I have never been so happy to see an upcoming weekend in all my life. This week at work we have been conducting our annual inventory. It's my responsibility to input all those counts in the computer and then double check them for accuracy. There is a part of me that likes taking a count (I blame it on my control-freak side) and of course a part of me that likes being in charge (again see control-freak side) but there is no part of me that appreciates 11 hour work days. I am utterly exhausted.
{Then you add in the mind meld that was LOST this week, and basically every part of me is mush. I haven't really had a chance to read a lot of recaps of the episode, but I plan to. Maybe somebody has been able to make better sense of it than I have. All I know is I will never get over the genius of producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse. Never ever.}
This weekend is especially exciting, though, because it's my dad's birthday. We are going to leave our little town for some fun and excitement. And by fun and excitement I mean dinner and a movie. Dad really wants to see Crazy Heart, and I'm just gonna have to go with it because I have no idea if it will be good or not. I think my dad entertains the notion that since it's about a country singer it will be like Pure Country. I'm thinking that no movie that wins SAG awards and Golden Globes for it's acting will be anything like Pure Country. But I'm not telling my dad that. It's his birthday after all.

So that's really all I have. Oh, and go Colts, because after all I'm a Peyton Manning fan (I'm sorry but I don't think I'll ever get tired of watching the absurd Oreo commercial where he and his equally adorable brother Eli take down the twin Trumps. It's okay if you think that makes me weird. And even if he didn't make that commercial he is still the best football player who ever lived, ever, so again, go Colts).
Happy weekend all. Over at Andrea's there is more random.

Happy Birthday to your dad...and go Colts...we love Petyon in our house too!
I absolutely adore that commercial too!!!! It makes me so happy! It would be so special for both brothers to win the superbowl 2 years in a row!!!
I'm with you on being glad to see the week END! On Tuesday it felt like it should have been Thursday! Egads!
Happy birthday to your Dad and I hope you all have a great time and delicious meal and all!!!
I've never watched Lost, so I don't understand all of the hype but I have a girlfriend who is bonkers for it! :-)
And lastly, I would only like the Saints to win because of the city being decimated by Katrina AND I'd like to see the Colts win because they are right next door to me in Ohio! And I believe my son is rooting big-time for the Colts!
Have a great and blessed weekend, Kara!
I am sooo cracking up at that last paragraph ;)
Enjoy the time away from your little town. I went to the big city this mornin (oh dear let me get my southernness under control........) and went to a book signing and shopped at some fun shops likes Williams Sonoma and other things I could not really afford but it was a good time!
Happy Birthday to your dad! Enjoy your weekend :)
I need the weekend, too! Yay weekend!!
If I didn't get to this weekend A to the SAP, I was pretty sure my brain was going to explode. So, I'm with you!
It is so funny. I don't even watch the Superbowl. I know that it is a big deal, but I don't watch sports, not even for the commercials. You will have to do a "Lost post" for the Superbowl. That way I will know what happens.
Peyton (sighs)
Happy birthday to your Dad. A fun post!
