Thread: What did you do today?

Met spockman and his family.

I played diablo II all day, and had a few chess matches with my brother. I won once, but he won the other two -_-.

Went to the orthodontist.

I mowed an old lady's grass and became $25 richer

Woo! I'm excited!

Got a haircut, and have been learning Protest the Hero's "Bloodmeat" on guitar. Might go out around town soon.

My brother-in-law brought my nephew (infant) to work during lunch. The little tyke grabbed my pinky and, for the first time, smiled at me. He also stuck out his tongue when I did, so that's also a first for me.

When I get home, I'm probably just gonna RAWK OUT the whole evening on my new 6-string. And maybe work on some story-related stuff, if I'm feeling up to it.

Awww.. how sweet, Lezen!

I've been a major bum today. I've not done crap and I feel like crap lol.
When hubby gets home, he'll be taking me to pick up my car. After that I'll head off in search of food. I've only had 3 Reeses single cups and about half a Sprite. I know better than to eat Reeses. They anger my stomach lol.

After that, I need to take a trash can down to the road for tomorrow's pick up. Then I'll watch TV if any new eps are on, play RuneScape, pack a bit more (my boxes are in the car lol), and then crash.

well yesterday i slept, made mac n cheese, worked at both my jobs then went to a corn maze then to a haunted bridge. lots of fun!

Oh lawd, have mercy...for breakfast I ate a double croissandwich and a "sausage biscuit" (literally, a sausage patty between two halves of a biscuit) from Burger King. It's pretty freakin' sad that the meat BK uses in their regular burgers tastes 100 times better than their rubbery sausage meat.

BK-sausage-flavored burps for the LOSE.

rofl @ Lezen and BK burps

I have had a thoroughly exhausting day. I waited for hubby to leave for work at 1:00 then picked up my grocery money a day early. He gave me an extra $100. which really made my day because this weekend is (well, since Thursday) is the time of our County's big yard sale event.
I lost count of how many yard sales I went to, but I made some great bargains. I got a whole bag of clothes (trash bag sized bag) for about $2.00. I got some table ends/small cabinets for $3.00 each and some pictures for about .50 each.

I just stopped back by the RV to let Momma Cat outside and to eat lunch. Then I have to get gas and drive out to the Farm to drop all the stuff off, do some more cleaning and arranging, then come back to the RV to pack another load. But I wont return to the Farm until tomorrow. I have to get a box spring from the Modular to bring it up.

I still have to call everyone and arrange to have an unsupervised visit with my kids next week. I really hope my sister or her husband won't be jerks and will meet me at the Park as we have been doing. Officially, though, since it's unsupervised, it's my responsibility to pick everyone up and drop them off. They live about 2 hours away though. The Park is half way between where they live and where I live.

Today's been a lazy day. Infact...I've been pretty much lethargic the entire week. I'm in the process of changing brokerage firms to an office that provides much better pay and that process doesn't start going underway until next week sometime. So I'm in between worlds...so to speak.

Today I dedicated the whole day for recovery since I had a crazy, exhausting week with total maybe 10 hours of sleep for the whole damn week. So tried to kill some sleep debt and woke up late. Now I am just listening music, reading and playing some sleazy guitar.. maybe I go to the walk and check some books I have wanted to read lately or eating in a restaurant.

Just been lazy, playing lots of bass and doing...pretty much nothing else but browse the internet. Went and cashed my paycheck and went to Taco Bell for a very late lunch, mainly because when I asked my stepdad "when's dinner?" he replied "in about four hours". And it was almost 5:00 when he said that. So saith Lëzen: "Fucketh that!" What freaks eat dinner at 9:00 at night? It's inhuman.

Anyway, I wasn't able to train with Slip today, since he had an allergic reaction to his sinus infection medicine that made the skin all over his body all rashy and bumpy. Hooray for medical blunders.

Hope your friend recovers quickly Lezen... and you too, Unelias. Jeff Hope everything gets settled quickly!

Yesterday I whimped out of yard saling (not a word- who cares, I just made it one ). I didn't even wake up yesterday until around 11:00. Then I picked up Wendy's for me and hubby at 12:30 (which I ate very little of)... I went back out at around 2:00 but went to the Dollar Tree. I managed to spend about $43. there
Then I went to a yard sale and grabbed a few non-essential items: another end table for $3. and some knick-knacks. After that I went to the Dollar General about bought a bathroom carpet set for $10. plus a few other non-essentials.
I have $85.00 left for the rest of the week. $40. will go into the gas tank about $15. will go for food for my visit with the kids tomorrow. So much for buying real food for the Farm. How the heck did I manage to waste so much money? It's a real talent, I tell you!

Today, I am doing nothing and going nowhere if I have my way about it.
Well, I will pack two more boxes and fill a bunch more bags and load them into the car. Other than that, I'm going to enjoy the internet, Hulu and Cable as much as I can I take the TV, computer and game systems to the Farm tomorrow. There's really no telling how long I'll be away from all you great people
On the upside, though, I'm going to quit smoking AGAIN and I might write some more.

I woke up sick.
I went to the bathroom and threw up.
I threw up again.
I laid down.
I went to the bathroom to throw up.
I couldn't make it to the toilet.
I threw up in my tub.
Now I'm playing TF2.

Improvement to the earlier note : I throw away the idea of recovery and went to dojo to spar for couple of hours Now I just take a good, cold shower and eat some before I get back to the barracks.

jack shit.

Woke up, went out to breakfast, helped my dad refinishing our 2nd floor, went to see his friend play guitar with a band, bought a $20 bag, smoked a little, then later shared a couple beers with my dad while we watched Black Hawk Down.

Did a lot today

Went to the store today and blew about $80 on groceries since I'm being oh-so-nice and helping out my now unemployed parents pay for groceries. On the bright side, A) it would have been closer to $100 if my stepdad hadn't let me use his Safeway Club Card and B) I bought a lot of what I want, for once. Which means lots of blueberries. Why the hell do we never have blueberries? They're awesome.

Other than that, visited with my nephew, played bass, argued with my mom about why vampire romances are cliché, ate dinner and watched the first episode of Star Trek: TNG.

Headin' off to ze beds to prepares meself for ze hells tomorrow. Another day, another dime...

This is my last post at DV for awhile I am moving today. As soon as I finish this cigarette I'll be loading the TV, comp and game systems into the car.

I've had a seriously crazy day today. I didn't sleep last night, but I've been doing fine. My judgement WAS affected though
I used my GPS to get from the facility my younger boy is at to the Park because I'm unfamiliar with the area. On the way TO the park, everything went okay. I drove on an off-road for awhile, but it was nothing major.
But then I saved the address for the park instead of having just the City name and on the way back
My Garmin showed a road where only a trail was behind some guys house in the middle of nowhere. Judgement impaired me decides to give it a go, forgetting that I no longer have a 4-wheel drive vehicle.
The "road" (more like an over-grown ATV trail), declined very quickly and the middle of the way had been rutted from rain. I tried to stradle the path, but then I went over a rock that was much bigger than I thought and the rear of my caravan became hung up.

I only drive my boys "home" and they were still with me. They were majorly freaking out lol and jumped out of the car as soon as I stopped. My oldest boy tried to push the vehicle but it was a no-go. I looked at the problem and with the observations of my younger son, I found a suitable tree "branch". We shoved it under the rear end and I told my boys to lift up on it when I said go. The car came right off the rock.

I then realized that I had a 2nd and lower gear I put it to low and stradled the path very slowly. Then I feel my car start to slip into the rut and I stopped. I told my boys to bring the weaker branches we had found and lay them inside the rut so my car wouldn't fall into it and would have better traction.

It worked perfectly.

Thankfully, the trail was a short one and ended at a "real" road. It was so funny because I was sweet-talking my car the whole way "You can do it girl... I promise to never put you in this situation again."
I named my GPS "Mildred" and when the boys got into the car I was saying "You let me down Mildred. TWICE in one day!" (earlier she told me to go down a road that dead-ended lol).

My boys were hot, tired, dirty and just a tad grumpy. I told them "Oh ye of little faith in your mother and her car" My oldest boy said having a cigarette would give him faith lol. I told him not a chance Bub.
I told them we just made a memory that they would recall for the rest of their lives.

The car doesn't seem to be damaged.
But I'm exhausted. I won't be getting any sleep tonight either.

As we drove further along I noticed a spider had found it's way onto my dashboard. It was the most awesome thing I've ever seen. It was black with white marking and appeared as if it had a "shell" (like a hermit crab). The "shell" was sort of spiked. I have never seen anything like it before.

Take care everyone. Hopefully, I won't be gone for too long.

Bye, Zhalyin, good luck.

You will be missed.

Still at work, got half an hour left before going home, so why not dick around on the internet? Today's been crazy...my coworker Scott is gone on vacation for the week, so I've basically got invoicing and receiving on my hands, as well as my usual AP tasks. Oh well. 'Least it gives me more to do. It always feels good knowing that my next paycheck'll be earned rather than just received.

Probably gonna train with Slip sometime after I get home, he told me on Saturday that his allergic reaction should have subsided by this time. This time I'll bring my bass so we can jam/compose after our grueling routine.
