I couldn't wait anymore. In the midst of our very busy day (do you detect my note of sarcasm here?)I called the Diamond Council Of America. I PASSED my final exam. I am a Certified Diamontologist. Whoop-de-doo. That and a $1.39 will get me a cup of coffee at my corner donut shop! Actually, for my efforts and as a congratulations, I am supposed to get a $50 gift card from my company. That and a whole bunch of my own money will get me something at my store! In about 8 - 12 weeks, a lovely placque will be sent to the store. The placque, however, does not belong to me. Should I leave, the hunk of wood stays! But the certification is still mine, for all eternity. I want to take my pin (if I ever get it), my loupe and my wallet and go to the diamond district in NYC and get me something dazzling. That is not a statement of sarcasm, but one of fiction!
Have I mentioned lately my mixed emotions over this laptop I bought? I have become a total bed potato! I lay in bed and play on it. I forget to go to sleep,I forget to clean, I forget to make cards, sometimes I even forget to eat (not complaining there). My typing is getting better, though!
Sara, my friend told me tonight that she read somewhere that they are killing off another character on Grey's, but she didn't know who. Bummer dudette. Who do you think it is? I would guess it is Callie, then George would leave, since I read somewhere he wants out. All supposition here.
YAAKOVA, WHERE R U? You haven't updated your blog in FOREVER, nor have you been here. You are making me worry about you again. Please leave a comment somewhere letting me (and Bagel) know you are o.k. I miss you.
Danielle, where have you been, too? I miss your wit and humor. How are the girls?
The 25th is my cousin Kathy's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Kathy!
I just got home from work, and of course, computing (and blogging) was my first order of business! Now I must get something to nosh on (Weight Watcher's appropriate, of course).
Until next time...goodnight!

Hey... I didn't mean they were killing off ANOTHER character on Grey's... I'd meant that I'd read somewhere they were killing one off, before I'd seen this past weeks episode. I figured it wasn't Meredith though, as the show is named after her, and after reading your summary (before seeing the show!) I learned it was her mother... but rest assured, I have not heard about anybody else being 86ed on the show... Just the tidbit about the spin-off with Addison!
Hi Maureen!
Congratulations, Ms. Diamontologist!! When are we going shopping at the diamond wholesaler's!?
Thanks for your concern about me-- I'm okay!! Just too tired to get back into the blogosphere at the moment. I'm working very hard, and have 2 trips and 2 out of town visitors scheduled, so I need to make money despite all the upcoming distractions. By the time I get home, I'm too tired to even watch TV, let alone actually write something!
I'll check in with you here occasionally, and I promise that when I'm blogging again, I'll let you know.
Hugs,
Yaakova :)
Hey Yaakova, name the date and the place!! I just need to hit the Lotto first. Don't work too hard, take the time to stop and smell the roses. You don't want to be so exhausted you can't enjoy your trip to Israel when you finally get there.
Yeah Sharon, from what I heard there will be a 2 hour episode in May that will be the prelude to the spin-off show for the Addison character. It will be about neo-natal surgeons and Taye Diggs has already signed on to co-star. I hope McSteamy stays on! Hubba-hubba!!
