Don't Titilate Me!

The best thing about the Olympic Opening Ceremonies last night?
The teaser for season 5 of "The Office". Love that Slap Face!
Oh yeah, and if you like stoner movies go check out "Pineapple Express". Went and saw it at lunch yesterday. Five Stars!

Reflections On the Past Week

This has been a very interesting week for me. Just some random thoughts and musings.

1. I think I am developing OCD when it comes to my lawn. I have a couple of spots in my yard that the sprinklers don't quite cover. At night I go out with the hose and water my little friends (blades of grass) to make sure they get fed. I almost end up hand-watering (I won't tell you what kind of 'job' I tell Barb I am giving it) the whole yard. I now mow the front lawn twice a week and the backyard once a week. I cringe when I see the lawn right before I mow it. I don't want my neighbors to think I am raising a hippie yard.
2. I have recently re-discovered the joys of Progressive Rock. No longer a relic of the 70's-with new bands like The Mars Volta and Coheed and Cambria, progressive rock is continuing to give me chills that run up and down my back. I have also rediscovered how much I still like Heavy Metal-sorry Mom.
3. Whe does a woman get a month off for a hysterectomy, but if I go in for a vasectomy I need to be into work the next day? I understand the shock that a woman goes through of having a part of her body removed, but the possibility of a man touching my money-maker makes me shudder-and not with excitement.
4. Ethan is becoming quite the little hitter. I recently bought a wiffle-ball set and have been throwing balls to him. He is building up some hand-eye coordination and hitting the ball real well.
5. The other night Mason was real fussy and wouldn't calm down. We were watchng the Colbert Report and they had Rush on as a special guest. As soon as they started playing "Tom Sawyer" Mason calmed down and was transfixed. Yeah!!! I DVR'd it and play it back for him. He also loves listening/watching Guitar Hero. Hopefully he'll be my little rocker!
6. Yes! Ralph Nader is on the ballot in Utah. Now my choice won't be limited to a Grumpy Old White Man or a Black Celebutante. Neither appeals to me. Go Ralph!
