End of the Workweek

Now I don't know about you, but my work week was highly productive. Many accomplishments were had in 5 short days.

Not necessarily in the traditional employee sense, or crime-solving sense. But still.

1) I finally got to the bottom of the bru-ha-ha over Britney's "If You Seek Amy".
Mmm, those be some subversive lyrics. Yes, it does sound like she's saying "All of the boys and all of the girls are begging to fuck me".

Ok, not the greatest of challenges (I basically googled "If you seek Amy lyrics, meaning") but not bad for a Monday. And I was amused for a while listening to it over and over so props to me for resourcefulness.

2) Further music quandary I came across. I downloaded the new Kelly Clarkson album after I saw her rock out on SNL. Not a fan of her before but I like her new songs.
Then I came across 'Already Gone', and saw how eerily similar it was to Beyonce's 'Halo' which I love as well:

3) I completed my transformation into a 14 year old girl.

It all began it February, when I was able to purchase the first "Twilight" novel on Half.com by pre-order for one dollar. I gave it a shot and the rest, I must admit, is history. It was the quickest read and guiltiest pleasure read I've had in a while. Books are always better than movies, in my opinion, so I was curious to see what the hoopla back in November was all about.

It's now so clearly obvious: Robert Pattinson.

Quite mysterious, I still can't figure out if he's hot or not, if I liked his performance in the movie or did I think he was overacting, whether he did bring something unique to Edward, or could it have done better. Further confounded by the movie itself, couldn't decide if I liked it or not. I did watch the commentary by the actors and director, which officially pushed me over to my old school 14 year old self. It's like Titanic all over again...

4) On Wednesday I did the impossible, for me. I did my hair in the morning, 1/2 up and wavy, a salute to vintage Pam Beesly (minus the displeased facial expression)

And the best part of it was that for the first time in as long as I can remember I did not change it during the day.
Playing with my hair kills time, gives me excuses to venture to the restroom, is basically a worktime hobby.
I start with a braid, only to put it down at noon, make it into a bun at 2pm, then try a 80s style side pony, only to end up back at square one. All Ye who don't work at BankMark shall not judge.
On this day, maybe because it was an unusually good hair day, I keep it simple.

A small step for woman...

5) I provided joy to others by forwarding one of my all time favorite YouTube videos.

I'm exhausted. Ready for the weekend at last...
