And Chris, Mr. "I can adjust my mirrors so there's no blind spot" backed into a pole with his Prius. So now BOTH of our Priuses need new bumpers.

In cool news, my aunt Ruth got a 2010 Prius! They did the cash for clunkers thing though, and had to take what was on the lot, so it doesn't have the sunroof or other special features, just fairly basic ( Read more... )

 My application for the promotion did not get lost this time.

I have an interview on Monday. I have to interview with my old mentor and my old cubemate, which should make things interesting and strange.

Got a migraine today before work. That was fun, since I had to stare at a computer under flourescent lights for the rest of the night.  Tried going outside on break, which was good until we walked to the sunny side of the building (at which point my coworkers decided we should go inside so I stop cowering into any possible shade)

Going for another ( Read more... )

 So, I had said earlier that I had purchased Kevin Smith tickets for Mpls. Apparently Chris has something going on that day. So we are going to go to the Chicago show instead.

Therefore.... anyone want 2 Kevin Smith tickets for the Minneapolis show? They're center aisle seats. 

 Chris is at Comic-Con right now.

Being that they always have implied that any pain is just "muscular" and that everything would be fine after healing from the surgery, I am quite amused by the first question:

 I'm stuck in an airport with 2 gates,and nothing of value past security. There's 3 vending machines and 1 tv... that's it.
Our flight from Kalamazoo has been delayed by an hour. Joy. And Chris decided we should go through security about half an hour early (because he wouldn't pay attention to me when I was questioning it). Double joy.

Just saw a ( Read more... )

 Just found out that the in-laws are attending the wedding we're going to this weekend.
I swear I had asked Chris and he implied he didn't think they'd go. 
And I was looking forward to a nice, relaxing long weekend in Kalamazoo, MI.

Someone at work sent me this comic. I think I giggled for 3 minutes straight. Then again, I was so bored I made a tree out of binder clips yesterday, which I was debating about adding paperclip leaves to today.

I'm in need of a new corset/bodice for Ren Fest. My old one no longer fits since I am now sized like a normal human. 
I found one I like but I am not sure what to get for fabric. The dress I have still fits fine, and that is a deep purple with black accents, so maybe black, but then there's choices such as velveteen, brocade, canvas, etc.  I really ( Read more... )
