Instead of chocolate...

Organizing my mood icons took way more time that it should have, but it was worth it, I think. Now I have pretty Darcy and Elizabeth mood thingies! Hurrah!
Quixotic would totally be the most awesome Scrabble word ever.
The phone system here is interesting - it rings 4 times then goes into the automatic directory, where the person then can chose the extention of their choice, so I'm not supposed to answer unless the person bounces out of voicemail. It is hard to remember not to answer the phone. Not that I'm complaining, mind, it's just hard, because it rings rather loudly.
My town's schools offer a breakfast program, but I usually feed Charlie at home, because I think the breakfast program is for kids who's parents may not be able to afford to feed them or something, and I didn't want people to think that was the case with me. However, it's probably really designed for people who just don't have time to deal with breakfast in the mornings, and this morning that's how I felt. I usually can get breakfast ready for Charlie, but with one thing and the other, I just didn't, so I asked him if he'd like to buy breakfast today.
He was thrilled. "Today and tommorrow?" he asked hopefully. I said sure, and gave him money for both days. All he could talk about on the ride to school was how he was going to go downstairs with Tyrell for breakfast.
I have a feeling this is going to become a habit.
Am I alone in really wanting American Idol to go away? I know some people on my flist like the show, but I just can't see the appeal. For those who like it, what is it that appeals? (In my case, I think I can't get past the snarky 'let's make fun of the bad people' part of the show.) And did anyone see The Simpson's parody of it this past Sunday? mmmmm...that's good satire.
Right. I will shut up now.
Thanks to everyone who friended my friend or said hi to her. You guys rock!
