Beaming to you from Washington, DC.  It's been a busy week, and it feels like Monday.  But it's not.

Here are the top stories making news:

PERSONAL:
We watched the premiere of Lost.  Couldn't sleep.  Too much to think about.
Made sure Brian ate before his sleep test.  Yep, at a hospital.
Secured a mortgage that's 2% lower.
Commented on several NY Times and WaPo articles.
Spoke (using voice, text and email) with several friends I haven't seen or heard from in a very long time.

Oh, and SLOW Blogged.............

LIFE:

Couldn't make it to happy hour.  Missed seeing friends, but life calls...

I forgot to tape Ugly Betty for us to watch tomorrow.  The cool thing is abc.com gets it.  And so we can watch it, on our schedule.  And why don't advertisers understand that?

It's a new day, and a new world.

Revel in it.
