If it's only Tuesday, how come it feels like Friday?

Actually, it doesn't feel like Friday, it feels like it should be Friday. Several things that have come across my radar in the last few days:

1. The new line-up for Dancing With the Stars is out. Priscilla Presley. 'Nuff said.

2. My friend sent out the requisite "we're-so-excited-'cause-we're-pregnant" email. I love her, but she signed it "Pregsie Megsie." Honestly.

3. My other friend Ali had a baby girl this weekend. That makes the score Bakers-0 babies, Friends-10,000. A losing score I'm okay with.

4. Apparently Ty Lawson's ankle has a mind of its own, and it doesn't want to play ball. I took sports medicine in high school. Can I help?

5. TRiO Day is Thursday. It's the day that we celebrate our program and our students, blah blah blah. I love the day, really I do, but not when I'm in charge of it and not when I have a workshop to do and two night classes to teach. There are 120 people coming. Feed them and they will come.

6. I read up on nocturnal cats. The circles under Brian's eyes are going to need makeup soon, because Lucy's business hours are 1am-5am. According to my notes, we have to wake her up everytime she's sleeping and play with her til she collapses. What about me? What if I collapse?

7. Kristen is back from Mexico, where she participated in Tequila Bingo and Coconut Bowling. What I'm wondering is whether you have to be in Mexico to play Tequila Bingo. Sounds like a fun Saturday night in SmithVegas to me! Although, Mexico also sounds like a fun Saturday night to me.

8. Speaking of fun, there are only 3 takers for the Bahamas cruise on May 30. Wanna go? As long as you take baths on a regular basis, you can be my roommate. I snore, though. Ask Carrol.

9. Eleven people came to my workshop today. That's up from two at the beginning of January. Does that mean my approval rating is going up? I sure hope so.

10. Tomorrow is hump day. I've never liked this term. The implication, of course, is that we should all be humping, but the only person I know who humps is my dad's dog. Why can't they come up with a better word? This sounds like that horrible cell phone commercial: "When you don't have to worry about how much you're spending on your monthly plan, you're free to talk about...other things."

I wish I could say that I'm finished with my random ramble, but I'm not. I have class tonight. Expect more where this came from.
