down with curses

Yeah the Sox one! Yes, Yes, Yes! Two years in a row. First Red then White. Now no excuses. Get rid of the Goat curse (Cubs) and what will fans have to blame bad seasons on.

who's life sucks more

Lately Ergo and I have conversations in which we try and convince each other that really the other's life is better. See both of us are unmarried and in our 30s. So we don't have any of those things we thought we'd have by the time you are 30. No house, no husband, not making the big bucks, no kids. It gos something like this: Me: At least you have a boyfriend. Her: At least you have a job. That's it, the arguement doesn't go on for long. So I thought I'd see what you all think? What's more important the relationship or the job?

today I

Today I arrived at work wearing my shirt inside out. I did not discover this for awhile until I went into the bathroom. Maybe everyone thought I was setting a new trend. Anyway, sadly to say this is not the first time this has happened to me. Further fashion blunders I've committed: wearing two different shoes.

Tonight I'm going to go home and attempt to make crab cakes. My only complaint about restaurant crab cakes is they are often dry and you have to drown them in the sauce they hopefully provide. Hmmm, I have no sauce. This could be bad. Anyway I found a mix and I thought I'd give it a try.

i won

apperently I won the last session of the movie quotes game. See link at right. Don't remeber how to do html. Anyway I don't even remeber playing. I must have put a few quotes in and then never went back. How weird. Yeah me.

runs screaming from the room

so a few of you know that I am supposed to be applying for a new job. You might wonder why I don't. so I'll let you in on the thought process that went through my brain tonight as I tried to apply. "Wow this is perfect, wait I don't have the skills, Ok I have the skills, ack there is a deadline, Ok maybe I can make the deadline, they want a what?, what if no one writes me a good reference, do I have three references, what if I get there and it's not the perfect job, and then the perfect job comes but I'm stuck in this job for 2-3 years, and then I'm 40, and no one wants to higher me because they want someone who's 30 ... chest tightens, heart palpitates, what if there is a spelling mistake in my CV, stupid CV, stupid cover letter, stupid proposal, stupid job.

nice walk

Had a nice walk with Sadie on Sunday. Went to the Prairie Conservation Area. All the weeds/wildflowers were in bloom. The only thing that marred the time was the constant sound of traffic on the interstate not so faraway. Got lost crossing the creek again. It's in a hollow and about 6 paths diverge off of it. I always seem to pick the wrong one. But a couple of loops and a back track and we finally found our way out of the park. Had to get home in time to see charmed.
