Tomorrow afternoon, I’m off to Michigan for the long weekend. Who knows what magical wonders await.

Actually, I do know — because I downloaded an abridged version of “My Life,” read by the author, my beloved Bill, to listen to in the car. Sigh. Six hours and 12 minutes of Bill’s voice. I know he’s my mom’s age and a total skanky man-ho, but I don’t care. I don’t know any female or gay male Democrat who wouldn’t do him. I’m just saying.

I’m sure my weekend will be a letdown after my Bill time, but I have a few other things to look forward to: lunch and margaritas with my friend Jennifer (I think she has a bone to pick with me, based on some decisions I’ve made lately. Nothing like the sass of a 18-year friendship), meeting/hanging out with my brother’s new girlfriend (word on the street is that she’s quite normal), steaks on the grill cooked by my daddy and perhaps, even the opportunity to drive my mom’s kick-ass Honda Pilot. (I’ve already been banned from driving it once.) I also have a few things in the works for next week; hopefully the activities will inject some much needed boredom relief.

I have a new obsession: A live version of “Ain’t Nobody” by Natasha and Daniel Bedingfield from the Brit Awards. If I knew how to post the song, I would. Shrieky yet oddly charming. Ha, that could describe me too. Wink.
