Happy morning to you all! I was very tired last night, but I stayed up as long as I could watching Futureweapons with Eric. It’s this show on Discovery on which the host drives, flies in, or shoots new weapons that the US military has. Last night was a new episode, but honestly, watching this guy blow stuff up with shoulder-held rocket launchers and such just doesn’t excite me the way it does Eric. So I went to bed about 9:30.
We also went out to eat last night on a date of sorts. Battelle was affected adversely by all the rain. They discovered that the room where the electrical box for the clean room had flooded, so they had to shut it down, thus shutting down the clean room. So Eric came home for a few hours in the middle of the day since everything he had to do required the clean room equipment. Then when I got home, we drove over to Battelle and he restarted his machines (he can run them on our computer at home) and we ate at Bob Evans.
After dinner, we drove over to the Shops on Lane Avenue. I was hoping to exchange some shirts I’d bought at New York & Co. I got them and washed them and THEN realized that I needed a different size. I wasn’t sure they’d let me exchange them, but the manager graciously allowed it this time. I was SO relieved!
Today’s agenda is still up in the air. A bit of grading, lots of laundry, 3 yucky bathrooms, and a car in need of an oil change are all possibilities to fill my time. Wonder which ones I’ll get done?!?
EDIT: So far, I’ve dropped off the recyclables, gotten an oil change, shopped at WalMart while they worked on my car (there was NO ONE else in line when I dropped my car off…it took them 20 minutes, but I shopped for almost an hour!), then to Target to buy a new game for my Nintendo DS with the gift card from Karen’s gift at Christmas. I love free money!: END EDIT
Glad you made it back safely.
I thought my quote was pretty funny, too!
I like Kim’s suggestions since we do have to do the mundane things all the time. But then, you have to grade papers a lot, too, so that could be added to the mundane things! It sounds like your day is going quite smoothly and you’re getting some stuff done. Good luck on the rest of your list!!
You did get your oil changed recently, because it was my motivation to get mine done, which I did shortly after you. I need one again, too, so it makes perfect sense to me that you need one, too.
My bathrooms also need cleaned, but I’m positive you’ve done yours since I last did mine. I’ve been slacking in that area!
I have only MENTIONED getting my oil changed recently…I never actually did it!
Also, I drive 100 miles every day that I go to CU, so I don’t think I ever take 3 months to go 3000 miles. I go the 3000 miles in like 1-1.5 months! And I usually wait until I’ve gone like 5000 miles before getting it changed!
Seriously, you change your oil, clean your bathrooms, and do laundry a LOT! I suggest three completely different activities!
Didn’t you just change your oil? How many miles are you driving?!!
DeWayne likes that FutureWeapons thing, too. I do not. I chose reading some magazines and checking xanga (since I hadn’t been on earlier).
