so I'm sitting here eating a bowl of chocolate frozen yogurt with special dark syrup and whipped crream (being lactose intollerant, ice cream is not an option) thinking how badly stuff sucks sometimes!

basically, went to drive my car tonight when I heard a weird noise. pulled over, looked, the back tire is flat. pull out the ol' air pump, but its not really staying....

so today my boss leaves for his wedding. he won't be around for a few weeks.

however, I asked him how late I could stay (since I'm going to Grad School and all)....his response was "How does the end of July work for you?"

my thoughts "JACKPOT!"

my response was "sure, that works! thanks!"

what I wanted to do!

plus used Office funds to buy...

well, I survived the dentist today.....had to get the tooth drilled out (dental decay, as he put it) and filled (basically, he said more filling than tooth).

included in everything novacaine. mind you, I'm phobic of needles.....to the point where I used to have my cavities drilled without novacaine!

this guy was a good dentist! I did not do any of the following:

-yell
-scream...

it was my sister's graduation (the older one) this weekend from RBI (Rochester Business Institute, a junior college). kind of interesting, think my sister graduated around a 4.0, nominated for "Who's Who Among Students for Junior Colleges"....not bad for someone who struggled to get her Regents Diploma (to the point of going after school everyday for help and everything).

so I get to Rochester Saturday....

it's been a bittersweet week as I look back.

I started off Sunday with my younger sister coming out to visit. it was good in many ways. we talked and chatted and hung out and walked around the area Outlet Mall and I showed her the campus. I lost my sunglasses, but no big deal to me.

On Tuesday, I recieved the unofficial word that...

this past Sunday, my younger sister came up to visit. for her graduation (sorry schoolgirl, if you read this, I didn't do a gag gift) gift, we went shopping at the Outlet Malls here. I gave her a $50 limit. she got measuring cups (graduated, where one cup you can measure a cup, a 1/2 cup, or a 1/4 cup, kind of cool!), measuring spoons...

i seem to have the same caution with requesting friends... however at the same time i am also cautious in accepting friend requests from others who i havent talked to more than a few times y'know... i fell i should at least have posted a few times with said person before accepting their requests... but i dont really like requesting friends lest i have decided that i talk to them at least once or twice a week yknow... and that they comment back when i comment to them... y'know what i mean? cuz so far some of my "friends" i have on here i dont really comment on their journals and they dont to mine... and i dont want to end up having 100 friends that i dont communicate with. eh i dunno but you should check out my journal for today its about the first comment i make to ppl outside of groups.

Oh yea and you should by all means go for the goatee because if you end up not likin it its plenty easy nuff to get rid of.

I wish that singles awarness day wasn't so memorable. But it was...and also very single...tongue

What would be the ideal date for the antithesis of valentine's day??? Probably sometime in the heat of the summer...when everyone is at their "skimpiest"...you know...when it actually feels AWESOME to be single... wink

so I think I finally found a new TV show to watch....let's see if the curse of me continues....

you see, I liked Buffy the Vampire Slayer....cancelled
I liked Angel....cancelled
I liked Babylon-5....cancelled
I liked Farscape....cancelled (boycotted Sci Fi channel for about a year after that!)

I have been relegated to watching wrestling (mostly WWE), Food Network (Iron Chef and Good Eats) and Discovery Channel...

Bench Machine (bench, incline press)
Leg extension/leg curl machine
treadmill
elliptical machine
bike

anyone know of a good workout routine to help get in better shape to use with those? currently, I do the following:

thanks for the advice....yeah, that's all the machines I got here. they do have another gym for the athletes somewhere on campus. the place I go to is in one of the Residence Halls, right next to mine, and I have 24/7 access to it. plus people aren't usually there, so I don't have to wait for stuff!

and yea, starting pretty much from scratch. did some in Grad School, until my roommate snapped. and got discouraged when my dad talked to his doctor about doing sets of 290 for wrist curls.... eeek

but I hit a softball harder than he does! so that's what counts!

yay, all my damage billing is done for my area. 6 buildings. having 6 buildings of mostly female residents (5 of which are all female), while dramatic at times, has brought something nice. less than $3000 in total damages, or less than $10 per resident. by comparison, most schools figure $75 to $100 of damage billing per resident. nice, huh?

I also get to finalize...
