A few random things learned recently...

• You can negotiate at Circuit City. I bought a new TV and was able to get some $$ knocked off the price. This coming from someone who has not purchased a TV since the invention of the remote control.
• I am not so humbled as I am when ... I shampoo a rug and see how positively filthy the recovery tank gets. Oh my gravy.
• Chicken soup really does a lot to soothe one's soul. I have some on the stove simmering away, waiting on the kids to get home from dad's house.
• I love reading. Most of my recent selections have been good, except for Friday Night Knitting Club. I almost didn't finish that one. I had no empathy for the characters, the trip to Scotland was positively boring, and the ending didn't jive with where the story was headed.
• We are watching American Idol this season. The girls seem to like it, although I'm getting a little bored with the auditions. The competition is much more entertaining.
