(this may be random. I'm simultaneously trying to type, monitor a media website, drink a bottle of water so I am hydrated for my lunch time date with the gym and nom, nom, nom on some crackers so that I don't pass out of starvation on my date. Apologies in advance)
1. This morning as I was frantically running around the house trying to iron clothes, find clothes, find hair clips (because, well, let us just say, SP slept in this morning) when I was greeted with the lovely opening bars to The Office. And then I about died laughing because The Today Show did a whole bit on our favorite little Pennsylvania town, Scranton. And how it's the political epicenter this year. And then I burst into hysterics because they kept showing clips of The Office. Needless to say, brightened my morning.
2. Friday night was interesting. I was supposed to go to a baby shower after work (yes, at 6 on a Friday. Sure), but, surprise, surprise, it was after 5:30 by the time I got in my car, went to start it up and heard "click, click, click". Oh the humanity!! My battery was dead. And, I had cars on either side of me, so, no one could jump me--so, husband was going to come pick me up, but, then we realized that cars get towed on Fridays before game day, so, I had to call the campus cops to give me a jump with their portable car jumper thing (yes, it's official name). And it was after 6 by the time my car finally started. The battery was 1 year old. Seriously.
3. Some of the YM came to the tailgate on Saturday and I think that the skank-tastic attire of many of the college girls traumatized them. It traumatized me too.
4. I am really nervous about Italiano tonight--I did not buy flashcards yet. Star student, I know.
5. Anyone else watch the Emmy's last night? Anyone else really, really disappointed in the Emmy's last night? It was kind of painful to watch--but, I kept watching because I wanted to see Best Comedy Series. Which I missed somehow. Which went to 30 Rock. Don't get me wrong, I like 30 Rock and all, and think when Jerry Seinfeld was on, it was hilarious, but, everyone is all so hot to trot on it right now, and you all know that I do not get on bandwagons. So, whatev. I just wanted to see Rainn Wilson rush the stage when they won. But whatever Academy, go have your love affair with Tina Fey. I'll be waiting...
6. I really need a mani pedi, but, running has done a number on my toes and I don't think anyone wants to see that. (sorry for the TMI)
7. And I really suck at painting my own nails.
8. BBF L is a published photographer! Her photos appear in many a publication done by my office. It's actually really cool.
9. Little sister is back from her 3 years in Hawaii and I'm not sure how she's adjusting. She has yet to decide if she's going to come see us or not. I think she should. Heck, we bought the dang house based on having a "Rachel Wing", and if it goes unused, I'm going to be sad.
10. Apparently, purple is the hot color. I'm wearing a purple sweater and was told how "in" I was like 3 times already. I accept the compliments because honestly, this is about as "in" as I ever get.
11. Passport came!! But, we realized my DL expires very soon--so, I need to go re-apply and get a new one. Problemo: what if the new one doesn't come before I leave in mid-late October? Then do I wait and risk missing the expiration deadline and then have to take the test?! Ack!! What should I do? Can I travel internationally is I just have my Passport? Or are they gonna need like 50 billion forms of ID? (it's been a while since I've been out of the country, folks) HELP!!
12. I need to get workin' on the book!! I've been so busy and let me tell you, when I get home, I am so drained that there is ZERO creativity left. Which is a bummer and a half. Boo!
13. I am currently searching the World Wide Web for a picture of my dear Jenna Fischer at the Emmys last night and cannot find one!!! And it's driving me mad. Because, really, I don't want to see another picture of Eva Longoria or Kate Walsh. No offense ladies, your mind numbingly beautiful, but, I wanted to see a what my dear JF was wearing and, most importantly, the hair.
14. This day is already killing me!
Hope you all had lovely weekends, mine was clearly, not restful enough, but, that's OK. Now, I better get movin'!

i love your randomness!!!! ha ha!!!!
and Rachel better go see you!
HA! This makes me laugh! The Office is this week! WOO HOO!!!
I was disappointed in the Emmy's last night too- I only watch for a bit, couldn't stand it too long.
I need a mani & pedi WAY bad too! And like you said, I'm no good at painting my own nails!
Can't wait to read more of your book! Maybe if you eat some more Autumn Mix the creative juices will come flowin!
I'm disappointed that I missed the Emmy's! I did catch some of "Fashion Police" on E this afternoon, but didn't see Jenna Fischer. I'll bet she was gorgeous, though.
And of course that thing is called a portable car jumper thing. What else would it be called? ;)
Purple, you say? Well, I trust you on this one (meaning: I'm off to find a purple sweater) and off to see if I can find Jenna's picture, I missed most of the dresses even though I watched the show. What's up with that? I went to the Emmys in 2004 you know. It was way cool. I had my photo taken with the Queer Eye guys.
SP-
Yeah and Tina Fey without glasses looks kinda lame-o don't you think?
I also el sucko at painting my own nails.
and purple is way in. I'm sure you looked very pretty in it.
I totally need a mani and a pedi and a haircut, and an eyebrow wax, and a....this list could get long.
Hope you get some downtime to relax and revitalize those brain cells. Hope Italian class went ok tonight too!
