Office on the Run
Not much time to blog today. My tennis team is in the playoffs tomorrow (#1 seed!) and we have practice tonight after puppy class, which is after I pick up my car from the body shop, which is right after work.
I had the most horrible lunch today at this Mexican place that I already didn't like, but my friend insisted that I try it again because it's allegedly very authentic and delicious. I ordered a cheese enchilada and got chicken, and then when they brought the cheese one, the cheese wasn't melted and they were using a very bad canned enchilada sauce. It's no so hard to make good enchilada sauce, but whatever. I'm never going back there, ever.
I'm really exhausted and need to get some sleep tonight. I'm still working on this hideous project for Mr. S and he's totally pestering me about getting it done, and then says it has to be 100% correct, to take my time and make sure it's right. I'm kind of to the point where I can't look at it anymore. At least not today.
I have a rental car and I can't wait to get my real car back.
I'm not overstating it when I say I desperately need a vacation, or at least a couple of days off when no one bothers me, which is never going to happen. When I ask the kids sometimes to let me sleep or read or whatever on a Saturday, they can usually leave me alone until about 9:30 a.m.
I picked up a John Grisham book at the grocery store the other day. I think it was called The Broker. Anyway, I'm not a huge Grisham fan but I thought it would be a good way to pass the time while I was dealing with all this car stuff I had to do. I read about half the book and I kept thinking, "I just don't know if I've read this before. It sounds familiar, but of course all his books are the same. I don't think I've read it." Well, after I got about halfway through, I decided I was pretty sure I had read it already, and if I hadn't, I'd read something so much like it that it didn't seem necessary to finish it. I'm still not really sure, but I no longer care.
Our puppy has turned into the best dog ever.

Oh, I Know! I've been meaning to email you but sooo busy! Can't wait for the final!
Don't worry. I know you're insanely busy, just from reading your blog.
I'm so glad Federer got knocked off his throne. Go, Novak!
Good luck in the tennis playoffs today!
Which is why I stopped reading Grisham about 10 books ago.
My kids are grown and I STILL cannot escape totally.
I still can't remember which Grisham books I've read either. That's why I'm so glad I keep track of my reading lately.
Which reminds me... I read (or listened to, actually) "There's a (Slight) Chance I Might Be Going to Hell..." and I totally loved it!
