I can tell coming up with post titles is not going to be fun

I really hate titling things. I can never come up with anything and I always feel put on the spot about it. I guess I don't really have to do the title first, it's just that the title blank is at the top of the page and I always feel compelled to do things in order. I even have elaborate rules for making up an order to follow when none exists. It can be a little bit debilitating, because I don't do things that need to be done because for whatever reason I can't do all of the things that in my mind I'm supposed to do first. Maybe next time I'll try to compose my blog post first and then come up with the title.

I'm still sleeping like a baby. This blog is better than drugs. So now I'll just blog instead of cleaning my house. The Boy is at work, and he's still liking it. He's gotten himself up and ready completely on his own all week. As soon as our alarm goes off, I think, "I need to go wake up The Boy." But he's way past old enough to do it himself and I don't want to start enabling him again. So I resist, and the urge passes, and soon enough I hear the hot water heater kick in and I know he's fully capable of being a grownup when I just back off and let him be responsible for himself.

I can't believe I forgot to mention yesterday, but as of Wednesday night there is no more Sand-in-my-gina! My gina is now Sand-free! It actually happened a week earlier than I expected. I felt confident all along that despite the best efforts of Howard Stern, votefortheworst.com, and tweenage girls, Sand-in-my-gina wouldn't make it to the top 5, but I thought he would very likely make top 6. I am so happy to have been wrong! Now I only have to mute one contestant instead of two. Hopefully Chris will go next and then I can give the mute button a rest. I'll go on record now saying Jordin is going to win this thing. Sure, Melinda is the best, but Jordin is amazing and getting better every week, and I think she is more marketable than Melinda. Maybe I should change my post title to No More Sand-in-my-gina.

I've moved things around again. The streaming Jack Handey doesn't seem to be changing every day, and it doesn't have many of my faves so I'm back in control by having a daily quote of my own choosing on the sidebar and I've moved the streaming quotes to the bottom of the page.
