Varying levels of excitement
Apparently Denny and I are the only people enjoying Heroes this season. It seems to be getting poor reviews, but I don’t care. I liked the old-timey Japan sub-plot, the new characters, and the fact that just because someone dies, it doesn’t mean you’re never going to see him/her again.
An unrelated-yet-exciting anecdote:
I was sitting in a meeting this morning, and I touched my hair and felt what seemed like a big booger. Fortunately, it was not. Denny’s cold has been making him cough a lot at night, so in an effort to avoid sleeping on the couch or guest room (which I have offered to do but he won’t let me) or demoting him to the couch or guest room (which he has done, but I feel bad about it), I decided to try out the ear plugs Denny got for pre-Christmas.
They are squishy silicone things, and as I fiddled with them it crossed my mind that it was sort of like squeezing tiny breast implants. They worked pretty well, but apparently a glob got stuck in my hair and survived my morning shower and hair-comb.
Wait, maybe this wasn’t exciting. It was the most exciting thing that happened to me today, except for a prenatal appointment in which I got the results of my gestational diabetes test. I would like to publicly thank my pancreas for being freaking AWESOME. You go, little pancreas. My blood pressure was also fine, Bisquito has a nice heartbeat, and appears to be head-down. Let’s hope he/she doesn’t get any wacky ideas over the next 10 weeks and we’ll be in business.
