On boredom, on busy-ness, and "keep that guy away from children"
Good morning to the circle of 5 or 6 people who read my blog.
Got my monitor replaced. While I was at it I upgrade my graphics card AND replaced Stacey's ailing monitor as well. -Sigh- At least everything was on sale. At least Christmas is all paid for by now and Stacey is VERY happy that she, too, has a new monitor.
So, that pretty much took up the time yesterday...traveling to Huntsville to get the stuff, driving back (I know, like I have to do it everyday like most of you guys), unpacking it, installing it, re-arranging the bonus room...at least J-mo offered some help getting the card installed.
Last night it was just me and Kailyn. I left her with JoJo for a brief bit while I ran to Steak and Shake. I was the ONLY car in the drive-thru, and it took me 15 minutes to get my food. Is that normal for them? It was frustrating, either way. Got home, ate, talked to Stacey a bit on the phone, played various PC games, then went to sleep.
It's weird knowing that Stacey's in Houston. It reminds me of the 3+ years we dated long-distance when we were both in school. That was kind of a scary time, that I STILL can't believe we made it through. At least this time, I know that when she comes back she doesn't have to leave again at the end of the weekend.
Anyway, today I hope to get some of that "stuff" done around the house that yesterday hosed up on me. If all goes well, I can start stripping the stain and paint off my kitchen table and knock that out of the way so I can start staining it on Friday.
KEY PHRASES: "What's that sucking noise? Oh, it's just my bank account." "Brian, why don't you tell people what's actually in the mulch first." "Heavy E desperately needs a beer, a beach, and nothing to do."
