taerowynNot that I really went anywhere other than not to this journal. I've just been very busy recently and at the same time haven't had much to blather on about. But it's a nice Saturday night and, although I should go to bed, I feel like typing instead.
First off, the end to my tedium and bottomed out bank account has finally arrived in the form of a job (and there was much rejoicing...yeah!). I am an executive assistant which is just about as much fun as it sounds. But the people are great and the environment is laid back and, hell, I need the money.
Went to the wedding of a close friend about two weeks ago. The first of my high school cronies to get married. It was quite surreal. It was also the coolest wedding I've been to despite the fact that the priest said the phrase "Chrisitian marriage" at LEAST 40 times in a thirty minute ceremony. What was so neat about it was that it was very laidback. Yes it was in a church and religious and followed the norms, but also their parents got up and said a few words, shared some amusing stories and c'mon the priest STARTED the vow taking with "Maywige...Maywige is what bwings us togetha tooooday."
Hmmmm, what else to ramble on about. WEll I suppose in penance for being gone so long I can share some amusing (and some disturbing) things I have learned in my absence. For instance, somewhere, someone decided that cell phones were not enough of a distraction to drivers. And, just in case we haven't messed up the environment enough, let's see if we can get some REALLY good droughts going. Or how about something new for Schwa's What The Hell Did You Just Put In Your Mouth series, mac&cheese pop? And I can't find it now, but I do recall reading about a new level of laziness...integrating fibers that shrink at high temperatures into shirt sleeves so YOU never have to roll up your sleeves because when it gets hot they get shorter themselves. Yes folks, this is the height of science and technology today. What can we invent next?
