I’m feeling some pressure to keep up the blogging since I’ve posted each day so far this week.  So GET EXCITED for a random spin through Emily’s mind:

1)  It’s finally raining.  For those of you who don’t live up here, you may not know that we’re many, many inches behind in rainfall and this wet stuff is desperately needed.  While I’m a little bummed that it’s crimping my exercise style (walking around the neighborhood), I welcome the opportunity to feel perfectly appropriate wearing sweatpants and a sweatshirt.

2)  A Kenton family factoid that I feel like may surprise some people:  one of us likes to watch gritty HBO dramas and one of us likes to watch ABC’s new Pushing Daisies with all its fantastical fluff.  Any takers on who’s who?

3)  The nutrition people need to make up their minds about pregnant women and fish.  I felt horribly guilty when the news came out recently that we preggos should be eating lots of fish after all.  I’ve always been one to espouse the benefits (of which I’ve read) of Omega-3 fatty acids, but for some reason, it’s been a long, long time since fish ended up in our grocery cart.  So to remedy this situation, I cooked salmon last night.  Tasty CL recipe– dredged in a mixture of ground almonds, panko, coriander, and cumin.   I feel smarter already.

4)  Flu shots really do make one’s arm sore for a couple of days.

5)  CSI is a repeat tonight which means I get to watch Grey’s Anatomy on the actual TV (albeit recorded) instead of being relegated to abc.com.  Scrubs also returns so we’ll be watching the NBC block from 9-10 and then catching recorded GA at 10.  We also have 3 more Netflix’d episodes of How I Met Your Mother (Season 2) to finish so we can pick up with the current season.  Just in case you’ve been wondering about our evening TV-viewing habits!

6)  I’m probably boring you.  So I’ll stop.  Have a great day!
