weak-end

another weekend over and a new week just begun.... I just received an email telling me that as tomorrow is Halloween that our office must dress up like consultants..... that means no jeans, but can i still wear my black top with orange vest? i have been looking forward to that all month.

Bill and I went to look as houses again this weekend. the weather was nice, and it is a good idea to see these neighborhoods before they are buried underneath snow. (which is how they will be in January and February when we are really looking.)

We saw Marie Antoinette on Saturday. I liked it... not sure if i liked it as much as virgin suicides, but it was very neat... and I have decided i want her shoes, all of them.... so many cool shoes :)

I have decided that will be probably the only thing that stops our gadget spending.

ugly betty and other tv musings

I am really lovin this show. expecially since her super adorable nephew visited... yesterday's episode was great except for the end... that walter character is awful.

anyway i think i have found replacements for the shows i have los along the way, and now thanks to abc family i have everwood every night. ... now if only i could get them out of the dvdr and onto a dvd.

SNOW!!!!!

There is a cloud of white puffy things floating outside my window just at this second. Little happy flurries whose whole existance is to make life difficult.

BALLS.

an athlete i am not...

...but i did play with a basket ball tonight. notice i didn't say I played basketball, because panting on the court and heaving balls towards the net isn't considered "playing"

and if anyone else is laughing at the combination of play, balls and panting, congrats you are four... just like me.

back

so I am back from SF and in one piece. I have decided I don't like long flights and that business travel stinks.

apparently google/blogger regret to inform me that i can only post comments on other beta blogs as they are still working on the backwards working interface. I would have hoped that they could have fixed that before conning me into upgrading. and it's not like they warn you about that before you switch or that you can go back once switched.

but enough about me. how are you doing my faitful readers? are you being bogged down but the depression of colder weather, work, and fatigue that seems to be going around?

maybe if i am not too busy with grey's and betty tonight i might post a picture or two from my brief trip into san fran from oakland where we were working/staying.

ding ding ding...

goes the trolley...

I am headed to SF, CA for the next few days for work. I have never been to CA and never seen the Pacific coast. Let's hope I might be able to see more of CA than its airport. I am also testing the new "relaxed rules" today. I have my 1 qt clear baggie stuffed with makeup and toiletries. lucky for me I am not craving pudding, or trying to take my gummy Flintsone vitamins, however if i want to cut or stab things you can take on board small pointy scissors and small tools like screw drivers.
