Emmy's

The Emmy's are on tonight. I wonder how they can give them out when television sucked so bad last year because of the strike. It's gonna be a good tv week, I can feel it.

Stalker Moment

I took Thursday and Friday off last week and had some roofing guys come out to give estimates. Luckily, I don't think we are going to need an entire new roof. The guy who came on Friday gave me the heebie jeebies. After he left I wanted to take a shower. When I went downstairs to answer the door, he gave me this starry eyed look and said "WOW!". So, I brought him upstairs to check out the damage and he just kept staring at me, not paying attention to anything I was showing him. We go to the roof, I tell him I will leave him alone to do whatever he needs to do (the other two roofers were here between 45 minutes to an hour), he was here for 15 minutes and told me I needed masonary work, asked me where I worked and what I did and said that he should order catering from our company. Thank God JPMorgan Chase has 5 buildings in the loop.....Good luck creep trying to find me....And then, no shit, 10 minutes after he left I got a call on my cell from him letting me know that if I needed anything at all, don't hesitate to call. Plain strange...I immediately put a "Do Not Answer" on that number, I don't think we will be doing business anytime soon, on the other hand, maybe he would have given us a good discount. ICK!

New Orleans and Other Things

Well, Dylan and I were supposed to go to New Orleans this weekend to build houses for Habitat for Humanity with his company and 2 days ago, the trip was cancelled because of Hurricane Ike. I'm pretty bummed, we had dinner reservations tonight at NOLA and I was looking forward to eating a lot of oysters. So, it's absolutely pouring rain here today, not a very nice day to do much of anything. Last night we were at a friends house drinking Absinthe. I was a little nervous about liking it, but as it turned out, I really enjoyed the whole concept. It has a sexy appeal, reminds me of eating sushi. I've decided to have a holiday party this year..a pot luck cookie exchange on a Sunday afternoon.

Get this..

Remember how last weekend I went to my sister's house to help her organize. Well, on Monday I sent Oprah an email asking her to help as well....and guess what??? On Friday I got an email back from one of her associate producers who read my email and wanted further information. How cool is that? I always thought those emails went into outerspace never to be read. Stay tuned for further details. On current news, Dylan is hanging shelves in our bedroom at the moment so that I can put my crafty stuff on them and get to craftin'. I can't wait to start making a mess in there. It seems everywhere I turn around, women are having babies. Just this week, two of Dylan's co workers both gave birth to little boys. My old roommate Andrea just had a boy at the beginning of August and three of my coworkers are having babies. Something is in the water.

Rain Rain Go Away

It's been raining all day! Nonstop. We have a leaky ceiling and wall, I know this because first I stepped in a puddle and then I looked up. I guess when you own a home it's always something. The holiday completely threw me off this week, I kept thinking today was Wednesday.
