Friday Bullets: Nothing Special Edition
- Oh, hello darlings! I’ve missed you all so much.
- My first week of work was very successful. I’m glad to work with such a smart group of people who are passionate about promoting travel in this great state of ours.
- Not that I didn’t work with smart people before. But, you know.
- You know what’s awesome about new job? CASUAL FRIDAY, Vanilla Diet Coke from Sonic, and a nearby yarn store.
- Also, awesome is being done with the antibiotics prescribed for my kidney infection. The antibiotics that sucked every ounce of energy out of me, causing me to go to bed at a ridiculous hour (Um, 8 p.m.)
- So, I have lots of blog catching up to do.
- What REALLY surprises me is that nobody was willing to come over here and read your blogs posts to me, and then type my comments as dictated. Whatever.
- Can someone explain to me why the guy on Celebrity Rehab Sober House wears his bluetooth headseat around all the time? I can’t be the ONLY ONE watching this terrible program, right?
- My grandparents will be celebrating their 60th! Anniversary in a couple weeks. Apparently, certain members of my family are totally assholes and will not help my mom and I throw a party. Nor, will they even commit to a date that they can even attend the party.
- 60 Years is NOTHING TO SNEEZE at.
- So, we say SCREW YOU! And, we’re doing something awesome that does not include them.
- And, if you have any gift ideas incorporating the traditional gift of diamonds (besides you know, actual diamonds) let me know.
- So, this weekend, I’ll for reals be having Bill install my new IKEA Shelving in my dining room. It will house the 4 million awesome cookbooks that I inherited from my sweet Grandma.
- I’ll also be parking myself on the couch getting caught up on Lost and also Big Love. I’ve learned that little girls who are not watching Lost cannot be on Twitter on Wednesday nights.
- And, lastly, I’ll be whipping up PW’s Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Thingies for my friend Carrie’s Super Bowl Party. This time, I’ll be wearing gloves, because it really sucked last time when I cut up jalapenos and then TOUCHED MY FACE.
- And, just to give you all something to look forward to for next week, I’ll soon be reviewing a book and there will also be a giveaway. So, you just hold on tight for that!
- Enjoy your weekend, friends!

I might just be the only person on the face of the planet that does not like those bacon wrapped jalapeno things.
Also? My favorite drink to get at Sonic is a Diet Sprite with cranberry and cherry in it. It does not disappoint.

30. January - 6:36 amI have made the mistake of working with jalapenos and then rubbing my eye.
Oh my heavens. I wanted to die.

30. January - 6:40 amI have never watched a single show you mentioned including Lost, which everyone seems to love. I guess I’m too busy watching people overeat/have a lot of children on TLC.
I’m really excited about your new bookshelf for some reason. I guess I just adore books.
The giveaway sounds very exciting. I will have you know I use the book mark I won all the time. :)
30. January - 6:40 amI have to stay off Twitter when I am not watching Lost or Top Chef or American Idol because it can easily be ruined for me.
Glad you’re liking your new job AND are feeling better!

30. January - 7:34 amWhy does he wear that stupid ear piece and why don’t the majority of his shirts have sleeves?! Also, would someone please get rid of Mary Carey’s boyfriend? HATE
Nic’s last blog post..One of my favorite stories. That I forgot about. And that applies to real life.
30. January - 7:43 amI’ve never had Sonic. Or In-and-Out Burger. Or Chick Filet. But I have had Roy Rogers.
I have to review a book on NYC’s Best Bars. I think I might test some out. Tough life I lead, right?

Kate’s last blog post..Update Coming!
30. January - 8:27 amI didn’t watch Lost on Wed night either. It was the first thing I did when I got home last night because while people don’t say they are giving away spoilers on Twitter, they totally are!
I love Sober House. Did not see it last night.
Glad the new job is awesome!

30. January - 8:33 amLast night I was in my bed at 8:00pm. This week has killed my brain dead. Hurrah! for your new position, and it being awesome, and for Super Bowl parties that include bacon.
(My toes are screaming “pedicure me! pedicure me!” Also: I miss you.)

30. January - 9:42 amI just reread my comment and have decided to take the phrase “I guess” out of my vernacular for the next week. You’re welcome.
30. January - 12:19 pmI just want a big cup of ice from sonic. I love that stuff!
Also? Much bacon please. And perhaps some booze?

30. January - 3:12 pmYou aren’t the only one watching that terrible show, and yeah i was wondering the same about the bluetooth.
30. January - 10:32 pmI don’t watch the sober house show, though I did watch the Celebrity Rehab show (cause I have a mad crazy schoolyard crush on Dr. Drew). I’m too busy watching important things like Rockin Bus Love w/dirty old rockers and The unReal World season 76.
And 60 years is a HUGE accomplishment!! I tend to get sick of most people after 60 days. :)

31. January - 6:02 pmConfession: For years, I thought Chik-Fil-A was pronounced “chicka-filla.” (There aren’t any around here! I didn’t know! I DIDN’T KNOW!) On a less humiliating note, so glad to hear that the first week of work went well! xo

2. February - 10:28 pmGlad you’re feeling better! I’m a chronic UTI gal, so I know, baby, I know.
Happy Anniversary to your rockin’ grandparents. I say to hell with the rest of the family who doesn’t appreciate that. And why don’t you get them one of those huge fake diamond paper weights. That would rock. Get it? Rock? I’m so funny, right? Right???
