Woah the laundry-mat

Jan 17, 2009 15:44

I'm here at the laundromat washing the clothes and the like and using their wifi, and I'm thinking I'd like to OWN a laundromat. I've actually had this idea for awhile now actually. It started in Vermont the last winter that Andy and I went to see my brother in Killington. I'm too lazy to see if I wrote about it in here already but the laundromat that my brother used was also a bar, yes you read me right. A Bar. Pool table, stage for indie performers, chicken wings, fries and jalapeno poppers - beer, shots and mixed drinks. BRILLIANT IDEA. Of course the bars close at 2 out there but the laundromat was 24-hours. They even had couches and computers for people to use. I think something like this would work so well in Fredonia. Now, you ask...what about people under the age of 21 that need to wash their clothes? The Rub a Dub Pub had this figured out in Vermont. The bar was upstairs and the laundromat was downstairs. And you thought I'd be going to jail for serving minors. So I guess that covers it. I want to own a Bar-omat.

It's freezing here in East Aurora. Colden is even colder. HAHA. get it? COLDen? Yeah I know. 14 degrees without the wind chill, almost double digits below 0 with the wind chill. Andy's stopped looking for jobs. It's pointless. The job market is crap. My company let 40 people go Thursday, they stated it was "housecleaning" for those with "poor performance." Apparently that means half of our IT department was worthless. At least the 3 IT people I like are still there. But you're wondering how are Andy and I living seeing as he hasn't gotten an unemployment check in oh....since he filed on the 2nd. Plus, his last pay check was over a month ago. We're fucking poor. I bought groceries thinking only of how long they could last... nevermind nutritional value. It's like college all over again. Lots of pasta, salads, stuff made in the crock-pot. We're eating, and gaining some weight from the carbs but the season allows for that I think. He's going back to school full time this semester down in Alfred. He'll be driving the hour and a half each way the first semester to see how it works out. 3 semesters and he'll have his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering. Maybe in that year and a half Obama can do something about the job situation.

Oh. Pre-St. Pat's at my place March 14th. Text me an RSVP. It starts at noon and has to end around 8. My downstairs neighbors are both in their 50's and my neighbors to the side are a single mom and her 5 year old son. It'll be a PG-13 party. ;)
Please carpool as well as parking is limited.
