SCARY SKY
This is what the sky looked like driving back from lunch today! This is looking South, right over Marshal Space Flight Center. Jimmy works there. Wonder if that is only a coincidence? (Can you guess my mood?)

GETTING LUNCH
Guess where I picked up lunch today?
....and guess what was in front of me? The most softest, pink Cadillac I have ever seen. And what a cute license plate "AIM HYE."
As you can tell by the trunk below, it was a Mary Kay Caddie. But this is what I don't get...It was being driven by a man. I thought, hum, maybe his car broke down and he had to borrow his wife's, or maybe he was driving his wife around in her car, or, just maybe he himself was a $1 million dollar seller of Mary Kay. (Probably no on that last one.)
I can not for the life of me imagine why any man would be caught dead driving this soft pink car! It could be he was like the CEO of Mary Kay - yea - that's it. That's the only reasonable explanation! But, then I guess the people in the Chick-fil-a parking lot were wondering, "Why in the hell is the woman in the Malibu taking pictures in the drive through line?" They will never know!

DIRTYBOARD CHAMPIONSHIP FOR THE WEEK
Last night we had the Partner's Dirty Board Championship for the week of 10/10/2009. Well, it was the Championship for the Week until Josh and Gram beat me and Rachel! Then it just became the Championship for Wednesday! (we play dirty with the championship rules!)
I don't know what happened. Rachel and I were killing them. Then all of a sudden Rachel was all home safe, Gram (somehow) got all home safe, and Josh and I had one man out and we both needed a one to win. Obviously, Josh rolled a one before I did.
It was an extremely exciting but emotional game! Rachel and I are both having a dry spell when it comes to dirty board wins lately. Hell, Tim beat me twice in a row last night before the big game!
WE NEED OUR DIRTY BOARD MOJO BACK!
help!

IT'S MONDAY AGAIN.
Today would have been a perfect day to sleep in. It was cloudy and cold, and I was sleeping REAL good. But, as Mondays go, this has been ok. Got a lot of work done. Get to go home and have the house to myself (of course Bikie and Salad will be there) until about 8:00 when Rachel gets home from school. Hey wait, that actually gives me something to look forward to on Mondays! Just kidding Booboo.
And, in case you missed the wonderful game Saturday night, WAR DAMN EAGLE!
