buzz-worthy  ::

My lunch salad was bigger than my Russell Wright salad plate, there is a Five Guys opening seven blocks from our apartment, and I have a secret that I've sworn not to share. In other words, my mind is buzzing with a week's worth of buzz-worthy items.

There were drinks and dinner with Matt, Denise, and Laine on Tuesday (who knew Tuesdays could get so late... or so verbal). Wednesday brought incredibly good, secret news that made me squeal in the same high-pitched tones usually reserved for puppies or kitties or an advertisement for that new Two Brothers movie with hyperventilatingly-cute lion cubs (more KITTIES). Yesterday I fell in HATE with the prescription coverage branch of my health insurance company, I ate WAY too many nuts, and then we climbed into bed at 9:06pm, like we hadn't done since we were eight. And then today, I was more productive than I have been all week, B took the bus to Georgetown and discovered the pending Five Guys installment, some members of my family went to a Kerry rally at my old high school gymnasium in "down-and-out" Stark County, Ohio [says CNN], and I had the most amazing spinach-pear-cranberry-pistachio-blue cheese salad for lunch.

So not exactly news-worthy, especially the salad part. But I'm going to pretend it's buzz-worthy. At least until I have more time to get my buzz-on and write about it.

 
 
 
in my ears  ::
it was Boards of Canada... and then a whole mix thing that B was controlling... but now it's nothing because he hates his PC and wants to buy a Mac

on my mind  ::

making dinner plans; wondering how Stark County got so down-and-out; the need to pick a candidate to support in November; nuts (left-over from last night)

 
in my kitchen  ::

a much-needed and well-deserved Pimm's Cup

 
on my wish list  ::

a hair cut; Two Brothers; anything but this incredibly depressing dull, gray Friday weather

 
in my immediate future  ::

a shower and that Pimm's Cup, possibly at the same time
