Alec Baldwin and Cakes!

A week of Pretend

This week I worked full time for three days. I realized that you get out of work shape when you only work 4-10 hours a week. I need to build up my work endurance. My boss texted me last night saying I did not have to come in on Thursday. Wow, that was nice to hear. I was happy I was able to put so many hours in this week, maybe my pay will cover more than one gas station fill up and a trip to the groceries, but I am happy to have today off to fart around with. I think I will go for a nice long run, just easy going. I don’t need to go too fast today, and then maybe a nice little lunch with my mother-in-law Andrea. And then I get to catch up on my shows. I know that sounds annoying, like “oh I can’t live without my TIVO,” but still I have some shows I need catching up with. Can you believe I still have not watched 30 Rock? I know right, how can I go so long without seeing Mr. Alec Baldwin guide Liz Lemon?  Ah, even though he is getting older and heavier, he just gets more and more attractive. Maybe it’s his voice. My goal is to one day hear that voice in person. That would be amazing. Maybe he will be on the Lady Gaga tour and introduce her this April. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. Oh before I run maybe I will watch some Alec Baldwin youtube videos. nice

oh so you want to know how my day is?

This article below from the New York Times inspired me to write about my typical Sunday….

“SLEEP IN A BIT On a Sunday morning I will, of course, sleep in, because it’s very precious not to have to get up, but I can’t really sleep much past 8 or 9. I’ll get to my local cafe, Via Quadronno, by 10, and if it’s not too crowded, I’ll sit in the window seat to read.”

But Really this is my Sunday. I usually wake up around 6am, I will look at my watch to make sure it is not 2:30am and then I will grab my little puppy and hold her in my arms until I am done using the WC. If I put Chewy on the ground she will rush to pee in the corner of the room, or at the top of the stairs. Then I go outside with my puppy and my old dog, and they take care of their business. I will feed the pups then  do a brisk 5 min ab exercise. Then maybe make an espresso and do some stretching.

About an hour after I have been up I will start the main part of my day, either I will go for an amazing run by myself, do a fun bike ride with friends, or do some sort of endurance race.

After the sweaty excitement is over, I will probably eat more than my share of calories for the day, and then wait for bed.

Yep that is my Sunday. Just as exciting as Christine Baranski’s. 

puppy time

But really, sometimes I am reading the New York Times and their articles about somewhat famous people are so boring. I just can’t believe this was newsworthy. I feel bad for all the struggling writers who get their work rejected so the news paper can make room for this little fart of an article. yucko

got a new one

We got a new office chair. it is very inspiring. yep. got me to post here. i just watched the Frida movie, made me want to quit plucking my eyebrows and paint scary self portraits. maybe in my next life. it is

age three, sitting on a bar stool in a kitchen and swinging my legs

baby girl named Anna

So when my unborn daughter named Anna becomes 3 or 4, she is going to start playing soccer. She will also learn a language, take  dance class, play guitar and love dogs. She will also draw me little darling photos that I will scan into my computer and save on a hard drive just for her. That way it will never clutter up the kitchen drawers. My little Anna. Maybe she will be a 2015 baby. Probably or maybe 2014. That sounds so futuristic. I was listening to a song at work and scanning patient charts, and you know how mindless tasks and music make you want to day dream. uh oh. that was my first real day dream about my daughter. yikes. that biological clock is really exploding in my head. but my logic is out weighting my reasoning. I can not get pregnant while I am in school. Learning anatomy and popping out a baby just don’t mix. at least not in my life. I can’t have a baby till the price of SUV hybrids go down. Smart Anna

when in doubt do what has worked

So today I woke up very early because my chihuahua was all itchy. But I have been setting my alarm to wake up early, and now Honey has programed her brain to wake up at 5am. I guess she is just trying to keep me successful. She knows the early bird catches the worm. In my case if I sleep in too late the Orlando Heat will drain me. So now I am just downloading some music (which i am buying, no more free downloads) and am excited about a fun run with tunes.

And then guess what??? Cleaning. Yep. Adam has been looking forward to this day for the past week. We are going to have a nice little cleaning party.

But enough about that day to day crap. Life has been busy. So busy that all my extra brain power for small talk, reading, and writing here has been stored up just so I can tune in and watch my favorite TV shows on hulu.com

So sorry for the long absence. I use to get waves of creative thoughts that made me want to write about myself. It happened at least 1 to 2 times a month. But lately I have  just been thinking about Moroccan Oil and the next time I will be falling asleep. Yeah, Moroccan Oil. I thought that was going to solve all my hair frizz problems. But it really hasn’t. It just makes my hair smell nice. And now Adam has been draining my little beaker of oil. I guess Adam likes to have a fancy Moroccan hair shine too.

So I am giving up on trying to style my hair. I am going back to my traditional style, just not touching it. I guess frizzy hair is all the rage in France (said Andrea who just got back from 10 days in Paris).  But walking to work and drinking wine with every meal is also very French. You know, I could handle that. In my next life I will walk to work, and I will do it in a manner so I will never sweat and my hair will not get messed up. Ugh, I remember walking to college classes across UM’s Campus. How did I manage?

so there. i got it out. nothing too interesting today but that is it. gonna go sweat out some miles now. Smile!

I want a little elf Lemur to smile at me
