Alright, so my new laptop is bright and shiny!. If only it could make me type better. I'm liking it so far, although I haven't had much chance to play with it at this point. I hate the part where I have to reset up all my book marks and move things over that I really want to keep. That will have to wait for the weekend.
Friday is Good Friday, and my favorite church service of the entire year. I miss Catholic school for the fact that Holy Week was a big deal and I did have to go to school. BTW-- happy Easter if I forget to post then.
I think if I could get rid of all the crud in my sinuses I would lose 7 pounds...I dislike this time of year because I can't tell if it's a cold or allergies.
I'm trying desperately to get off for my nephew's First Communion on April 26th, but I'm waitlisted. I can't trade anyone because I have to g to KC at the end of the week. I'm praying to several deities that I get smiled upon and it works out. I'm going, whether work likes it or not.
It's deceivingly sunny outside lately. You walk outside and it's frigid. The sun is a LIAR!
So, I'm sitting around waiting for the FedEx guy to bring the new laptop... It's excruciating. I hope he comes before work. Really, it's slightly unfair. I keep thinking of taking the dog for a walk or taking a shower, but I know the minute I do I'll miss him! So, as you can see, the minute I ordered the new laptop the old one decided NOT to die. ASS! oh well, older brother wants to buy it.
I have been jonesin' to do some traveling laely, but with no vacation hours to spare and a terminal lack of funds, I am just stuck for a minute. I need to work for the travel channel so that taking trips would be my job.
My 10 year high school reunion for my first high school is in may, and I haven't RSVPed yet. God, should I go? I have spent 11 years of my life with minimal contact with that town... Not to mention I'm not exactly where I want to be at this stage in my life. I keep talking myself more out of it than in...
Blair lent me Professor Layton for the DS, and it's super fun little brain teasers. It can totally be a stumper.
I'm sitting here watching Fruits Basket with my mom. That's awesome, no matter how you cut it. My computer died. :( I ordered a new one last night. I'm living slightly beyond my means, but I want it. I was just telling my mom that I, along with America, am having a hard time coming to the grips with the fact that I will need to start having sacrifices in my disposable spending. Like no disposable spending.
I haven't posted anything in a while, and I think that is mostly because I have so little to report. I have been going out a lot more, but in going along with the no disposable spending, that is going to have to slow down.
I keep racking my brain for something to report, probbaly trying to make myself feel better and more self important. I got nuthin'... Oh well.
I'm feeling lots better, but I'm still not 100 percent. I haven't been around much, so let's play catch up.
Vegas was pretty awesome and I had a great time with my sister. Poor blair was sickly the whole time we were there, so she was forgivably boring. However, if you go to Vegas just to sit at slot machines you should be slapped. If not physically, at least verbally. I lost like 400 bucks gambling and spent about 300 at a bar. Most of which was my drunken generocity to strangers. I barely remember a lot of my last night there, or the morning after. Luckily I stayed drunk and then slept through my whole hangover. Yay!
We got new schedules at work that started last sunday. I now work Sun through Thurs 1:15 to 10. it's only an hour and 45 min difference but it still feels like a huge adjustment. My body is telling me that I have beendoing too much too soon after having been an ugly kind of sick. I'm really sleepy, so I've just been sleeping, a lot.
Every night I think I'm going to wake up early and haul my ass to the zoo for walking, but it never happens... I'm pretty damn lazy.
I haven't heard anything from my brother about his job interview here in town, but I talked to his wife todays and they are thinking that at this point they may turn it down even if it's offered to him. It's running a summer educational program for the diocese of Wichita. Teenagers and college aged kids travel from parish to parish and give lessons and activities. It's a really fum and interesting program, but it starts in May. He wouldn't even have adequate time to prepare even if he were told tomorrow.
I watched the Oscars and found them refreshing and fast this year and thank God Kate Winslet has finally won an Oscar. I love her. My questions are 1) Where was Javier Bardem to present the best supporting actor award? and 2) WHY THE FUCK WASN'T HEATH LEDGER IN THE IN MEMORIAM FILM REEL?!?!?! That right, he wasn't there. Double-you Tee Eff, bitches? Natalie Portman's dress may have been my favorite of the night, and Jessica Biel's may have been my least favorite. Maybe Sophia Loren's was worse, but that's forgiveable, it's Sophia Loren...
I decided while I was at work the other day that I am going to move to a different country so I can be a crazy foreign lady. It's ethnocentric of me, I know, but meh.... So, interesting news about work. The comany I work for is not giving raises this year. From CEO on down, payroll has been frozen. that, by itself, is shitty news. However to accompany that some other things they are not doing: they are not cutting our benefits or raising what employees put in. They are not closing centers or laying people off. I appreciate that they are keeping my job. I'm just tired of people whining at work about not getting an extra ten or twenty-five cents an hour. You still have insurance, you still get quarterly bonuses and YOU STILL FREAKING HAVE A GODDAMN JOB! Shut the fuck up, you spoiled, whiney bitches.
Random Molly fact: Practical Magic might be my favorite ridiculous girl movie....
I'm working hard today, superbowl Sunday. I hope it slows down, I don't want to talk to these whiney bitches. I would like set this kid on fire, actually. Heis repetitive. Oh good, he's gone.
I'm on break now, and I think that may be the most glorious thing ever.
After a series of unfortunate events, my husband is unemployed. I'm pretty concerned about him, and I'm selfishly afraid he's going to move...
I bought an xbox 360 last night. It was $150 at circuit city.
Keep me in your thoughts, otakus.
