... the greatest accomplishment of your week is scoring the highest points in your family's fantasy football league. There's only one team in the league that is definitely better than mine, and that's my 2-year-old nephew's team (maintained by his dad). Since I played against him the first week, I've got a loss on my record. But I should be able to blow away everyone else in the league and finish up second place for the season. (That's some pretty confident talk for a girl who doesn't know squat about football players. I just like the game.)
... you get fighting mad when one of your husband's professors treats him unkindly. It's a long, gruesome tale that maybe Justin will share on his own blog. But when he told me, I seriously considered writing that professor an indignant email. I reconsidered, though, considering there may be some ramifications on my precious husband if I sent a nasty email to his professor.
... unrelated things at work get you singing songs by the Wiggles. I had never heard of the Wiggles until I went on vacation with my 2-year-old nephew (the same one who's beating me at fantasy football). Then I discovered this great Australian foursome who sing and dance, they're totally cute and my nephew is in love with them. So anyway, at work, the youth group has a basketball event they call Hoop-De-Doo. I saw a flyer for it and had a sudden brain wave. Don't the Wiggles sing a song called Hoop-De-Doo? In fact, they do.
Hoop-De-Do, Hoop-De-Do
I hear a polka and my troubles are through
Hoop-De-Do, Hoop-De-Do
This kind of music is like heaven to me
Hoop-De-Do, Hoop-De-Do
It's got me higher than a kite
Hand me down my soup and fish, I am gonna get my wish
Hoop-De-Doin' it tonight
I'm trying to convince the youth group to use this as their theme song this year. They don't think that's as great an idea as I do.
... you're sitting at work with things to do, but you'd rather be blogging! Wait, that's not sad. That's ok.

Joni,
What did you think of The Office last night? I must say, I was a bit disappointed! There were some funny moments, but it just ISN'T the same with Pam and Jim apart! :(
I know what you mean about the Wiggle thing. I can't get into my car without singing:
Toot Toot
Chugga Chugga
Big Red Car
We'll travel near
And we'll travel far . . .
Sometimes I'm amazed at how much my life has changed in the past couple of years.
I still sing the "Magic Button" Wiggles song.
"What's gonna happen when you push the 3rd button??
I'm gonna hopscotch!!"
"I like seashells..."
"Murray!!!"
Wikipedia has a great history on them.
The Office premier was pretty disappointing. That's a blog in itself. Was it the weirdly uncomfortable gay thing? I think so. They're running out of ideas.
so... does Jim know she cancelled the wedding??? Of course we knew they weren't going to get it together in the first episode of the season, they have to keep us on pins and needles...
www.youtube.com has some great Pam and Jim moments- and Dwight and Jim (just type it in the search for line. Oh yeah- and there's even a montage of Pam and Jim to Nack Lachey's "what's left of me." Kind of silly if you ask me. But we are hooked viewers, need I say more?
Yes, indeed, I was very disappointed with the Office season premiere. I'm planning a post about it, hopefully on Monday, so I won't say much now. But yeah, if it doesn't get better FAST, you won't catch me watching it anymore! But Jackie, to answer your question, I think Jim does NOT know that Pam cancelled the wedding. That revelation will be what brings him back to Scranton. At least, I hope so!
What I think is the best part about The Wiggles, is that now my husband is even singing their stuff! (You all should have seen him doing the dances with Patriot, too! HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!) Just this very afternoon as we were walking to the car from church, he busts out singing one of their songs. Great stuff.
