I had coffee this morning. STRONG COFFEE. Now, normally I have green tea or maybe black tea so you can imagine how I'm bouncing off the walls now. Here are some thoughts.
Gecko (This is not a commercial for Gieco..it actually is about Geckos.) We have a really cute Gecko family that lives in our garden wall. They are really colorful and not so huge they gross you out. However, today I saw one scurry UNDER THE SIDING. Ok, now, I don't mind them in my garden wall. But NOT in my house. Sooo.. we'll need to fix that.
iPod+Louder music+new techno CD+coffee=Good workout! My elliptical workout kicked butt this afternoon!! I haven't had as great of a workout as that in a long time. Now, normally I'm dragging myself out of bed at 6:15 to do it, so that's why. But it was the best 45 min. workout I've had in quite some time.
Slugs Geckos don't give me the creeps, but slugs sure do. We had a lot of rain yesterday for the first time in quite a while. We really needed it. But there were so many slugs out last night. For fear of sounding like a girl, 'EEWWWW!!!' And these aren't teensy tiny ones either, they are good 4-5 inches long. I think they love the water but all of a sudden their dirt home is being invaded by sand and other chemicals from our patio... so they were out in full force last night. Let me say again, EWWWWWW!
Pretend Play Maddy's been loving pretend playing lately. She feeds her dolls, puts them to bed and then says 'shhh!' and puts her finger to her lips. She wipes their nose when she sneezes. It's been REALLY CUTE. It's a fun stage, I tell ya!
Pottery 2 I called today to figure out which class I should sign up for, Pottery 1 or pottery 2. I mentioned that I have experience on the wheel but that was 10 years ago. So they asked me what I've made on the wheel and if I remember the steps for wheel throwing... I gave them my list of what I made and the steps of throwing a pot and they said I should most assuredly take Pottery 2.
My car passed inspection. It is 9 years old so I'm never really sure if it will or not. I'm glad it did since Maddy and I have playgroup tomorrow, a play outing on Wednesday and ballet class on Thursday. Given the fact she sleeps better!!
Ok, well, I have a few things to do before she's up from her nap. More tonight, I'm sure.
Tea of the day: Green tea, but only after a good strong cup of coffee
WO of the day: 45 min. elliptical

I hate slugs too! They seem to be huge in Virginia, and I don't get it. They're long and nasty and heaven forbid you step on one - it makes a huge mess. The first time I saw one here, I was like OH. MY. GOODNESS. YUCK.
I empathize.
