Wacky Wednesday

 One of the things I love the most about Auntie's Beads is the laughter that echoes down the hallways.  Everyone has a very distinct laugh.  Karla's is my favorite because it is so contagious (and quite loud).  Yesterday was a day when our department laughed A LOT.  I am not sure what was so funny, but laughing is definitely great stress relief.  Our department is full of creative types who are very high energy and a lot of fun.  It doesn't mean we don't get our work done; we just have fun while we work!  I think I was just having a wonderful day because I took a break from my weaving mania and returned to my first love--gemstones.  We got some new Lucky Jasper pieces in recently and I just couldn't wait to get my hands on them. 

What MOST excited me about yesterday was American Idol.  Just as I never thought I would be blogging, I also thought I would never watch that show.  I don't even listen to the radio much except for when I need my NPR fix; most of the time my iPod fulfills my music needs.  However, I have gotten absolutely hooked on the Idol.  How exciting that Sanjaya is finally gone!!!  No offense to anyone who loved him and voted for him (because apparently there were a lot of Sanjaya fans), but I couldn't understand why he was around for so long.  It is going to be tough now, though, because I like all 6 contestants remaining.  (Jordin is my favorite, but I would be happy to see any of them win.)  I just wish the show was on every night so I wouldn't have to wait until next week to see what happens!
