At the moment

Random things I'm thinking about

- Kids movies. In the last week I've curled up on the couch to watch: Enchanted, The Incredibles, Over The Hedge, Wall-E, and Bee Movie. Seriously. There must be something in the air.


- Speaking of something being in the air, we know three couples who are expecting! How awesome is that?! Eric & Shannon are pregnant with their second, Mark & Lauren will be the proud parents of baby twins on December 11th, and Bill & Kathleen are due in April. Awesome, awesome and awesome!


- This weekend we're putting up our Christmas decorations! Yesssss! I'm debating whether or not I should buy a bunch of glittery Christmas banners and string them up in everyone's office before they get in to work. Doing so would either result in lots of smiles, or lots of people complaining about the political correctness of Christmas banners. I'm seriously considering doing it. Maybe under the cover of night, so those scrooges who go around saying "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas" won't know who to blame.


- Total Wine is having a Total Tasting Extravaganza! Free admission - check! Tasty, bite-sized appetizers - check! So many wine and beer samples that I may leave the store a little more than just tipsy - check!


- Quicken Online. Could they make my life any easier?! Using Excel to keep track of finances is for suckers, and I'm a sucker no more.


- Why oh why does hot air have to rise?! I mean, I understand the physics behind it, but sheesh! Our bedroom is about 20 degrees warmer than the rest of our house, and our lower level is about 20 degrees colder. It's kind of annoying and it makes it hard for me to sleep at night.


- When is it going to snow already?

- Will someone please send me these? I'm a 7.5, which they appear to be sold out of so you'll have to do some serious searching. I'm not really in the position to spend $600 on a pair of booties, but I figure maybe the cyber-gods will take pity on my lack of funds. Maybe.
