W, diet coke and nuts

making
meatloaf - between you and me, it smells absolutely heavenly, but clearly i cannot out loud admit that and i certainly can't eat it :(  

wishing
i could have pancakes... it being pancake Tuesday and all but it's a dumbass berry day :(

giving
up diet coke for lent.  actually it's already been a (reaaaally looooooong snowed-in) week without it and so far so good (she tried to convince herself...) 

disliking
people making fun of George W Bush's artwork.  now i hate GWB as much as the next person (OK, maybe a little bit more than the average person ;) but honestly, people should just leave him the hell alone with his box of paints.  he's not hurting anyone anymore, and it's just not nice to mess with Texas (or so it says on my oven glove :)

hating
living in a rental.  it is going on two bloody months of having a semi-broken, sometimes-working, sometimes-deadly oven.  it's been replaced, with a crappity 'new' one which has broken again and allegedly, now it's fixed but that doesn't explain why the house reeks of gas and i have an absolutely throbbing headache.  if it was MY oven, i'd take a pick-axe to it but it's not and i need to think about that sectional sofa sized security deposit  (did i mention i HAAAATE renting....)

wishing
Danny wasn't in a nut-free/chocolate-free/fun-free classroom....  no treats are allowed on Valentine's Day - just dumbass cards :(  seriously, you don't want those 7/8 year olds having TOO much fun before they grow up ;)'

off to get the boy - back later xo
