Good Weekend!

Wtih all the upcoming bullshit and our opposite schedules, Mikey and I don't get to see each other very often. Here's how the weekend went:

Friday: I finished up work at 4:30pm and headed home. Took care of yuna and Akima (coming VERY close to not having anything for them for breakfast on Saturday... I think they could tell I was hiding something :D) I gamed for a few hours and went to bed. Mikey had to work. Logged Mikey time: 0 hours.

Saturday: Go to Target early and get all my requests for time off for the summer in. Mikey came in for lunch. This has become a VERY important part of our schedule. Any time we can spend together is becoming valuable... It's a nice break to my day too! Mikey has also been working Saturdays at his job to build up some comp time for a trip to Texas to see a friend. So, he got sceduled to work until Midnight. Logged Mikey time: 45 minutes.

Sunday: Mikey got to my house around 12:30AM and I waited up for him, but pretty much went right to bed. Slept in until 10AM (the girls were VERY patient with me) and got cleaned up for brunch... Mikey and I have been trying to get out of the house and be amoungst the living on Sundays. Sunny Side Up off of Nicollet is our favorite morning stop. We went to Patina and wandered around for a bit, grabbed a Papa Murphy's pizza and headed home. Mikey read the paper and I loaded up an old PS1 game called 'Brigadine'. Played for a bit until Mikey passed out on the couch. I moved into the bedroom and checked out World of Warcraft for a bit. Mikey woke up and continued to read the paper and cleaned up my place a bit. It bugs him when he can't eat at the table... :D Logged Mikey time(awake): 13hours

When it's all said and done, I'll take all the time I can get. We've agreed we don't need to be in each others' face 24/7 but it's nice to have him in the same house... Even that time means a TON to me.

Love you Mikey!

Quite possible one of the funniest quotes I've seen recently.

“[Bleep] no. I’m not gonna do a Britney and pop out some kids. I’m not a Happy Meal. My husband’s got the burger, but he’s not getting the fries and shake to go with it.”

Hello!

Sorry for the not-so-regular posting, but I've just been lacking things to write.

I did my taxes on Thursday night and I already have my State refund back!! It's kind of nice because this year I don't have to pay in. It's also the first year where my refund is over $160!

YAY ME!

I have plans for the money, but the dictator in my life won't let me spend it the way I'd like to...

He's got some good logic, but I really don't care. I want to spend it on what I want to spend it on. I know that's selfish, but I also haven't just run out and bought the Laptop yet either...

*sigh* I'll prolly just sock it away in a savings account and hopefull accrue some interest. I can use it for a down payment on a house or even a Yuna-proof fence if said house doesn't come with one.

HOLY HOT GUY!!

Aight, I was walking through the skyway today and this hot little muscle stud and his INCREDIBLY FUCKING GORGEOUS 6'2"-ish friend with BEAUTIFUL eyes and a military haircut were heading in the opposite direction. He was wearing jeans and a painted on t-shirt. Jaw-dropping hot...

The tall dude made eye contact and then quickly diverted his eyes, but I saw him check me out 2 more times! Then, he checked me out as they were passing. AND THEN, I did the 3-step-then-turn move and caught him checking me out AGAIN! (he had a beautiful backside too!!)

WOOOOOO FUCKING-HOOOO!!!

Granted, it was the I-don't-want-my-friend-to-know-I-think-you're-attractive looks, but they were looks nonetheless!!

*sigh*

I need that everyday!!

Wow... I feel like I got NO sleep last night.

Went to bed at 11pm and set the alarm for 6am... not unreasonable, but my ass is DRAGGING today.

I'm not sure caffeine can help.

Must. Take. Nap.

Oops! I did it again...

I bought a new digital camera. I really couldn't pass it up because it was a SWEET deal and it was on my favorite consumer camera.

I got the Sony W5. Takes beautiful pictures, is lightning fast, it's Sony, and has a 2.5" LCD screen. Love. It.

Mikey is gonna take the Olympus because he needs a better Digi-cam and he likes the tiny cameras. I can't hang onto them with my ogre-sized hands.

Forgot to tell you...

On Friday, I was coming back from the gym and decided to avoid the CRAZY elevators in my building and take the safe ones and use our private skywalk to get into my area...

This entails walking past Sales. As I'm passing through, one of the slaes operations managers (a woman) is standing at the printer and then passes in front of me right before I walk through.

She stops, looks at my crotch, then continues to her office. HELLO?!?! It wasn't a glance, it was a full on 5-second stare! She never made eye contact and I verified my zipper was in it's correct position.

I was like WTF?!?!

She's got a cute husband and all but I'm wondering if she's getting any!!

HELLO!

I'm back from my FABULOUS 5-day weekend and feeling GREAT!

What did I do for that entire time, you ask? Well it's time for a list:

1) Dropped the Vue off at the body shop for it's facelift
2) Gamed
3) Washed the silverware
4) Gamed
5) Went shopping with Mikey
6) Gamed
7) Played with my Poochies
8) Gamed
9) Tried snowboarding and failed miserably
10) Traded snowboard for skis and felt SOOOOO much more competant
11) Taste-tested some Mac & Cheese from scratch that Mikey made
12) Scraped 3/4 of a pan of Mac & Cheese into the trash (Mikey did VERY well; the recipe needs modifications)
13) Stayed up late
14) Gamed
15) Made WOO WOO (it's a drink)
16) Got loopy off WOO HOO
17) Got the Vue back from the body shop and it looks AWESOME! (got it BEFORE I got loopy, FYI)

And I felt WONDERFUL when I got up this morning! A little tired, but I was smiling on the way into work so that says something. I've also got some pending arrangements to go back to Afton and do some more skiing. George and I have decided we're good skiiing buddies. He's a bit more daring than I, but that's what gets the heart pumping, right?

Special thansk to Mikey, Carlos, George, Yuna and Akima for making my vacation soooooooooooo good!

SHORT WEEK!!

I have requested Thursday thru next Monday off from work. YAY!!

I know, I'm not even 3 weeks into the new year and I'm already burning PTO days. But, due to my bus phobia and need of a mental break I have justified it.

Mikey is also taking Friday off (and he already has Monday off) so we're going to hang for the long weekend together.

I'm trying to think of some fun stuff to do that doesn't cost a lot of money... there WILL be some vegetation happening this coming weekend. I DEMAND it!

Get some gaming in, take in a movie or two, rent some DVDs, take the pooches to the park for a snowball fight, window shop, and find some mini-corndogs. Been craving them...

Also, I want to get my CD's transferred over the iTunes, create some playlists and work on the 'check-in/check-out' functionality of the iPod Nano. Anyone know how 'suffle' works? Or is it called 'random' on iPods????

Help if you can please!

Behind the times...

So, In a search to find fun music for my iPod I have downloaded the Black Eyed Peas. Now, some of you would be like 'Right on! My humps rawks!!'

Well... I actually downloaded Elephunk. I'm LOVING IT!! I don't know when it was released but i'm sure it's a few years old.

Anyone have some suggestions for some funky music to workout/walk to?
