Post by: Flame on March 30, 2009, 06:46:46 AM
And more clouds outside, this time accompanied by wind.  :banghead:

Last week of school/work before Spring break at least, though.

Taking my daughter to test for her license today.  Hope she passes the parallel parking bit!

Baseball practice tonight.

The sun is finally out after weird weekend of weather...Saturday was cloudy, rainy, then the sun came out and went up to 72!

Then the weather hit and it was 42 yesterday, extremely windy, cloudy and intermittent sprinkles that I swear some had snowflakes in it.....I was out plant/flower shopping for about 4 hours....took me 6 hours to warm up!!!!

Sun's out and supposed to be 64 today....

Recipe for getting sick! :banghead:

Now I have a bunch of stuff to plant....and I'm inside working... :rotf:

Today's been pretty tame so far.

Mrs. E was a little jealous that the pup likes to sleep on the floor next to my side of the bed. (It's her puppy.) We switched sides last night and the pup wound up on sleeping on her side.

Crisis averted.

Trust me, I wasn't keen on the idea but rather than invite disaster, I agreed to switching sides. Hell, I've slept in worse situations.

today was blah... and WILL be blah, as I have to go to work.  I got advised for the next two semesters (having to retake some courses, to improve my GPA, which is fine by me, personally)... I'm having to take out a loan to finish school.  I did find out I am eligible, so we'll see how that goes.  I might have to borrow money from family for the next semester, since the financial aid might not be available until later in the fall (after the deadlines for payment have passed :(), but Spring, I'll get the loans on schedule.   

Right now, I'm snacking on a Cadbury Egg.  I eat them as I would an Oreo... FILLING FIRST!  :lmao: :-)

Drove down to Athens (TN) Saturday for particular rose bushes...and we had to pass the Russell Stover outlet.

Heading back to the interstate....we had to visit the Russell Stover outlet.

Gave new meaning to "kid in a candy store"! They had every chocolate egg they make...boxes of them. Did you know they make a fudge brownie egg?  :drool:

They also had 3 POUND boxes of what they call "bloopers"....those that don't pass quality control....for $1.99.  :-)

My friend that was with me, is not as much of a chocolate eater as I am....she only wanted a caramel pecan bear claw with just a little bit of chocolate. While I was getting some other stuff....she got us each one....it was good....but needed more chocolate....

I bought a salad from Chick-fil-A today for lunch.  My stomach's all in knots and I ate like 5 bites of it (I put the rest in the fridge).  I'm not sure if I'm hungry now or going to throw up.  :(

The half-marathon I was thinking about running is in January. I haven't run or trained in a while though. Mostly been walking and hiking these days.

I actually miss walking to work.  I feel like a slob.  If it wasn't for the not-so-slim chance of getting shot at night, I'd park the car and go back to walking.

Bummer. :( Sorry you don't have a safe place to walk or hike.

There's a trail I've been trying to tackle over the last month and a half. Kicks my ass every time. The trail is 1.2 miles and you gain 1,200 feet in elevation. I've only made it to the top once (out of 3 tries). The one time I made it to the top, I was very close to meeting God. I thought I was going to die.

The hiking guide says this trail is "difficult to strenuous". They ain't kidding.

My day started with computer issues at work. First, no printers. Then no incomming faxes. Then a zillion other glitches. Just the time we were good and swamped (and behind) corporate help desk had to take our system down to fix the database. 15 minutes with no computers at all, seems like hours when you can't do anything.  :censored:
