November 30

Sunday night, back at work. And thank FSM it is nice and quiet again, just like it should be. For another couple of weeks, at least. Then everyone will be out for Christmas break and it will be annoying again. Sigh. Guess I better enjoy it while it lasts. It was hot again today and it's still pretty warm and humid tonight but there's supposed to be a front moving through tomorrow that will cool it back down for a couple of days. So that will be nice.

So let's see. Got home Friday morning and TK was asleep so I chatted with TH at work for a while then took a nap. Got up and hung out with TK for a while then after TH got home we went ahead and made the pies for Saturday. 2 lemon and 2 chocolate - nom :-) TK's buddy was coming over to spend the night so TH stopped by Papa Murphy's on his way home and picked up a couple of pizzas. We had dinner and TH and I watched about half of a movie then went on to bed. The boys stayed up pretty much all night playing.

November 27

Happy Thanksgiving!! Yay! Woohoo. Lol. And holy fucking shit it is finally Thursday night. This has been the longest week ever. Seriously :-/ It's a little cool again tonight but it's supposed to warm up to almost freaking 80 this weekend. That's way too hot for right now.

So let's see. Got home this morning and TK was asleep so I chatted with TH at work and went to bed later than I really should have. Again :-/ Woke up kinda early and played a little GTA V and Xbox One Minecraft with TK until TH got home. He brought home some stuff that the clubhouse at his work gave him for dinner so I have a nice little container of noms for later. Nom :-) Hung out with him until time to come to work and now I'm here. Traffic was ridiculous because all kinds of places decided to open late in the day Thanksgiving instead of waiting until early morning on Black Friday. You know, so people can GO SHOPPING!!!!11!! Whatever, dude. I don't get it.

So other than that, not much going on. We don't have to go take care of the kitties in the morning because they're opening super early for Black Friday so the lady who runs the rescue group is going to do it before they open. Saturday we're going to cook but I'm still not sure if my mom is coming over or not. I kinda want her to but I kinda really don't want to have to go pick her up and then take her home since she lives like 30 miles away. So we'll see.

Noms for the day: Nope, not yet.

Song: John Williams - Jurassic Park Theme. Random shuffle :-)

Best thing: THURSDAY NIGHT!!!!!

Worst thing: Busier than fucking dog shit here at work :-/

Eh.

November 26

Holy shit, make it stop. I am seriously so freaking tired of people already that I could just strangle someone. Or a bunch of someones, lol. It has been unbelievably busy here at work tonight. I'm hoping that maybe tomorrow night will be better but I kinda doubt it. Sigh. At least after tonight I only have one more night for the week. Yay? And too everything after midnight tonight is holiday pay so they can just suck it, lol.

So I stopped by HEB on my way home this morning thinking that I could get in and out of there before it got busy. Well apparently everyone else in town had the same fucking idea because it was crazy busy >:-( But I got everything we need for the weekend, so yay! Got home and TK was asleep so I stayed up and chatted with TH for a while. Went to bed later than I really should have and woke up around 3:00 or so. Got up and hung out with TK for a while, played a little GTA V, and made tater tot casserole for dinner. One of TH's guys quit today so he ended up having to stay until 7:00 and he has to do the same thing again tomorrow :-/ At least it's overtime/holiday pay? He finally got home and I hung out with him until time to come to work. And that's pretty much it.

Noms for the day: Nope.

Song: The Offspring - The Kids Aren't Alright. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Chatted with my neighbor buddy for a while this morning :-)

Worst thing: Tired :-/

Woohoo.

November 25

And, not much going on again today. Cool again tonight but busier than fuck here at work. Sigh. And so it begins. Soooo many people here to spend the weekend and kids with nothing better to do than run in and out all night. I'm already ready to go home, lol.

Got home this morning and TK was asleep so I chatted with TH at work for a while then went to bed kinda early. Woke up at like 12:30 and couldn't go back to sleep so I got up and hung out with TK. Played a little GTA V with him, cleaned up the kitchen, hung out with TH when he got home, then took another quick nap. We basically did leftover type stuff for dinner. And now I'm at work. I think I'm going to stop by HEB on my way home in the morning to pick up anything we need for this weekend. Because I definitely do not want to be out anywhere any longer than I have to until after the weekend is over and everyone goes back to work and shit. :-P

Noms for the day: Nope.

Song: Milky Chance - Stolen Dance. A new one this time.

Best thing: Saw a deer on my way to work! I see lots of coyotes out here but not too many deer so that was cool :-)

Worst thing: Feeling Blah :-/

Yay.

November 24

Not much going on today. Cooler tonight and a little busier here at work but not too bad. Got home this morning and TK was asleep so I chatted with TH at work for a while and went to bed around 9:00 or so. Woke up when TH got home and hung out with them for a while then went to World Market because they had coffee syrups on sale, plus I had a coupon for $10 off if you spent $30. So basically I got 6 syrups for $20 :-) I also found some more of the kitty cat wine! They had gold, silver, and the black one that I had looked for at Halloween. They're so freaking cute! Ahem. Stopped by Petco really quick to pick up some gravel for the aquarium here at work then grabbed some Whataburger to take home for dinner. Got home and watched an episode of Chuck with TH then hung out with TK until time to come to work. And that's pretty much it, lol.

Noms for the day: Nope.

Song: Nelly - Air Force Ones. Random shuffle again.

Best thing: Kitty cat bottles of wine!!!

Worst thing: Kinda tired.

Yay.

November 23

Sunday night, back at work. It was really warm today - in the low 80's in most places, but there's a front moving through tonight that should cool things back down. Not super cold like a couple of weeks ago, but nice and fall-like for the next week or so :-) This Thursday is Thanksgiving so the school district out here where I work is taking the whole week off. So far tonight it's been pretty quiet but I'm thinking it will get busier as it gets later in the week. Should be fun, lol.

So let's see. Got home Friday morning and TK was awake so we went to take care of the kitties early. Finished up there and went by Walmart to pick up a couple of things. Got home and played some GTA V until TH got home then hung out with him for a while. Had fish and fries for dinner and watched the new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and a couple of episodes of Chuck. TH went to bed and TK and I stayed up playing for a while. It started raining after TH got home and pretty much rained off and on most of the night. Nothing serious though, which was good.

November 20

Thursday night!! It's not as cold again tonight but it's rainy and foggy and gross. I think it's pretty much supposed to stay like this through Sunday. They're calling for something like a 40% chance of rain tomorrow and then 100% chance Saturday. Oh, and a "possibility of severe storms and/or flooding". Great...

So let's see. I got busy last night and didn't get a chance to write but there really wasn't much going on. Got home Wednesday morning and hung out with TK for a while, slept until after TH got home, had macaroni and cheese and chicken for dinner, then went to work. We were going to take Naga in for her ear surgery the next morning so she wasn't allowed to have food or water after 10:00. She ended up spending the night in the gameroom with TK :-) And that was pretty much it.

November 18

Kinda tired again tonight but not too bad. It's a little busier at work but warmer out so that helps. It's supposed to be cold again by morning and then warm up some for the next week or so. Eh, whatever, lol.

TK was awake when I got home this morning so we played some of the new GTA V! I was really disappointed to see that apparently they did not add animals to online like we were expecting. Sigh. At least not yet, that is. There's supposed to be another update coming out in the next week or so, so maybe they'll be in there? They added a bunch of new animals and stuff to single player though so that's cool. We have kitties now!! Ahem. Anyway, played with TK for a while then went to bed kinda late. Woke up around 6:00 and made wings and tater tots for dinner, then cooked some chicken breast I had thawed out so we already have dinner ready for tomorrow night. Yay, lol. Hung out with TH and TK until time to come to work. And that's pretty much it for the day.

Noms for the day: Nope nope nope.

Song: Foo Fighters - Something From Nothing. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Kitties in GTA!!

Worst thing: Kinda tired again.

Okey dokeys then.

November 17

Holy crap I'm tired tonight. Pretty slow here at work again so at least that's something. It's actually a little colder tonight than it was last night but there's no wind so it doesn't feel as bad. I think this is the last really cold night for a few days until the next front moves through early next week. Or something, lol.

So let's see. TK was asleep when I got home this morning so I chatted with TH at work for a while then went to bed around 9:00 or so. Woke up at 1:00 and couldn't fall back to sleep so I got up. TK and I went to Walmart to look for a couple of things we need to get some special edition gear for COD Advanced Warfare. Hey, it looks cool :-P Of course though they didn't have anything we needed. Got home and I went to take our kitty Naga (the fuzzy black and white one) to the vet to get checked out. She's had this ear thing or something for a little while now but it really seems to be bothering her lately. They're pretty much just a walk-in type place so I ended up being there for about 2 hours because they were super fucking busy. Sigh. Finished up there and got home, ate some leftover chili cheese tater tot stuff, then kinda took a quick nap. And now I'm at work. Yay.

November 16

Sunday night, back at work. It's super fucking cold and windy as shit out there, which is not fun. At least it's not very busy so I can spend most of my time inside. So that helps, at least. Today is also TK's birthday, even though we did the whole birthday thing Saturday. So he's officially 15 now. Wow...

So let's see. TK was asleep when I got home Friday morning so I took a quick nap then we went to take care of the kitties. Finished up there and went by Target to get stuff for his birthday and look around for a little bit. Went up to the security office again because I had ordered some new shirts last week and they finally showed up. Stopped by Gamestop to sell one of our old iPhones. We ended up getting like $95 in store credit so we bought a charging dock for the Xbox One controllers, a Black Ops 2 phone case for TK's phone, and $50 in gift cards for the Xbox store so we could preorder GTA V. Got home and played a little COD until TH got home then hung out with him for a while. Watched an episode of Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. and had Hot Pockets for dinner. TH went to bed and TK and I stayed up for a while playing Halo and stuff.

November 13

Thursday night! A little busier here at work but not too bad. It's actually a little bit colder right now than it was last night but the wind has died down so I'm not freezing my butt off. So yay! Tomorrow morning is supposed to be the coldest it's been so far but then they're calling for a slight chance of rain and a little warmer over the weekend. So we'll see what happens. I really, really need to go drive at least Saturday night since I haven't done it in almost a month :-/ I think TK's buddy is planning on spending the night then so that actually works out well.

So basically not much going on again today. TK was asleep when I got home this morning so I stayed up for a while chatting with TH at work then went to bed. Woke up around 7:00 or so, hung out with them for a little while, and now I'm at work. I had planned on making chili cheese tater tots with the leftover chili but everyone had already eaten something by the time I got up. So probably tomorrow night, I guess. Dunno.

Noms for the day: Nope. Hopefully though I can get my shit straightened out this weekend and get back on track!

Song: Natalie Imbruglia - Torn. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Found out that my boss (the one who is kind of an asshole) is leaving. Next Friday will be his last day. I dunno, I really tried to like him but he's basically just a douchebag. So at least work will be a little more pleasant after next week :-)

Worst thing: Headache again :-/

Okey dokeys then.

November 12

Not much going on today. It is still windy out tonight and seriously cold! I actually brought my jacket with me tonight because I froze my ass off last night every time I stood outside for too long chatting with people. It was 39 when I left for work and I think they're calling for low 30's by morning. We're under a freeze warning for tonight and tomorrow night so that should be fun. And, there's a little bit of precipitation trying to develop in the area that might turn into freezing rain later tonight! Awesome :-/

So I got home this morning and TK was asleep but he woke up before I went to bed so we played for a while. The crockpot of beans was done so I turned it into chili and left it to simmer all day. It turned out nicely :-) Went to bed around 12:30 or so, got up at 8:00, took a shower, hung out with TH, and now I'm at work. Yay, lol.

Oh yeah. So at home we have a couple of random stray kitties hanging around outside that we feed every day. Well, I think some of them actually kind of have homes but they're always sooooo pitiful and hungry so...yeah. TH says I'm a sucker, lol. One of them though I'm almost sure really is a stray. She used to be really skinny but since she's been eating regularly she looks a lot better :-) She's a fuzzy little black kitty with white feet and a white chest, so she basically looks like a smaller version of our kitty Naga. We call her Squeakie because when she talks to us she has this tiny little squeaky meow. She's so cute :-) I kinda think she's trying to move in because she's started hanging out on the porch. We can't quite pet her yet but she lets us get a little closer every day. Sooon, lol. I was worried about her getting cold so before I left for work tonight we set up a plastic tote with a blanket out on the front porch for her to sleep in. I hope she finds it!

Noms for the day: Almost, maybe?

Song: Linkin Park - Hit The Floor. Random shuffle again.

Best thing: I got to see one of my other cop buddies earlier tonight! He's the one who transferred to a different department so I haven't seen him in like a month or so. So that was cool :-)

Worst thing: Headache, kinda.

Woohoo.

November 11

Ohhhh man. Kinda tired again tonight but not as bad as I thought I would be. And yep, they weren't kidding. It got freaking cold today, lol. It's like, 39 right now. I like it though :-) It probably wouldn't be quite as fun if I had to stand outside for the whole 8 hour shift but just running in and out all night like I do it's not too bad. I didn't even bother digging out my jacket. TH did insist that we turn on the heater at the house but by the time I left for work tonight it still hadn't come on yet. It's set for 70 and the house was still holding at 72. It's apparently pretty well insulated, lol.

So I stopped by HEB on my way home this morning to buy some dried beans. I had planned on starting a crockpot of beans last night to turn into chili for dinner tonight but the beans I had at home were...kinda gross :-/ I didn't think dried beans would really go bad but they just didn't seem right. So I tossed them and bought some new ones. Got home and TK was still awake so we played some Halo! And it was awesome :-) We played a couple of Halo 2 campaign missions and tried to play a little multiplayer but apparently they're having server issues right now. So that kinda sucked. They're working on it though so hopefully it will be up and running soon. I'm really liking what we've been able to play so far :-) Played that for a while, played a little COD AW, then went to bed around 1:00 or so. Got up at 7:30, hung out with TH for a while, started the beans (lol), and now I'm at work. Yay?

November 10

Holy crap I'm tired tonight. Nice and quiet at work though so that helps. It's cool and kinda breezy out right now but once the front comes through tomorrow morning it should be considerably cooler. I think they're calling for a high tomorrow of like 58 or so, and that should be right after midnight. Should be a nice day to stay home and play freaking Halo!!! And of course sleep and come back to work tomorrow night. Sigh.

So I got home this morning and TK was asleep so I chatted with TH for a while then went to bed around 9:00 or so. Woke up when he got home and we all went running around for a little bit. We went to Gamestop and cancelled our preorders for The Master Chief Collection (since we went ahead and bought the digital version) and GTA V, since we're still holding out for the digital version. If we do end up having to buy the disks we'll probably get them from the Microsoft store because they're offering a $10 gift card with purchase. Hey, every little bit helps :-) Finished up there and went by HEB for a couple of things, got home and hung out for a while, then tried to take a quick nap but I couldn't fall asleep so I got up and played a little COD AW with TK. And now I'm at work, knowing that the MCC went live about an hour ago and I can't play it until I get home in the morning. Double sigh.

Noms for the day: Not quite yet :-/

Song: Random - Halo Theme Songs 1-4. Yup, I'm a dork :-)

Best thing: Saw my cop buddy tonight! He's had a trainee dude for the past month or so, so he hasn't been able to come visit me and R here at work. No more trainee though :-)

Worst thing: Kinda tired :-/

Woohoo.

November 9

Sunday night, back at work. Yeehaw, lol. So far it's been pretty quiet, which is always nice. It's a little cool out tonight but by Tuesday morning they're calling for some seriously cold stuff to hit. I likes :-)

So let's see. Got home Friday morning and TK was still up so we had some breakfast and went to take care of the kitties. Finished up there and headed up to the security office so I could pick up my new security license. Stopped by the local Army/Navy surplus store because TK had never been there before. He was sooooo excited, lol. It's awesome! We bought a couple of dummy grenades and a 50 cal bullet. Oh, and an army green beanie hat for R here at work. Cause that's what he likes. On the way home we drove past the Ferrari place so we had to stop for a minute and drool over the cars. They were soooooo shiny. We also drove through the neighborhood I lived in when my parents and I first moved to town. I showed TK the Randall's I worked at for my first job, the 7-11 I worked at where TH and I met, and the apartments we lived in. My parents still lived there for 2 or 3 years after TK was born so he had been there when he was little. He actually kind of remembered the apartment building, because when we pulled up to it he asked if it was the place with the sidewalk that had handprints and cat footprints in it. So that was pretty cool :-) Got home and played a little COD Advanced Warfare, which is freaking awesome!! TH got home and we had Hot Pockets for dinner and watched a couple of episodes of Chuck. It's turning out to be pretty good! I hadn't had a nap or anything so I went on to bed when TH did.

November 6

Finally Thursday night! And holy freaking shit I am tired tonight :-/ It could be worse though because I almost ended up having to come in to work early tonight. The other girl here at work got stung by a wasp earlier today so she freaked out and called the big boss. He called me around 4:30 or so and I told him that I could come in early if he needed me to but it probably wouldn't be until at least 8:00 because I still needed to sleep. He managed to get ahold of one of the other guys though so it all worked out. Yay, lol.

So I got home this morning and TK was asleep so I chatted with TH at work for a little bit then went on to bed. Woke up around 12:30 and TK and I went to Walmart to pick up a couple of grocery type things and a new powerstrip, then went to Gamestop and bought 2 Xbox Ones! More on that in a minute, lol. As we were leaving Gamestop there was a guy in a pickup who had broken down right in the middle of the exit driveway leading out to the frontage road and everyone was just driving around him like he wasn't even there. We stopped and helped him push his truck down about a block to get it over on a side street :-) Got home and made chili cheese tater tots for dinner, started setting up the Xboxes, and hung out with TH for a little bit. I tried to take another quick nap but it didn't really work. Sigh.

November 5

Wednesday night! Almost finished for the week :-) Seems like it's been a long week for some reason. Dunno why. It started raining before I came to work last night and has pretty much rained nonstop ever since. Nothing heavy though, just a nice soaking rain. So that's cool.

So I got busy last night and didn't get a chance to write but there's really not much going on so I guess it's not really that big of a deal, lol. Basically just work, sleep, hanging out with TH and TK, and coming back to work. So...yeah. I did meet the new girl here at work tonight. She seems nice enough but I don't know how long she'll be around. She said she's already told the big boss she wants to find something closer to her house so she doesn't have to drive as far. So I guess we'll see what happens.

Noms for the day: Yeah, I kinda didn't get around to any of that. Oops :-/

Song: The Wanted - Glad You Came. Random shuffle again.

Best thing: Nice and cool out!

Worst thing: Feeling blah :-(

Eh.

November 3

Not really much going on today. It's been pretty slow at work so far. That's always nice :-) There's been a really light, steady drizzle ever since I got to work tonight. Just barely enough to get the roads kinda wet. Tomorrow afternoon it's supposed to start raining and pretty much rain through Wednesday night. Some models are calling for as much as 4"-5" in places. Could get interesting...

So I went online on the way home this morning but didn't manage to get any rides. Maybe if I had hung out for a while I could have snagged something but I was kinda ready to just go home. TK was asleep when I got there so I talked to TH at work for a little while then went to bed around 9:00 or so. Got up at 4:00, hung out with TH and TK, made some beef noodle stew type stuff and cornbread for dinner, watched the first episode of Chuck with TH, took a shower, and now I'm at work. Yay, lol. I'm thinking if TK is awake in the morning and it's not raining we might go hiking and/or go feed the ducks. Dunno yet though.

Noms for the day: Ugh.

Song: T-Pain, Yung Joc - Buy U A Drank. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Nice and cool out tonight :-)

Worst thing: Kinda tired but not too bad.

Woohoo.

November 2

Sunday night, back at work. It's nice and cool out tonight, too. We ended up messing around all day and I never did get a nap so I'm kinda tired but not too bad. So far it's been pretty slow here at work. There was a big racing event thingie in town this weekend and today was the last day so I kinda expected it to be a little busier than normal. Guess not, though. Traffic wasn't really too bad either so that was kinda weird. Nice, but weird, lol.

So let's see. Friday morning I stopped on the way home for coffee and breakfast tacos. TK was still awake so we ate breakfast then went to go do the kitty thing. We were there for a couple of hours cleaning the cages and playing with the kitties. It was awesome :-) There were a few of the same kitties as before but also a few new ones. Including a set of little Siamese brothers who were soooooo freaking adorable!! Ahem. Finished up there and went by Gamestop to look around. We're still kinda seriously thinking about the whole Xbox One thing :-) Stopped by Target to look at toys and stuff and picked up some frozen pizza and frozen wings for dinner, Got home and hung out for a while, played some GTA V until TH got home, then made dinner. TK's buddy came over and we watched an episode of Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. while we waited for the Trick or Treating dudes to start showing up. Once it got dark we sat out on the porch handing out candy and eating vodka gummy bears. And being silly :-) It was fun! Once we had handed out all of the candy we went inside and hung out for a while then TH and I went to bed and the boys stayed up for a while.
