Freaky Friday

Monday, January 31st, 2005

We went to Tulsa this weekend to visit Peter’s parents and take Molly to her first hockey game. As we were turning into Peter’s parent neighborhood, we approach 3 police cars, an ambulance and crime scence tape surrounding a house. After we pass by, Peter says, “Was that a body on the driveway covered in [...]

My life is a catch 22.

Friday, January 28th, 2005

Someone asked me tonight, “How do you do it?” How do I work full-time, take care of a 17 month old, work at home on freelance after my 8-5, cook, clean, etc.???

The answer is…

I’m not sure but the cooking suffers, the cleaning really suffers (any housekeeping volunteers?) and I’m going crazy but other than that, [...]

You know you're having a bad day when…

Thursday, January 27th, 2005

It costs more to fill up your car that it did to buy it.

It takes you 3 hours to make Minute Rice.

Your horn sticks on the freeway behind 32 Hell’s Angels.

You put both contacts in the same eye.

You have to borrow from your Visa to pay your Mastercard.

You start to put on the clothes that [...]

How nerdy are you?

A Night on the Town

Sunday, January 23rd, 2005

We hit the town with the Copeland’s Friday night. Well, I guess we just went to Shiki’s but we had a blast! Except for the part about them losing our reservations!!! Watching the immature birthday boy and his teethy fiance at our table kept us entertained. I absolutely LOVE Japanese steakhouses – hibatchi style. I [...]

Another addition to the family

Wednesday, January 19th, 2005

Our new car! Peter has been needing another car for a while now. His old probe was about shot and had 200K miles on it. So today, he brought home a 2003 Subaru WRX and I’m happy to say that it’s here to stay. He got a good deal on it and he is a [...]

Through SICKNESS and health…

Tuesday, January 18th, 2005

The whole family is sick! We’ve got runny noses, stuffy noses, body aches, coughs etc. Molly is on her second round of amoxicillin. She’s doing the best to say the least. Peter is miserable – stayed home from work today. I was sick today but had to work because of a deadline on a project [...]

Where have I been hiding?

Saturday, January 15th, 2005

So, I’ve been neglecting the blog for a few days now. I must apologize. I have been a horrible workaholic lately. I worked all week, 16-hour days. Worked at OC during regular hours and then went home only to work again until about midnight each night on freelance. My new year’s resolution about not working [...]

For the record…

Monday, January 10th, 2005

Let me just say, for the record, that I like Spiderman I and II. I thoroughly enjoyed both movies and I own them on DVD. I like Spiderman II better. Go get em tiger!

The money won.

Saturday, January 8th, 2005

We’re taking the money and running!! The mini-poll was Peter’s choice for his 2nd after-Christmas bonus (for working over Christmas). Although I would like to go on a cruise, I’m sure we’ll have another chance in the future. So, we’re taking the money and we’re going to put a down payment on a car for [...]
