Memories…

I’m at work for the 15th frickin day in a row it seems. On a Saturday. But heaven be blessed, after today I’m finally DONE making up the time I lost over the stupid snowstorm.
I didn’t make it in at 7am every day, but enough days this week to whittle away at the lost [...]

Thank heaven for little girls…

I probably should’ve made the title of this post more of a tease, but I’m too damn excited to come up with anything witty and suspenseful.
We are having a baby girl in June. Unbelievable.
So I’ll start from the beginning.
 
I had an ultrasound on my stomach this time, which was much more pleasant [...]

LOSE MY NUMBER!

I can’t STAND telemarketers. I mean, I REALLY can’t stand them.  Who thought annoying people and blowing their phones up in the middle of a work day would convince them to buy something? I don’t get the logic.
 
A couple Christmases ago, I’d decided Mikey and I needed more “culture” in our lives, so I bought [...]

Apprehension

I had a dream last night that I had the baby and brought it home. I kept forgetting about her (in my dream it was a girl, but that’s neither here nor there, I’m not putting too much stock in that.)
Anyway, I kept getting sidetracked by all this stupid stuff, and then I would [...]

Revisiting the Classics

I don’t think enough people in this world truly appreciate great literature for what it is anymore. It’s actually really sad to me.  In a world where retarded reality shows, violent video games, and stupid celebrity obsessions rule, I decided to make it my business to pay homage to timeless literature.
 
Instead of flipping through [...]

New Year’s Resolutions… Better Late than Never

I’m not sure about the etiquette of New Year’s resolutions, whether you’re supposed to keep them to yourself or what, but I don’t care; I’m going to list them here anyway. I think if I let the world know my year’s intentions, it will keep me motivated, plus it’s nice to have a list to [...]

Subs are the Subject of this Post.

So I had a voracious appetite for anything Mexican for the first couple of months. That ended abruptly, followed by a brief love affair with Lucky Charms. I could still eat a bowl a day for breakfast, of course, but the hot new thing on the street is subs.
 
This gets a little tricky, since [...]

MERCY

I pride myself on my spotless driving record. I’ve never gotten a ticket. I try not to speed, I’ve never driven drunk, and I obey the traffic laws. My morning routine is usually a little crazy, but otherwise I like to think of myself as a pretty good driver.
 
This morning I’m driving to work, semi-erratically [...]

I think I’m over myself.

Okay. Now that I got my rant out of the way, I’ve figured out what I need to do. In order to make up the lost overtime without actually losing the hours I put in, I need to work from 7am to 6pm every day until next Thursday.
Can I actually do that? The champion supersleeper? [...]

I really hate snow today.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m a fall and winter girl. I love Colorado, which is famous for it’s snow, and I love Nordic-print sweaters and fuzzy boots and downhill skiing. In fact, I cannot wait for our annual ski trip coming up. (Unfortunately I won’t be skiing, but I’ll still be hanging out with the [...]
