Hello, Quickly!

Hello, Quickly!

Yes, consider that subject line to be said in the vein of "Hello, Cleveland!" from the too-brilliant-for-words movie, This Is Spinal Tap. If you haven't seen it, run, now, and get it from Netflix or your movie purveyor of choice. The DVD version has THE FUNNIEST commentary track I've ever heard. The actors do the entire thing IN CHARACTER! I feel like I've already blogged about this. Forgive me if I'm repeating myself. It's just a REALLY FUNNY MOVIE, and it bears seeing if you dig music.

So, I'm here, but just for a moment. I have meetings and a photo shoot and all sorts of stuff dragging me out of the office today (photo shoot, I might add, is of one of my bands... not of me). I say dragging because I have SOMUCHWORK to do that I'm stressed out that I won't be in the office to do some of it. Which is why I've already been on the computer for a few hours this morning... Frantically trying to get ahead, which we all know is an exercise in the impossible. I only have a few minutes before I have to run upstairs and finish getting ready. Not enough time to start a work task, but just enough time to babble here for five minutes. Good thing I type fast.

It's going to be a busy weekend. Mike and I are headed up to Boston to see Sister Hazel, which is a work trip for me. While we are there, we are having dinner with my Crowded House/Neil Finn fan pal, Sarah. When we get back, we promptly head off to Melissa G's birthday celebration on Sunday. It's going to be a very busy weekend.

I'm a bit freaked out when I look at my holiday list and realize how far behind I am on everything this year. I'm one of those freaky people who is usually done with her gift shopping by Thanksgiving. And this year? Not even close. I need to get a move on, but the soonest I can do anything shopping-esque is not until NEXT weekend. I hope to finish then, but we'll see.

Ok, my five minutes is up. Better scoot. Have a good day and a good weekend all!

So funny that you mention Spinal Tap because yesterday my dad was telling me that had him at a 5 on a cardio rehab machine that goes to 10, so I wrote him back and told him, "Oh out here in Oregon we have those machines, but they go to 11...that's one harder." LOL! My favorite part of the movie! Well, that and the mini stonehenge.

Commentary in character must be great. I haven't seen that part yet - the magic of DVDs. :-) As for holiday shopping - gift certificates are gonna be hot this year. Trust me. :-) :-) :-)
