UPDATE: Legs Safely UNensconced, Other Sources of Happiness

No, no leggings will grace these gams. Thank you all for saving me from a fugly fate.

Also, the following are making me very happy:

1. I've discovered that short, black fingernails are an excellent substitute for leggings in my desire to adopt a seasonal trend!

2. THIS gives me daily, unadulterated reading pleasure.

2. Upcoming trip to NY to see these two ladies:

3. The Boy called me tonight while I was writing a paper to tell me to turn on Channel 13, where the weatherman was doing the white man's hip-hop overbite grind across the blue screen. ("And what about Saturday, Bob?" "Warmer, uh-huh, uh-huh." (thrust, thrust)). The lead story of the evening was about how cell phone usage allegedly decreases male sperm count and featured interviews of women blushing and giggling. I LOVE LOCAL NEWS.

4. Van Morrison's "Sweet Thing."

5. Women? We are crazy. But men? Just as nutty. No matter what some may think.

6. I am going to try NaBloPoMo. Because usually by the time I get around to posting something here, it's been so long I have no idea what to say. Dude, I have been boring MYSELF to tears.

7. I have decided to forego originality and repeat my Halloween costume of last year:

8. New season of Top Chef. Harold appearing as a guest judge in the first episode.

9. My family.

10. Halloween means I can finally (semi-reasonably) start thinking about Christmas. And because it's only Halloween, I can still fantasize about how I'll outdo last year's WRAPPING BONANZA before reality sets in and I end up giving everyone I know M&M candy canes I got from 7-11.

Well at least you ARE dressing up for Halloween, which shows your creativity, even if you wear the same costume as last year. I borrowed someone's costume from two years ago...I'm dressing up as Lara Croft: TombRaider Chick. Hooray for big boobs!

Local news rocks. I watch the local Chicago news team make fools of themselves every morning. Good times!

I want to do NaBloPoMo too!

Also, I am sending you email right now.

That story was on the local news up here last night as well. Oh, and I was so happy to see Harold as a guest judge on "Top Chef" last week.
