I have a scarily busy weekend. Tonight I am going with a friend (who got free tickets through work) to a benefit event to hang out with rich people, eat free food and hear John Fogerty play. Tomorrow the DH and I are going to see They Might Be Giants playing their entire album Flood. This is doubly awesome, since it not only is a GREAT album, is also contains "our" song (Birdhouse in Your Soul). Sunday, we are seeing Parade at the Taper.
I believe that's my hey. Hey!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

So my work has to let more people go by year-end. 2 people from our department, who were in all likelihood on the shortlist of folks to chop, resigned in the last 2 weeks. It is such a load off.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So I got to work at 9:00 and it's only 10:23? Who's resting their foot on the brake pedal of Time?

Do people think that Nom Nom Nom came from Cookie Monster? My coworker thinks so, and this had never occurred to me.
This weekend I will be solo with the kids, so trying to keep them occupied and busy enough that we don't squabble. Trip out for donuts, raking leaves, kiddie dance party at a bar downtown, baking (chocolate "bikini" bread!).

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Do people think that Nom Nom Nom came from Cookie Monster?
Yep. He's even been interviewed about it: [link]

Yeah, that was the source of my coworker's statement. Do the Lolcat people acknowledge Cookie Monster as their inspiration?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What's chocolate bikini bread??
I wouldn't have thought of Cookie Monster as the source of NOM NOM NOM, but have heard that before.

My children call zucchini bread "bikini" bread. It started as a two-year-old can't pronounce it thing, and now we all call it that.

That is cute, but less exciting than I was hoping for...
What should I look out for? Or is it something to be avoided?
Oh, it's funny!
