Friday I got home pretty early because I'd worked so many hours earlier in the week and had to make up time (no overtime allowed). I utilized the extra time to get some of my usual weekend chores out of the way (laundry, checkbook balancing, etc), gave the dog a bath, finally got my e-pass activated (it's a device for prepaying tolls. I couldn't ( Read more... )

Friday after work I went to Bar Louie for happy hour with Amy, April, Rose, Jim, Beth, Tara and Tara's boyfriend. Had a Diva martini (something with pineapple and something.. nummy, tasted kind of like cherry koolaid with a kick to it) and some dinner and then we all headed out at around 8:30. Shortly after I got home I took Casey to the bowling ( Read more... )

It's been another busy weekend. Still trying to get some laundry done, although I will have to continue tomorrow after work, and get groceries, and empty the dishwasher.... but I've had some good times this weekend ( Read more... )

Yesterday was a very long, fun day. I took Casey to work with me and let her run around Universal while I worked for a few hours. My boss' 17 year old daughter joined her. She's a very friendly girl, so they had fun together. They rode The Mummy coaster 11 times in a row. Wow, I'm jealous ( Read more... )

I had a total blast at Howl last night. Despite Mel and Nisar's attempt at sabatoge (and get this - they invited everyone to go downtown instead, and then ended up staying home!) there was a pretty good turn out. April, Jeff, Rose, Renee, Beth, Jean, Scott, Eliana, Nick, and several people I don't know came for the party I won (I told the people ( Read more... )

Tonight I went to Howl at the Moon (a piano bar) with Christine, Melanie, Rhonda, Jean and several of Christine's former co-workers. Most of them were let go in a massive lay off a few months back (including all the previously mentioned people... except Jean, she never worked there. Heh) and they still get together once in a while so they can ( Read more... )

I dreamed about giant fruit and snakes last night. Wut ( Read more... )

First of all, this, for your viewing pleasure, is a video I took last weekend of Willow flipping out over the sight of a mop. Shows how often I clean, LOL. Please excuse the mess. I was in the process of cleaning and doing laundry, so you know... it was the storm before the calm. Also, it's not the best quality because my cell takes tiny videos ( Read more... )

I had a great time at happy hour Friday night. Drinking, flirting and dancing are some of my favorite things, you know. Aside from the beers and the buttery nipple shot (which Christine's nephew Jason bought me), I also tried a Snickertini. It was delicious, but very expensive so I won't be making it a habit. Tons of people came out, but they ( Read more... )
