Bouncy Things

Well, good morning dear readers!

I got to work unnaturally early this morning but am actually awake.   There’s a reason for this.  Is there a difference between really really liking coffee and being addicted to it?  Because I am on cup #4 right now but I never thought I was addicted, just someone who’s always thought it was really, really yummy.  If I were addicted, it wouldn’t give me a buzz, right?  Or, at the very least, take more to give me a buzz?  That’s going to be my theory so I don’t have to stop drinking it  (yes, it still gives me that pleasant face-the-day kind of buzz).

Me, at my desk this morning shortly after 7am and on cup #3:

The commute to work made me think of the commute the other day.  Did anyone hear about the poor truck that lost toilet paper all over I-285 on Monday?  I had heard the traffic report that morning saying these things were bouncing all over the interestate near Ashford-Dunwoody, but I never caught whether it was east bound or west bound.  On the way home, I figured it out.  :-)  There were rolls and rolls of toilet paper still all up along the median wall and way over in the right lane/shoulder.   And for some reason it just still simply Cracks. Me. Up.  Just the mental images of single rolls bouncing around between cars, off windshields, maybe landing in a flatbed or two… I dunno.  It’s FUNNY.

So last night, we DID make use of the cleaned-up deck by eating outside.

P1 decided to cook up his yummy black bean lasagna roll-ups and  P2 and another friend Tory (who I’m not sure has a blog?) came by for dinner.   Most outstanding and my compliments to the chef.  More important last night is that P2 will finally be able to wash his hair again, as he finally has managed to collect the things he left at our place, including his new bottle of shampoo, oh…. months ago now?  (okay, I exaggerate: A month ago.  But still, not washing your hair in a month is pretty gross.)  ;-)
 

Speaking of hair, with the new season comes a new change in color again, of course!  I’ve settled back with my good ol’ standby from years gone by: Rosewood.  It’s obnoxious.  It’s this reddish brown that’s not really found in nature…but the obnoxious part only sticks around for a few days, is really only obviously obnoxious in the sun, and then after a few days it’ll look good.  Really.   The photo above was an attempt to get a picture of the new color but the lighting in the office is so bad (not to mention it’s from the camera phone) that, eh, not so much…

Okay, kids, off to really start the day now — MWAH! Good ones to ya all!
