I think it is nice that Perkins admitted I was the nicest.

In NYC, sure.

eta: Yay Kat!

A couple of weeks ago CBS Sunday Morning did a story on the program that Mad Hot Ballroom is based. It was really cute to see the kids get all serious when they were dancing. I want to see it, but there's no way in HELL I'll be able to talk the hubby into it. I'll have for rental.

I'm heading home, hopefully I'll beat everyone else there and I can wrap birthday gifts. I procrastinated because all the wrapping paper is buried in the storage unit. I suck, the kid's birthday is tomorrow - I had to buy a bunch of gift bags today.

I was going to say it's a product of my New England upbringing, but what is up with the Cindy? Anyway, there's more you can do to stay cool when you're awake. Like, go to the movies.

I like staying home. I am a homebody. And maybe I am crazy, but I don't think that the $11 for a movie is cheaper than running my a/c for 2 hours at home.

The Perkins, she is so cute in that way that crazy people are.

Awwww, msbelle thinks I'm cute.

Well, yeah, but then you get the movie!

... I don't know. It just seems wrong. Of course, I also have the smoking/ventilation/window open issue, but my parents never run the AC in the daytime either.

I hate the heat. Hate it. I want to give it to ita, and take the days that are too cool for her. I like it in the 60s. I am okay in the 70s. Eighties get on my nerves and if it is muggy, and it usually is, I suffer. Over 90, I hate it, even when it is not muggy.

I'd rather have a summer full of 60 degree days than 90 degree days.

I have 24 minutes left before I can leave work.

I think people should spend it telling me things that make them happy.

The pony that is sitting on my computer makes me happy. So does the thought that I soon I will be home, eating microwave popcorn for dinner and watching a movie.

eta: Oooh, now it's down to 21.

"Mad Hot Ballroom"

Stay through the credits! There are extra bits! They are funny!

What makes me happy: Remembering Emmett tumbling along the long trampoline during his circus camp show, and how he was the only kid in his group to jump and try to do the splits, and a little girl seated a couple of rows back said, "Oooh, lookit that boy!"

Also happy: Kavalier & Clay is waiting for me at home. I am not quite halfway through. All the goodness it's given me so far, I get to look forward to all over again plus a little extra.

Also happy: I petted a spaniel puppy this morning. It was very bouncy and happy with a grinny little face and unbelievably soft fur.

It also jumped at me so eagerly that it pulled its owner right off her feet, which lessened the happy and made me feel kind of guilty. Also worried, because even though it's a smallish spaniel (maybe a King Charles?) and probably won't ever get over 25 pounds at the very most, if it's knocking her down now she's in a world of trouble once it hits doggie adolescence.

Forgot to mention:

Also happy: going back and rereading the msbelle and Jesse and ita show from last night. That's some funny shit!
