I don't really have much to write. I ended up having to work Thanksgiving Day, which sucked. The only positive thing about it was getting to come in early. Also, I spent the first half of the day setting the Thanksgiving Day ad for Fashions. Nobody really seemed to care about Fashions, which was good. There was a line in Electronics that ( Read more... )

I just e-mailed my mother. Typing that sentence seems so strange. Up until a couple of weeks ago, my mom didn't even know how to turn on a computer. One of our neighbors once said that computers were the Anti-Christ, and my mom wholeheartedly agreed. But she finally decided to start learning how to use computers. She now knows how to log on to ( Read more... )

I guess this result isn't too surprising. I was amused by "Southern" coming in second. I suppose this has something to do with being married to someone who was born and raised in South Carolina, and visiting the region at least two or three times a year. I ought to give my husband this quiz. I wonder if his top two answers would be the reverse ( Read more... )

I figured I'd dash off a quick entry before I head to bed. I've really been slacking on writing in lj over the last year, and I need to startwriting more. Anyway, today Michael, my mom, and I met my Aunt Sue and my cousin Kevin in Ann Arbor for the Ann Arbor Antiques Market. It was fun. Naturally, I saw a few things that I wanted to get. We saw ( Read more... )

VH1 just had an I Love the Nineties special on, specifically 1999 Part Deux. I feel old now. That was the year I graduated from high school, and now it's being memorialized in the "I Love the Blank Decade" show. Frightening.

I need to write a decent update, but I haven't had time, so this will be short and sweet. Almost immediately after returning home from South Carolina, I got sick. I had an intestinal bug of some sort. It was of the Montezuma's revenge variety. I was nauseous and had stomach cramps, but never threw up. I mostly just had days on end where I was ( Read more... )

So...I have been in South Carolina for a week now. Today is our last day in Greenville. We leave tomorrow. We got into town around 7 p.m. last Sunday, with my brother-in-law Thomas in tow. My father-in-law took us to Guadalajara's, a local Mexican place, for dinner. On Sunday, we slept late and hung around the house. On Sunday evening, we ( Read more... )

We finally have an IKEA! They had a grand opening today in Canton (which isn't too far from where my husband works). It's kind of far from where we live, which sucks. Maybe they'll build one a little bit closer if this new store is a success. Unfortunately I had to miss it. Maybe I'll make it over there this weekend sometime. I have been ( Read more... )
