Miscellaneous [wanna be] Monday

It's that time again~

• OMG. I just saw that my boyfriend John posted on his blog [thank god for Google Reader.] This is big folks. Go and read it. He posted to support Jessica Simpson since the press has been ripping her to shreds due to the Cowboys loss. I know most people hate JS just as much as they hate JM, but I love them both. If I met them in real life, I'm positive they'd want to be BFF with me. Nate wouldn't mind the JS part of the deal, I'm sure:)

• Just got home from my haircut [more in a bit] and Nate was talking on the phone to a prospective renter! They saw our ad and wanted to see the apartment asap. That makes three people so far---the one who toured on Sunday, the one who emailed me, and this couple. So they came right over [after we cleaned the place like tasmanian devils] and I think they liked it. The funniest part? We didn't know what to do with Henry, so I tried to put him in my car for the visit. Well after waiting for about 10 minutes, I freaked out and exclaimed, "I can't do this to my baby!" all dramatic and stuff. I just pictured him shivering and looking around for me like a lost child. So I ran outside and rescued him and he hid under the bed the whole time anyway. And now he's all high strung after the evil strangers tried to pet him. The horror!

• My haircut: it was way overdue. I haven't gotten a trim since the initial chop in November. My girl is really good but she keeps trying to use a diffuser on my hair, and it ain't working. It makes my hair look a frizzy mess. Next time I'm going to speak up and ask for a nice blowout. But the little neck massage she gave me at the beginning of the appointment was to die for. I heart salons sometimes.
  

• Nate had to work at his museum job today, while I had off [role reversal, much?] Here is the conversation we had when he returned home:

J: So how was your day? What do you do at work?
N: It was fine. The worst part is the butterfly exhibit.
J: Why?
N: I have to make sure the little kids running around don't let both doors open at the same time. If the doors are open butterflies will get out and all hell breaks loose.
J: So did hell break loose?
N: Yup. The damn kids wouldn't listen to me and a bunch of butterflies got out.
J: [snickering uncontrollably]
N: So I had to catch a bunch with butterfly nets.
J: You seriously caught butterflies today at work?
N: Shut up. It's not funny.

Can't you just picture my hubby yelling at the kids for letting the butterflies out, and then madly chasing them around with nets? It's almost too much to handle.

• Nate wants his own laptop. The conversation makes me twitch a little bit. Do you have any idea how much a new Mac laptop goes for these days? Absolutely not. Not going to happen. Especially not before I get my wedding DVD and wedding album. I've been waiting patiently for those two items for months. He can't just announce his need for a major purchase like this, can he? When we move out of this apartment we'll have a lot more money to handle and I know it's going to be hard saving it. But we HAVE to. I'll break out into hives and start foaming at the mouth if we don't.
  

• No pictures on this one. I think it's a first!
