lots to say...

<----(heidi, sorry i posted the "oops it looks like we posed with heidi's cardboard cutout" picture on...i HAD to!)








OK...first of all, I've gotta share some fun from last night's little Girls' Night Out w/ Alli, Steph, and Heidi. It was soooo good to catch up and just go out to eat and we all knew we'd pretty much revert back to age 18 but who cares? It was just like old times, minus a few people. As we sat at our table at O'Charley's I said, "I feel like we're on Sex & The City...minus the sex. Well, and the city."


We had some good times chatting about life and singlehood and jobs and nieces and nephews and diversity issues in schools and food (i have to include steph's quote of the night that her caramel pie ice cream tasted "like heaven in her mouth") and apartments and houses and friends with babies and all else under the sun. And then we had silly time in Meijer as well as our photo shoot... here are pictures from the night:



heidi & steph...i think discussing the goodness of the caramel pie ice cream but i can't remember...








one of our many attempts to take photos of ourselves in the parking lot...

















...and that's all the good ones I got b/c my camera sucks and kept dying. oops. I need steph to email me hers. (hint, hint Steph)

...and onto tonight's conversation piece that really doesn't even need to happen...American Idol. seriously, do we need to even have a 2-hour event tomorrow night? i think we all know who's going to win. And if it's Katharine, you better believe I'm never watching it again. Doesn't matter anyways...Elliott was my vote.

-And what's with every other channel now having some sort of rock star show? Come up with something new, people!

-the ACM Awards ended with Kelly Clarkson performing with Rascal Flatts...I wasn't too impressed. I'm pretty sure their voices don't blend very well. Please try again.

-the movie The Interpretor is pretty darn good. I just finished it.

And, that's all. 5 minutes of your time spent reading this? I know, I have nothing better to do.

P.S. Yay, I'm taking 2 personal days that I need to use up--tomorrow (wednesday) and Friday so 4 day weekend for me and a nice day off tomorrow! Hopefully I'll be able to find something fun to do!
