(Untitled)
I was leaving work around seven and was behind a few cars at the intersection of 168th and Blondo and noticed nobody was moving even though the light was green. I couldn’t see anything with the cars in front of me so I figured there had either been an accident (though I didn’t see any police lights flashing) or somebody had stalled. I figured ( Read more... ) -
Holiday Parties
Yesterday there was a HUGE fire in the kitchen! It was really scary! It was after lunch was served to the residents and I was sitting in the dining room on lunch break with Mike (the cook), Matt (the dishwasher) and Brittanie and Brooke (also servers like me). A nurse came to put her dirty dishes in the bus tub and she asks us, "Is there suppose to ( Read more... ) -
Game Night
I had Game Night at my place yesterday night. I had chips and salsa and veggies and dip (and even candy canes!) on hand, but everyone else brought their own beer. Erica and Shawn were the first to arrive. They brought the game we would be playing: Cards Against Humanity. Annie arrived a few minutes later. The last time I had saw her at the sushi ( Read more... ) -

Carol, the Executive Director at HP asked four of us from the dining staff if we could work this extra this weekend for about four hours in the evening to help out the nursing staff because they are low on staff at the moment. She said they have hired six new people, but are still doing background checks. She said she needed someone in the main ( Read more... ) -
Thanksgiving Weekend
I went to Lincoln after work Wednesday. Bill and Kelly were already there with Gracie and Emma. This was my first time meeting Emma and she is such a good-natured baby! We had our big Thanksgiving meal of the usual: turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, rutabaga, dressing, cranberry sauce, lefse, olives and pickles, pumpkin pie and cherry pie. The ( Read more... ) -
Bar Hopping in Benson
I went out last night to a few bars in Benson with Cameron and his other friends. There was Jenn, who I had met before. We both attended one of Cameron's birthdays at Dave and Busters and she came out to karaoke with us one night. There was Lauren, who I had never met but had heard about because she's a very close friend of his. And rounding out ( Read more... ) -
The future of Back to the Future has finally arrived
So yesterday was a big day for Back to the Future fans as October 21, 2015 is the day that Marty and Doc (and an unconscious Jennifer) go to when they visit the "future" that is 2015 (hehe) in Back To The Future Part II. For them, that was 30 years away since the movie took place in the "present" in 1985 (although the second movie was released in ( Read more... ) -
It's About Damn Time!
Hallelujah! The ramp onto Dodge from 168th is finally open! This is what I would usually take to go home from work, but it's been under construction since at least May, maybe even April, I really don't remember when it was first closed because it's been so long. I've had to use an alternate route to get home which wasn't too terribly out of the way ( Read more... ) -

Happy Birthday to me (tomorrow)
My parents came up today to celebrate my birthday (which is tomorrow). We went to see "Everest" - opening day! I was looking forward to see it because I had read "Into Thin Air" which accounts the fatal climbing expedition which happened in 1996. And of course I cried during the movie. We saw it at Village Pointe and I had no idea they had a ( Read more... )
