As most people who know me know, I have a giant, insatiable girl crush on Edna St. Vincent Millay, who died oh, 60 years ago. The Washington Post on Saturday did an article about the restoration of her famous farmhouse near Albany, NY and it got me all a-flutter again. I am thinking that if/when I go to the Hudson Valley for Caroline's wedding this fall I shall have to pop up there to look around. I can't help it, my love runs deep. She was an ass-kicker.
Rita threw a martini party on Sunday night and as is the case with situations where people drink out of tiny glasses that are chock full o' straight liquor, it got crazy quickly. After two I switched to cranberry juice so I just to got watch the magic happen. Thanks for that, Rita!
(Nate was J.Crew swanky-tastic at the party. Dan, on the other hand, came straight from his soccer game...oh the freedom of Asheville)
I may be taking a road trip later this week. I'll keep the blog posted.
I can't tell you how many times I've had someone say to me, "I know what you've been up to...don't worry, I read your blog." and it has never ceased to make me crack up laughing. It hasn't gotten me fired just yet (though it got me in some hot water last year) so I guess I'll just keep plugging along.
So Hasbro has also changed the look/characters/format of CLUE. No revolver? No Wrench? No longer Colonel Mustard? For this and the Trivial Pursuit debacle I banish Hasbro to the shit list. Way to crap on the best games out there, Hasbro.
If you have time to kill and need to laugh, go look up Chelsea Handler on YouTube. Just about anything you can watch is hilarious.
Dear neighbor who just got WiFi and has an unsecured network that reaches into my living room,
Kisses.
Love,

I think I've been in nesting mode. The other night it was almost 1am and I was scrubbing my light switch cover because it looked dirty. This is not my normal behavior. "Nesting Mode" for me looks differently than it does for others, as I don't even own a houseplant.
Went out to dinner with Katherine and Andy on Saturday night and didn't realize til the end of the meal that the entire time Andy and I argued about fantasy football. Yet another reason I love those two.

hahaha -- I actually don't think scrubbing the lightswitch cover is weird at all. Remarkably, those things acquire quite a lot of smudge/schmutz. See, also: cabinet knobs.
Yeah, I've got a little OCD in me:)
i'm with you regarding hasbro. they can suck it. i'm ready to cancel my facebook account because hasbro had to get all litigious and whathaveyou and shut down scrabulous. sorry but scramble or scrupples or whatever it's called doesn't cut the mustard.
in other news: you better be around october 3-6 because battle of the brains is on like donkey kong.
oh and ponderosa had the best of both worlds, steak and buffet.
I KNOW. Suck it Hasbro.
But you know that scrabulous is back, they just changed the name to "Word Scraper"? I think that's what it is. Same game, they just made the tiles round. oooh.
October 3-6: Bring it, Lynch. It's like "Me Against the Music" except you aren't music and I'm not Brittany Spears.
Em: You are more OCD than me. I mean I get spurts of it but you win.
Ponderosa is a restaurant with a big buffet. I worked there in college. They have good french dressing and awesome whipped cream on their sundae bar. The rest of it sucks.
