I've been feeling kind of oddly let down this week, and I'm not entirely sure why. I think I'm a little stressed from work and stuff going on in my personal life and it's making me feel a little tired of it all. Then, there's these weird things in the news I'm not entirely sure how to react to:
- This story is more just a random piece of news. However, I have one question...how the hell do they get back home after going to school?
- Does anyone actually think that the proposed offshore drilling is a good idea? It makes me curious what "favors" were traded in order to get more drilling? The timing seems very "convenient" for this to have been announced just a week or so after the health care vote, or is he really just trying to garner more Republican votes for a climate bill. If that's the case, it seems odd to pass a bill aimed at reducing emissions...while at the same time, developing a plan that CREATES emissions and potentially destroys beaches and wildlife in the oceans. Ugh. Actually, I do know how to respond to this. I am ridiculously annoyed/upset/whatever you want to call it.
- On a less serious note, WTF is with all the worms at our place? I swear, every morning I take Oscar for a walk, there is no less than 50 worms wriggling around on the parking lot (and a couple thousand of dead, baked worms from previous days). I used to try and pick up worms that were stuck on the pavement and put them back in the grass/dirt area. But this is insane. I could spend ALL DAY picking up these things. I have never seen so many worms in my life and I really want to know where they all came from! And I would really like little O to stop trying to eat them. It's so disgusting.
- The Eagles - I think I will be finding myself a new team to love. I'm truly heartbroken they are looking to trade McNabb (I have no idea why this is so upsetting to me...I don't know him personally. I think it's just more to do with losing my Eagles trio). That is the last of my Eagles love...and I have a really hard time loving a team that is just going to make me think of Andy Reid and how much I dislike him. In some ways, I really want McNabb to be traded and then be the next Randall Cunningham so that all the haters realize that maybe if he had a team to back him up...he'd be freaking awesome. But, at the same time...I can't really bring myself to cheer for any other team but the Eagles. I also can't really see anyone offering enough for us to actually trade him this year. Which means, he'll probably leave as a free agent next year. But it's sad. I love my McNabb.
- My boss is trying to hook me up with a contractor that we work with. He lives in NC. I'm not entirely sure WHY she's trying to hook me up with him and I can't decide if it's sweet or annoying (or possibly both). At least he's cute :-).
Hope everyone has a lovely Easter weekend!

I'm sorry about McNabb. I kind of hope the Vikings pick him up. I think he'd do awesome here.
