Viewers Like You

At several points today I wanted to toss several people into a single burlap bag and then chuck the thing into the river. (Which river? Mmmm, we'll say the Chicago.)

I realized, though, that instead of making me feel better that image just served to make me madder as the day went on. Clearly, the one week until maternity leave can't come soon enough. Did I perhaps schedule too many things right at the end? Apparently, even though I thought I was being all smart about it. (Which I wasn't, because even though my last day of contact hours is the 21st I realized today that I still have paperwork to turn in that probably won't all be complete until December 1st. Pretty familiar complaint of mine, yes, I know. La de dah.)

You know what always cheers me up? Remembering that either this or this is being aired.

And here's a link to a segment that made me laugh out loud for at least twenty seconds once it hit the end. Yellow Dog can confirm this dorkitude behavior on my part. (Oh, we haven't hit my box of photographs yet, but I happen to know that there is a picture of 11-year-old me reading OMNI on the couch whilst sporting a shiny pink quilted robe.)

I don't know if providing that video link means that I'm scabbing the writer's strike, but I do know it is time to make a sandwich.

YUM.

That video clip was fab. I hope I wasn't one of the people you want to throw in the river. xxoo

I'm guessing that segment was written long before the strike, so I don't think you have any worries on that point.

And seriously, I don't think I'll ever be able to eat CoolWhip (tm) again - not that I did much before, but you know, just in case I'm ever tempted in the future.

He's my new secret boyfriend. How can I make our relationship a reality?
