Here's some stuff:
**I'm tired of the Sonic Drive-In commercials. Can't they tell us how great Sonic burgers are without insulting other burger places?
**My Alma Mater varsity basketball team has won districts. It was a great game, and while the other team had their Cheer Squad, complete with poms, sighs, and choreographed dances to go with their Pep Band, we just had the SuperFans, a bunch of high school kids who paint their faces and cheer and wear silly clashy blue and white clothes. They also avoid "You Suck" cheers, and don't heckle the other team's free throw thrower. They are a lot of fun.
**TNT has "primetime during the daytime" and they show two episodes of ER each morning. I now care about Dr. Carter, Dr. Kovac, Dr. Malluci, Dr. Chen, Dr. Greene, Dr. Corday, Nurse Hathaway, and the whole County General gang. Sigh. Dr. Greene's dad just died, and Nurse Hathaway is thinking about the possibility of moving away to give her daughters a daddy. And Dr. Kovac is so cute! and sad becacue Nurse Hathaway spurned his attentions. And Dr. Malluci has anger problems. It really is a soap opera. So great.
**How about the Oscars, eh? I'm glad there was a 14-year-old girl who was dressed like a girl instead of like a mini-hooker. I didn't like Liv Tyler's hair. I didn't like Jennifer Garner's dress at first but I really grew to like it. And LOTR 3 swept the whole thing. One thing: I really want to see Whale Rider now.
**I have a job interview tomorrow. Sure hope it goes well.
**Went and saw The Passion of the Christ last night. It certainly was Gibsony. And clearly Roman Catholic. But interesting.
**I want to go to Santa Fe again. A road trip, you know. That would be nice.
**I am amazed at how lax the TV censors are. Can you believe the language that is permissible these days? Ick.
**We have friends with a 18-month baby, and she is a doll. She learns new words each day and some I have taught her -- elbow and spider. She knows where her elbow is, thanks to me. She is a marvel, and I have been babysitting her because I have nothing else to do, and I love how she knows me. We went to the park, and we ran into some strangers and she clammed up. I didn't know she was so open around me, and I like that she knows me and runs to me. She also says "Bye bye." We were all at a department store the other day, and there were some stuffed ducks there for Easter and she grabbed one and held it while we were shopping. When we were leaving, her parents were paying and I was entertaining her, and I rolled her stroller over to the Duck Display and got her to put Duck back. When we were walking out, she said, "Bye bye duck." It was real cute and I can't wait to see her grow even more. And she is going to be an older sister! Hooray!
