(I figured that was a more clever title than “Here are some bullets.”)

  • The lovely RA, one of my fave bloggy friends *and* a “Gap brand enthusiast” recently held a giveaway on her site for a gift card good for a $69.95 denim purchase. And I won! She’s forbidden me to spend any of it on the kid, so I guess I will be making a clothes purchase for the first time in many moons.
  • Ross and I just finished watching Arrested Development. It was a nice change after Band of Brothers and The Pacific. Even though I loved all of the characters, Buster is the best. Mostly because of how he always said, “Hey, brother…” I will now greet my own brother with that every time I see him.
  • The thing I said I was only going to talk about once has stalled somewhat. There is still interest but much less enthusiasm.
  • I recently put this together for work and, I must say, it’s the most fun I’ve had in a long time. Also: my job is fun and strange.
  • I’m currently reading Gone With the Wind. I’m 911 pages in with over 500 to go. GAWD.
  • JR loves singing now. The ABC song is his favorite. It goes something like “Ah-bee-cee-dee-ceee-emenemlo-p…” and so on. I’ll try to get a video so you all have something to watch over and over again.
  • Ross and I are now watching The Last Airbender. So far it’s just delightful, and I’m told it just gets better. I’m also told that I should never, ever see the movie.
  • I can now sing the Veggie Tales theme song by heart. It’s a charming song really.
  • The wikipedia article on Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean is fascinating. You should all read it.
  • BLT’s are the best invention ever. Ok, mayonnaise, then BLT’s.

Feel free to share your bullets in the comments.

  1. I’m opening up that Wiki page as we speak.. because I’m nosey and want to know why it’s so interesting.

    I used to sing the ABC song that way too.. right down to the elemennopee part. :)
