In case you missed it, I very briefly posted a link to my other secret blog with a warning that the post would expire very soon. Sure 'nuff, it's gone now. Back to just me and my boring ol' financial life....

After a very fitful nap (#*&% phone and email ping), I got up to make some chicken noodle Cup o' Soup. While the water was boiling for the soup, I stumbled out to the garage to get a Pepsi from the trunk of my car (still from the original 12 pack -- that's how little I drink). I was pleasantly surprised to find it nicely chilled already. No need for ice or anything. Maybe I should unplug the fridge each winter and instead just drive around with all my food in the trunk of the car!

(I think I have a fever and am becoming delirious now....)

Yes, Mini Me made it back to school after a lovely spring break and left me with her cold. Between my achy tooth and clogged sinuses, my head is one big stuffed-up mess. And, tomorrow is the first of my two formal dinners that I mentioned last month.

It should be lovely:

My husband: "This is my wife, Karen."

Me: Achoooooo.... Pardon me for blowing snot all over your tuxedo...."
