

I love the doggie costume!! (...and I'm glad you didn't have a tornado to deal with...ack!!)

2. Our hospital has a Pet Therapy program and one of the dogs was dressed in a similiar costume but he was a Sheriff....I was cracking up, he was so darn cute! You gotta love those fake arms/hands!! I only wished that I had my digi camera with me then. So now I'll be taking my camera into work with me everyday just in case I see other doggies dressed in a costume!! LOL!!

3. Speaking of work, I've been given an offer to come aboard full time in my new manangement position. So I counter-offered to see if the hospital gawds would give me a bit more flexibility in having some days off. Selfish? Nah!!...I'm playing my trump card and going for it, because all they can say is "no". I am adamant about having 1-2 consecutive days off so I can re-charge my batteries and if they say "no", I have Plan B all set to go...LOL!! I'll let you know how it turns out.

1. alterego and i decided we would be going out for halloween again this year, so that means putting a costume together. i immediately decided i wanted to be mary katherine gallagher.....SUPAHSTAR! loves it!

2. i found the costume, but it is *cough* FORTY DOLLARS. which i won't pay to buy something to only wear once (not to mention it was tight around my thights and that's basically where the bottom of the costume was....so i went and bought some navy, yellow and white plaid fabric at walmart to make a skirt out of, a white s/s collared top and a navy sweater vest at the thrift store for a grand total of $3.50. (oh and the fabric was $4. i already have some fake glasses (they make me look smart and they are trendy. lol). i also got black hairspray, and a black piece of ribbon to make the tie thingie for my neck. LOVE halloween and love dressing up! woo hoo!

3. i also bought a costume for pedro, my sister's chihuahua, that she couldn't find for him. it is a biker dog costume....styled like the pics of kaili's dog up above. this tiny little dog in a biker outfit. TOO FUNNY! i won't tell you how much his costume cost, because, well it was more than all of my stuff put together. lol did i mention it's my sister's birthday? lol

4. went to a breast cancer rally that was held at the mall yesterday. also bought another breast cancer awareness jelly bracelet. i believe this one is just a local thing. all proceeds from this one go toward breast cancer research.

1. Zoe had a wipe out at day-care the other day. My wife called me on the cell and said, "There was an accident at Day care...I'm at the ER." "what happened?"..."Zoe was riding in a wagon that another kid was pulling and he turned real fast...Zoe fell out and smacked into a concrete water fountain. I think she broke her nose."

2. The Doctor's looked at it and couldn't tell if it was broken due to the swelling. She's going to the ENT and they are gonna take a look at it. It's scratched up, but I don't think she broke it.

3. She won't let us touch it. Also, she messed up some of the dental work she had done last week during her surgery...they're gonna have to redo some of it.

4. I raked the leaves in my yard today. The girls had so much fun playing in the piles of leaves. We took pictures and I will try to post some in my folder later this night.

5. Dallas got spanked today.

1. Poor Zoe. I'm so sorry!

2. I had a great weekend.

3. I'm sucking this year in my football pool, but may win this one. It has come down to MNF points again between me and my BiL.

4. We had the best time at Homecoming on Friday! It is so much fun to sponsor seniors! Their joy is infectious!

5. This coming weekend, FINALLY, is my first event with the trail club I joined in September. I'm excited!

6. I've been so busy since Friday, that I haven't worked out. Naturally, it was more important for me to post Dorothy Parker poems all evening than go running! Ah well, there is always tomorrow! But I need to get cracking cuz the 8 K is in 3 weeks!! Erlack!

6.13 Hope everyone had a good weekend! And since it doesn't sound like Nick did, here's hoping his week is better!

6.15 I would pay money to see JBean as Mary Katherine Gallagher. Sometimes, when I get nervous, I stick my fingers under my arm, and I smell them like that. That's bad.

1. Just back from the conference in DeKalb...not many at my session and things in DeKalb were a comedy of errors, to be nice about it!

2. I stayed in a REAL skanky motel. SIGH!

3. Went to my brother's last night and his kids wanted to have a slumber party in the basement with Aunt Marm. We had interesting sleeping arrangements on the u shape couch. DANG, that 5-year-old creeps all over the place in the night! LOL!

4. We had piano lessons and then carved pumpkins and got them ready for a weiner roast.

5. My brother is the world's best Dad! He's also very single right now. (Cheaters and the mentally unstable need NOT apply!)

6. I am tired of driving the rental car. Should have gotten one with cruise control!

7. I am going to call the computer place tomorrow to see if they can salvage my laptop!

1. My husband went to Cincinnati today-he has meetings there Monday and Tuesday.

2. Me and the cat cleaned house today because maintenance is coming to check fire ext, smoke detectors, and furnace.

3. Me and the cat cleaned house until he annoyed the crap outta me and I started the vacuum so he'd run under the bed and quit helping me.

4. The place wasn't bad, just cluttered, and needed dusting. Probably cleaner than alot of the yayhoos that live here but ya know, I just had to clean.

5. I fell in love with another man today, a magic man. No my husband doesn't know, but go ahead, tell him, I don't care.

6. I fell in love with Mr. Clean and his Magic Eraser. He cleaned the stains in the lovely nasty green kitchen sink, stains that were there when I moved in and bleach and comet didn't take out. He cleaned the stains that Miss Clairol left on the bathroom vanity.

7. I wonder if I'm the only one that when I know I'm having visitors I vacuum, then smush the vacuum marks around so it doesn't look like I just now vacuumed.

8. Supper was just mahvuhlus. I smushed down grands biscuits, put some steamed hamburger and mozzarella cheese on them, then baked. Yeah mahvuhlus....not. [I don't cook when my husband is gone, can you tell?]

1. good morning all.

2. We went to my Grandmas 98 birthday party yesterday...she was tired and can tell she is starting to feel her age. Kids had a blast and it was nice to see the aunts and uncles and my cousins again (Grandma had 10 children so it is a big family)

3. Got a bunch of photos from the party, will post them later

4. dd got sick in the van 1/2 way home last night and was sick most of the night.

5. She has not gotten sick since about 4 am this morning and is now laying on the couch

6. I am extremely tired from getting up and down last night with dd. I feel like I have not had any sleep yet.

7. No sun today, I think we have had a total of 3 hours of sunshine (if that) in the past week..this dull weather sucks.

1. Hello fellow factoids! Long time, no see. I've been in lurk-mode these past few weeks.

2. I started a new job since I've been away. It's completely different than anything I've ever done before and I'm really liking it. I've been working some long hours but hopefully once the holidays over I'll be able to slow down a bit.

3. I'm home sick today. Yuck! I woke up yesterday with a sore throat, and it's just gotten worse and worse. I really hope it's not the start of the flu.

4. Our "office redecorating" project is really coming along. We ordered and received our wallpaper border and selected the paint for the walls. The painting is pretty much done except for a bit of touch-up work.

5. The color is so rich! I love it! It's called "Bayleaf" from the Eddie Bauer collection at Lowe's. And this is border we chose:
border

6. This past Friday, the 22nd, it was exactly one year until my wedding day. It still seems so far away, but there's still so much planning to be done.

7. We did book our limo, and it is FABULOUS!
limo

8. Ok, I should be off laying on the couch drinking hot tea right about now. Gosh, I hope I feel better tomorrow.

9. Everyone have a great Monday and an even better week!!!

1. My daughter is doing scrapbooks for six seniors @ $50 each and another for free

2. That comes out to about 10¢ an hour!

3. One of the seniors is my #1 granddaughter

4. My #2 granddaughter's growth on the pituitary gland is still there and they aren't going to do anything about it for now

5. #2 granddaughter just started driving lessons, so everyone in Michigan - watch it!

6. My loan was approved

7. Now I'm scared

8. I'm also doing poorly in the football pool because IMO all the teams who are supposed to win don't!

9. I knew the Colts were going to lose to the Jags - instinct - but darn it, I wanted them to win anyway!

10. I voted for the Colts

1. The dog costume Simon had on was from Target I guess. My cousin said they had other ones she wants to go pick up....I think Simon would make a great Cowboy!

2. I woke up with a very, very sore back today. not really my back but the muscle on the left hand side. Ouch!

3. Not much new to report today. I'm at school again. This morning was Language again, then the afternoon is Health. I have a two hour break and I'm on it right now :-)

4. Whoops- I have to add a fourth fact. I'm going to try to take off work from UPS next Tuesday because otherwise I may not have time to vote and I'm kind of nervous about doing absentee... I like the feeling of putting it into the machine. It makes me feel like it's for sure going to be counted then. I don't just want to drop it in a mailbox.
