Oh, I need to make coffee for the morning ASAP.

Also, I just had a little snack of my work anniversary chocolates. I think it's sweet that they do that -- they come in the mail, and aren't good chocolate, but still.

I wonder if the tornado watch here is new or if it continued straight through from yesterday.

So I picked up the new Weezer red album.... I must say I really like the song Heart Songs, IMHO it's one of the best songs they have done.

i'm trying to decide what to do with myself the rest of the day. i have free movie passes i can use. do i go see the new Indy movie by myself? do i head to Barnes & Noble? or do i just head over to the parent's house to have some human interaction.

We netflixed the current obsession of the girls at daycare, High School Musical. So we'll be watching that one.

Here's the speech for them that missed it: [link]

We went to see a production of Cabaret a friend directed at the high school he teaches at last night. It's an inner-city school and really didn't have much of a drama department before he got there, so it's very cool to see the kids so involved. Not only did it have a kick-ass teeny little Filipino Sally Bowles and an all-Hispanic set of Nazis, at the end of the show the cast stopped the curtain call and asked a "special guest" onstage. A teacher came up, and then asked a woman, another teacher, up onstage and he got on one knee and PROPOSED! After she cried and said yes and we all cheered, he asked for the houselights to be turned on and both sets of their parents were there as well as a surprise. It was adorable.

tiggy, I choose free movies every time. Plus: Shia!

I love free movies!

It was adorable.

Aw, that sounds like a great evening!

When I was out and about, I saw two people I meant to mention here: First, for shrift, at the subway station, there was a woman with fully blinged-out high-heeled silver sandals on, with capri pants and a t-shirt. Second, I saw my first real-life Lolita! She looked just like Little Bo Peep, although don't tell her I said that.

No one in that audience will forget the performance ever! That's sweet.

I ran errands. Had a slight issue where my car windows wouldn't roll back UP. Panic. Finally got them to. It was weird Not sure if I'd hit the lock or what, but another thing on the list to have checked out at the mechanic's. Along with a/c recharge. OMG HOT OUT THERE.

Don't get me wrong, I like the heat and can usually cope pretty well with it. Except I have to acclimate. We've barely had any days in the 80 and little humidity and all of a sudden it is 95 and humid! I got so slimy and hot (and went through 64 oz water in 2 hours and that was only carting stuff to and from the car and waiting for the a/c to make progress against the greenhouse effect) I took a cool shower when I got home.

And now I'm having a huge bowl of salad with croutons and grape tomatoes and parm. I was going to clean today, but I think that can wait.
