Honk Shooooo Toooooo

I was going to just post this picture and then I glanced at my blog....apparently all about the sleepin bebes this week? This one was particularly adorable rarely does she sleep on us. We are never lucky enough to get sleep and snuggle at the same time. She woke up shortly after this because we were heading into Cheesecake Factory and heck...I would wake up to eat stuffed dates and tuna tar tar too.


We went and saw a reopening of an Apple store near by today, it smelled new which I believe was worth the remodel. I then went to store where I had recently shopped.....and had a snit with a manager. To sound as snotty as humanly possibly...I got my way, which was nice but DAAAANG the lady was really rude. I didn't feel bad at all asking the woman to honor a 14 day policy on the 16th day. Normally I would but the situation truly warranted it. I am NOOOOT the person that would do something like that but I saved 54 dollars... FIFTY FOUR DOLLARS. I think that was worth getting a lecture from a tall skinny meticulously dressed manicured woman on how she shouldn't be doing this because you know....the economy is bad. Did I mention she was well dressed...the economy was probably not affecting this woman...just being honest. Well keeping my business by working a customer service mentality might be better for the economy than you think...mostly because your rude behavior wasn't going to keep me shopping in your store. I know I sound like a snobby brat but I promise it was a very valid and justifiable argument made today. I got a store credit which I then turned around and used in the store. I count it as a win win. Although I'm pretty sure I didn't make any new friends today...that's for sure.

We meandered home this afternoon and we ALL took a 3 hour nap...talk about productivity I think it might have been the wisest use of our time all day. We got up and Dave started to finish our semi small painting project....4 hours later we have the downstairs hallway, half the entryway and the short wall(s) in the living room painted. They look AWESOME. To finish the hallways and the entryway and the living room we need either scaffolding or a super amazing tall ladder. Both of which we could borrow from our parents who have offered to lend us...if only we could find a way to get the supplies here...FROM OHIO...(I really like CAPSLOCK TODAY). Oh and we need at least 5 more cans of paint...silly details. Anyway we got as much done as we/he physically can without my constant help of holding a ladder...a shorter ladder of course. The main reason we need a tall ladder isn't for the walls but to repaint the ceiling. Our house as a bad case of the uglies when it comes to previous paint colors and no one really took care of the walls and ceilings so they are all dinged up. Lets not talk about the baseboards either...that's a whole other ramble....

Anyway we are now chilling on the couch...two pieces of cheesecake (only one for me...I'm not THAT hungry lol) and a coke zero.....there might be some rum in my coke...noooot gonna lie. Watching our normal run of geektv...they should create a network called that. All the SciFi and geek humor all wrapped up in one station...that would be lovely.

This is the first weekend of Dave's new schedule and I'm a huge fan. This is the first Saturday we've had off together without requesting it off in probably a year...maybe longer? His schedule is changed officially now and it looks like we'll be spending time together from now on...we haven't had that kind of time since we lived in the apartment...back in September. Silly quality time...so overrated!

As usual...I have no interest in 'ending' this post...I'm so bad at that anyway...I can't wrap up a thought if my life depends on it.
