- I am dangerously low on coffee right now - good thing I have nothing to do at work and will have nothing to do for the remainder of the day.
- One of my very favorite songs is playing right now - What's been going on by Amos Lee. I have it at a decently high decibel, so I just closed the door to the cave.
- I am so SO sick of Twilight. I do not read the books, I have not seen the movies and I do not think Robert Pattinson is attractive. Is this craze over yet? This is worse than when a new Harry Potter movie comes out.
- Mike and I are having an extended test drive of the Cube today. I am hoping it convinces him that this is, indeed, the car for us and I won't have to test drive a bunch of grandma cars to appease him. He actually said the word 'Buick' to me and meant it!
- I am headed up to Minn this Sunday and will spend the week helping my sister and brother-in-law get their house ready to be sold. I'm excited to spend some time in the motherland, though Rock said she had to scrape her windshield today, and I am not so excited for that. Turns out I've acclimated to the slightly warmer temperatures IL has to offer and have subsequently turned into a pansy.
- We had a "Friendship Thanksgiving" hosted by Jon and Janet this week and it was fantastic! I can't wait for Jon to prepare many more turkeys, because as he put it, "turkeys are dirt cheap."
- If you do not already, you should be watching MadMen. It is fantastic. I have watched it out of sequential order and I still enjoy it. It is amazing (for better and for worse) how far we've come in the last 50 years. I suppose 50 years is a significant amount of time, and yet, seems not so long ago considering the way women were treated. Joan, the head secretary, said this when training one of the new secretaries, "And here is your typewriter. The men who designed it made it so easy, even a woman can use it." Sitting in my own office, typing this on my own computer, it is not lost on me the sacrifices and accomplishments of generations of women.
cheers!

I rolled my eyes 3 times. Have a good thanksgiving Chels!
So, someone made your computer so easy even a woman can use it? Jokes. Still internet friends?
you would, matty.
10 - i almost made that joke myself, still internet friends.
Chelsey. Read the Harry Potter books! We have had this discussion before. You will like them. Trust me. If nothing else, it will at least temper your hatred for the Potter hype when a new movie comes out.
can't break my streak, jimmy. you, if anyone, should understand that.
I'm so glad men made computers easy enough for us (ladies) to use.
Good luck on your car hunt! And have fun in Minn!
Did hammen really tell you to read harry potter, what a homo.
