disaster in lala land

I am a genius. I have ordered a bed from amazon.com using my gift certificates. Free bed, hoorah, right? well if i wasn't such an idiot, it would be a wonderful situation.
instead....

i ordered a california king sized bed. i have a king sized bed. what does this mean? about a foot and a half either at the head or foot of the bed. and a lot less room in an already 'quaint' (small) apartment. yeah thats right, felly is the smartest chick on the block.

So for now, we have removed our egg crate from the top of the bed, rolled it up and covered it with a sheet and kept it at the head of the bed. eventually we are going to have some type of construction project with foam and batting or something, but in the mean time its just.... well i'm an idiot...

blue eyed husky

on the way home from work - on 190 - a beautiful husky was in the road. everyone stopped and had their blinkers on... a few people were trying to catch it. i had my friend on speakerphone - and she was blah blah blahing away about something that i honestly wasn't listening to because she didn't pause long enough for me to interrupt her to tell her what was going on.

the dog went to the side of my car and the guy in front of me sped off... the dog went back in front of my car and i sat there not wanting to creep ahead and scare it away.

then it jumped the median into the other lane. i saw an SUV swerve (and almost lose it) and then i saw another car slam on its breaks. i thought i might have heard a thump before it stopped.

i don't know what exactly happened to the dog. there were already several people out of their cars and i was the front of traffic so i had to move ahead. i couldn't bear to look so i had to go on ahead. i eventually realized that my friend was still talking away even though had screamed when the dog jumped the median and was yelling at the other cars flying in the opposite directin to stop as if they could hear me with the windows rolled up.

it was traumatizing. it was such a beautiful happy dog. if somebody finds out what happened to it, please let me know..

thursday night jamfest under my window

i've had a bit of a break from the world of posting - due to a new life change... WORK! hoorah!
seriously though, after a whole month off... well.. its taking a bit of getting used to being back in the forty hour week game. plus commute.
its great though... the job is fun... the people are fun... time flies by!

also it is a very busy store... people in and out all day long... which will be great for commissions as well as for keeping the time a movin towards 'see ya later!'

other than that, i'm just excited for sat night - not only is it the end of my work week - hoorah for e party!

please please please don't you guys let me drink too much sat night - i have my nephews birthday party sunday at 2 and my cousin's housewarming at 6. take the drink out of my hand and smack me in the face! well not too hard... i'm sensitive you see...

okay and lauren is busy reading some ridiculously complicated feminist theory book and sid (fat cat) is laying on her back. i'm sure that the weight of his fatty fatness is causing some type of spinal damage as we speak. i am going to save her.

grumble grumble

Lauren went to school today. So today, my last official day of my month long vacation (the thought of it burns holes in my stomach lining) i am sitting at home bored.
i already ironed clothes, polished my shoes, spoke to my mother, watered the plants and had a good chat with them while putting them out on the balcony for fresh air and some sun, watched a documentary on mind control and cleaned the kitchen...
i have two options.. being creative or gang warfare on grand theft auto.

sigh the choices we make...

oh and also i figured out how to put my aol IM thingie online. in case any of you cared. yeah

yeah hi i'm going to draw... (shoot gangsters)

meerkat manor is bringin sexy back

awesome time last night guys! you are all wonderful and fun people!!
thanks for such a wonderful time.. and thanks (e:terry) for making sure we went to the big scary lesbo bar...

for all those not in the know, last night we went... well... i guess we were barhoppin all over allen street! and i got to finally meet many (e:peeps)! and lauren and i both ended up being highly drunk. i don't know how you guys do it... i'm too old apparently... lol

today we woke at 11. we decided not to go up to visit my brother and hit the Wilson Field days. because i felt like poo.
then i got a call from said brother to let me know that if we were coming up and found him not there - its because he had to take his wife to the emergency room for splashing boiling oil from the chicken fryer on herself. apparently her neck has a lot of burns, and some burns on her arms... she was sent home with some burn cream and pain killers - but it apparently looks bad enough that she is going to have some serious scars...

then i check my myspace and find that my friend mel in florida fell on her dog and broke her nose.

and then i think i shouldn't even leave the house today - but no... apparently we are going to go check out the walden galleria (is this a bad idea???) because lauren wants to get some new clothes...

i hate trying on clothes... seriously...

anyway - tomorrow we will hit the elmwood festival...

OH and lauren bought us tickets to see ani difranco at her church in september. i don't know why i thought you would want to know that... but there you go.
oh and she is on the couch looking cute right now. lauren, not ani difranco.

mike writes at 12:31:16 08/27/07 - Comment #23140: i love shopping! The galleria is good and expanded recently, it is the mall around here that has the most choices and stores. The Outlet mall though has good deals cuz it is outlet and also has a lot of stores but not as many as the galleria. I go to the outlet mall when i am in the mood to go "hiking". I don't relaly like the outdoors and am more about asphalt and at the outlet mall you can walk outside so I go there when I am in a "naturey" mood.

fellyconnelly writes at 10:52:51 08/26/07 - Comment #23094: hmmm i knew that vitamin E was good for the skin - just didn't know of it as a oil/roller form... interesting... maybe i'll pick some up this week and give it to her next sunday when i see her... i'd imagine you shouldn't put it on TOO soon...

james writes at 10:32:58 08/25/07 - Comment #23077: Vitamin E is a fat soluble vitamin. This means you can cram vitamin E into an oil base. A roller is just a vial of E oil that you can uncap and roll over an area. It helps with healing the skin. I don't know how bad the burns are, but this should help recovery some.

And the outlet mall has good deals as well as a big selection. I hate people and I hate commerce. So I try to avoid shopping as much as possible. grrr

fellyconnelly writes at 09:58:01 08/25/07 - Comment #23070: we thought about it... perhaps we will make it up there at some point - but is it better deals at the outlet malls? or just a greater selection?

and (e:james) what is a vitamin E roller? does it work? i'm assuming it works since you just suggested it... but yeah

james writes at 07:59:22 08/25/07 - Comment #23066: Yikes! Tell your brother to get a vitamin E roller for the poor woman.

jenks writes at 05:59:51 08/25/07 - Comment #23064: I'm not really into shopping either, but as far as malls go I think the galleria is pretty decent...

jim writes at 05:48:17 08/25/07 - Comment #23062: 20 minutes away in Niagara Falls, there is a semi-decent outlet mall :::link:::

going out?

lauren and i are considering going out tonight
on allen street somewhere
just for a couple of drinks...

anyone care to join us? or have suggestions as to where?

james writes at 06:58:23 08/24/07 - Comment #23009: Well, I will put my vote in for Coulter Bay on account of the Blue Moon and headache. As if somehow the magic of one will dispel the other.

drew writes at 06:31:00 08/24/07 - Comment #23007: I think the ball is in your court on that decision. Read the reviews and pick one!

fellyconnelly writes at 06:19:29 08/24/07 - Comment #23006: okay so did you guys decide where we are going yet?
i'm going to go relax/have dinner... i think i'm getting a headache which is NOT good... pooey

james writes at 06:17:14 08/24/07 - Comment #23005: Coulter Bay has Blue moon on draft.

:::link:::

james writes at 06:15:19 08/24/07 - Comment #23004: It doesn't look like they have blue moon
:::link:::
that is their beer/wine list

janelle writes at 05:30:10 08/24/07 - Comment #23001: Drew thinks they might have it bottles, but neither one of us is sure.

fellyconnelly writes at 05:27:29 08/24/07 - Comment #22999: here is a deal breaker... does the hardware have blue moon? i'm an addict and if i don't get my blue moon fix i'm afraid i'll be plum crazy.

drew writes at 05:25:21 08/24/07 - Comment #22997: We can be at any bar you name after 8pm! We even started pre-gaming!

lauren writes at 03:54:17 08/24/07 - Comment #22993: Awwwww! Ya'll are so sweeeet.
Ok, but seriously folks...we are talking a not to late, only a couple and by couple I mean two or three at the most kinda night. It seems to me that there is some disagreement among those who wish to accompany us...now please don't fight even though we are so very cool and all...hehe, yeah, but where to go? We have been to only one bar on Allen so we are open to whatever you suggest. Do respond.

jason writes at 02:59:46 08/24/07 - Comment #22988: Colter Bay (B+): I like it there. They have a version of the "Group Therapy" that keeps the 6 shots of whiskey but replaces typical bar beer with Stella Artois. Muy delicioso. Mixed crowd. I think there is a dart board. Has a patio, and the inside I would say is spacious enough for me. I would say above average beer variety, average liquor quality. Overall it's a pretty good joint, my favorite of the three by a very small margin.

Hardware (B): For me, the best atmosphere of the three, although it does get very busy and very crowded because of the small size of the place. Nice music usually. Pretty good selection of booze of all kinds, although they don't have all of the beers that I like (within reasonable parameters, I don't expect all bars to carry St. Bernardus Abt 12). Stocked with hipsters, posers and wannabes who want to look classy drinking wine, although they wouldn't know the difference between a Chateau Lefite and a Chateau Elmwood. Go ahead and try to find a parking spot, I dare you. Overall, a nice joint to visit and get a little saucy, once you get in the door.

Mother's (B-): A misanthrope's paradise. The most upscale of the three, with the best booze selection. If you like whiskey, they have Oban, which is the only reason why Josh would ever go to Mother's. Filled to the fucking brim with wannabe trophy wives, effete fakesters, and all sorts of people I despise. Oh yeah, and you're forced to deal with them too, because usually it's packed like you're in a cigarette box. As a result it is difficult to get drinks. Usually I can stand about 30 minutes there before compulsively wanting to leave. Remove all of that, and you have what could be a very, very nice upscale bar. Just get your fantastic booze and keep your elbows out.

jbeatty writes at 01:56:25 08/24/07 - Comment #22974: Oh btw if you guys are still out after I get out of work I would love to go. Although I shouldn't be out to late because Im going to Syracuse to work in the morning.

james writes at 01:47:09 08/24/07 - Comment #22972

I disagree with my two learned colleagues. You aren Lauen seem not only uncool but Hardware smells like wet dog.

BANG* *CRASH* *POW*

ahem, now that my evil twin has been defeated but lives to fight another day, I will beg and whine to see if (e:Jim) would like to go out.

And Coulter Bay has delicious, delicious sweet beer.

jbeatty writes at 01:19:44 08/24/07 - Comment #22967: I agree with Janelle, both about the supremely cool part and about Allen Street Hardware. Mother's is pretty cool as well although kinda pricey imho. Colter Bay has some really good beers on tap as well.

janelle writes at 01:14:23 08/24/07 - Comment #22965: Depending on the time, you might be able to persuade (e:Drew) and myself to go, especially since he has declared you and Lauren to be supremely cool, lol.
We've both been to and enjoyed the Allen Street Hardware Cafe.
