Happy 2012, Hopefully Without Doomsday and All

It’s the first day of the year and I’m trying to stay positive. We had a nice and very low-key New Year’s Eve celebration at home.  I’m always glad when an old year is over.  I’ve been really lucky.  Nothing terribly bad has ever come along and destroyed an entire 12 months for me.  Well, maybe once or twice, but mostly I’ve been very fortunate. What I’m disappointed in however is my tendency to stay mostly healthy for just about 364 days a year and… Continue reading

Those Crazy Samoans, Always a Step Ahead!

The people of Samoa skipped Friday this week AND got paid for it.  I don’t mean that they skipped work, I mean that they actually fell asleep Thursday and woke up Saturday, and not due to influenza.   There was no Friday!  Because they do more business with Australia and New Zealand than the US, they decided to ‘move’ to the other side of the international date line in order to have two more full business days for their larger client base.  Business savvy!  And… Continue reading

Two Things

Before I fell asleep, I remembered two things that gave me ha-has and I felt the need to share them with you.  One’s old, one’s newer. Rob Delaney’s letter to Katy Perry Crazy kicking dance girl meme Both are worth your clicks.  I remember us impersonating the kicking girl at our college cafeteria the one time.  None of us could get it right.  Can YOU? Time for late morning coffee. Share the post “Two Things” FacebookPinterestShare…Email Continue reading

The Exercism

It is strangely motivating to have a computerized voice tell you you’re doing a great job, or that your back is tilting too much toward the floor. Wii Fit Plus, you are a great gift. I am going to have posture one day, for at least a week. I have the body of a 39 year old, which is a great surprise since I feel at least 47. Time to remedy that.

Gangster

I am the kind of person who calls her work and then hangs up just to find out who’s there.  Well, today.  Our schedules this December have been, to put it mildly, straight-up trippin’ y’all! And to put it normally, “a little all over the place”, so I called this morning in fear that I was actually supposed to already be there.  When I called, it wasn’t (a) me, or (b) no one who answered, but rather (c) someone else.  What a relief.  I could… Continue reading

Christmas is OVER!

I hope everyone had a very merry Christmas!  The past two days have been wonderfully packed with family, food, Christmas music and my gent,  which kind of ruled.  And it’s nice to enjoy a full day off once a year without a trip to Walmart. Now everything can slow back down and sweet reality can set on in once more.  A few more days and 2011’s over.  I found myself so ahead of the game this year with everything (excluding wedding planning, yeek).  Did you?… Continue reading
