Stop. Blogger time.
July 4, 2007
Yes. I am as lame as my title to this blog suggests. I just realized that my friend Kelli has posted to her blog, and that I have been neglecting mine, and that if I want to keep the blogging dream alive, I had better write something. Problem is, I can’t think of anything to write about, really. On a daily basis, dozens of things occur that make me think, “Ooh…I should write about that on my blog when I get home tonight.” But unfortunately, by the time I get home and have access to write, I either a.) have forgotten all the interesting things I noted throughout the day, or b.) am too tired of sitting in front of a computer all day to want to do it some more. So then I neglect poor blog, and poor blog starts to cry, and although that ought to make me feel sympathy for poor blog, it actually just makes me resent it, and then I neglect crying blog even further. And that’s why I probably shouldn’t have children.
Here’s a smattering of things that filled my day today. On the way to work, I heard about Bush commuting Scooter Libby’s sentence, and it pissed me off, and made me scowl even harder at the image of GW in my head. But by the time I drove home, I had heard so much about it, I started to think, why does this even surprise me? I mean, did I ever think Libby was going to jail anyway? Did I think his cronies would let him hang? I don’t even know why it’s lasted so long in the news. I mean, didn’t we all see this coming.
And also, today I had my lunch thoroughly inspected by Dr. B, who has returned from his vacation to a health spa, and has now taken it upon himself to evaluate the nutritional value of all things I consume. He’s very concerned about sodium. And the carcinogens in grilled meats. (Not that I was grilling meat for lunch today, but the 4th is coming up and all.) And he told me I shouldn’t eat my Campbell’s soup. Jerk.
And the best part of my day? I made this AWESOME jello salad called Jello Dreamsicle Salad, and it is every thing its name implies and more. It tastes like a creamsicle, but because I pay attention to things like this these days, it is very low in fat and calories, full of fruit (oranges and pineapple!), and it is awesome. Go me!
