May 1, 2006--Are these few and far between or WHAT?

1. I'm thirsty. But again, the ice machine is ALL THE WAY downstairs. I think this is done because someone hates me. However, word on the street is that the conference room now has filtered tap water. Does this take the place of ice, though? Of course not. Don't be silly.
2. So I'm feeling guilty. I was dropping The Jack off this morning and a cell phone went flying off the hood of someone's car. I felt like I should retrieve it and then call someone to tell them that the owner lost his cell phone. However, it was in the middle of a VERY busy intersection which would have required my pulling over, leaving baby in the car to run into the middle of an intersection and retrieve said ill-fated cell phone. Okay friends. David Copperfield I am not. So here I am feeling guilty because I saw it flying and didn't do anything about it. It is now probably crushed to bits and some poor fern is wondering what on earth he did with his cell phone. Dang it!
3. I think I'm going to learn Spanish. It's a long story.
4. Sorry P5 has been a bit absent lately. I know how you all yearn to see that the date has changed on this here blog and the disappointment you must feel when it doesn't has to be really overwhelming. If you need a hug, I will be available M-F from 8AM-5PM. Sickos and Pervs need not apply.
5. I have a new view on what Hell would be like: being in a store where you have a gift certificate to get anything you want, and yet you don't want anything. How frustrating is THAT??
6. Yesterday, I met a child named Nedy Anne. Who is a boy. That takes hating your child to a whole new level, don't you think?
7. If you ever think it would be fun to make a quilt, poke your eyes out. If you don't and decide to make the quilt, you'll end up wanting to do it anyway. I'm just saving you $200 by telling you now to leave out the middle man. Or quilt. Whichever the case may be.
8. Someone just came around the corner and said to me "ho ho ho!" Since it's nowhere near Christmas, can I assume he was calling me names?
9. The Boy got the internship. 5 laps on the imaginary stick pony, everyone!
10. Until I moved to this fine state (and by "fine" I mean "annoying") I had never even seen a Dutch oven. They're everywhere here. Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti-Dutch oven. I'm just saying. P.S. Is this whole notion truly Netherlands-inspired?? Because having lived in Europe, I can't see it. I have received the Death Glare for simply walking while eating a chicken sandwich because I was so rude and barbaric. I can't imagine a Euro digging their oven out of the ground and enjoying some BBQ Beef...but that's just me.
