...and there was also much cake

Sorry folks, it's that time again.  What time, you ask?  Well, do you remember my past strategy of throwing words at the computer screen & calling it a day?  Yep, you guessed it - - it's time to get random! 

You're welcome.

I am very, very happy that it is Friday.  The only thing that would make me happier would be if it was actually...Saturday :)

Last night I celebrated Kari's birthday with some very fun people who were all at least 200 years younger than I am.  A lesser (or smarter!) person might have felt a little, well, old, but I was far too busy learning how to be more hip and cool and happenin.  I was given a beginner's introduction to some HI-larious you-tube postings, and I laughed...oh how I laughed.

I also have it on good authority that hip and cool and happening people do not declare themselves so.

I am a work in progress.

I'm sorry to report that I did not have sweet potato fries OR peas this week.  This makes me kind of sad.  I do know that Kari had SPF yesterday for her birthday lunch with her hubby.  That's almost as good...but not quite.

I tweeted Steve Martin(!) this week because he needed vocabulary advice.  I'm sure he was grateful.  I am always willing to help out in a pretend vocabulary crisis.  I have turned into one of those crazy people who sorta kinda communicate with complete strangers and like it.  Kids, do not try this at home.

I "worked out" twice this week at the gym.  with my mom.  and she totally makes me look like a wimp and a wuss.  In fact, I told her I needed to title my blog post I am a wimp and a wuss.  She said I am too hard on myself.  

Now I ask you, who am I to argue with my mother?

I went to the zoo this week with the fam.  I don't see how life could get any better than that unless maybe we were at a zoo in, oh I don't know, Hawaii?  Otherwise life couldn't get any better than spending the day with my children at the NC Zoo.  We had a great time :)

So all in all it has been a swell week, pretty much terrific with a little bit of awesome/crazy thrown in.  However, I fear I am too old to have so much wonderfulness in one week.  Two birthdays, a road trip to the zoo, two trips to the gym, a tweet to a celebrity, and a full time job have rendered me exhausted and worn out and pooped.

In other words, I'm a wimp and a wuss.  Sorry Mom.

Happy Friday!
