Ha...

I had to chuckle tonight. I was catching up with old Daily Show episodes that had been saved on my Tivo, and watched the episode from the day after the Oscars.

Jon Stewart's 'Moment of Zen' was Hugh Jackman's momentary lap-dance for Barbara Walters.

You heard it here first.

Are the End Times Near?

I just saw Hugh Jackman give Barbara Walters the tiniest bit of a lap dance just now in her pre-Oscars show.

It will take a few weeks to get that out of my head, I'm afraid. Yikes.

Slogging through

It's been interesting around these parts lately.

Work has been hopping lately. Standardized testing will commence shortly, so the reviewing has begun. Behaviors have popped up as a result. I cannot allow mutiny-- so it should be interesting.

Mark has been sick. He has been at home with bronchitis since Thursday. DH has been taking leave, since he has months of sick leave. (I consider it fair-- I have to take off when he's away, and he has gobs more sick leave then I do.) We now own a nebulizer. For those of you not in the know, it turns the steriod medication into an inhaled vapor to open up the clogged airways. Which leads me to my rant.

DH's mom and aunt arrived in town on Thursday night. I administered two nebulizer doses that night, and then DH was responsible on Friday as he stayed home. He didn't do any until I chewed DH out around 11 am. And this is with his mother, the nurse, and his aunt, mother of eleven kids, in the house. His mom then stuck up for him when I let my displeasure known on Friday night. Uh, excuse me, but four doses means four doses. (The excuse? Mark didn't want to do a breathing treatment. I can't tell you how many times I've heard this excuse at school, so my pissy factor kicks in pretty quickly every time I hear it. Who is the parent, after all?)

But the in-laws are gone now. Ahhh, where's the wine?

Crafty

The stamping/crafting bug is biting me. It's also helping me to get drawn into the ebay web again. I used ebay quite a while ago-- back in the day when I was newly married and, as they say nearby, po'.

Now I see that ebay has changed. Granted, I've gotten a few bargains. (Clothing bargains.) However, I'm going back and getting retired stamping supplies. And, uh, I am getting in bidding wars rather than finding bargains. Oh, and due to my disorganization, I am discovering that I have been bidding on supplies that I already own.

I'm thinking about cranking out some cards to sell at a craft sale. Perhaps I can justify my collection if I sell something. ;)
