By the end of today, I will have been on 3 separate flights and 3 different time zones. I left Vegas Saturday at 11:30 pm. Landed in Charlotte, Sunday at 6:00 am. Flew to Philadelphia and landed at around 8:30 am. I spent the day with Lisa and Audra and the evening with my parents. Now, I have repacked my bags and am heading out to the airport. I am due to arrive in Chicago around 11:30pm.
Audra talked me into reactivating my eHarmony account. Why I bothered I don’t know. It’s not like I even have time to change my clothes much less find time to court a man on the Internet. (I am still wearing what I wore in Vegas that last night).

Trent “The Dream King” isn’t performing this week. Darnit. I was really looking forward to seeing him perform again. I’ve been working during the day. At night, a group of us get together for dinner. I’ve seen the Belagio water show each night. Perhaps tonight I will see if I can catch a show.

I just want everyone to know that I, Donna, JUST ROCKED THE VOTE!

And I met my State Representative, Scott Petri and he was really tall.

I got excited. Thought I found it on my bookshelf. But no. It wasn’t Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. It was If You Meet the Buddha on the Road, Kill Him

I am madly trying to get ready for Vegas. I was certain I had a copy of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. A few years ago I unsuccessfully attempted to read it. Coach Opp recently suggested it and I thought it would be something I can do on the flight to Vegas. Oh well, I guess instead I will read How to Make Anyone Fall in Love with You and do crossword puzzles.

Last night Lisa and I went to the Petrush’s house to take care of little Mieux and then we watched The Cat People. Years ago I watched it on Channel 17’s Up All Night Movieathon. I remember it being extremely disjointed. Apparently the film was heavily cut so most of the story had been lost. Darn that Nastassja Kinski for having to walk around naked so much! The uncut version wasn’t much better. I think there must be a 4 hour cut around somewhere.

So much to do. I am not looking forward to sitting on an airplane for hours and hours. I am not looking forward to working a trade show for days. Hopefully I will be able to catch a Trent Carlini Show. FINGERS CROSSED (and toes too!)

Just bought a 512MB memory card for my little mp3 player and a 512MB thumbdrive for me.

I know who will get my vote tomorrow. It is hard for me to believe some people are undecided.

A pirate walks into a bar looking uncomfortable. The bartender says, “Hey, you have a steering wheel sticking out of your codpiece.” The pirate petulantly replies, “Argh! It drives me nuts!”

Too much candy swimming in my belly. I feel sick!

Two Trick or Treaters showed up at the door. Little girls in their early teens dressed like punks.

We started to get ready around 8:00. Lisa dressed like a punk, Audra as a nerd and I dressed as a swinging 60’s chick. Our outfits matched our personalities well. At 9:00 we headed out the door. New Hope and Lambertville were empty. That is what happens when Halloween falls on a work night.

The Inn of the Hawk had a band playing and all around the bar sat people in crazy Halloween costumes. We ordered drinks and talked with the locals.

After about an hour, I leaned over to Audra and said: “Audge, we are some pretty nice fisherladies but this darn pond has absolutely NO FISH!” Audra agreed. It is a nice bar and the people are lovely but in terms of eligible men, the place was empty.

At around 11:30, we made our way home. I washed off the cat eyes and white lipstick and fell asleep almost immediately. I had dreams of my grandfather picking me up and spinning me around. Now it is time to work. I wonder if there are any ponds around here that do have fish?
