random thought thursday

i have had the hardest time decided to post today because i love that picture of isaac so much i wanted it on top. but you know me, i can only stay away for so long before the withdrawal symptoms (headache, lack of concentration, feeling of forgetfullness, feeling antsy) take over and i succumb to temptation.
**************
viva has changed their paper towel and it's not nearly as soft or absorbent. this really bothers me because i hate all other paper towels. what's a girl to do?
**************
i recently discovered my vacuum was on the hardwood floor setting. i had to empty the thing three times when i vacuumed it on the carpet setting. disgusting.
**************
i don't get the hoopla with "ice age". i hadn't ever seen it but we rented it for isaac this weekend. it's fine, but not as great as everyone made it out to be.
**************
i cannot decide if i should go to president hinckley's viewing tomorrow. i have no idea where to park now that the malls are gone, isaac has had a 104 fever for 2 days, and i don't know how long the line will be. but how many times am i going to live 20 minutes away from the conference center when a prophet dies? i think about dave's brother and his wife taking their kids to washington d.c. when rosa parks died and it makes me feel like a total loser.
**************
propel fitnes water is delish (in lemon, at least). thanks for the tip, ellen.

My random thought... why can't I get those sidebar titles to look un-pixelated? Dang-it!

P.S. You should definitely go to the memorial service, but expect to be there all day {there will be tons of people!}.

That news about Viva paper towels is crushing. I LOVE Viva and won't use anything else....I think the cases I stocked up on must be the old ones. But really, what to do?

I hear the line for the viewing was only about 40 minutes yesterday. But park as far South or East (on the University line) as you can and take tracks in. There is NO place to park down town.

Yes, we've done the Rosa Parks thing, but I wouldn't have even considered it if anyone had even had the sniffles let alone a fever! Poor Isaac--you don't want to mess with a fever. :(

Good to know you're still brand loyal to Viva. Jess and I always thought you guys were so funny buying those paper towels!

Emily said...

well val they really ARE the best. and i've discovered if you buy them individually wrapped, they're still normal. it's the big 6-packs that are crappy now.

grape is good too, berry not so much. I have my own random thought and since I don't have a blog I'm posting it here. Abby calls butter peanut butter and she calls peanut butter black butter. weird

Emily said...

black butter? that is weird. and random.
