chai latte

Verizon Home Services....


So... i hate to ah.. advertise or whatever...

But if anyone is interested in any verizon home services - such as high speed internet - or, in some parts of the area, FIOS, then let me know and I can get you running. Actually I can get you running faster than calling up and asking for it yourself.

and yes i do get commission for it.


and for all you sabres fan, Rob Ray will be at my verizon lockport store tomorrow from 2-4 signing autographs. it is our 5 year anniversary. Also cake and stuff.

ok enough work plugs.

I made an amazing chai tea latte and i need to go enjoy it.

addendum

Last post I asked 'why is it snowing?'

and it was because estrip told me so. I didn't realize it was REALLY snowing!

And the best thing about cookies that taste more like sweet bread is that you don't feel bad about eating them for breakfast.

Also Waking Life? A movie that doesn't require you to be stoned. It is a movie that requires you to be tripping. Or maybe I just felt like I was.

Off to Springville!

beer and cookies?

why is it snowing?

today i made cookies AND beer.

And by cookies - i mean sweet bread cakes. since i used wheat flour and applesauce its not very cookie like.

And by beer I mean I brewed a red ale and added butterscotch schnapps. Its called a 'Wee Heavy'. how exciting.

Also ate at Sahara Grill. Food was ok (we tried new things that I couldn't even begin to remember much less pronounce!) but it was cold as hell and they sat us right in front of the big screen tv so we watched the simpsons while we ate.

Now we are going to watch waking life. I hear you need to be stoned to watch this movie.

long gratuitous post.

i'm sitting on my balcony posting. Its nice to be outside and warm in November. Even if I get wierded out by the neighbors so close by on their balcony.
Today we drove out to Lockport to drop off (e:lauren)'s car at the shop for an inspection. We decided to spend the day off playing. We stopped by my work (on my day off even i can't stay away) and lauren picked out the phone she wants when our sprint contract come up in the middle of the month.

My boss took us out to lunch at Quiznos - which was more than wonderful. Then we drove out to the cemetery in lock port and walked around in search of my uncle ralph. after finding him, we took photos of ralphie on uncle ralphs gravestone. We wandered around quite a bit - and ralphie was ecstatic since we let him be off the leash quite a bit.

Then we drove around, hit a coffee place and then went to Reids - which really is probably the greatest thing in Lockport.

Ralphie got a new sweater today, and I can't wait to take pictures of him in it.

Last night we bottled the Chai beer - not sure if its going to taste too much like chai by the time i'm done. I don't know if that is a good or a bad thing.

Today we received another brew club order, and i'll be making a 'scottish wee heavy' which is an amber ale with malts, brown sugars and butterscotch schnapps. I'm sure it will be amazing. That should be ready right around time for me to take with me to the new years party in Lake George this year.


Tonight we are going to an art opening at Buffalo State.
Opening is from 7 to 10. You should check it out, It looks like it's going to be inspiring.

hobby

Been crazy busy since the party. I spent saturday sleeping and sanding down a bookshelf that lauren decided to purchase friday night RIGHT before the party.

Sunday and yesterday evenings I spent painting it. Tonight I was going to find a place for it in my already overcrowded apt, but alas... I have no idea where that would be.

so instead i'm watching obama kick the mac's ass.

A few weeks ago, I came across (e:janelle) at wegmans, around the soda and chips aisle, and, during the course of a brief chat, she helped me realize that i'm ridiculous in terms of needing to have projects to do. As in several. I'm very restless. Maybe I feel as though I need to prove my worth.

So now that halloween is over (and the mask making with it) and I just finished killing off brain cells by inhaling enamel paint with the bookshelf..... i need a new hobby. a new obsession to obsess over.

the documentary thing? screwed over by a faulty codec. fail.

i guess i'll just make more beer.

warning....

If you don't enjoy the taste of vodka - stay far away from the jello shots at the party tomorrow. (E:Lauren) and I soaked gummy worms and gummy tarantulas in vodka and encased them lovingly in vodka filled jello.

unfortunately we only went with two batches of jello - so there isn't as many as last year. But from the couple of gummy worms I ate while making the shots... damn.

And just so you all know... I may be rather crafty and brewing beer and creating jello shots... but I don't drink much. Its more so leftovers from my wild youth.

See ya'll tomorrow!

time time time time to post

This weeks schedule is scary.
Mon-8 am to 6 pm East Aurora. Inventory
Tues- 8:30 am. Springville for meeting. Otherwise my day off.
Weds 7 am to 6 pm. Springville. Inventory
Thurs 9:30 am to 6 pm.
Fri 9:30 am to 6 pm.

I'm going to be exhausted friday night. And drunk.

This brings me to my next point. I'm running out of time for my costume! I have so many intricate parts to fabricate and so little time left! Its scaring me!

Last night we carved pumpkins.Laurens design is pretty sweet. My pumpkin turned out to be way too involved to finish. So I have a pumpkin with no mouth. Now its raining/snowing/sleeting whatever on my pumpkin. I have no time to finish. NO TIME TO FINISH!

ahhhh this is why I shouldn't try and do 8 gazillion things at once!

days off are never easy.

I love it when Lauren sings bob marley in the morning.

Day off.

Clean: Lauren's bro is coming tonight for a NoFX concert. That includes vacuuming the couch where Lauren and I have using twine for an element of my mask and getting twine particles all over the couch.

Find cheap fabric store. I need like.... 4 yards of muslin for Halloween costume. Also some liquid stitch as I do not own a sewing machine.

Make costume. As in the cloth part of the costume. Do not ask me what I will be. I don't really know.

Work on mask. Maybe hope that somewhere in the next week and 1 day I will finish it. Holy crap I'm running out of time.

make cookies. John from work promised to detail my car. (fancy way of saying he is going to clean it for me). I couldn't let him just detail my car, so I'll bake him cookies. We will see if they last till Saturday when I work in lockport.

try (again) to get the codecs on my video editing software working so i can finally get this documentary working. Bastards.

Find out how to remove the whiny out of Ralph.
