jank: Mind fodder

Mind fodder

Today I found myself searching for TV shows to watch. Currently I only watch Survivor on a regular basis and I was thinking of how it'd be cool to rot my brain a little more. I also figured if I can get addicted to a few more tv shows, I might be able to stay up past 8pm. I've become such a sack that I fall asleep as soon as I hit the couch and that's getting earlier and earlier.

So I was talking to my coworker, Diane, today and she suggested Lost. In between projects today I've been reading the synopsis of each episode I've missed. (I've missed a mere 16 so far..ugh). The show sounds awesome and I plan on watching tomorrow night. I bet I can keep up if I can just stay awake.

The boys are now sick. Dan's recovering a little at a time and Kendallpops and I are hiding out trying to dodge their germs. My boss is still sick, which proves that this crud has staying power. I am continually doing the "stay away" dance with all germ infested parties. (except Dan...I can't resist kissing him as much as possible).

I'm almost done reading Digital Fortress by Dan Brown. It's a fast read and very entertaining. I love geek talk and this is chock full of it. I *should* be reading The Know It All for our book club but uh...I haven't yet. I'll get to it.

We did lots of entirely entertaining things this weekend even though people were sick and work had to be done.

We had Carls Ice Cream, Pizza Hut, went bowling, ate out twice on Sunday and then again on Monday we ate out and we saw Because of Winn Dixie. We all loved the movie and I think we might have each gained 5 lbs this weekend.

The work side of things wasn't as productive but Dan did paint some of his house (there's still lots more to do) and we got the preliminary work done on listing it. So we crammed lots into our long weekend and by last night we all sort of retreated to separate corners and entertained ourselves...it was nice.

the cold/flu thing that is going around is brutal. Avoid getting it if you can. It never...goes....away.

Lost is awesome!! :) I've watched it since the beginning. I'm totally hooked. I think if you have been reading the episodes you should be able to jump right in.

Locke scares me though.
