Monday a.m.

Ozzy Osborne was medicated?? Now who would have ever suspected that? Or, more to the point probably, why is it news?

I'm in yet another direct mail project from hell. 400 addresses. This time my only job is stuffing, stamping and mailing. The guy dictating the deadline (Wednesday) is the guy supplying the letters and labels. He said he'd have them Friday. Friday he sent email saying he'd have them first thing Monday. This morning there was an email saying he had to take his son to day care so he'd be in late. His tardiness, however, has no affect on the deadline.

I'm sorry for those of you in the snow belt who hate snow. But, that does not prevent me from a giant case of snow envy. I'm loving the snow pictures and wishing I could take some of my own. I'm particularly envious of joyofmac's snow day!

We don't have snow but we do have blissfully cool weather these days and I'm very grateful. Cooler would be fine, however.

I watched about half of Finding Nemo before I gave up. It was pretty but that wasn't enough to keep me. I just remembered that I forgot to bring in the Netflix for mailing back. I'll have to run home and get them in a bit. I'm going to need to replace this contact lens anyway. I'm very grateful to live a half block from work.

Yesterday I discovered another potential employer - a little software company tucked into an old warehouse about a half block the other way from here and across the street. They have now made my coveted list.

So often in life we find ourselves liking one thing but getting another. This often happens with hair as an example. Those with straight hair wish they had curly and vice versa. Same goes with weather. Those who love the cold end up living where it is warm. I hate snow with a passion and my daughter loves it. (I wonder if they switched babies?) I guess I can't complain all the time because I live with seasons. Wish I could send you a truck load of our snow so you can frolick in it for a day. :)

What a lovely thought - a truckload of snow for me. Thanks. I have been thinking lately that if I could find a place that had snow and cold but never had any hot anytime, I might be tempted. I loved Minnesota - most of the year. But the summers where torture and not worth it. Sigh.

Well, there's Greenland.

I'm mortified by how little I know about Greenland. Research time!

NH was warm at Thanksgiving and a week later has 18" of snow, there's no justice.

I didn't want to say anything about Finding Nemo when I saw it was on your list, it was strongly recomended to me and I could just as well have missed it and been no worse off. Perhaps pure anthropomorphism is too cutesy for me? I like the look of their next one though, I was out with a friend from Pixar last night and she was wearing an Incredibles t-shirt.

I'm not so big on annimation but I do love the colors of tropical fish so I thought... maybe... There were one or two cute/clever lines but not enough to keep me. Incredibles does look interesting... hmmm
