Boring Couple of Days

It’s about a half hour to 10 which can only mean that Nip/Tuck will be on soon. It’s been a long day so it’ll be nice to curl up in bed with my hot chocolate and enjoy the only show I can say I’m in love with. Next to That 70′s Show of course.
I did quite a bit of cleaning today, and then I did some grocery shopping. My sister keeps bringing home junk food and I’m getting really sick of living off peanuts and bagels. So, I went out and loaded up on chicken, meat, pasta and veggies so I’ll have enough food in the house for the next couple of days to keep me sane.
I didn’t do so well at the casino this weekend. I went up with $130, and I lost it. My aunt handed me $100 for my birthday and I lost that as well. I made the last $20 stretch for about an hour and then it was time to go home. It wasn’t a TOTAL loss though. I had dinner at Big Bubba’s, which is excellent by the way. I spent quite a bit of time on the phone with the boyfriend while everyone was off doing their own thing. I was bouncing from machine to machine. I was around a few people that hit big jackpots and drooled in jealousy. Some older lady next to me won around $2,000 and then another girl behind me (on a machine I was on earlier by the way) won around $5,000 so yay for them…boo for me.
I’m going to be doing some cleaning tomorrow and on Thursday I’ll be doing some packing. I’m going to be at my aunts house for a week while she’s in Aruba. The boyfriend will be around so that’s always a good thing. After Thanksgiving I’m going on another week-long vacation, so I’m basically spending over a month out of the house at this point heh.
I’m ass deep in work, so I’m not overly concerned about the money I lost this weekend. I’ll basically have made it all back by tomorrow afternoon so there’s nothing to cry about there. I’m waiting very patiently for a client to get back to me considering he owes me around $500, hopefully that comes through.
I know it’s a few hours early but I doubt I’ll be on line long enough to do this at midnight so you’ll notice the November 2006 theme is up and running. I wanted to be as simple as possible and I think I succeeded. I’m done with all of the Ad-Brite stuff because it wasn’t really bringing in any money anyway, so there’s no point in it anymore. I have a few ideas that I’m playing with as far as template business goes. I’m sure I’ll continue to shoot those ideas around in my head until I either put them on paper or forget them completely. Either way (as usual) it works in my head and I guess that’s all that matters.
It’s about 20 minutes to 10:00 and I think I’m going to head off. I need to boil some water and straighten up quick before I sit down for an hour with some ‘me’ time for the first time today.
Later gators.
Mohegan Sun Here I Come!

It’s been a pretty busy weekend. I’m going through boyfriend withdrawal after spending over a week and a half with him, but I’ll see him soon. I got quite a bit of work done but I’m still behind on emails right now, so for those of you whom have been emailing me up the wazoo with questions and what not, please do not take offense. I’ve just gotten the agn-solutions based emails under control. I’ll slowly get through my Gmail account as the night dies down. I can’t promise anything though.
I spent quite a bit of time today downloading albums. Yay for .iso! I got myself about 12 albums (total) by 4 different bands so I guess the car ride tomorrow won’t be a total snooze fest. It’s hard rebuilding my iPod to what it once was but I guess it’ll happen at some point. I used to have around 18 gigs, and then I formatted it because of some funky error showing up and since iTunes doesn’t allow you to download the songs I had to lose everything. I tried iPod Ripper but it didn’t work the way it was supposed to. Now I’m 3GB into the 18GB I used to have. I guess that counts for something…right?
In other news, my aunt is coming with dad and I to Mohegan tomorrow so it’ll be a fun family casino day. I have some money saved up for it thanks to birthday cards and whatever was in my bank account that’s perishable funds. I should have more than enough to keep me happy. I figure if I can double my money I’m pretty good. I’m going up with $200 so if I come home with $400 I’ll consider it to be a very good day. We’re leaving around 10am and I’m making it a point to be knocked out by midnight tonight so I can wake up early enough to shower, walk the dog, and chug a pot of coffee so I can stay awake all day for the ever-so-fun slot machines. I’m not a table person so I’ll be in one of the ‘louder’ sections of the casino. We’ll see what happens.
I was going to take a shower tonight to do my hair but considering my hair is still wet from this afternoon’s shower I’ll just blow it out and then run a brush through it tomorrow. Or by the time I’m done writing up this post I’ll have said “Fuck It” and just take one tomorrow and do my usual messy pony tail thinger. Yea…thinger…is like my word of the week. The boyfriend’s word of the week was Blasphemy and he connected it to like…everything. It’s hot when he uses $2 words…yep…I said it.
So I’m sitting in the kitchen and from the top of my monitor I notice the chair in the living room is moving quite a bit. Knowing that Maureen is asleep (she goes to work at midnight) I figure “Okay…we’re haunted” until I see a fluffy tail shaking around. Bella is staring right at me through the hole on the arm of the chair and is now back to hopping up and down off the chair. Everyone loves a fluffy pest…don’t they?
In any event, I’m going to get to that email and then get myself ready for bed.
I’m Home

I’m officially home, not that I’d like to be. I enjoyed my vacation as well as my birthday. Thank You to everyone whom left birthday wishes on my comments, email and even a few e-cards, they’re sweet.
I’m a bit behind on emails but that’s my own fault for not getting online when I knew I should have. I’m in the process of taking care of them now though. I figured that since I’m waiting on a response from a client I’ll just write up a quick blog since I haven’t really blogged in a while.
Things are going pretty good, my vacation actually helped me out as far as my stress levels are concerned. I’m concentrating more now than I thought I would and that’s always a good thing. Thanks to my boyfriend’s birthday gifts I now have the hard drive enclosure that I was looking to get so I’m also in the process of formatting my old hard drive so I can now start unloading files from my laptop. This will also help my stress level because I won’t get one of those “YOU HAVE NO DAMN ROOM LEFT STOP SAVING FILES” kind of messages. I can easily unload like 30gigs worth of files and get my computer back up to where it was the day I got it. I’m noticing a lag lately and I’m not quite sure where it’s coming from. I figure if I can run programs like Adobe and what not off the secondary drive then I won’t have to worry about burning out my laptop too soon.
I took quite a bit of pictures this week on the drive down, not sure which ones I’m looking to publish as of yet but either way it was fun. I scared myself because I think in the 7 hours we were in the car I took over 400 pictures of shit that wasn’t really important but I thought was pretty cool. I’ve got pictures of 4 different states and that’s just nifty to me heh. Thank god for my memory card hah.
I spent some time in Maryland on the board walk of Ocean City this week. Arcade games are just too damn fun. I got myself a glass dolphin with my winnings and it’s cute as hell. I’ll have a picture of it eventually. It’s a heavy fucker though, I guess it’s a paper weight. I’m sure I’ll find a place for it when I’m done cleaning up my room. I figure since tomorrow is going to be a big laundry day for me I’ll be able to reorganize myself and get back into the swing of being home…not that I’m happy about it of course.
Things are going good though, all the ‘bad’ has been erased from my life and it’s basically smooth sailing right now. Annoyances have moved away from me, things with the boyfriend are better now than they’ve ever been before. Usually after a few days together I want to scream my head off (and maybe visa-versa) but this past week and a half proved that we work well together and instead of arguing we got along pretty well. I guess it’s safe to say our relationship has moved to a new level.
This coming Sunday I’m going to be in Connecticut at Mohegan Sun getting my casino itch out of my system. Dad’s bringing me up for my birthday, we’re not sure if my aunt’s coming with us yet but we’ll find out. She’s not sure if she wants to go because the following Friday (Nov. 3) she’s leaving for Aruba for a week. I’ll be at her house. I’m pretty sure Bella is going through some MAJOR withdrawal considering I’m not going to be around for about 3 weeks (total at least). Once my aunt gets back I’m basically done with all my traveling for a little while so I’m sure I’ll go back to being too comfortable in my little room while.
I’m basically ass-deep in clients right now, not that I’m complaining. I’ve just made the mistake of over booking myself so it will be interesting to see how far I’m going to get without wanting to scream my head off. I’ve written everything down (as usual) so I’ll be able to keep track of things without any major issues. It’s kind of strange though. For the last couple of months I’ve been hoping to have a huge chunk of change fall into my lap so I’ll be able to enroll in school…I wasn’t expecting it to happen this way but I’m happy about it. If I’m not working on something I’m usually going crazy. I have a problem with being under-productive. I think that’s why I spend so much time cleaning things that honestly don’t really need to be cleaned. It’s just an excuse for me to keep myself busy when there are no other means of entertainment I guess. I can’t just lay on the couch all day and do nothing…it drives me crazy.
I’m going to do some surfing around and see what’s going on. I haven’t spoken to ANYONE in the last like two weeks so I’m out of the loop.
Later gators.
TWO TWO!

I know it’s been a while since I posted but that’s based on the fact that I haven’t been around in a while. I’m currently on ‘vacation’. I’ve been working for the past week but I guess it was more of a vacation from my usual environment, which is always a good thing. I’ve been enjoying myself, it’s nice to leave the state for a while, you know?
I’m sure I’ll have some pictures to post when I get home. I have them with me now I’m just not in the mood to load Adobe and resize all the images so I’ll just take care of them later.
But yea, I guess this is my “I’m alive” entry…heh.
