A recap in bullet points

Since my last post I...

• Fell down the stairs of my apartment and scored a nice bruise on my ass
• Tried on many, many pairs of sunglasses and have determined my appearance at various times to be that of:
  • A large, unhappy insect
  • Someone who should be holding a snorkel
  • Headlights on a European car
  • Headlights on a mid-80s vehicle
  • An apartment building who needs to hire a window washer
• Have eaten one pear towards my five-a-day fruits and veggies
• Purchased two pairs of earrings, one cool gold stars and one  tiny silver baubbles
• Shed large crocodile tears over the distance to my nearest Target
• Finally settled on a pair of sunglasses at Kenneth Cole. I don't love them, but I have eight hours of driving tomorrow and I need to wear sunglasses so my retinas aren't seared on the open road
• Watched the episode of Friends where they're at the beach house and Ross and Rachel get back together
• Perhaps shed a tear over the lack of good TV and the dearth of crappy reality shows these days
• Perhaps shed a tear that I really do consider Friends good, quality television BUT IT IS
• Have read way too much about the pregnant man story
• Considered running a background check on someone I know
• Forgotten that I'm going out of town this weekend, next weekend and the weekend after that multiple times.
• Sent three long, involved e-mails to my aunt in Mexico. It's a tradition that started when she was a volunteer counselor at summer camp a few years ago where she wanted me to e-mail her every day. She became addicted
• Have tried on many, many dresses in a futile attempt to be fashionable and at various times determined that I looked like:
  • An oompa loompa with an unfortunate sense of style
  • My breasts extended from wrist to wrist
  • I was 18.65 months pregnant

I want you to know that I'll be visiting Bend on Friday next week, which is where the pregnant man lives. I'll be on the look out.

HA! My mom is over at my house and put on that same episode of Friends!!

Okay, I am totally with you on the dresses now making one look pregnant. Why is maternity suddenly the fashion?

[Kristabella]

I love Friends. I will watch every episode over and over. Like yesterday the one where Rachel dated Russ, who looked and talked just like Ross.

And also, I have given up all attempts to be fashionable.

That's quite a bit of stuff in a not-too-long period of time! (Or maybe my days would seem like that too, if I took the time to document everything?) :)

I love Friends, too. I love that the re-runs are on three different channels here.

I fell on my basement stairs last week and bruised my hiney, too.

Enjoy your trip!

Sunglass selection is tragic! Last year I finally found a pair that I LOVE... but they slip down my nose all the time. Sigh.
