Twitter-esque – Running

A blog entry – Twitter style.

I am in great shape.

Please don’t hate me.

The husband and GD’s birthdays are tomorrow – as in, on the same day (the stinker was impatient and couldn’t WAIT to be born – eight weeks early! Happy birthday, hubby!). As you can imagine, November 18th has worked out to be one of the busiest days of the year for me.

But no fear. I just finished my errands, made sure they both had something to open tomorrow, ordered their cookie cake (I think it’s going to be really cute this year), and we have plans to eat at Lambert’s for dinner tomorrow night.

I plan on picking GD up from school tomorrow and taking him out to lunch and the husband? Is scheduled to have a cavity drilled out (poor guy. *sad face*).

I was pretty stressed this morning, but now? Smooth as butta. Things are under control. Now if I could only focus on my NaNoWriMo project … it’s hard to be creative when all you want to do is PAR-TAY!

Conga line, everyone!

This was fun! I’m definitely going to participate in more photo challenges. It’s hard to train myself to see the beauty in everyday things – but I’m going to try!

Monday Morning Meme – November 17th

November 17, 2008November 18, 2008 Karen

All you have to do is answer the questions below either in the comment section, or on your blog. And elaborate! Make these questions show your unique and special personalities. This meme entry will post at 12:01 every Monday morning and will be the first postentry listed on WFK all day Monday. (This is an all-day Monday meme, so please, play all day!)

November 17th Questions:

1. How is burping seen in your family? Is it rude? Humorous? Applauded? And do you ignore it, apologize or hide it? Okay, same questions for farting. (Come on, don’t be shy! We’ve all done it!)

2. How long was it from your first date until the proposal of marriage? How long until the wedding? What do you think the shortest amount of time is acceptable between the first date and being engaged and getting married?

3. What do you have in your glove compartment? Show us a picture!

4. Which do you dislike most: pop-up ads or spam email? Do you think either “marketing” strategy is more effective than the other? Have you ever clicked on a pop-up ad or followed through with a spam email? What was the result?
