Remember that peaceful, just-Colby-and-me Friday we were going to have? I should've known better. Go to answer a knock at the door, look outside and there are 4 men standing there, the pest control dude and 3 apartment maintenance dudes. I was still in my Christmas reindeer pajamas, no bra, fuzzy pink slippers. Hair not brushed. Teeth not brushed either, and wearing glasses. The apartment complex had sent out a memo that said they were doing inspections, testing smoke detectors, changing furnace filters, etc. Thursday, the memo said Thursday, dammit, not Friday. But of course they didn't get to all the apartments on Thursday so ours got done on Friday. Hey, thanks for letting me know. Man I was pissed. Some receptacles around here needed replacing, so they said they would come back after lunch to do the work. Took 2.5 hours for them to do it, but it's done now. And by the time they came back at 1:00, I managed to put on a bra and brush my teeth. Go me.
Went out Friday night with one of my BFFs. I was shocked at how not crowded the bar was! Even after midnight, the place was dead. Guess we didn't get the memo that said don't go to Phoenix Hill on January 18. But hey, you know me, put a cold beer in my hand and sit me down in front of some live music, I'm good to go. We still had a great time being our usual goofy selves. People watching, even in small doses, is so very entertaining sometimes. You know it's bad when you catch yourself asking questions such as, "You think that's a man or just a really ugly woman?" Only to be outdone by, "Which is worse on dancing Granny over there, her muffin top or her lack of a bra?" And one of my favs, "Nice neck tattoo, really it is." Yikes.
My Hoosiers won today, just in case you hadn't heard and/or wanted to know. It wasn't without a bit of worry, though, definitely not a blowout. Northwestern came back within just a few points. I swear, Indiana Indiana
We're in the process of naming Colby's hermit crab. Yes, I realize he got this crab 6 months ago. Don't judge me, we've been busy. I asked my fabulous Facebook friends for some name suggestions. We got some really great ones, but some really rotten ones, too, like Blue and Wildcat. So these are the names I put on Colby's "name-that-crab" page on his eye gaze: Bob, Hemi, Clarence, Oladipo, Willis, Herman, Rico (my choice), Birdy, Mr. Crab. Either Colby doesn't like any of these names or he isn't in the mood to name his crab just yet. This child's stubborness is beyond belief at times. Guess we'll try again tomorrow. Oh, and to all you buttheads at Colby's school who are trying to covert my kid to become a Cardinals fan, your sneaky tactics seem to be working. Today on eye gaze he said U of L, go-go-go. (Sigh, God grant me patience, and please hurry!!)
I hear my super comfy memory foam topped bed calling me, so I'm stopping for now. G'nite all.
