Thanksgiving brought about stress... and germs. Seems my relatives have super germs, I rarely get sick and Wednesday I just felt dead. Noticed it coming on Monday with sneezing and extreme fatigue just by walking to my gym... Didn't help that the great monthly started quite early for December and showed up in all it's glory late Monday night.
At least I got two things over with at one time.
Anyways... Onto the days!
Sunday ~ It was a slow day, We stayed home for the most of it and finally put the TV up. Finally on top of the freezer chest it turned out to be quite the perfect fit for such a TV.
Supper Was: White Castle.
Monday~ Boring day. At least with the TV and other items set up I could drag the Christmas Tree out. I swear that tree is out to kill me... putting it up and taking it down I always get little cuts all over my arms and legs.
Once out of the box I had to check to see if the lights connected to the tree still worked... Guess getting a tree with the lights attached wasn't quite the smartest of moves. I was prepared to have to cut the lights off the top third of the tree and put normal string lights on it but..... A miracle. Most of the lights came on all three sections, A few dark spots were easily fixed by using string lights to cover them up.
Might be a little strange but I could just be happy with a tree of lights, no ornaments... The beads and ornaments will slowly be added of course but even now they are not.
Went slowly to the gym, ended up feeling like crap once I got there but worked out anyways... Nighttime lead to sneezing and the evil monthly "friend" quite early.
Supper: Home cooked Chicken/Cheese/Ham, Baked Beans and Avocado!
Tuesday~ Yep, I'm sick. The bathroom faucet is leaking to the point of a stream now, It had been dripping since Spring and no one bothered to fix it even after being told three times. "Next Week." They say. Now they will be bugged till they fix it....
Anyways, Wild Eggs we went. Blueberry pancakes for breakfast/lunch. I actually would have rather just stayed home and slept but I went out into the cold...rain. Main thing to drive me was we planned to see Harry Potter at 4:00.... Went to the Mall for a couple present buys and to kill a little time after food.
4:00, Harry Potter. I won't get into that right now.
It got over later then I thought it would, felt pretty shitty afterwards and just went home..
Supper; Don't remember, Wasn't much.
Wednesday~ Sick..... Cleaned the apartment a little. Didn't do much else... Chinese for supper but not a lot of food for me. Sink is still leaking. >_>
Thursday~ Not feeling as bad as Wends., Dragged myself out to go to Cafe LouLous and then Gamestop to poke around for some PS2 games. That was a fail.
While we were out the Maintenance came over to "fix" the sink but, When we got home we found a note that they ordered a part to fix it and will ASAP. Turns out while he was poking around with the basin he screwed up the pipes underneath.... The entire bottom cabinets were flooded with water. Good thing we only kept one plastic box under there...
An emergency call and a call back from Maintenance lead to a little tweeking and the "fast drip" seemed to quit. Just in case, After the clean up we kept a bowl under the pipes and it's a good thing we did. Checking the bowl before I went to bed.... There was a little puddle of water in the bowl.
Supper; Left overs.
Friday~ Cold, Crappy, Snowy. Stayed in most the day with the icks and cold. Some cleaning was done and the maintenance guy never showed up to check in the pipes. Guess it's a full weekend of dripping and leaks for us. Oh well. It really isn't -that- bad.
Bought Black Butler 3 at B&N with a coupon plus the membership discount, Love knocking these down to below 10 dollars.
Supper; Mr Gattis.... Not a lot though.
Saturday~ Taco Bell! That's all I really have to say, I love their tacos. They are perfect for a sick person.. they make me relatively happy. Some minor XMass shopping was done.
Supper; Hot pocket and baked sweet potato.

Wednesday, December 1, 2010
Oh wow...
I.... almost did it again. I almost forgot about this place, It's the curse of all my blogs I just loose interest.
Delayed Weekly! If I can remember stuff....
Monday {22nd}~ Didn't do much, Went to the gym and cleaned the apartment. Beef burritos for supper.
Tuesday {23rd}~ This was a doomsday type deal. Had to go rape my savings account 1800 out.... Gave dad 1k of it, 300 for XMass gifts and... We went and bought the new TV with the other 500.
We decided to get the LG at WalMart since we know more about their return policy and it was cheaper there then most places. Before when we went there they never had any of the boxes set out but today when we got back into the Electronics area... They had two set out. It was like they were waiting for us to take them home, had little handles on the top and everything.
It was a quick buy, We walked in and grabbed the box. Took it to the counter and the guy rang us up and out we went... After getting past the door guard I waited in front of the store for the dad to pull the car up. Into the backseat the box slid and....it... fit! No adventure or drama here just right in it slid.
Seems we chose correct, Our little Rio couldn't fit anything bigger. We got the TV home and just checked on it, made sure the screen and such were fine... Didn't have the space to set it up yet.
Lunch Was; Tea Station. Food and Bubble Tea! The Passion Fruit Boba here isn't as good as the drink the now closed Taste of Asia had but it was "okay".
Dinner; Leftovers.
Wednesday {24th}~ What are we doing for Thanksgiving. That was the question of the day... Dad did his normal gym routine and I stayed home and cleaned/gym. The TV was still snug in it's little box...
When he got home from the gym he called up the relatives and... Yes. We were getting together at the Uncles for Turkey Day. Good. We didn't have to worry about food for the next day, Shopping at the grocery store the day before Thanksgiving wasn't what I wanted to do.... Hanging around relatives wasn't exactly something I wanted to do either but... At least it's free food.
Supper; Bonefish! Finally. We had tried the week before but the car decided to take a sick day. BangBang Shrimp for five dollars is a very nice deal. <3
Thursday {TurkeyDay}~ The morning started off.... quiet. Asleep at 8 AM my fan suddenly stopped. This always wakes me up from even the deepest of sleeps... The power had gone out for some unknown reason. It's raining outside, That's actually reason enough with this power.
Good news though; It only stayed out 15 mins so I just stayed in bed and went back to sleep.
10:30 AM; Time to get up. Had to leave for the Uncles at 11:30. Yep, I was full of nerves....Relatives make me nervous and the questions make me feel sick.
Once out of bed and into the living room... X_x Oh look! The TV is set up on a...speaker. As long as it held I didn't care what it was sitting on.... it was so pretty. My TV.... my big TV... 32 inches isn't big for some people but to me it was wonderful and it still is. Bright screen just begging to have video games played on it.... I knew the dad couldn't stand just looking at the box for long. Now I didn't even wanna leave.
Uncles house; We got there at noon... expecting to see grandma but.. No grandma.. WTH. Where's grandma! Okay, Cousin went up to get her and the aunt... Long story short. Grandma wasn't feeling that well so she and the aunt didn't make it. Cousin, Uncle, Uncles GF and Uncles GFs Sister.... That's who was there.. It turned out. Okay..... Cousin was on her phone most the time... Uncle was fairly quiet.. Uncles GF was as talkative as ever....
The awkward questions of what I've been doing all summer and why I never come up to visit... All of those were there. No one up there knows I'm an unmediated bipolar with who knows whatever else... I held up fairly well.. didn't eat a lot.... Kept thinking of the TV waiting for me at home. hehe
After we ate and talked a little we wandered up the road to the grandmas house, Pretty much the same thing there but without the food and less awkward... Stayed a couple hours then home we went!
Home... Cheeseball and fruit for a small supper... TV. Turkey day wasn't so bad, I didn't feel as sick as previous years when I got home... <3 TV.
Friday {26th}~ Papalino's for Lunch/Breakfast! My favorite pizza. Ordered two slices, One with Anchovies & Pineapple and the other with Chicken Sausage & Garlic Spinach. First eaten there with the second brought home for supper.
Had to find a "TV Stand" for the DVD player and other things that connect to the TV, A stop at Barnes & Noble for coffee and a XMass buy... then to WalMart! It was later in the day so most the crowd from the morning sales were gone... The only area that was still relatively packed was the Electronics section. Had our TV gone down in price since Tuesday? Nope. Same price. Good.
We found the stand pretty quickly and got out of there... Home we went. Was planning to go to the gym but we got home later then expected and it wasn't nice outside, So I stayed in and just had my second slice of pizza for supper...
Pizza Day!!
Saturday {27th}~ Normal Saturday. Havana Rumba for lunch... Coffee.... Store... Home. We put the stand together... It went okay. I swear dad and I get into arguments about everything... and most the time it's about something I was doing wrong. -_- Wasn't going anything wrong either it was just I was doing it different then what he'd do....
In the end; We got the stand together but not quite right. Which I find amusing because he was so pissy about getting it correct... It stands up and holds weight so that's all fine. I wouldn't put the TV on said stand though, The "wood" isn't very strong. Maybe I am just paranoid. TV is still sitting on that speaker, It's a super speaker.....
Supper; Leftovers.
