Long time, no blog.

Well, today I might be forcing it. When it dawned on me that I hadn't blogged at all in October, I realized I was pretty pathetic. And had to rectify it. Before October ended. Which leads me to now.

Excuses? Yeah, I could give you some. They're all pretty lame though. For instance: I'm newly pregnant, and going downstairs to the basement (where the computer is) makes me sick. See? Pathetic.

What's that you say? Now you feel guilty for bugging me about not blogging in a month? My, how the tables have turned.

Well, now that we're even on the guilt-spectrum (and I'm almost over my "morning" (=all day) sickness), I can get down to business.

Today is Halloween. It's the day when people like me go to work but don't actually get much done. Oh, and we go to work dressed as someone else. Which helps, because then we can say it was the alter-ego that wasn't being productive. Today my alter-ego was Sarah Palin. I'm a brunette that owns a power suit, so it was an easy mark. I even went the extra mile and made a price tag for my suit jacket: Neiman Marcus, $75,000. It was a small detail, but those who noticed it were pleasantly rewarded with a trademark Tina Fey wink. The response I received the most from my costume? "Where did you find a John McCain pin in Ann Arbor?" Touche.
