Oops, I forgot to mention Beth's cut, which is excellent.

There's some PBS travel program on the television.

Host: Why is this called Monkey River?

Native Guide: Well, there are a lot of monkeys.

I have a cute new haircut.

You certainly do.

Good glasses too.

I have washed, dried, folded and put away 4 loads of laundry today. Load #5 is in the dryer and I just started a load of diapers washing. I feel very accomplished.

Nice cut Jessica. Call to get the stylist name.

I'm making lists and checking them twice or something. Brendon is flying to Atlanta in the early morning. In Gainesville for a couple days then Atlanta on Wednesday. Back late Wednesday night. Then he is off to SoCal all next week. Between 2 school schedules and 3 sports team schedules and my work schedule I am making every effort to get super organized. My calendar is moaning.

Stephanie is almost me. Load 4 is in the washer (but it all gets hung up to dry, so I'm almost done). I have no baby diapers to do, though. Now if I would just get some math or my incomplete worked on. I have a meeting with my professor tomorrow to go over my incomplete. I'd like to get a little more done before I see him.

Sundays just seem like wash days to me.

So happy to hear that the Blanket is keeping Stephanie warm and Ellie amused at the same time. Now that's the way for a fuzzy inanimate object to multitask.

I had a cat who was crazy for asparagus and could eat 4 stalks at a sitting.

Jess, could you call up and set up an appointment with her for whenever-from-now-you'll-be-needing one by calling *today*? I guess I figure it's slightly less weird if they can just glance down at the appointment book from today and see who you were with? Otherwise, you'll just have to stalk the place and walk in and say hi to her and ask when she's got appointments, and ask for her card then.

Also: Cass, WTF kind of school is your niece at??

And, I just spent an hour and a half on the phone trying to figure out what the hell to say to my umfriend in Minneapolis. She'd wanted me to go out there in March, and I decided it didn't seem like a good idea, and we're trying to figure out what the hell we're doing anyway. I'm pretty firmly on the "I don't want to date someone in Minnesota" stance, with a side of "and therefore maybe doing anythign else with you isn't a good idea either". But I think she's a little more on the "Long distance sucks, but I like you and what the heck is the problem with doing something which we don't call dating?". Sigh.

Cass, I am glad you got to talk to your niecelet.
