tonight i will host my first book club ever. i'm so geeked out excited about it. worried a little too. i still have to clean at home. i only received the book on monday. have read enough to tear into the author a bit--we're reading hard green: saving the environment from the environmentalists, in an effort to get out our post-election frustrations. i know no one.
right now i'm sweating the whole affair given that my attention span is at an all-time low. i've got work to do, and i'm doing my best to do it, but in-between work today i've:
1. looked at my coworker's website and subsequent portfolio. then spent a good five minutes trying to determine if her girlfriend's eyes were too far apart.
2. googled another coworker. only to find four entries. one of which reveals (here i did some math) that he is 40. and that he was some revolutionary or something.
3. laughed a lot.
4. took a lunch and saw a box of marshal field's frango mints that were so large i thought they just had to be for display purposes only. no. they were real and $400. "honey i love you so much i want you to be fat forever." 5. researched recipes on the food network website as i'm making a fancy dinner tomorrow night. 6. googled nuprin. it's listed as a dying brand that's coming back according to this week's cranes. indeed, their slogan is/was little. yellow. different. googled that too. found out the top result is a blog of a gay american born chinese dude. funny stuff.
7. realized that sometimes you can know a person for a good while before you realize you don't know their last name.
8. talked to chris. we decided we are smart people. and that we, or i'll speak for myself, i need to procreate at some point. even though i sort of believe there are too many people in this world (this is all started btw as i found out my friend from high school is pregnant and this set me off) that are dumb and procreating. so i think some of my DNA needs to get out there and kick some ass. at some point. but not now.
9. my coworker is a grandma. again. but she's not dumb. so i'm assuming her kids aren't either. she put out the babies skin color as a PMS color. i thought that was clever. i looked that up too.
10. am still thinking about the fact that if we can't figure out a mathematical equation to predict the past then we'll never be able to predict the future. huh.
ok. work calls. and so does procrastination.
