Freakanomics

Got this book on cd for cheap and lovin it. I love reading different books and then throwing a book on in the car too. This one really gets the wheels turning. I have heard one of the authors (the one that reads on the cd) at 2 different keynotes and he is a funny guy. They have a blog so I'm going to check it out. http://freakonomics.blogs.nytimes.com/

I am overly stressed with all the political discussions and have no comment to share other than I can't wait for it to be over. Something I am sad about almost being over...

BB10. I love watching this show - its the voyeur in me. Thank god I don't subscribe to the 24 hour feeds or I'd lose my job, stop eating, end friendships and have a humpback. I do however check out what's going on by checking in with Morty, my savior. My girlfriend Amelie and I call each other during the commercials to discuss who we are lovin or not and why. We speculate and create theories. All this is done because we are bored but it keeps us from gossiping as much about real people. I was raised by women that watched soap operas every day and at times truly believed those characters were real, so my BB10 addition is not really that bad compared. As a little girl, had to be sure I was taken care of before my grandmomma's "stories" started or I was out of luck. Well when BB10 is on - don't even try to distract me and I only take calls from Amelie. Another thing good to know about me. The picture is starting to form and I can tell you, it's not always pretty.
