Jon Stewart - Man of my dreams...

(I wrote this on Wednesday)

I saw the funniest thing the other night. I was up late Tuesday night, folding towels and eating waffles, when I flipped over to a cable-sanitized Sex in the City rerun. Miranda had sworn off dating/sex and was instead indulging in chocolate éclairs and Jon Stewart as a substitute. I had to laugh. You see, Jon Stewart has frequently popped up in my own “adult-only” dreams – and to quote George Clooney, he’s a ‘bobcat in the sack’! LMAO

Rationally, I think the main reason that Jon often gets top billing in my dreams is that The Daily Show is most often the last thing I watch before climbing into bed. Plus I think his witty intelligence and wicked sense of humor is damn sexy! Also, I’ve always been a sucker for a nicely dressed man. Let’s face it – Jon’s a silver-haired stone-cold fox! Meow! ;o) Anyhow, I was just glad to find out that I wasn’t the only girl out in the world who has been wooed by Jon.

Speaking of Jon Stewart – if anyone out there in cyber-land can tell me why he doesn’t wear a wedding ring, I’ll be forever grateful. It just bugs the crap out of me. Is it a Jewish thing? I was reading how it bugs people that David Letterman always wears white socks (even with his suits), well this is my weird thing. I’ve noticed that even when Jon appears elsewhere (like the Oscars), he doesn’t wear one. Maybe it is a superstition - comedians are weird like that.

I’m home with the boy today. Brandon came home from school early yesterday with an ear ache. We broke down and paid the $20 co-pay to take him to the doctor. Turns out he has a sinus and ear infection. Thank God for Giant Eagle’s “FREE” antibiotics campaign. They saved me $10 for his medicine. He is feeling much better today – after 3 doses of the antibiotics. He has been watching Toy Story 2 all day. Then he went down to the basement and pulled out all his Toy Story figurines. He has been playing with them quietly in his room for almost an hour – it’s a miracle! :o) He wants to go take a walk, so I’ll have to keep this post a bit short so we can go out and enjoy the unseasonably warm weather.

I found out yesterday that my group, SpeakOUT, will start off our 2007 Campus Tour for Equality in style! OSU is hosting our first stop and they told me that we will have our panel discussion and then show the 2004 documentary, Tying the Knot, at the Wexner Center. Excellent location! I’m very pleased. Maybe some of you can make it out – it is free! All we are asking for is a donation of a canned good or toiletry item for the Columbus AIDS Task Force’s Project Open Hand (which provides food and so forth to community members with HIV/AIDS who need extra help). The presentation/movie is on Tuesday, Jan. 16th at 8PM @ Mershon Auditorium.

Saturday is Meg’s swimming party and then Sunday we are having dinner with our SpeakOUT members for a little holiday gathering. Lots to do! I can’t believe that I have only barely started my Christmas shopping. At least most of my cards are mailed – I got out the family cards and now I’m working on friends. So much to do…

Well, Brandon is getting anxious to go outside. I’d better get his coat on and take him for his walk. I’ll post a new saga update soon.
