I meant to write something today. It’s amazing how much stress can corrode your brain until there’s nothing left but the ability to sit on the couch and watch numbing tv.

Mom and Dad are out of India and Nepal or where ever else it was they were supposed to be the last couple of weeks. They’re in Amsterdam, most likely looking for clean water and toilets you sit on. Then it’s off to Poland for them. I’m jealous, if I didn’t have this show to do in a couple of weeks, I would have gone too. Next time.

We can be Heroes

Cale and I talk about Heroes and Lost every week. It’s part of our morning rituals.

Heroes had its season finale this past Monday and Lost’s is tonight last night. I’m wondering what the next show in line for our morning chat will be. I’m going to put my vote in right now for “So you think you can dance?” Last year I got sucked into that show what with it’s crazy legs and cute boys flirting with … well everyone on stage. It was a beautiful thing.

I think I had a lot more to say, but I can’t remember now.

So instead, watch this. It’s pretty.

I’ll take ‘is this week done yet’ for the win please Alex.

There’s something to be said for being a low level hack at a job. All you really need to do is be on time and do what you’re told. Truth be told there’s a certain kind of peace to a job like that.

And by peace I mean no stress.

Mom, at the peek of her worst days, would email me the temp secretary positions out of the online help wanted ads and ask me if I thought they would mind her doing her nails while she answered the phone.

I kept telling her she’d lose her mind to boredom in a week. But maybe now I’m starting to see the lure of just showing up.

Now I’m off to figure out how to make this thing look pretty. Wish me luck.
