I'm wearing heels for the first time since I was too pregnant to wear them. I'm regretting the choice this morning. I know it will get easier and maybe the shoes themselves were the poor choice, but it's 9:45 and MY FEET HURT. I've just have to push through until my feet remember how awesome heels are.

I learned last night just how inept my husband is in the kitchen. I asked him to help me prepare dinner so I could get out the door in time for a 6:30 class at the gym.
He was responsible for boiling the Orzo and broiling the fish.
1. He cooked the orzo like rice instead of the pasta that it is. I was a big clump of stuck together with no water left in the pan when he was done (I had to do over). And this is after me telling him to cook it just like pasta only for a shorter time because it is small. It would have been nice if he actually listened to me the 5 times I said it.
2. Instead of broiling the salmon he baked it a 350 degrees and it wasn't ready in time.
I told him that he has been spoiled by me for too long and from now on to re-aquaint him with the workings of the kitchen, he will be responsible for cooking dinner one night a week.

Frustrating! (But it made me laugh... especially after that photo posted earlier this week of the half-peeled potatoes!)
Luckily MH is the main cook in our family.

I bought HP lego yesterday. I went into a kids store hoping for sleepers. They didn't have any but the did have the Forbidden Forest. Sold!
Also, my eldest cat (the gray one) LOVES the fishies app I put on my kindle. He can watch for minutes on end.
A co-worker keeps coming in my office, taking a tissue, and then running out with a devious smile on her face. I'm slapping her hand the next time it happens.
Last time I said to her, "The tissues are bought by the company and in the closet, why don't you go get your own box?" If that doesn't do the trick, I am slapping her hand.
OMG!!! I bet I can guess who it was!
I'm sorry
Because thanksgiving falls so late in November this year, I get to decorate a few days early. Everything but the tree.
This makes me stupid happy.
He's not a fan of decorating at all and it's usually such a struggle to get him to even discuss it, but I know he just wants to make me as happy as possible this year.
But I get why he hates it. He works on The Nutcracker every year and is pretty Christmased out by Thanksgiving.
My phone autocorrected to Buttcracker.
That was a lot of randoms.

"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”

I felt that way about earrings after going back to work. I think the holes were starting to close after not wearing earrings everyday for a couple of months. It hurt to put more than a light post in!

My officemate is going to Ireland next week. I just drew her a picture of a 4 leaf clover on a post it for her to see when she gets in the office.
It's "chilly" for the first time today, and I just want to go home and snuggle up with my dogs and a book. And a pumpkin spiced latte (even though I just learned how bad they really are.)
