Sorry for Lack of Posting

I know I don’t post much anymore. I’m losing readers every day because of it, according to my stats. *lol* I’ve hit a rut, and you are reaping the “reward.”

I’m disappointed by the American Idol wildcard from last night. I’m ticked that they put through Jasmine Murray. Sure, she did fine last night, but she hasn’t delivered every time. Ricky Braddy did. That’s bitterly disappointing. And I also didn’t think Megan McCorkeydale (or whatever her name is) didn’t deserve it either – she was horrible last night. But because she looks good on camera she made it. Sure, she’s “current,” but that dancing is annoying AND we already have 3-4 female singers with that quirky sound they love in Megan. If she wins (she won’t, but let’s say she does), her first single wouldn’t come out until June or July this summer at the earliest. She’ll be in with those other quirky female singers who will ALSO be releasing summer tunes. She’ll fall through the cracks.

In other news, we signed up CootieBoy for a two-morning-a-week preschool starting next week. He was really missing school, and I found a place that would let him go only in the mornings (which is cheaper) and they had an open spot. We’ve paid up for the month of March and he’s VERY excited that he’ll be around kids his own age a couple times a week.

In fish tank news, we now have an almost equal number of baby fish to adult fish. We have 10 adult fish and 9 fry. I’ve put a divider in the tank to keep the fry from being eaten, but I’ve got a heavy negative chemical load in the tank because of all the fish and I’m now suffering for it – one of the fish (a pregnant one, by the way) now has Ich. I did the first treatment tonight and hope the baby fish AND the corys make it through the meds over the next few days. We’ll see.

The weather here is BEAUTIFUL considering we had 4-5″ of snow this past weekend. It’s supposed to be in the 70s tomorrow so we’re trying to decide what to do with the kids.

Last night I went to happy hour with my girls from the firm. It was a fun night out and CHEAP – drinks were only $3 (beers were even cheaper).

I got the call from my sister today – she finally was able to find out (4 weeks before delivery) that she was having a girl. I’m very excited for her, and will be packing up the rest of the girl stuff we have here at the house to give her when we visit in April.

My dad took pity on me and shipped me a used 4GB MP3 player. I got it in the mail yesterday and promptly loaded up 22 hours of music. *happy sigh* It’s thrilling to have music in the car again. GOOD music, I should clarify. However, I’m committing to NOT using it until I’m done with this current book on tape that I’m listening to in the car. I have 1 1/2 cassettes left and I’m done. THEN I can listen to my new snazzy MP3 player. w00t!!
