I keep watching Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, even though I've sworn to stop. Granted, I miss it often when we're not home, but I see it often enough. And every single freaking time, it makes me cry. Not sobbing, but definitely teary-eyed, with the occasional lone tear escaping. Must. Stop. Watching.

I had a very relaxing, though totally non-productive morning. It was my first day off in months, excluding when I was sick and my birthday, in which I was NOT working in my parent's bathroom. After sleeping in, I got up made an omelet and some coffee and played on my computer for a few hours. It was very nice, and I got caught up on e-mail ( Read more... )

I'm up way too early, but I need much coffee for my regular Monday morning meeting. Yesterday was a good day. Val didn't freak when she saw her Cinderella swinging from the gallows, and it cracked me up all day long. Also, it rained which made me really happy as it washed some of the pollen from the air. I can breathe. Yay oxygen! I've grown ( Read more... )

For some reason the community relations manager at work thought it would be a good idea to bring her cardboard standee of Cinderella into the office.

I made it until about 2:00 a.m. before I crashed. Why doesn't my insomnia kick in when I want to stay up, dammit? The Democrats won the House by a very significant margin. We now have a larger majority than the Republicans did after the so called "republican revolution." It's a very good bet we're going to take the Senate as well. There are two ( Read more... )

Tonight there is a brand spanking new Republican family values hypocrite. Republican Representative Mark Foley of Florida resigned from Congress today after inappropriate e-mails he sent to a 16 year old male congressional page became public. What makes this more disgusting than the usual family values hypocrite? Foley was the chairman of the ( Read more... )
