It has been a super long time since I have posted.  I have been wanting to post, and of course a lot of changes have been going on here, but it has been hard to get to the computer.  I pretty much check up on livejournal, facebook, and my email, but I haven't really been contributing much.  Can't really say why.
So there has been a lot going on over ( Read more... )

We have DSL and are back online!  I am sure to have a lot to talk about, right?  Well there are a few things going on, I suppose.

The house.

Love it.  It has been a rough transition for the dogs, which was unexpected, and of course there are a lot of expenses in the begininng, but it has been pretty fun being in our new place.  The dogs stomachs were ( Read more... )

I know it has been a while since I have posted.  I have been pretty busy lately, which is a good thing.  I believe that last time I had posted I was still in limbo at my temporary job.  Well since then I have found out that I am going to be hired on permanently.  I just started working on my new team, and I will be hired on as soon as my contract ( Read more... )

From two weeks ago:
Things in my working life are going the same as last time I posted.  I am going on 2 weeks of being in some kind of in-between-jobs-limbo.  I just decided not to have a shitty attitude about the whole thing and just go with it.  I have a lot of things to say about the situation, but it is boring and useless at this point, so I ( Read more... )

I found the "Best of the Joy of Painting" on tv the other day so I set it to record with our DVR.  Bob Ross has such a soothing voice and he is such a lovable hippie.  I like to watch it, and so does Steve.  So today I attempted to make a Bob Ross style painting while watching one of the shows.  I don't have the same paint brushes that he does, so ( Read more... )

I did watch some of the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet, which I prefer much more than the Super Bowl.  Especially this year because they had a Cavalier King Charles in the starting line up!  Although a chihuahua/pug mix was giving the Cav a run for it's money on cuteness ( Read more... )

I had two job interviews this week, one lead to scheduling a face-to-face interview for Monday. The job sounds pretty decent, and a permanent position is always welcome-so we will see how things go on Monday ( Read more... )

Our house guest, John, left on Sunday. It was really fun having him around, but I know that 2 weeks was a little long for him and probably for us too. We had a lot of little adventures and it was nice to get to know one of Steve's oldest friends a little better ( Read more... )

I had an awesome time getting one new tire and an alignment for my car. Only cost me $350. Getting custom wheels is so expensive, and the maintenance is so expensive. I still need another tire, so within the next month we are going to have to spend another $250. So fun.

This past week I have been hanging out our house guest, and getting various unemployment stuff done. Lets see, so far I have been doing a lot of shopping, and visiting various sites around the Seattle/Eastside area. Tuesday we went to one of our favorite pubs in Redmond where they were having a trivia night. Too bad we got there too late to ( Read more... )
