I know I promised a post tonight. I guess technically this counts, but it isn't what I had in mind. I didn't get home 'til almost 10 cuz my car went haywire this morning and I had to (slowly & gingerly) drive it down past my parents' house to the repair shop after work. Then I got my Dad's car and visited my folks & the dog briefly. Then I stopped at Wawa for sandwiches. doggiegirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15491682992206975142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5864130.post-1109742603128802632005-03-02T00:46:00.000-05:002005-03-02T00:50:03.130-05:00Busy busyI drafted a post but I haven't had a chance to finish it.

My sister and her roommate from college are there. Someone will be following me to the local car repair shop in order to drive me home after dropping off my dying car (can't seem to accelerate uphill).

I try to ignore it. I really hate it.While out shopping Sunday night though, it occurred to me that it was kinda nice to see all those people packed into the Walmart picking out something to give to someone they love. It's nice to think that so many people care about someone.

It was great to hang out with my sister tonight. For one thing, she's so much like me. It's comforting to be around that. Plus she's awesome. She made a yummy dinner, we talked and laughed, we played a goofy test-your-unusual knowledge game and it was very close, and we colored. She told me great stories about the kids at work. We commiserated about having to deal with crappy parents doggiegirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15491682992206975142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5864130.post-1107620705574903472005-02-05T11:20:00.000-05:002005-02-05T11:28:52.336-05:00Death and Birth
I'm procrastinating getting ready for a funeral. I feel thankful it's been more than 3 years since I've had one to attend. I think. Wow. Has that much time gone by?
Afterwards I'm meeting my cousin's baby.

Yay! :) :) It's the weekend. It's the weekend. (Doin' a little weekend dance.) This is my first weekend free since early December. Woo-hoo! It's mine all mine.
Got home from work about 20 minutes ago. Gonna shower.

Also awesomely entertaining: these early-in-the season episodes of American Idol. The crazy people who suck or are just insane but think that they're great are so incredible to watch.

I had to work yesterday because J decided he would rather go to California than work. My normal weekday shift begins at 11:30. Yesterday, on Saturday, I had to get up at 6:45. It started snowing when I was almost to work. It snowed A LOT.
We sold a lot of dog food in the first hour. Our store is next to Giant, which was insane.

Oh BTW, I didn't move. So I'm really broke and I owe my roommates rent money since I paid rent at the other place.

I wrote an IOU to a gas station last night. Yep. I'm pathetic. I forgot to bring my money, ID & check card to work yesterday. I borrowed $12 from Lex for lunch (spent $1 on frozen pizza) and gas.
After work I went across the street to put $11 of gas in my car. When I went to prepay, I saw huge signs, "Pump First, Then Pay." OK... So I start pumping.

Haven't posted much. Haven't been home much. Was of course very busy before the holidays. Had a really nice Christmas with the family. Then dog-sat for 10 days. Been going out more than usual.
Worked long hours yesterday. Slept in today -- yay. Had dinner tonight at Carrabbas (so good!) to celebrate my dad's birthday (Jan. 3).

Then I found it in a French site so I went to a Francais-Anglais dictionary site and found out miam miam means yum yum.
And I saw :HAP: used in an emoticon kind of way. Like :LOL: So I'm guessing it means I am happy?doggiegirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15491682992206975142noreply@blogger.com
