I worked super briefly today before my boss told me to go home and take my wheezy, Kathleen Turner voice plus sneezy sniffles home before I infected the entire newsroom. I tried to be a hero, but it lasted for about 10 minutes before I succumbed and came home.

Ok. So, the plantar fasciitis is a total pain in the butt. I bought new running shoes today because my feet hurt so badly just standing around at soccer that I can’t even handle it anymore. The worst part is I don’t know if I’ll even get to run in these new shoes. By the time this clears up, I might just have to buy a fresh pair anyways.
So in my lookings about for info on...
AGH. I’ve had it up to here with this computer. One of my biggest peeves in the world is a computer that can’t keep up with my typing. Also: I want Photobooth so bad it’s becoming uncomfy.
I can’t wait to pay off my credit card and trade this clunker in for this piece:

Four Christmases
The film began production in December 2007, during the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike, which meant that no changes could be made to the script. (via Wikipedia)
That explains A LOT. I even had a moment during the movie where I thought, “God, did anyone review this script?”

I'm so out-of-date. It makes me depressed.
I can’t watch Netflix Watch Instantly on my Mac because my computer is too old.
I can’t watch Netflix Watch Instantly through my TiVo because my TiVo is too old.
God.
2008 in review
Today was the first day I could finally change out calendars in my planner. I’d been living out of two calendars for a little over two weeks, synchronizing them as I went. It was getting annoying.
The best part about switching calendars (other than the whole “fresh start” vibe), is looking over last year’s entries. Here’s some Meagan’s 2008 Calendar trivia:
