[just like it hasn't been three years]

[mazily]

1. We are not friends, Johnny, so stop being all mavericky and pretending like we are. (Can I just peek into the future to see how this all ends? Though, of course, if I had time travel technology, I would just go back in time and make sure voting happened properly in Palm Beach county, so.)
   
   
2. My 2008 Playoff hoodie arrived, and I'm about 99.9% sure they sent the wrong size. Now, the tag says small, which would be correct, only it's about the same size as my teddy bear. So I'm thinking they think I'm about six years old. Or, you know, Dustin Pedroia.
   
   
3. Watching the NLCS last night, I found my mind wandering, all, "Andre Ethier sure is pretty. Russell Martin is hot. Hm, and Cole Hamels ain't bad looking either." So, yeah, that about sums up my feelings on that matter.
   
   
4. Next week, big work things are going down. It is going to be insane crazy, and while there are plenty of things I'm looking forward to (I get a temp of my very own! I shall boss her around and make her fetch things! New work responsibilities! Stuff!), I am so very dreading the omg!stress of it all.
   
   
5. Speaking of omg!stress, Dice-K.*
   
   
6. I am thinking of Nano-ing (that's totally a legit word, okay?) my cheesy hockey boarding school CW-style soap pilot. I mean, sure, a pilot is not a novel, but it's definitely close enough for whatever the hell it is things need to be close enough for. I am also thinking of not doing this, of course, because see above in re: work being a mess for the foreseeable future.
   
   
7. I just think seven is a cool number. Also, I am enjoying: The Sarah Jane Adventures, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., The Wire, Rachel Maddow (& her show, obvs.), Friday Night Lights, Tina Fey, Generation Kill, and (the shame) Dirty Sexy Money. Oh, TV. So TV-like.
   
   
8. Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are good eats. So is delicata squash made just so.
   
   *Confession: I wrote this at the end of the first inning. Which meant I couldn't post until after the last out.
