Re: Friday Randoms

  • My office is empty today, I wish I was at home in bed right now.
  • I couldn't sleep in this morning...I was up at 7 with no work to get ready for and a zillion things I wanted to get done...

    I slept great last night.  It wasn't difficult to get out of bed this morning.  I wish it was this easy everyday.

  • I'm an idiot. When I was paying bills last month I ran out of checks so I just ran upstairs to grab another book and kept writing. Well it didn't even dawn on me that I was using checks from my bank account that I had JUST closed a few week prior because it had gotten compromised. Long story short, I wrote all my checks to a closed account. I have everything squared away and up to date now with everyone except our cable company. I figured I would just wait until I got the next bill and pay the entire thing. Well then last night, our service got shut off! After one missed month! So I just spent 20 minutes on the phone paying the bill, setting up a day for a tech. guy to come out and reset our service (not until next Tues) and then I have to pay a month in advance.

    Man, I know that you need to pay your bills on time, but it is just super frustrating to me this morning.

  • i'm off today. Whoo hoo. My daycare provider asked if I could switch Friday for Thursday and I agreed. Plus I worked late on Tuesday, so I don't have to work during the kids naps. Yay.  I will probably spend the whole day cleaning though...boo!
  • I am leaving at noon today.  It can't come soon enough. 
  • I could watch Gilmore Girls on a loop and not get sick of it.

    Me too :)

  • I had too much fun last night, but I made it to work on time today.

    Me too. SO had some family in town for just one night and I went out with them against my better judgement. I'm mostly just tired but I will be dragging all day today. Ugh.

    I need some new work pants, and I want to go shopping, but it's that time of the month and I'm all bloaty.  Ugh.  I don't want to make the mistake of going shopping now, and have everything be too big in a week when I lose all this freaking water weight.  Sometime I hate being female.

  • It's Friday!!!!   Party!!!  I'm excited.  After today, I'll be off work until next Wednesday.  Woot!

    I am so unmotivated today.  I don't know how I'm going to make it to 3:00.

    Me too! Althought I'm getting a haircut on my lunch hour and I'm excited about that. :)

    Same here! My hours are done, but C is at daycare...but I'll be cleaning all day. Yahoo.

     

  • I'm glad that I am not the only one here today. Last night I did laundry and went to get some capris and a few shirts at Kohls which I love. Tonight I have to go grocery shopping and I will do some picking up but I don't know much about cleaning LOL. This weekend is going to be a blast.

  • Any ideas for how to kill 2.5 hours until noon?

    I already painted my nails Surprise

    I'm so excited to get out of town for the weekend and want the rest of my short day to race by!

    Perhaps cleaning out my purse is in order.

    We are slow too.  I am jealous that you are leaving at noon.  I would love to go home and sleep for half the day :)

    It's not surprising that we're slow and honestly I'd rather be slow than slammed, especially because we're down one person right now and will be down two after I leave at noon.

    We are visiting friends for the weekend and have so much super yummy food and drink planned, I just want to be there and enjoy it!

    We tried to convince my boss that today is Chinchilli day.  Kind of hard to say that you need to observe a holiday with a weekend in vegas, when you live in vegas.

  • Another random...getting job rejection letters on a Friday is LAME. I'd much rather get them on a Monday.

    No

    I hate rejection letters.

    But remember that Monday is a federal holiday so they want to send the bad news to you today LOL

    You could research these two resorts and tell me which one we should go to. 

    Dreams
    Barcelo

    Keep in mind the following:
    - I require an abundance of food options available at all times of day.  Lack of readily available food makes me crabby.
    - DH would like a place with a fair amount of daily activities (like basketball games).
    - We both want a great/relaxing pool scene.

    Disclaimer: I make no promises that we will book either of these places.  They're just at the top of the list today.  We could end up anywhere else in the western hemisphere.  But if you're bored, you could take a look at them.

    Sorry.  That sucks.  Rejection letters make me depressed. 

  • I'll live. It's just, why Friday? You know? Oh well. So Kasa, still on the planning for vacation? Some of our friends did Cabo for their honeymoon, I think they really liked it, but said they would have not done the AI package for the specific hotel they went to. They liked wandering around town and getting food out and about instead.
