Munny Arrived Yesterday…

19 of 365: Munny Arrived Yesterday...

Well…

At least that’s his name for right now…
I haven’t started coloring him…
Mainly because I don’t really want to use crayons…and because I plan on going to the craft store sometime before the weekend is over so I can get the stuff I really want.

Of course, I have to outline him with light pencil first…but you get the picture…

He was a much welcomed addition yesterday…real walkie talkie

I think my Flip gets here today…so I’ll post a picture of that tomorrow probably.

I spent some time on tokidoki last night, going over what I wanted to purchase from there. I haven’t yet decided, but we’ll see…I’ve been dying to get my hands on Sabochan…

If you have absolutely no idea what I’m talking about…
Watch tokidoki Creative Director Simone Legno

Alright…gotta find my coffee…

Peace Batch.

Coffee  Coffee on TwitPic
It’s almost like a drug.

No wait…drugs are bad.

I know I havent posted in a while. It hasnt been on purpose. I just haven’t had time.

Blogging isn’t as fun as it used to be…once. I think twitter has taken over.

But I’ve had some coffee tonight, so basically… I’ve got some extra energy to write a quick little post here…keep the search engine rankings up.

The past month in a nutshell…

Cousin’s Baptism, Dodger Game, Work, Networking, Baptism, Work, Order Passport *oh crap…I forgot to go to the post office*, plan cruise, Work, pay for cruise, Work, save for Mississippi, Work, save for cruise, Work, Work, Work.

Yeah…like that.

I manage to get a work out in there every now and then…

But basically, I’m in the office before the clock hits 9am and I leave before it hits 4pm. I do need SOME time for sanity.

But…I’m happy and I guess that’s all that matters right. :)

Having Bentley and Incog makes it all worthwhile.

Alright, sleep becomes me…

Give me a break…

26 Feb

give me a break…

break me off a piece of that Reeces Cup! *but I’ll take a Kit-Kat–im just sayin*

Today’s a busy day…

DSL guy + biz insurace folks + paint estimate + window etching estimate + security estimate + furniture drop-off.

Matter of fact, based on the # of things I need to get to today, I think I’ll buy a coffee maker for the office like I have at home.  I’ve had my friend Tassi  for about a year now, and believe me, she makes the.best Hot Chocolate. Her coffee’s alright. I think I’m just used to the amount of SUGAR + CARBS Starbucks puts in their coffee.

Alright…let me go find my banana and get to work.

Have a happy happy day!

Not Much…

30 Nov

I dont really have much to blog about today. Incog and I went to Claimjumper’s last night and it was super good…even though I didnt finish it. *Doggie Bag*

Hope you have a good Hump Day!

Bally’s Sucks…

16 Nov

I think I’m pissed off…*sigh*…

I’m mad at the fact that I cant even get out of this stupid contract unless there ISNT a Bally’s located within 20 miles of my home. That’s BS if you ask me. Good Shit Ballys! Good way to lock your clients in!

I called their corporate office yesterday after i made my post, which happens to be located in Norwalk (Long Beach), CA. And I spoke with this little girl who tried to explain to me, WHY after having been harrassed by one of their employees, I can’t cancel my membership. Bitch. I’d like to hereby REVOKE my endorsement of Ballys. Ballys SUCKS.

It looks like I’m stuck going to the Stuck-Up Bally’s up the street. I HATE that Ballys because everyone there is EXTRA rich and they look at you weird when you come in wearing a bandana.

1. I’m BLACK. :mad:
2. My hair is pressed. :mad:
3. I’m not sweating it out for NOBODY. :pissed:

Anyhow, I decided to say FUCK IT. If my job is paying $38.00 a month for me to go to a gym, I’m GOING to the one I WANT to go to…the one that’s convenient for ME.

So I went…

And I nodded, did a wave, and walked DIRECTLY PASSED the object of my demise. And it felt good. You see, even though he did me dirty, I’m not the type of person to hold a grudge *unless you just did some off the wall shit*…So I did the cordial thing and kept it pushing. God don’t like ugly. Besides the trainer doesnt know I dont like him anyways… *sigh*

I worked out for a good hour and punished my muscles for taking so much time off. I dont feel the pain yet, but I’m sure I will tomorrow. You see, the second day after always hurts more than the day after. :duh:

Anyhow, it’s Wednesday and there’s hardly anyone here…I had to push back the meeting I rescheduled for today, until the middle of December, so it’s a load off of my mind, if only for a short while.

lexus rx400h 4 Ballys Sucks...

2005 Lexus RX 330 Thundercloud Ballys Sucks...

I heard back from the Lexus dealership down the street from my house. The RX that I want is in stock, so hopefully I’ll be able to hop into one sometime soon…we’ll see. They quoted me at about $41,000, which is better than I thought it would be. With my mom negotiating, I’m pretty sure we’ll be able to get a better deal. She negotiates for a living. :surprised: :thumbsup: In anycase, the real story is that I dont know for sure if I want the RX or just a new Honda Accord. Of course the Accord was quoted at $33,000 with everything that I wanted in it, but I said my next car would be an SUV. *sigh*

Welp, I hope you all have a happy Hump Day! Coffee run time!!

1 Nov

*sigh*

I did it…I dressed up. I didnt want to…but I didnt want to be the only one NOT dressed up. And the one coworker who was giving ME an excuse to not dress up, by not dressing up himself, gave into temptation. So I pulled out the pajamas that I brought…along with the rubber bands to put my hair in pigtails, slid into my pink furry slippers and grabbed my UCLA bear who was missing one eye and had his neck in a noose… I dont know WHAT i was…but it worked.

Damnit.

I was able to talk to incog last night….felt good. I’m having an okay day so far…I gotta go get a coffee in a minute though…

Have a good Tuesday folks!

Courtney…..only you…..

14 Oct

This morning started off interesting…*sigh*…

I woke up extra early because I couldnt sleep…Then finally when I got back to sleep, I realized it was 6:57AM and the alarm was about to go off ANYWAY. So I stayed awake. I did my usual morning, check emails, check bank accounts, get ready for work… But, I couldnt help but to lay back down. So I did….and I ended up waking up in a panick because I realized it was passed the time that I should be getting on the freeway.

So I eventually got to the front door and realized that I couldnt find my credit card. I mean, what would the morning be without Starbucks. I couldnt find it…and the last place I remembered using it was at SavOn, last night. *head in hands* I lost my last credit card last friday and I had transfered money into THIS account, so I could use THAT card, and now…I can’t find IT. So now..I dont have ANY DEBIT/CREDIT CARDS….

Courtney….only you….

So when I got to our parking lot, I called incog from the car and let out some steam since I couldnt find it in the car either. He suggested calling Savon when I got to work and that he could go pick it up while he was running errands today. :thumbsup: I headed towards the freeway. I got there and realized it was going to be an EXTRA long ride on the 405 being that Sunset was backed up for whatever reason. It took me 1.5 hours to get to work BECAUSE OF THE DAMN 405. *sigh*

Courtney….only you….

So when I finally did get to work, I ran to get the mail, because I knew the mailroom would be closing….I got there and the ladies were being extra nice and let me have the mail even though it was closed. HOWEVER, on the way out of the mailroom, I couldnt get out. And the ladies had already locked themselves on the inside of the mailroom. So I was standing with LOTS of MAIL, and huge headache, in the middle of a loading dock underneath one of the tallest buildings in Century City.

Courtney…..only you…..

So I decided to get creative and use the freight elevator shaft. There was no one around…HEY! Why not?! So i got in, pressed 2nd Floor, the doors shut….aaaaaaaaaand……I was stuck.

Courtney…..only you…..

Eventually one of the guards heard me and let me out and I was able to get up stairs somewhat….on time?

I’m going downstairs to plead with the folks at Washington Mutual to let me have some money out of one of the accounts because I NEED some COFFEE like I NEED a RIGHT ARM.

I hope you all have a good weekend,
