Tidbits of my Saturday:

Sex and the City: The Movie came out on Tuesday. Naturally, it has been in my posession for a few days now. I'm watching it. Big just officially proposed, and there are about two minutes left. I liked it better than the first time. Whatever, Big. I don't love you, but I guess I like you.

I want my hair to look like SJP's. I haven't colored it in three months. My roots are funky and I have a box of dark blonde color in my bathroom. I've had it for about a week now, and it's taking a lot to not touch it. :)

I want a Mac.

I've had a pounding headache all day. I thought it was my ponytail (I hardly wear ponytails because of this.), but I've had it out for hours, and my head is just throbbing. I never get headaches, so I'm not a fan of this. Perhaps because I didn't have my caf fix today. Hmm.

I miss my husband.

I want to live in NYC.

Happy Birthday, brother! (It's Jon's 29th today. Old man! Hehe.)

♥♥♥
Love you!

When I got home from saying goodbye to Jarrod on Tuesday, I wrote a letter to him and mailed it that same day. He got it today. When he called tonight, he said, "Hey. I got a letter today from some girl.", and I laughed. He said, "I came back to the barracks and there was an envelope on my bed, and I almost sat on it, then I was like, 'Who is sending me mail?', and it was from my little sweetheart!". Hehe. I don't know - something gushed inside me when he called me his "little sweetheart". Never heard that one before. :) He thanked me for it three times. Little things...

"It's my belief that this is exactly the time when the American people need to hear from the person who, in approximately 40 days, will be responsible for dealing with this mess."

Agreed, Obama. Really, who do these two think they are?

I saw my breath this morning. Samson's been good about getting up when I do in the morning, but last night I worked the late shift, so he was only eating and drinking right before I went to bed. Needless to say, he was up at 4:30am, whimpering to go outside. It was obviously too dark then, but just a few minutes ago when we went out again, sure enough...I could see it! Autumn. Hooray! :)

Day one was okay. It's always the worst, I think - getting back into the routine of being by yourself. Getting used to falling asleep alone, doing everything - cooking, cleaning, taking care of the dog, running back out to the car when you've forgotten something. :) (I forgot my cell phone in my car last night.) I was dreading work, but it wasn't too bad. Today should go faster, though, and Steph is coming over tonight for a little.

I ordered my SATC movie and volume two of the soundtrack via Amazon. If you recall, I wasn't a huge fan of the way the movie ended. Megan (who went with me to see it and loved the movie) said, "Whoa whoa whoa, I thought you hated that movie. Why are you going to buy it?" and my response was, "As a fan, it's my duty to buy it anyway." Hahaha. Okay, I didn't hate the movie. Just the ending. But I am excited to watch it again...probably this weekend. This whole apartment needs to be cleaned top to bottom, and I want to get some fall decorations to make it a little happier in here. :) That's my plan for the weekend in.

Hope you guys are all good! I have to go get ready for coffee and work...I hit the snooze button three times this morning, and I usually don't hit it at all. Yikes. :) Bye!

I'm not ready to say goodbye again so soon. :(

We are getting up at 4:30am to drive him to base. From there, he goes to the airport. Bye-bye 'til Christmas, baby. ♥

Please keep him (and us) in your prayers. The next three months will be long.

WAHHH, SARAH PALIN.

The Obama and McCain campaigns have agreed to an unusual free-flowing format for the three televised presidential debates, which begin on Friday, but the McCain camp fought for and won a much more structured approach for the questioning at the vice-presidential debate, advisers to both campaigns said Saturday.

At the insistence of the McCain campaign, the Oct. 2 debate between the Republican nominee for vice president, Gov.Sarah Palin, and her Democratic rival, Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., will have shorter question-and-answer segments than those for the presidential nominees, the advisers said. There will also be much less opportunity for free-wheeling, direct exchanges between the running mates.

McCain advisers said they had been concerned that a loose format could leave Ms. Palin, a relatively inexperienced debater, at a disadvantage and largely on the defensive.
 

The wrangling was chiefly between the McCain-Palin camp and the nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates, which is sponsoring the forums.

Commission members wanted a relaxed format that included time for unpredictable questioning and challenges between the vice-presidential candidates. Last week, it rejected a proposal from advisers to Ms. Palin and Senator John McCainof Arizona, the Republican presidential nominee, for few if any unfettered exchanges. Advisers to Mr. Biden say they were comfortable with either format.

Jarrod won't be deployed longer than October 2009! :)

This is sad, and not something an army wife needs to read two weeks before a deployment.

I missed his call tonight. :(

I'm okay, though. Had a good day, and Sammy got to play with Calvin tonight at my mom and dad's. Is it the weekend yet, though?

Ahh. Someone from P.O.D. left me a MySpace comment. Guess they saw my "status" about being stressed. Aww!

Lookie:

"Mom, is that a bird in your mouth?"

I'm registered republican. I didn't plan on voting. I don't pay as much attention to politics as I should - I've said that before. I've heard Obama speak more than McCain...but I'm watching the Democratic National Convention, and I think I really like this guy. A lot.

Everyone say, "Hi, Samson!". :) We love him. He's absolutely precious.
