I had a very productive programming day at work. No one was there - it was like a ghost town - so I actually got stuff done.
Squiddy is really into climbing in the pear tree which is loaded with pears. I was really nervous something was wrong after we had no pears last year. Maybe it really is an every oher year thing.
At this parking lot on North and Main where Medina Deli used to be for a week before it shut down, they are putting these signs on people's windows. I figured they would crack down eventually as the lot was full each day. On the other hand, I think it looks way less abandoned with cars in it.
The last tenant and we will have a completely empty duplex with 2 - 3 bedroom apartments. I am ready to do some more remodeling and this will be the final chance to have no one before a new school year starts. It is kind of exciting to start over, especially since the last girl left always pays her rent late. The bathrrom really needed some work anyhow.
After the gym I ate some grass fed steak on the grill and some fried cauliflower. Grow muscles, grow.
I actually fried it all by myself, which if you know me and frying, is a miracle.
I'm trying to write a short description of us for that photo book but it's hard to be sexy, interesting, and endearing in a brief passage:
8 years ago Terry and I met Matthew through a chance encounter with a mutual friend. He stayed over and wore our clothes because I was allergic to his cats and ferrits. The next week he moved in and the three of started a beautiful friendship that lead to love. People are always most curious about how we handle jealousy or commodities. We share everything from our house, an historic church rectory that we bought in 2006, down to our bed and even our underwear - many of which our moms bought for us. We aren't jealous of each other's affection and we keep safe from the unsafe without having to play it safe. There is always someone's shoulder to cry on and an arbitrator for every angry moment. Our pet tortoise named Bazra completes our family. While we have heard of plenty of gay threesome, lol, we never met any other serious triads - yet we would suggest it to anyone.
Hahaha... I am ALWAYS the mindless drone who NEVER realizes that it's me they are calling. It doesn't even take a crowd in my case. Go figure.
Another funny thing is the people who were at the AT&T store for normal things....one obnoxious guy was trying to buy a case for his Instinct, which isn't even an AT&T phone of course. Another was there to ask about a corporate discount on her existing line, getting all pissy because it's taking so long. It was totally disorganized too, one woman is going along the line taking information to give to the rep at the counter to expedite our orders, yet she gives it to the rep helping me after she already entered it all in making it a total waste of time. They'd call the next person and everyone would stand there looking at each other...GO UP TO THE COUNTER. THERE IS NO BODY IN FRONT OF YOU, MEANING YOU ARE NEXT. My God when there's a crowd people just turn into mindless drones!
stopped by the Sheridan AT&T store this morning...line outside, door locked, they're letting in one person at a time. Then I find out they're out of the phones and just taking orders. I say screw this and run to the Galleria. Get in line at AT&T (didn't want to go to Apple because they can't honor my company discount and I heard they can't port but don't know if that part is true or not, plus I hate the Apple store.) and same thing...they're out of iPhones but taking orders for Monday. I drag myself to the Apple store, took one look at that ridiculous line and turn right back around. What the hell is worth waiting that long, seriously...it's a phone. Went back to AT&T upstairs and ordered it for Monday.
Now my problem with it is this...it cost $15 shipping to order it. And it's being delivered to the store. So if they have enough phones which they obviously do since they can be in the store by Monday, why don't they just send them to the friggin stores?? And why am I paying because you bastards ran out? That is complete bullshit, but very ingenious on their part to get more money.
So I am painting at the apartment today and redoing a tile coutner and I needed to be able to use the net on the laptop as the iphone is redic for looking stuff up rapidly - so I switch back to the at&t tilt so that I could tether. I noticed it had cut, copy, paste, tether, flash, 3G and a gps, lol. I think i ma back to that phone at least for today. It shoudl liven up my journal a bit.
I see a chick in the line.
Oh wait, I think she's bringing nourishment to her doofus BF...
I'll settle for chuckles any day. Just have to mosey down to the vending machines.
Come to think of it, they need to sell these in vending machines instead. I think that already do that at airports.
