It’s Wednesday. I’m lethargic. So this is what you get! 
• My Spanish calendar gave me such a helpful phrase today—oops, yesterday—I’ve got sand in my bathing suit. Now, I know how to say that in Spanish. You know, for all those situations in which that phrase is vital.
• DecembeRadio is coming by for a meet ‘n greet tomorrow. I get to interview them afterward. Any suggestions for random questions to ask in the “ec 5-Minute Interview”? (BTW, I think they grew up listening to Skynard)
• I’m way past obsessed with my blog stats. I love seeing how many people visited every day and what they clicked on. And it’s cool that I’ve got readers all over the place. I’ve gotten hits from Europe and have some committed readers in places I’m pretty sure no one I know lives. So do me a favor and introduce yourself in the comments section. I need more friends. Because I’m a loser.
• I only have to work today and half of tomorrow this week. Then I’m off for a bit of fun: a Cards game in StL on Friday and hanging with the fam. My sis-in-law had to go to the emergency room yesterday (dehydration), but she and Eli appear to be OK, so hopefully, they’ll get to come to the game, too. Life lesson: DRINK MORE WATER! It’s good for you!
• My friend Brandy posted about her decreased mental capacity the other day. Proof of mine? I left my front door—door and dead bolt—completely unlocked all night long. Yep. To further cement my stupidity, I’m hooked on this who has the bigger brain game on Facebook. . . and I’m an idiot, apparently. If a whole section of the test wasn’t on math and was, say, concerned with vocabulary, I’d be doing better. It’s quite the blow to my self-esteem.
That’s all for now. Have a happy Wednesday!

See why I said I was addicted to that game?!
You’ve got to love the random sentences a foreign language calendar gives you. The calendar in my office has this quote for the month: “I would so rather be in prison” Kevin, The Office

I have sand in my swimsuit….wow. Who would you even say that to other than yourself?

I outscored Kel on Who Has the Bigger Brain once …it lasted about 3 minutes!

Crystal, I know! I mean, I know there are situations in which this phrase would be the only appropriate phrase. . . .but really. Were there not other phrases that might get more usage that would have been more helpful? Like “where’s the bathroom?”
I don’t think I’m ever going to get above “stupid” stage on the Bigger Brain game. My brain must be TINY!

Did you know that you can sign up with dictionarydotcom to have the “Spanish word of the Day” e-mailed to you?
I too am obsessed with my blog stats. I would also like it if all my “stealth” visitors would introduce themselves. I love getting comments!
Blessings!

Question for DecembeRadio:
Are there any songs on Satisfied that ended up sounding very different from how you originally heard them in your head?

Blog stats, eh? Well.
I aggregate you from West Virginia (cuz I’m spending the summer at my parents’ house there).
And yes, we have met: I’m the Vandy undergraduate who was in your Judson lifegroup during the 2007/2008 school year.
Cheers!
