So... I am finally getting some "me" time after spending the day with 3 boys (2 are 8, 1 is 9).

Why must Edwards Theaters not update their times? We went to go see the 11:45 showing of Racing Stripes. We got there and the first showing wasn't until 2:15. We went out to lunch instead and then caught it at a different theater at 1:20. After they came over here and I had to finally evict them @ 5.

Just finished the very satisfying task of throwing out two bags of clothes into the trash can for tomorrow's trash pick-up. I finally realized I'll never swing by a Goodwill so out they go now.

Tonight's decluttering project was supposed to be cleaning out the kitchen "junk" drawer, but I found I couldn't put my laundry away in the closet because it was too full! :eek: How did this happen? So, in the course of 20 minutes (woo-hoo!), I threw out almost 40 pieces of clothing. That's kind of scary that it was so easy for me to identify the stuff that had to go....

Okay, onto the junk drawer which contains at least seven pairs of sunglasses, extra key chains, trinkets and other useless stuff that I can't bear to part with. I both love and hate decluttering, but my acquisitive ways have forced me to it.... :sigh:

Using work time to look for new jobs. Writing emails about how much I hate my current job. Posting this note about how much I hate my current job. (Although this posting is technically on my lunch break and therefore permitted.)

Drinking water, thinking about breakfast. The move to London is looking more and more likely, so I really should be thinking about things like job searching and applying for a visa, but it's all a bit too much work, really...:rolleyes:

Sitting in my Hotel room, should be working - but hey LoT is up and I've missed out the past couple days. Supposed to get an inch or three of snow tonight, you know it's bad when the locals are complaining about the cold. Gotta find a swank dinning spot in walking distance - scoping out spots for future springtime swankings.

Putting Kat's hair in a ponytail...getting her dressed...then driving her to cheerleading practice...where I will sit for 2 hours watching her be thrown around in the air by other girls her age! These girls can't lift a peanut..but they manage to hurl my daughter above their heads with ease.... :eek: this is usually what I look like during most of the practice!

I am procrastinating getting this goddamn legal project done for this attorney who made me do hours and hours of writing and research, only to get mad at me when I presented it to him because it wasn't what he wanted. THEN he goes... oh wait, I guess I didn't tell you about this VERY IMPORTANT FACT that completely changes the nature of the project. Oopsie! GRRRRRRR. OK nuff bitchin.

Tori suggests this place .:D

(The Tic-Tac-Toe pizza sounds intriguing).

Oh yeah, 43 year-old man alone dinning in a restaurant full of mom's and duaghters having tea with their dolls. You know everyone there would peg me for a pederast - I think I'll hit the French place at the Sofietel...;)

Sounds like you might have a swanky solo time.

I do like the solo swank. A half-carafe of wine and thoughts are always good company.

Here's to hoping you find something fun!
