I'm Tired of ...
Sorry no update yesterday. This week has been very stressful, hectic and just plain aggravating.
However, last weekend was wonderful. On Friday I had a job interview but since I haven't heard back from them, I'm going with "I didn't get it". Shame too, I was perfect for the job. Afterwards, beldar & I went out for a late lunch and then ran a few errands before he had to go back to work that evening.
Saturday I woke up early and couldn't go back to sleep so I tried to get on the computer but out keyboard wasn't responding (it worked OK on Sunday so it might have just been a 1 time thing). That afternoon we met up with _falnfenix_ and her sweetie, scrufdog. We took them out to BD's Mongolian BBQ and had a great meal with wonderful conversation. Afterwards we tried to take them to Ben & Jerry's because scrufdog had never had Phish Food but the scoop shop was closed for the season so we took them to Maggie Moo's instead (mmm, smush-ins). The really liked it so everything worked out. We had planned to take them up to Clay Terrace (pronounced clitoris) but we decided to go to Fry's instead (Geekgasm). Besides picking up a couple of DVDs we've been dying for, the best part was going through the bargain bin with scrufdog and his determining that all of the titles were porn. After we took them back to the hotel, we ran a few more errands and then went home.
Sunday we went to church and to the "state of the church" meeting afterwards. We found out that they're planning on hiring an assistant for Pastor Jeff and I'm watching to try and get my application in as soon as it comes open. Afterwards we went to Forbidden City for their special Chinese New Year buffet. There was a wait but the food was great and we really enjoyed ourselves. Afterwards we went home and rested a bit before crashing in bed.
Monday I worked an 11 hour day trying to get a 5,000 piece mailing out by 4PM Tuesday. When Shannon hit me with this on Friday I told her I'd need help and she just told me that I'd have to get it done without any. Well after working my butt off Monday, she finally agreed that we would need help (I could have done it myself but it was 3-5 pages that had to be matched and colated). She got me three temps for Tuesday and not only were they really good, we got the whole thing done by 3:30. Of course, then I still had a bunch more work to do but at least that got handled.
Wednesday at work was pretty typical. LOTS of filing but nothing overly extreme. We went to the Indy Knights meeting and met up with an old friend (seperate posting about that) and generally had a good time.
Tonight we were supposed to go to The Phoenix to see their new show but there's a problem so we're going to try and see it on Saturday after the IRT show if we can.
BTW, I still have an available ticket for tomorrow night's show. Is there absolutely nobody around here who wants to go?
Oh well, I'll try to make a better post tomorrow.
TTFN!
