Anyone else jonesing for a proper vacation? I need to get away from work for more than a day or two and I need it stat! Unfortunately, the mechanic looking at my Jeep today will probably be getting that vacation money. *cries* My broken things, let me show you them.

But seriously, for the Jeep being 11 years old, I'm not surprised that I've been ( Read more... )

I do not think I can adequately convey how tired I am. Maybe if I posted a picture of a deflated tire...

Big news at work which I will discuss later. Suffice it to say that the Bukowski was right - the gods will offer you chances. Know them. Take them.

Tomorrow is our god-damned holiday cookie exchange, so I just made 8 dozen chocolate- ( Read more... )

Went to see Nay-nay last night at yet another swank hotel she was staying at (actually I believe they are time shares). It had two bedrooms, two baths (the master had a whirlpool bath with a huge mirror and mosaic tiling), a living room, and full kitchen. Supposedly, it is less than the other Hyatt she stayed at last time. We curled up on the couch ( Read more... )

Okay, universe. Knock it the fuck off ( Read more... )
