"we're one, but we're not the same"--U2
hey hey
well, finally welcome to the fall and winter of texas, it's only about to be november! so anyway, here is my weekend update!
on friday, i got home, changed, then called shawna and met her and sharla at suzi's for some slushi...i mean sushi. sooo good! i have been craving it and...as a matter of fact, i still am. our waitress was such a b...but anyway, the food was great! then i went to target (of course) and got some things, like the trashcan for my bathroom, toothpaste, a bottle of wine, ya know, the essentials. i came home and watched some sex and the city and drank some wine and went to sleep.
i woke up decently early on saturday because i had to take my car into the shop to get new tires and oil changed. i got out there and some weird guy kept telling me i needed to negotiate the prices, etc, i'm like thanks for the advice, as much as i look like an young idiot girl, i actually went to discount tires for one reason and one reason only, i need 4 new Yokohama YK-420 tires. thankyouverymuch. i appreciated his advice, but whatever, i didn't take it, and why are you even here?! if you're looking for quotes, LEAVE. he was just loitering, crazy. so because i am getting ready to sell the car, i didn't purchase the warranty that basically says if you get a nail in your tire, they'll replace it for free *knock on wood*. so i went to walmart to get the oil changed and 10 minutes after wandering around, they call me back, i thought: "that was quick" but no...they wanted to "talk to me", the girl at the service desk took me outside and said, "oh you got full service, they said you had a nail in your tire." i just looked at her and thought "but i didn't ASK for full service, you shouldn't even be looking at my tires!" and then said "are you kidding me???!? fuck." (and yes, i said fuck to her, b/c in that situation after buying brand new tires 20 minutes earlier, that's the only response which can come out of your mouth) i told her i had just bought new tires 20 minutes earlier and she said "are you serious? well this is you right?" pointing to the name on the sheet, which read "kristin duffy" or something, and i replied with a ridiculous, "um no." as a matter of fact, i had no nail in my tire, just dirty oil...well what was left of it. i'm a bad car owner.
after that, i went to michael's to get some pictures for my house and tried to get something framed, but even with 50% off, it would have cost almost $100, i almost cried, but i bought the print anyway. i went home, ate, watched the rest of season 6 pt 2 of SATC, i cried, i took a nap, i woke up and called shawna and while i was waiting for her i watched the baylor game, yelled and was very passionate about the game...she came over and brought season 1 of laguna beach. what a stupidly, ridiculous, AWESOME show. we also watched the end of the baylor game...oh my bears. bless their hearts. but they played decently i suppose *heart*.
sunday i woke up early and it was puppy day! i looked on the website and noticed molly wasn't on there anymore, so i called and emailed to make sure she would be there b/c i am in waaay NORTH austin and had to go to south austin, and i got 2 phone calls saying that yes, she would be there. so i met my mom and some old friends from saudi who she is finding a house for at IHOP for breakfast. it was good times and then i went to petco to meet molly and i got interviewed and while i was being interviewed the girl told me "just so you know there are 3 other applications on molly and so she's probably been adopted" thanks for letting me know guys, not to mention MOLLY. WAS. NOT. THERE. whatever. they wanted to do a home visit and bring over "some other dogs" but i was like 1. i'm not going to be home and 2. i don't want another dog. foster people are obnoxious. so today i'm going to check on jones the fox at the shelter and hopefully he's still there and i think i'm going to hold him tonight and then get him wednesday...hopefully we will get along! :) *heart* shawna and i went to look at other dogs and accessories at petsmart and i saw a bulldog puppy!!! eeeee! she hadn't grown into her wrinkles at all, she was tooo cute. of course i mention this to my dad who says "look in the paper" i tell him, dad, a bulldog costs more than my furniture ...are you KIDDING me?! whatever. shelter it is.
i went to see my dad after that and hung out at my parents, took a nap, then met shawna and we went to meet sharla and friends/co-workers at chipotle b/c she won 20 free burritos. it was fun and yummy. i think i prefer freebirds though. ah well. still awesome! then i went home, watched the very end of the astros game (aww, bless their hearts) and bed.
it is sooo cold! i was bundled up last night b/c i'm not ready to put on the heater b/c it's still in the 70s outside (or is supposed to be this week) and today i'm wearing grey slacks and a turtleneck and my awesome suede jacket. i feel like i'm back in new york, except i didn't have to walk to work. i almost wore a scarf, but i thought, um no..it's not 50, it is supposed to be 68. not really scarf weather. anyways, i like it. :)
today i a have staff meeting at 12, then going to check out jones, then shawna is going to meet me at the shelter tonight and we're going to start our dog adoption process, heart!
peace out playas
