I don't know if it's just because it's Monday morning or if it's more because I am so excited for this week that I can hardly stand it but I'm having a hard time focusing and getting anything done today.
The Tour de France starts this Friday. I watched a bit of a preview last night with Sarah (yes, I have somehow gotten her excited about international cycling) and I am giddy.
When drinking my 9:30 Dr. Pepper this morning I thought I tasted a hint of prune juice. Dr. Pepper is so good, I'm glad the prune juice is minimal. The last time I had a full glass of the stuff it resulted in me being down a pair of knickers and my bowels taking on a life of their own.
Speaking of knickers, why do the British pronounce the word "aluminum" "alu-minium"? I don't get that. Now I am no pronunciation maven like my good friend Becki Howard (really funny post) but I can't make sense of it all.
My family comes in town on Thursday. I am lousy with excitement. Evanston allows high end fireworks, one level shy of what the pros use. Needless to say I am going to be exploding a lot of money this weekend, I'll report back on the final finger count after it's all done.
I watched David Blaine levitate on television yesterday and I can't get it out of my head. He's like a tricky little leprechaun that one.

This makes me wonder if we were watching the same David Blaine marathon last night. Did you also see when he turned 1 dollar bills into 100 dollar bills? Tricky little leprechaun indeed.
Have fun with your family!
I too find it surprising that you have somehow convinced me that cycling is interesting to watch! But in real life, I AM excited for the Tour!
Also, I didn't know the British pronounced aluminum that way.
