Vacation!

Today officially starts my vacation! Although it was a short week (Monday was a Holiday), I kept very, very busy at working preparing for my time off. I still have a few things to do today from home (mostly send emails) for work, but I’ll spend most of the day cleaning up the house and packing for the cruise.

Hubs works 1/2 day. He was going to be done at noon, but he worked in one final patient to help out one of our docs, so Hubs won’t be home until after 1pm.

Last night we went through the TiVo and set things to record, deleted other shows, and reset series priorities (in light of the New Big Brother Season!).

An update on the Useless Clothing post: I feel the need to clarify what I mean by ankle socks. Mostly, I’m in total disbelief that anyone supported the use of ankle socks. They roll down, they end up covering  half my foot and are TOTALLY annoying and I’ve convinced myself that people who left positive ankle socks comments aren’t thinking of the same socks I am. Morgan commented about the “no-show” versus “ankle socks.” And I totally agree with her. When I say “ankle socks” I really mean the no-show socks, as seen here:

I HATE these kind of socks!

Now, what I do love (and wear) are what most people probably call Ankle socks, as shown here:

Even if the “leg” part is a little lower, I still wear them. There’s a big difference between these two pair of socks.

Does that bring anyone over to my side?

Hubs cracked up watching me read comments from people in support of ankle socks. I read, in total disbelief, about how much other people love them. But, I’m fairly certain that with the distinction, people will agree with me.

And, if not, I need new friends. Mostly because I judge my friendships based on whether people agree with me or not on the best fitting socks.

A few things on my to do list for the day:

Get money from the bank
Laundry/Pack
Charge portable electronic devices (Nintendo DS, Sirius Stiletto, DVD player)
Tidy up around the house
Call Cooper Camp to secure his reservation for next week (one day)
Call Aetna to bitch ‘em out for having my birthdate wrong which prevented me from picking up my RX last night
Finish up work stuff
Pedicure

Time to get my day started. Doopers and I have much to do!
