*************************************************************************************
1) I think I may be the last person on earth (or at least in the USA) who doesn't have a list of Podcasts that they are regularly listening to...or at the very least, are fond of. I'm really trying to find some I may like...but I also wonder if I will struggle to truly listen since I'm a big failure at audio books. Podcasts though are much shorter, so maybe there is hope. The 1st one I plan to try is: Stuff You Missed in History Class-wish me luck!!
2) I'm surprised it took this long, but the negative feelings about my job have finally set it...along with the feelings of dread every morning and oh yeah, the Sunday blues. It's probably safe to assume most of this is fueled by the numerous comments that my role is "unimportant" that have been launched my way this year. Yeah, it's been so awesome.
3) In happier news...the boys are going camping w/Boy Scouts this Saturday to Sunday...so that means a whole LOTTA "me time"...which I'm insanely excited about and without a single feeling of guilt (so far). Mom and I will catch a movie on Saturday night - probably "The Best of Me"...yes, I read the book and I cannot wait to see what the movie is like. I'll be bringing tissues for sure.
4) Looking so very much forward to another hour on the elliptical today. I'm serious. Though it may end up costing me some $$ to spend an hour on the machine every time I'm there as I've found it's rather helpful to rent a movie on iTunes and watch it while exercising....since it's a bit bumpy for reading. Last two movies I watched: "Million Dollar Arm" (awesome!!) and "They Came Together" (thumbs down!! Too much of that stupid-type humor). Today's movie is "Horrible Bosses" to re-kindle my love for Jason Bateman...and to prep for the sequel coming out. Woot!!
5) I think I'll try this read-a-thon...I could use a boost in my reading motivation as I've been insanely tired every night lately and haven't done much reading since Monday. Now to remember to document how many pages I read each night...that's the true challenge. Ha!!
6) I'm going to see Kenny Loggins in concert in just 12 days and couldn't be more excited. We're even driving 1 hour away to see him...which is strange because our city is MUCH bigger than the one he's going to play in...so that doesn't make much sense to me...oh well...I'm sure there's a reason. This will be the 3rd time I see him and each time in a different state. Ha!

You have a delightful list of things to do, and they all should help with those Sunday blues! I remember them well.
Enjoy the weekend of "me time."
Here are BOOKISH/NOT SO BOOKISH THOUGHTS
Congratulations on your weekend "me time". Just so you know, I'm insanely jealous of you...
Kenny Loggins? Still jealous...
As for those negative people in your work life - too bad for them. Show them they are wrong! Perhaps they too are just jealous (in a vicious and mean kinda way)...
The only podcast that I've landed on that I love is The Nerdist. I've tried so hard to find, and love, others but haven't had much luck. Maybe it's a patience issue? Or too high of expectations? I've tried to love This American Life on NPR and feel like a total cultural failure for not being all up in Ira's junk. So yeah.
