When you hold me in your arms so tight...

Things crossing my mind while listening to I'm Hooked on a Feeling:

I'm hooked on a feeling, I'm high on believing that you're in love with me...

- Preparing for a trip to CoMo during the weekend of the 19th. (no, not this next week but next month.) Will be seeing Mr. Ostrander, which should be fun. I'm not really sure how his apartment will be looking, but that's part of the fun. Hopefully Miri will be ok for the trip. She's been acting a slight bit strange lately. Miri, in case you wanted to know, is my lovely orange car.

- IRA Day, which was today, sucks hardcore for bankers. Not a whole lotta fun. And yes, I have been listening to a lot of Led Zeppelin, hence the whole lotta. But anyway, IRA day. I spent most of the day answering questions about IRAs and then proceeding to open them. The most frequent question, you ask? Well, it comes from people who don't know what a Roth IRA is and think they can go ahead and write it off on the their taxes. While the Roth is a lovely product, you cannot write it off on your taxes. End of discussion. Unfortunately, some guy thought he could and he swears his tax advisor said it'd be ok. Well, I said to him, you are more than welcome to open up a Roth IRA today, just don't be all pissed at the bank when the IRS comes to visit you and asks you what's up with your taxes. Ok, so I didn't say that. But I definitely thought it. Between the images of me banging my head against the pillar near my desk. Ack. IRA season, thank god your over.

- Evidently, Dan Brown's wife is named Blythe. That threw me for a loop. I was pretty sure that I lived in a one-Blythe universe and there could be no other with that name. Well, I guess not. Blythe Brown, no matter what you do, you will always be inferior to the Blythe I know and love. Sorry, but there's nothing you can do to take the thrown. It's over. Just change your name to Susie and move on.

- I'm playing on a softball team this summer. We're trying to give everyone on the team nicknames. Thus far, about half of the team has been assigned something, including a young man who's nickname is Pepto. Yours truly has the current nickname of Pumpkin. Perhaps my obsession with orange isn't paying the dividends I was hoping for.

- Easter tomorrow. A new beginning. Which is what Easter is all about. That and bunnies with eggs. It is most definitely an excellent combination. Well, time to head out for a little while. Enjoy yourself, compadres.
