Morning MinutiaeHappy Friday to everyone. Not much happening here.
- On the way in this morning, I experienced the auditory version of The Surreal Life. Seems Uncle Krackerand Marlo Thomas have recorded a song together. It's a kids song for Marlo's "Thanks and Giving" album, but still...
- In other important news, you all know how I am always on the lookout for an Internet radio station that doens't drive me batty. This morning, I discovered Radio Margaritaville and, so far, it has potential. It isn't all Jimmy Buffett.
- Both older kids have 8am basketball games tomorrow.
- I think we're going to use those gift certificates from my mother to get a treadmill. Yes, I know it is a metaphor for my life, running but not getting anywhere, but I gotta do something about my physical state.
- Speaking of my physical state, I ate a healthy breakfast this morning and I'm kind of hungry now. Surely, this means I've lost 10 pounds by now, right?
- I need to use the restroom, but I have a potty nemesis. Whoever she is, she works at the other end of the hall and is frequently heading to the restroom at the same time I am. You can feel the tension when we encounter each other from opposite ends of the hall. We both pretend to be nonchalant about our intended destination, yet our paces quicken ever so slightly and the race, detectable to only us, is on. Yet, when I am the victor, it is bittersweet as my foe is one who will stand in the one-seater room until I am finished with my business, flagrantly flying in the face of all rules developed over centuries of office bathroom sharing.
- After taking the time to write that, I really gotta go.

I also had that same problem at my Sally's house when I wanted to use the toilet, because there dog Roxy was always in it before me pooping her number two's, but it never smelled for some reason, so maybe she was just waiting for me, but I'm not going because she peed on me last time!
I hope you have a nice weekend, Busy Mom!
Radio Marg is great (says my spouse, we aren't allowed streaming audio here at work :( )
I used to love KPIG out out Santa Cruz, but I think you have to pay to hear them now (is that right?) since whatever that law was that changed the royalty structure a couple years ago.
I listen to WinAmp and they 80's station they have listen in their media library.
Your posts always crack me up! Did she meet you at the bathroom again? Maybe she is a bathroom stalker and she has selected you! Watch out, she might want to steal your urine for some freak thing. LOL
Happy Friday!
Oh My ...this rides for one ..she's got to go! That would be soooo uncomfortable. I yell if I think anyone is even coming down the hall while I'm in there:) Next time send'er on a paper run ...tell her you think you'll be awhile;)
ONLY 10 pounds? Nyah!! Make it 11! :)
That bathroom nemesis may one day wish she didn't wait right outside that door - huh?
Maybe you should make a bathroom schedule~it's yours from quarter past to half past and it's hers from quarter til to the hour.
That way, you should never cross paths (or run for the toilet, although I think you should be able to 'call it'~which is like being appointed by the big man).
I can see it now. . .
On your mark,
Get set,
Go . . . Potty!
Perhaps having taken the time to write it, she will have done her business and be out of the way.
