Day 15

Flying under my new boss's radar - gotta be a good sign. Drama lately though...her new puppy, a 3 month old Cockapoo, who is our new office mascot, got caught in a door last week - rushed off to Puppy E.R. Tonight, drinks with her old assistant. Expecting some good gossip...

Spent a lovely Friday evening at Jeff Allen's fancy shmancy new pad...doing pretty well for himself with his girlfriend Erin - who, by the way, I LOVE HER! Awesome girl - way to go, Jeff!

Got recipes? Since airfares are utterly redonkulous right now, I am hosting LA Thanksgiving '05! If anyone has any good recipes you can recommend, pass 'em on...

And making a return:

THINGS I HATE:

My upstairs neighbor.

She vaccuums. All the time. 7am-11pm. Vaccuuming. With her big giant feet pounding the floor all day and all night. Does she work? I don't think so. Does she sleep? I don't think so. So, you ask, what does she do? She vaccuums.

Who knew Bigfoot had OCD?

Other things I hate this week:

Home prices. Looked at a 2 bedroom house yesterday. 1350 square feet. $815,000.

I don't even need to comment on that.

THINGS I RECOMMEND:

Get a survival kit together. Hurricanes, Floods, Fires, Blackouts, Tornadoes....Nature is trying to tell us something, people! Go to REI, get yourselves a water purifier, a camp stove, and some dried food packages. Trust me on this.

And finally: 12 days, 6 hours and 29 minutes until Harry Potter comes out! YAY HARRY POTTER!
