I have become a total slacker. I am on the computer everyday and I still dont update more. I am glad that I didn't take part in that post once a day thing in November.
Last week was ok. Nothing much happened. Thursday I went out with a former coworker from UNC. It was really good to see her. We caught up and it was good to have a conversation in person with someone other than Pete. No much else happened. I dont think anyways. Last week is kinda fuzzy.
We dog sat this weekend and that is always an adventure.
Saturday sucked. I dont know any other way to put it. The day started at 5:30 when the dog we were watching decided to get up and wake everyone else up. We ignored it for a little while and then the bed started shaking. He woke Zora up and they were playing and moving our bed. We finally got up and walked them at 6 and put him down into his crate and went back to bed. We didnt wake up again until 11. Mind you, we had a ton to do and here the day is already half over. We get going, i.e. showering, making lists and walking the dogs one last time. While trying to do this my mom calls and I am trying to talk to her and get stuff done, but she got mad. We finally get out the door and to the bank and post office when I realize that I dont have new passport pictures to mail in with my application. (I am just changing my name on it, but I need new pictures.) Fine add one more thing to the list. Next stop the library. I am almost to the door and realized I grabbed the wrong book to return. It was one I owned instead of the one I finished the night before. We finally leave our block and head toward Durham. Traffic was horrible. There were some horrible drivers on the road. Add to my mood and there was alot of swearing going on in the car. We decided to take back roads at one point cuz it was so bad and we get to the turn and the back roads are closed. So we have to backtrack and get back into the line of traffic. We get to AAA 30 minutes before they close so I can get new pictures. I run in and there was this guy who just wouldnt leave. You could hear the woman who worked there trying to get him to go cuz there is a line building and he just wouldn't go. I finally get my pictures and they are horrible. Its winter so I am pale and I was wearing a yellow sweatshirt and there was too much flash. Not to mention all the extra weight I have gained since I started working at RTI. Uggg. 10 years of looking at that picture. Next stop, Sam's club. Packed with the slowest walking people ever. We get what we need, quite cheaply too, and check out in a fast line. We were both starved at this time, but the line was really long and not worth the cheap lunch. Next stop Old Navy and Best Buy. Pete got his Gameboy replaced and I got some new clothes. I went in for a pair of jeans and came out with more. We were leaving the shopping center and traffic was horrible. People are just bad drivers. They cut you off and there was one accident that we saw. We finally get home and put stuff away and its time to walk the dogs and go to church.
Usually church is good for me. I leave feeling better and strong enough to get through the week. Not this week. The sermon was on the two most important commandments paraphrased Love thy God and Love thy neighbor. How we should have the love and patience for our neighbors as we have it for our family. This makes me feel great after swearing at people all day. Especially since that mass was the first I was going to be an Eucharistic minister. It went well. I didnt drop anything. A great feat for me. Father John finally talked to me while I was helping washing the eucharistic vessels. Almost 3 years at the parish and he knows Pete's name and not mine.
Sunday was much better. Captain let us sleep til 7 and was behaving. Zora on the other hand was sick. She must have eaten something bad or just had an upset stomach. She looked so miserable. Captain must have sensed it because he left her alone for the most part. We mostly hung around. I did get my passport mailed out and returned my library book. I had to go to PetSmart cuz Zora was out of refuse bags and we can not be out of those. I got her a Christmas present. A Santa wiggle. (We call them wiggles, they are actually those long stuffed dogs you see on the Petsmart commercials.) Pete and I took both dogs for a long walk and while I walked them around the mall, Pete went in and got 2 video games. Nintendogs for me and Metois for him. I feel like an idiot playing Nintendogs but it is still fun. You have to talk to the Gameboy and give the dogs commands.
When Captain's owner got home and took him back, we got down to cleaning. All the laundry got done and put away. I switched my winter and summer clothes and found a brown sweater I have been looking for.
TV was good last night too. Desperate: I was glad that the woman who got killed did. I was sick of her. Simpsons, American Dad and Family Guy were really good too. All in all it was a good night.
This morning was cold and I didnt want to get out of bed, so I was running a little late, but got to work on time.
Work. UGG. Today is one of those days that makes me want to quit. I havent done anything of worth. Sorted mail and a few other little things. Uggg. I dont wanna work anymore, though I know I should. Maybe it is just a bad day here. I am ready to go home, but there is still a half hour left and I just got something to do and it is causing problems. Uggg,work!
