Sweet Home, Blog-abama
Honey? You don't sound so good.
I've been stuck in rush hour traffic...
Aww, Elizabeth, He commiserated
For TWO HOURS! I moan. Did you know I was wearing two different earrings today?
You left before I was up, he reminded me.
Also? No more bare feet with these slides... I had to keep moving away from the guys in the meeting. The stink was heinous. They were beginning to take it personally. Although, I don't think that one guy would care. You know what he said to me after as we were driving into the office from his hotel?
No -
We passed a poor roadkill raccoon and he said 'I hit one of those last week; it wasn't flat yet, either'. I mean, ewww.
How -
Plus? He kept playing that sound clip on his laptop. The one from Jerry Maguire, it ends with "You had me at hello". It was beginning to creep me out. I mean, he's cool and everything ..and I guess iwth my stinky feet and black tongue, I'm no prize. But...
Wait! How'd the meeting go?
Awful. I'm surprised I still have a job. The Boss hated everything we showed him. I should have grown up to be a firefighter or ballerina.
Oh, honey. Do you want me to pick up some fish & chips for you on the way home?
Would you do that? I think it's going to take a lot to make me human again.
And it did:
1 snerklebutt Bearchild, happy to see me and cuddly as kittens
1 cleaned house (sainted babysitter)
1 long, long hot shower
1 frisky and sweet husband
1 plate of almost British-tasting fish & chips (although, you need a proper chippy to get the chips right)
1 hot toddy (equal parts brandy,water,honey and dashes lemon and cloves. HOT)
8 comments from the coolest people in the blogisphere while I was locked in the on-site meetings
1 Lynyrd Skynrd tune, cranked
It only gets better. Tomorrow I get to to sleep in and then troll for this week's funniest blog entries... Shh now, there's no place like...

mmmm...fish & chips. They must've come from a local place, cause we can't get any that good here.
Sounds like a lousy day - hope today is better.
Heh. I hope the weekend shapes up better.
I wore 2 different earrings this week, too!

(giggling about the Lynard Skynard tune) I expected to hear that from MY blog, being in Atlanta, GA and all. My sympathies are with you - corporate mom here as well. Love your blog.
P.S. I call my 3 year old monkeybutt. Snerklebutt is cute, too!
