"Yes, I know exactly what that is.."

- me, in reference to the Ryder Cup on my conference call this morning...as I googled it and figured it out. How am I supposed to know? I dont golf. I've tried. It's not pretty. Whatever.

I'm tired today. I had to get up a little earlier than normal..not even a ton..but my brain operates in "it's Saturday" mode on most Mondays. I have my alarm set to LOUD country music..and it still doesnt help. I think I need Clocky but do you know how PISSED I would be after getting that damn thing? I'd be awake..but man.. I wouldnt even want to talk to me...

Anyway, I cant sleep lately.. like AT ALL. I just toss around, kick the covers off, put them back on, get a glass of water, repeat the process...Blah!

I'm about as exciting as a gnat today so sorry for boring you.. I got nuthin.

I darkened my hair. It's a HUGE difference to me, but most people dont seem to notice. I think this pisses me off. I'll let you know for sure.

This time next week, I'll be in New Orleans. My plane leaves on Monday morning at 6am. Yeah, as in flies into the friendly skies at 6 f*cking a.m. I can tell you who WONT be in a great mood. haha!

This weekend was good. I need an intervention, though. I think my alcohol consumption and wee hours arrival back home are going to take their toll eventually. I'm not that into looking like I've been ridden hard and put away wet, so I think I'm ready to chill out. I go through waves...

To stay with the randomness, the bar takers start tomorrow! Say a little prayer for all of them-esp the boyfriend.

Okay.. here's a brief rant... Wanna know something? I HATE that a few..(a great deal) of people I encountered in law school have made me jaded, untrusting, and basically cynical about human beings. I sometimes (often) dont realize I'm like that...until I encounter someone who is OBVIOUSLY not "out to get something" and I question whether they are. And the questions I ask myself are proposterous! You'd be like "um...where did you get THAT idea?" I guess law school raised my personal expectations that I want in friends, significant others, etc, BUT it also lowered my expectations for what's actually out there.

For example, I know...for a fact..that I was a bet among a few guys in law school when G.M. and I split.. a BET...to get me in bed. Really? That's classy. (no one won the bet... except me..haha) :) Combine that with the serial adultery (it's incestual actually) that goes on in law school and you get a little jaded. And I'm not just talking dating here. I'm not some martyr...by any means... I guess it's just there's a part of me that likes to think people are genuinely good. It's sad that law school has kinda made me believe otherwise in a lot of regards.

Anyway, when some of the groups from law school are out and about, I'm just reminded that I'm blessed with very good friends (quite a few derived from law school, I might add. I think us "good ones" stand out..haha). I'm also lucky that I found the boyfriend in a sea of crazies making bets to hook up. It's just weird that I feel like the majority of people I met in college are good.people. whereas the majority of people I met in law school..well..at least half...I wouldnt trust at all...

Rant done. Sorry for the randomness! Hope you're having an outstanding Monday!

it still looked quite blond to me, but i loved the shade. so pretty! ;) fabu to hang out with you although after i went over to brooke's and then left by nine, i was like, "okay? what to do?" nobody wanted to hang b/c of work in the morning (i get that, i do... kinda) and the whole town was shut down anyway. it was sad. fortunately tonite i am going out with college students and having fun. because apparently if you aren't having babies at my advanced age, you have to hang out with college students. ;) just kidding. call me if you want to play, i'm here till thursday. xoxo.

How do you know A wasn't in on the bet? ; )

I hear you on the intervention front. I have ONE crazy night and I pay for it so much. Where did the days of waking up perfectly normal go? It's been two DAYS and I'm still not right. Ugh.
