ten things I’m wondering today.
1. Just how bananas I’d look if the paparazzi followed ME around all day long.
2. If moms should transition to “BFF” status before their kids turn 25.
3. Why someone isn’t following me around with a tray of pastries. And also? Why I nearly typed “pasties” there.
4. If eating salsa at 10 pm was part of the reason I didn’t sleep for longer than half an hour last night.
5. Why, for the thousandth time in a row, the sun is emerging on Monday after a crappy weather weekend.
6. How to be honest about frustration without resorting to crabbiness.
7. If I have time this week to bring sexy back.
8. How one actually gets up the gumption to redecorate… and I don’t just mean ripping out pages from magazines and going, “And that colour paint… and those pillows….”
9. Why a shirt I hate can go stainless for years, but a shirt I love seems to pull dirt out of thin air.
10. If I will ever stop cringing at the term “skinny jeans.”

Hahah. Excellent. Skinny jeans make everyone who wears them walk funnily! Like they can’t quite get it right. I definitely feel you on the shirt thing. Have a great day Meg!

Awesome list. And sorry that you didn’t sleep! And I think you already have brought sexy back my friend. And my brand new white tank top just did that dirt out of thin air thing. Sigh. Sucky.

The back of my knees itches just thinking about skinny jeans, which I last wore when I was 95 pounds. I miss 6th grade.
I have to reverse the name in my head: Skinny jeans to Jinny skeins. Suddenly there’s a comfortable white-haired grandma type who spins her own yarn. Much better than back-knee itch.
I am crazy, no?

If I am going anyplace where someone will even give a second thought to what I look like, I am guaranteed to dribble coffee from a faulty seal on my coffee cup. Doesn’t matter if I stick my chin way out. It will dribble down my chin, down my neck, to my shirt. Whatever it takes. The coffee gods are diabolical. Is it because I drink decaf?
On a more serious note. Sleep is important. If I was your keeper, it would be the #1 priority. No sleep equals no healing.

Well, I’ve not had a keeper since I was 18ish, but they tried my whole life to make me stay down. It’s what we call a losing battle. :-)

Oh, crap. You mean tearing out those pages didn’t count as redecorating? Because, honestly, it took so much effort to tear them out.
Anyway, I *DO* need a try full of pasties. Or at least a couple packages of them.

You’ve brought sexy back with a vengeance. What are you going to do with the other six days, 23 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds this week?

Shuffleboard?

I think if you don’t cringe when you think about skinny jeans, there is something SERIOUSLY wrong with you! *shudder*
