Break From Prison Break

And not by choice, I might add. If you remember this post, you will remember me telling you little bit about my addiction to Prison Break. Selo and I finished the last disk on Season Two last week. But the third season won't be available on DVD until August! Ahhh! We have to wait a whole two weeks! *deep breath* I told you I was in it deep. I love them. The story has changed so much since the first one. I have seen characters I love taken off the show, and others that I have really wondered about added to the show. I guess I will just have to wait. Not like I have any other choice, right?

Team Hess

I love blogging. But more than that, I love meeting completely awesome people and becoming great friends with them. And then learning that they also love blogging!

Say hello to Team Hess. Greg and Lera are new friends of Selo and I. Greg and Selo work together, and we went over to their house Friday night for dinner. (It was fantastic! Lera is a great cook!) We immediately hit it off. As Selo and Greg were in his office playing around on the base, Lera and I were in the front room talking all the wonderful books on her bookshelf.

And here is their blog. Team Hess They both right in it, so you will get updates from both. Plus, you've got to check out this awesome post, written by Greg himself. Go Palmer!

Greg and Selo are going to start a band- and Palmer will probably join as soon as he can hold the guitar- while Lera and I curl up with some books. It's a friendship made in heaven.

PS When are you guys coming to our house for dinner???

Another Good Mark for The Blair Switch Project.

As I am going through my weekly routine of catching up on blogs, I stopped longer than usual at The Blair Switch Project. I love reading this blog. Intelligent, good writing, and plenty of thought goes in his posts. He is an excellent writer, and I enjoy it immensely.

Take his post about Ties. What a good point he makes! As we see customer service slipping away, I have to wonder what causes it. And I must admit, dress code is a big one. They say you can hear when someone has a smile on their face. Look better, act better, they say. Well, once again, thanks to Nathan, I agree all over again.

Now, moving on, check out what he wrote about PC Laptops. Not what I expected when I heard the title. But, once again, he makes a very good point.

Normally, I get my 'good reads' from books. However, The Blair Switch Project is enough to make me put my book down, and spend ample time at the computer.

Happy Birthday Twinn!

Today is my sister, Rebeka's birthday. Happy Birthday!!!

Beka is the sister I have spent the most time with recently. We drive to and from work together, so we have plenty of time to talk. We are always doing stuff together, the two of us alone and our husband's included. I have grown closer to her in the last few years, and I cherish the wonderful relationship we have now.

I love you, Twinn, and I hope your birthday is as wonderful as you are.

I've Been Twittered

I've seen Twitter around on a few of my friends blog. Thought it was kind of interesting. But today, when Bobbie used it to tell about her kids surgery (here's yesterday's post, if you need more info) and how everyone was doing, I saw the extent of what it can be used for. So I signed up and added it to my blog. (What I'm Doing, in the side bar.) I added my mobile, so I can keep updated even when I'm not at the computer. It seems fun so far. I look forward to seeing what I can do with it. Do you have Twitter? Do you enjoy using it?

OMGosh Finally

I have been trying to get the email address for my MySpace account changed for three months. I have done salute after salute, holding up fingers, different hands, blah blah blah, until I thought the CSRs there were just thinking of more ways to make me feel like an idiot. But finally, it has been changed! I received an email today saying they had finally come through. It's about time, too! I was already writing the response I was going to send if they didn't take care of it this time, and it wasn't going to be pretty. I was ready to cancel my account. I'm sooo glad this is finally done!

Pool Party

We had a pool party at home last night. My roommies (is that really what to call them? We don't just have rooms, they opened their whole house to us. What's the right term for that?) are primary teachers, and one of the kids in their class is moving. So they threw a pool party for him. Grilled burgers, homemade ice cream. Mmmmm. It was awesome!

I Love My Company

For those of you that don't know, I work for a marketing company. I adore my job. I love my co-workers, I love my boss, I love my clients (love in a purely professional way, of course), I love the location, I love what I do.I have been here since end of last year, and I plan on being here for many years.

We have seminars twice a month here. During seminars, there is lots and lots of food. And not just any food, I mean good food. Want to see my lunch for today?

Yes, those are cream puffs. And I didn't have to pay a penny for any of this. Yep, I love it here.

Does Anyone Know?

I'm looking for a calendar or website that can send me email reminders. I want to be able to put in dates to remember- Dr appt in a week, calls meds into pharmacy, send check for phone, ect. I need to be able to receive the reminders by email (or text messaging is okay, too). Anyone have any ideas?
