just a general update

i hate facebook ads.  they're stupid, un-funny, and probably ineffective.  here's the ad that keeps showing up in my facebook sidebar:

yikes.  i bet a ton of girls click on this.  but i already know what andy's dna + my dna would look like: a baby. probably pink and wrinkly. i mean, they all look the same.  

here is what's up with me these days:

• went to the dentist this afternoon and had three cavities filled.  4 hours later i am no longer drooling out of the side of my mouth.

• andy's condo has been on the market for almost 8 months and today he had his first showing.  i realize there is not a lot of interest in 1-bedroom condos but still, we're a little disappointed more people haven't come by to see it.  yes, he has a realtor and it's listed in the MLS.  and no, we don't need to paint or redecorate or hire "stagers."  see, the problem is getting people interested in the condo - not what it looks like on the inside.  perhaps if we had ten people look with no offers we would make some changes.

• gearing up for the 3rd annual gurley trot - 5k race/walk/fun-run on thanksgiving morning at my mom's house in dalton.  if you wanna know the story click here.

• i lost the race for boiled custard.  john beat me to it. i received photo via text message for proof. so far i've consumed less than a gallon of boiled custard.  i anticipate reaching the gallon mark by the week's end.

• my team "nasty nest" is in first place in our hockey league.  i'm about to throw down here in a bit, our game is at 9:10.  so i best be headin' out...

on an unrelated note: remember the cruise ship disaster from last week?  passengers aboard the carnival splendor were without power/working toilets/etc.  i was on that ship exactly one year ago, and we too had an interesting event, although it was unrelated to the workings of the ship. i bet some people were freaking out hard core.  apparently they gave everyone a full refund and a huge discount on a future cruise.  although something tells me these people won't be cruising on carnival, like, ever again.
