i just spent 5 hours at aunt elaine's visiting w/ relatives. pb didn't go. everyone asked why. it was cuz he didn't feel like it.

oh boy. i haven't gotten dressed yet today.

i foudn my prescription for bloodwork i thought i lost. i had hung it up on my bulliton board so i wouldnt lose it.

pb left tons of windows open last night and now it's FREEZING in here.

tonight was a nice anniversary. a bunch of us from work went out to eat then some of us went to a movie.

oh i should mention that the movie sucked.

the guy at the cube across from me wheeled his chair over to me and asked me about pb goign to school. i told him a little and said it's not difenite. then he wondered why. then said the wife always wins those kidns of arguments. (meaning we wouldnt go and we'd save for the wedding) i asked him who todl him and he said he heard birds chirping. then he wouldnt tell me who.

michigan 2

the 2nd night we ate with grad students. the talk was mainly about westinghouse. the talk at lunch when dave ate with different ones was mainly about Westinghouse again. i didn't really have anything good to say about westinghouse and that disturbed me. i wonder if all companies are this way. people at westinghouse seem to think so. grad students have heard from their friends who went to westinghouse that it's boring and no fun. this made me depressed the whole weekend. this compound with teh fact that i don't really like it up there and i dont know how hard it will be to find another job and i dont think the money situation will work itself out and we're trying to save for a wedding.

well i think i might have talked about this and everythign else before so just ask questions if you feel i left something out.


on thursday we looked at restaurants and menus online to see where to go and pb saw the one for carsons and said to not go after noticing nothign was that good on the menu but then when he saw the restaurant he recognized it so we went and he forgot he said no to it earlier. i even told him as we were pulling into the resturant and as we were walking in to the building. he claims to nto have heard me.

michigan

the trip to ann arbor was shorter than i thought it would be. it took 5 hours but it's surprising how much shorter 5 feels than 8. we were probably 20 minutes from my dad's cousin and an hour from my aunt but we did not visit either. overall i wasn't as happy with the area as i thought i would be. the roads were nice but getting from point A to point B wasn't as nice. also knowing where point B is is the problem. they don't have nearly enough chain restaurants. the non-chain restaurnts were mainly scary.

the first evening we walked around campus. i felt like an outsider and really old. pb wanted to go in buildings. wait no that was the 2nd day. hte first day i wouldn't even get out of the car. the third day we went to detroit. that was one scary city.


read pb's post. he actually wrote in detail and had a lot more to say than me. this is unusual. but then again i posted daily and didn't want to retell everythign

i went to a nice play tonight at city theator on the south side. Mezzulah, 1946. a girl, Mezzulah, worked at Boeing during the war then all the men come home and try to force her to quit. in the end they realize she is really good.

i never did make my michigan post. too bad i'll forget some of hte details it's been so long. but that will be my next post.

candy

i replenished my candy supply for work. i have a lot of the chewy kind of candy so i only bought hard candy. well i mean that's all i was out of. but then i also bought some mini candybars. i spent 25 bucks. some people donate to the candy fund but from now on i'm going to keep track of how much i get and just won't buy very much new. i think i might have collected 15 bucks for the candy fund. i spent 25 today and 2 weeks ago i spent 15. then i spent maybe a total of 20 the previous 8 months.

shame

it's a shame that the only person who imed me about my dpressing away message was my ex-bf. my away message was "depressed with life"

busy day update

i didn't do what i wanted to do or said i'd do. o well.

home

i'm home now. on our way home we explored cranberry. then went to pittsburgh and were mad the point was closed and ppg fountains weren't on. then we went to the waterfront then we visited my parents.

now i'm going through the mail and doing laundry.

busy day

we have to drive 5 hours to get home. we still have to pack up here so we probably won't leave until 11. but then we'll stop to eat somewhere along the way. so we'll get home around 4:30-5 i guess. then i have to do laundry. i have 4 episodes of Y&R to watch but i probably won't get to that. our house is a mess from packing and not packing certain things so i have to go through that. then i have a little bit of work for work to do. and by little bit i mean there is a lot to do and i should have at least some of it started before work tomorrow. i have to find my paper from the doctor for bloodwork (i got it in january from her). i have a feeling i won't find that. i know i didn't throw it away so i don't know where it could be. there's a lot of stuff to do that i always procrastinate doing. i have to update my money file and make a list of the spending this weekend to see how much we actually spent. i need to look at job e-mails and update my resume and make some cover letters. i also have to do some more job research. i wonder when pb finds out how much money michigan will give him each year for his research.

we'll also have to unpack. we need want to get our exercise in for the day but we probably won't. well i should get to packing up so we can leave.

i'd like to mention (i might have already mentioned this) that there were no cookies last night. that's right. i didn't get any fresh cookies during my stay at the hampton inn.

we went to a pizza place tonight that puts the sauce on top of the cheese. it was easier to scrape teh sauce off this way. the pizza was good. it was gross looking at some of the pieces that weren't mine though.
