Gene has the flu. Doctor Hottie gave him a prescription for Tamiflu. And one for me, too, to take “just in case”. Oh please. Pleaseplease do not let me get sick like Gene. Seriously. If I get sick like Gene is sick (as in down for the count sick), I suspect we’ll just have to…
Category: Really Deep Thoughts
But first, a movie review…
So Gene and I have now seen all of the Best Picture nominees this year with the exception of Atonement (I’m trying – and failing – to finish the book first). Last night we went with our Athiest Friends (it’s 1 couple, not like there’s a club or something) to see There Will Be Blood….
Everday is like Sunday
Especially today, as today IS Sunday. Hilariously, we ended up watching the halftime show (Tom Petty?? Really??) and the second half of the Super Bowl. I don’t know why. I guess that Gene’s judgement is broken right now. I really really really do not want to go to work tomorrow. I have two days of…
Hi, Hi
Nothing new here in Cheesecake City. Was I the only person who thought that the Super Bowl was LAST Sunday? I thought it was always in January. Anyway, Gene and I have different plans for Super Bowl Sunday: Elaine: Geeking, listening to Sirius 22 Gene: Laying (or lying, whatever) in bed, begging for yummies from…
ick ick ICKY
So I’m doing laundry. It’s what I do on Sundays. (Yes, it is magical). I heard a loose coin inside my washing machine so I went to fish it out while bracing one hand on the agitator. The top part of the agitator came off (the fabric softener part) and ACK it was covered in…
Have onesie, will travel…
Guess who I get to meet in February? If you guessed Gene’s best friend’s little boy, you guessed right! YES. Their Christmas present to us was to get us up to MD to visit and meet the baaaaaaby. (This is what two boxes full o’ Gymboree goodies get you – plus I just ordered a…
hummm….
Are laptops no longer made in silver? I’m cruising Dell’s website and they make ’em in pink, yellow, red, etc and standard black. Hmm. I figured silver was eternal. Gene’s new fancy pants computer is silver but freaking glows red – creepy.
Dubya-Twos
Hooray! My employer’s W-2 forms are in the mail, in the FedEx, or otherwise distributed. All 4000+ of them. YESSSS. That said, here are some of the annoying things about this time of year: 1) They are called W-2s, NOT W-4, not tax returns. Duuuuuubbbbbya-Twwwwwoooooos. 2) If you are a 30 year old man, do…
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday the Boooooy! Happy Birthday to you! (He’s 14 now).
Saw Juno today
You’ll never guess what movie Gene and I saw today. Oh, wait, you read the title of this post… So yeah, we saw it and loooved it. Accidentally (or maybe intentionally), the captions were on the entire time, so I got to read the movie while I watched it. I love to do that. It…
