long weekends
It was kind of nice, to have a three-day weekend with no obligations. My folks went out of town with one of my dad's coworkers, so we didn't have any 4th of July plans. I was off work on Friday, spent the day sleeping in and playing games. Saturday I went to the Apple Store and (after waiting in a ten minute line for help) talked to someone ( Read more... ) -
with my headphones on
So, I was all proud of myself for the deal I got on my cellphone, turns out there was SO a reason for it being cheap. Terrible, awful phone. So, I took it to the store with my mom (since I am not a registered user on the account, go figure) and exchanged it. Suprisingly, she actually encouraged me to get what I wanted, which was an iPhone, since ( Read more... ) -
Adventures in Apartment Rentership, part Deux.
So, y'all remember the story from a few months ago about the apartment that gave us the shaft, basically, going back on their price because we didn't respond in the time frame even though we totally did.

this has not been a good week.
Suffice it to say that this will go down as one of the worst weeks I've had in a long time. Monday started out terrible, I was *really* late to work because I overslept, and I felt like an idiot and a jerk. But I talked to my boss and everything was ok. I still felt bad, and when I feel bad I do things that make me feel better, and that usually ( Read more... ) -

OPERATION EASTER BUNNY IS GO
I totally just snuck into my parent's house at 1:30AM and left three Easter baskets on the dining room table. Win ( Read more... ) -
rollercoasters
So, on Monday Sarah and I went to look at another apartment. I was looking online and found a really nice one for about $175 cheaper than what we are paying now, so we went to check it out. Of course, it was a special deal, but turns out the apartment was managed by the same company who owns the place we have now. They had an apartment available ( Read more... ) -
general updatings
I just want you to know, I am still alive. I just haven't updated LJ in a while. I've started like, seven different entries, but never got around to finishing them ( Read more... ) -
today
So, my mother had a stroke. A small...mild I guess, stroke, on the right side of her brain. She woke up this morning and had no feeling at all in her left arm. She's a nurse, though, so when it didn't go away like what happens when your arm falls asleep or something, she knew she needed to go to the ER. She had a bunch of different tests done, ( Read more... ) -
step 1: smash head into wall. step 2: repeat.
So, what was a relatively unexciting, boring, not-at-all interesting weekend turned very sour very quickly. And by that I mean, I did my taxes on Sunday and apparently I owe the guvm'nt quite a bit, actually. I guess they haven't been taking enough out of my paychecks, which, hey, you know, I can't really complain that much. But now I have to ( Read more... )
