How are you spending your weekend?

I'm cracking the whip to make the ex clean the house for the birthday party tomorrow (since I'm on bed rest) and trying to find a ride to the GD store.

Also, I'm bored out of my mind. And my arms are tired from beating the drum to keep the slaves in sync.

What are you guys doing? Anything fun? :-D

 

Actually, it's 2:00 a.m down-under, so I guess I'll be hitting the sack...'Night all.:wave:zzz
Work and all that jazz tomorrow. Laying CAT6 cables - easy, but hard on my old back!

 

Nah nothing fun,chatting with Timw ATM comparing each other lives to see who has it worse...

Just bought Red Dead Revolver for the PS3,role playing in the wild west!Awesome! I know stereotypical,cliche,geeky thing to be doing but its all I got

One day one of these threads will come round and I'll be actually doing something fun and interesting,that day will be epic winnage...

 

Today I am whiny and irritable and shouldn't be around other people. The Darvocet makes me stupid, but it hurts like mad without it.

Tomorrow, however, is a friend's birthday, so I'm leaving the pills at home and heading out to our local tavern to celebrate with him. That should be lots of fun! :-D

 

Woo hoo, now you're ME!!!

Other than the cleaning, I've been playing world of warcraft. Im working on an in game achievement called "Insane in the Membrane" which gives you the title "the insane." There was never a more appropriate title for a person EVAR.

 

roflmao It's not too far off from normal for me, either!

 

I have no idea what to name 3.0.. it wont tell me what the hell it is and im 2 sec from naming it Leslie Pat.

*shudder*

 

TWO wenchies!?!?

Oustanding! Bring on the party props! :-D

I was at work all day today, up until the point I logged on here and started posting. Plans for the rest of the day include playing with my new nail polish toys, eating dinner at some point in my very near future, and play more video games. :major

 

I lost my edit button...

Another thing I did today was to stop at the Sally Beauty shop near my house (inspired by Abby's links in this thread). I didn't actually buy any foundations of that brand after all, though I did drool and pine for their gorgeous baked bronzers and bright eyeshadows (must return soon to loot the eye shadow display!), and eventually ended up buying a bunch of manicure toys and tools and nail polishes.

While I was picking out little bottles a woman was arguing with the girl behind the counter about returning something. Sally, for those of you not familiar with that store, has a very unforgiving and strict return policy for all electrical items. Never, ever, ever get rid of your Sally receipt if you buy something electrical there. Never. This woman did... she claimed she didn't keep it because she something this expensive should work, so she shouldn't have to keep the receipt. Expecting her to keep it until she had verified that the flatiron works by using it at least once was apparently completely unreasonable. rolleyes

The girl behind the counter politely told her that she can't return the flat iron for refund without a receipt but she can of course get a warranty replacement. The woman doesn't like that and gets rude and irate; the girl stays calm but won't compromise the policy either. F-bombs soon start flying, at which point the girl behind the counter tells the customer to "watch your language, there are other customers in the store". This prompted more f-bombs and even a b-word, at which point the girl very sternly asks the woman to leave the store.

I have now learned, form observation, that the doors at the Sally Beauty store near my house are too high-tech to be slammed, no matter how hard you try. LOL

 

roflmao roflmao This is the best I heard/read today. You made my day Mimsy!

 

Let see I spend how I spend my saturday..

I woke up, walked around on my hurt knee (hurt it at the track on friday), got hit on by an creepy man, went home, went to an out door concert, went to a restaurant where ate ice cream, the most delicious chili cheese fries and shared some laughs, went home, cried and watched the end of a movie.. it's been a very eventful day :-D

 

I'm working . . . grrrrr. Overtime even. If this keeps up the sun will come out before I have a chance to get safely indoors! :-D

 

Do you at least get paid overtime?

 

Yes, I do - or we can take it as comp time. I'm lazy, though, and am a creature of the night

 

Friday night is my Monday morning. I work three 12 hour shifts, that's my weekend :cry Come Monday morning, well, I'll sleep about 12 hours, then start my off days full of job hunting and wasting time at the Omelet Shop guzzling coffee and chain smoking Camels while online or gaming :cry lol

 

It's Sunday afternoon in India. Had the cookie prep the kitchen for me. Cooked "Dal makhni" and Tandoori Chicken. While having a screwdriver (or two)! The Dal takes over an hour on slow heat!!
I cheated and cooked the Chicken on an electric barbecue as opposed to a coal tandoor. Then I switched to a couple of Bloody Marys (extra Tabasco, salt and crushed ice) Yum!!

And am now ready to gobble and catch some Zzzzz..

Cheers.. Hic.. hic

 

Uhg, just to whine I had another pretty phenominal attack last night, in the middle of the night, that took 3 showers, a bath, tylenol, medicine and all kinds of you don't wanna know what else to feel better...

And yet, I was up at 6:30am wrapping presents and putting together goody bags. I am super mom, RAWR!

Uhg, I hate birthday parties. The children are insane waiting for it, we're insane trying to get ready for it, and then all that nonsense for an hour or two of people eating our food and messing up our house just to have to clean it all up.

She's 10, they stop caring pretty soon or just go to the mall with friends, right?

 

haha wenchie!! unlucky just remember to cut the cake so there are plenty of spares :yum :-D and next year, suggest a movie party... that at least keeps them all in one room, and fairly quiet

i've spent today out with my local flash mob :-D mass pillow fight in the museum gardens roflmao at the police man i think it was all a bit much for him :-D

 

he was a bit shocked cos the security at the museum had told us it wasn't allowed, but y'know how it is... 1 pillow flew then everyone was at it :-D they called the cops on us, but it was a 5 min 'flash' so by the time enough had arrived to make a difference we'd packed up an gone home LOL heres a better pic of the action :-D

 

That sounds like a lot of fun. They had one here not so long ago in Clinton Square, but I wasn't lucky enough to participate.

I survived the birthday party!

 

I woke up completely able to walk, and have taken not so much as an aspirin for pain all day! On to the birthday debauchery! LOL

 

No painkillers means you can have drinks with us! :wine <-melon martini

On to the party!! :dancer

 

Exactly! The poor boy isn't going to know what hit him. He's considerably younger than me and under the impression I'm actually a girl.

:wine <--Vegas bomb. :-D

 

Doesn't he know that once we have gone through puberty we become "women"? :confused
