I left my lights on (again) last night. This morning my neighbor had the pleasure of witnessing my mechanical skills first hand. Guess how I learned which cable is positive and which is negative? The good news is nothing exploded and I didn't drain her battery too much....(I'm taking her to lunch).

The weather today was a slice of heaven. I wanted to run out to the beach and fry myself up a tan. And then I visited my Facialist/Eyebrow Lady who furrowed her brow and said in a very serious tone that I have to stay out of the sun and wear SPF 50 for the rest of my life. Damn ancestral genes of blindingly white skin!

I did manage to make it through another Baby Shower this afternoon (I'm getting good at this). However, I failed to escape before the Present Opening Ceremony.

"It's all a bunch of crap," said my High School Friend/Experienced Mother Of Two standing next to me as we watched our friend display a state-of-the-art baby thermometer.

Glad to know there's a reason why I was bored to tears.

Came home and checked the Online Dating Site to discover that the love continues to flow. Recently, this gem landed in my mailbox.

"Sorry I had to say i saw your pic and seriously have to change my pants and stop
drooling!!! ;)"

Why thank you, Sir...(I presume he meant this as a compliment), but I don't know if I can handle this much love. My friend likens Internet Dating to shopping at Ross.

"You have to sort through all the riff-raff to get to the good stuff."

Yes, but $5 jeans don't send shivers down my spine and make lose faith in humanity. (although, maybe they should).

Just for today, I can make it through a beautiful Saturday.
