the dryer now works. the washer does too. the washer liked to drain onto the floor. we learned that the floor is sloped in the exact opposite corner of the drain. sucks

i've spent about the last hour playing guitar hero. i can't even believe it.

oi

i sent my mom my link to yesterday so i wouldn't have to retell her. then she complained about how she wont read my journal and i said to read it. then she sends me an e-mail correcting all my typos. she copied the post into her e-mail and changed all the words to red that she changed. if she only knew every post was like that then she wouldn't get on my case. she told me not to get mad in the e-mail.

more

also it makes me so mad that jason and haley won't ever drive and always want dave to drive. they never ever pay for gas. they dont pay for parking. i had to pay for parking last night. they even comment that they don't really care about money but they never pay enough when we split a bill. friday night at dinner they only gave us enough money for an 11% tip. i call them on this and they say that's all they give. but if he was putting it on his credit card he'd give more.

this is continuation from last night because i had to pay for the parking. so it was like one thing that made me mad after the other.

pretty much the worst day

I didn’t get any unpacking done yesterday. We spent forever trying to get our vonage phone. well mainly dave did it all. i didn't do much except help him plug and unplug things upstairs. he even called their customer support and talked for what seemed like a half hour when i was upstairs. they finally fixed it but through that ordeal happen to break our wireless router so we had to go buy a new one. he broke the router by plugging the vonage power into it. it did something to the wireless but it would still work as a router if you could plug in. but vonage doesn't work now because he moved vonage to upstairs before realizing that he broke the router.

while we were out buying the router, we also bought a 3 prong cord for the dryer instead of our 4 prong one. now i can do laundry. not that i want to but i need to. *

we had plans to go to a baseball game. there would be 5 total. dave didn'' want to drive since he felt like he was getting a cold and had be taking cold medicine and he felt that he shouldn't have to since he always does. well nobody else would so if he didn't we weren't going. he was mad. he drove. we left at 3:40 to go to fuddruckers before the game. It took us an hour and a half to get down to Fuddruckers. i was in so much hate of all the traffic and waiting 20 minutes on the bridge to even turn right and then also people going fast in the left late (the wrong lane) and then cutting over at hte last minute, that i wasn't even hungry anymore. Then off to the game. the ride to the game wasn't as bad as to fuddruckers but i still think it was worse than theride down used to be a few years ago. at the game i bought food near the end of the game that i would get to finish by the end but stupid 9th inning, we had to get the other team out in 3 fly outs so it was over so quickly and then since we were ahead we skipped the last half inning. i still had half my nachos left. it made me mad. i got up to carry them out and eat while walking and got cheese all over my shirt. they were impossible to hold w/o using my thumb which had a splint thing on it. so i held them like a waitress holds a tray. my arm was frozen in that positing. then while getting into the car i notice a note under the windshield wiper. the note said that they watched someone back into our car and leave and gave the plate number but they didn't sign it. so all four of us have to get out of the car. dave made me call the cops but after he was already leaving the garage. we had to wait for the cops. It only took them 2 hours to find us. We weren’t exactly at the spot we said we were, we moved down to the end of the block to pull over and not be in everyone’s way. But it was at least an hours wait before the original guy tried to show up. I think more like an hour and a half.

also jason deletes pictures from my camera. gravester and pb probably still remember the time they did and how mad i was. and they deleted one of mine in may of 2003 and it was only 1 picture. jason is never touching my camera again.

* update: i tried to hook up the new 3 prong and it's the wrong kind of 3 prong. who knew there were even 2 kinds. now i have to go out again. this sucks.

i just made a car appt. i described my problem and then the guy just started busting out laughing. sigh

i also made an apt for an oil change since it's been a year. the oil reading thing still says 53% but since it's been a year i shoudl do it.

the problem w/ the car is that i thought the turnsigal light was out. but then it'll work again. then the next time i drive it won't. i assume this means it's electrical. how should i have explained that to get the guy to not laugh at me.

well if i even knew how to get ot the turn signal i could change it myself but i don't. i wont ask people becuase they'll think i'm stupid. also it may not be electrical. i just think that they'll find nothing wrong and then laugh at me again.

i was so exhausted last night so i was going to go to sleep early. somehow that didn't happen. i was up til midnight. there just isn't enough time in the day to unpack and catch up on all my files that i update and rest.

there is too much to unpack and not enough room for it.

how exciting

dave and i got cookies today. the note says "from your stalker"

it's too hot. the thermostat is st to 70 and it's not running0 so apparently it's 70 downstairs. but ti's 77.5 upstairs. they said we'd get a set back thermometer but we didn't.

so tomorrow we need to call the apt people about the set back thermeter, pugliano's about getting our deposit back, and dave needs to call erie to change his insurance address. then i need to change my address on my credit cards. we need to change our address at work.

so much to do that i even got distracted in the middle of this post.

we got our new a/c today. it's huge. i haven't gone down to see the new furnace though.

yay for internet. not yay for not being able to get cable in the 2nd bedroom. not yay for not having a/c yet. not yay for not having any silverware here so i couldn't eat my cereal. we even bought the milk yesterday.

busy weekend

our new place is smaller but a lot of things are better about it. last night i wanted to walk around the nieghborhood and peer in people's windows to see how they figured out how to arrange their furniture but i got distracted unpacking and didn't get to it.

it was too hot yesterday to work so i didn't get much done at all.

i have numerous bruises on my arms and legs. moving really does a number on me.

yesterday we bought a new micrwoave. we bought the same one my parents have. it's about as big as our kitchen. it actually is too wide to fit on any of our counter space so we have to put it on the desk. i can't figure out how to organize anything in the kitchen cabinets.

we'll have internet tomorrow at our new place. i'm not sure about what the window is for the cable guy. i guess i should look into that. i have to so some work for Westinghouse tomorrow. oh and i have to do my time sheet. perhaps i'll do that now since it's due by 9am.

it's too hot to unpack at the new place. the new a/c won't arrive until Tuesday. it sucks. we're goign to be sleeping at my parents house again tonight. earlier we had the a/c low at the old place so then ti was 80 degrees. well that also sucked for packing. today was too unproductive. it needs to be cooler. i can't handle it. i may go into work on Tuesday just to be cooler and then use some vacation at another time. now the old place is down to 75 but it is also cooler outside. now it's manageable to pack.

o boy

russ will like this one too

so not only was my alarm set but pb's was set too. his goes off at 7:15. mine at 7:02.they weren't on when we got home so they must turn off eventually.

so much is packed yet so much is left. too bad i didn't totally finish a room or anything. i've started to just line things up and i'll make the trips tomorrow. if i dont get the junk cleaned off the tops of furniture, my dad will be yelling at me tomorrow.

i'm full. i hate uhaul.

originally we booked at 17 ft truck. we did it forever in advance because this weekend is crazy with people moving. then somethign got messed up and we had to switch things around and then could only get a 14 ft truck. well then yesterday we called to confirm and see if we could get truck sooner and learned the other guy messed up changing our order/time the last time (14 ft truck time) so they didn't have any trucks anymore for when we needed. so they called around and got us a truck at a different uhaul. we have to go to different uhaul to pick it up. but this time it's a 10 ft truck. this sucks.

alarm clock

russ will love this one.

my alarm has been going off this week when i haven't been home. i'm awful. my neighbors probably hate me.

i'm back from pittsburgh. it's hot.

today was a little better. the japanese restaurant wasn't as bad as i thought it would be.

today wasn't as bad. i knew i'd be hungry. they feed us too early. dave and i got a pizza after returning to our hotel. i'm still hungry. i didn't get ot eat it before it got cold becasue timmy called and he needed directions.

today our fueling the business workshop consisted of listening to lectures about boring crap that i alreayd knew about then doing team building activities. team building and customer relations activities. our last activity was an egg drop. overall it sucked. now i have 15 minutes before i have to leave to go to a silly dinner.


off topic: i'm mad about my pants. they were kind of tight when i bought them which was nice. now they are loose and no fun at all.

ugh

i hate people my age. the bus ride home from dave and busters just made me want to kill myself.

it's almost time for dave and busters

i have ot pick out my clothes for Tues-Friday and i have to pick out worth clothes adn evening (casual clothes). i started packing my clotehs at 10:30. i'm still not done. i still need another work outfit and another night outfit. plus if it's cold or hot then i'm screwed so i should have a backup outfit for each. oh and i only got this far becuase 2 different people looked at my picture site and then gave me outfits to wear. one of the outfits i had picked out for myself first so i guess i made a good choice.

new camera

i like my new camera and all but way more pictures end up blurry than did with my old camera.

1 year ago was RPI graduation

yesterday

so we left at 5:32 to get to the game at 7:05. normally it takes a half hour to get there. well half hour. hour and a half. same difference. then we had to wait in line to exchange our tickets from the previous rain out. we didn't really think to leave earlier. we thought we'd get there plent early and we only made the decision to go at 5:15. or say the final decision to go. some people (Brian) are unsure if he wants to go or not. we were stuck in so much traffic that i got out and walked the rest of the way. Brian and jen had gotten in line and they were next by the time i got thre. actually they were next for awhile. they had been letting people get in front of them. i never walked so fast over the 6th street bridge. my exercise enduced asthma was kicking in. so then we're at the ticket booth and the guy is taking 8 years to exchange the tickets. he's trying to add and we can't figure out waht he's doing. he never says a word to us. he takes forever that peoople at the booths on both sides of us come and go and come and go in the time that we're there. so finally we got the tickets just as the game was starting. Dave still hadn't parked the car. JD still wasn't there. I gave Jen and Brian their tickets and let them go in while i'd wait. about 2 minutes later dave got there. eh said "ok lets' go" not realizing that I still had JD's ticket. so then he kind of offered to wait with me too but he kept talking about what he was missing. so he went in and i waited for JD. well JD and i were on opposite sides of the park once he got there. he walked to me even though i thought our seats were by him. oops i made him walk. i did tell him where our seats were. so then we finally go in and half to walk around half the park. we were a little late. then after the first inning dave and i got up to get food. it was a battle keeping the food from blowing away. it was too windy. so i didn't actually see a single play of the game until the 3rd or 4th inning. the guy in front of us got hit with some coleslaw from dave's sandwich, a few nochoes, and then with the fry box once it was empty. poor guy.

the pirates got 6 runs in one inning. we thought for sure they'd win. well then the other team got a grand slam later to tie it up (7-7) then the following inning they got 2 runs. uh o. then we got 1 run and in the 9th it looked like we were gonna get a homerun and we all stood up but the guy on the other team caught it right at the back wall. i'm not sure waht the other team was. it was some weird name i never heard of. ok i looked i up incase anyone is wondering. here's an actual article if you don't like my summary. oh here's a nice summary. i originally didn't know what kind of key word's to search for.

JD, Jen, Brian, Dave, and I went.

then afterwards we went to Brian's under the assumption that he lived right of Carson street and we were going to walk to a bar or something. well his right off carson street is like a mile up the hill off carson street. brian's place is such a dump; i can't believe he lives there. then we get down to the bar and wait in this line for like 15 minutes and as we're getting out our IDs dave realizes he doesn't have his wallet. so this is not good. so dave and i walk back up to get his wallet. i didn't think we'd go back down but dave was willing. i was shocked at this. then finally we got to the bar. JD was already drunk. some of Brian's roommates were there. i think the bar was called something like Carson City Saloon or other. so it was weird. the music was so loud. they played all these country songs that were new so i didn't know them. everyone else there knew them and shouted the lyrics. they sold beer out of tubs so you didn't have to go all the way over to the bar. that was hard work by the way. i got a rum and coke. it cost me 3.75. Brian complains about Jason and Haley being smoopy. well he was all over Jen at the bar. I still can't get over how short they are. a few of brian's roommates were there. i only remember the name of "mikey." that guy was pretty nice. aka he actually talked to me so i could hear him. i think it was his birthday week so they were celebrating. he told me they normally call brian "B R Y A N" but tonight if you did that you can to buy a round of drinks. they were calling him my different woman's names. i'm not sure how that came about. it was done in the walk back to dave's car to get his license.

my drink was too strong for me to drink quickly. i say this because after less than a half hour dave said he was getting a headache and was going to leave w/o me so i had to finish my drink. that wasn't happening. so then i gave it to JD. i don't know if he really drank it or not. but you can't waste alcohol. then we made the trek back up the hill. on our way on carson street we saw a cop pull someone over. i'm nto sure what the guy was doing. then there were 4 cop cars down past 18th on carson and i'm not sure what was going on there. they were blocking a lane of traffic so a cop was there directing. this was at 1:30. then walking up 18th we saw a car coming down teh road. it might have been a tad fast but i'm not sure. and a cop pulled him over. so when we drove out of south side we made sure to obey all laws since we didn't even notice the other guys doing anything wrong. going back down the hill, the cop was at the car of the guy he pulled over (it was like 10 minutes prior that he actually pulled him over). they are kind of blocking the lane of traffic so we had to go into the other lane to pass them. this was at a light. just as we are doing this the cop backs away from the car and more into the road. i think he was asking to be hit. but we didn't do it. all the walking made my shins hurt.

we got home a little after 2 and went right to sleep. dave said he wouldn't cuddle with me because my hair smelled like smoke. i had such an awful nights sleep. i woke up every 5 minutes or so since 8 so at 10 i decided to just get out of bed.

(i tried to make this detailed so when i scrapbook the pictures from this day, the story is already written. too bad i didn't take out typos or anything)

my knees hurt from carrying things down the steps. i barely packed anything at all.

pb got his car back from teh sohp today. they replaced the bumper. 973 bucks i believe. it took them 4 days even though they only said 2.

i told dave i'm going to go on a strict diet w/ lots of exercise, while i was eating donuts. he kept talkign to me about it. then after a few seconds i said "strict diet. but like how i'm eating donuts now" then he laughed.

packing isn't any fun.

i keep wanting ot pack. i never know what to pack. my evenings disappear and i dont do anything. yet all evening i seem to be busy except the hour that i watch tv. moving is going to be rediculous

i seem to be misearable

i just woke up from a 2 hour nap. pb was asleep. he kept trying to read his textbook and was falling asleep. finally an hour later i joined him.

oh and

i dont' think my parents appreciated our new tv. my dad made some comment under his breath about us not being able to save money if we keep spending too much.

mother's day dinner

so my parents and brother came over for dinner today. there was some mishap with the grill and the grease drips from the previous time caught on fire. so after an hour that was taken care of . but this put the meat behind schedule. everytime my parents come over it's hectic. we can cook the same foods w/o them here and it's fine.

the roasted potatoes were done about 10 minutes before they needed to but i thought things would be crazy if i had them be done at just the right time. so then they started getting cold by the time everything else was actually done. i made the sauce for the hot saucage aroudn 2pm today and just reheated it for 5. i also steamed the green beans around that time and just put them in the fridge. then i heated them up on the stove w/ butter and salt at dinner time. it's the first time i've ever made fresh green beans. my mom's never made them either. they were good. i barely bought any and thought they'd turn out bad. of course if i bought a lot i would have found a way to mess them up. i did open a can of green beans because there wasn't a lot. but nobody ate those. i need to come up with better vegetables to make at picnics. also i only ever make roasted potatoes for guests. i should come up with something else. roasted potatoes are easy but so time consuming. i need to come up with something better. while i was prepping the green beans i thought how it wasn't worth the trouble for fresh green beans but then the taste was so nice afterwards. i guess i'll have to do that again.

oh so i only got dressed just as my parents were arriving. i didn't put on any makeup or even rebrush my hair after getting dressed.

gram's

i went to gram's after having to go in through the basement and make my way to the stairs and make my way up them in the dark. then i let everyone else in through the front door (well through the middle floor front door). i still feel spider webs on me. that was so scary. those steps are narrow. oh and going into the backdoor i pulled hte doorknob off. oops. i don't know how anyone can walk on them. then we looked at some pictures. i took some from the walls. i don't think i will get to keep them so i have to scan them in and return them. i want more. then i went up the trap door. now that was also scary and narrow. people must have been skinny back in the day. i eyed up the pictures on teh wall and wanted some. i didn't take any. then i went to a closet. the door was open. it's never opened. well there was th is box of pictures. it was a jackpot. there are so many super old ones. some from the 40s. i dont know how a lot of them are but i fi recognize them i'm going to scan them in. my grandparents were in a million wedding parties. i'm nto sure who the pheople are. then my dad knew some and everyone has weird names like Putt, Giggy (sp... w/ pronuciations like a g), scutta, snookie, and much much more. that was some weird stuff. i want to go to gram's to go over who the people are. i took the box with me becuase my dad didn't want me wasting tons of time there. we had to leave before it was dark because it's hard enough. i said "who is going down through the basement? not it" well then i went down. then leaving i made sure to not touch the doorknob. well it fell off anyway.

i went to a co-ed baby shower today. everyone asked where dave was (or big dave). next work thing i'm invited to i'm making him go. so the party actually lasted liek 3.5 hours. then a bunch of us moved to the bar. i think when i left only the people i was talking to were left from the party. i heard lots of stories.

i had such trouble trying to match this morning.

i have a baby shower to go to tomorrow. i didn't buy the present yet.

update

timmy is fat. I thought I’d update you on how fat timmy is. I didn’t recognize him in the store twice. He just keeps looking fat. Then at walmart pb and timmy were helping me look for something and then they bumped guts. Their heads were feet apart. w/ the bump then timmy bumped into me and almost knocked me over. Then I started laughing so hard because they said they bumped guts. I didn’t even know they bumped and I wondered why timmy had bumped into me.

dinner was really fun. i laughed so hard.

also i forgot to take my daily picture again today. so 2 days in a row no work clothes picture. also i forgot ot weigh myself this morning.

timmy gave me my cds. i wanta 2nd copy now so i have some at work. i knew all but about 4. i didn't get the whole way through the third cd though. they laugh that i never recognize the song until the chorus.

i went to a stmapin' up party tonight. i always want to order so much. they make it so convenient telling me what colors match. but then they make it so you have to order their colors.

my throat hurts. my back hurts. i'm just getting old.

the car

here's the pic of the car i told you about. note that the light is red. you can also read the license plate. timmy said i should turn them in to get a ticket.

this is also a reduced file size.

funny car

so today at the light to turn left into sam's club from 22 a car was in the other left turn lane. he didn't go when the light was green. we were confused. then as we got closer we realized his car was smoking. then after it turned red for awhile he went and turned left. his car was smoking the whole way up the hill. he pulled into the gabriel's brothers parking lot. pb and i turned there instead of going up to sams so i could continue to take pictures. the lady wasn't happy when she saw us driving taking their picture. the pics are still on my camera but tomorrow i'll load them and link them. i think i took about 10 pics and i dont think you can tell it's smoke in most of them.

i thought my allergies were bad with the allergy medicine but they are awful without it.

i'm a little disappointed with soem features of my camera. some i might be able to fix if i learn all the settings but some things just don't exist.

i was up from 3 til 5am this morning with a stomach ache. it sucked.

pb's x-box and games sold for a lot higher than i thought. i guessed it'd sell for 100. apparently there was some bidding war going on there at the end. it sold for 242.50 and 25 bucks shipping. there were 15 games involved. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230123493950

it is so winddy i can't believe it.

we just got home from visiting clarion. i was impressed by the room they give the RDs. she had a full size bed and a separate room with a couch and tv stand provided by the school.

i curled my hair pretty and pb doenst like it.

today is cinco de mayo. i wonder if el campecino has free margaritas like they did last year.

i'm so hungry. but then i'im also so lazy. i'm going to be so hungry in the morning. if only i didn't have to walk down the stairs and all the way into the kitchen for some food.

ugh

so i weighed myself this morning and yesterday morning. i didn't write it down though. now i can't remember what it was.

i had olive garden leftovers. yay. now i can have a good lunch tomorrow.

oi

i really should read my camera book.

oh man that was a good veronica mars

it's too hot.

i'm mad

this is the 2nd or 3rd time i remember setting up a pnc automatic payment and then noticing later it's not there. i never save the confirmation things so i have no evidence of this. actually the first time i set it up i did save it and that one didn't work. grrr

my new best friend apparently

i learned more information about the neighbor. she's 8. she turned 8 on February 25. she now lives w/ her grandparents because when she lived w/ her mom she went to a bad school and the teacher called her stupid. her mom lives in duquesne she said. she told me a story from school today. it started with "there's this kid joshua. he's kind of cute but has a weird shaped head. well he punched me right here today" points to her nose/cheek. i asked her why. she doesn't know. she was wrestling w/ n ick at the time. oh the drama of 2nd grade. her grandma made her go inside to do her homework even though we were going to go on one more walk (a walk is a loop around our plan) she rides her bike and i walk. that is more exercise than when i walk w/ pb. it's hard to keep up with someone on a bike. we were going to do our last loop while i took my camera. i got my new camera in the mail today and didn't have time to play with it because the neighbor was out waiting for me. we got home at 6:30ish. i told her i'd be home around 5:30. i think she was waiting out there for me. she was crying becuase she had to go back inside. i tried to tell her it was alright and we'd go tomorrow.

i got weird looks today from the mom walking her kids. just because she never saw me before and i'm walking the outgoing kid around. sheesh.

i forgot to mention my finding a roll of film yesterday. it's used. i hope it's not too old to develop. i bet it's from late 2002 / early 2003. i always thought i lost a roll of film.

so the camera i bought is now 12 bucks cheaper on amazon.com. i bought mine there!

what an afternoon

i was organizing in the garage again today. the neighbor girl came over and introduced one of her friends. i forget her name. then i gave them balloons i had just found. a few minutes lader the neighbor comes over and talks with me as i'm going over stuff. i learned her name and that she's in 2nd grade. then we played and sat while she colored. then we jumped rope. she said she never saw a grown up jump rope before. then we went for a walk around our plan. she was allowed to walk over ot the dumpsters since she was with a grown up. oh man it was funny. then i came in to eat. she said she'd wait for me. but i guess i took too long and it was too late for her to be out playing. her name is Summer by the way. she's the neighbor who told me i was pretty the other day. oh and she doesn't really live there. her grandparents live there. she told me who lives where. too bad i'm going ot move now that i finally learned who some people are.

i gave her crayons, colored pencils, and markers. she didn't want my stencils. i guess now adays they have cooler stencils. these ones were from when i was in 1st grade.

ears

i'd like to note that i have fat earlobes. i bought new earrings and they are hard to close in the back because of this. i remember when iw as in 1st or 2nd grade, i learned that i had fat earlobes. i had just forgotten about it.

my spare memory card and my spare battery arrived yesterday but the camera was shipped separately and i still don't have it.

ugh

i have to wait 2 months to find out if i got a raise. i better have gotten one.

my mom was jealous of pb's nintendo wii.

height

i hate people who say they are taller than they really are. i'm 5'7 (5'7 and 1/8) and i say 5'7. in the past week there have been comments from 2 different people abuot how i'm taller than them and they are 5'8. someone said i was 5'9 the other day when comparing me to a person who said he was 5'8. well i'm 5'7 and taller than them but they're 5'8. i dont think i'd dislike rounding down for your height but i hate rounding up.

so after pb measured how tall i was. i measured how tall he was. i had to get on a chair to be acccurate. he's 6'4 and 1/2. we didn't believe it. so we did it again. same height. so then he stood how he normally stands w/ his legs apart and he shrinks about 2 inches. so that's why i thought he was only 6'3 and about the same height as my dad.

garage fun

i'm going through junk in the garage. these 8-10 yr old girls were looking at me then they started looking at me weird. well about 10 minutes after htis i figured out i might be getting the weird looks because i'm wearing pb's hoodie.

so i curled my hair all nice and pretty yesterday and by the end of the workday the ends were only slightly curled. i dont know how long the curls actually lasted becuase the end of the day was the first time i looked in the mirror.

we went to the pirate game toinght. they won and it was fireworks night.

i bought some new clothes and got some good deals on them.

going out to lunch sucked today because some lady rear ended pb. he needs a replacemtn bumper cover and some tail light stuff..only work on teh tail light none of hte parts broke. but it's about 900 bucks for the estimate. the other lady's insurance will cover it though.

i'm going ot be sad if my new camera doesn't categorize things on the disk and have memory as to the order of hte pics. dave's doesn't and it makes me mad. mine does and it's awesome. if you have 4 events on the card it's easy to tell what is with what and you know it'll number hte pics in the order htey were taken. you dont have that with his. i should have looked into that.

i ordered it.i didn't wait until june. i'm a loser.

this is the camera i may buy

probably through here

i know i said yesterday that i wouldn't buy it until June.

i fell asleep before 9 last night. i woke up at 6:45.

finally

i finally talked PB into selling his XBox. he's also selling his gamecube. It took him buying a Nintendo Wii though. The Wii plays Gamecube games so he can sell that system. Then eh's selling XBox and all his XBox games. He'll make a good portion of the Wii price back though. But then he went and bought extra games. i'll let you know in 10 days or so how much difference in cost we paid to cost we sold the stuff for.

i've decided

i've decided that i'm buying a new camera in june. i keep waiting because better ones are always coming out and prices always go down. but this will be the case until i die. i'm waiting until june because i'm moving and thus saving money in June on rent. but then again i may want pictures of my moving event with my new camera. ok i'll allow myself to buy it the last week of May. granted my camera now can take great pictures. it just takes awhile for them to save. yesterday i took some pictures and the file size was 11.0 MB. now that's some good quality.

conversation

me: do you like my tree?
i hold up a picture to show pb
pb: all i have to say is when you said that all i thought about was random binary search trees


discussion about random binary search trees

then
me: well how about my tree? you never answered my question
pb: it's interesting.

i wish i knew were this picture was taken. i guess i could figure it out. the picture taken before it had street signs and the pictures after it did too. after was the cathedral of learning. so i'm guess it was in oakland since we took the direction of "Oakland" on the previous picture.

update: we were already talking about pictures before i asked him.

i was on the ball. i ordered pictures and picked them up. i ordered them today. i took the pictures today and yesterday. i picked up the pictures today. then my mom tells me about this way better way to convert to grayscale. now i'm mad.

add to the list of what is sore: my whole upper body

i also lifted weights yesterday for hte first time in forever.

Saturday

today was better than yesterday. it was also better than the day before. it's better even though my legs and fee hurt. i'm surpsied they hurt so much considering i only washed and waxed a car. i've done that before. my knee has been hurting so perhaps i bent different to compensate and that's why i hurt. my cack also hurts. it hruts worse today. it has been hurting for a few days though. don't know what i did there.

timmy's going to make me a CD. i can't wait.

today is not a good day.

ugh

it used to be all nice at lunch when pb would talk about how great of a gf i was. now at lunch he talks about how hot and awesome other people are. it's depressing.

we looked at a deauville park townhouse today.

oi

is it bad to have about 40 scrapbook pages for 4 days worth of pictures? i can count in a few seconds and give an exact count but i dont even have any pictures from night one. then there was fri-Sun and then breakfast on Monday. i don't have pictures from Thursday.

ok so it's 51 pages. there are a few pages w/o pictures. there are also pictures i didn't print. i know from sunday i only printed half.

update: it's 52 now. i had pb guess how many pages i had for the trip and he said 100. so see my 52 isn't that bad. hehe

i keep turning off my alarm instead of hitting snooze. this isn't good.

weight graph

i started putting dates on the graphs i actually update. this might be better since i actually only ever update 1 or 2 of the 5. i need to reorganize my website. i'm starting to think it sucks.

it seems like i've gained 5 lbs in the past year.

today someone tried to volunteer me for something at work. i missed what it was. then i was asked what i'm working on and i replied "a lot of stuff" someone else said "good answer" but i am working on a lot of stuff. i could have listed it. but some people say they are working on a lot of stuff but currently they are waiting for inputs or something so they are at a stand still. i have all my references/info for all that i'll be working on the next month.

our power went out 4 times tonight. the firsdt itme was a flicker. the 2nd time was right after that time that the computer was in the middle of booting up. this time lasted over a minute. then the power was on for awhile and there was another flicker and another out for a little bit.

electricity

i had an LJ post typed then the power when out. then it wnet out again. it was about how i'm not that tired. i may wright it later. i'm shutting down my computer just incase it goes out again.

i spent mroe time laying in bed trying to fall asleep than i got actual sleep.

right now

i'm bored. i brought work home to do but don't want to do it. i have tv that i could watch but then it'll be too late. i have some more Y&R i coudl watch but then i'd want to watch all that i have (2 more hours worth). i already did the sudoku on mousebreakers for the day. i'm not sure what to do just for a few monutes.

ugh

my nice new shirt needs to be ironed everytime it's washed. and also my khakis also need ironed. i bought them the same day from the same place. i feel cheated. i never have to iron pants. these stupid pants. ironing sucks. the pants are also too big. it's no fun.i'm a failure at pants buying.

what are the chances the pirate game will be rained out tonight?

my gmail has been annoying. i've been getting e-mails many hours late.

ok so

my mom has uterine cancer. she just foudn out. and mike bought her a book for her birthday about death. her b-day is next week. her surgery is the day before her b irthday. i bought her slippers for her birthday and she kept sayign how she needs to buy slippers before the hospital so tonight we broke the rules and i gave her her gift early.(i got her other stuff too) but anyway. the book about death she didnt like so much. she didnt tell me the title so i dont know what it is really about.

so the birthday donut wasn't planned but we got donuts after dinner and pb got a pittsburgh cream and that's her favorite. i'm so wound up from eating my dounuts.
