My cup runneth over*
*Is it strange that this phrase always makes me think of Kenneth Starr?
BOY do I have a lot to tell you guys today. I've sort of been saving it up until I had the time and energy to write about all of it.
Observations/occurences/ramblings:
BOY do I have a lot to tell you guys today. I've sort of been saving it up until I had the time and energy to write about all of it.
Observations/occurences/ramblings:
- I have some really cool English relatives. Two of them run a bed and breakfast in a MEDIEVAL house (built in 1400). Do you have ANY idea how cool that is? It helps to know that I was obssessed with all things medieval for a large portion of my childhood.
- I am now hooked on Sudoku (number puzzles, if you haven't already been caught up in the wave of enthusiasm).
- My aunt gave me $100 for "gas money" even though my other aunt had already filled up my tank. Wheeee.
- 60 years is a really long time to be married. It's a really REALLY long time to stay in love.
- Champagne and chambord make a really good, if somewhat expensive and very girly, drink.
- Nothing beats hanging out in your pajamas in the hotel room till 1 in the morning talking and drinking wine out of plastic cups.
- My uncle had my cousin's husband fix my car (you know how it was making that squealing noise? GONE.) Also got brand new tires. For free. And I was so grateful I actually managed to send thank-you-notes. Yay me!
- I have a seriously dysfunctional family (but we already knew that).
- Toddlers are cute in small quantities, but I don't know that I'd want to live with one.
- Route 58 is incredibly boring.
- It looks like I'm going to be staying on a schedule where I get up in the a.m. and go to bed by 1 or so. It seems that six days in a row of getting up early have done the trick.
- Going in at 9 a.m. isn't so bad if you go to bed at a reasonable hour.
- I like watching poker on TV.
- My entire extended family cares about me/would probably spoil me a bit if given the chance. Who knew?
- I got a phone call from someone I used to work with who I hadn't heard from in about seven months. I'd pretty much given up hope, and then BAM! I came home from work last night and found a message from her on my voicemail. I'm planning on calling her as soon as I get offline.
- Styling wax is awesome.
- The Republicans need to stop calling me, or somebody's going to get hurt.
- I really hate it when people who clearly don't understand the concept of meter try to write rhyming poetry. If you don't know what you're doing, just stick with free verse, okay? Thanks.
- I find it highly amusing that the standard cloth size quilters use is called a "fat quarter."
- If I am in the company of people with English accents, I start to sound English myself.
- I hate organic root beer.
- I had a really good vacation. I feel relaxed and accomplished and relieved all at once *grin*

I LOVE champagne and chambord! You sound positively perky. Care to send some of that enthusiasm this way?
