I had a long day.  I had taken the day off because I had scheduled a dentist appointment in the morning and a dermatologist appointment in the afternoon.  They were both in the Cool Springs area so I made a day of it.

My day started at about 8:15 AM.  I woke up, had some breakfast and got dressed.  Of course I flossed and brushed because my dentist ( Read more... )

It has been 14 weeks since I last wrote.  Lot's has happened in that time.  There was the holiday season, which was great.  So much good food and good time with family and friends.  There has been the writers' strike, which has affected most of my favorite TV shows (I know it is an unpopular thing to say, but I LOVE TV).  Work has gotten a bit more ( Read more... )

Sarah Chalke, who plays Dr. Elliot Reid on "Scrubs" (a/k/a Blonde Doctor), was Becky Connor (a/k/a Becky Connor-Healy) on "Rosanne."  How did I not realize this sooner?!  Gotta love IMBd.

P.S. The air conditioner was finally fixed at work! :)

 I thought it was a joke when I heard it this morning, but the copper was stolen off 3 of our air conditioner units again.  There is all sorts of damage.  The insurance company thought it was a joke when I called.  I won't rant about the street people again today, but I will say that having an office in the ghetto has made me much less ( Read more... )

The other day, I found Wasabi powder in the "Ethnic Foods" section of Publix.  I decided to buy it because I like the flavor.  When I was waiting to check out, I noticed that all it needed was a little bit of water to make a Wasabi paste.  I tried it last night.  It was good (and very spicy).  I dipped carrots in it.  Now I just need to learn how ( Read more... )

I had a great 3 day weekend!  I did a bit of housework, watched a lot of TV, goofed of online and hung out with Chris.  I had planned to bring some work home with me, but I'm glad I didn't.  I'll have to do that this week though.  Yesterday I tried to pan-fry some frozen fried green tomatoes that I had bought at Wal-Mart a while back.  I had tried ( Read more... )

I wasn't feeling too well yesterday so I came home and went to bed.  I woke up for about an hour, but I went back to sleep until 10 AM today!  I got up for a doctor's appointment.  The doctor wrote me a prescription for some antibiotics.  I got that filled and came home and slept a few more hours.  Needless to say, I am well-rested.  I still think ( Read more... )

I hate that my first entry in over 3 weeks is a rant, but that's how it is going to be.  I'm sitting in my 80 degree apartment right now.  My air conditioner is not working properly.  The girl who answered the phone at the office said "What's wrong with it today Allison?"  There's been something wrong with it every time I've called, but it has ( Read more... )

I just finished Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.  Wow!  What an emotional ride I went on with that book!  I can't believe the series is over!  I won't write anymore about it just yet though to give others some time to read it.  But if you have read it, lets talk!

I've been busy! Work, meetups, spending time with the guy I like, watching Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, rereading the last two Harry Potter books before the final one is released, reading book club books, and trying to keep in touch with old friends.  I've also started a hand-written journal where I write down my thoughts and feelings ( Read more... )
