...still waiting on the Friday Five...

...and I'll post it as soon as I see it, or I'll post some derivative column that's related to it... but in the meantime, I found a random inspiration site, and I'm going to muse on a couple of the things I found there...
As per usual, the taxes were done at the last minute. So to the last minute that it was an extension with a check and DH will whittle away at them a little more later on. No one wanted to go on the annual trek to the post office. The thing that really gets me is this: it could have been worse. That completely scares me.
I haven't eaten anything today other than a chocolate doughnut that someone just placed in front of me, and some green tea. I did say that I was going to have a Claritin earlier, and I still need one, but I'm holding off. Those things usually last for 48-72 hours for me instead of the usual 24, but I want to make doubly sure that I can make it through tomorrow without needing one.
Tomorrow is a stitching get-together. I'm going. We'll see if anyone has any issues with me being there when I get there, since there was at least one person who wasn't happy with me over the April Fool's Joke. Hopefully all will be well. I might even pack up the RR in question and bring it with me to show off.
I'm on workout #97 at Curves. 3 more and I get a t-shirt. It's not going to be Wednesday that I make #100 though. DH has to drop his sister and her family at the airport tomorrow morning, and I suspect that he's not going to be back before I want to jet off to the gym before the GTG. It's ok though. I'll still make #100 next week, and get my Curves shirt.
I'm taking the kids to see Ella Enchanted today. I found out when I checked the listing that it's PG rated, and went to investigate it on one of those kid-safe ratings sites. Boy, they're so coldly technical about what's in the film that it makes your skin crawl. I had DH read it because I was a little concerned about taking the kids to see it, but his response was priceless (I'm paraphrasing because I don't recall the exact words):

It's got ogre butts in it. If it's got ogre butts in it, it's a must-see.

That's DH for ya. Gotta love him.
The more I hear about a certain individual and the things she's pulled, the more I wonder how her moral, ethical and psychological wiring got so screwed up. *shakes head* As DH said, she should find a guy she deserves. I agree. She should find someone just like her instead of the one that she's trying to screw over because, honestly, he's waaaaay too good for her. And as I recently added to my sig line: People are entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privledge.
Well, that's about it for now. I'll update when I get an alert that the Friday Five is up, or I'll just have to find a suitable substitute...

...and if I don't, then have a great weekend.
