Ah friends…
Chad was in town today for all of ... 12 hours or something... He had a zefer reunion thing last night... we were all able to grab breakfast this AM though... me, chad, bob, lisa, bob's brother Joe, and fellow Ex-zefer jeff. It was nice to see everyone again. It was a nice group. It is nice to see old friends and hang out. Then I drove Chad to the airport and we chatted. He is a good guy. We differ on a few points, but overall, a great guy.
We ate at Flying Saucer, on California south of Division. It was really good. Way Veggie. Rebecca and I will need to go back.
I drove the jetta around all morning and to the airport and shit. It is a fun car, and I will be happy when I have it all done. I enjoy driving it. I will enjoy it more when I fix the things that are broken, but man, it is a fun little car.
The weather is super nice. I turned off the AC and opened all the windows. Cosby is thrilled. I set up all the accounts and bill pay stuff at washington mutual's site. Now I gotta go get working on the basement. I need that floor done so we feel more moved in.
It will be nice...
back at work… (obligatory weekend recap)
the weekend was nice... But this is a long post so read on. Brief recap: Scott's birthday, projector, video games, prenatal appt., baby registry, fireworks...
peanut shells are good..
So I am at work, and my boss has some people in the office from out the town... so I am dressed a bit nicer than usual. Around 11:45 or so, my boss's personal assistant comes up to me and asks me if I want to go to the cubs game today, and I assume she means to accompany my boss. I told her if he wanted me to, I would. She then tells me she has 4 tickets, not sitting with my boss, and if I or my friends can use them that would be great.
So basically, here are 4 tickets, free parking, and I would like you to leave work to make this 1:20 game. ummmmm sure?
So I hit up harper and michael on IM and we are off. Now non of use are huge baseball fans, but you can't beat the price (free) and the seats were great. So we had nachos and pretzels and smoothies and peanuts with the shells and shit as we watched the cubs lose to the Brewers. And we weren't at work. The weather was great too. Can't beat that.
Thanks Boss!
the weekend is finally over…
so we were going to go to the flooring place on saturday... but I decided that we didn't have enough time to make it there and then back before we had to get ready for the wedding... even though that was clearly not the case. Instead we slept in and I made pancakes. They turned out super super thin, so I have to get my mix ratios down, but I think it was good to learn something... although it was the easiest thing ever.
so we went to Al's wedding saturday night... and it was nice. Mostly in polish, but we met some new people (who knows if we will ever see them again) had a good time drinking and dancing. And drinking. and drinking.... unfortunately I drank too many vodka shots and really didn't feel as it grew time to go... so we made it home, went to sleep, then I awoke 4 hours later to go to the autox... it hurt... but it was a still a good time... I didn't drive, but I did help out a new person get the hang of it... I also got WAY too much sun, and it was hot, and I was hungry.
And now, the weekend is over. I am still not feeling perfect. I am sunburnt. But I get to sleep. It will be nice.
