Writing Wrongs

April 07, 2006

So, is everyone else still suffering from daylight saving time, or is it just me? It�s been a long week. A really long week. I�m looking forward to what Kyra calls �a long day at home� after such a long week. It hasn�t been bad, just long.

In fact, you know it�s been a long week, when:

You�re a little too excited about afternoon popcorn duty at work. Oh, the responsibility of being a fulltime employee.

Your three-year-old wants to attach her Little Tike chair to her Little Tike car, with scotch tape (so baby can come along), and it looks like a reasonable idea to you.

Spam makes an appearance on your dinner table. And you like it.

You misread the headline as: Bush picks Pontius Pilate as FEMA chief. (What? You think that couldn�t happen?)

You get a kick walking through the skyway to your new contract parking spot because it�s raining and you stay dry.

The green tea latte at Starbucks doesn�t seem as misguided a notion as it did last week.

You order a green tea latte at Starbucks.

You live to regret it.

You decide to go with the coffee instead.

The extra caffeine still doesn�t help. As noted: when on afternoon popcorn duty, remember to turn on the kettle motor. Otherwise, you�ll need to find a place to hide the evidence.
