This & That

So yesterday, I got it into my head that I needed to buy one of the single serving coffee makers.  See, in the past, there have been at least 2 coffee drinkers in our little group at school (Joyce, Patty) but now that they are both gone (and Kim and Diane are afraid of my coffee), I decided that it's stupid for me to waste coffee brewing a whole or half pot.  That being said, I researched best prices around the city (Target, BB&B, Wal-mart) and found that BB&B (Bed Bath & Beyond) had the best deals.  Plus I had a 20% off coupon.  So off I went.  In the end, I got the mid-line Keurig model.  It has a 48oz reservoir and is not huge and is just what I need.  I got 12 samples in my box too.  I'm loving it so far.  I also got a special coupon code when I registered it online...buy 2 boxes get 2 free (+ free shipping).  I went on a few minutes ago and ordered.  I now have 94 cups on their way which should get me through the first few months at school!  YEAH!!!

I saw an article today on a local news station that said: "Should Bert and Ernie Come Out of the Closet".  WTH!?  I didn't know they were in the closet.  They don't sleep in the same bed.  Arent' they really just roomies and best friends?  And really - WHO CARES?!  THEY ARE PUPPETS!  Why does everything have to become an "ISSUE"?  Why can't it just be what it is - two buddies saving some cash by rooming together - without someone coming along with a cause to support or fight about.  UGH!  Poor Bert and Ernie!  Well, really - poor Ernie...Bert can be such a dick sometimes!  And by the way - what's up with the unibrow!?  This is 2011...it's time to tweeze Bert!

Today's plans:  I'm going to head to the store here in a few.  I forgot some things yesterday.  I've already walked Sami but when I get back to from the store, I'll do my ab exercises and my "Tank Top Arms" workout.  Afterwards - I'll type up the remaining chapter questions for The Help and then it'll be time for a little sun worshipping.  Yesterday I emailed the high school staff to see if anyone had a copy of The Help that I could buy.  So far?  One response and it said "sorry...I download on my Nook".  I think I may be in trouble here.  We'll see and cross your fingers that I don't have to buy all the copies at full price. 

K - well I best get a move on.  Later!
