Under a cut because I have no ability to size pictures at home.

[livejournal.com profile] small_town, I thought of you. *g* That's Ron Fellows! The guy whose son you taught swimming I think?

Vacation Time

Time management skills seem to go out the window an extra amount when I'm on "vacation". Granted, today is the first day of "days where you're supposed to be productive so you can slack later in the week". So I just slacked for today instead of later. (See, there's this whole philosophy - if I'm productive early, then I can do fun things later. Instead of putting of fun and productive and then just don't productive later.)

Today I slept until 8 (that's late for me), lounged until 11, took a shower, made a list, put on clothes...and realized it was noon, not the best time to go to Wal-Mart. Except if I put off going, I'd not go at all. So I went and had lunch with mom, then hit Wal-Mart for an oil change and $50 worth of cleaning supplies. (In my defense, I ran out of everything at once. I was even out of Klorox.) Then it was the grocery store and home in time to proofread a document for work (I know, this is supposed to be a vacation).

And now it's just about three, I need to check work email one more time, and then I'm lounging (as it's freaking hot) and making lists for the rest of the days. I may clean later when it's cooled down some.

Jessica Simpson's Country Deal

You know, I think country suits her voice much better. She can power through things and not try and sound sexy, which is just much more natural for her voice.

That said, her country career will get nowhere if someone doesn't wrench Papa Joe away from the controls. Damn, people. That video that goes with the song? Utter. Mess. It's so fake and planned. Not organic and fun. The song is upbeat and they have her posing stupidly on a sink? Oy.

The Mikey and Chad Hour

You know an episode of This Week In NASCAR is going to be fun when it starts with Mikey referring to his shrink and Chad referring to Mikey as having multiple personalities (but only two).

Also, the swiffer shall be featured. Yay!

And...Mikey's in a mood which means Steve Byrnes suggest hugging it out. Chad is either vaguely horrified or really horrified. (We love horrified Chad.)

Mikey: When I think of Steak-ummm burgers, I think of Mark Martin.
Chad: No you don't. That man has never had a burger in his life.
Me: No, he just looks like one.

Mikey: Next time you have a point like that, could you condense that a little bit? That was painful. There was a whole lot of stuff going on there. My brain's not that refined. (Chad) lost me at "Let me explain something to you."

More Procrastination Techniques

Hey look! Shiny! (This is me procrastinating. I need to make lists. And straighten. I at least got the kitchen straightened. But I need to work on the rest of the apartment so tomorrow I can do the closets and really get into the cleaning.)
