Reading: Purple Cow by Seth Godin and Calm, Cool, and Adjusted by Kristin Billerbeck (re-reading)
Music in my head: Do I Make You Proud? Taylor Hicks. Sorry. I have NO control over that one. No idea how it got there, or why it won't. go. away. already.
Drinking: big tall glass of water
Wishing: I could sleep past 7 sometime soon. Correction: I wish little boys would do that, because then it would be NO problem for me at all.
Considering: extra big washer/dryer purchase. My dryer takes 3 hours, and my mom says that's bad. It's probably only slightly better than taking a hair dryer to a wet load of laundry, now that i think about it. Or exhaling big deep hot breaths.
Feeling: aah. who cares? feelings are overrated.
Goals: pfft.
To Do List: endless. or so it seems. I can't remember. i intentionally left the actual list in the car so i wouldnt' have to look at it tonight.
Hours gloriously spent in bathtub tonight: 1
Things Accomplished: 0
Challenge: PIck at least 3 of the above categories and list your "Snapshot" in the Comments. Ew. I just re-read mine, and i am seriously in a funk. Your turn!

I'm following Mary's lead and posting my answers on my blog too.
Three hours!!!??? Arrgh. I thought mine was bad at 1 1/2 hours. You need a new washer and dryer. Go get yourself a really nice set...the kind that can wash an entire king-size comforter. Go on...you know you want to. :)
[Random]You know, I've been a fan of Kenmore washers and dryers in general, but lately their marketing boggles the mind. There's this HUGE emphasis on the fact that you can get them in colors now, so, you know, "you can put them out in your living room like you've always dreamed and they'll match your couch, because who wants to hide them in a back room?" Um...okaayy... "Oh, and by the way, it's not really important, but we guess we'll mention that the dryer dries as fast as the washer washes." Excuse me?!? You have a dryer that dries that fast, and you're trying to sell me on Orange, Red, or Biscuit?? Sheesh...[/Random]

Considering: extra big washer/dryer purchase. My dryer takes 3 hours, and my mom says that's bad. It's probably only slightly better than taking a hair dryer to a wet load of laundry, now that i think about it. Or exhaling big deep hot breaths.
