I am such a diva.

Seriously. My last post? Pathetic.

I'm in the high-tech business! I know that information flows in at warp speed and part of my job is to manage it well.

I guess I just wasn't managing it well right at that moment so I whined a little.

I apologize. You guys deserve better than that. Like TV trivia, perhaps.

Ok, so what about Dexter? Is anyone watching that right now? I am so hooked on that show, when Deborah dropped yet another f-bomb in a conversation in the last episode, I looked at G.G. and said, 'You know, she's charming in kind of a prickly, fresh, no bullshit way.' He just looked at me and said he didn't think she could be considered charming..that wasn't quite the right word.

Ok, G.G.

And what about House??? I love that show, I do, but I have to confess, it's starting to wear on me a little. I'm tiring of the incessant mind games, though I love the new characters, and the reintro of the older ones...that was cool. But it's starting to feel strained and really contrived to me. This has happened before, where I'm forced to take a House break, so I'm not too worried, just noticing is all.

And Grey's Anatomy? WTH? Teddy..poor Teddy. And Derek and Meredith, can they handle this setback? And what about Avery and Lexi and...there is a whole buttload of darkness right now that they need to start digging out of, in  my opin. The prior episode had some of the older style lightness and banter and general humor that we've all come to love in those characters/situations..but this last one. Yikes. I had just started to believe that the beloved crew could work their myriad problems out..now, I'm not so sure. And honestly, I would have watched this week's episode no matter what anyway!

Oh, and those of you who know me will love this. I won the football pool this week! It was no small feat, and it came down to points at the very end (which my boss, who happened to be in the running, too, is protesting...something about combined score closest to, but not over, which was the rule for the last pool we had but not for this one so I was two points over the combined but he was six points under so technically I was closest) so it was exciting and G.G. actually kept me updated during the annual boys soccer banquet last night..he'd occasionally whisper the score...which felt a little clandestine, and fun..

I don't know for sure what the pot looks like, but I'm going to split it with G.G.

Because we all know that without his insight, I'd NEVER stand a chance of winning that silly pool, even for just one week.

Schnazzed up Desert Magnolia..again, thanks to LP the graphics guru!

Happy Thursday, everyone! Nope, it's not quite Spring yet, but sometimes a girl's gotta get a new 'do. Or in this case this girl's gotta get a new blog header. You know what I mean. Thank you LP! You rock. I love the artistic approach..it's soft but nice and still says, 'Enter here at your own risk, for opinions of a strong nature are sure to be expressed.' That's how I see it, anyway.

What do you wear in Austin in October??

It's suppose to be in the 80's during the day, and only in the 70's at night. It's humid. I'm not sure what to pack. For once I'm attending a conference instead of having a booth at the tradeshow and networking that way. It's going to be good...to be in the classroom, listening to what people are caring about now. I look forward to it. But I'm spending way too much time worrying about whether jeans are too hot, capris are too cliche, clogs are passe, should I just go with a theme and be done with it, and all that crap. Seriously, you'd think I have better things to waste mental energy on, right? Apparently not so much.

Stormy Tuesday, with a chance of showers too....

The emotions, to say they're wildly fluctuating would be an exaggeration, but they are certainly not balanced and I am so not centered and I'm finding it really hard to maintain my train of thought and I'm now even more worried about my son moving to Abu Dhabi now that they're further limiting Blackberry communications, and my daughter has a stomach bug. But other than that, everything's cool in my world. Son heads to Abu Dhabi this Saturday, early evening my time. Daughter heads to Providence, RI, this Saturday, before lunch. Hubby just informed me we're committed to a dinner at his department head's house Saturday night for a 'casual evening with the new headmaster and his wife.' Are you kidding me? WTF? Of all the things I want to be doing Saturday night, I'm pretty sure schmoozing with the new guy (hub's boss for hell sake) is NOT on the list. My list looks more like this: Take a nap after first wave of absolute searingly...
