OK, it won�t be bad; it will in fact be fun. I just know that I won�t actually see much of the game is all.

And by the way � are professional athletes not supposed to celebrate holidays or what?

I think John has been seriously bumming for the past few weeks and there doesn�t seem to be much I can do about it. First of all, he won�t even admit he�s bumming; I just happen to know him well and can tell. Secondly, whenever he is bumming he actively resists any attempts to cheer him up, make him feel better or even just offer a shoulder to lean on. He�s Mr. Independent Man. He is a rock. He is an island.

Of course, the real bummer is this affect on yours truly, which is to bring me right the fuck on down with him. As happened in last night�s telephone call. Not that I needed bringing down, after the day I had. But of course we didn�t talk about that.

Speaking of last night�What the hell happened on American Idol? Not that I am a huge fan of Kimberly C. or anything, but why oh why is Carmen still there???!!! Or Josh, since we all know my feelings about him. Both of them deserved to go before Kimberly, in my book. And especially Carmen, after her painfully excruciating performances for the last two weeks.

I hate this show.

One good thing I did yesterday was to go to the market and re-stock the healthy food shelves of my fridge. So I am now back swimming in yogurt and fruit.

Why did that sound more positive last night than it does this morning?

Hey, I actually wore a small bit of make-up to work this morning. Actually, I just did it because I�m wearing a dark color (sort of a Cabernet) and by comparison I looked even more pale than usual. So I brushed on some blush. Woo-Hoo!

The funny thing is how many people have already told me I look nice today or that I appear to be in a good mood cuz I look happy.

Sheesh. Do I usually look that bad?

And yes�I obviously do know how to take a compliment.
