Too busy to blog!

Not that I have so much to say anyway -- but I'm really slackin'. Been busy busy busy at work, and busy at home. So much to do! And for some reason if I don't write down every last thing I have to do, it will not get done! I was never this way before. But now, my memory lasts all of 60 seconds. In fact, that might be generous. 30 seconds. What is wrong with me? Maybe I need to start doing crossword puzzles.

It's hot as hell here and it makes me want to hole up in the house. And I pretty much have.

I just made some pasta that had a little kick to it, so I've now got internal and external forces trying to make me sweat. But it was yummy. I love the shells w/a meat sauce. Mmmmmm. Garlic bread to top it off. Yum. Washing it down w/a beer. Perfection.

What else? Not much. We went bowling this weekend. I'm hitting my average pretty regularly, but I have had a few bad games. I think I bowled a 141 in one of my games, though, and a 127 in another. We won't mention what I got in the first game!

We went out to the lake with one of the husband's friends on Saturday -- he has a boat and this was his first outing this year. Unfortunately, even though they spent hours getting it ready for its maiden voyage of the season, the boat started overheating as soon as it was launched. Had to float it for a while and bring it back in. Turned out there was a part that was cracked and so the lake water wasn't making it to the engine to keep it cool. Foiled. Bummer.

Other than that, it's been mostly about work and keeping the house up -- same ol', same ol'.

I'm meeting up with my best friend for drinks tomorrow so we can catch up, and on Saturday I'm going with her for her fitting for her wedding dress. And a week from Friday is her shower. I guess I'd better get my poop in a group if I'm gonna be responsible for that! We've got the place, the date, the invites all taken care of. The games will be minimal (not even games really) and are taken care of. Just need to order a cake and get some decorations and such. Now, if some of the guests would just R.S.V.P. Is it just me, or do people seem to think R.S.V.P. means "go ahead and just show up -- or not?" So annoying. I'm not above calling these people and letting them know I'm putting them down as a "no" since I haven't heard from them. I'll do it!

Anyway, this is probably as boring to read as it is to write so I'll sign off. Ciao.

I can't believe your friend is ready to get married. It seems like yesterday when she asked you to help her. I tried RSVPing to a shower today and there wasn't even an answering machine. How am I supposed to let you know whether I'll be there or not. *sigh*

Your pasta sounds yummy!!
