Finally Friday Randoms

Let's try to break 10 posts today...only had 9 or so yesterday.  Haha.

Re: Finally Friday Randoms

  • Tonight is date night.  Party!!!

    We decided on dinner and a movie.  I can't remember the last time I saw a movie in a theater.  We're going to see Due Date.

  • I don't remember the last time I saw a movie out of the house either.  Honestly I don't remember the last time we even rented a new movie.  If we watch a movie it's always one we have or one that's on tv. 

    Confession:  I've never seen Avatar.

  • I'm still torn on what to do about my cell phone.  I need a new one, and I don't want another crappy phone, but I'm still unsure about a smart phone.  I did go to Verizon's website yesterday and they have a new smart phone that actually appeals to me (only based on the description and picture).  I'm going to look at it either after work or tomorrow.

    Let me know if the movie is any good. I think it looks pretty funny and I love Robert Downy jr. 

  • I finally finished my Christmas list.  I'm so ready for the holidays!  Macy's is having a sale next week and I have a $10 off coupon, so I'm going to do some shopping for Nick.  I'm really excited.

    We (H) rented Clash of the Titans the other night.  It was ok.

    I've never seen Avatar either.  It was the #1 movie in the theaters the weekend I was in the hospital having T.

  • This is going to sound kinda odd, but I'm ready for monday. SS will be back to school then and this whole week he has been pushing button on both DH & myself. Just when I think he becomes more responsible he takes 2 steps back and becomes a 5yr old instead of the 15yr old he is. He really needs to get things together because Dad and I are not paying for Driver's Ed until we see a few things change.  By the way did you know it is like $600 for driver's training now. HOLY CRAP!! It was free for me, ya know 15 years ago.

    I probably will Embarrassed I don't want a cheap teenager texting phone, especially when the cheap feeling phones are the same price as the nice phones.

    I think a nice pair of modern dress shoes because the ones he has now he's had for WAY too long and they're starting to not look so nice.  Plus they look really dated.  And there's a video game he wants.  I really hope he gets me something off my Christmas list.  I mean for my birthday he got me a book of car wash passes.  I was really disappointed.  I mean the passes were nice and he spend a good deal of money on them, but I really wanted something girly off my list.   Last year for Christmas he got me the running shoes I wanted which were on my list, and a gift card to Red Robin that was NOT on my list Hmm  Um...thanks, here let me take you out to dinner with the gift card you got me?

    The new Motorola Citrus is the only one that has caught my eye so far.  I'll have to see though.  It might suck in person.

    Training now takes 2 session $300 for each session. I just checked Jungle Driving school website and it's $395 for session 1 and $350 for session 2. Sears is a bit cheaper for $350 for both sessions.

    My H has gotten me some pretty horrible things for my birthday and Christmas.  Remember the steering wheel cover he got me last year?!  Horrible.

    I hope yours does better this year.  (And mine too...lol)  I also made a list of things I want.  I haven't done that before so hopefully it will help him.

    What sorts of things are you asking for?

    Wow.  I'm pretty sure I did mine right through my high school and it was either free or really really cheap.

    New MP3 player

    Saw it.  Not super impressed.

  • I can't believe that November is almost half over.

  • November half over, hhmm, doesn't give me much time for DH's B-day on the 30th. 

    I just had lunch at 4th ST Deli. I split a sandwich with SS.  

    I'm going to try and make rolls from scratch this afternoon.
