missing

This morning, I had the brilliant idea to stream The Mountain on my computer at work. I trust you all enjoy your "drop dead gorgeous" day.

I miss: the Mountain & the mountains, the water, walking thru downtown, dropping in somewhere for coffee, wandering into Nordies because I need moisturizer, waving at fellow baristas in different stores, walking thru BoA just to say hi, tossing my empty cup as I stop in for another cuppa, stepping over the sleeping homeless & using my iPod to avoid the panhandlers. Wait - those are the 2 things I don't miss. Usually. Today I do tho.

Oh, and I miss U!!!

tuesday morning

So today, while driving to work, I heard Learning to Fly while I was drinking a Venti Sumatra (1 Raw Sugar, 2% milk). MMMMM!!! However, because I was driving the parkway rather than the highway, it just didn't have the same feel. shrugs. Guess I should be thankful to have both. And a job to go to in the morning.


In stopping to get said Venti Sumatra... I walked into my old store and knew all 7 customers who were sitting in the cafe drinking their coffee. It was neat to see all of them. And it was nice that they all wanted me back because they miss me. Aw... It was nice to see K, but he's always too busy to actually have a convo - ever since that one when I told him I wasn't coming back...


Have I mentioned that I discovered Jango? I love it. I type in an artist, whoever I feel like listening to, and then it's like listening to my very favorite radio station all day. But... I can pause a song when I have to go to the filing cabinet, printer, mail room, etc. NEAT!


I did a Pampered Chef party last night. I made Creamy One Pot Pasta & Taffy Apple Tartlets. The pasta was yummy! My host bought butterscotch sauce rather than caramel sauce, so the tartlets weren't as sweet as I think they should have been. But they were still good. And her youngest (2 1/2) kissed me good night. It was really sweet, but he was quite naughty the rest of the evening. I like doing parties, but I'm exhausted by the time I get home.


I'm still waiting on that hug from California.


I wish I could travel - Chicago, Seattle, Vancouver, LA.......


I miss you all!!!!

the problem...

...with taking the interstate to work...
...with listening to Classic Rock on your way...

I listen to 99.1 WAAL on my way to work. My sister questions this, but I've been a fan of Steve since his days at Star. AND I like Steve, Kathy & Big Wally. Anyways, The WAAL used to be "bad". I remember my mother telling me that Mrs. Johnson had told her that it was bad and that I was not to listen to it. I always wanted to know how Mrs. Johnson knew that it was bad, but I never got a satisfactory answer. .shrugs.

Anyways...

What is it about Classic Rock that makes you (ME) want to just drive and drive? Pink Floyd's Learning to Fly came on this morning, and, as I turned it up, I was disapointed that I couldn't just keep driving.

Fortunately, I was able to hear the entire song before I pulled in the parking lot, so that made it better, but still.

I'm on the interstate, it's early in the morning, and there's Floyd on the radio? I wanna drive!

um...

The Dunkin Donuts mug on my desk is filled with a combination of Starbucks Gazebo Blend & Maxwell House prepack from the office kitchen. Hmmm...
