Right Foot Forward

Had today off. LOVED IT. Had to go get POKED. That's what I call my Coumadin check--to make sure my blood isn't too thick or too thin, for my mitral valve. It's all routine now. I realized again, how blessed I've been to not have any set back from the little open heart work done in 2006. My scar does remind me--daily.

Had to get gas, twas only a buck 65. To think that's cheap. Planned to send my stuff to my Tax Guy. Forgot the envelope at home. Will do tomorrow. Popped me some corn, pet a cat, looked at the trash I need to put curbside, as time ticked to:

I only reality show with DWTS and American Idol. That's about all I can handle. Happiness will run through me until May. About the time Spring Fever really sets in and I wanna do other things on my weekday night. In the meantime...

I never was much of a Go Go's fan, but Belinda Carlise and I are same age and AARP membership invitees-so I'm not ready to see her Go Go. Football is my thing, yet Laurence Taylor didn't quite get a first down tonight. That guy from Jackass? What's his name again? Actually was impressed.

Plus gymnast and fellow Iowan, Shawn Johnson, was very good. And that Gilles guy--who is he? Sex in the City? Never saw the movie, because I never watched the show...sorry. Yummy he was. David Allan Grier was tough and tasty in that green tux. Impressive. The founder of Apple..bless him for stepping out there. Just vote for him because he tried and he's likable. And I don't know anything about rap, yet Lil Kim delivered. I only knew her from going to prison.

However, the dancer who impressed me most, was the jilted one: Melissa from The Bachelor. So very graceful and she knows ballet. Love me some ballet. Right now, she's got the better gig. I don't watch The Bachelor, and really didn't know who she was.

Sure, I left out other dancers tonight. There's a reason. They tried--yet the ones listed stood out for me! And Karina barely had enough doily to call what she had on a costume.

So we'll see what happens next Monday. In the meantime, gotta put out my trash, then try to cram in today's episode of the Young and the Restless: WHEN is Kay going to regain her memory??? And Sharon is being such a....well, when she turns up pregnant, which one of the 3 men will be the daddy? Stay tuned.

I'd be great in the waltz..1...2..3...Dance!

Monday Madness

You head out the door to your Pumpkin to drive to work. You really didn't want to go anyway, because you've been pretty much awake since 3:45 that morning. Due to having to make a potty run, and not quite falling back asleep. You ease closer to your Pumpkin and you see it. A flat. You call your boss to inform her you'll be at Shawshank as soon as you get someone to change it. You're usually a strong Chaka Khan I'm every kinda woman, however mechanics, of any kind, are your not your thing. This morning, you are a damsel in distress. You're just glad you're distressing in your drive way. Anyway, the second you hang up with your boss, the lights flicker and off goes your electricity. This is 7:45 am. You're afraid you missed the electric bill disconnect bill, when you're usually so good about. :) You realize your Pumpkin still has some warranty, so you call Road Side Assistance. You're told it would be 40 minutes. They lied. The guy didn't show until about 9:30ish--due to being with the last customer. He wasn't bad looking, so you overlook it. After her fixes your tire, he tells you three times however if you have any trouble, just give him a call. Maybe the guy was being nice. You get to work after a stop at 7-11 for a white cupcake cappuccino--you're kinda ticked because the pumpkin latte was replaced with french vanilla. So you get to work by 10:45. You know you should stay to make up time. You leave at your usual 4:30. Oh well. There's trash to put by the curb, salad to eat, cats to pet, Young and the Restless to watch because Lilly now knows Billy is Chloe's baby Daddy, and poor forgetful Mrs. C has been kidnapped, Jill thinks the DNA results she's told are true, and.....well, there's just things you need to do.

Cue up Chaka Khan.
