Someone pass me the toothpicks to prop my eyelids open!  I’m so groggy this morning.  We had storms last night, and all three monsters ended up in our room along with a shaking dog.  The dog and MM ended up in bed with us.  The alarm went off at 5:00 a.m. and I wanted to die. 

I got up, but I can’t say that I got a significant amount of work done.  I’m so tired!  YAWN.  Two cups of coffee and I still can hardly string words together to get a sentence.  Today at the EDJ will be exciting, because I’m swamped there, too.

So dark and early was a bit of a bust this morning, although I did get another 500 or so words.  Must make more coffee….

As for Hell’s Kitchen last night, I was so ticked off when the three snobs voted Julia, the short order cook, as one of the two for elimination.  I could not believe Jen tried to take food out of the garbage and serve it!!!  I mean, how many times has this happened in a real restaurant?  The thought is enough to make me barf.  Anyway, I was proud of her when she stepped forward and offered herself for that mistake.  Thankfully, Gordon recognized Julia’s skills and sent her back to her team.  Come on, ladies.  Julia helped you WIN the breakfast challenge singlehandedly!  So what if she doesn’t know how to make creme brulee yet–give her a chance!  And thank God Aaron is finally gone.  What a weak, whiny pitifiul excuse for a cook!
