Weekend Update
I went to see Jennie and her new baby, Martin, on Saturday. I brought him a blanket I knit. He's only two weeks old, so he lays around like a little turtle and just wants you to hold him all the time. So cute.
Saturday night I went to see Bend it Like Beckham with Jeremy, Bill & Jack. It was a very cute movie. Plus, some of the songs on the soundtrack were by Melanie C. (aka Sporty Spice), and we all know how I feel about Spice.
On Sunday, Jeremy and I went to The Tea Garden for these crazy drinks with tapioca bubbles in them. They look sort of like giant caviar (and that's what I look like with no makeup on. Egad!). The drink seems like it has potential, but I need to try a different flavor next time. We both agreed that there seemed to be too many tapioca pearls, so we drove around with the top down, spitting tapioca at passing cars.
Today is such a Monday. I couldn't get out of bed this morning, I forgot my cell phone at home, and am currently in a panic over all the non-fun crap I need to get done: taxes, board meetings, checkbook balancing, bill paying, apartment cleaning, etc. Bah.
Thought of the day: is it just me, or does this Cadbury egg taste like ass?

Board meetings aren't fun?? How come I didn't get that memo?

Posted by: Sam on Tue Apr 01, 2003 | ReplySam, my dear brother, 6 years older than me, taught me at a very age that Tapioca is actually fish eyes.

Posted by: irish-girl on Tue Apr 01, 2003 | ReplyThe tapioca/fish eyes thing I don't know about - but have you ever dissected a frog's eye? Seriously, the inner part of the eye looks exactly like tapioca. You honestly can't tell the two apart by site alone.
Sight? Site? Which frickin word do I want there? Anyway, you get the point. (I'm becoming illiterate in my old age, forgive me.)
Posted by: Natalie on Tue Apr 01, 2003 | ReplySo you embed a clever little Java script reveal in your self published blog, and then forward ME a url to rib me for being a uber geek?????
Posted by: jack on Tue Apr 01, 2003 | ReplyHey Girl! Thought you might find this as funny as I did. It's from a generator I came across.
Posted by: Buddha on Tue Apr 01, 2003 | Replydamn that egg looks fine! That eggy got back!
Um... what's that in the left side of the photo? some kind of scooter?
Posted by: grid on Tue Apr 01, 2003 | Replyit's a little mini police pedal car. i tried to sit in it today, but my booty is too big.
Posted by: irish-girl on Tue Apr 01, 2003 | ReplyI want to see it up close! you should have had someone take a picture of you trying to sit in it!
Posted by: grid on Wed Apr 02, 2003 | Replyafter attempting to sit in the police car, i'm pretty sure my ass looked quite a lot like that cadbury egg.
