The Arms

So I saw ultrasound pictures of Kari and LJ's future offspring today for the first time. Does anyone else see this kid doing the arms? It's like, "woo-hoo, first grandchild!"

To wit:

I vote for a restart

Just to get it out there: this week sucks! Has anyone else noticed?? Today at work everything that could have gone wrong did. We spent the entire day fixing a major issue from yesterday so we didn't even have time to deal with current business from today. We got more calls this morning about the problem than we've had in the entire past two weeks. It's like someone decided to make this psychotic Wednesday. I was under the impression that the middle of the week was supposed to be the hump heading toward the good part of the week but at the rate we've been going I don't want to know what Thursday and Friday are going to bring...

OOOOOOOO-klahoma!

Here's an idea I've been kicking around in the old noggin. What interest would there be in a fremamily trip to Discoveryland one weekend to see Oklahoma under the stars? There are shows every Saturday night until the end of August. We're booked until the end of June, but is there a weekend in July or August that might work in general?

Ticket and direction information available here.

The Hills

I feel like total nerd admitting that I watch The Hills but I do. And I love it. I even get emotional watching the touching parts like when Whitney just fell down on her GMA debut. Oh snap that would be embarrassing. Other embarrassing shows I have watched tonight include: Dancing with the Stars...umm ok that was about it but geez that wasn't very cool. Anybody else have any shows they want to admit to?? I kind of need a boost on my TV watching...

Kari, I've found your belated birthday gift!

Yay Mom! YAAAAAAAY!

Happy birthday to Mom, who turns "30" today! Hope it turns out to be wonderful!

Just for general interest, you share your birthday with such luminaries as Reese Witherspoon and William Shatner, and such less lumnaries as the mime Marcel Marceau and Senator Orrin Hatch of Utah.

Yay for birthdays!

Work Butt

Ok something I've been contemplating over the past few days. Even if your boss seems really nice and is super fun to work with, if she creates a personalized candy drawer for you...she's only doing it for a few reasons. Here are some that I came up with: 1) she wants to make/keep you fatter than her to make you look like the new slob at work, 2) she wants to make/keep you fat and happy so you are tricked into thinking the job is more fun than it is, 3) she just likes to laugh at what little willpower you have against the evil dark chocolate lurking in your top desk drawer. I just joined Curves and had my first workout today, so I resolve that first thing tomorrow I am giving the candy back. I will not be suckered into being one of those ladies whose buns exactly fit between the arms on her desk chair. By the way, if anybody likes dark chocolate and Snickers the new Dark Snickers is really awesome. I have three of them in my candy drawer if anyone wants me to save one for them.
