With (e:lauren)'s parents visiting for a couple days, I don't quite know what to do with myself. Normally in themornings that I work I have things timed perfectly for getting myself up, dressed and fed. But with sleeping parents in the living room, I decided to cut my morning down by a half hour.

I got to springville a whole hour early. Went shopping for my lunch and now I'm sitting here a half hour before close. *sigh* I'm not really good at this whole timing thing.

On another note, I am looking at a box here at work that have my new kicks in them. I'm very excited. So excited that I'm going to go put them on. Yes... sneakers at work. What a rebel I am!

Its hard being a single mommy apparently. I was so busy while (e:lauren) was gone, trying to pay attention to my boys when i got home from long shifts, i had very little time for anything else!

Went to my grandparents for a couple days also - haha spent fourth of july at the races. WOW! let me tell you how interesting that was... some interestin folk up there... especially when they had the boat races... as in race cars pulling old boats around the track - the boats were, incidentally, not on trailers. It was kinda ridiculous.

OH and here's the good news.. If ANYBODY is interested or knows anybody who is interested in an apartment, my complex here at 367 elmwood has some openings. Totally gay friendly, pet friendly and wonderful people. example.... last week i said - hey my dishwasher isn't working! is that something i should call somebody to come fix it? and my response was... hey, i'll send out a brand new dishwasher by tuesday! it should be here by five. she also offered to include a free kitten, but i declined.

HEAT is included! believe it or not... the place is a bit smaller, but perfect for one.

SO if anyone needs a place, PLEASE let me know. (we also get referral credits!)

anyway, senior ralphie is off to the vets again!!

LONGEST work days ever. FOr the past four days at work everything has been insane. 11 hour work days that are so crazy that i couldn't eat anything for the entire time. The store packed to the rafters. INSANE i tell you! but the good news is that my springville store surpassed goals thus month that couldn't even have been reached in december/christmas season! heeellll yeah!

im exhausted though.

lauren is leaving me on tuesday, and i'm worried about ralphie. Hes going to be home alone all day! tues weds AND thursday for like 8 hours! poor puppy! all alone in his crate!

anyway... i guess i should go get ready for work. god i can't wait for tomorrow. SO need a day off. even if that day off is spent working ont he car with my bro.

Training yesterday Morning (my day off) on data devices on the Verizon Network. I believe that it has forced me into being interested in a data device. I think I want a blackberry. or should I say a crackberry? Sigh.... DAMMIT. I think I really do. Seriously. But I have to wait till September before I'm going to be eligible for a ten month upgrade. stttuuuupid.

But speaking of yesterday mornings training, I was complaining that I had to be up at 6 am on my day off. I dislike this morning stuff. This morning it was 630. Tomorrow? 530. Friday? 5. Sat? 7. Phew for Sat! Can't wait to sleep in man. BOOOOO!

BUt of course this is all so that i have about ten minutes of procrastination in the morning that I can attempt to read/post estrip.

or to post video of Ralphie and MAxx playing.

George Carlin died!

Holy poo!

I guess he was getting up there though....
