• So that daily thing didn't work out very well. I can't really say it's because I've been busy either. Yesterday was spent hunting down U2 tickets for my MIL and playing with my new Nintendo DS. I am completely behind the curve on this (and many other things) but the DS has finally showed me the path to sudoku and I am hooked. I'd done a few puzzles before but this time around I'm finding it much more satisfying. I could easily be convinced that it does make you smarter especially into your golden years. I cannot be easily convinced that U2 fans are smarter than Bowie fans.
• My other recent obsession is nail polish. I was a nail biter until fairly recently so while others got this out of their system in their teen years I am closing in on 30 and changing my polish 4 times a week, minimum. Right now I'm wearing Rimmel 60 Seconds in Camouflage, despite the name it's the perfect spring green and there is nothing concealing about it. Yay for slightly warmer weather and bright colors. For a short time I was ready to sing the praises of Sally Hansen's new line of Insta-dri polishes but I'm holding off. The color range is fantastic for drug store product but the formula gets too thick after you've opened the bottle about three times. If you've got an recommendations on the fast dry front I want to hear them.
• Speaking of spring, it is only a matter of time before we get to the good sports. While March Madness has no appeal for me it does mean that baseball season is coming. As soon as the first pitch is thrown I get a little ember of excitement for the Kentucky Derby. Normally I binge on race info the week beforehand but I'm starting early this year and plotting my bets now for the Florida Derby. Even after years of getting abnormally excited over these races I still bet based on the best names. This weekend my money is on Theregoesjojo.
