so, I paid a bill that I thought I had already paid years ago, but I figured, "hey, whatever, I might not have paid it and I don't have proof" so I paid it again......and you know what? I got a check in the mail today.... I did pay it! So, now I have a spiffy check for $770 :D

and.......big news!

there is a moving van parked in front of my neighbor's house......I found out that they are moving to Texas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and, and, and......my kids are going out tonight, so I get to go do whatever I want, which means with $770 I am going SHOPPING!!!!!!!!!!

so, how was your day?

there is a moving van parked in front of my neighbor's house......

How can it be moving and parked? :D (j/k)

Not altogether terrible. I drove a coworker to the airport so that was pretty much my work day. I got a scope for my rifle in the mail that's been backordered since last August :) but I have drill this weekend so have to wait to zero it in :(

I did find out that I owe less on my mortgage (which will be paid off w/i two months) than I thought. Yay.

awesome! :D

Quiet. I had the day off today and had the house to myself, so I mostly listened to music and played video games.
How very productive. I should really get some work done at some stage during the weekend.

I helped set up my flatmate’s new PC, set up a network for my flat, and watched a couple of eps of both Twin Peaks and Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex.

Now I’m off to dungeon crawl with some mates, a good couple of deeps of Warhammer Quest.

All in all, a delightfully geeky and lazy day.

I've not done anything unusual today, but I still support the 'yay, Friday!' sentiments. :)

I went to bed at 11am this morning, very drunk, and woke up at 5pm still drunk so...yay, Friday!

I have to pay 500 euro to resit some exams. Damned Fridays.

oooh yay! enjoy :)


my day was ok. did some work and then started our office move, which wasn't much fun in the rain.

but had a curry to make up for it, and talked to my girlfriend and stuff, so now going to bed quite happy but very very tired... night night :)

it would be better if more people were still on isketch. *coughcough*

You left first :p

it would be better if more people were still on isketch. *coughcough*

I've said it before, isketch doesn't work for me. Sorry. :(

my day was interesting. i decided i'm going to live on a houseboat, and i went for a walk until i got tired which took me right across the city and i found some awesome places i never even knew existed. most days i sit at my computer procrastinating, today i took my procrastination outside and had much more fun with it :D. and i made myself a yummy dinner from scratch, which is great because i've barely eaten anything properly in weeks cuz i couldn't be bothered. been living on cereal, toast, coffee, cigars and the occaisional vitamin pill. today was the best day since before new years in fact :)

wish i had $770 for shopping though! :p

there is a moving van parked in front of my neighbor's house......I found out that they are moving to Texas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I take it that you don't like them?

Glad to hear it Smunkee. :)

As for me, a coworker had brought his kids into the office because they have a school break or something and they were loud and screamy. Ugh. Still, they are still slightly less annoying than my coworkers. :p

ANd tomorrow the boss asked me to work for six hours with him on a project for a client so that blows but at least I get overtime. Plus that overtime is more than usual since I just got a raise.

Highly needed right now - doctor bills are killing us.

I guess that says it all for many.

GREAT!!!

*still waiting for my refund check from the Feds...*

so where are the rats you threw over to their yard going now? :confused:

It's Saturday for me, but yay anwyay! :)

I made up some pancake batter an our ago & now that I've let it sit, I'm about to go & cook them. I reckon I'll make a nice pot of coffee too.

Mmmmmm, pancakes with lemon & sugar. :)

I take it that you don't like them?

I loathe them........they are unlikeable.


GREAT!!!

Enjoy!!!

did you e-file?

I don't know........:confused: I haven't found any mice in my house in at least 3 months though, I finally found out all of the places they were getting in and sealed them up.

I woke up this morning to discover that I was alive, all of my organs were intact, and I had no major neurological damage. In addition, I swiftly realised that clothing and food were within my immediate vicinity, and I was under a sheltering roof to protect me from the driving rain outside. Not to mention I have access to the knowledge of humanity at my fingertips, access to funds, and access to education (at least within the next couple of years). In addition, I have between 63 and 103 years of life left to waste.

Sometimes, one has to take note of the little things.

Also, I never understood the big attraction of going shopping. What's so special about spending money on things you likely won't use much just for the sake of spending money? (Unless you're shopping for basic necessities, such as food or Star Trek DVD sets.)

funny you mention it, we are going out to dinner tonight at my fav. restaurant, and we are buying TNG on DVD because we don't have that series yet.

the rest? I am buying some new clothes, I keep losing weight and now my clothes are frumpy.

It's a woman thing.

Today, I woke up painfully early to do some last second studying before my German midterm, only to get to class and discover that German was cancelled. Then I fucked about for a bit before going to my second class today, and finding out that that class was cancelled as well.
I already knew my third class was going to be cancelled from earlier this week, so I didn't waste time on that. A couple hours ago, I tried to go to work, but, because of a power outage, that was closed.

So now I'm sitting here and coming to the sad realization that I would be much better off had I simply gone with my initial desire this morning and not gotten out of bed today.
Goddammit.

Highly needed right now - doctor bills are killing us.Oh my God, I hadn't even thought about the bills. :/ Do you have any insurance at all or do you actually have to pay for it all completely out of your own pocket? Either way, that's insane. :/

Well we each have different insurances. She has an HMO thru her work which is craptacular, but it's something at least.

She is still working part time though which helps but that means less money coming in on top of more bills.

I'm beginning to wonder if I should call our mortgage lender and see if we can get one payment off, in hoping gthat there is some sort of emergency clause or something.

You got a spot on your floor we could crash on when we move to Ireland? :p

Thanks we'll be okay. We have family support (from her side at least) as a last resort if we really need it.

:fluffle: :fluffle: :fluffle:

Besides this thread is about buttering up Smunkee so that she buys us stuff with her wad o' cash

Well..

I made flitch..

I guess it was a good day. Nothing really to be excited or upset about.

I'm relieved to hear that. =)

And you're totally right. Smunkee should be your platonic Sugarmommy. *nods*

I wish I had space for anything let alone a couple of people :p

I'm relieved to hear that. =)

Thanks!
Yeah I agree - Smunk is the best. Did I mention how I am totally Nintendo Wiiless? :D :p

Granted, but... wait wrong thread.
Not sure if anyoen remembers the corrupt a wish thread :p

It's cold today, and windy. Too cold even for me, and I like cold weather. So I'm happily ensconced in front of my wood-burning stove, all warm and toasty with a cup of tea and a good book, watching a Magnum, P.I. rerun. Life is good.

And, Smunkee, I'm glad your neighbors are leaving. I know they've made your life difficult. May your new neighbors be good ones.

they are almost gone, they got the truck loaded and they are leaving "first thing in the morning" which means that I am going to the donut shop and showing up on their porch at 7am with breakfast to see them off........I figure the earlier I wake them up the sooner they will be gone, and if I take them breakfast they won't have any excuse not to leave by 8am. :D (see, even when I am mean I am nice.......:eek: )

oh, and the run-down of money spent

350 Star Trek TNG full series (now I have all of them except Enterprise)
200 ($100 per kid into their savings accounts)
100 to hubby
77 to the church
40-ish to me

some fun. :p

I take it that you don't like them?

I don't think she does, they are moving to Texas after all. ;) :p

And don't forget, 6 days to Fluffle Day... :fluffle:

oh, and the run-down of money spent

This friday was a happy day for me .. I've been seeking work, and today got a call back for an interview. I am happy about that! :)

totally worth it *nods*

friday was very good but the last week (from thursday untill now actually) was extremely awesome. i went to 4 parties, tonight i'm going to my 5th in 10 days, and two of those parties were amongst the best i've been to in recent days. friday (not yesterday) we went to one of the best clubs in the area. and monday i went to a gig by explosions in the sky wich was also very very cool. (i think i've spend more than 150 € on going out :-S). i also felt very good because people gave me some nice compliments about my dancing skills and other stuff, wich boosts my self confidence.
thursday i received my grades for the first semester of my first year in uni, and i passed every exam, wich means i won't have to redo any during the holliday, wich means i'll have 3 months full of lazyness :D . (except if i fail for the second semester, but meh). i thought that i was going to have to redo 4 of them, so i'm quite ecstatic.
so yeah i'm feeling quite happy at the moment, good luck with the new neighbors btw.

First off, I love you and your box of "Thank God you're getting the fuck away from me!" donuts.
it worked! I showed up at 6:40 with them, and it's now 7:24 and they are.....GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Secondly, how did you get $77 to the church? Why not $70? Where'd that $7 come from?! :p
10% from my check, I am pretty sure I already tithed on it, because I had the money before, you know when I paid the bill the first time, and when I paid it the second time, but it's really important to me not to go around being stingy.
