What are your plans for the long weekend (if you have to work on Monday - spew about your job/boss/company)?
Crazy weekend planned. Have to take the oldest child and her best friend to the Museum of Latin American Art for their Spanish class. Said friend will spend the night. Take her home Sunday a.m., do laundry, then dinner with my mom and brother. Monday is a block party on my mom's street, lots of fun, food and family I only get to see on Memorial Day and Christmas.
Where was your best vacation ever and why was it so freakin awesome?
Man, that's a toughie. I'd say the cruise to Alaska last year. It was beautiful and relaxing but the trip to London a couple of years ago was wonderful too and so was Hawaii..guh, so hard to choose, we've been very lucky in our vacation plans (thanks to my brother!)
say something happymaking or nice that has happened this week.
The 9 y.o.'s school open house is tomorrow night. I love going to open house. The kids are all so excited and we get to see all the projects they've been working on.
Oh and I vote cupcakes, msbelle!
Use of gloves not so food-safe after all.
JZ, if you're porcine, I am a one-eyed Asian man.
Hey, you never know. This is the internet.
I think my version is for those of us with intimacy issues. Some of the rules are different.
cute boys
I should get some of these this weekend.
Anyone want to mail me some?
you need much help.
I left work for lunch and was heading toward BK when I realized that didn;t sound good (SHOCKING) so I went home instead and had left over mac&cheese and watched a DVRd show. YAY! Then I took the stairs instaed of the elevator and felt all righteous and shit and now am back at work. the end.
Plans: Attend wedding of former semi-Buffista and ex-Trouble Down South bassist Julie Beth. Rest when possible. Probably work Monday, 'cause the Lege is still at it. Incidentally, this event on the floor of the House yesterday was one of the funniest things I've heard all session.
Best vacation: Italy '00. I got hitched, saw some art, ate lots of gelato, hiked, fished, relaxed like hell. Close 2nd: Brazil '97, 'cause not many people can tell stories of swimming with piranha and caimans or seeing giant anteaters, anacondas, and capybaras in the wild.
Weekly happy: Tie between brunch with msbelle last weekend and Li'l Jandek making repeated singy "aaaaaaa"s for about 5 minutes straight while listening to John Coltrane last night. That was freakin' cool.
Plans for the weekend: massage after work Friday; lots of nothing the rest of the weekend. Laze about, clean out the closets for Goodwill, watch the 2 weeks' worth of Fullmetal Alchemist I have taped. Just a lot of loafing.
OMG, I'm totally torturing myself watching Bobby Simone die on NYPD Blue. Still.
Jesse - turn it off turn it off - so sad. Bobby!!! you don;t have to fight....for me... GAH!
you need much help.
Does that mean they're in the mail?
SO SAD. But so good. At least I'll be working fulltime (god willing) by the time they get to Diane doing it with Ricky Schroeder.
PS: Awwww, Corwood!

Tep, that's very sweet of you, but the body image demons care not a whit about anyone's actual non-porcinitude. Factual attractiveness has been repeatedly proven to offer little to no defense against the attack of a really determined body image demon (if it did, the Buffistas in all their collective foaminess would be quite safe, instead of bedeviled as we are).
