Again.....


Hello, all good now =)

reply

You sexy, sexy thing you

reply

Yes yes, I know. Ready for Clint Eastwood tonight? I sure am. We also need to talk tonight, work out the unresolved stuff from the other night, nothing bad, I think we just need to talk, ya know? How's the day going so far?

reply

Agreed and agreed to both. Things are fine here. what's with the new name?

reply

Yours is from The Beatles, mine's a song from Breaking Benjamin

reply

ahhhh....sorry the bank radio was messed up and I was kicking the dish outside.

reply

It's cool, hope you didn't break a toe. Got my schedule for next week, 9-6 mon & tues, wed off, thurs 5-2, fri 8-530, sat 8-5

reply

That's a good schedule. I like it when we get the same day off. If it's nice we can take Brandon to the park.

reply

Hell yeah! I love that idea. I was wrong about tues though, guess I have to be here at 8 but that's fine too. My boss approved the 11th as my last "technical day" so we won't have any time without insurance. I'm calling the chiropractor on mon, my hip is killing me today

reply

That's good news. Give the doctor a call. The sooner you can get in the better.

reply

2nd post: just read the lyrics to your song. Why would you want that to be your name?

reply

It's one of my favorites, shallow bay was already taken, & not many of the other titles would make sense for a name, ya know?

reply

I's gets it. Nice little ditty of a song. Sounds like it would be heavy. Funny too since it's called Sugar Coat. You'll have to play it for me later. Good idea about using song names. I didn't think of that.

reply

It's a bit heavy, but so so awesome. I was thinking of their other songs I love but I didn't think polyamorous would go over to well ;) plus the names of their cds are like phobia & saturate which wouldn't make sense either. I was looking at spineshank ones too but couldn't pick a really great one

reply

I haven't really listened to Spineshank before. Are we still going to that concert? Are you off at 5 today? Maybe earlier yes yes.

reply

I'll show them to you, they are amazing. Don't know about the concert, it will only be 2 weeks into my new job so I don't know if I can get off. Yes, off at 5, shooting for earlier

reply

No worries about the concert. We can just light the house on fire while listening to Lamb of God. Yes, the earlier the better

reply

Lmao just read your lyrics. Clever. Check out tear me down by spineshank, oh yes yes.

reply

What lyrics?

reply

The bob dylan ones you changed your name too.

reply

Oh, it's my favorite Dylan song. I thought Ticket to Ride might have a double meaning or somthing and I refuse to use the name of any song writen by Richard Starky. He's always stealing Ringo's thunder.

reply

Oh he sure is, that bastard. Bang bang

reply

That's it for my birthday we are getting you a cowboy hat, boots, and toy guns to wear and NOTHING else. Best. Damn. Present. EVER!!!!

reply

Hahaha you want to wait all the way til your bday for that? ;) I say we have a clint eastwood night & that's the formal attire.....heehee. But that means you have to be in some chaps

reply

Why would I want to be in some English guys?

reply

Busy, busy morning. How are things for you? Brandon was really cute this morning. When we pulled into my parents driveway he got a big smile and said "Pa Pa".

reply

Aww that's so cute! Busy morning here too. I've been killing warlocks & whatnot, heehee. Going to the chiropractor today, I am going to skip my lunch & go there about 5 so we should still be home around the same time

reply

That's good news about the killing of the warlocks and going to the chiropractor. On my break I'll go find the cats and fill up my gas tank. When we get home tonight I can take the gas can and fill that as well.

reply

Sounds great, thanks hon :) The lawn is driving me crazy, especially from the front, it looks so crappy, ya know? What eastwood movie is for tonight???

reply

When it comes to Clint Eastwood it's always ladies' (Emma's) choice. If it's not too dark out this evening I'll cut the grass. If so then I'll leave it for tomorrow.

reply

Lmao I love the new name!! I was thinking of switching mine back, it looked cooler. Today, tomm, or wed is just fine. What time do you work tomm?

reply

9-6 tomorrow
7-4 Thursday
7-5 Friday
I was hoping you'd like the name.

reply

That's awesome about your schedule, I have the truck to pull on thurs so I work 5-2 & then fri I am off at 5:30. Of course I love the name, you're my gorilla ;)

reply

I am and don't you forget it. I still need seven referrals and have been having no luck at all these past few days. I really need to start getting some.

reply

I'm sure you will, you're always good at it. How long of breaks are you taking this week since you'll be close to 40? Think you may be able to leave early thurs?

reply

I can try. It all depends on my referrals. I just got one, but need six more and still need two of them to be closed. I only have this week and then Monday and Tuesday of next. I'm not taking long breaks this week. Today with feeding the cats and getting gas will be the longest one.

reply

Okey dokey I understand. I hope you can get them all then. Should still be something in the fridge/freezer you can grab to bring back. Then you'll just have to feed them tomm & wed after we bomb the basement we will bring them back

reply

No worries, I've got some food here. How is work going for you? Is it raining out by you. Not raining here yet, but it looks like it might.

reply

Nope no rain. Work is going fine, flying by actually, keeping busy so that always helps. My hip is starting to act up though so I'm happy to go stretch it out today

reply

Just remember no "Happy Endings". I've got some sad news for you. Been reading about Clint Eastwood. Turns out he's suppose to be a huge dick to women. He's had many affairs and a few children out of wedlock.

reply

What? Seriously? Wtf is wrong with him? I've never been so angry at someone I've never met. John Locke would never do such a thing. And neither would Terry O'Quinn. I'm mad, seriously.

reply

2nd post: You're not ignoring me because I casted Clint Eastwood in a bad light are you?

reply

I replied back to that, should be on there, check the one right before

reply

I think as long as we support each other we'll get through this Eastwood drama together.

reply

I don't know....I swear if we find out anything about kevn costner or john locke, I'm done for.

reply

Kevin Costner is saving the ocean he doesn't have time for affairs. Just had a customer come through the drive and told me that I need to do commericals as Wild Bill Hickok for the Casinos in the West. HA!

reply

You're prob right about Kevin Costner. What a weird compliment. You seem to get a lot of those though. Sure it's always from guys? Hmmmm? ;)

reply

That's not weird. It's awesome. "Wild Bill" was an western folk hero. Yes, they're from guys. What girl would know who Bill Hickok is? You didn't even know who he is. Only two hours to go!

reply

I meant all your other compliments ;) About to get off so I am happy. Today flew be which was nice. Only 6 shifts left here now, woohoo!

reply

Good good. Go get your hip fixed to I can bang you extra hard tonight

reply

Lmao ok then. On my way there so I'll see you at home, love you

reply

Love you too

reply

Good morning sweetheart. Has the day started off on the right foot? Other then missing you all is well with me. The big question of the day though is tonight do we watch the late Cubs game or another TCM movie? Inquiring minds want to know AKA me. Tomorrow while we bug bomb the house we can take Brandon and Jefferson up to Geneva. I think it would be nice to walk around, the dog on one leash, the baby on another.

reply

Lmao yes I think that would be great! We will try to get the lawn done tonight when we get home since tomm it's going to be like 94 & way too hot for that. Then we will put the baby down at 8, turn on a (shorter) movie & when it's done, jump into the cubs game. What do you think?

reply

I think we have a date for ourself. When I get home I'll fill up the gas tank and mow the lawn. It shouldn't take too long.

reply

Nah I don't think it will take long at all, if I get home before you I will go ahead and run up there and fill it. Busiest hour ever. This lady is coming in for a bed and a dresser, and of course they up top on pallets with tons of crap on them. It was nuts with just two people trying to get it all down, the warehouse is such a mess. I just keep telling myself, only 5 more shifts after this! And even better, I'm off tomm with you, and since my last day is next tues, I will be off next week with you too, yay! You don't think we see too much of each other do you? I wonder if that's what causes us to fight, like always being around each other. I was listening to the radio and they were talking about that a few days ago. I don't think it works like that for us though, just wondering what your opinion is on it. Man, I am so tired now, so ready to go home. I get off at 5, have to go get adjusted which will be like 30 min, then I will go home & fill up the gas thingie. If you're lucky, I'll even start mowing the lawn....if I remember how. It's seriously been like years since I've had to do it, probably close to 13, can you believe it? Craziness. How are you doing?

reply

I'm doing well. I forgot my glasses at home. Been trying to read about Socialism, but it's very hard to understand. I do think we see a lot of one another, but I always thought that was what marriage is about. Do you have to go for your hip again today? How many times a week will you have to go? Don't worry about the lawn. If you can just get the gas I will do the rest.

reply

I was going to say when you take your break to feed the cats, you can grab them, but I guess that's the wrong home, duh. I do have to go again, it's 3 times a week for 8 weeks, and then it goes down to 2 times a week for 8 weeks. But the longest ones are about over, so now they will only last from 25-30 min each time.

reply

No worries. I'll make sure to feed the cats on my break. It's almost noon so hopefully the day continues to fly by.

reply

I hope so too, it's been going pretty quick here as well. Can't wait til sue gets here & I can sit down for a few minutes. You have food & everything?

reply

2nd Post: Just read that America is $13 trillion dollars in debit. That's enought to buy nine iPhones for everyone in the world.

reply

3rd post: don't know if you saw my "2nd Post", but in reply. Yes, yes I do have food. Turns out the Beatles band is playing tonight :(

reply

I know, I've been wanting to tell you that for like an hr now but haven't had time. Today blows. How did you hear about it? I called your mom & had her look it up for me.

reply

I gave my Mom a call. No worries though. Not too much longer left for you and then tomorrow we have off.

reply

True that yo. We can go up if you want, they play from 8-930

reply

I was toying with the idea. I think Brandon would do good up there, but it is kinda late for him and the poor dog has been alone most of the day. No worries. We can catch them at Beatlefest. So go google Bill Hicks. He's great.

reply

Yeah that is true about the dog. Maybe we will run up tomm. Are we going to your moms in the morning to do laundry and all that? If not, we are going to have to go by the apt or something to get detergent & do some there. Either way is cool with me.

reply

When I feed the cats I can grab the detergent and try to go in the basement tonight and try out our washer. Tomorrow we can go up there with Brandon and Jefferson. It'll be nice to get out tomorrow.

reply

I think it will be too, should be a lot of fun. Thanks for grabbing that stuff then. I just went on amazon, they had the cord I needed for my computer for a penny, and then the book (used) that the sandra locke lady wrote for $2.25, so with shipping & everything, we'll get both for 9 bucks. Not bad, eh?

reply

Not bad at all. I'm going to get ready and balance my drawer and feed the cats. I'll call you in a few.

reply

K, love you

reply

I have returned. Only about three hours left for me.

reply

Yep yep, I can't wait to get home & have some free time, it's been an exhausting day w/ moving furniture. Looking forward to spaghetti, mmmmm

reply

Indeed, I have left over pizza my Mom gave me so I've been eating that all day. Just can't wait to leave.

reply

I want pizza!! Yummy yummy ;)

reply

I'll bring some home for you then.

reply

You're such a sweetheart ;) Not too much longer now & then tomm a whole day off, woohoo!

reply

I know!!!! Only an hour and a half left and then we have the movie tonight!!!!

reply

Yep, I love our date nights :) did you remember the detergent? Tomorrow should be a lot of fun with walking around & everything

reply

Yep, it's in the back of my car. Don't forget the gas if you have the time. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow. It's suppose to be nice and it's going to be so much fun with all of us walking around. We can stop for ice cream and see all the cool sidewalk sales.

reply

Sounds wonderful, just like any day with you ;)

reply

Only a half an hour left before freedom!!!!!

reply

Why in the world would they want to trade him!??!?!?!

reply

I have no clue, I am so shocked about it. Soppel I could see just for the fact that he wasn't a major power point, but Buff?? Seriously, we would have never even won the stanley cup, or the playoffs if it wasn't for him. It's all so so so crazy.

reply

I know! Soppel and Eager didn't seem to really do that much, but Big Buff was awesome. I can't think why they would be will get to give him up. He's worth like 10 Huets. Sounds just like a Derosa trade

reply

LMFAO!! That's EXACTLY what I thought when I read it. I was like oh no not again!! They'll regret it, that's for sure.

reply

It's true though. Now we have to worry about him hitting our guys. How is work going? Things kinda suck here. Upgrades are being done on the computers so I have to run my work on a different format that takes forever. Also still need five referrals. Lame Lame Lame

reply

They got traded to the Thrashers, and I have no idea who they are, or how often we play them. Work also sucks here, the reason I had to be here at 7:30 is to pull a truck, and that has yet to show up. So everything is behind. It's really lame. That's stupid about your computer, but I am sure you will get your referrals. You always do, and if this is the one time you don't, they can't say anything because you're usually always on top of it. You should check again for wasco openings when you have time & the computer is working again.

reply

I can check that. It's just the computer part that does the deposits, check cashing, etc. Looks like there is just a part-time opening there which I'd be happy to take. There is a full time in Elgin though.

reply

Yeah, but we can't afford for you to work just part-time =( Send your resume to them anyway, maybe with you already working for the bank, something will come up, or if a full-time is opening soon, they'll know you. Know what I mean, jelly bean?

reply

I've already talked to Mary-Jo about all of it. She knows that I want to get transfered to Wasco and is willing to do whatever she can to help me if it opens up there. No worries. Been reading the Rolling Stone article. Absolutely crazy.

reply

I will have to check it out then, hadn't read the whole thing. That's cool about your boss, we can print out your resume & drop it off there then & see where it goes from there.

reply

At Wasco or Elgin? Either/or is fine with me.

reply

I figured just wasco because of thw convenience. But we can talk about it tonight or something. Only 4 more shifts here after today, woohoo!!

reply

Woohoo is right. The best part is we have next week and then we get a week's vacation!!! So this weekend we get to hold each other while we try to make it through the storms. Brandon was so funny last night. He was in such a good mood.

reply

I know! I am so excited, tues is going to drag & then I am done!! Yes, holding will be great, I love storms but I want to work outside so that's lame. The lady next door came out today to say to thank you & how good it made her feel. She had 2 more dogs there today from her daughter, I guess a tree fell last night & broke her fence, it's the one in aurora.

reply

I thought she had new dogs there. I was looking around for her to say hi, but she must have been inside. Just want to get my last five referrals and then make it through next week. Vacation is going to rock.

reply

Yes it will :) We will have tons of fun! Looks like the hawks just traded colin fraser as well.

reply

Let's say it together now "Who in the hell is Colin Fraser?"

reply

Lol true that yo. I just have to let you know what happens ;)

reply

I love that you keep me in the loop. When you get time you should read the RS article. Don't really care for the Use-to-be General.

reply

I will do so. Totally forgot today was Thursday, and since my finals were last week, I am able to check my grades today. I aced both my finals! In my Excel one, I only missed 3 points total, so yay for that!! 2 more A's for me, woohoo!

reply

That's AWESOME!!!! We should celebrate. Get ice cream or order food, or anything you want. I'm so proud of you. Your doing such a wonderful job with school. Are we picking the cats today or did you just want me to feed them and get them tomorrow?

reply

We should celebrate, but I think we can do that with a round of ding & some cuddling, yes yes?? ;) Thank you, that means a lot =) You can just go ahead and feed them, and we really will pick them up tomm lol. Do they still have food at the house?

reply

I think that would be a very fitting way to celebrate. Yep, they have food there. Can't believe it's already one. The day is going by so fast.

reply

I know, I'm so excited we have an early day today. It is very nice :) Then tomm you are off at 5 & I'm off at 530 so that's not too bad. Plus, this is the last saturday I'll now have to work past one. Yay!

reply

That is so awesome. I just keep thinking about the vacation. About to take my break. I'll call you in a few.

reply

Alright...I made it back

reply

Alright sweets. What we doing tonight? Going to pick up the cats and a few things yes?

reply

Yep yep we can do that if you would like. Then cuddles, mucho cuddles :)

reply

I like that plan a lot. Sorry for the delay. Computers were down again this morning, but are back now. Best news: 20minutes after they came back I made two referrals. Only three more to go!

reply

That's awesome, good job =) So are you picking up the baby & I will meet you out at the apt when I get off? I have some stuff in my backseat but we can put some stuff around it.

reply

Yep, I'll get the child and then when you are on your way out I'll go to the apartment. We can get the cats, litter boxes, the shower stuff and maybe the tv if room. Tomorrow we can go back for the crib and matt. Cool? Cool. Tonight we have some options. We could: Play that Silent Hill game we still have, Play Zelda, watch a movie, watching me smoke and laugh, dance naked for me. Any ideas you may have?

reply

I choose smoking, that's always fun to see ;) I think we should be able to fit it all, the tv can prob go in my front seat, we'll probably split the cats, and we'll figure out the litter boxes. We'll also turn on a movie, that should be fun. I just don't want to be at the apt too long since it'll be pretty late anyway, so we should just get in and out.

reply

I like that idea. Don't want to be there too long either. We can make it work. You know what sounds good? Outback mmmmmmmm sometime this month we may need it.

reply

Most definitely sounds good. It will be the first thing we do for my last day of work! Haha. They called to confirm my start date, and the lady on the message said the june 28th, and I was like no! So I had to call her back & she just had the days mixed up. But at least that means I definitely have the job! ;)

reply

That is very good news. Pretty exciting about the new job. I also deposit that cash you gave me yesterday.

reply

Thanks for that. I'm just happy we got something for it, and it makes more room in my closet. Now we'll just have to do the same thing with all the baby clothes. We have tons. Today should go by quickly, lots to do so I am happy about that

reply

Yeah, I'm hoping for at least one more referral. That would be good. We need to get the movie the The Stand. It's a mini series, but you might like it.

reply

We sure will then. I remember reading one of the books forever ago, but that was only 1 & I know there's a bunch to it. We'll get it though. You'll have to start making a wishlist from your tcm book.

reply

True that. It's a good idea. So mad. Forgot my Turner Classic movie crossword at home. At least it's almost 11. I probably be able to leave today at 4:30 too.

reply

Well that's good, then you can start dumping the litter in the dumpster & getting what we need to go. The cats are not going to like travel, that's for sure. Especially tito, he's a little handful. I hate having to wait for sue, she's always late coming from her other job to here, but she better be on time today, I don't want to wait around. Just want to get home to you, yes yes.

reply

Indeed. Just make a quick dash to the apartment and all should be well. Got another referral. Just need two more. Now I'm starting to feel better. Yay

reply

Good good good, I told you there was nothing to worry about. Things here are good, going by fast so that's always nice.

reply

Heyyyy you changed your name. How sweet.

reply

Yeah, but I did it like 3 days ago, just showing up now? That's weird. I have a headache, boo on that. But only 5 1/2 hours to go, so not too bad. I'm going to try to call AJ in a few, haven't talked to him in awhile. Steph called me this morning, she starts world market on monday & she is pretty excited about it.

reply

It probably did change and I didn't notice till now. No worries. Tell me how Austin is if you do get a hold of him. So you and Steph will be able to work together. That's pretty cool

reply

Austin is doing good, he is at Mama's house, and they have been doing a lot of swimming, so he is happy about that. No, Steph is going to be working at the WM in Naperville, she's going to be living closer to there.

reply

He must be having a blast then. Too bad about Steph. Trying to think of something good to watch. We watch a lot of movies.

reply

Yes we do, but is that such a bad thing? I wonder since it's friday if there will be more movies on demand we can check out

reply

Oh, I'm not complaining at all. This is me we're talking about. I'm hoping there's more movies. We'll have to see. Feel free to go to boarders to pick something up if you'd like.

reply

No no, can't afford anything like that. I'm sure we will find something at home to watch.

reply

Word. I'm going to have to wait to deposit the money until we go to the apartment. I forgot the check book. :( Can't wait to get home and eat. I'm so hungry.

reply

Why don't you take like 5 bucks & go get some fries or something? You can deposit it w/o the checkbook, you can use their slips

reply

I've been eating ramen and stuff so no worries. Just hoping we can find a good movie to watch tonight. Sometime next week I think I'm going to try to start on my model.

reply

Sounds good. I am hoping on vacation I will actually be able to sit down and read my WOT book. It's been forever since I have had the chance.

reply

I feel the same way about my Civil War book. We've just been very busy lately with moving and so on

reply

So two crazy things just happened. First Martin's wife called (he is still in jail) & started screaming at Jen that she needed a mgr, so I got on the phone & she starts freaking out on me, saying she needs all this information for insurance and whatnot because of cobra & why wasn't she informed, and he's an idiot & all this stuff. Then she's like, you better be really careful if you don't tell me anything, and I said that she would have to talk to Martin about it, and she screams well martin is in jail! Then I just said, well I'm not the one who put him there, and she just completely flipped out. It was hilarious. I told my boss & she thought it was funny, and that we are just going to tell her not to call again. The lady is nuts. She kept calling him stupid, and an idiot, and worthless, all this crap. She is so lame. He was working 2 jobs so she could sit on her ass all day. Anyway, the other thing is the cubs game is on, and it's the end of the 1st, z was pitching, and the sox are up 4-0, and z got pissed off (as usual) but I guess he got in a screaming match with d. lee in the dugout, pinella sent him home & put in gorzelanny. Crazy, eh?

reply

I was Big Z wouldn't get so angry. He's going to end up getting traded and nobody will want to work with him. That's also strange about the woman calling. Only about 45mins left for me to go.

reply

Good good good, not too much longer for me either then. I'm excited to try this chocolate stuff I am buying tonight. Should be yummy. It's lame about Z but at least D. Lee stood up to him, somebody has too.

reply

Yeah, Lee's a good guy. It's got to be hard for the team when they have to deal with things like that.

reply

Yes yes. It's so cold in here, but so hot outside. Brrrr. Only 30 for you & 1 1/2 half for me

reply

I know. I'm very excited about that. The work day is almost done. We'll be extra quick at the apartment.

reply

Yes yes we sure will. It will be interesting to see how the cats adapt to the house. I figured we could put the litter boxes on the front porch for now with the other gate up there.

reply

Sounds like a plan. On the way out I need to stop and get cat food for them.

reply

K, do we have litter for them?

reply

Good morning dear. How are you today?

reply

Good morning, how are you? You didn't say goodbye this morning :( Wanna play some when I get home? ;) heehee

reply

I didn't want to wake you up. That's all. Of course I do. What time do you get off? We can go to the apartment really quick and get some stuff.

reply

I'm off at 5 so yeah we can go ahead & do that. We'll meet at home & go from there. I have my break at 115 if you want to come out, but if not, don't worry about it.

reply

Maybe I will. Then we can switch cars and I can go out to the apartment and start packing more stuff. I could get the light, the rest of the stuff in the bathroom, drop off Austin's donation, and then tomorrow all we'd have to do is get the crib, mattress, and tv.

reply

Okey dokey, just let me know so I know what's going on & everything. Would I just meet you at home then, & we'd be free after I got off?

reply

Yeah, I just figured that way everything would be done for today and we wouldn't have to go there when you got off. Doesn't matter to me though. What would you rather do?

reply

What you suggested sounds just fine. That way we will have the evening off to just relax which will be really nice.

reply

Good good. That way we won't have to worry about the crazy weather. Now think of where you want to get food.

reply

I was thinking mcdonalds for brandon but if you want something else, that's fine too, just let me know if you have anything in mind.

reply

That's fine with me. Is everything okay?

reply

Yeah, just my boss driving me crazy. I hate working when she is here, it really sucks. Everything ok for you?

reply

Everything is fine for me. Just waiting for work to be done. Want to get to the apartment and then get out.

reply

Sounds good. Wes just called, said he is going to the house today to do some work. I hope the dog doesn't drive him crazy, do you think we should go home for my lunch break & just be there for a bit, then we'll switch cars? At least to pick up a bit & let the dog out & whatnot

reply

As soon as I get the baby I'll go home and clean

reply

I'm not worried, it doesn't look bad, I just worry about the dog throwing a fit the whole time, ya know? I will meet you at home then for my break

reply

Okay, I just wanting to make sure there wasn't a bunch of beer bottles everywhere.

reply

I hear ya, should be good. We'll get it all taken care of

reply

No worries. Once you get your break are we still switching cars? I could take the dog with me if you wanted.

reply

Yeah that would work perfectly then, so we can pick up a bit, we'll switch cars, & the dog won't annoy him while he works. It'll all turn out just fine. I'll meet you there about 115 then

reply

Very good then. Not too much longer here.

reply

Yep yep only 20 left for you. I'm hoping after my break that the day just flies by. I am excited we have tomm off as well.

reply

I know. This morning when I woke up I thought it was Sunday.

reply

Good morning sweetheart. How are you? Thanks for getting Brandon dressed, fed, etc. Last night my stomach was hurting so bad. Feeling better now though.

reply

Good morning, and you're welcome. Glad you're feeling better. Looks like you made it to work pretty early. Did you remember to bring lunch? Tonight is going to be a very early night. But I was thinking of 2 movies we could rent for tomm & thurs, that black christmas one, and a horror movie called alice, sweet alice. It's like a little girl that murders people or something, we should check it out.

reply

I got to work around 8:40. This way I can take a longer lunch to pack the car today. I'm looking forward to turning in early tonight. It'll be a nice change of pace. Where did you hear about the Alice movie from? Which Black Christmas did you want to watch? We saw the new one a few years back and it was really lame. So remember our "We've moving to Canada" talk last night.

reply

No definitely the old one. I was searching for old scary movies & that was one that caught my eye. I'm sure they're both going to be pretty lame, but hey, we've seen crappy movies before, right? I'm thinking we go to bed around 9, put the baby down about 730 again, relax for a bit & then sleep. It really will be nice, I feel like we've gotten no sleep lately

reply

We love lame movies anyway. By the time we're forty we'll have seen enough movies to write a book. No, it doesn't seem like we've gotten a lot of sleep lately. Tonight will be a good change of pace. Toss on a movie and just lay down. All we have to do is get through this week and then vacation. I can't wait.

reply

Exactly :) I can't wait either, we really need some time off. I'll probably leave closer to 630 rather than 7 tonight, just to get home about the same time as you.

reply

That'll work out nice. I'll put the crib together when I get home. That way we won't have to worry about waking the baby when we go up early.

reply

Sounds good to me. Otherwise we will put his playpen in there. I printed a 33% off coupon for borders so if you want something, let me know

reply

Can't really think of anything. If you want something though get it. If it works on magazines pick up one you like or a Civil War on, etc. If it works for coffee you should grab some of that.

reply

Nah not a big fan of any magazines. I'll see about the civil war ones though. When you get a sec, please run to the car & there should be a booklet from the chiropractor & one sheet inside should be my appt dates & times, I think I had an appt today that I can't make but I just want to know for sure before I call. I'll have to reschedule for wed night

reply

Not magazines magazines, but like Natural Geo. stuff like that. Looks like you have one for today at 4:15, one for tomorrow at 3:30 and one on the 1st at 3:30. Do you need the number?

reply

Ok I may have to ask your mom to babysit for half an hr on fri then, & I will try for the latest appt I can get for wed. That just sucks because I have an appt at ben gordon at 330 on wed as well. But oh well.

reply

Not magazines magazines, but like Natural Geo. stuff like that. Looks like you have one for today at 4:15, one for tomorrow at 3:30 and one on the 1st at 3:30. Do you need the number?

reply

No I got it, but thank you. I am just going to take my break later & go there then. They just have such weird hours. But oh well. How are you doing?

reply

I'm fine. Brought my TCM crossbook with me so I've been attacking that. Doing a little reading about the oil spill. BP says it's already spent over 2 billion dollars on it. Listening to the radio today and they said the with how much oil that is lost per day by BP that Shell dumps the same amount a year. The only reason why it doesn't make news is that they do it in Africa. This is just so upsetting. What the hell is wrong with people?

reply

That's disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. What has america come to, seriously? We have an appt in dekalb at 230 on wed for the insurance as well. If you don't want to go, or clean the apt, I can go, vice versa, or we will both go. I'll just have to leave from there to my other appt right after. Lame but oh well.

reply

It really is disgusting. Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. Doesn't matter to me if I go or not. We should have everything out of the apartment by then.

reply

Yeah we can all go, not a problem, he said it should be 30-60 minutes so we'll have both cars anyway if I need to take off for my other appt. So the people from the inv place just called. I now have to be here at 3am. Soooooo lame. I am having so much coffee tomm.

reply

That is really lame. Tonight you come home, shower, eat, and we go to bed. Things at work are begining to get me mad. Do to new government outlines customers now have to decided to "Opt-in" or out of there accounts. Pretty much means if they accept to have over draft protection. Thing is if you overdraw your account you get a thirty dollar fee. The bank wants everyone to accept because it makes a ton of money from the fees. BUT they do not want us to offer to opt them out when we ask if they want in and do not want us to mention that they get fees if they overdraw themselves. How *beep* horrible is that?

reply

That's so horrible!! How deceiving can they be? Especially in this economy. Makes me sick, seriously.

reply

That's what I thought!!! So stupid. How is everything else going for you? In about an hour I'll head to the apartment to fill up the car.

reply

Good news thought. If we need something to watch Saturday "The Tingler" is going to be on Svengoolie

reply

Going ok, just prepping the warehouse for inv which is a nightmare! Can't wait til break at 330 & go the chiro, hope that helps, my back hurts from lifting all this crap. I just keep thinking, only 3 more days after this so yay!!

reply

We're getting so close to the finish. I don't think you saw my other message. If we can't find anything to watch on Saturday "The Tingler" is going to be on Svengoolie.

reply

No I must not have. That's fine if we can't find anything. It's supposed to be 70's all week which will be really nice.

reply

It's really nice out right now. Don't worry, I got the microwave. You never know when you may need two.

reply

Hey! I had totally forgotten about that, so thanks for that. About to leave for the chiropractor now, so yay for that! Counting down the days.....and the hours.

reply

We're getting closer and closer. Found your birthday gift.

reply

Oh yeah, and what might that be?? season tickets to the cubs? ;)

reply

Can't tell you. You have to wait a year almost. You're going to love it.

reply

Damn you, I'll get it out of you somehow. Going back to work now, boo. Listening to REM the outsiders, crazy good song

reply

Indeed crazy good. Q-tip does a good job at the end

reply

Yes he sure does. Only about 2 hrs for you, and 2 1/2 for me!

reply

I know. Just need to get home, build crib, and then just take it easy. I'm still looking forward to an early night.

reply

Me too!! Don't worry about the crib tonight if you don't want, we can move his playpen. Up to you totally. It'll be nice to turn in early for once

reply

It shouldn't be a problem. I've never wanted a work week to go by so quickly.

reply

I know! It's killing both of us. It will be so nice to work around the house & do some yardwork and whatnot.

reply

whatnot AKA lots of sex?

reply

You know it my gorilla ;)

reply

Hey sweets, how is everything? Seen any Russian spies lately?

reply

Russian spies? Can't say that I have....... How are you? Soooooo tired, must have coffee

reply

I'm fine. Just wanting the day to get over though. It's so crazy about the captured Russian spies. I was also reading about the guy that was hunting Bin Laden. Takes some big balls to do something like that.

reply

What russian spies? I have no idea what you're talking about. And yes, the bin laden guy definitely had some balls to go there alone & try to do all that. Crazy crazy

reply

We were talking about them on the phone this morning? Remember I asked you if you had heard about the ten spies they caught here? Silly rabbit. Ten Russian spies have been caught in Washington D.C, New York, etc.

reply

Wow, I must have either been completely out of it, or it was when your phone was cutting out. Who knows. In any case, I am dead tired & starting to get pretty crabby. My boss is driving me crazy. Thank god today is the last day I really have to see her except for like 5 minutes tomm. And I am also happy this is my last long day, just 5 hours tomm, and 5 hours thurs & I am done!! Then we get to vacay, I cannot wait for that time off with you.

reply

I'll make sure to stay out of your way then ;)
Just two more days for you and all will be well. Can't wait for that time either.

reply

Yep yep, should be tons of fun. Just looked up the Russian spy thing. So freaking crazy. I can't believe everything that seems to be happening lately. Can't wait to get home to eat as well. We have to get the stove working sometime soon. We'll probably check that out over the weekend when we are both home, FOR A WEEK! Heehee

reply

Food sounds great. I can check out the stove tonight if you want. Lame news. We're getting audit right now

reply

That's very lame. Just as lame that I have just started auditing all the paperwork from this morning, yucky!! I'm sure it will go fine for you though

reply

Oh yeah, no worries at all. So tonight when you fall asleep I'm going to touch you. So yeah...heads up

reply

Good plan sir. Especially since it will be about 7pm ;)

reply

I am a master planner. Now it's a matter of passing the time till we get to that point.

reply

True that yo. You should be getting a break soon though to go pack up that stuff. I am hoping to leave about 130-2, take an hr nap & go to my appt at 330, then get the baby. Just talked to your mom, he's doing good, she's just about to put him down for a nap.

reply

Yeah, I'll probably go to the apartment around one. Toss in the bikes and what not. I'll be giving my Mom a call in a few here. Just waiting for the auditors to leave.

reply

Cool cool sounds good. Cannot wait to get home. We shall have fun ;) heehee

reply

Alright. They finally left. All went well for the most part. Going to call my Mom and try to see if I can coax her into making mac and cheese.

reply

Yes!!! I LOVE her mac & cheese

reply

I guess my last reply didn't go through, but yes yes yes on mac & cheese!!!!

reply

It did. Sorry been very busy. Bad news: no mac and cheese. She is grilling some veggie burgers and cheese for us though.

reply

Alright, just made it back

reply

How did it go? So much for leaving early, just now got out. Going to go home, feed the dog, take a shower & go to my appt & then get the baby.

reply

It went fine. Got everything, but my Grandpa's chair. I'll get that tomorrow and vaccum.

reply

Sounds good, shouldn't be too much of a problem at all, we'll get it all cleaned up and whatnot. Only 3 more hours til you come home, I can't wait

reply

No worries at all. So Kathy just came here. Lame lame. Yes, less then three hours to go

reply

That is lame. On my way to my appt now, hopefully it will be a good one. We have to think of a good movie for tonight.

reply

Am I getting the baby? Either way I can stop by my parents house to look again for Bye Bye Birdie.

reply

No I'm going to pick him up right after my appt. If I remember, I will try to look for it when I get there.

reply

The sticker would either be for the classics or the sunny smile. Word word. If not just close your eyes and grab like three.

reply

Lol ok will do, headed over there now so we will see what we get. My appt went really good, my neck feels so much better right now which is really nice.

reply

Good. We want your neck and body to start getting better. Two little girls drew a rainbow for me and sent it through the tube because I gave them suckers. Thought it was really sweet.

reply

That is very sweet. And by little you better not mean like 18. Got the movie, took me forever to find, but I did it.

reply

They were probably five. Why did you switch your name back?

reply

I didn't, I actually just noticed that. I think it's because I posted on your parents computer the last time & I was still logged on there for next week. I'm going to change it when I get home, can't do it on my phone.

reply

No worries. One hour and fifthteen minutes.

reply

48 minutes now, and counting down. I'll be very happy to see you. Brandon kept saying daddy the whole way home & pointing out the window. I think he was trying to tell me I was driving your car. =)

reply

Sorry, been dealing with a lot of bank work. That is so great about Brandon. He's turning into such a little man. I love hearing him sing in the car. I want to make a CD with kid songs for him. Like old Mary Poppins Willy Wonka stuff.

reply

It's cool, been busy here too. When you get home, can you please bring in the zune? Should be on the side of the seat I think.

reply

Hello hello hello

reply

Hey there, how are you? Things have been so crazy. On top of this stupid report, the truck that was supposed tp be here at 5am just came 30 min ago. So glad to be done. I will be out of here in half an hr, woohoo!!

reply

Lame, but yes at least you'll be out soon. I just want to get through today and tomorrow. Hey, it's your last day!!! We'll have to celebrate tonight with so veggie burgars.

reply

Lol sounds great to me! You should see the gift my boss got me, it's so cool. It's incense & a dvd/cd combo on teachings from Buddha.

reply

How nice.

reply

I fought my way downstairs with a bottle of spider killer and a broom, about to go try to throw a load of laundry in. So scary, especially because the one light wasn't plugged in & I had to find it in the dark. Yuck. I didn't drop off the car seat today since we hadn't talked to your mom, but I called her & she said she was totally fine with it. So I will go in there Saturday when Jill works & just drop it off to her. Ok, wish me luck with the laundry!

reply

Good luck with the laundry. Were my parents and Brandon at the zoo yet? Was he having fun? What are we doing tonight. I'm so filled with questions.

reply

Alright, well the washing machine filled up....and now won't do anything. So there's just a bunch of towels sitting in water. Maybe you could take a look at it when you get home, I'm not sure what to do. In any case, they were not at the zoo yet, he was napping, and they were going as soon as your dad got home. They are probably gone by now. I don't know what's on the plan for tonight, but I did buy some mimosa to celebrate me not working at WM anymore =) Trina texted me today, said she heard about my new job & wanted to congratulate me. I'm guessing your mom must have said something about it at one point or another.

reply

I'm sorry to hear that she texted you. That sucks. Hopefully this won't become an ongoing issue. I can take a look at the washer when I get home. Sounds like you've got some spiders jammed up in it. Good idea with the mimosa. We can celebrate like that. Just need to find something worth watching though. I wonder where we could find those two horror movies you wanted. I'll try to call my Mom in a little bit here.

reply

Yeah, I hope we can just get everything taken care of, and not have to worry about fixing every little problem that we shouldn't have. I'll try to find the movies for tonight.

reply

We will. It's only the washer. No worries. Go tanning and get some rest.

reply

I am now hearing noise from the basement, so who knows, maybe it's actually working now & was just soaking before? I'll go check it out in a few. Trying to find cool dvd rental places in st charles area.

reply

Why do I feel like I'm going to come home to our new in ground/in house swiming pool in the basement or that the spiders will declare war on us for this.

reply

Yes yes they probably will. Speaking of which, Fingerhut has a promotion for free shipping............and a really awesome, small vacuum that's rated 100% by everyone with pets..........just saying ya know ;) It'd be $16 a month

reply

That's fine with me. It'll cost you two blowjobs a week starting tonight though.

reply

Lmao, okay I guess that sounds like a fair trade to me ;) I think the cubs game starts pretty soon here.

reply

Yep, it starts in twenty minutes. Find any good video stores? What about Vulcan ears? We could get some and then make a Vulcan porno.

reply

No, not so far, everything seems to suck as far as DVD's go. So the neighbor is out cutting our grass. I feel so weird about it. We should get her something the next time we go out.

reply

I told her we would. She didn't want money or anything though. We'll invite her over tonight to play *beep* the dealer.

reply

You are such a nut. Going down to check on the towels in the washer. If you don't hear back from me, the spiders got the best of me. How is everything going? Can't wait til you're home. Can't wait til Saturday.

reply

I am so bored. I've mentally checked out at work. Just going through the motions. We've got to find something good to watch tonight. THINK MCFLY THINK!!!!

reply

I am also very bored. Just trying to look for movies for us. There's not even any cool little dvd shops around to go to, which really sucks. I wish Deep Discounts was still around, we would never have to have this conversation. =(

reply

I know so lame. I keep trying to rack my brain for something. I wonder if Best Buy would have any good doc. Just a little more then three hours left here.

reply

I don't know, we can go there tonight if you would like. And stop for ice cream. Yummy ;)

reply

If you want too. I really don't care. I just want to find something good to watch. I could just yell. I'm so bored. Tomorrow is going to be even worse. WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO!!!!!!

reply

I don't know hon, wish it was easier. I can stop by best buy after the chiro & before I pick up the baby & see if there is anything interesting there.

reply

That sounds good. Everything is going to be fine. I'm not in a bad mood or anything. I'm just really excited about having a week off together. I feel like a kid right before the end of school. So want to send me to a survival school where I'd learn to live off the land. Then we can build a log cabin and live in the woods. Yes? Yes?? Yes?!?!?

reply

We can do that anyway, all we have to do is talk to our insurance guy ;) I am really excited to, can't wait for you to be done & us to start our vaca

reply

two and a half hours left!!!! Don't you have your appointment?

reply

Yep yep, went well today, on my way to best buy now. Cubs tied 2-2 in the 9th. We got our camera today!

reply

Good news about the camera. We are going to get a lot of use out of it. Go Cubs Go

reply

Ok got a sci fi classics collections, something for you, and a vacuum. :)

reply

How exciting. Is it a poney? Less then two hours to go. I love you sweetheart.

reply

No nothing to great, but I really hope you like it :) love you too! cubs lost, again. Grrrr

reply

I sure I will. Thanks sweets. Did you get Brandon? Did he have good time today?

reply

I did, and he had tons of fun, you can tell by the amount of dirt on him ;) versteeg & ladd just got traded from the hawks.

reply

What the hell are they doing to the team!?!?!?

reply

Trading all the hawks to the thrashers... I think it's 5 of our guys they have now.

reply

I just don't understand why you would break up a winning team.

reply

Me either. I think the only ones that are safe are kane & toews. Crazy crazy

reply

Crazy Crazy Only 30mins. left

reply

Alright, I just need to get through today and the bulk of the time left will be over.

reply

Yes yes, your last long day is finally here. Can't wait! Do you think you'll still be able to get out at 4??

reply

Probably 4:15 or 4:30. If we are really slow I think I could swing 4 so keep your fingers crossed. How is everything this morning. Brandon seemed like he was in a good mood.

reply

Things are going good here, just trying to get moving. It's a lazy kind of day. Brandon is doing good, just finished breakfast & we are watching elmo, so he is happy. He's been pretty smiley all morning so hopefully that keeps up throughout the day. Everything good for you?

reply

You should just take it easy all day. You haven't had one of those for a long time. Things are okay here. Just want to get the day moving. Happy not having to close.

reply

I am so happy you don't have to close. Then we just have to make it 5 hours tomm, and we are on vacation, woohoo!! Can you please remind me of the cds you wanted me to see if I could download for you?

reply

The Johnny Cash albums are called "Bitter Tears" and "American V: A Hundred Highways" Thanks honey

reply

Not a problem my dear. So we have to think about what we are going to do on vaca, it should be fun fixing up the house, going to the park with Brandon, maybe back to that free zoo, etc. It'll be a good time.

reply

I say we do a lot of walking around the Fox river area. Ice Cream, Parks, we should get him and Dylan together to play. I'm happy we got the camera. We can get lots of pictures.

reply

Deal, it should be great =) I'm sure we will make it a lot of fun with the boys. We will probably all be over at your parents a bunch I'm sure, especially if your dad is off. He is going to love seeing Brandon so often

reply

Yeah, we'll probably be over there some. We can get out the kiddie pool. Day time together with the three of us and then the nights belong to us.

reply

Exactly =) It will be soooo much fun. We'll have some drinks, watch movies, play games, read, whatever we want to do. I put Jefferson outside for about 20 minutes today, he loves being out there, but not for too long by himself. He's such a cutie. When Brandon has a nap & is all rested, I want to get some pictures of the two of them.

reply

That's a good idea. We don't have any pictures of Jefferson yet. He is a good dog and really does love us.

reply

He sure does. He's sleeping on the couch right now & snoring away. I'm trying to seperate all the trading cards to find out what we have here. Everything going good for you? Not too many hours left!

reply

Everything has been fine here. Been pretty steady, but yes only a few more hours left. Can't wait to get home. What's the plans for today? We could go for a drive. Get some ice cream or something.

reply

We can go for a drive if you would like, that's fine with me. Maybe stop at the park with the dog and the baby or something.

reply

That sounds good. Figured since it would be something since I don't have close. Everything okay?

reply

Yeah things are good, just playing with the baby & the dog, and seperating all the cards. Not too much going on. Watching dick van dyke, and about to put on elmo for the baby.

reply

HOLY *beep* It has been *beep* nuts here. So busy. We had a crazy rush and there was only two tellers.

reply

Sounds like a situation for massive beepings! So I don't know if the washer is actually working or not. We'll have to look at it over the weekend sometime. I got a lot of the cards seperated so at least we know what categories they are, I can't believe how many there are!

reply

What can I say, I didn't have many friends as a child and needed something to pass the time. Life wasn't exciting till there was you.

reply

Very funny honey. So I have all but one song that I swear is impossible to find for your cds. I will keep trying though. Cubs start at 1:20 so that will be nice to watch. Only 3ish hours left for you, yay!

reply

I wasn't joking. It's true. Since meeting you I have a house, a dog, three cats, one 18 month old and a nine year old( you still haven't explained that one to me), a new car, long hair, and a beard. Before you I just had spiky hair. No worries about the song love.

reply

You're so silly, can't wait til you get home. We can take the stroller out & go for a walk around with the dog & the baby. It will be a lot of fun. It's a beautiful day out. I just wish the little one would let us sleep a bit more than he has been. ;)

reply

I know. It's crazy. Tonight will keep him up to 8:30 and see what happens.

reply

Sounds like a good idea to me. Man, it was crazy here for a few minutes with the dog freaking out and everything. But all is good now, I think he just wanted to go outside for a bit. I hope you are able to get off at 4, I miss you (of course). ;)

reply

yeah, I'm going to still try for it. I just want to come home so bad

reply

We want you to come home as well. All those books that are in the box behind the couch are going, right? I just want to make sure before I list them on ebay.

reply

Yep Yep. I'm going to punch someone in the face.

reply

Why, what's going on? You ok?

reply

Just so busy....No worries. Less then two hours maybe even less then an hour and a half.

reply

The earlier the better, I just hope it's going by quick for you with how busy it is. The Cubs just went from losing 1-0 in the 7th to losing 8-0, and still in the 7th. This year is just painful. I'm sure Ron Santo is having a heart attack right now.

reply

His legs are rolling over in their grave.

reply

That's so mean!!! I can't believe you. He seems like such a nice guy. What songs did you want for Brandon? I forgot. We have to stop by Best Buy, I found a 10% off coupon for there & I called & they will do a price adjustment for it, so that will be nice. =)

reply

Sweet. We can get a movie for tonight. No worries about the songs. We can do it another time. Leaving in 30mins if it's not crazy.

reply

Good good hopefully you will be out of there soon. It's been nuts here, so the Cubs lost 12-0, and then the dog took a crap in the bedroom, and Brandon stepped in it like 3 times. So we took a shower, which he actually liked so that was nice. Only 5 hours tomm & then you are on vaca, yay!

reply

Good morning hon, how are you doing today?

reply

FOUR HOURS LEFT!!!! That's how I'm doing. Can't wait to get home. Everything okay for you?

reply

Yeah, things are going good here. Brandon actually let me sleep til about 730 so that was nice. Now he is watching Elmo & eating some cereal. Can't wait til you get off!!! Anything exciting this morning?

reply

Nothing what so ever. Listened to the 100 Highways album. Good, but really sad. Listened to the Edward soundtrack and I loved it. Going to listen to Bitter tears on my way home. What's the plan for today?

reply

Yay, I'm glad you liked them! I don't know, probably go to the park and walk around or something with the baby and the dog. Did you have any ideas?

reply

None what so ever. Just want to relax and enjoy myself. Going for a walk sounds good.

reply

Good good, it will be a lot of fun to just chill out & relax for awhile with you. I'm glad we have time off together.

reply

THREE HOURS LEFT!!!!!!

reply

YAY! Can't wait =) The dog is chasing the baby around, and Brandon keeps jumping on the couch so the dog will jump up there too, and they kind of roll around, but Brandon just dies laughing each time, it is SO cute.

reply

That little boy is great. You should have seen him in the bath yesterday. "No No Jefferson"

reply

Aww I bet. He loves that dcg, and he eggs him on so much. He's watching Thomas the Train right now, seems to like it. Only 2 hours & 20 minutes left!

reply

That he does. Only 2hrs and 15 now

reply

Down to 2 hours, woohoo!! I am going up to best buy & returning the vacuum, it's so big & bulky & just not what I was looking for. So we will get $115 back which we probably need. Arron still hasn't answered me about child support, though I shoudln't be surprised. Anyway, I am going to change the baby & go up & return that really quick here.

reply

Okay. I don't think we're going to get child support from Arron though. Just be careful driving.

reply

I will =) We'll try to fix our old vacuum, that will be one of our projects for the week. If not we'll buy one in a month or so.

reply

I can fix it when I get home. Is the bank account that bad that we need to take the new vaccum back?

reply

It will be if we are not careful, we have a bunch of stuff going out. That insurance thing didn't help much, having to pay up front, and with arron not paying, it sucks.

reply

We can get by somehow I guess.

reply

Of course we are, we always do. It will all be fine.

reply

Little more then a hour left.

reply

Good good. My cousin heather from pennsylvania just texted me (she's one of uncle butchs & aunt debbies daughters you haven't met) but I guess they are in chicago & want to meet up. She has a son about 2 I think is his age

reply

When are we going to meet them?

reply

I don't know, I thought we'd talk about it when you get home. They are in town til tues. 15 min left!!

reply

Good morning sweet heart. How is everything going? Things are okay here. Just trying to get back into the swing of things.

reply

Morning! Things are good here, just got to work. Hopefully the day goes well for you. I hope your car starts when you leave, otherwise you can call your mom, she said she could get you if need be. Dylan was over there this morning, soooo cute, he saw me & he was like Emma! & then tried to grab my hand to go wake up your dad. It was really cute.

reply

Yes, I'm hoping the car doesn't give me any trouble. Dylan is pretty cute. He kept grabbing my hand yesterday and saying "Outside? Outside?". The bank won free food from Chipotle so I get free lunch today. Been writing in the movies we watched in my movie notebook. Can't remember all of them. Have a great day at work and write if you get the chance. Love you...and you looked great today all naked.

reply

That's great about the lunch, free is always good. I will try to think about the movies as well. I'll write next time I can, love you!

reply

Love you too!!!

reply

Hey honey, how's it going? Things are good here, just on a 10 min break from training. They are buying us lunch in the cafeteria every day this week which is so awesome, they have tons of food. We may get out an hour or 1/2 hour early if things go smoothly which would be great! :)

reply

That's really good news about the lunch and the chance to leave early. I'm going to try to read my book in a few here. I forgot my glasses at home though. What's the plan for tonight? If you're down for a movie we should think of something good. If you have homework or something else to do I'm going to read my book. I've need to get rolling on it. Maybe we could watch a netflix movie on the computer.

reply

Yeah we can totally watch a movie tonight. I have a few discussion questions to answer but that won't take too long. Don't forget the all-star game is on tonight too! Just had lunch, grilled cheese, fries, coke & cookies...mmmmm. Hope your book is going well, love you!

reply

We can watch the All Star Game then. Book is good only about eighty pages left. Less then three hours to go.

reply

Can't wait to get home to see you! Love you mucho :)

reply

Love you more sweets!!!!

reply

2 more lessons to go....days starting to drag since lunch, it just made me tired haha. Not too much longer for you.

reply

Not too much longer at all. Less then four hours for you though. Almost done with my book. Thinking of getting another one either today or tomorrow. Can't wait to have some mash potatoes tonight. If you want to watch the All Star game tonight I have a good idea. I'm going to push the other tv in the living room and hook up my SNES. Yep, that dorky. Can't wait to see you. Tomorrow is going to be so lonely with you gone. I talked to my Mom and she told me Stan's wake will be Thursday night.

reply

Good morning. Did you make it to work on time today? Hope all is well.

reply

Hey there. Things are good here, just on a 10 min break. Did the baby get off ok? How are things for you?

reply

Brandon got off fine this morning. He was in a good mood. Things are going fine for me as well. Not very busy today. We should have some nice clothes we can change Brandon into before we leave for the wake. I don't imagine we'll be there very long though. An hour tops.

reply

Sounds good, we'll get it all worked out. Today is going by pretty quick so that's nice, even though we only get 15 for lunch & we have to eat in class to make up for tomm. At least it's good food which is nice.

reply

That's too bad about the short lunch, but at least the day is going by fast and smooth. Things are still okay here. I was able to get a referral today, so that helps out.

reply

Good good good. Just can't wait to get home, and tomorrow is friday & it's the weekend, woohoo!!

reply

It'll will be nice for you to have the weekend off. It's too bad we have to go the gathering on Sunday, but we shouldn't be there too long.

reply

2nd Post: It's Terry O'Quinn's birthday tonight.

reply

Yay John Locke!! At least it's already 1:30

reply

Yes, time is going by quick. I talked to my Mom. Brandon is doing fine and she cooked mac and cheese for us.

reply

2nd Post: I was reading about 18month olds. We need to get a potty seat and try to start training him. Also we need to work on his speech development. I'm really starting to worry that he doesn't say anything.

reply

He'll be ok, I think it's going to work out fine. I just found out we get tons of free stuff at diff places, like free admission to the field museum!! Isn't that awesome? We can get a potty seat this weekend, no prob

reply

I just would really like to focus on his speech more. No worries. Less then thre hours to go.

reply

We can do it, no issues. He's doing good though, don't worry. I am getting sooooo sleepy from sitting here. I wish I had coffee but the coffee here sucks

reply

Just keep thinking 2hrs and 15mins. I say tonight we have drinks and watch Close Encounters of the Third Kind and have sex mid way through film. Tell me baby are you down, down, down, down, down....

reply

2nd Post: Is that you calling? call again

reply

3rd Post: so someone called me from a restricted number and when I answered thinking it was you it was some girl on a cell phone asking if I had given her my number. Belive you me I set her straight.

reply

4th post for new day: Good morning sweetheart. How are you doing?

reply

Good morning, I am doing good, how are you? Just waiting for the day to start, have that big test today. Not looking forward to it. I'm so tired today, the week has really caught up with me. But just make it through today & then it's the weekend so that is mucho nice.

reply

I'm sure you'll do fine on the test. Hopefully you'll still be able to get out of work at four. I'm doing fine here. Just a little tired.

reply

Yeah I hear ya. Tonight will be fun though. Cubs play at 1 so you will have to keep me up to date on that. Anything in particular you would like to watch tonight? I really really hope I get out at 4, oh yes sir.

reply

I'll take a look at the tapes at my parents house. I hope you're able to leave at four as well. How was Brandon this morning. He seemed like he was really happy.

reply

Guess who finished first and got a 100% on her test!! Heehee I'm happy now. Treating myself to peanut butter cookies, yum yum. Alright, have to go back in, just wanted to let you know, love you! Hope we find a good movie for tonignt while we are cuddling :)

reply

GO HON GO!!! GO HON GO. HEY CHICAGO WHATTA SAY, EMMA'S DOING GREAT TODAY!!!! That's good sweetheart. I'll make sure to find a good flick for tonight.

reply

2nd Post: My phone battery died. If you need to get a hold of me call my work. Everything going okay?

reply

Lol you're so funny. On a 10 min break now & then on to the post class thing & then hopefully go home at 4! I doubt it, but I can hope.

reply

Cool cool cool. Sounds good. So since next Saturday is when we are kids free do you want to go see some live music somewhere?

reply

That's fine with me, don't forget we are child free tomm night as well :)

reply

Tomorrow? Mitch and Jill are watching him tomorrow too? OHHHHHHH!!!! That's what you meant yesterday about dropping the baby off after four. Great. We can think of some fun stuff then.

reply

Yes yes it will so be fun. I am getting so bored sitting here. Parts of it were hilarious but now it's all training again so booooo on that, looks like it will be til 6 which is retarded. How are you?

reply

Just fine. Happy about tomorrow and have less then two hours to go.

reply

So tired. So so tired. Everything okay at home?

reply

Yeah things are going ok. The baby is being awesome,but I just may kill the dog. He had pooped in 3 different places last night, and it's not coming out well. Plus he ransacked the garbage again. Grrrr. How is work? Have you been busy? You've been pretty quiet.

reply

I was giving you time for the morning duties and then waiting for you to reply. Things are okay. I'm going to use a worklife and leave at 11 today. There are a bunch of garage sales in Sycamore today. Thought you would like to go to them and then we could head to Cherry Valley for your clothes and then drop the baby off on the way back. Sound like a plan?

reply

That sounds great! Perfect planning. I'm glad you're getting off early. You should just leave at 10 though ;)

reply

I almost left at eight this morning. Maybe 10:30. We'll have to see. It's going to be a nice day out, but tonight there might be storms. Should be good though all in all.

reply

Good good, I am excited to get out and do something. Storms would be fine, I don't mind them at all.

reply

Me either. So how much do you love me? Just found out there are maps at the bank with all the locations and times for the garage sales.

reply

That's awesome! Good good good, we haven't been garage sailing in awhile, so it will be quite fun.

reply

The paper is great. It tells what they sell at the places and everything

reply

Oh wow, that'll be awesome to pick and choose the ones we want to hit then so that will be nice.

reply

Yeah, excited about going to the mall and walking around too.

reply

Do you think that'd be better before or after we drop the baby off? I just don't want him to be freaking out & whatnot

reply

We can go after if you want. We're dropping him off a little after four so that'll give us enough time to hit the sales. Man, for a second I thought I was fifty short on my drawer and had to play Sherlock Homles. I figured it out though.

reply

That's what I was thinking. We'll probably get there about 3:45 or so. Glad you figured the drawer out, now come home ;)

reply

Morning sweetheart. Make it to work okay?

reply

Hey there, how's everything going? Finally on a break, it's been crazy today with all the training. How are you?

reply

I'm well. Been a having a much slower day here. Bad for referrals, but good for reading. I'm been racking my brain for a movie that has the same feel to it like "Something Wicked...". Want to watch it, but I need to finish the book first and it's good enough that I want to take my time. Haven't called to check on Brandon yet today, but I will soon. Hope training is making the day go fast for you.

reply

Yeah definitely let me know how he's doing when you call. Yeah the day is flying by so that is nice. I'm glad you're enjoying your book. I hope our charlie chaplin scrapbook comes in soon

reply

Brandon is doing fine. He's got his fly swatter and has been running around with it. It may take some time on the scrapbook. Isn't it coming from France?

reply

Yes sir it is. It'll be cool to see, even if it is all in french. Back to work, so enjoy your book & I love you :)

reply

Love you too. Message when you can and think of a movie!!!

reply

Good morning, how is everything going? Just got to your parents house to drop off the baby. I went to Austin's school & got all that figured out too. I think there is a parent orientation on August 11th, I'll have to check the sheets but she reminded me again today. School starts on August 25th. Good news though, the strike is done! Your dad is at work right now setting up the boilers & they are going to be good to go. Your parents are both so excited about it of course. Then she said that since the game was late on Sunday, and your dad was going to be up and down getting ready for work, that we should let Brandon just stay the night. I think your dad must have talked to her about it. But she didn't sound unhappy about it or anything, so that works out nicely.

reply

I heard on the radio today that the strike was almost done. That is really good news. I'm sure my Dad said something to her about Sunday. It's going to be nice to just be able to go straight home then. Whatever day orientation is we can go and get a feeling for things. Things are going well here. With it being Tuesday and probably going to rain it has been slow. Been doing some more reading. Brandon seemed like he was in a good mood this morning. I'm going to need gas on the way home so I'm going to use the credit card.

reply

Sorry for lack of talking, just so much going on! How are you? I'll message when I can

reply

I'm fine. It's actually been pretty steady today. Been getting a lot of reading done though. Talk to my Mom. She made more mac and cheese.

reply

Woohoo I love mac & cheese! It'll be good for us to munch on tonight. The day is flying by from being on the phones & training in between. But that's just closer to being home so I am happy about that. :)

reply

That's good then. Just a little more then three hours left for me. Looking forward to getting off.

reply

How's the book coming? Things are good here, just wanting to get done that's for sure

reply

The book is coming along fine. I only have about twenty pages left. What are the plans for tonight? Mac and cheese will be good. We need to get the movie so we can watch it.

reply

Good morning. Everything okay for you? Things are fine here. Turns out I was suppose to work 7-4 instead of 9-6. Still going to be staying till 6 though I wish I could have done 7-4. Oh well. Hope today goes good for you.

reply

Good morning, that stinks about the hrs, sorry to hear that. I got my 1st app today, woohoo! Thanks so much for taking brandon today, I would have been so screwed. I had to go back home & change my pants, turned out jefferson peed on them. Did you remember your book?

reply

Yep, I've got it right here. Been doing some reading. Really needed to get some referrals. Need to get to closed. It's been so hard with the closed referrals lately. No one has the money to be opening up accounts. No worries though. We'll keep our fingers crossed for both of our referrals.

reply

Lol now I know what you feel like with that! Grabbing a sandwich & going back to my desk, woohoo. Grrrrr

reply

At least it's past noon now. Going to jump into my book. Love you!!!

reply

Love you too :)

reply

Only five more hours to go!!!

reply

Can you believe it's 330 already? Yay! How's it going for you?

reply

Things are okay. I actually managed to get a referral so that's good. Just been reading and googling about Jules Verne and different things in the book. How has the day been for you? Everything going alright? Any ideas for tonight? Any comments or suggestions. You looked really pretty this morning.

reply

Well that's cool for you. The day has been okay, just happy that there is only 2 hours left, yay! And then one more day tomorrow, and then it's the weekend!! Woohoo for that. Which means only 3 more days til the Cubbies, yay!! Thank you =) No really good suggestions for tonight, anything you wanted to do?

reply

I'm really looking forward to seeing the Cubbies. It's going to be a good game and we are going to have fun. Nah, for tonight we'll probably end up doing the same old story of watching a movie. I'll see what random one I can find at my parents' house.

reply

Yes yes we are. Only 1 hour to go, woohoo!! You want to get drinks tonight, don't you?

reply

Less then a hour to now. We could do that. In no way was I implying that, but it would work.

reply

You're cute, I like you ;)

reply

You just want to play with my Spock. It's totally logical. Even after all these space doughnuts.

reply

We totally need to watch some star trek, oh yes sir.

reply

I'll grab a disc when I get Brandon then.

reply

Hi

reply

Good morning, how is it going for you? Getting here was pretty crazy with the traffic & the rain, but I made it. How is your morning going?

reply

Morning is going fine. Very boring. Happy you made it in time. I think it's suppose to start raining again though. Looks like I'm schedule till five, but I'm going to be leaving at like 4:15 or 4:30. Was Brandon okay this morning?

reply

Yeah, he was okay, but he woke up pretty early & was really crabby by the time we got to your parents. He's so cute though. I got an app this morning & since it's Friday, anyone who gets an app picks a cd til the next person gets one, so I'm listening to Fergie ;)

reply

I am now offically disowning you. It's bad enough you have her shoes. What's next? Fergalicious ice cream. One lick and your lips explode.

reply

Lmao that is great. I did wear my Fergie shoes yesterday. They were super comfy too. ;) Love you!

reply

Love you too!!!

reply

Well that's good news, since we're married & all ;) It was so nice to get a good nights sleep last night, and now it's the weekend!!!! You know what that means? Playtime tonight ;)

reply

You been promising that for days. What time are you off tonight? Weekend is going to be nice. Cubs game at 1:20 today.

reply

Well it will be done tonight. I am off between 5-6, depends on how many apps I get. The weekend will be really nice, especially the Cubs game, woohoo!!!! That stinks about the cubs being on so early tonight, but at least I will be able to follow it on my computer.

reply

I need referrals. I'm dying here. I'm also hungry.

reply

Yeah same here, did you bring lunch with you? If not, make sure to go to burger king or something so you can get something to eat. How many more referrals do you need? I'm trying to get my last app for today so I don't have to stay later than 5, but we will see.

reply

7 more. I just need to get two closed. I've got some stuff to eat here. Just want to get the day over with and get head from you while having a beer and watch Star Trek. Is that too much to ask?

reply

Lol no not too much to ask, it should be a lot of fun actually heehee ;) Cubs play soon woohoo

reply

They do!!! Crazy day at work. Got two referrals which is awesome. Amber got into HUGE trouble. She's no longer supervisor. Turns out the floating PB is going to be turned into the teller line supervisor. Old supervisor just found out she's having a baby and now is going to be going part time as well. All in all the only thing I care about is the two referrals. That and the afore mentioned head, beer, star trek. Oh, and I want to play with you butt some.

reply

That's so crazy!!! Can't wait to get home & have all that stuff too. Oh yes siree ;) Can you believe it's 2 already? And I haven't even checked the cubs game! Dang it. But anyway, only a few hours left!! Woohoo!

reply

1-0 Cubs in the top of the 3rd.

reply

Sweet! I'm pulling it up on espn now

reply

So you have to get off asap. It's a good day for a drive.

reply

Haha yeah that won't happen. It is a nice day for a drive though, have you been outside? It's hot and muggy that's for sure

reply

No, haven't been outside at all. It looks nice. I meant that you should leave at like 4 or 4:30. We also should watch Mystery Science Theater3000. When is the VHS coming. Did we not win it?

reply

Nope, can't leave early, sorry. No, we didn't win the VHS, it ended up selling for like 15 bucks! Crazy crazy

reply

Why have you forsaken me? What time will you be off today?

reply

I told you, between 5-6 depending on how many apps I get. Probably 5 though.

reply

Ops. Sorry didn't mean to offend.

reply

You didn't, don't worry about it. I need a nice backrub tonight though, oh yes ;) 4-0 CUBS!

reply

5-0

reply

Good morning, how's everything going? What time did you leave? Did you make it to work okay? We had some bad storms last night, the thunder kept waking me up. How did you sleep?

reply

Morning sex ass. What we doing today?

reply

2nd post: I left at 7:30. I woke up at 6 and saw the power went out so I set my phone alarm clock. I slept okay. The storm woke me up, but it was really cool to hear. The bedroom light was on the whole night for some reason though. So sexy woman. What's the plan for today.

reply

Yeah I couldn't sleep so I went and got my Chaplin book until I fell asleep. I was too lazy to shut off the light after that ;) I'm not sure, I wish it wasn't so crappy outside. Do you have any ideas?

reply

Other then making sweet sweet love to you I have none. Did we get Spock ears last night?

reply

Haha yes yes we did. Did you hear about the N. Korea guy that's ready to declare war on us & S. Korea? That guy is just insane, seriously. It's scary as hell though.

reply

Yes, I did hear about it and it's very disturbing. We can only hope that some how things will be able to work out. I don't know why anyone would want to start a nuclear war. I think if we send photos of you bare bottem things would calm down. Then again it may make them "launch" prematurely.

reply

You're such a nut. Come home now, eh?

reply

I would if I could, but I can't. Only two more hours though.

reply

Good good good. At least it's not that far away. We have to go grocery shopping, there's no food here. At least it's clearing up a little so that's nice

reply

We can go when I get home. At least it'll get us out of the house for a while.

reply

That's what I was thinking. If we feel adventerous we can head to springhill or fox valley after that

reply

Exactly what I was thinking too. God, your so smart and sexy.

reply

Good, I'm glad we agree...on all accounts ;) Maybe we'll go to the mall 1st & then grocery shopping. We definitely have to fill up brandons tire though

reply

Sounds good to me. Just a little more then an hour to go. How is Brandon this morning?

reply

He's doing just fine, he's been up since you've left & we have just been playing around. Right now he is watching elmo & having a snack so he is happy

reply

Good good. He is a beautiful boy. Less then an hour to go now. I'm hoping today I can pull off doing the old man sweater.

reply

You might, but it's pretty humid outside. Brandon & I just walked up to the post office, he loved it. The lady gave him a sucker so then he was reeeeaaallly happy. The old guys that hang out there were saying we had over 6 inches of rain. How crazy. The basement got a little flooded. Cubs game at 12:05 today, yay!

reply

I figured it would get flooded. No worries. Brandon is such a goof. We make great kids. Less then 30mins to go.

reply

Good morning sunshine. Did you make it to work okay today? I got to the bank in time and now and just waiting for six. I'm really hoping to get a few referrals. Still need five with two closed. You are right, the Cubs play at 7:05 tonight againist the Astros. I had this funny thought that here you are as the hot and hip young wife at a game looking wel...hot and hip and I'd be the fat guy sitting by himself marking down the stats and mummbling to myself with my Star Trek back bag fiiled with pens and paper on my seat. That's what you're into though right? I looked up Disturbed's new cd release date and it's August 24th. I also looked up information on socail anxiety. Most of it does go hand in hand with how I was thinking/feeling. Well since I've almost wrote you a book here I'll wrap it up. Have a wonderful and productive day. Love you very much.

reply

2nd Post: text me our mailing address when you have a chance.

reply

3rd post: My Mom just called me. Everything is okay, but last night Brandon got bite by a mosquito. He's got a pretty good size lump on his forehead and she's taking him over by Melonie to look at it. I googled allergic reaction in toddlers and it looks like it's pretty common. They can run a low fever so I told her to keep on eye out for that. She said that he's fine and running around, but she's still going to get it checked out. I'll write or text you once I hear anything, but I don't suspect any thing major.

reply

Hi hon, sorry for the delay, but we are in a "phone-a-thon" period right now, I will text you that as soon as it is over. Things are going okay here, just really busy, especially with it being Monday and everything. I'm glad you're doing good, and I am glad you looked up that info. That sucks about Brandon, but yeah it is pretty common. Poor little guy. He's so darn cute though, I miss him. Can't wait to see both of you tonight!

reply

Just got your last text, what's wrong?

reply

Melonie thinks we need to take him to the doctor. I tried calling you five times. I even sent a text. I've been really upset about all this.

reply

Just talked to your mom, she is taking him to the doctor. I am texting you my direct line to work, and the 800 # with my extension.

reply

That's good, but I feel like *beep* that we aren't taking him ourselves. I'm tired of everything thinking we're bad parents.

reply

I really don't think they think that. And if your mom had any problem with it, I was planning on leaving. But she really didn't, she just wanted to get him in asap. I am going to call her in 5 here when I am on my lunch.

reply

She just called me. She's going to be taking him at four.

reply

Don't worry. Everything is going to be okay.

reply

Did you get my text message about asking melonie to babysit the rest of this week? What do you think?

reply

Yes I did. That's fine with me. My Mom called about 30mins ago. She talked to someone at doctor's office. She's not going to take him today. The nurse says that if it gets bigger or he develops a fever within 24hrs then to.

reply

2nd post: okay even more bad news. I went to Taco Bell to get lunch and the credit card was denied. Good news is the people at Taco Bell are really nice and let me have the food anyway.

reply

That's okay, I will pay on it when I get home tonight. It's good you still got food though. Other than that, how is everything? How did the convo with your mom go?

reply

First one turned into a her yelling at me and me telling her not to talk to you like that. She was making a big deal that the stove wasn't turned on at the house. I told her that didn't have to do with anything. She ended up hanging up on me. About forty minutes later she called back to say she talked to a nurse. She was very calm. I told her we'd talk about everything when I got home. What a bad day. Can't wait to get home and see you tonight.

reply

I can't wait either. I am so mad at your mom. Seriously, she needs to understand that it is OUR choice that she gets to watch Brandon, it is not something she chooses. And if she wants to continue to have him in her life, then she needs to watch her step. I'm done. I refused to be talked to that way, I am not a bad mom, and you are not a bad dad. And no one will say anything different. She's a real piece of work. Makes me happy we at least have Jil who knows how to treat her kids & her grandkids. She acts more like your grandmother than she would ever admit, and she can kiss my ass. I've called 6 daycare places, tonight I will be looking at more, I just have to figure out the closest to me, or the closest to you so we'll work it all out. I have not had time to call your sister yet though, but I'll do it tonight or something.

reply

We'll get everything figured out. I'm very upset with myself. Less then three hours to go and then we can just rest from this bad day.

reply

Why are you upset with yourself? What did you do wrong? Nothing, and don't let her try to put any of her bad crap on you.

reply

You just made my day. I meant to write "upset with her myself" I think I'm just tired. I need to sleep really bad. My brain feels fried.

reply

Yeah I hear ya. We will make tonight an early night, eh? Not too much longer to go though, so yay for that. Let me know how it goes with your mom tonight, I'm interested to see if she apologizes for being a total bitch.

reply

I doubt she will. Yes, tonight will be a Dick Van Dyke on the couch night.

reply

Yay! I love those nights. What do you think, should we let her keep watching him?

reply

Let's just talk about it when we get home. We're look at our options and go from there with it.

reply

Okey dokey, sounds good. Only an hour left now! Love you

reply

Yep, can't wait to get home. It's been such an awful day.

reply

Good morning sweetheart. This is just a friendly reminder not to destory my Mother today.

reply

Lmao maybe just a little? ;) Nah, I probably won't say anything to her, and if I do, I will be sweet as pie- it'll just piss her off more that I won't argue with her. hahaha. In any case, today should be fun. I am dropping the baby off around 930 & then I am going to tan really quick & go in early to work to get some paperwork done. How are you?

reply

I'm fine. Tried, but fine. You have to work till eight tonight don't you. I forgot about that. No worries though. Brandon looked so sweet this morning.

reply

Yeah unfortunately I do, but it'll all be good, shouldn't be much traffic so hopefully I will be home within half an hour or so. Brandon is sooooooooooo sweet. He's been snuggling with me, it's adorable. Tired here as well, but today will be over soon enough. Dick van dyke tonight will be fun. I have to find out if theres a cubs game tonight.

reply

There is at seven. Yes, Dick Van Dyke with a blanket. No worries about my Mom. Let me know if Melonie is going to watch him.

reply

Your mom is watching him through friday so just pick him up at the normal time today

reply

Everything okay though? Everyone still has the normal number of fingers?

reply

Fine as can be. I will tell you all about it later.

reply

Everything is going to be okay. Just get to work and focus on that. It'll help take your mind off things.

reply

That's what I am doing, just got here, about to start making some calls, so if I don't talk for awhile, that's why. Otherwise everything is good, I'm just putting my all into work & not worrying about anything else right now.

reply

That's thing to do that is. See what I did there. I was talking like Ringo. Save all of your anger for sex tonight. By tomorrow neither of us should be walking.

reply

Hahah alright that sounds like a darn good plan to me.

reply

It's almost noon. We've got that going for us. Cheer up sweetheart. The kids and I love you.

reply

But i'm yours if you want and
I can be yours to spend your life with
I can be yours, we'll hide indoors
petrified of the world

And if you'd rather stay in at night
I can relate to that
And if feels like your hearts dried up
I can relate to that
And if you need someone at your side
I am out there, I'm out there, out there

reply

I love you =) LIKE BUNCHES, TONS OF BUNCHES! I have been talking to a girl that wants to nanny in our home, she has a one year old son (which would be great for Brandon), references, experience, and cpr trained. I am calling her on my lunch just to see what she's like and whatnot & we will go from there. Sound good?

reply

Sounds good. We need to do a sit down meeting with her and she'll need references.

reply

Of course. But I'm thinking that would be an added perk if she was at our house, then aj could just come home after school & it would be all good. She has 4 references she gave me, and like I said, I'm doing a phone interview with her today, so we will see!

reply

Sounds good. We can talk more about it when I get home.

reply

Coolio, just talked to her, took some notes, got some reference numbers, so I can call them today. We cleared up everything but salary, and she is willing to negotiate on that, so we will have more information on that later, but thinking a sitdown on Sunday so the kids can meet & all that if the price is right. Other than that, just making phone calls, but no apps yet =( How are you doing today?

reply

Doing good. About to leave actually. Love you!!!

reply

Love you too, I'll call you when I can, and I'll see you soon

reply

Morning sweetheart. How goes it?

reply

Good morning. It goes okay, although the app that I came in early for didn't close, so I am pretty pissed about that. How are you? How was Brandon this morning?

reply

I'm fine. Just praying to get my two closed referrals. Pretty hard to get people to do anything with their money when they think the bank is going under. Brandon was great this morning. He was nothing, but smiles and laughter. The horse shoe we ordered came today. It's not that big though, but I'm still going to hang it up tonight.

reply

Yeah I know how you feel, I am still waiting on any apps for the week. So we will see, but it's just so annoying! Anyway, I'm glad Brandon was good, he is so damn cute =) I'm glad you like the horseshoe ;)

reply

He is very cute. I excited about meeting the new nanny. I just hope that the dog won't be a problem. Outback was such a good idea last night. The movie was a little boring. No Cubs game tonight, so it'll give us a chance for you to catch up on your homework and me to get some more reading in. We should ponder what are dinner tonight should be. Funny, years ago the big thing was to "smoke", then it was "drinks", and now it's food. Out of all three I prefer food though myself. So good luck today sweetheart, happy hunting, have a great day, but try to come up with some thoughts for dinner. Love you

reply

Yeah Outback was definitely a good idea. Yeah, I have to write an outline for my research paper, but I have no clue what to write about. I need some ideas. Not sure about dinner, it seems so far off, haha. But yeah, I totally agree with you about the food thing. I'm really excited about meeting her as well, and I hope the dog thing works out. It would just be so convenient, and she seems really nice. I'm looking forward to it. How did your mom treat you this morning? You have a good day too with referrals, and I love you mucho!

reply

We didn't really talk. I just told her that I was off at six and that was it. Just saw that Saturday is the last day of the month so that extra day makes me happier. Love you too!

reply

Yeah, I am kinda happy I have to work Saturday too because I still have 0 apps!! Grrrrr. But at least it's 2 now so that's kinda nice.

reply

Time has flown. I got stuck making copies and putting away the coin order. Just a little more then three hours left.

reply

Yeah it has here as well, I'll just be happy to get off though. Can't wait to see you & the baby =)

reply

Just a little more then 2hrs now and then tomorrow is Friday.

reply

Love you too =) How is everything going for you today?

reply

I was just about to message you. Everything is fine. Let's just get through this long day, get our numbers, and then enjoy the weekend. This morning they started doing road construction right the house on the street. I dropped off the camera today at my parents house too. My Mom said she didn't ask for it back. Don't know why she's acting that way. She wanted to know who was watching Brandon next week. I told her we had hired a nanny. I can't believe I'm stuck here till seven.

reply

I know! It was crazy how much construction there was. What did she have to say about the nanny situation?

reply

Didn't really give her a chance to say anything. I told her and then said what time you were off and said to call me if anything came up. Good news. Got two referrals and one closed. Just need one more closed and I'm done. Looking at imdb the movie from last night is actually part of a four movie series.

reply

Good good good, I still need two more apps for this week. That's crazy about the movie. I bet your mom is steaming over the nanny thing. You still have the credit card so make sure you get some taco bell or something for lunch

reply

I forgot that I didn't give it back. No worries. I still have a veggie burger from yesterday. Just sucks that I have to work till seven, BUT as long as I hit my numbers I don't really mind. Yeah, I'm sure my Mom is on the phone with everyone because of the nanny thing.

reply

Ok good good. Yeah that does really suck, I hope you hit your numbers. I have had no luck so far, and we have a meeting at one, ugh. As far as your mom goes, it's her own fault so whatever.

reply

Well it's over and done with so no worries. Tonight we'll have our movie and then just our short shifts to get through tomorrow.

reply

Yes yes, just tomorrow & we will be done! Woot woot. I'm excited for our movie tonight, and the fact that there are 3 more parts after it!

reply

Yep, hopefully it will be a good night then. Almost one. Only about four more hours to go for you.

reply

Crap it is almost one, I have my meeting to go to, I will talk to you after, I am probably going to leave early, I have no new prospects & none of the old ones are picking up their phones. I'll let you know if I do, love you!

reply

Love you too honey. Give them hell in the meeting!!!

reply

2nd Post: Long meeting. Must be getting pretty boring.

reply

So I got to your parents & your mom kept saying that she wanted to watch brandon, and how well dylan & brandon get along & all that. I don't know, it's def better because its free & it's true about brandon & dylan. What do you think?

reply

I think you two need to sit down and talk.

reply

We did somewhat, which is the only reason I would consider it. But I didn't want to make decisions without you. We could still give crystal the afterschool job with aj & whenever he had off school while we had to work.

reply

That's fine with me. I think you two need to have a family hug though.

reply

You're soooooooo funny. She does want us to come over this weekend though so we can all sit down and talk. What should we offer crystal to be here with AJ until we get home, and also on 1/2 days and his off days? I was thinking we could either offer $10 an hour, or a set amount a week. What do you think?

reply

$10 an hour is fine with me. What does my Mom want to talk about though. I don't feel like getting told that I'm bad Dad or have them butt their heads into our business.

reply

She wants to talk about our schedules & working everything out so there's no hard feelings with anyone. It won't be anything like that, we'll let her say her piece of what she expects, we'll see what we expect & that's that. We'll just clear the air & be done with it.

reply

No worries then. Only an hour and twenty left!!!! Thought the day would never end. How's Brandon doing?

reply

I know, I miss you!! Brandon is doing fine, him & I have been running around & playing so he is happy. He's also very tired, your mom said he only slept for about an hour and a half total today so he may be in bed by the time you get home. We'll see. We are about to go take a shower, so I am sure he will like that ;)

reply

He does enjoy his shower time. He's hasn't been taking too many naps lately. No worries though. If you need to put him down it's okay. Tomorrow I'll be picking him up from Jill's still? Would it be alright too if I picked up a case of beer on my way home?

reply

That's fine, you can go to the place in town, you know, the one next to DAIRY QUEEN? *hint hint* Yeah, still picking him up from Jils tomorrow. I'm not telling her your mom is watching him again, she'll be mad.

P.S. Oreo and double peanut butter cup, just in case you forgot ;)

reply

Not only did I not forget, but as soon as DQ sees D. Lee they start making it. No worries about Jill. I won't say anything about it. Less then one hour to go.

reply

Best of both worlds then! Feel free to get taco bell for yourself if you want it for dinner. Only half an hour left!!

reply

I know!!!! This work day has taken forever to get over with. Listening to Pandora right now. George Harrison=Greatness

reply

Good morning honey. Just wanted to let you know I forgot my phone at home. Is everything going okay for you today?

reply

Did you get ahold of your mom? My phone died. She wanted to know if she was watching Brandon today, but it only rang 3 times & then my phone died. Everything is fine here. You?

reply

I had told her yesterday that Jill was watching him. Just tried to call her, but she didn't answer. I'm fine. Just waiting for the day to get over with. What are the plans for today? What's the score? You looked amazingly hot in bed today.

reply

I don't know. I have to finish my outline, and then probably watch the Cubs game. Maybe read a bit.

reply

Are you okay? There's nothing wrong is there? Want to get Outback tonight and make the sex?

reply

Morning sweetheart. You looked very beautiful this morning. You also missed a great movie last night. It easily makes my top ten. I want to get it for my Dad sometime. How is everything going for you? Were you able to drop off the check and get to your appointment? Things are going fine. Here really hoping to get a referral today. This month I want them all to be done and over with as soon as possible.

reply

Good morning, and thank you =) I didn't think the movie looked that interesting, but it looks like I should have stayed up for it, eh? Everything is going fine, just trying to stay awake & stay on task. Lots of phone calls & that's about it. Sent everything out & got to my appt so all is good. When you call to check on the baby, ask if your mom may be able to watch Brandon on Saturday. I am going to have to work 9-1 again because a waiver is coming out on Saturday, so they expect a busy day. If she can't, I'll ask Jil, just let me know. I feel you on the refferals and what not. I have 0 apps so far, and I hate starting the week off like that, Saturday counted to this week, and I have nothing to show for it so far.

reply

Don't worry. That movie is something we'll end up getting on DVD so we can watch it again and again. I'll make sure to ask my Mom about Saturday. Also I mentioned that we got a PS3 and Amber said they had sold theirs, but had the Silent Hill game if we wanted to buy it for $20. HOLY *beep* Just was checking the Blackhawks news and they didn't sign Niemi!!!! What the *beep* is wrong with the them!?!?!?

reply

I know, I was going to break that bad news to you......

That's cool about the game, if you have the checkbook go ahead and pay for it, if not, we can give her cash tomorrow for it.

reply

I now feel your Theriot pain.....kinda funny how we both were looking for ways to give each the "bad news" on each player. Don't have the checkbook. It's been pretty busy here today. Looking forward to reading tonight. The cubs play the Brewers at 7:05 tonight.

reply

Okay, we'll get the cash for tomorrow then. Been pretty busy here as well. Have you had time to read at work? That's good about the Cubs. We will also have our Nextflix movies tomorrow so yay for that.

reply

Haven't done much reading. That is really good news about the netflix movies. It's been a while since we've gotten them. Sometime this weekend did you want to go visit Jill and Mitch. They're leaving in two weeks.

reply

Oh yeah, I forgot they were going. Yeah, we can totally go over there this weekend. We should probably watch that Indian doc then so we can go ahead and give it to Jil. I have the hiccups, which is not cool when you just have to make calls all day. ;)

reply

I would think not. It's been so steady today. I keep having to do all this busy work, but it is making the day go back. I switch some things around in netflix so when we send the movies back we;ll be getting the Dick Van Dyke movies. So in theory by this weekend we could be having a marathon.

reply

Yay!! That makes me so excited!! I put that our netflix stuff was lost in the mail (which is was) so they are sending us out the new ones! I thought that was pretty cool. We have to finish watching bringing up baby so we can finally send that back.

reply

We can watch that today or tomorrow. Sorry for taking so long to reply. I was busy with some stuff here. Joey is here today and he knows how to do everything he just doesn't know where stuff is, etc. so I've been showing him and picking up the slack. Less then a half an hour to go!!!

reply

Good morning sweetheart. Just wanted to let you know that I forgot my phone at home. If you need to get a hold of me just call my work. How is everything going at home?

reply

Good morning, glad I got to talk to you. That's really stupid about the whole hair thing though, not cool at all. I'm happy to get my car fixed in the morning, it really sounded bad when I was driving to work today. Hopefully with it being so quick they will be able to save the pads and rotors so it won't cost as much. We shall see. Everything going ok for you at work so far?

reply

Everything is fine here. I'm just really mad about my hair. It looks like there's a branch of the jewish religion that takes a vow not to cut there hair for a certain period. Just going to say I converted to that. I'm happy that at least your car is going to get fixed. It's going to be one less then to worry about. Sorry, I'm just really pissed off about my hair.

reply

No, I totally understand, I would be mad about it too. It reminds me of the time we dyed Austin's here for school, and they said we couldn't do it anymore, but it wasn't in the handbook. I was so mad about that. I can't imagine how mad you are though, I know how much you like your hair. It's just so stupid that it is based on one persons opinion.

reply

I'm just going to tell her on Friday that no one has complained about it, that my work is always good, and if need be that I changed my religion. I'd be down with being Jewish. How's everything at work for you? Things are fine here, but there's a bunch of maintance people cleaning the cameras and fixing our microphones.

reply

Things are going fine here, just nothing much going on, and no new leads so that kinda sucks. Everything else is cool though. Just wanting to get through the day, drop my car off, and that's that. You will either need to drive me tomorrow or I will have to take your car to work.

reply

Which ever you'd like to do is fine with me. Tonight we can watch one of the netflix movies if they come. Pop some popcorn and everything. Can you believe it's almost one? The day is flying by.

reply

Yeah I hope that we are able to get those movies tonight. Sorry it had been pretty busy, and I had some interviews today, and then a meeting at 4. Yikes

reply

No worries. You're a sexy business woman that's doing her thing. Did the interviews go well? Things are fine here. Got to do some reading on my lunch so that was nice. Only about three more hours to go.

reply

They went okay, but no apps yet, so that sucks. Can't wait to get home tonight and see you guys of course ;) Have to get ready for my meeting, and I'll be back on about 5 or so, love you!

P.S. Do the cubs play tonight? And did you see the score from last night??

reply

Ohhhh.........it looks like it was 18-1. Ouch....It looks like they're on again at 7:05.

reply

How's everything going?

reply

Everything is going good. Didn't know if it was easier for you to text or talk on the here. Looks like to donate hair to Locks of Love it has to be at least 10inchs long. Good news is that Amber and Nick gave us Silent Hill for free. Looks pretty scary. Are you going to be ready to play tonight? How has everything been going for you?

reply

Wow 10 inches, that's quite long. That's cool about the game, I'm sure you will like it. Yes totally ready to play ;) By the way, do the cubs play tonight?

reply

No they don't so more time for Silent Hill and Sex

reply

Well now that is very true ;)

reply

Good and now it's noon. Only six more hours till fun and then tomorrow is Friday.
