I decided to take Friday off last week to have myself a nice little mini-break and man was it nice! I lollygagged around the house before heading out to get my license renewed (blech), pick up some knitting needles and meet my girlfriend from college for lunch (yay!). Well, all the relaxing I did really paid off because I now have the best license picture ever. EVER. It was a super nice change.
I picked up my knitting needles and when I did, the damnedest thing happened. Two balls of yarn jumped into my bag. So did a needle sizer. It was the strangest thing ever. Luckily, it was sock yarn, so it didn?t count. And can I just say? Toe-up magic loop sock knitting is my new boyfriend.
Lunch was fantastic and we did tons of catching up and then shopping. It was absolutely fantastic.
The coolest part of the day also involved the hottest skin melting part of the day. Weird how that happens, huh? My new to me car arrived and when B got home, we went and picked it up and signed away the next 5 years of our lives for it. It was totally worth it, though. It is *extremely* fuel efficient. And that right there is reason enough to make out with it. But if that isn?t enough for you, it also has navigation and XM radio and easy to clean factory rubber mats instead of carpet. I?m swooning right now just thinking about it.
Wouldn?t you make out with this car?
Also, can I just take a moment to once again tell you how much I love my phone? I took that picture with it Saturday morning. Not bad, huh?
Also, my husband makes the best brisket and ribs in the world. The ENTIRE world. Seriously. He can smoke some meat like nobody?s business. You know how good his ribs are? I don?t like ribs, but I will eat his every time. That?s how good they are.
Best four day weekend ever. At least, in a very long time.
There was, however, one black cloud moment this weekend when we came home from visiting with family yesterday. We got home to discover that Charlie had somehow managed to pull the power cord to the Wii into his crate and chew it into 3 distinct pieces. We didn?t kill him, but it was a VERY close call. We decided that pooping out power cord for the next couple of days will probably be punishment enough. That and instilling fear at the sight of any power cord in the house. Bastard.
mini vacation, yay!
cool camera phone, yay!
new car, yay!
I am not going to yay! the brisket and ribs though (sorry, it’s against veggie rules.)
I’m afraid your vacuum is going to be jealous of your new love for the car.
Dude! I am totally makin’ out with your car like right now!
And yarn jumping into bags happens to me too! Strangest thing. Sometimes it arrives in my mailbox by magic. Maybe it’s something with the way the planets are aligned?
I don’t even know where to begin with this post, so I’ll just go with “dirty”.
“He can smoke some meat like nobody?s business” – heh heh
And what does it say about me that I laughed like an 8 year old at that sentence?
I dunno, imagining Charlie pooping out power cord had me giggling, too. LOL
Lucky! Love the new wheels – hot, very, very, hot!
Poor Wii, poor Charlie.
loved every minute of it,keep bragging!!
