A friend of mine is the Committee Chair for the Aurora Foundation. The homebase is in Tucson and the founder wants to bring it down here, but Sam (my friend) needs help. I went to an informational meeting on Saturday to find out what the organization’s all about and to see where I could volunteer my skills.
Which, turns out, will be in the form of press releases. Cool by me. This organization is going to do a lot for young girls with disabilities so I’m looking forward to working with them.
Spent a little time at Ulta (now I don’t have to go so damn far to get my make-up, Bare Esenctuals) and went to Best Buy and bought a new CD (Three Days Grace, 1st album).
On Sunday, the hubby and I went to see EAGLE EYE. Very action-packed. Shia has grown into quite a handsome guy. Despite his scrapes with the law. This movie brings to mind “How safe are our cell phones?” According to this movie, not safe at all. We’re in a technological age, where everything is run by computers, so anyone could have access to anything about you and your life. That was brought home, in detail, during a scene in this movie. And the fact that the military created the “villain”, so to speak, didn’t surprise me at all. I’m sure this was the #1 movie over the weekend–our theater was quite full–and it deserved to be. It was really great and it’s going to make you more aware. If not somewhat paranoid.
And laundry. What more can I say about that except it seems like I do it every Sunday. Maybe moreso lately because I like to let it get to the point of Leaning Tower of Dirty Laundry before finally caving in. And then I get mad when I have to do 5 baskets worth. And no, I don’t put them away the same day. At least, not all of them. Too tired.
So, one of our favorite shows premiered last night. A show of hands for Dexter fans out there. If you saw my previous post, then you know that Sundays and Mondays are our craziest nights of TV watching. And Suzy was kind enough to point it out, because really, I didn’t want the reality of knowing how many TV shows we watch. Thanks, Suze. Thanks so much. For y’know, breakin’ it down for me. Sigh.
So, how was your weekend?

Hey! I’m happy to help!
I’ve heard that Leaning Tower of Laundry called “Mount Washmore”… I think we ALL know that feeling! I use to do it all on one day, but with babies in Cloth Diapers I HAD to switch to a daily routine (for four years, we washed 10-12 loads per week). Now, we’re back to fewer loads, but I am still (more-or-less) in the daily habit. It helps, A LOT! Anyway, like I said, we all know your pain of Laundry All Day!
