I *should* be writing. I'm 4 chapters from the end of my new novel and in the middle of the big revelation. I *should* be all excited about working on it today.

I'm lj-ing about tv last night instead. ;)

As for other TV news...DUDE! They cancelled Arrested Development?!? I must weep copiously. I'm so disappointed, though at least I'll have 3 seasons to have on DVD. *sigh*

It's a 3-day weekend for us as Alicia's school is closed for parent/teacher conferences and Craig has the last days of his vacation. However, we're travelled out, so we're just going to go to the zoo this morning and maybe a little bit of shopping this weekend. Nothing major. I just want to be around my house for a bit.

Helen, my sister-in-law, left me the most brilliant product. I've never seen it over here, but then again, I've never looked for anything like it. It's an anti-blister stick that you rub over your feet when you're in danger of getting blisters. I'd worn my favorite sandals last weekend on our day of heavy walking, and for some reason, they were starting to hurt the arches of my feet. She pulled out this tiny stick---it looks like a miniature deodorant, just a tad bigger than my Listerine mint strips---and said it was a new product back home. I rubbed it on, and voila! My feet were perfectly fine and I didn't blister, even though we did a ton more walking afterward. She left me her stick, and she's going to send me more when she gets back if she can find it. Apparently, places sold out of this stuff so fast that most people she knew couldn't even find one. For good reason. This stuff is amazing.
