Today is going much better then yesterday. Yesterday I was driving to work and this happened to my glasses.
I drove to work thanking God that it was daylight. I can see the cars but not read the signs. But when you've made that trip every weekday for the last 2 3/4 years you kind of just know where things are at. Well I didn't need to read the sign that said "4th St Exit 1 mile", I already knew it was coming up. hehe I spent the morning staring 6 inches from my screen to see what it said. I finally had Sam help me change the resolution on my two monitors, I tried to do it but couldn't figure out why my two monitors wouldn't go lower in resolution without skewing the view too horribly to read. So I did what I could until the Frame Doctors opened up at 10am. I've used them before and they have done an excellent job soldering my frames before. Yes, I've had to use them before. I guess I'm rough on my frames. ;) But with Christmas coming up I can't really spend 165.00 on new frames just yet. Sam was nice enough to drive me to the place and get my glasses fixed.
I get back to work and everything went to hell in a handbasket! Work was just not going right. I had issues with upper management all day. I eventually left the office at 6pm to go home, had a chat with Rachel for a bit, showered, read the final couple chapters of Magician's Nephew and then crashed!
Tonight I'm going over to my sisters. She's having one of those jewelry parties. Also her DSL should be up and running today so I am going over to set that up for her. I have to be in bed EARLY because I have to wake up at 3am to get ready and meet Sam down at work so I can take him to the airport! Friday is going to be a LONG day. I haven't decided if I'm going to try to leave work early so I can get home to pack (I'm leaning towards that idea), or going to Sam's and taking a nap waiting for the Vegas traffic to die down. We'll sse how I feel I guess.
Ok so updates: It's going to be a busy month!
EVENTS IN NOVEMBER:Beach Terrace Inn - 11/5/05 to 11/6/05 - So this weekend I'm hangin with the ladies of the church. We're all driving down to Carlsbad for a couple nights at the Beach Terrace Inn. A family in the church stays at this place quite often and there's an annual
Carlsbad Village Fair that they think we'll all enjoy. It'll be nice to get away for the weekend. I'm hoping to have time to journal and take pictures but this trip is all about building relationships, and well journaling and taking pictures is very singular I doubt I'll get away with it. hehe But I'm sure I'll have fun.
Depeche Mode Concert - 11/21/05 - I'm absolutely excited about seeing Depeche Mode again! I've been listening to their new album "Playing the Angel" pretty much non-stop when I'm in my car. I bought tickets for Rachel, Heidi and Sam to go with me. They are all free to help out but I have no intention of making them pay for their tickets. Sam and I will be at work that day so Rachel and Heidi are going to drive down and meet us at the office and we'll make our way to the Staples Center for the show. YAY!
Thanksgiving - 11/23/05 to 11/28/05 - My brother, sister, her two kids and myself are driving out to Montana during Thanksgiving weekend. My cousin is getting married that Saturday, my grandparents celebrate their own wedding anniversary that same weekend and well it's Thanksgiving. All good reasons why to make a 24 hour drive out to see them all. My neice and nephew haven't been out there since they were just wee little things. So that should be an adventure. We're planning on driving Wednesday night, through Thanksgiving day to arrive late thanksgiving night. We should be able to relax Friday and the wedding is Saturday at 7pm. My dad is going to marry them so my parents already had plans to fly out. Then Sunday we'll get back on the road back home. I took Monday off so we don't have to leave after the wedding. I'm actually kind of interested to see how it works out. Sam has said I can use his Nintendo DS and I'm actually going to buy a game called Trace Memory that looked really interesting.
That's it so far. I'm hoping not to have to add anything else to my schedule. I'm sure I'll have pictures of each event. And they'll most likely be posted next year sometime. ;) hehe Well I'm going to enjoy the rest of my lunch break.
