A few random observations, on your Wednesday (as I have only a little bit of time, random is all I can do): 1. According to reports, John Edwards is dropping out of the presidential race. Which is not surprising, really, but makes me a little sad, as it's always nice to see someone local in the national news. Oh, well. There's always the UNC basketball team, which is having a great (although no longer undefeated) season. Maybe now I'll bump into John and Elizabeth out at the country ice cream store we both live sort-of-near? I wonder if he's a chocolate chip type, like me. 2. Is it just me, or is MySpace starting to look more and more like Facebook? The interface is changing, the pages getting simpler, cleaner. They even have a newsfeed like thing now. I guess it was necessary: it really was messy before, and Facebook is so much more streamlined. Plus, when I checked my MySpace page the other day, a shock: no spam. Hooray! 3. I do not want to gloat, but yesterday I received a SUPER DUPER EARLY COPY of Jennifer Weiner's Certain Girls, a book I am so, so excited about. And it doesn't even come out until April! Now I just have pace myselfand try not to read it all in one mad spurt, then try to keep my friends from fighting over who gets to read it next. Maybe whoever buys me some chocolate chip ice cream? Or maybe I'll just give it to John Edwards. 4. Today, for the first time in ages, I get to go out and do a business-y thing and have a nice lunch. And wear cute shoes! I am also going to carry a real purse, and not my diaper bag (which has been my purse for the last five months, so sad, right?) Now, all I have to do is try to leave the house without spitup in my hair or on my clothes. Wish me luck.... have a good day, everyone! |

Ooh, or would he like Pistachio, like I do?? |

And then he will be our VP for the next 4-8 years. You should send him that book and have a chocolate chip ice cream date soon before he's too busy!

I'm so anxious to read it - Good in Bed was the first book book I read by her, so I'm excited to see what's going on in their lives now. Good luck today, Sarah! :) |
I'm pretty sad that John Edwards left the race. I was going to vote for him in two weeks for the VA primary. Most kids at my school hate Hilary (I personally donate), and I think this year is a HUGE year for the young vote. I don't really like Obama either, however that's probably where my vote will land. I hope your lunch went well! =] On January 31st, 2008 03:11 pm (UTC), (Anonymous) replied: I was sad Edwards left too. I voted for him Tuesday (in Florida), and then he left the next day. It's a shame that he was so overshadowed by Hillary and Obama. - Juanita It really is. He really was someone whom you could tell really cared. I honestly thought he would climb up in the polls. I hope Obama or Hilary appoint him for something at the White House. I think my vote is now going to Obama. Sadly, too many people just hate Hilary and I don't think she could have a chance against a Republican. The undecided voters will side with the reps. most likely. who knows. |
