Dreamlog: Ugh, this one was awful, folks. I dreamed that the Snook had to propose to his ex-girlfriend in front of all our friends and family. (I can’t remember the reason, but in the dream it sadly made perfect sense.) He gave her this big giant square-cut diamond ring and she answered “Maybe”. Afterwards he didn’t understand why I was so upset and humiliated. I woke up in tears. After the usual post-nightmare snuggling and comforting, the real Snookums cracked me up with: “You’re not allowed to watch The Bachelor before bed anymore.” Indeed.

(Disturbing sidenote: The ex-girlfriend in my dream was played by Kristen! I must have some severe repressed bridal envy goin’ on.)

Girls only: This Glitter thread just blew my mind. Sea sponges!

From the “New Staff” section of this morning’s edition of Unnamed-Printer-Company’s newsletter:

KRISTINE HOWARD has joined the E-Business Team in the role of Web Content/Site Administration. Kris’s favourite hobby is her newly learned skill of knitting. Kris is a self-confessed computer geek and enjoys messing around with computers, writing code, and working on her own Internet sites.

I think that’s a pretty accurate profile, except for the missing sentence about my pub trivia prowess. (Damn space constraints.) And no, I don’t think you need to see the accompanying mug shot. *shudder*

Happy Dyngus Day! As South Bend, Indiana has a large Polish community, every year they’d throw a big Dyngus Day celebration. So be sure to have a sausage today and throw some water on the one you love!

Australian television is airing the infamous UK coughing episode of Who Wants to be a Millionaire tonight. It looks like we’ll be the first place in the world to see it!

Moire found a great story about the dreaded Peeps. I didn’t realize they were fifty years old!

In memory of Dr. Atkins, Rodd and I will be eating his pancakes and syrup today. Yep, actual Atkins brand! They were sent to use for Easter by my Dad and Cindy. Such a cool gift. Although, the first thing I saw when I opened the box was… PEEPS! There were Peeps lurking in my house all along! Luckily we had four tipsy guys in the house last night who were more than willing to scarf down some weird marshmallow birds. (We even showed them the trick of putting one in the microwave.) Ahh, good Easter fun.

RIP Dr. Atkins.

Trivia Update: Despite kicking ass in the first round, we dropped to third by the end of the competition. Whatever. We did manage to win 4 out of 5 mini-jackpots though, with yours truly coming up with two. (I correctly identified “Robert Carlyle” as the star of “Ravenous” and “The World is Not Enough” and the song “3 AM” as the source of the lyric “She says it’s cold outside and she hands me a raincoat.”) Question of the night: What are the first five books of the New Testament?
