I am back to work.  I am not happy about it.  Why can’t we all just have everything we need without having to work?  I guess what I’m saying is “Why can’t we all just be independently wealthy and have everything in the world run by magical gnomes who like to work?”

Things that I would rather be doing besides working, in no particular order: beading, spinning, knitting, holding Samang, hanging out in the park with J and Thabs, sleeping late with Rick, playing fetch with Freddie, watching TiVo, reading a good book, cuddling with Joe…the list just goes on and on.  And I managed to do all of it on my four day weekend.  Now I just need to figure out how to have a never-ending weekend, I guess.

I was looking forward to an update on your weekend. I’m glad it was all that and a bag of beads. The gnomes running the world would be dandy, and involve a lot of ladders. But would we appreciate the wonder of a long weekend if we didn’t have to work in the meantime?

Things I would rather be doing right now: Painting our guest bedroom a nice shade of aqua, reading, looking at hideous prom gowns at the mall, riding my bike along the hahhhbahhh, eating some ice cream with peanut butter cups, dancing w/ Ellen DeGeneres, and updating my blog and making myself believe that thousands of readers’ days are improved by such an update. That’s it for now.

HAVING DRINKS WITH RETRO

You forgot to say “hanging out with Aimee & ESC”.

Oh, I see. You didn’t do that this weekend so it doesn’t count. I’m going to assume it falls under the list that goes on and on.

The gnomes would just revolt after a while … just sayin’ ;)

I’m looking for the job where they pay me stupid amounts of money to stay home. If I find that job, I’ll get you on the payroll as well.

Hey, Vince! Over HERE! Hook me up, too, Dude!

This is the second reference I’ve seen/heard today about gnomes doing work for us. They must be the new underage child labor.

KtP~Gnomes are contagious.

Aimee~Me first.

Vince~YES.

Seamus~Maybe gnomes LIKE to do our work. Ever think of that? Why deprive the gnomes of something that brings them joy?

Aimee~Yes, it does.

Retro~Yeah, that too.

Mom~Must be.

Kendra~Your list of things is excellent. And now I want ice cream with peanut butter cups. Think the gnomes will bring me some?

I thought that was gonorrhea?
