Tuesday: another long day

Well, today I again worked some extra hours so I can leave early tomorrow. I got my program that I've been working on up-to snuff. There is one more thing I might have to do to it, but it should be easy to implement because I already figured out how to do it for a different reason. Hmm. I was trying not to go into too much detail there and it might have failed the other way. Needless to say, I'm excited about it.

I also overheard some people talking about a co-worker. Which made me wonder, what do people say behind my back? Because it's foolish to think that you aren't talked about.

Ben left work before I did because his server was down, and he was making dinner by the time I got home. Yay food! I brought in donuts to work this morning. I was relieved so see that no one else had brought food in. Yay donuts! Ben is jealous of my donut infatuation so I got him a special one to show him that I was thinking about him even when I was thinking about donuts.

Monday

I woke up today and there was about 3" of snow on our back deck! It was beautiful.


Then Dale, who has a car that isn't working so well, messaged me at work saying "I hope you're happy"
Me: "Yeah! I took a picture of the backyard this morning."
Dale: Me too. Then I scrapped the car.
Me: !!What?
Dale: Oh, I mean scraped.
Me: :)

Hmm. Nothing else special seemed to happen right today. A ton of people are gone because of Thanksgiving and the rest seem to be almost on break. Ben and I are trying to work a few extra hours so we can leave early on Wednesday, but it is hard. I was the last one at work and I'm never the last one there.

Oh, and I love hot showers. They warm me up so well.

Sunday

Well, this morning we visited a church for the second time. It was okay...things I like, things that are ok. I feel so homeless Sunday mornings without a church. Then we went to get our hair cut and a Christmas tree. The new fad is apparently "Pre-lit" trees. Which is great and all, but (1) they are about twice as expensive and (2) what do you do when they burn out? That gave us two options: a 6.5' for $40 or a 7' (and a bit wider) for $100. We kind of wanted something even taller but in the end decided that 6" wasn't worth $60. It will still be Christmasy.

Saturday

Well, it was a pretty normal Saturday. We did some chores, played a lot of Warcraft. There is a new instance that we've been enjoying. I want to start blogging more. It's like a journal. Almost. Close enough at least to help me remember things.

This is Amalle (my character) in Warcraft. We're in the instance I mentioned above. I mainly included this so I would have a picture.

Test

I'm still thinking about going to this format for blogging. Does it put pictures in easily?

/edit: I decided to go with Blogger instead of LiveJournal...here's the link to the old journal if you're interested: http://ahilldore.livejournal.com/
