1. My friend just called to tell me our Raider tickets have access to the East Side Club. 2. It might rain so that would be a good deal. 3. We can hobknob with the big sports stars there. 4. We are going early to a big tailgating party that my brother is having. 5. Lots of food and drink to be had. 6. Lots of food and drink WILL be had. 7. I think it will be a fun but long day!

1. Just posted about GAL and Colossus's wedding in the "wedding Planning" thread. 2. I'm hoping my feet will thaw out by the morning! LOL 3. My niece and nephew are staying over tonight at Grandma and Grandpa's. They have made artistic shirts with markers and rubbing alcohol and they SMELL! Also made bands with their names spelled out in bead and sports balls on them. That's just TOO crafty for me all at once. 4. I got lost twice today going cross country through rural Illinois. I think I need a new atlas! 5. I'm so excited that I got to see a 1880 Hook and Hastings organ at GAL's chapel. They are quite rare and most are in museums. H & H were one of the first organ builders in America and most of their instruments are on the east coast. 6. My neighbor brought over a pie last night to welcome me to the neighborhood. That was nice. 7. At Rocky Horror last night one of my students, whose name is Janet, PLAYED Janet. She was surprised to see me at the end. Maybe she should be in the practice room more so she can actually graduate....or maybe she'll just play Janet at Rocky Horror showings! 8. My cat slept in her cat bed that I put inside a wicker laundry basket to block the wind. Hopefully it will warm up a little next week!

1. Oh look nine facts 2. I feel like heck today 3. sinuses draining down my throat 4. for those who are ailing with colds and such - I highly recommend sinus rinse. www.sinusrinse.com 5. yes this is gross. 6. I do a sinus rinse twice each day at my allergists recommendation. It has helped. 7. every time I do a sinus rinse a gripe about how gross it is. 8. today is church day, service, then teaching sunday school, then a small group meeting this evening as part of our 40 days of purpose. 9. If I keep feeling smucky that small group meeting is getting blown off.

1. GINGER!! You are the QUEEN!! 2. Thanks for the updates factoids (ahem Ms Schtickler! 3. I also LOVE Aquaphor, been using it for 19 years! Its expensive, but works! I also love the hand cream with glycerin in it! 4. Today is DD 8th Birthday!! 5. I remember having the day so planned, then the doctor made me switch hospitals, and he didnt show up for her birth! 6. It was a dark and stormy night, and the hospital maternity wing was overloaded, so God and my Angels were there for the delivery!! (no joke, a nurse came in the room saw DD pop out, and screamed, one nurse ran to the baby, one nurse threw a syinge at her! Its funny now, it was scary 8 years ago, I grabbed dh, and said dont you dare leave that babies side - EVER! And he didnt, and it took them 4 hours to come back and take care of me!!) 7. She was going to wait 2 weeks to do her party 8 Then she realized 2 weeks was a long time, so she cried, and I made a few phone calls 9. I'm going to take her and 2 girlfriends to the mall, and to lunch. The libby lou I spoke of is a marketing genius - it is filled with glitter! and girlie girl stuff.. and HIGH PRICES! I will get the girls some nail polish and do manicures before lunch! 10 Time to wrap the presents! (dh and DS #1 are not home today! )}

1. What better way is there to spend a fall Sunday than watching football? 2. Don't make me answer that question. I can come up with a scenario involving HMT and some chocolate syrup and oh, never mind. 3. I'll miss some of the games as we are meeting at 2 p.m. to work on the Homecoming float. It is a gorgeous fall day and will be fun.

1. I admit I am not a good cook. My son and nephew can attest to that. Isn't the first step to admit your weakness? 2. But I made Rachel Ray's Tex Mex Chili last night and it actually turned out pretty good. The boy's ate it without setting it aside and asking for a PB & J instead! 3. The funny thing is, even though I'm not a good cook ... I love reading cook books. And have been collecting them for years. Every time I travel I pick up a cookbook from a local organization. Go figure?

1. I walked Herc about 10 this morning and took pictures of him at the cemetery--in all its autumn beauty. 2. The disposable Kodak I used promised a 1-hour turnaround on the pics AND the CD if taken to CVS, where I bought it. First time I've seen that. If I get my butt moving, I will try to get in and out of CVS today and post a few. 3. I ordered two lattes as my treat after walking Herc. (One hot and one iced.) I can never regulate my temp so often order one hot and one cold drink. My dh is used to me!! 4. I think the Aquaphor is working on my feet. I also put some on Herc's pads! (His little tootsies get so dry, I often put lotion on them. Unfortunately, he usually licks it all away.) 4.1 I am coping but STILL sick---the mess is still in my nose, and the infection that was in my throat has now settled into my larynx. I sound like a truck driver.

1. My daughter is coming home today after being in Charlotte, NC for the last four days. 2. I am excited to have her coming home. I miss her when she is gone. 3. She called me the other morning to tell me that she had just watched a movie on HBO called "Iron Jawed Angels" starring Hilary Swank. It's about the Women's suffrage movement. It made her cry and she told me that if I got a chance to see it that I definitely should. 4. I watched "Iron Jawed Angels" this morning. Daughter was right. Every woman should watch this movie. I don't know how any woman could see this movie and not feel the urge to go out and vote. I wish our young women all over this nation could see this movie. 5. I wonder what my daughter will think of my new red hat!

1. Vacanick, I'm like you in that I am not a good cook but I love to collect cookbooks!! I will say that I'm a better cook than Egbob! 2. Yesterday we attended our neice's wedding. It was lovely and we had a fun time! 3. I really enjoyed spending some time with my dd and ds#2. The best part was when Egbob took dd on the dance floor and then my ds came and got me. We were rocking out...LOL!! 4. I took tons of pictures and all this morning (about 4 hours at least), I've been editing the photos and emailing them to the relatives. It's a pure labor of love I tell ya!! 5. Today Egbob and I will be driving out to meet ds#2 and his new girlfriend (whom we haven't met yet). DD and her boyfriend will be joining us and we'll all go out to dinner...yay! 6. Happy Birthday to Reader's DD on her 8th Birthday!!

1. My washing machine hates me. I put clothes in it like I do every Sunday. Well today, it decides to spill tons of water out of it. 2. Now I have to get it fixed and use the public laundry room downstairs. 3. The laundry room scares me. It's dark and it smells like an attic. 4. I am trying to register for Spring classes, but for some reason, the school website won't let me. 5. Um...I'm running outta facts. 6. I just got home from the gym. Don't tell my brother, who paid for my membership, but it's only my fourth time going! LOL. 7. Afterwards, I went to the Cold Stone Creamery, which is conveniently located right next door to my gym. They have the best ice cream.

1. Just got to MY home from Gal's wedding, and visiting with my parents and brother and his kids. 2. Two of my koi fish are missing. So was the cat, but lo and behold she came and knocked on the front door and then played "hard to get". Ya know that you just have to punish "food lady" for going away for a day and a half. LOL! 3. I'm being evaluated tomorrow at work. I should make a handout. Or grade more papers. 4. Uno attack is a really fun game for a family with little kids. The 5 year old and 7 year old could handle it. It has a card holder that spits cards out at you....or maybe not! 5. I need to do laundry. Where is ketchuplover when you need him! LOL 6. I'm going up to DeKalb on Thursday night for a Friday presentation and accompanying a reading session on Saturday. Did you know that barbed wire was invented in DeKalb? 7. I was really happy that one of the pipe organs was partially installed in our new building on Friday. The builder left an hour before the open house began. I didn't even know that it was there until one of the organ grad students came running up to me...."The Ott's here, the Ott's here!" Well, you can play (kinda) on one of the manuals. I hope the builder comes back soon to finish it. It is a fantastic instrument. 8. The harpsichord will be moved to my office tomorrow or the next day. Things are looking up!

1. Only 9 facts this morning!! 2. I'm not in the best mood this morning. 3. Trying really hard to pretend. 4. Speaking of laundry, I spent most of yesterday doing it. 5. DH came home yesterday with motor oil all over one of his nice shirts. 6. 7. Didn't get to watch any of my football games yesterday. 8. Maybe if I just had a good cry I would feel better. 9. Have a happy Monday everyone!
