dinner was good tonight. dave loved it. he said it was the best thing we've made. i think because it was fresh in his mind it was the "best" but it was still good. skrat liked it too. he had 2nds and 3rds of things. we have no leftovers at all.

i need to bulk up. my sports sleeve for my ipod is about an inch too small.

pb got me this armband for my birthday

timmy always wins telling me happy birthday.

i forgot i was going to eat less to hack my weight graph and make my brithday weight seem low and then i could tell people what i weighed on my birthday.

well i forgot and actually ate 3 meals today. that never happens
2 bowls of cinnamon toast crunch for breakfast, a hamburger, a cookie, a 1 oz bag of chips, 1 oz bag of pretzels, 1 oz bag of fritos, and 1 oz bag of cheetos (these may be 3/4 oz now because companies are cheap. i forget), and 2 glasses of pop for lunch, then for dinner i had cheese fries with ketchup, a ceasar salad but w/ ranch dressing, and a bowl of potato soup all from outback. i'm also ready to eat again.

dinner

we went to outback for dinner tonight. haley bought us our dinner. i think this was because i helped her move until the wee hours of the night. but then i saw her giving about a 12.5% tip so i snuck in my wallet and got out a 5. i sneekily put it in the check thingy while leaving. now teh waitress got a 20% tip. it was good service. we usually give beeen 18% and 20 but they usually give less than 15. i'm usually not good at being sneeky.

pretzels 'n 'at

i made chocolate covered pretzels. then i made peanut butter covered pretzels. then i made peanut butter covered pretzels that are also chocolate covered on half. then i put nuts on some. then i made some with chocolate drizzled on top of the peanut butter coating. a few i covered totally with peanut butter but when i went to cover the entire thing with chocolate then the peanut butter got too melty and it didn't work so wel. so then i just called 2 people to offer them some and neither were around. i'm quite disappointed about this.

oh i'm also disappointed that the bag of pretzels was mostly broken ones. so i have a ton of broken ones covered because i ran out of whole ones. i wanted dave to go get more pretzels but he wouldn't. i actualy still have broken ones left but broken ones aren't very pretty.

my knee hurts.

i worked 8 hours today and then spent 8.5 hours helping friends move. i'm tired beyond belief.

shoes

i bought shoes saturday. i wore them sunday and slightly scuffed them. tonight i wore them and i really scuffd the toe. i really have to learn how to walk.

i should probably go to sleep early.

i need someone to host a stampin' up party so i can demonstrate and don't have to deal with hosting it at the same time. anyone want t host one or know anyone that might?!

wedding RSVP

today my parents got a wedding RSVP. they had me guess who it was from. i couldn't guess.




It was timmy.

music

pb was calling me. i didn't hear him because i was listenign to music. i almost thought i heard him calling and i took off the headphones and there was nothing. then a few seconds later he came into the room. he was shocked i was listening ot music and said he has to write this down.

so now it is written

today i went to joann fabrics and then michaels. neither had what i wanted. i had to go to pat catan's. they had what i wanted. they had 2 versions of what i wanted. time to try it out.

russ might like this story: so i own 4 cds. 3 of them timmy made for me. out of hte 3 timmy made for me 2 are scratched and songs skip on them and i just have to skip to the next song. so half my cds don't play properly.

today i realized (but i may have realized this before but forgot) that my jeans that got the hole/tear in them are in fact the newest jeans i have. they are from the gap. my other jeans are all from express. so does express make better clothes or did i like my gap jeans more and wear them more?

so i never got my form from the dmv to go get my picture taken for my new license. i have a week. i guess tomorrow i should call. ugh. i hope i don't forget.

i just made 2 christmas cards. it was fun.

i went to bed at 7pm last night. well on the couch at 7. then at 8 pb woke me up to go upstairs. he was sleeping too. i was going to stay up. he said to go to sleep for the night. so we did. i woke up a zillion times in the night htough. it was hard sleeping through the night. then i was up at 7:30 this morning and out running at 8.

my first stampin up party was good and also a wreck at the same time.

my life lately

i stay up too late. then i can't fall asleep in bed anyway. then i dont' sleep well and i wake up because my allergies are so bad. then i go to work an am extremely tired and i'm busy all day at work but things don't seem to go right and my files get corrupted and i go home an am exhausted but i have so much to do and then i want to watch tv. and then i have more to do and then it's late again. and repeat.

Tuesday!

today i thoguth ti twas thursday.

then after that i kept thinking tomorrow was thursday.

neither of which are true. yet i keep making the mistake over and over and over...

it's been over a month since i updated my weight graph.

i fell asleep in my computer chair and on the phoen today. then i got off the phone and slept in the chair and after a few minutes i realized that was stupid so i went an curled up in bed and slept. but dave kept talkign to me and telling me about when he was going ot wake me up and stuff so i didn't sleep that well then i went to sleep hardcore and he woke me up like 20 minutes later for dinner. i came and replied to e-mails first. i was such a horrible typer but i fixed most of it.

the whole in my jeans is 3-4 inches long now. my toe got caught in the hole while putting them on today and made it bigger.

wow

so 2 years ago august someone i graduated high school with died in a car accident. this morning his brother died in a fire. at some point between 2 years ago and now the other brother almost died in a car accident. he was shot through the windshield of his truck and landed in a tree. they thought he would die. this seems to be a very unlucky family.

newspaper article

allergies

i couldn't sleep in today because my allergies were so bad. i can't breathe so i can't sleep. you know i always thought i slept with my mouth open well apparenty i don't and then i attempt to breathe through my nose. well when you cant' breathe through your nose it sure sucks. i take medicine and i'm still miserable.

oh i forgot to mention. it's a wedding scrapbook. and everyone knows everyoen jacks up the prices by liek 400% for anything wedding related.

please respond with something

i've been asked to make a scrapbook for someone for money. they'd buy teh supplies but i'd pay for the pictures and then my labor. for 50 pages (25 fronts and 25 backs) how much do you think a scrapbook would be worth?

i just gave dave a haircut. i didn't finish cleaning up the hair yet but i'll get to that after i finish this card.

the hole in my jeans keps getting bigger. perhaps i should have hanged into other pants.

oh boy

so the jeans i wear every weekend possibly both day sand then if i change my clothes after work i put these one on about half the time finally wore out to the point of a hole. i've been showing people how thin the fabric was getting and how some of the threads were visibly breaking. well i just looked down and on my thigh there is asmall hole. it's almost like a slice and how the hole is. it will get bigger i guess maybe i should get new jeans soon. my jeans are from 2003 or 2004. i think these are my 2nd to newest pair.

so i changed my last name. this involves me getting new credit cards. well discovered spelled my middle name wrong on the new card. so i told them about it and they said they'd send a new card. i got the new card. middle name is still wrong.

should i just leave it alone?

took me 18 minutes. I hate Monroeville and i hate sitting at lights for more than 2 turns. i hate sitting at them more than 1. bu tmore than 2 is rediculus.

stuff

i got a letter in the mail today from day chevrolet saying i was probably due for my 18,000 mile checkup. i find this funny since i'm only at 12,500.

tonight we watched 5 episodes of studio 60 and i finally got to relax. i just have so much to do it wasn't much of a relax but it was better than nothing.

i want to know why it takes from the 10th to the 14th for a package to go from new stanton to here. it shipped across country in 2 days and then it arrived at new stanton. it makes me mad.

ack

it gets so late so fast. this isn't fair.

my opinion

i think that if you receive an e-mail and do not respond to the person who sent it about the topic that was discussed that you do not have the right to talk about the topic with other people. even if you respond, you might not have the right to talk about it with other people. but if you can't even give the courtesy of replying to the person about it, that must mean it's not a worthy topic or why else would you not respond. things like this have made me mad. i've sent e-mails about a topic to person A. then person A does not respond to the e-mail or even with an acknowledgment and saying something that doesn't involve much thought but is a reply to the e-mail. then the next day i hear from person B about said e-mail. it makes me mad. so there was enough of a reaction to the e-mail to prompt discussion but this discussion was not with me. what was said. i dont know. do i want to know?0 yes. that is the whole point of sending the original e-mail. i dont just send e-mails with a story and with questions to not get anything in response. sometimes i even say that i expect to hear the persons reactions. i dont always get that.

more distractions

http://web.mac.com/colleenmccloskey

i am so busy yet i did this

hmmm http://web.mac.com/colleenmccloskey/Site/Blog/Entries/2007/9/8_Photo_of_the_Day.html

busy

shower then doing at least 5 things from my to do list. i miss things on my to do list that take 5 minutes. these things that take hours really bug me. i never get anything done. i need to start sleeping less than 7-8 hours. i seriously don't have enough time in the day. i don't know how to make it better. while i'm at work i just think about all the stuff i have to do at home. while i'm at home i think about all the stuff i should have done at work while i was thinking about all the stuff i had to do at home. it's a vicious cycle.

then i keep doing things at home that i kind of want to do and don't get the things done that need to be done.

sam's club

based on the size of my order, my 1 hour developing is going to take 3 hours.

this might be the last of the wedding pictures to print. these are almost all pre-photoshopped. i need to get rid of red eye. i need to crop. i will get to that eventually. i guess this way i'll have good copies in teh scrapbooks and i have have a generic photo album of all of these. these will be like the proofs i guess.

pictures

i'm uploading what i think is my last batch of pictures from my wedding. well my last batch pre-edited. then i'll go through and edit, do fancy things, and blow them up and print more to make like a real album

yay

i found my camera. i found it. yay yay yay

also when i open ijournal how do i get it to not be the mood and tags from the previous post.

houses

we looked at some houses today. wexford has some nice ones.

so i was a little scared when i saw the hookers

today we tried to go to the waterfront. dave checked online and it said the parkway was open. it said only ramps were closed. well they were wrong. then they had detours labeled but apparenlty that was before and didn't account for teh parkway detour and then they quit labeling them. and so we messed up and there were no street signs. then it became the ghetto. then there was a gas station and there was a hooker at each pump. it was REALLY weird.

luckily we weren't shot and we made our way back and then went to the waterfront the back way. but then we got there and the movie sold out AS we were in line.

sigh

so in ijournal it uses awake instead of a blank mood. so i have to fill it out. also i can't figure out how to edit last entry on this thing. oh i found it.

camera

so i still can't find my camera

iJournal

I journaled this with iJournal.

i don't know how to do anything on a mac except the internet and that took some figuring.

some updates

i have a new computer. i dont know how to use it. i dont know where to start. i dont know how to install anything or use anything that it has on it. silly macs.

also i need a second mouse pad. ok i just stole dave's he's downstairs anyway.

in the same day i was told i was gettin fat and i was told i was looking skinnier. (2 different people)

we need to go grocery shopping and have food in this house.

i have so many things on my to do list. and these aren't simple tasks. they will take forever to do. grrr.


how much heat does a mac generate. it's really hot in this room.

if anyone knows anything about macs and would like to tell me anything at all even basic things that one should figure out by playing, you can go ahead and tell me. i'd like to hear it.

also i keep hitting the space bar when i don't mean it. i attempt to fix all the spaces but here and at work it is pretty annoying.

i keep forgetting to go to sleep

i can't find my camera

i just woke up from a 2 hour nap. dave and i left work early. well we left after core hours ended so we didn't take sick time. then we came right home and went to sleep after taking medicine. now i have to eat some dinner.

allergies

my allergies are so bad. when i woke up, my nose was bloody. my nose is also raw. i can't find the vaseline (sp). i can't stop sneezing or blowing my nose. it's so awful. it's not fair.

i just spent what feels like 20 minutes trying to get this huge sticker off of something i bought. then i even used goo gone. it's still sticky though.

sometimes people are rude and it bothers me. then i think about if i'm rude and nobody tells me. people should tell me if i'm rude. to set me straight.

i visited gram last night. it was fun. she liked the wedding pictures. i need to print them all and order them all and then go from there. i hate having them out of order and i also hate not having them all and some that i don't have printed are really good but if people look at a lot then they won't look again so they miss out on some good ones. maybe i'll put in an order before i go to pat catan's and giant eagle today.
