Whew. It's only been a week. I was afraid I'd find it's been two!

This week's been crazy. I'm back at the Chronicle, but on a day-to-day basis. The person who usually does the calendars (is it bad that I really want to call her the "Calendar Girl"??) is out sick and well...they can't afford to get behind. It's cool for me. It pads my wallet, I get to see my former co-workers, and I get none of the stress. It's a win-win-win situation. Except I'm doing calendars. I'll admit...it's bearable. Maybe because it's only my life for a few days.

(I think I have Calendar Girl on the brain. I have to interview Neil Sedaka tomorrow morning. I'll be studying him tonight. Yes, I'm nervous. It ought to be interesting.)

I think I've gotten lazy. I came home tonight tired, but before I sat down to blog I swept the kitchen, vacuumed, started supper and dug my kitchen table out from under a mountain of papers. (The desk is next.) It makes no sense. When I'm home all day, I have the hardest time making myself pick up a broom. Working does a body (and apparently a house) good, I tell ya!

On a different note, the other night Robb took me and the kids out to dinner with two of his three. It was the first time I met the younger one, and first time our kids met each other. His kids seem like really good kids. Someone once told me good kids come from good parents. The more I learn about this guy the better I like him.

And the four of them got along really well. Catie later declared Justin (Robb's oldest) to be just like Christopher. Apparently, while Robb and I were away from the table getting dessert, Christopher was picking at her. She turned to Justin and said "See what I have to put up with?" He laughed at her and said "What? I don't see anything wrong." Oh, boy!

Okay...I've got to finish supper. I'll try not to be gone so long. I know I keep saying that, but...you know... ;-)
