Today started like this:

And didnt get any better.

I'm headed to the bath, to try and soak the dumb-ness of today away.

love love love.
(and bubbles)

Listy Listy List-ish...

If you didnt know this about me yet, I love lists. And list making. I find it helps me to be both creative and organized at the same time. (i am so effecient)

1. This past weekend my Aunt Maryan and Uncle Otis were in town to celebrate my brother and my graduations. They are some of the most interesting and generous people I know, and I am so blessed to have them in my life. Thursday night we all went to dinner at the Pointe Tapatio, a restaurant called A Different Pointe of View. It's spectacular food, and my Uncle has the best taste in wine. mmmm (The vanilla bean creme bruelle bears mentioning=yumm)

2. Shopping Friday morning (early)with Shonda and my Aunt for "interview outfits." I can now show up to an interview looking like business appropriate hotness.

3. Which in fact, is what I had to do today, as I had an interview for an exciting position with an agency that does social work with families along with CPS here in the city. The interview went well, and I already know someone who works there, so I'm hopeful about it. There's room for movement eventually, and they have a good foster program that I would like to be involved with eventually.

4. I started painting yesterday. Bought some canvas and basic paints and brushes. Came home and started what Spencer calls "The Mist." I think its going to be a water scene, maybe a faint ghosty pirate ship...hard to say. I'll post photos when its done.

5. Spencer is a serious trooper. I was in the worst mood yesterday, and he endured without even a grumble. He's a keeper. (-:

Alright, love love love.
(thats the best kind of list)

Inventions

I just saw a commercial for a "brand new hand soap device". This new modification on the old way of pumping soap into you hand now allows you to get soap pumped directly into your hand-hands free. The selling point during the whole commercial is that this new "hands free" way cuts down on all those nasty germs just lurking on the soap dispenser. Now you dont have to actually touch the soap dispenser, cause LORD knows, you dont want all those germs on your hands all day.

There's just one problem with that-RIGHT after you touch the soap pump, YOU WASH YOUR HANDS.

Meaning you wash off all (or most) of those germs.

The fact that this product made it all the way through marketing to commercials just proves that people will buy anything.
