Seymour? Where are you?

by Donna on January 31, 2008

Oh my gosh! 45 minutes until lunch and I am HUNGRY! HUNGRY! How will I survive? Gosh, I wouldn’t do well in Ethiopia!

Unfortunate News

by Donna on January 30, 2008

At lunch I went to J.Crew and I tried on the yellow dress. It fit. It just didn’t blow me away. The quality was pretty horrific for something that costs 175.00. For that amount, I expect something more than an unlined dress that is already starting to pill. Darnit!

Too much cremora in my coffee

by Donna on January 30, 2008

5:30 came and 5:30 went. I wanted to stay snuggled in bed. Finally at 6:00 I knew I had to get up and start moving. I decided not to shower to save some of the time I wasted lollygagging in bed. Once in the bathroom and looking at my hair I [...]

Loss Vegas, Viva!

by Donna on January 29, 2008

They’re sending me to Vegas in March. I am not happy but what can I do? It’s paid. I might as well make the best of it. My one plan is to do what I do practically every year– find out where Trent Carlini is performing, pay an exorbitant amount of [...]

Montag

by Donna on January 28, 2008

Another weekend here and gone. On Saturday, Robert and I attempted to make California Sushi Rolls. The first roll was a complete failure– too much rice, not enough seaweed paper overlap. The second roll went much better. It was fun experimenting but I think we are probably better off just going [...]

Misheard Lyrics

by Donna on January 27, 2008

In a previous post I stated that I was compiling a DVD for Robert of the songs he and his friend’s performed at Drummer Mike’s 40th birthday party. The problem was, I am not terribly familiar with the kind of music they perform. There was one song I had never heard before. [...]

Grease for peace

by Donna on January 27, 2008

I can’t quite remember what spurred it but Robert said to me last night, “Sha Na Na was the f*cking SH*T!” I agreed with him and together we lamented that their variety show is not on DVD. I LOVED their show. My family watched it every week back in the late 70’s. [...]

Nathan emailed me asking if I knew how he could get a copy of Peter Wolf’s song Lights Out. My camera was sitting right next to me so I decided to record my steps of getting him the song. I then uploaded it to YouTube and sent him the link.

And [...]
