1. Anxious about this weekend - we're at T-minus 4 days and counting. Things are getting done, but at a slower pace than last year. I was frantic last year, and to be quite honest, this year I'm considerably more mellow. Two of the three guild members that are coming to the party this year were here last year, and they know what kind of housekeeper I am, and how much effort goes into even the most minor cleanup of my house; the kind of cleaning I have to do for this party is exponentially higher. If it ain't perfect, they'll understand.
2. This:
Pat Monahan - Her Eyes lyrics
She's not afraid; she just likes to use her night light
When she gets paid, true religion gets it all
If they fit right.
She's a little bit manic, completely organic
Doesn't panic for the most part.
She's old enough to know, and young enough not to say no
To any chance that she gets for home plate tickets to see the Mets.
Like everybody, she's in over her head,
Dreads Feds, Grateful Dead, and doesn't take meds.
She's a Gemini Capricorn
Thinks all men are addicted to porn.
I don't agree with her half the time,
But, damn I'm glad she's mine.
Her eyes, that's where hope lies.
That's where blue skies
Meet the sunrise.
Her eyes, that's where I go
When I go home.
She got the kinda strength that every man wishes he had.
She loved Michael Jackson up until he made Bad.
Tells me that she lives about a hundred lives,
Scares me to death when she thinks and drives,
Says cowboy hats make her look fat,
and I'm so glad she's mine.
Her eyes, that's where hope lies.
That's where blue skies
Meet the sunrise.
Her eyes, that's where I go
When I go home.
She doesn't know the word 'impossible'
Don't care where I've been and doesn't care where we're goin' to.
She takes me as I am, and that ain't easy.
She's beautiful. So beautiful.
And sometimes I think she's truly crazy.
And I love it.
Her eyes, that's where hope lies.
That's where blue skies
Always meet the sunrise.
Her eyes, that's where I go
When I go home.
Her eyes, that's where hope lies.
That's where blue skies
Always meet the sunrise.
Her eyes, that's where I go
When I go home.
She's not afraid
she just likes to use her night light.
Song lyrics | Her Eyes lyrics
is how I want my man to think of me. Imperfect, but perfect for him - and that's all that matters.
3. I'm totally not a girly-girl, and you have no idea how much effort on my part it takes to slather on the makeup and curl the hair every day for work. I suppose I could just go au natural, but I like to at least look like I'm trying when my co-worker/boss (who is a friend of mine from way back) is a beautiful glamor girl.
4. I really like Walmart.com's custom CD service. It rocks for people like me who would totally buy and download single songs if I had a halfway decent internet connection, but it's a more-than-reasonable substitute.
Well, that's it. Just a few life observations.
