I hate when I forget the post title

So back to work tomorrow. Honestly, it's time for me to go back. I spent time this weekend cleaning out kitchen cupboards, getting an electronic dart board hung in our downstairs, getting the house all calendared up for 2009 and assorted other minor chores, which strangely, included a fair amount of cleaning and decluttering. You know when I've been driven to that, it's really time to get back to work because I'm bored!

On top of all of that, I made macaroni and cheese from scratch (using real grated cheddar stirred into a homemade white sauce and so on), which is, IMO, the only mac & cheese really worth eating. It was delicious. But it's such a homemakerly thing to do, it kind of freaked me out. So it's back to work I go tomorrow when I shall be free to once more say, "Oh, I'm just too tired to do (add chore of your choice)."

The one thing I'll miss is lazing around in bed all morning, because I love doing that. I've been nestling down in the flannel sheets and it's so cozy. I love when it's time to put the flannel sheets on.

Time to get my Hulu on for awhile.

Happy birthday, AD!

Everyone scoot on over to Adamdarling's blog and wish her happy birthday. Just don't be too loud or stay too late, because she's an old woman and needs her rest. Go on now!

What I think is weird are the people who have these blogs and are pretending they are just regular blogs, but really are just advertising one thing or the other. It's obvious they get paid to post what is basically an advertisement. That's OK -- everyone is entitled to make money. I just think it's dishonest and skeevy to pretend to be blogging about something honestly when in reality they're getting paid for it. That's called not having ethics, people because, really, are you going to write something about a product or service if you're getting paid for said writing? Uh ... no.

Is anyone else laughing their heads off over the "free" heaters that are being "given away" encased in $200 mantels constructed by Amish carpenters who are working feverishly to keep up with demand so great, they've had to impose a two-heater limit per family? I die every time they show the Amish people hammering the mantels together in their workshop wearing fake beards.
