Before I get started on today's ramblings...

I AM IN A HUGE NEED FOR A VHS COPY OF BILL NYE THE SCIENCE GUY'S DINOSAURS: THOSE BIG BONEHEADS.

Don't ask why, just work with me on this one. Thank you.

Scout Cloud Lee from CBS's Survivor was at the public library last night at 7:00pm talking about the happenings of the show.

I left work, picked up the boy, went to the grocery store to get a few items (milk, Shake N Bake, corn, cookies with M&Ms), fought with the self check out lane (ya know, stores should give a discount to us folks who use that service), drove home, put the groceries up, cooked dinner, glanced at the clock, and guess what time it was? That's right, 7:00pm.

So much for that.

Luckily, our brilliant college newspaper had a reporter there so I could read all about it today. Hmmm...let's see...she had the shoes she wore on the show, a buff (complete with island scents, gaack), and a bag full of toiletry items she built while on the show. WTF? She built toiletry items? I don't even want to know. {{{reading further}}} Ooooh, combs and toothbrushes. Whew.

What did you have for lunch? I thought I would try out my new Tupperware Soup Bowl Thingie. I put in the soup, put in the water, put on the lid, but when I lifted the vent, it looked like Mount Saint Helens. I had obviously overfilled. Hmmm...I wonder if that is what that little line is for? One of my co-workers slapped her hand over her mouth to keep from laughing. Didn't work, she did anyway. Evidently the look on my face was priceless.

I got that mess cleaned up, heated the soup, and, spurt, managed to spray it again when I closed the vent. Welcome to my world. But, ya know, crap like that happens to me so much, it doesn't even really bother me anymore. And, you know what? My soup was good. The bowl worked just fine, the operator, not so much.

I'm gonna let you in on a little secret...lean in close...closer...closer...closer...Not That Close, Perv! I lurve Tupperware. There. I said it. I lurve Tupperware! Tupperware! Tupperware! Tupperware! You got a problem with that? Yeah, I didn't think so...

Don't even get me started on Pampered Chef.
