vacation from vacation

I'm tired. As excited as I am for heading out for my annual trip to Lake George for New Years, I'm tired. And I can't wait till next sunday, my next FULL day off with really nothing to do but recover.

And since that will be the day after the bandits game, I'm intending on being hungover then as well.

(E:Janelle) or (E:drew) - Let me know when we can drop off the key. (e:lauren) will be out running errands and should be able to drop off the key, if need be. But she doesn't remember where you live either (she was absolutely no help to me in finding your place) so maybe she will go door to door!

This list errand list is too long to write.

cereal

Its kind of cute how every morning as I eat my cereal at the computer desk, my cat sits patiently at the edge of the desk, staring longingly at the bowl. He never gets any, but somehow he knows that what is in that bowl is reaaally good.

Last night I was trimming ralphie's obscenely long nails and cut one too close. He was bleeding so much, both (e:lauren) and I were crying. He was fine, we were crying.

we went to my uncle's on Saturday night. He lives on fort niagara. As in his house is next to the giant walls of the fort. He actually lives in the lighthouse keepers house. We walked through the castle by 'candlelight', froze to death and then played 'you might be a redneck if' with a few family members. (e:lauren) and I won. Oh yeah.

Shoveling is good exercise, huh? I got to dig out my car twice this weekend, and (e:lauren)'s car once. The problem is that we have no place to put the snow in the parking lot, so I was throwing the snow over a 6 foot plus high fence. My shoulders are crying.

And last night we ran out to wegmans for some essentials and when we got back, some idiot was parked across two spaces. I had to squeeze into the last space that was barely possible, and I'm sure that somebody did not get to park in the lot. (e:lauren) wrote 'douche' across the back of their car in snow, but when I looked outside later - somebody had wiped it off. how sad.

I'm unsure as to how this morning is about to progress. I'm rather nervous, to be quite frank, of going outside, digging myself out and attempting to drive to, of all places, Springville. I have to be there by 8:30. I should be leaving in two minutes if I want to get there on time.

I have tucked my dress pants into my tube socks. what the hell is wrong with me?

Thanks for the quickstop offer, we used flour and it helped a little. We won't be at the new years party tho, I'm sorry!

And I'm sorry about the cereal tease!

heidi writes at 01:18:12 12/23/08 - Comment #43661: does anyone know if the pedi-paws works? (my friend A keeps calling it pedi-file! oi! we almost bought one tonight)

tinypliny writes at 09:54:34 12/22/08 - Comment #43655: Oh man. Talk about cheating your readers. Your post was around 0.5% about "cereal". *Pout*

libertad writes at 01:42:02 12/22/08 - Comment #43633: Oh poor Ralphie! He is sooo cute. Do you have any kwik-stop syptic powder to stop the bleeding? I have some in case I ever cut my wab's nails too short. If you want some I can bring you some at the party. I have much more than I ever would need.

fellyconnelly writes at 01:37:04 12/22/08 - Comment #43631: Yes, it is not pleasing to me to drive to springville, but I guess I don't have too much choice.

My grandparents live on lake road btwn youngstown and wilson so I'm used to the area, moreso than buffalo! But yes its a beautiful place for him to live and can't wait to view it in warmer (daylight) temperatures!

theecarey writes at 12:07:00 12/22/08 - Comment #43623: ahhh! I wondered if someone actually lived there all year long. It is such a far way into the fort that it would creep me out at night, especially in the winter. Although it might be kinda cool too.

I live in Youngstown right near the fort, so it amuses me when people venture into my little neck of the woods here.

Poor Ralphie, now I am going to think of him when I see those commercials for the "pedi-paws"- that grinder like nail trimmer. I've never cut my cats nails too short to where they bleed, but crying from me would ensue for sure!

drat

sorry i missed the party last night...
it was almost ten when i finally got home and was too exhausted for partying. Retail is hell this time of the year.
sounds like a great time though, and I'm thoroughly jealous. I wish it was tonight! Of course then it would have probably been snowed out.

today im painting while lauren works on her paper.

tomorrow is family time (drinking with family=interesting ALWAYS)

sunday or monday lauren is leaving me for like... a week...

how lame boring and alone.

ah well... get a helmet.

tis the season

Holiday shopping season is in full swing and I am determined to make my mark. I am not one of those crazy money hungry salespersons - but I need to keep myself in a high swing positive push towards excellent sales. No, you are not wasting my time paying your bills. I love paying your bills. Why don't you pay your bills online again?

I digress.

We watched Wall E last night and I have to say, it was absolutely adorable. Cute as hell and 'hello' did anyone notice that Wall E is actually Johnny 5?

I'm going to go visit my family this weekend. As in the family that lives 45 minutes north of me across the lake. Yes I need to plan entire weekends around such an event. We will probably go to fort Niagara and see the 'Castle by Candlelight' which is pretty sweet.

New years we are heading out to Lake George again. Weds through Sunday, which means a) we will not be going to the estrip new years party and b) we will not get to go to my employee appreciation party on saturday - which is the buffalo bandits game with open bar/buffet etc. Garbage.

anyways, off to work!

history repeats itself.

here i am... warm.. inside... drinking my coffee.

i'm thinking about the blank cds I have in the car. That I brought home yesterday. That I need to download the audio book that I want to listen on my way TO work.

If cds=outside and felly=inside then what is the probability that felly will be listening to audio books on her way to work this am?

balls.

The book, incidentally, is "That's not in my American History Book"

Which I have listened to cd #1 already. Because that was the 1 CD that I had in my house.

Who was the first person in flight on a plane?

What day was Independence actually declared from England?

What is the name of the 14th state that was denied entry into the original 13?

these are very important questions that everyone should be asking.
