Yes, Yes. I'm Still Here.

I know, I know.  I suck.  Just what has been keeping me so busy that I can't possibly find time to put up a quick few sentences to let you know I'm still alive?

Work.  Simply put.  Work.

If I don't have time to jot things down during the day, it's hopeless. 

But today, I'm home on the couch with my favorite blanket watching bad reruns of Beverly Hills 90210 on cable.  So I have no excuse.

I had the second round of root canal done this morning, and despite Dr. Dean's claims that this one wouldn't be as bad as the last, I am in a helluva lot more pain.  Glad I went ahead and took tomorrow off, too.

In other news, we had a tiki/pirate/tropical party on Saturday night, and per usual, I freaked out about the happy hostess, which means I lost track of the cocktails and overdid it. Oy.  In talking with Todd about it, we've decided that I only seem to do this when we host.  I think it's the pressure of being the cute, friendly, social hostess.  I've always said I'm insecure - I'm not ashamed.  But that's just silly when people are telling me what a great hostess I am, and what a sweetie I am, and we even found a note Sunday morning that said I was an "adorable doll" and a "ray of sunshine".  So why on earth am I insecure?

Might have to talk to my therapist about that.  But now you can understand how proud I am of myself that I didn't ruin my own wedding reception.

Anywho, football preseason has started!

We beat the Titans on Aug 14 so that was exciting.  Our new coach, Carroll, seems to have really energized the team.  I didn't see the game this past Saturday, but we lost to Green Bay.  No biggie.  It's all good. 

Let's see....what else can I tell you?

I'm blanking out right now.  But at least I got something up here, right?

Go me.

I need painkillers.
