ready for the weekend

why oh why do the last few hours of tonight seem to be ticking away as slowly as can be? why can't it just be friday already? ok, friday at 4:30 p.m. after work is finished would be oh so much better, but at this point 12 a.m. friday would be ok too! after the week i had, i'd take friday anytime, anywhere. i'm just sooo ready for the weekend!

just a few things before i head off to bed. were these things so important i couldn't wait to post tomorrow? nope, but i'm way too excited about the one to not post it tonight. the other one is just along for the ride but is really funny and worth the extra 5 minutes it will take to post it.

first let me start my saying...woo hoo!!

abc announced the new bachelor for the next season. it will be jason mesnick (divorced estate planner, 32, single dad to Ty, 3) from last season's the bachelorette! in case you don't follow, don't recall, or plain just don't care, he was one of the final two vying to win the heart of deanna pappas. unfortunately she chose that joker jesse csincsack leaving jason heartbroken and confused. i was a fan of jason's following the very first episode last season and rooted him on to the end. i actually cried (you can verify that with my husband who was a bit weepy himself) when told jason she loved him, but loved someone else more.

so, as much as i swore i would never, ever watch another episode of the bachelor/bachelorette franchise, it looks like i've signed on for yet another season as i am eager to watch jason call the shots this time around in his quest for love!!

ok, now for a funny video clip. i received this this afternoon via email from a friend and it was just too funny not to post and share as i know many of you are animal lovers yourself. i laughed and i'm sure many of you will get a chuckle out of this too (whether you like animals or not).


i also want to wish bobbi and chris high a happy anniversary! they were married 4 years ago today...best wishes for many more!! i think this calls for a date night. let me know if you need a babysitter!
