getting warmer

yesterday i got to hang out w/ mom, aunt jan & grammy to play canasta.  we played partners & mom & i won!  : )  she very kindly brought us some ice cream, too.  tastee freez!  yummy!  : ) 

after cards, i finally got to go to the grocery store - and i forgot chili!!  *laugh*  hopefully i'll be able to get back there tomorrow, but if not i guess it's not the end of the world if i don't have chili.  i guess it is getting to be out of chili weather.  (hahaha, chilly/chili, hahaha!)  and i did get my tortillas for my latest food obsession, so it's all good!! 

last night when i got home, i watched lots of GH.  soooo good!  got to chat w/ joy finally for a bit, which was nice!  i even went to bed before midnight!  and i got up at 6:30! 

and then i said, "i have 1/2 an hour, i can just lay back down for a few minutes...."

i shouldn't say things like that, or do them! 

*sigh* 

so, i woke up again at 7:30, w/ marty honking.  whoops!!!  happily, we still made it to work on time, and i even remembered to grab my breakfast fruit & mt dew before zooming out of the house - fully clothed and wearing MATCHING socks!  i know, you are shocked.  LOL  but i sure was not fully awake til, like, lunch, dude.  duuuude!  i am liking that word lately.  : ) 

the day went pretty normally, other than the tireds!  got new work computer, and everything transferred over fine, except one of the computer systems.  we have version A & version B.  i normally work w/ version A, but when the new computer booted up i had version B.  and couldn't remember how to get back to version A.  i called the Help(less) Desk.  the gal there was trying, but she thought i meant that version A was a discontinued version that i needed to download, but i couldn't download it because it was discontinued.  that was NOT what i meant.  but that's okay, because after asking 4 ppl, all of whom TRIED to help, i found someone who showed me exactly what i needed.  and actually, person 3 led me to person 4 who led me to person 5, who is the person able to help, so that worked out nicely!  : )  (see what i did there?  clever, huh?  *laugh*)

so, that whole thing took an hour, and then i spend another 40 minutes trying to figure out why some of my other apps weren't sized correctly.  but i THINK i got it all figured out before we left.  LOL  i hope! 

tonight i watched celebrity apprentice & continued to be impressed w/ bret michaels.  i also watched a kick butt episode of army wives!  so glad it's back!  : )  now, the latest Amazing Race & then BED!  i must (must must must MUST) get up at 7 tomorrow!  i got to chat w/ april, which was nice.  her daughter is going to be THIRTEEN tomorrow.  april & became bff's when we were her age, and so it's just really neat that april now has a daughter that age.  i think all my friends are amazing parents, and i'm so blessed to know their kids!  i look forward to continuing to be surrounded by these awesome ppl as they continue to grow up!  : ) 

what else is there to say about today?  oh, i did my billage & am pretty sure that i won't be able to afford a rental car for wednesday, thursday & friday as i'd planned.  i didn't realize that i hadn't paid my G&E bill yet & didn't factor it in to my budget for this check!  whoops!  oh, wait... i should be getting a check back from enterprise & if i get it tomorrow then i can use it to rent again.  ooooh.  okay, so it'll be a timing thing!  *laugh*  we'll see!  God'll get me thru! 

have a great night, party peeps!  and day.  and don't forget, tomorrow is .... *drumroll*  GLEEEEEE!!!!!!!  get your gleek on, right?  : ) 

ttfn!

  1. I was impressed with Bret Michaels as well. He seems quite intelligent. He can do so much better than those bimbos they have on the Rock of Love shows.

  2. Jen, I totally agree! Sometimes I get the feeling he plays the part of the party guy cuz he thinks he has to. But I enjoy him so much more on this show than the others!! : )
