What the hell?? It couldn&#8217;t have been more than 10 minutes ago I was happily driving home from work, thinking &#8220;YAY this is the weekend that will last 20 years instead of 30 seconds! I will write the Great American Novel, lose 50 pounds and clean my house from top to bottom this weekend!&#8221; Even though we gained an hour the weekend is still far too short.<\/p>\n<p>On another note, I&#8217;ve been meaning to thank whomever I inherited my nose from. Gene and I were watching The Voice a couple of weeks ago and I told him &#8220;I may be fat* but I was born with a perfect nose&#8221; because two of the contestants had schnozes that made them look like Beavis. Tragic. I can think of three things immediately that I&#8217;d get corrected (were a plastic surgeon offering free services) but my nose is perfect. A friend once told me my nose was a little snout-ish and I almost hit her.<\/p>\n<p>Because you care, the shoes from Ross are terrible but the purse is awesome. And the wineglasses are effective vessels for getting wine into my winehole. The message is clear: Just buy the damned Danskos you moron.<\/p>\n<p>You didn&#8217;t hear this from me, but the word on the street is that the Twilight movies are only 99 cents each on Amazon Instant Video**. Betty and Sadie, both of whom sat through the first one, agree that that is at least 99 cents too much.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of videos, I just watched a video on a fashion blog about curling and styling your hair (well, my hair) (well, the blogger&#8217;s hair). Maybe someday I will do my hair everyday, but my basic reaction to the video was to try to figure out if this woman has a day job or if she&#8217;s managed to monetize owning a curling iron.<\/p>\n<p>In exciting medical news, I really think most of my crazy has been re-eradicated by actually taking my anti-crazy pills. Better living through science! Also, I got the all clear on the mammogram. Also also, I can&#8217;t wait for Ambien O&#8217;Clock because I have a cartful of stuff again at Sephora and I can&#8217;t figure out how to explain to Gene that I need more perfume rollerballs. Presenting it as a fait accompli is a ton easier.<\/p>\n<p>(Or maybe I can convince Betty to walk on the laptop keys in the right order later when she&#8217;s watching the next Twilight movie).<\/p>\n<p>Can you believe that 4 years ago today I was in Malaysia? Yes I&#8217;m still talking about that because it&#8217;s been 4 years since I&#8217;ve done anything even slightly interesting. I just checked the archives (LOSER!) and 4 years ago today was the day I took a cab all by myself to Petronas and went to the observation tower.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I&#8217;m OK, I hope you are too.<\/p>\n<p>*Seriously, I tell all my skinny coworkers that if they woke up with my body they&#8217;d throw themselves bodily onto the highway. I&#8217;m a little worried I look like Honey Boo Boo&#8217;s mom, which is a unique worry considering we don&#8217;t have cable.<\/p>\n<p>**Gah, I hope they&#8217;re all still only $.99. I want to watch them all like the other girls (much like Pinnochio I want to be a real girl!) but I&#8217;ll be damned if I&#8217;m going to pay much for the experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OMG, it&#8217;s Sunday night already.
