The Deep Stuff

Well this weekend was mellow but fun. I did the old shopping and errand running thing with Mom yesterday. I managed to get a few more Xmas presents squirreled away as well as get them wrapped.

Yes I know I am slightly psychotic, but at least this way the Xmas bills get sliced up into smaller pieces and everything I got was on sale to boot. It also takes a lot of stress out of the whole season and allows me more time to decorate and enjoy the season. I do a lot of cookie and candy making and that is also a busy time at work as well so it is one less thing to worry about. I feel like I am justifying my Christmas freakiness, but people really react weird to my forethought about the whole thing. Alright I will come clean... it really is all about more time for partying and eating and having fun.

Okay, enough rambling about Xmas.

So last night all I did was watch TV and chat with friends via the internet then went to bed early. Boring but true.

Today was fun as well. I had brunch with my Mom and Aunt. Confession time. I pulled a brain dead move. My Mother called last night and left a message on my answering machine about where and when we were meeting. I was so tired that I was completely crashed out when she called and didn't even hear the message even though the answering machine is two feet away from my bed. Well I was still super tired when I woke up and saw I had a message. I played the message and immediately deleted it. DOH!! Big mistake! All I could remember was what city and the word pancakes.

I had to wait for them out side of church, and I got busted by one of the regulars that know my Mom. He dragged me in under the pretense of either being embarrassed outside or inside. The humiliation and embarrassment only got worse. I forgot I was wearing a baseball hat, leather coat, jeans and boots. I walked in and Father "S" gave me a hard time about next time being on time for service and that I could wear a baseball hat and jeans every Sunday so long as I would just show up. 

Kill me... Kill me now.

Luckily, brunch was well worth it. I walked out stuffed and waddling out of there. Went home and had a little nap.

After naptime, I putzed around the house, cleaned and did emails. Then yes, you guessed it, early bed again. All in all a good weekend.

Today's Thank U's

Best Line of The Day:

Out grocery shopping, was telling my Mom I need a cucumber for my eyes and some guy comes up to me and asks why a cucumber for my eyes. So I tell him that the slices on my eyes helps take the puffiness away, and that it was just one of those girl things. He then turns to the woman he was with who was on the other side of the produce department and said:

"Hey honey, lets get a cucumber tonight and do girly things with it!"

As every head turned around and shot him one of those *what the hell kind of freak are you look* I think he realized what that sounded like.


Till next time.
