Short but sweet.

Saw Eclipse again today. Like it better each time I see it, still wish they'd have included my fave line from the book.

I love Boise State. They make me nearly as happy as my Irish.

Tomorrow is my DD's birthday ... 8 years with my sunshine.

More ... and more eloquent ... tomorrow.

Dear Immune System:

Why hast thou forsaken me?

Here we are, just 25 days until we leave for Disney.  And I've got what is likely the tail end of a sinus infection.  I thought it was allergies, then maybe a simple head cold.  But clearly, it's more than that.  It's been a week, and I feel horrid still.  And very tired.  I'm hoping that this is the end of the nonsense, since I don't have much time to get back on the straight and narrow.

This weekend needs to involve lots of prep for the trip, and I have very little energy to do it.  My to-do list involves:

• Purchasing my daughter a new swimsuit, as she's outgrown all her others
• Returning the skirt and jeans that I purchased without her, as she moved up a size in the past month
• Exchanging the t-shirt paint I purchased for more feminine colors ... I bought red, black, and gold ... I think FusserBug will want her Spiral Mickey Head Shirt to be very girly, since Panda and Princess LiarPants aren't going now. 
• Ironing on all the transfers I've gotten completed already
• Having Panda order a new printer, since ours took a dump
• Picking up a few pairs of shorts (on clearance at Avenue) for myself
• Meeting my daddy and his beautiful wife for lunch at 1 on Sunday
• Making the transfer shirts
• And I'm sure about a kabillion things that I've forgotten.

I also want to make it over to the dollar theater to see Eclipse.  OH and I need to pick up Twilight and New Moon on DVD so that I can add it to iTunes and to my iTouch for the trip.

But the most important thing?  COLLEGE FOOTBALL STARTS TOMORROW!  Hurray for GameDay!

Yeah.  No rest for the weary.

My nerdy-ness knows no bounds.

Sadly, I've devolved really far into fangirl-dom.

How, you ask?

I've stalked the local dollar theater.  They started running Eclipse today.  I'm wondering just how many times I can go see it before my husband thinks that I'm clinically insane. 

I had planned to take my stepdaughter to see it.  However, we've had some serious behavioral issues lately ... starting with lying and finishing with forgery.  She lied about homework, lied about her planner assignment at school, and then forged my husband's signature to the pages where a parent signature was required.  So unfortunately, this causes her to not be able to go to Disney with us.

Although I understand why she can't go, I'm not happy at all.  I've put tens of hours - maybe hundreds - into planning this trip.  And she couldn't stop the lying long enough for us to be able to take her.  I'm so pissed.

I'm more pissed that I won't get my anniversary dinner at Narcoossee's with my husband, more than anything.  I'll enjoy my week with my FusserBug (my daughter), but it'll be bittersweet for sure.

Off to bed.  Fighting a nasty cold, and tomorrow is September 1st.  I plan to go balls to the wall and post SOMETHING every day in September.
