Long day at work - just leaving Seattle when my phone rings - it's L asking me if I'm almost home - told her I was just leaving. She wanted me to stop by her house and drive her to the Subway so she could get dinner - it was 740 and all I wanted to do was get home so I said No. If you are a regular reader then you know how much L hates to hear that word - she was all pissy - begging - yelling. When she said "why don't you care about me" - I hung up the phone. I haven't heard from her but she posted on her FB - I guess it's no dinner for me. I just so don't have the energy to deal with all this crap.

I Just Need To Vent
What a couple of days. Of course - most of the stress and things that I would like to write about I can't because they are things that happened between 8 and 5 which I'm not able to write about. Insert Tribal Scream here!!!!!!!!!!
Here are a few things I can write about - while I was getting ready to back my car out of its spot in the parking garage last night the person who was parked next to me on the passenger side went to get into their car - it was a tight fit - he saw that I was in my car, it was running and I was preparing to back out. Do you think he moved out of the way so I could move my car which I turn would make it easier for him to get in his car - No - he continues putting stuff in his back sit and then proceeds to get in his car and banging my car with his car door!! Dumb Ass!!!
Things have been really irritating me these days - not sure why - but at this point I either need a long vacation or a high overpass over a very busy freeway. Only thing right now seeming to keep me from the latter is the thought of people going through my house and seeing my cluttery crap. Good reason to keep a messy house for now.
I am headed to bed - early I know - but it is so frickin cold and I just want to snuggle under my blankets and float into oblivion.

A Conversation With L
L and I were talking about football in the car today. I was trying to explain the draft - she thought that more than one team could draft a player and that the player could then choose where he wanted to play. I said no and used Jake Locker as an example saying that I'm sure he would choose to play here and not in Tennessee where he is. She then says "Is he the one that movie was about?". Ummmm . . . No - there wasn't a movie about him. L then says "Then who was The Hurt Locker about?"
I am still laughing!!

Organized Chaos
Nothing like the specter of strangers coming into my house to make me try to organize the chaos around here.
In order to come up to code for the insurance the Home Owners Association carries they have to increase the amount of insulation in the building which requires them to enter through the 3rd floor units. So tonight I was busy moving laundry baskets and other crap out of my room and closet - the entry is in my closet. I moved them all into the guest room. I can't tell you how many times these boxes of crap have been moved!! They just keep getting shuffled from one room to the next - never seem to have enough time to go through them. I set the goal now though - I will get through these boxes one at a time. An item gets pulled out and it either has a spot or it goes in the garbage. I'll keep you posted on how that goes!!
Tomorrow is hopefully the last day of close. It's been long days and Chrissy is really getting irritated with me. I think I may have to spend some quality time with her this weekend - gotta keep her happy so she doesn't pee on my bed again!! Why is it that that's the way pups show their anger! Why can't they just give you the silent treatment!
OK - its late and I need to get up on time tomorrow - take some garbage down to the dumpster, lock the kitties in the bathroom, head off to work.
Don't forget - we get our hour back this weekend!! What will you do with your extra hour on Sunday?

UGH!!
This has been one of those days that just leaves you exhausted.
There of course was basic month end stress. But on top of that I also got to deal with multiple calls from L starting at 930 this morning. That first call was to ask me to check my One Bus Away app to see if her bus was almost there because she was already late to work. As I was opening the app - lo and behold her bus showed up - patience has never been one of her strengths. She then called at 1130 to see if I knew when I was getting off work - yup, it's government check day and was trying to see if I would be able to driver her all over. She then called at 300 and again at 450 then 510 asking me the same question. On the last call she informed me that the Fred Meyer check cashing place is open until 11pm! She called me again at 745 just as I was finally heading out of work. I told her that I was going straight home - it was too late for me to be driving her all over. You guessed it - that did not go over well at all. Instead of whining about how it wouldn't take me that long she changed tactics. She needs money for food - no food in her place and she is so so hungry! The state thinks she makes too much for food stamps now so she's on her own - guessing she forgot to budget that in. My telling her that it wasn't my problem or my fault didn't go over very well - she responded with tears and saying it wasn't her fault either (not sure on that way of thinking). Then there was more crying and heavy sighs and I'm so hungry!
On top of all that - I thought my parking garage let you stay for 12 hours and still get the early bird parking rate - Nope! Only 11 hours - I was 5 frickin minutes past that and had to pay $27 instead of $11!! $3.20 per minute!
Then - turned on the car and my drivers side front high beam popped and was dead - my low on fuel light then came on. I just wanted to go home!
So stopped and got gas then drove by O'Reilly Auto Parts (used to be Schuck's) Yay - they were still open. Went in to buy a new bulb - the cute guy working there helped me find the right one and then asked if I needed help replacing it! That was the best thing that happened all day! He replaced it for me - gave me a smile and I was on my way!
Now I am up letting Chrissy run around - poor thing was in the kitchen for 13 hours today. She was not happy with me when I got home - I tried to give her a hug and get a kiss and she just pushed away from me.
Bedtime now though -
