Sep. 26th, 2007 08:31 amI'm waiting for a phone call back from my mother. We have various things scheduled this week--hair appointment (thank god--did I mention I went blonde again? I'm sorry, all of you who loved me as a redhead, but the gray was showing really, really badly as the roots came in *and* making me look bald, plus my husband had shyly mentioned he might like it if I went back to being a blonde someday, if I felt like it, possibly, so I did. Of course, now he's having a bit of difficulty adapting to the blonde, but such is life and it's kinda sweet. So it took forever to lighten my hair up--I actually got bleached last time because it was driving my friendly family hairdresser nuts--and right now it's still a little streaky, but in a good way. Except my roots are really showing and my bangs are way too long. Which was my point, to begin. This really ought to be a footnote. But whatever. All 3 of you reading are sophisticated enough to follow this, right?) and the girls (the other Fabulous Miss T and her sister, the Just as Fab, but Shorter, Miss L) coming over one afternoon this week to meet the Zweeble (the Super-Fab Mr. Z?).**
Anyway, I have no idea when, exactly, these things are supposed to happen, so now I have to wait for Mom to find her day planner and call me back.
In other news--hey, Robin McKinley has a LiveJournal (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
robinmckinley) *and* a new book out (Dragonhaven--haven't bought it yet, but it's only a matter of time ...), all of you who like her books.
And I had all these shows I wanted to watch this season, right? Heroes, Reaper, Pushing Daisies ... Well, I skipped the Heroes premiere so I could play Lego Star Wars II with Scott (we finished all 3 movies!)*** Which was a lot of fun and something he and I need to do regularly. Well, maybe not that game all the time, but video games in general. Oh, gads, where is my point? Okay, I skipped most of Reaper last night, just didn't care much, and I have no idea if I'm going to manage Pushing Daisies when the time comes. And it's not lack of time--the baby is usually asleep by the time these shows come on. It's just ... apathy. Something is wrong with me! I am not a TV geek anymore!
It may be the unread stack of shame in my living room. Book geek trumps TV geek any day.
Ah, there is the phone ...
**ah, parentheses ... I love asides ...
***We fired it up again Sunday night. The last time we'd played our game was 2 days before the baby was born. And I'm sure the reason we didn't play the night before he was born was because I knew I had to get up for my doctor's appointment the next morning, and we'd end up playing until 1am. :)
I just noticed, I spelled "sophisticated" as "spohisticated" the first time through ... I need to start using spohisticated in conversation.
