Happy Halloween, boys and ghouls!

Its been another good weekend here. Didn’t do a whole lot of anything. Played some WoW on Saturday. We went out and did RFK just for shits and giggles, and to get some gear. I got the majority of it, so when my auctions sell I will share some with Crystal. I sholud have, if all of them sell another 2 or 3 gold to put aside for my mount. I also got my first aid up to 150/150, so I am on the hunt to find a first aid trainer that will get me to the next level, so I can keep skilling up. I can now make silk bandages, and all that so I am uber first aid dude for a little while.

We went to the in-laws house yesturday for supper and a movie. I went out and rented Click. It was pretty good. I kinda liked it. It kinda got a little long winded at the end but thats ok. When I was renting it, there was a 3 for $18 bin, so I picked up the Matrix Trilogy. Not to shabby for 2 good movies, and a so-so one. I was hoping to get Nacho Libre but Brian didn’t want to see that, and I think Crystal would have killed me if I got that. The video store was packed. I figured that it would be considering the weather ( its was heavy rain and 40-50mph winds, and alot of flooding in Coventry.)

After dinner and a movie, we decided to go to the local Super Wal-mart and get Crystal her fairy wings for Halloween at work. I feel bad for the overnight cashiers there. Who would want to work the 10pm-7am shift at a wal-mart? I found some pretty funky tattoo sleeves there so I bought a couple of pairs. I think I will freak my parents out when they come, just have to find some fake peircings so I can really push it over the top!

Today is the second party that Wil is hosting at his house. So we get to bring some ice cream and hamburger toppings. Its always a totally geek fest over there so this probably won’t be any different.

wish it was longer (the vacation)

10/22/2006 life in general No comments

Its been a nice week off. I helped to paint my in laws house, that took up the majority of the week so I am still alittle tired from that. Tomarrow I go back into Wal-hell. From what I’ve been told, I have a new assistant mgr. I’ve worked with him before. We were unloading together. Course that won’t factor into anything.

Its been nice to get away from the photolab, they are a very demanding group of people. I’m sure I’ll walk into shit tomarrow, and thats got me a little nervous. Course I still have another 32 hours of vacation to use before the end of November. I’ll probably end up losing it cause The manager that asked me to wait until after inventory is gone now, but we’ll see. So I could be working a week and taking another week off. I dunno.

Hopefully when I get back, I’ll have another interview for DSD recieving. I’d really like to try it. I like the hours, and it looks interesting, so we’ll see.

Maybe next year, Crystal and I will be able to take a week off together. Maybe next year we’ll be in another apartment. Lots of maybes. I have to start looking for Christmas gifts soon too.
