I&#8217;m the most organized person around; I never miss appointments. But I was sitting here at my desk when the phone rang and the dentist said, &#8220;Where are you?&#8221; I forgot it. Plain and simple forgot it. <\/li>\n<li>I&#8217;ve developed a full-blown addiction to Peppermint Patties. I go through like a pack a day. I start to shake when I can&#8217;t get to them. It&#8217;s getting a little out of control. I may need to find a support group.<\/li>\n<li>The Pie has been sick. Missed Monday at day care and I probably shouldn&#8217;t have sent her today but I have a freelance job due Friday. We&#8217;re headed back home for my grandmother&#8217;s surprise 90th birthday party, which means two flights in one weekend with the Screaming Pie. (Or maybe not! Did everyone see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wbir.com\/news\/national\/story.aspx?storyid=41509&amp;provider=gnews\">this story<\/a>?) I have a skit to write for the party. And, oh, I just might run the Miami marathon for which I am really not 100% prepared (or I might run the 1\/2 marathon for which I&#8217;m overprepared). The question: Can I run a marathon starting at 6:10 a.m. and still be on time for the party at 11:30 a.m.? I&#8217;ve decided to make a midrace decision (I&#8217;m pretty sure I can do that&#8211;just finish at the half instead of the full). A half marathon seems so, so, well, wussy! Do you think if I ask nicely they&#8217;d let me start the race an hour early?<\/li>\n<li>Dare I speak it? Or write it, for that matter? Dare I utter these words? For over a week now, the Doodlebug has been in&#8230; underwear! It&#8217;s involved way more conversation about poop than I could have imagined possible, but hey, if it works, it works!<\/li>\n<li>Started ice skating lessons with the kids. Doodles loved it. Pretty sure he&#8217;s the next <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bobby_Orr\">Bobby Orr<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Brian_Boitano\">Brian Boitano<\/a>. Pie? Not so much. I&#8217;m pretty sure I&#8217;ve got the next <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tonya_Harding\">Tonya Harding<\/a> on my hands with that one.<\/li>\n<li>How can I be out of Peppermint Patties?
