bug.

so far my goal of getting to bed by midnight has tanked all week.  it's like time moves really slow for the first hour i'm home, and then speeds up to crazytime from 8 til 12!  suddenly i'm looking at the clock, saying, "oh, it's midnight already, okay i need to do one more thing & then sleep."  except one more thing turns into two ... three... and here i am at nearly 1 a.m., still awake and knowing tomorrow is a BUSY day!  bad nightowlcarrie, bad!  lol 

anyway, so this will be quick.  it was a pretty good day.  the only horrid awfulness was that a BUG was in my HAIR for an HOUR and i didn't notice until it moved.  !!!!  i was outside at 2 for a couple minutes.  then back inside.  visited the loo.  fixed a snack.  worked.  3 o'clock comes around & maurice comes over to show me the latest toy he created for me (in excel, love it!).  suddenly, my head itches, i reach up to scratch it, and FEEL A BUG.  *shudder*  i admit it, i panic a little, but only because it's been an hour since i've been outside and that means this thing has just been hanging out on top of my head for that long!  *boggle*  why didn't i feel the lil buggar before that??  oye.  anyway, thankfully maurice crushed it & threw it away in dave's trash can for me.  : ) 

ummm... after work i met mom & leyton at applebee's.  spinach artichoke dip & chips was yummy!  chicken strips were yummy!  fries sucked.  i think they changed from seasoned fries to regular or something, plus they were cold, which was annoying.  it was nice to hang out, tho, and leyton was snuggly a bit, so that is always a fun thing!  anthony didn't join us because he spent the night elsewhere.  as we left, leyton asked if i had any quarters (he loves the little machines, as all children must...including me when i was little, i know!) and then debated about a mini puppy or the plastic dice/ball/yoyo.  he went w/ the latter, and out popped the tiniest, cutest yo-yo!  : )





when i got home, i immediately prepared & hopped into the shower, washing the last traces of bug from my hair.  oye!  *laugh*  then i chatted w/ april for a bit & watched some much-needed comedy reality in the form of America's Got Talent (oh, howie!  oh, piers!  sharon's cool, too.) and Last Comic Standing.  good times!! 

i also wrote out several postcrossing post cards, and one for micaela, too!  : )  oh, and one of the ladies who i'm sending a card to loves giraffes!!  she would probably get a kick out of this picture:



AND she mentioned a project someone's doing, from (norway? sweden? somewhere like that) europe called the million giraffe project.  check it out - there are some CUTE artworks! 

oh goodness.  tomorrow the plan is to work til noon & then run errands & be on the road by 3.  please pray for a safe journey (no deer!)!!  : )  also, thank you for your prayers for sergio, please continue to keep him on your list. 

*hugs*  goodnight, bloggies!  ttfn.
