Wha'happened?

I know. A long time between blogs. Too long. Not-even-bothering-to-check-if-there’s- something-new long. I know.

So what has been up? Lots! Mostly work.

Did you know that I have a job? It’s true! Yesterday I spent 14 hours working at that job. The day before? Also 14 hours. But what about Monday? Oh, only about 13 hours. And what about the “weekend”? 5 hours on Sunday and 6 hours on Saturday. A real break. Very refreshing. Today, maybe I have only 10 hours before I can go home. But at least I get a nice fat overtime paycheck, right?

HA!

So what I’m saying is that I’m freaking tired. Here are the highlights since my last post, as near as I can reckon through the blinding fatigue:

• We got a new car. An ’03 Corolla. Very exciting. Last night I fell asleep in it at the Price Chopper parking lot. It is nice.
• Congratulations are in order for Marty Cohen, I believe. Now the only question is whether to address her as “Dr. Cohen” or “Marty Cohen Comma PhD”. Yay!
• Dan is getting older this week. Woo Dan! In honor of his becoming a man, we are going to NYC to see a Yankees game and visit BadPie and her guy there, what’s-his-face. Dan has never been to the ol’ big apple. He partially blames this on being from Buffalo, when in fact his sister, who is also from Buffalo and I believe still resides there, pops down to New York like ninety times a year. It is truly a paradox.
• It is track season here in Saratoga Springs. For those of you not familiar with this, it is kind of like a plague of locusts, only instead of insects the town is overrun with Very Rich People for six weeks. Yesterday Dan saw a Lamborghini Diablo. Parked. On the Street. Parked on the street! That is so wrong. Also, the prices at all restaurants go up like 25%. But it is fun to go to the track, because they let poor people in, too, and you can sit at a picnic table with a cooler and make $2 bets on Papa’s Delicate Condition and If Mandy Patinkin Were a Horse. Or pretend that you are in a movie about horses, because every movie about horses from the last twenty years was shot there.

Anyway, there’s the highlights. Tonight I am going to watch Project Runway, which hopefully I recorded. And then sleep sleep sleep. Tomorrow, I swear, I’m only putting in eight hours. Screw the Man! Eight hours I say!
