Home Again

Well I got back last night around 10 pm. I was so stiff and tired, that is the downside to flying.The presentation was a big success, so I am very glad that it is over with. YAY!

My sister is back too and I think she took some crab ass pills or something because she has been bitchy all day long. She still hasn't done any of her trip laundry yet and I managed to get all of mine done. she said it was because I was using the drying racks but she has been home since wednesday afternoon and didn't do any of it so she can kiss my butt on that. She spent too much time hanging out with her "best friend" that treats her like shit and owes her over $500 for babysitting her kids this summer. Whatever, her choice not mine, just don't take it all out on me.

I spent most of the morning with her at teacher supply stores helping her laminate posters since the machine at her school is broke right now. I hate those stores because there is a lot of kids, pushy people and judgemental religious people. Plus, it doesn't help that i was wearing my new Kiss coffeehouse t-shirt and my beloved gray cords. I just wanted to get it over with. I love my sister, but we are two very different people. it doesn't help that she hasn't been sleeping very well and she doesn't function without like ten hours of sleep daily.

We are supposed to go see Becoming Jane on her birthday (the 19th) but we will see what happens. If she blows me off to hang out with her stupid friend, I am going to target in Owasso and she can buy her own birthday dinner.

So, now that I am done venting, (i think) let's get on with what else is happening. I had some free time in the evenings, so I spent most of the time at the hotel watching Top Chef Miami on Bravo and reading my Chuck Klosterman books that I had checked out from the library. I am a little sad that I have read all of his books now,but then the September issue of Esquire arrived this morning and there was a feature by him about the Tulsa buried car, so that was like a little treat. I usually take books on business trips because I carry on my luggage and I don't want any of my good crochet supplies to be confiscated. I also had my little shuffle with me which was great because there was a lot of screaming kids on the plane from Dallas to Tulsa on my way home. All you have to do is crank up the Kiss music and all your worries are gone.

I finished several rows on baby L's afghan. the skein is getting smaller and smaller. I am too lazy to count rows right now so I will say that it looks like about two inches or so.

This week will be crazy because we have auditors in town and the company picnic is on Saturday the 18th. A the co worker and I are manning the water balloon toss. I will not be wearing a white t-shirt for sure.

I did check out more books at the library. Pretty much chick lit, because they didn't have anything else that I had been wanting to read. We made a pit stop at BN today too, so I was able to look at some books I had been debating about buying, which is good because there was only one book out of the five that would have actually been worth paying for. I mean, i really don't need to pay $15 for a crochet book with a cheeseburger pattern in it. I can figure that one out on my own.

I also realized that my classes will be starting on Thursday. BOO!!! I hate f-ing homework. I was spoiled these last couple of weeks off from class.
