random thoughts...

instead of trying to make any sort of sense, i'll just post some erratic thoughts:

1- i've got a case of the Mondays, even though i reckon i might get my ass kicked for sayin' somethin' like that...(quoting the hick neighbor, Lawrence from Office Space)

2- why does every crime/cop show on tv have an episode where someone gets buried alive?  and why is Ryan Reynolds about to be in a movie where this is the entire premise?  what is the fascination with this?  i don't get it.

3- i find out this Friday if i made it into the Deluxe OK show.  if i didn't make it, prepare for a trunk show of my bags and goods.  i mean "trunk show" literally - Taryn and i are going to sell bags and pillows out of our cars in the parking lot if that's what it takes! 

4- last night's post could have been much more interesting and well written if i had just turned off the tv.  blasted thing has too much power over me!

5- i remembered a few things about my NY trip:  while having a late lunch, we saw Chris March (the plus-size drag queen from Project Runway a few seasons ago).  it wasn't quite as exciting as seeing Uma Thurman in Central Park on a Sunday morning 10 years ago, and having her look at KD and i and laugh (and/or scoff) because we were obviously still in our clothes from the night before...but it was still a celebrity sighting.  secondly, on my flight from NYC to Houston i believe i saw Santa Clause - he is a flight attendant for Continental.  seriously.  old man- slight belly- big white beard.  he was not jolly though - i don't think he was happy about having to pick up a second job.
 
6- i am giving up tanning beds once again.  once and for all, i should say.  i was a "tanorexic" (what a silly word) many years ago, and reached an unnatural state of brown for my normally fair skin.  then i wised up and quit for about 5 years.  aaaaand, then i got started again.  it really is addicting!  it's like 15 minutes of heaven.  okay, that's an overstatement...but it is like 15 minutes of sweaty zen.  anyway, i haven't tanned in about 4 months...not sure why i skipped doing it in the summer?  eh, the point is the membership i've been paying for finally ran out this month!  and i have finally learned my lesson and will not go back.  my skin thanks you mom and Ang!  your scowls and eye rolls at the slightest appearance of a tan may have well saved my hide! 

that's all, folks!
