did anyone see Obama’s State of the Union address? more to my point, did anyone see bobby jindal’s response on behalf of the GOP? i happened to be home (near death!) so i was able to catch it on the telly. bobby jindal needs a speech coach or something. jon stewart on the daily show compared him to Mr. Rogers. I think he’s exactly like Kenny from 30 Rock. that’s all i kept thinking about when i was listening to him talk. poor him. it’s not easy to follow a speaker like Obama, but then to sound like a dope. i feel for him.
we had a bit of trivia at the office … only 4 countries have one vowel in them – chad, cypress, egypt, kyrgyzstan. but isnt’ “y” sometimes a vowel? especially in those instances, the ‘y’ makes a vowel sound – so i said that techinically, chad is the only country. i argued the point but i got shot down. boo.
the french guy (yes, he is STILL here) has some shiney new Bose headphones on. i think he’s listening to Celine Dion.
plans for the weekend include a whole lot of nothin’ and a lot of pajama wearing. the Brit has to work on sunday so i’ll be on my own. i’ve recorded some cheesy movies to keep me busy and i guess i’ll do some chores. if i were the Brit, coming home after working all day and my beautiful wife hasn’t moved from her position on the sofa, i’d get really narky. thank goodness he’s not at all like that and encourages me to be lazy all day (i swear to god he does. that’s why he’s so great). but i can’t help but feel guilty so i’ll do dishes, mop the floor, vacuum…something so it feels like i’m contributing.
i have to interrupt my train of thought because as i type this, some of my male co-workers are checking out each other’s back hair. wtf? and i’m supposed to take these guys seriously when they want something ASAP?
ew. can’t think after that. i’ll leave it at that and wish you all a lovely weekend. back on monday.
