Milling and The Tivers
Wednesday, November 19, 2008 at 09:14AM The coffee drip is in full effect, as I continued yet another full night of cat-napping. Sleep for 3 hours, up for 2, sleep for 1, up for 1. It's like pregnancy without the peeing. And with milling. Like an old man reading junk mail, I wander about, checking. Is the alarm is on? Are the kids breathing? Did I drink enough water today? I would start working, but then I know I'd never make it back to sleep. So I MILL...around the house, and on the internet reading the news. And by 'news', I mean reading the status of my friends on Facebook. I talk to DD about 5 times a day, but now I know that she is "watching her taped shows". That Katy is "dreading a plane ride". That "Kristi ran a marathon", "Paul hates Taco Bell" 5 hours ago. And that my husband "needs a beer". When there are no more left, I move on to the quizzes. Because at 2:30 in the morning, somehow it becomes crucial to find out which 80s movie best describes me. Mine happened to be The Princess Bride, which I promptly deleted for inaccuracy. Everyone knows it should have been The Breakfast Club, or Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. And alert the authorities because that's not the only faulty quiz luring late-night millers into a web of lies. Because while I liked the result of "Sanguine" in the "What word best describes you" quiz, the questions were a little...well, questionable.
What would be more characteristic of you? A. Pack your bags and leave on an unplanned holiday. OR B. Feel terrible that you can't solve world hunger and write a poem about it.
And that was word for word. HMMM... Let me think... pina colada on the beach, OR crying into a notepad about how I cannot save the world. How to CHOOSE.
What best describes you? A. Confident and self assured. OR B. Rational and mediocre
Again, self assured? Or mediocre? Which one do I pick?!! And am I more of an elephant or a donkey...OR a lemming???
ANNNND, Welcome To My Night. I'm sure there will be more to come as my body continues the process of morphing into a bat. Now why wasn't THAT one of the choices on the quiz!
And for all of you who are saying, "Sheesh, just get to the pictures!" Here you go. Another cute family: Kristian and Jason, and their babies. I met Kristian at the United Lending shoot a few months ago. It was so great to see them again. And fun mixing it up with their dogs too. Thanks you guys!
Have a nice hump day peeps! :)

Hope you can get a good night sleep soon.
I like the dog's headshot, way to let them have their claim to faim.
You made me feel guilty though. I would have been on the beach with the pena colada crying into a notepad about not being able to solve world hunger. "Burp." Then ordering a tall stack of onion rings to appease my grief.
That family - adorable.
Great pics...too cute with their dogs!
