Well, someone was silly and made Friday a bank holiday without letting me know. The result seems to be that I have something like a -98.00 balance on my checking account, because my paycheck won't post to my account until tomorrow. I'm always so good on payday- I take my happy little check downtown to the bank and deposit it in mister the ATM so ( Read more... )

First off, thanks to Moggy and Azalynn for the input. I swear I'm not trying to make this sound like some tremendous LJ drama, and if it's coming across that way, I apologise. It's just my little adventure. Or something. I'm not entirely sure. Anyway ( Read more... )

I abruptly ended an AIM conversation with my sister by feigning linkdeath at her. Generally I don't like to just hang up on people on AIM, but this time I did. She brought up the holidays, and whether or not I'm coming home. "It's really important that you come home," she said. More or less. Her version was slightly more garbled and less ( Read more... )

My sister and I didn't go to the zoo today, mostly because she was supposed to be waiting for the heater guy and partially because when she called to say she was on her way, I had a meltdown at her. I think she's pissed off about this whole thing- it's rare that I see her yelling, but she did quite a lot of it when I tried to explain what's been ( Read more... )

Wheeeee fishies. After only an hour or so of sleep last night, I hauled myself out of bed and got dressed so I could go to the Adventure Aquarium with my sister. You can check below for my expectations and all that jazz. Just a quick recap for the lazy: my sister decided she wants to spend her Mondays off doing fun things, and I am allowed to ( Read more... )

To celebrate (almost) one month of unemployment, my sister and I are going to the Camden Aquarium tomorrow. They recently remodeled and re-named, and now they're rather dorkily called Adventure Aquarium. But they added a shark tunnel and hippos, and reworked just about everything, I think as part of the "zomg we must make Camden teh pretty!" ( Read more... )

My sister isn't going to be a stupid pet owner! She's getting a baby shih tzu in two weeks, and has apparently been researching and working with the breeder to figure out exactly what she's going to need to keep the little boy happy and healthy. We went to a few pet shops today looking for good toys and stuff for him ( Read more... )

I'm spending the night at my sister's tonight. This really means little more than a change of scenery- sitting parked in her office all night instead of curling up in bed with Vlad until I fall asleep. Still, I don't want people getting worried when they see Trillian off for once. It just means I haven't gotten around to attacking my sister's ( Read more... )
