I want another baby but I don’t have the attention span for one. But I crave that newborn smell, do you?

How is the “points” diet system any different than budgeting? I am not good at budgeting so methinks this diet might not be right for me.

I hate it when people repeat their own jokes, not because you didn’t hear it the first time but because they think they are funnier than they are.

I am officially sick of working in a man’s world.

I wish I would’ve gone to law school or finished my master’s because a lot more opportunities would be open to me.

I hate my job and for the first time in my adult life I find myself fantasizing about running out of my workplace screaming.

I see a pattern here – do you?

My best friend asked me recently why I couldn’t just sit at my job and get paid, more specifically why I feel the need to “climb the ladder.” I wish I had an answer to this other than, it is who I am.

I have been told multiple times in my life to stop thinking so much. Now would be good.

I’ve been a little out of it lately. Not feeling very inspired to write or record the ridiculous things that occur around me on a daily basis. I think it has mostly been because I have either been traveling for work, been sick with the flu or caring for a child sick with the flu. Any one of those things can zap the inspiration right out of a girl.

Good news is…I feel better and I don’t have to travel for work for a month! Also, just re-connected with a very old friend and it was fabulous. Kevin and I are going to go visit her soon in the City and I just can’t wait. I promise lots of pictures and stories from that adventure because I can’t imagine there won’t be lots to tell!

In the meantime I have been reading Dooce as usual. She won like every Bloggie known to man. It must be really cool to have found your calling in life AND to be recognized for it. Can’t help but wonder…what is in store for me? What will my calling be? Or am I already doing it and I just don’t know it?

Readers – did you find your “calling”? Do you even believe in such things?

Things overheard, well, almost never:

“I was listening to NPR in the tanning booth.”

“She said she felt skinny so she was going to eat a hamburger, whatever.”
