RANDOM THOUGHTS

I have tomorrow (actually today already) off. I am going to sleep until I get up. No alarm clocks and hopefully, no phone calls either! I have some errands to run, but mostly the day is mine.
I have to make the much dreaded trip to the DMV, time to renew my registration. It really isn't too bad, since the one by me is usually pretty quick and the people are always pleasant and move quickly. At least I don't have to renew my license so I don't have to fret over getting photographed!
I am thinking of looking for another dress for the Bar Mitzvah. I bought one and I had big dreams of losing a few pounds. Yeah right. It is so tight that it is not very comfy. It is also rather short for the shoes I have, so that is another issue by itself.
I want to go to my paper store. I need just the right card stock to make the card I have in my brain for Ben's Bar Mitzvah. I seem to talk about that a lot. It is a very special and momentous occassion. Those of you who know me, know why. Those of you who don't, well, for now I will suffice it to say that Ben is a miracle. He, and his family, have overcome the most unbelievable event in a childs life. In anyones life. It is rather ironic that this birthday celebration holds such roots in Judiasm, and it was the fact that Ben is Jewish that the horrible day and succession of events took place.
Three weeks from this past Tuesday, I have to go to Chicago for our Manager's Fall kick-off meeting. I am excited to meet my co-horts from across the nation. I am also a bit nervous. I will also meet all of the "suits" in the company! In the past, I have been the seasoned and "go to" manager, now I am the new kid on the block. It is kind of hard to get accustomed to. I leave from the meetings and fly right out to L.A for the big event!
I need a haircut and a dye job! My hairdresser left and I am such a baby about trying new ones. I have been trimming it myself, and doing a pretty good job, if I must say so myself! But I really need a professional to do me up. I have quite a collection of colors at this moment and grey is not one I am all that fond of. I need help here!
I am toying with the idea of getting acrylics again. I hate what they end up doing to my nails, but I am having an awful time with them lately. Chipping and splitting. Such monumental decisions I have to make!
I am shocked that Jerry Springer is still on Dancing With the Stars! I don't usually get a chance to watch, but, I can only imagine he couldn't be that great a dancer. However, he does seem to dance around the misfits on his show!
The leaves are changing colors. Fall is actually here on the North Coast. That can only mean winter is just around the bend. Bah - humbug.
What is wrong with this world? Congressmen sending such disgusting emails to young boys, then claiming addiction to try and get out of it. Sounds like a Mel Gibson move to me, but even worse because he is an elected official. One that the people chose to represent them. Some representation.
My heart aches for the Amish families in PA. What a heinous act of violence and cowardice that shmuck pulled on hapless, defenseless little girls. How sick is this world getting?
Where has Eugene been for so long? He hasn't been on his blog since 9-9.
I miss B.B's updates. I hope her trip to Sidney is going well. Stay strong and brave, Amber.
Cher, you are due to update your blog, too! Abby came by on Tuesday. We need a coffee klutch together! Patty Potato-Cake stopped in today, but I was on a conference call and couldn't talk to her. Miss you!
I am done!
Until next time...goodnight!
