Cookie Time
I just had the best conversation with Tony:
Me: I'm hungry.
Tony: Have a cookie.
Me: Where are cookies?
Tony: Right here (as he pulls out a secret stash of Thin Mints).
These are the office moments I live for. And this is the most exciting thing that's happened all day long.
I'm still hungry.

Welcome Back to Me
Really? Febuary 6 was the last time I blogged? What's today?
I could make up some hunkerfluffer about how I've been really busy at work (which is actually true), all my friends have been having intense personal crisises that have required my complete attention (not true) or that I'm sick of writing and am cursing the blogging gods (also not true).
There have been several hilarious moments in the past couple of weeks, largely because I've been really tired -- one of the best was the day at the gym when I tried to open my lock with my birth date (where's the 78? Where!?). A-Rod was traded to the Yankees (which isn't funny) although the press coverage of it has been. I went to the Syracuse-Georgetown game on Saturday - very fun.
I also figured out that I'm going to be traveling for most of May and June. My brother is graduating from college (what's up, Stephen!), Stephanie's getting married in Florida, Jeff's getting married in LA, and Ashley's getting married in Nashville. US Tour 2004 here we come.

At Your Age, People Go Both Ways
My mom said that to me last night. It made lots of sense in context, but taken completely and blatantly out of context, it's pretty darn funny. Hmm.
It's raining in DC and I had to de-ice my car again this morning. This is one of those days where it feels like the sun will never shine again -- like that scary movie that was on TV when we were little about the planet where it always rained, and there was one day of sunshine every 10 years or something, and on that day the mean kids locked the other kid in a storage room. And that kid knew the other kids were running through fields of blooming flowers in the sun, with the wind in their hair and dry warmth on their skin, and that a day like that wouldn't come again for years. And he was locked in the closet.
There are big fun weekend plans ahead, regardless. I'm going out to dinnah tonight, and tomorrow I think I'm going to see Miracle. I love a good sports movie -- especially if there's an exetended training montage. And lots and lots of cute boys. (Note to B. -- maybe this is why I think it will be good and you don't so much.) Kim's Second Annual Mid-winter Luau is tomorrow night, which promises lots of tropical/pasty white fun.
My cell phone is back, although it has occasionally been giving me a busy signal, which is a sound I have not heard in quite some time. I don't know anyone's phone number (except my parents). That's probably not going to change, even with this recent scare.
Tom Brady is on the cover of SI this week. I'm not givin' that to no one.

No Words
My Pats won. Again. I stopped breathing for a good portion of the evening. I'm so glad I was watching with Kristin, because we would have been on the phone the whole time anyway. Adam Vinitieri can do no wrong. He has sealed his place in the hearts of New Englanders forever. Again.
I love it.
The weekend in Atlanta was awesome. Lots of good food and shopping -- Stephanie bought the perfect wedding dress.
I managed to leave my cell phone in a cab at one point, and I'm still working on getting that back, so if you call me and it says the number has been disconnected, they're just kidding. I'll let you know when I'm back on the phone.
