random facts/thoughts

some things that i'm thinking about these days:

• i have to get a f**king root canal. what the hell? i thought old people were the only ones who got those.

• i really want to take a trip...but flights are insanely expensive.

• we got a new roof on our house...beats the shloppy looking roof that we had! and insurance covers most of it! even better. the company was kinda a hassle to work with, but in the end, it's done.

• i wish insurance would cover all the other projects we have to do. it'd be great to not have tarp on our sunporch windows this winter, but i'm sure we will...can't afford those windows yet.

• i have less than 4 months to meet my fitness goals i set for myself this year. i better get to it.

• griffin will not watch anything except diego and dora these days. bleh! super annoying. although the "rescue pack" diego song has been in my head nonstop and it's kinda catchy.

• do we throw away all the skid-stained undies or wash them? (griffins, not dans)

• how do we get g to eat more fruits and veggies? and how is this boy so picky??

• 26 miles on blades tomorrow a.m. seems like not that much fun anymore...i love how i commit to things like this.

• 2 weeks until duathalon...crap. this will be interesting.

• the 90210 revival was a bit weak. joe e tata looked foxy though.

• i remember when we made up the joe e tata lyrics to hukuna matada. those were in some of our classier days...

• speaking of those days..we need to go bowling at elsies again. that was good stuff.

• i wish all weeks were 4-day work weeks.

• i wish i knew some single guys.

• not for me...for dan. i mean for friends. i know a lot of cute and cool single girls, but not that many single dudes.

• are there way more girls than boys in this world? my mom is teaching a class with 13 girls and 6 boys. (or something skewed like that) and another friend has a kid in kindergarten with 14 girls and 4 boys.

• fun shows coming up in the next few months...mason jennings, liz phair, neko case, hold steady/drive by truckers.

• my first concert (that wasn't with my parents) was heart. ooooh, baracuda! i think my first concert with my parents was beach boys or eagles or somethin like that.
