November 29

Sunday night, back at work. Sigh. At least though it's relatively quiet tonight. School starts back tomorrow so all the little fuckers have to behave themselves. For like the next 2 weeks, then they're off again until after New Years. So that's going to be tons of fun...

So let's see. I got off work Friday morning and it was still raining so I got to drive home in that :-/ There wasn't much traffic at all though, which was nice. TK was awake when I got home so we hung out and played a little Destiny, cleaned up the house a little bit to get ready for Saturday, then played Fallout 4 until TH got home. Hung out with him for a while, made leftover pork roast with mashed potatoes and gravy, made the banana pudding for Saturday, then went to bed kinda early. The cold front blew through around 3:00 or so and it got cold, windy, and rainy. I was kinda glad to just stay home, lol.

November 26

Yeehaw. So it's Thursday night. yay! It's also Thanksgiving, so meh. TH and I both work and all that shit so basically it's just another day. A day that everyone else is off which means that it has been busier than fucking dog shit at work. Sigh. But it's Thursday night, so I'm almost done for the week! And then this Saturday is *our* Thanksgiving. My mom's coming over and we're gonna cook a bunch of shit and it's gonna be fun :-) We bought some chicken breast and pork chops and we had originally thought about grilling them but it's supposed to be cold and rainy. So, maybe not, lol. We'll just have to see.

Ok so, not really much going on this past week. Tuesday morning TK and I started playing Fallout 4 and yeah, I can totally see how people get sucked into it. I likes :-) Wednesday morning I got home and we went to Walmart early to get the stuff we're going to need for this weekend. This morning TK was asleep when I got home but TH was home because he worked a later shift so I hung out with him for a while then went to bed kinda late. I didn't sleep very well for some reason though :-/ Got up around 4:00 or so and hung out with TK for a while then took another quick nap before work. I'm still pretty tired though :-(

November 23

Monday night, yay. Didn't really get a chance to write last night. Dunno why, either. It wasn't particularly busy or anything, I just...didn't, lol. So yeah, There's that.

So let's see. I got off Friday morning and picked TK up from TH's work and we drove up to the funeral home to pick up my dad's ashes. The little road trip itself was nice but everything else was kinda depressing. Got back into town and went by the house to drop everything off then went to Gamestop to return our extra copy of Halo 5. We had every intention of just returning it for cash but at the last minute we decided to go ahead and pick up Fallout 4. I blame peer pressure, lol. The one guy here at work and like half the people in our clan keep talking about how freaking awesome it is. So, yeah. Went by Target to look at toys and stuff, then stopped at HEB and picked up a few grocery type things. Got home and played some Destiny until TH got home, hung out with him for a while and had leftover type things for dinner, then went to bed.

November 19

Thursday night! Yay :-) So let's see. Not really much going on this week. I got home Monday morning and TK was asleep so I just hung out for a while then went on to bed. Monday night it rained off and on all night then about an hour before I got off work the cold front blew through. It got cold and windy and stormed its ass off. So that kinda sucked. TK was up when I got home so we played a little Destiny. The rain quit later in the morning so by the time I left for work Tuesday night it was kinda really cool out. Felt good though :-) Wednesday morning TK was awake again (and it wasn't raining) so we went by HEB to buy the rest of the stupid little stuffed snakes. Cause they're sooooo cute, lol. Got home and hung out for a while then went to bed kinda late. Thursday morning he was asleep so I stayed up for a while and watched another season of Red vs. Blue. Went to bed kinda late so I'm a little tired tonight. Not too bad though. We had leftover pork rib thingies from last weekend so we pretty much ate leftover type things all week. Nom :-)

So I've been talking to my mom and she's been all upset because my brother was supposed to figure out what to do about my dad's ashes and he never has. I think I'm getting a little ahead of myself here though. Ok so apparently my dad was living in some random nursing home in a neighboring state when he died. The funeral home there picked him up and he had enough money in his little nursing home account (or whatever) to pay for a cremation. So that's what they did. We were going to try and see if they would ship the remains here so we didn't have to drive to the neighboring state to pick them up but they didn't want to do that. Apparently though the owner of that funeral home also runs a couple in my state, and the closest one is about a 2 hour drive away. So when he came to do his little monthly check-up visit or whatever, he brought them with him. So they've been sitting there for like a month and a half. My brother was originally supposed to handle it but just kinda played fuckalong with it. Then my sister said she would do it because it was sooooo important to her that he have a real funeral and all that shit. In theory, since he was a veteran, he should be eligible for everything that goes along with that but we don't have any of the paperwork that we need or any easy way to get ahold of it so that was slowing things down too. So basically nobody was doing shit. And I know my mom has been stressing herself out over all of this and it's just not good for her. So I finally got the phone # of the lady at the funeral home who has been handling everything and called her yesterday. Now I'm gonna get off in the morning and make the 2 hour drive up there to pick them up just to fucking get it over with. Yee-fucking-haw...

November 15

Lol ok so I guess I didn't write Wednesday or Thursday night. So let's see. I got home Wednesday morning and TK was asleep on the couch so I kinda poked him and we thought about going to do some of our running around but he was tired and I was tired and it was all humid and gross out since the front hadn't moved through yet so we just said fuck it, lol. I went to bed a little early and got up after TH got home. Hung out with them for a while, had leftovers for dinner, then went to work. By then the front had moved through and we never really got any rain but it had cooled down a lot. So that was nice :-)

Wednesday night at work was quiet. Got home Thursday morning and TK was awake so we went to Walmart to pick up a couple of things then went by the DPS office to get his ID card. We got there right after they opened and there was already a huge line because they were having computer problems. So since I had to work that night and didn't want to sit there all freaking day we said fuck it and left. Got home and played some Destiny for a while, went to bed kinda late, and slept til almost time to go to work. Sonic was doing buy one, get one free wings so TH stopped by there on his way home and picked some up. Nom :-)

November 10

Sooooo, let's see. Not really much going on yesterday so I wasn't too bummed when I didn't get a chance to write. I got home Monday morning and TK was asleep so I hung out and chatted with TH for a while before he went to work (because he goes in late on Monday mornings), watched a little Hulu, then went to bed kinda early. Got up earlyish and hung out with TH and TK until time for work. I had kinda planned on fixing something for dinner but they both ate chili before I got up so fuck em, lol. I still had leftover pizza from Sunday :-P Work was nice and boring and uneventful, which is always nice :-)

This morning I stopped by Walgreen's on my way home to pick up my medicine. Cause drugs are good, mmmkay? XD Got home and TK was asleep again so I chatted with TH at work for a while, cleaned up the kitchen, and went to bed around 10:00 or so. Got up at like 6 and made some macaroni and cheese to go with the last of the leftover chicken for dinner. Nom :-) Hung out with TH and TK until time to come to work and now I'm here. Yeehaw, lol.

November 8

Sunday night, back at work. Yay, lol. It's nice and cool out tonight :-) It kinda rained off and on Friday and Saturday but it's pretty much all dried out by now. We never did get the serious stuff like they were calling for but that's cool. I wasn't really ready for another round of hiding out in the bathroom with 7 nervous cats anyway, lol.

So let's see. Got home Friday morning and TK and I started on the Black Ops 3 campaign. We only made it through the first 4 or 5 missions but so far I'm liking it. We were pretty tired after that so we took a nap and TH woke us up when he got home. Made wings and fries for dinner, watched the newest Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., then hung out with TH until he went to bed. Hopped on and played a little Destiny with a couple of our clan buddies and went to bed around 3:00 or so.

November 5

Okey dokeys. Nothing really going on yesterday so I didn't bother writing. Basically just went home Wednesday morning and hung out for a while, went to bed, got up kinda early and played a little more of the Halo 5 campaign with TK, then came to work. We had leftover chicken and rice stuff so I didn't bother cooking. So that was super duper exciting, lol.

Last night at work though, was kinda interesting. It rained off and on all night but never really got heavy or anything. There was one little thunderstorm right before I got off work so I got to drive home in a little bit of a mess. That was fun, lol. Oh, and I found a freaking rattlesnake! I walked outside and it was just...sitting there. It wasn't very big but it was a little freaky, lol. I called my buddy up at the clubhouse and he came down and helped me move it. We ended up flipping it over into a box with a coathanger and tossing it out into the woods. So that was my excitement for the night :-)

November 3

So, not much going on today. Got home and TK was asleep so I chatted with TH for a while then went to bed. Got up around 4:00 or so, made some banana bread, hung out with TH for a while, then took another quick nap before work. And now I'm here, lol. We still had leftover chicken so we had that for dinner. If I have the stuff for it I might make an enchilada casserole with some of it for tomorrow night. Just need to poke around in the pantry and see what all's in there, lol.

It was super foggy Monday and Tuesday morning and they're calling for more of the same in the morning. Definitely makes the drive home interesting :-/ Right now I think it's supposed to start raining either Wednesday night or Thursday morning and it looks like it's gonna be more of what we got last weekend. So this should be fun...

Noms for the day: MFP.

Song: Cowboy Mouth - Jenny Says. I likes :-)

Best thing: So yesterday was another chance to get the Black Spindle in Destiny but I didn't have a chance to do it. TK took my guy in and got it for me :-)

Worst thing: Ok so I had to change my tire yesterday, right? Well now I am so freaking sore it's not even funny. It was a bitch and a half to get the lug nuts broken loose >:-(

Yay.

November 2

Hey, check it out...2 in a row! So I totally forgot about this last night but when I went out to leave for work I discovered that my car had a flat tire. Like, a seriously flat tire. My tire pressure light had come on last Thursday or so and I kept meaning to get it checked out but never did. So yeah. Super flat. Luckily it was Sunday night so I was able to just take TH's car instead of having to mess with changing it. A while back TH's schedule got changed a little bit so that on Monday mornings he goes in at 9:30 instead of 6:30 like the rest of the week. It was all confusing and shit but something to do with being able to stay late a couple of days when they didn't have anyone else to work without it being overtime. Or something like that. So since I would be home before he had to go to work I just took his car. Got home this morning and tried to just air it up to drive it over to the tire place but apparently it was seriously fucked so I had to change it. Le sigh. TH went on to work and when he got off he came by to get my car and take it to the tire place. Cause he's awesome :-) So the good news is that we ended up putting a whole new set of tires on it. Which it really needed since it's a 2011 with like 55,000 miles and those are the original tires. The bad news is...holy fucking shit tires got expensive! They were "only" about $80 each but out the door was about $525! I did get the road hazard/replacement warranty thing though so if they crap out I can get them replaced. So yay?

Oh yeah, so we've been watching football this season! We used to watch it all the time but the last couple of years we just kinda got away from it. So that's what TH and I (and sometimes TK) do on Sundays now :-)

So other than that, not really much going on. I threw some split chicken breast in the crockpot this morning and made some rice to go with it for dinner tonight. I ended up staying up until like noon today so I'm a little tired tonight. Not too bad though. We took down a few of the Halloween decorations but the giant spider was still pretty wet. Hopefully he'll be dry enough to take down tomorrow because it's supposed to start raining again sometime Wednesday or Thursday and rain all weekend. Again, lol. So we'll see...

Noms for the day: MFP. Yay, lol.

Song: Fall Out Boy - Uma Thurman. A new one :-)

Best thing: Yay for new tires!!

Worst thing: Boo for new tires being so expensive!!

Woohoo.

November 1

Wow. Ok I kinda hadn't realized it had been quite this long since I had written anything. So, yeah. We're all still alive and well and all that good stuff, so yay! TH's birthday was in September so we made him some birthday brownies and bought him a couple of little stuffed Star Wars critters. We just did Halloween last night and that was a lot of fun. Yay for sitting on the porch with vodka gummy bears handing out candy! Um, let's see. We played the betas for the new Gears of War, Black Ops 3, Star Wars Battlefront, and it seems like there was something else but I don't remember. They were all pretty entertaining. Halo 5 came out October 27th so we bought that and we've been playing it a little bit. A new expansion for Destiny came out September 15th and that's been tons of fun. Black Ops 3 comes out next Friday (the 6th) and as long as Target doesn't fuck anything up, I have the Juggernog Edition preordered. So that's gonna be freaking awesome! It's rained its ass off for the last 2 weekends, making this the wettest October we've had in like, forever. We ended up with just over 8" at the house each time. And they're calling for more rain next weekend. Lol, it's either drought or flood here. We've had like 5 new people at work in the last couple of months. They keep getting hired, lasting like a week, and quitting. So we've been super shorthanded which means lots of overtime. Like, LOTS of overtime. I think I've had 3 stretches of 12 days straight. So I'm kinda tired. The paychecks have been awesome, though :-) Oh, and my boss buddy quit to move back home :-( I still talk to him and we play together and everything but I kinda hated to see him go. The guy who took over as boss is nice enough though so it's not too bad. Hmmm. I'm still (mostly) on my meds and doing alright. Yay! Can't seem to really keep it together with the tracking and trying to lose weight though. I'll do great for a while and then it just kinda falls apart. Le sigh. I'll get there eventually...

Ok well, giant wall of text but whatever. So now all I need to do is make sure I don't wait another 2 months to write again, huh? Yeehaw.
