Low Key @ Mid-week

Nov 09, 2005 14:59

not much going on this week; just work, work, work. anyhow, it pays the bills, sort-of, LOL

having dinner tonite with some friends @ applebees. they have 2 small kids (hannah & conner). conner's middle name is william, named after me, a great honor.

i'm going to try and make some plans to visit family & friends back east this upcoming holiday season. hope i can get away for it. i have friends in indiana that i visit with fairly often. i'm thinking turkeyday there. i need to take more vacation and bring my balance down some.

my sister (linda) said her hubby bought her a new jeep grand cherokee. he works at a chrysler dealership, so i'm sure he got a good deal. glad to see they're doing so well. her first husband wasn't much of a provider for the family. he's still way behind on his child support payments. that kind of stuff pisses me off.

my cell phone has been acting wierd. sometimes when i charge it through the nite, it goes dead real soon. not sure what's happening with that. it only happens once in a while, but i don't understand what makes it do that. you would think that if it charged through the night, it would be good to go all day long. its not too old, just bought it in march; the battery should still be holding up.

been text messaging with a nephew. its a cheap way for him to keep me up to date on whats going on with him. he has one of the pay as you go phones and a text message costs him a nickel. phone calls cost him a dime a minute, which is better than the 30 cents per minute he was paying with another phone he had. he's desperately trying to keep his old buick regal going. he'll need a good paying job to restore it the way he talks.

a friend from DC called last night and left a message; i'm sure it was just checking in and seeing whats going on. i'll have to call him soon. may try and visit there this holiday season. when i lived in the DC area, that was where we developed the fine art of toga parties. there are certain protocols for toga parties. we got it down to a science too. all you have to know before hand is, how soon do you want to pass out, how humilitated you feel like getting, how many complaints from the neighbors you're willing to tollerate, and we'll develop a formula for you. LOL

oh well, back to work. hope everyone is having a nice day
