It’s Wednesday, or hump day as it is commonly known to many. I like Wednesdays because, well, it means you are at the mid-point of the work week and you can start looking forward to the weekend. After all, everybody’s working for the weekend. This particular Wednesday is administrative professional’s day, also known as secretary’s day. I would have known this if I didn’t keep the large desk sized calendar on my desk covered up with paperwork. So, to my secretary, Sherry, who I’m sure won’t read this, thanks for all you do. I’m particularly grateful for all the documents you scan for me and convert to PDF. You rock, Sherry! So, for all you secretaries out there that didn’t get a gift, be sure and nonchalantly drop the hint that you deserve a lunch out on the boss.

It was once again an interesting evening on American Idol last night. Can you say good-bye to Brooke White? Well, I can, and I think she’s the gal that’s hitting the road this week. However, I’m not a betting woman; so, I will be placing no money on that. After all, I was in total shock just two weeks ago when the hot Australian, Michael Johns got the boot. I think that Brooke gave (by far) the worst performance of the week. I was really impressed with Syesha. I think Broadway might just be her cup of tea.

I’m taking my Dyson in for repair today. I kept leaving the house without remembering to take it with me. It’s rather unnatural to leave your house in the morning carrying the vacuum cleaner. But, I finally remembered this morning and plan to take it in this afternoon. I hope they get it repaired quickly and permanently this time.

Did anyone catch "Dirty Jobs" this week? Let me tell you, it was indeed dirty. Mike Rowe has done some dirty things, but that fishing vessel was by far the nastiest I can remember seeing. I’m glad I don’t have the job of hosting “Dirty Jobs!”

Until next time…
