TOTALLY GEEKED!

I'm up. So tired. Worked almost 14 hours yesterday. OC till Monday morning at 7am. Took Monday and Tuesday off because my PDO'S are about to max out and I'll be darned if I lose hours. We did interview a lady yesterday that we loved and she will be getting an offer. The end of the every other weekend of call bs is getting close! Have a great day all!

Morning everyone!  Dog woke me up early.  I wanted to sleep in.

Silly Sonny!

I'm up!

Good morning!

I think Wayne is going to drag me to the movies to see The Secret Life of Pets.

I hope I don't end up killing anyone.

 Pets are used to being on a schedule. Kitties want to be fed at 5 am, even if it's a day off. 

I heatd that movie is cute FWM. Enjoy!

Oh my goodness SB. Go back to bed!

It sounds like you need more rest.

I hope they hire that lady and the call ends soon.

Hang in there.

 I need to get a shower in case i get called. Then i plan to do some light housework and water the poor outside plants. Upper 90's again with no rain in the forecast.  So hot!

Just heard a cat wretching. Now i have to go vomit hunting. Yay me...

OC = On Call

Anyone else?

Not much on my schedule today. Going to get a mani/pedi and then maybe into work for a bit. My boss is working on a big project and has me "on standby" if she needs me.

We saw Secret Lives of Pets a couple weeks ago. Loved it. We were all laughing the whole time.

I was up early this morning too. I'm guessing it's just a little bit of jet lag. Usually I am not an early riser, lol.

I hope your OC ends soon SB.

Have fun at your Mani/Pedi DG! That sounds really relaxing.. going in to work after, not so much. But I guess you gotta do what you gotta do, lol.

I think we might take DD school shopping today. I think we have a lot of the needed supplies so I need to inventory- but the big trip will be for clothes, she has grown out of almost her entire wardrobe. Figured I better get a jump on it since she needs so much.

Later we are going up in the hills with friends for dinner.

---

How was your trip, NAOW?

Got any pictures for us? 

Morning!

It's a steam bath here

The steam on our windows.

Few things to do today.

Hope the weekend is uneventful, work wise, SB.

Haven't seen either of the mentioned movies but Caitlyn has. She said they were both really good.

Happy Saturday, ya'll!

Stopped at the library for a new book and discovered they are having a blood drive. I have a sticker and I'm sipping some apple juice. Nails next

 I have cookies too.

 You and DD will get along.  Although, I believe she has outgrown stickers.

Alright, next project is plant another zebra grass and prime my front railings for paint! I must sound soooo boring

I decided to have lunch first. I picked a seat in an empty part of the local diner. Right after I sit down, some guy comes in a sits in the booth behind me. It would seem he's a regular because everyone in the place is coming to talk to him. So much for my quiet lunch reading 👿

Eta: half the place is empty, and I sat over here because there are at least 10 other empty booths around me. And he sits right next to me.

 This runs me nuts and it happens in parking lots too.

I just don't get the need to sit right on top of someone. In your case, could be his regular booth. But, I still get that it's annoying.

We had about .25 inches of rain sweep through and now it's a little better out. Spent some time in the pool.

Getting ready for our trip to see dd and her family for my granddaughters 4th birthday party. My son and his family is going too. First time in years that I would have my whole family together.

 What is zebra grass? It is too hot to exist outdoors.

---

 It's an ornamental green grass/bush with horizontal yellowish stripes on the reeds.  It is beautiful in a garden with the day lilies.  After a few years, the plant can be 5" high.  I have two plants and they are both about 2" high.  Needs full sunshine and doesn't need the watering. The picture isn't mine but mine should look like that in another few years.  Also, our cold winters don't kill them.  Late fall you just cut them all the way back and the next year they grow even bigger.

 

 

Well, it looks like the movie has been put off until tomorrow.

Wayne is going to get the tickets today, for the first showing at 9:55am.

I hope the joint is empty. I don't do well in crowds.

I'm watching Food Paradise.

I've decided I need to takeep a BBQ vacation.

 I love super early movies! The crowds are usually light.

Fingers crossed.

I also want to get there early enough, that we will be in the top row, with no one behind us, to annoy me.

I hate going to the movies.

People suck.

If I have another bad experience...this will be it, for me.

Plus of a small town : unless it's opening weekend of a big movie, you're usually one of only a handful of people at the theater. I've been the only one at the movie more than once.

We saw secret life of pets the first saturday it was out, at 7:30pm. And the theater wasn't even close to full.

I know that I probably sound like the biggest bItch ever.

But, I can't take the sound of gum cracking...chewing ice....loud pop corn chewing.

It drives me up the wall.

(I blame my Grandmother, who lived with us. She never wore her dentures, except for Mass on Sunday. To have to listen to her eat, would turn the strongest of stomachs. My Dad used to say, "She didn't chew her food...she beat it to death, with her gums." It wasn't pleasant to be around. And it made me very sensitive, to loud eating. I'd rather stay home, and watch a movie in peace.)

I really hope the theater will be close to empty, tomorrow.

And that we get the top row....so I don't lose my mind. 

FWM: I'm not a movie theater person either. I feel it's too overpriced. There's not that many movies that I feel like paying $10 to see. I get the souvenir cup at the beginning of the year so I can get a drink when I go ($1.50 per refill) but I don't buy other concessions. I can't stand when someone has to sit right in front of me then recline their seat way back into my lap. Granted, that's only a problem when I'm with other people. When I go by myself, I sit in the very front. But, if I never stepped foot in the theater ever again, I wouldn't care one bit.

DH is the opposite. He loves the whole experience. He will buy the obscenely overpriced popcorn because he's duped into the whole movie experience thing. I roll my eyes each time and lean away from him during the movie because the greasy, fake butter smell nauseates me.

My sister just texted me

Sister: tell me if this is crazy, what if we did a big family vacation? Like rent a cabin for the five of us?
Me: you mean other than the fact there are six of us?
Sister: oh, right, I forgot nephew (her son)
