4:48 p.m. and counting...

As I embark on my 7th or 8th fruit roll up (lost count - I could look in my trash can, but I don't want to feel bad about myself), 3rd string cheese, and first Holiday 2005 coke that I told myself I wouldn't have...I think we can all agree that it's been a long Monday. After all, I don't usually write make two posts in one day, do I? Hmmm....?

I've also played COUNTLESS (see: so numerous as to be unable to apply numerical value to) games of SNOOD, and if you don't know what that is, you're better off. Every (slow) day I tell me-self that I'm not going to have a coke, I'll limit myself to 1 fruit roll up, and that I most certainly won't play SNOOD. And every day, I realize I'm a person lacking one admirable character quality: will power. But only on the little things! I'm really pretty good at the big stuff, I promise... Like, for example, I'm good at not burning down everything I see. I'm also good at not crashing my car (and/or a golf cart) into inanimate objects on purpose. See? I'm good at the big things.

Becki, I am intrigued about this thing you call SNOOD. Please tell me more, especially where I can find it as I also have many slow days at work!!
