Well, I’m home at 12:30… I originally asked for Friday PM off to go pick up the boy, but instead Blanche is bringing him here (yes, two weekends a row with the MIL), then when I was supposed to have a job interview today I asked for this afternoon off instead. I just cancelled the…
Month: November 2004
Is it bedtime yet?
It’s Saturday night, which makes tomorrow Sunday, which makes the NEXT day…oh, well. It’s been a good day up until now. I am trying to put up our Christmas tree but I can’t find the ornament hangers or the will to search for them. Told Gene that next year we’re having a ghetto Christmas tree…
Newsflash!
Gene’s brother and his wife are having a baby!! How wonderful and exciting! I am very happy for them. It’s a total surprise — she just finished writing her Ph.D dissertation and my BIL just graduated with his a year or two ago. My MIL keeps saying that since we followed them on the wedding…
Day after Thanksgiving Sales?
Hell NO! I woke up an hour ago and said to Gene “Hey, ready to go to (insert name of big fancy mall, home of Nordies and other chi-chi shops)?” And of course, the above was his response. Good husband. He thought I was crazy enough to venture out yesterday. The MIL and step son…
It’s been a banner month!
Between finding Babies ‘R Us and successfully making something crafty, I guess this has not been a bad month…outside of the work arena, of course. Going to post some more cute pictures of the hounds…
Big Doings!
After I vowed to do something of value, I …. well, let’s just say that I didn’t actually even move for another hour. Our lunch reservations for Thanksgiving were at 12 noon, so I rushed to get cleaned up and dressed. Lunch was yummy — we each got to choose an appetizer, then they brought…
Silly Elaine…
Happy Thanksgiving! I’ve been on OPI’s website, trying to find the color Patty used yesterday, to no avail. So then I tried to use my digital camera to take a picture, also to no freaking avail. Ugh. Just trust me — it’s a kick ass hot pink color. While I of course adore OPI’s I’m…
Four Day Weekend IS HERE…
Oh, my god…my heart is so full. I am so happy I could dance and sing. In fact, I think I will! (Currently Playing: England 2 Columbia 0 by the late, great Kirsty MacColl.) Apropos to nothing, while I was surfing Kirstymaccoll.com, I came across a site selling pictures of Kirsty, including one of Kirsty…
Four Day Weekend, Coming Up!
It’s finally Wednesday…unlike most Wednesdays, it’s not a Hump Day. No, sirree. This Wednesday has been promoted to the lofty level of FRIDAY. Sooo….even though it’s not really relevant…it’s WEDNESDAY…….WEDNESDAY…..WED::::bigyuckyinhale:::NESDAY…. The downside to this being a Wednesday in Friday’s clothing: Can’t wear jeans (aka comfortable pants) The upside: My old boss is leaving after starting…
A Life in Music…
Sooo….at work, on the OUTSIDE, I’m trying to project this: On the OUTSIDE But on the INSIDE, it’s more like this: On the INSIDE And, since I’m going to be sentenced to another fucking Christmas season at work with NOTHING BUT XMAS MUSIC ALL DAY LONG, I hereby pass this one on as well: Fairytale…
