Randomness

- I displayed my butchness yesterday by replacing the bulb in my driver-side headlight last night. Of course, it took about 15 minutes to remove all that grease from my hands, and a little bit still remains under my fingernails no matter how much I go at them with a nail file.

- My office will hold an "Appetizer Fiesta" tomorrow so tonight I will be cooking in my tiny kitchen. Okay, not exactly cooking as all the ingredients are cold and the dish goes in the refrigerator when done, but you get the idea. Tasty Tortilla Roll-Ups, thanks to the folks at All Recipes.

- I have received a grand total of two ChristmaKwanzUkkahDan cards: one from Robert (a.k.a. Mr. Happysad) which arrived with a wonderful CD of music (thank you! I've listened to it too many times already!); the other from Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez featuring her resting comfortably in a beach chair with her kitty. I mailed fifteen cards at the beginning of the month.

- Is anyone else annoyed by that Cingular ad featuring the morons who can't get the lyrics to The Clash's Rock the Casbah correct? It's a sad day for music....

- Why is it that home improvement shows seem to have the hunkiest men on TV? And where can I sign up to have them fix my home?

- Saturday, I'm giving my Sweetie an early Christmas present: we're going to see Matthew Bourne's Edward Scissorhands at the Ahmanson. Don't worry; he already knows I'm taking him. He'll be driving, after all.
