Try not to piss anyone off

So, today was a normal day. I actually got up a little earlier than i usually get up on tuesday mornings, becasue my brother came into my room and said he'd had a bad dream and wanted to know if he could sleep with me. I told him yes, but then of course when it was time to wake him up to get ready for school that meant i had to get up as well and since it was already like 7:20 a.m. there wasnt much time for sleeping anymore. I basically stayed in bed for about 20 minutes more and then finally got up and started getting going.

William slept with me practically the whole night last night which was nice to be able to wake up and see or feel his warm, furry little body sleeping on top of my blanket at various times throughout the night.

Anyway this morning at work i started out good, not tired at all, and then of course at about 11:30 a.m. i started getting a little tired and that's so hard to come back from. I fought through it and was able to have fun with the boys today. Of course today though, my employer asked me if i could start getting there at 9:15 instead of 9:30 a.m. because she's volunteered herself to go to the oldest child's school and read to them or something every frickin tuesday. That doesnt seem like much of a difference and in reality it is only 15 minutes, but that's 15 minutes. Thats a lot of time for someone who values their sleep as much as i do. Anyway made it through another tuesday, that's all i can ask for.

Tonight, me and the rest of my family, sans my sister who was at an acadeca meet, watched the two new episodes of "Meerkat Manor" we had recorded on the DVR and they were great. I love those little guys. And we watched the last bit of Monday night Raw that was also on the DVR. I know, i know, i should hang my head in shame for watching RAW much less admitting to actually watching it, but my brother got me into it and damn it that show isnt addictive. Everyone here at my house, against their better judgment and tastes, watches and loves Monday night RAW and Friday night SmackDown. Lol, its crazy.

Anyway after that my sister finally got home and she and i finally got to watch what we have been waiting months for, the season premiere of "Veronica Mars". It has been forever since I've watched a show that i actually cared a ton about, well aside from "House" which i adore, and couldnt wait for the season premiere of to air. This was so exciting. The post title comes from the opening lines of tonight's show spoken by Veronica in voiceover. I love Veronica Mars, not only because she and i share the same first name lol, (i know thats lame) but also because she is so adorable (or rather Kristen Bell is adorable) and she's so smart and sassy and savvy. I aspire to be a bit like her. There are often comparisons made between this show and Buffy the Vampire Slayer (ha, thought i could go through an entire post without mentioning Buffy, but alas I cannot resist) and some of the comparisons i can see. For me the major ones are the female in the lead role, who is not some submissive, ditzy, insider person living the charmed life until, gasp, her boyfriend cheats on her and she has to move on, or something as banal as that, and the other major similarity i can see is the witty dialouge. The snappy, witty, sarcastic humor and tossed about little one-liners are very reminisent of Buffy and i love that.

Of course, i think "Veronica Mars" rocks but it cannot hold a candle to Buffy and for me i dont think it ever will. Dont get me wrong i most definitly want VM to do well and carry on past this third season but the title for favorite show, show that changed my life and opened my eyes to so many things, will forever belong to Buffy, first and foremost.

One last thing, the new Target store opens in my city tomorrow. Words cannot express how excited i am about this. I absolutely love Target. It's my favorite store. Their stuff is cute, trendy but not too trendy and not super expensive. Plus, this particular location is much closer to me than the Target we have right now so thats good, because i am constantly going to Target and that eats up a lot of gas money. Anyhow, i hope i am able to go tomorrow and check it all out. "It takes some silence to make sound..." Jason Mraz. Goodnight.
