Can I call in “tired” to work - cuz I just cannot function like a normal human today. I don’t know why I’m so tired, but I’m pretty sure I could sleep all day if it came down to it.

Ok - let me preface this by saying I am not an American Idol fan. But I do read the gossip blogs, and I do listen to talk radio, so I generally have some idea of what’s going on with it.
After seeing clips and pics from the season finale, I have decided i need to be Clay Aiken’s new agent.
I have the perfect concept for launching his post-Idol broadway career.
He will be the next Victor/Victoria.
Now wait, I know what you’re thinking. The premise behind Victor/Victoria is a woman pretentding to be a man portraying a woman. But wouldn’t it even be that much better for a man(boy) to act as woman pretending to be a man portraying a woman? It’s perfect!!!! Clay looks so fem in men’s clothing, how much more fabu could you get!!!!
And before you go congratulating me on my sheer genius I must confess to being somewhat inspired by Alley Sheedy’s performance as Hedwig - a woman portraying a man pretending to be a woman.

My GAWD I am a genius.

CLAY - get your people on the phone with my people. ASAP!

Lost - must discuss finale.

No one here watches it.

Demi and Khuul are AWOL so I cant’ discuss with them. Has anyone else out there watched the finale? Does anyone else feel both over and under whelemed? I feel like a whole lot happened but that the only questions answered led to even more questions.

Where’s Locke? Why isn’t Charlie looking for him and Eko!? Why are they so blase about the big boom?

Ok - so I’m about 3 episodes behind on my Lost episodes. So please don’t spoil me. I’m kinda wanting to catch up to night on my lost so I can watch the 2 hr finale, but I’m behind on homework.

But, on Jagger (with Mondo after 10pm) they were talking about Lost and all the theories. For one thing, if you watch the commercials (as opposed to DVRing and skipping the commercials like I do) you would see commercials for The Hanso Foundation. There is also a “game” you can play which is a bit of a scavenger hunt through the web at The Lost Experience.
I feel so behind. I’m afraid this may consume the rest of my day. Or week.

So, as tends to happen when households are combined, phlome and I have a lot of crap. This weekend I’m going to try and get rid of some of the crap by convincing some Mexicans that it’s not crap. I only say Mexican’s because that’s probably mostly who will show up to my garage sale this weekend. I’m thinking maybe I should post my garage sale signs in English and Spanish. Except I don’t speak enough Spanish, and a bilingual sign might imply that I do.

So, if you’re in the area this weekend, and have some crap you want to pawn off, or want to come buy some of my GREAT AND VERY USEFUL household items and knick knacks, please feel free to stop by sometime Saturday morning. It’ll go fast - I’m sure of it, so you want to come over early Saturday. (also I’d really like to get rid of as much as possible so I can with a clear conscience junk or donate the rest).

The top items on the to be gotten rid of list:
12 ft conf table (you haul it you can take it)
small dinner table w/ 2chair and a 2-person bench ($25 obo)
Assorted corning ware
assorted cooking utensils
assorted bake ware
misc. books
mis. glassware
bread maker
purple blender
toaster

There are rumors that some folks will be bringing other stuff over to be gotten rid of. Mind you, if you bring it, and it doesn’t sell, you have to come get it too. Or at least help haul it off. Our garbage/recycle service does not haul off furniture.

This is a rather nifty website with a lot of useful info: KidsHealth.

I know it says it’s for kids, but it’s got some useful info. Even some about adenoids, if you were curious.
It’s amazing the pain, discomfort, and hardships young children have to endure that leads to their adenoidectomy. Hopefully most of them would be young enough to not remember most of it.

Anyway - I wish I’d had something like this when I was a kid. I could get lots of answer to questions I wound’t have asked, or known who to ask.

Why must bad things come in 3s?

As of today 3 people I know have gotten bad job related news - 2 lost positions that had looked to be at least semi long term, and 1 found out he didn’t get the one he wanted.

All the honeymoon photos have been uploaded.

Take a peek

That my mom is a NUT!

Below is an email I got from my mom this morning.

I work with Diane XXX, her sister Daphine XXX lives in Allen, TX. Diane would like for you to call her if you have time and meet her to pickup a pant suit.

Daphine XXX 214 xxx xxxx
Home Address
Allen, Tx

I gave Diane your telephone number to give to Daphine in case you have time to meet. If you don’t have time that is okay. Just call Daphine when you leave and let her know that you will or will not be able to meet her.

Thanks
Sherry

And I’ve already received a voicemail from Daphne thanking me for volunteering to pick up the pant suit.

WTF!!! I did not agree to this!
I do not know these people.

Yes - Monday night Barley and Luna were wrestling and coming straight for me - all of his weight and part of her’s (via his head) landed right below my knee. It felt like my knee either tried to bend backwards or that my shin tried to go w/out my knee. Either way it hurt like a biatch. The pain eased, but I noticed yesterday it hurts when I go down stairs. It’ll probably be sore for a few days - but I’ll live.

Ladies, how ofted do you get hit on by MaryKay ladies? I do about once a year. Twice by the same lady at the same bagel place. Yesterday it was by a small asian girl at Target. Something about me evidently makes them want to talk to me and convince me to join their leadership program.
I’m far more intrigued this time than I was last time. Mainly because it was a girl about my age as opposed to a woman my grandmother’s age. I think next time someone comes up to me and randomly comments on my professional attire - I’ll just say, “you must be from Mary Kay.”
I think this time I may actually try to find out what their leadership program is…if it doesnt’ involve selling make-up maybe I’ll listen.
