awww the weekend

The weekend has come again, and gone again. But then again I really don't have weekends. I worked on friday but had yesterday and today to enjoy. It wasn't so bad. I went on a crazy shopping spree yesterday, buy all sorts of wild things like a jewelry box and a magazine. CRAZY!!! The jewelry box was from tj maxx too so it was dirt cheap. Amanda and I went out and about yesterday while Evan did car silliness. We did stop by Hodgepodge, Paige's store downtown, and showed off our knitting. Amanda has a baby hat pattern thats make you wana puke cute and I have my standard felted purse. She wants prices and then some to sell. I'm all excited because she's got some great purses that she just got in that are really fantastic and I WANT ONE!!!! We headed out after the car silliness was done to see how well the subie drove, and went to dinner. After dinner we drank wine and laughed until the kitties looked at funny playing balgerdash. Today was a big day of doing not much. Getting up and working out. Lots of knitting, and cleaning. The fish got a clean tank....sooooooo very clean too. Eddie got a clean bin, and he's been running around and around in his wheel all evening making me look bad. Yes i still have eddie, i was hoping to be rid of him by now but since i can't seem to pawn him off on people I'm stuck with the little guy. I've been busy knitting for the passed few hours. Its now time for a cup of tea and more knitting.

Oh thats right I have time now...

Well any whoooo. Without all that pesky studying to do I've actually had time to do things, but really haven't. In fact I've been frantically cleaning my home. Top to bottom. Its just generally grubby. Little dead bugs in the spots that you never really see, and dust. My place looks great. I still have a few big things to do. Like the Kitchen and the front closet. Lots of cleaning. I still debating if I want to mess with the move or not. For like 50ish bucks more a month I get a bigger place with a patio and big kitchen but I do have to move and moving is a bitch. Moving moving moving, yuck yuck yuck. Plus all that pesky address change. Today was the best, I finally cleaned the piss out of the office. Its sooooooooo clean so nice, actually able to leave the door open again!!!!! I need to get the bathroom finished too, I need to get some stuff for the bathroom because nothing matches in there and its driving me a little nutters. I want some pictures for the walls. Well then Its time to go to bed. Talk to you latter.

Budgies a go-go

Well that has nothing to do with this post but it sounds good. SO I've been driving the mini almost everywhere I go these days. Learning to drive and drive and drive. Learn the art of turns and such. Still start to get panic-ie on hills, and don't maintain good petal pressure on the gas causing an almost stall. This is my problem. I'm working hard on it though. What else have I been up to. Went on a shopping spree in nashville for yarn, see soyouknit for those stories. Been studying very hard, hahaaaa. I should have know some leave dates by now but there has been some problems with como these days. Things beening how they are and such. Mmmmm things I've been doing things I've been doing. Today I slept because I worked last night. I got up and worked out and grocery shopped. Knitted and studyed. I also drove out to see Jen and safe her from the hell that was the last FRG meeting. At chuckie cheese. It wasn't pretty. Then we went for dinner. Adults should talk to adults. Small children also scare the crap out of me. I popped on over to Amanda's for tea and cookies and to watch some Daily show. It was good fun. Now I'm home watching tv and bloging. Wow what a life. Oh and Mike if you still read this thing, would you freakin email me. Nightie-night

If you haven't heard eddie's story he was let go in the plants near my door. I scooped him up and stuck him in a box. He's got a nice little mouse house and he'll go to a great 6 year old I know, when she's home from her summer vaction.

Adventures in Driving Volume II

Soo after many many fowl words, very unlady like fowl words too, I felt good enough or stupid enough to take the mini out to some roads with street lights. So It wasn't to bad, I'm finding that magic place here the car stalls out and where it doesn't. Resisting the urge to floor it, when I have a chance to go, but I'm getting better. I didn't stall it, not like the first night I drove it. I got some good driving in, with some little hills, figured out about that, gotta find that magic clutch in clutch out spot. But over all I'm doing it. The jetta just in no where as fun to drive as the mini. Sorry Jetta. Not to mention there's nothing like driving a car that makes people smile when they see it. Well me and and mini with its limo tint windows are going to take the rest of the day off, and maybe just maybe if I'm silly enough I'll drive it work tomorrow.

Adventures in Driving Volume I

Well now then... I got my cooper after some work. A little here and little there, and then boom no more passat Hello Cooper. It took all day but its mine now. The Mini as you can see is a fantastic color, and about the same color of my hair. It also has about 20% tints and black leather sooooooo when stopped at a light and having a cop behind me, guess what happened. Um yeah, BIG HUGE LIGHT!!!!!!! I got lit up by a cop at like 9pm driving the mini with my friends in it. Seeing as I'm not a native stick driver, I'm still stalling it at least once each time I drive it. But I did drive it down town for dinner. Everytime i drive it I love it, but it also freaks me out. So my dream car is mine now. Weeeeeeeeeee

A red velvet metalic 5 speed mini. I DROVE A 5 SPEED. The guy all but told Evan to take me to the nearest parking lot and show me how to drive the Damn thing, and that we did. So In one day I test drove my dream car, drove my first 5 speed, and latter in the day went 110mph on the freeway not in the mini. Um but we won't talk about that. So now I'm hooked on getting a 5 speed. I loved it. Theres nothing like having that kinda control over your car. I also loved the car. They wanted a bit more than I would give them for it so I'll have to talk them down. Oh well. Its not an S but its not a bad car. Thats the big news for the day. Amanda and Evan and I went to see the Omen after we had some Starbucks, than some late night wendy's salads and a good bottle of wine. God we're odd folks but its fun. I'm just thrilled about my learning to drive a stick. Think happy mini thoughts. CA

Lou Diamond Philips

Soooo.... I've interupted my morning knitting to blog. Why, because its wednesday and as it turns out on Wednesday from 8-3pm I can watch x-files on the Sci-fi network. Yes I'm admitting to it. But as I watch I've discovered that Lou Diamond Philips has stared in ever last one of there made for TV movies. Just thought that was kinda odd and funny. Ok back to your regularly scheduled knitting.

Finally Friday..........

Well its not actually Friday but it feels like it me. I worked three days straight. All 36 hours at once. It was great to get it done, but it also sucked. Really freaking sucked. Mmmmmm what has happened since monday, oh yeah NOTHING. I haven't been awake or not working long enough to do anything. I took out some garbage, slept a lot. I even did a little yoga. But just once. Tomorrow I'll really work out. So did you see this thing on CNN about the women who beat the dog breader with a dead dog. Then as she drove away hung the dead dog out of the sun roof. Its sad and funny at the same time. Not to mention that while I was watching tv there's a rock paper, scissors event that will be on TV. I think AandE is starting to loose sight of the arts and entertainment thing. Oh well. Strange things.

Hell might have frozen over......

Yes thats right. I went and lounged by the pool in the sun in my swim suite and I didn't burn. We're talking like 4 hours of sun exposure. Granted I don't have a tan to show for it but I'm just proud I didn't burn. So I worked a bunch this week, which has been educational and fun at the same time. I've also learned that I'm ok at 3am, 4 isn't usually a good time but 3 not bad. So about the pool thing, yeah so that was odd, I've never been a lay in the sun and do nothing kinda person. I wasn't sure what to do with myself. But it wasn't a bad time. I headed out to dinner with my friend Caryn that night and then back home for a few beers and a movie. Today was short on sleep and long on doing nothing. So I should round up my study stuff for the week.

I wasn't sure what to do with myself. But it wasn't a bad time. I headed out to dinner with my friend Caryn that night and then back home for a few beers and a movie. Today was short on sleep and long on doing nothing. So I should round up my study stuff for the week.

Hell might have frozen over......

Yes thats right. I went and lounged by the pool in the sun in my swim suite and I didn't burn. We're talking like 4 hours of sun exposure.

the pool is open

Mmmm so today it was freaking hot, at least for me it was. But after sleeping until 1030, I worked last night, I got up and did nothing all morning. Well it was well into the afternoon when I went to the pool and after sitting in the hot sun I was convinced to get my new bathing suite on and get in the pool. This was a big step for me and my super winter white legs. Well after a good coat of sun screen I braved the pool and floated around with a pina colada for the rest of the afternoon. It was well worth it. I my spend more time pool side this summer. Tomorrow brings a passport photo, a notary and a trip to dickson, I'll tell you all more about it later.

OH Great Scott......

Well now then, its been a wild few days. Well not for me, but for those who ride in the car with me. She's currently toting a second very weeee, very weee passanger. I went to work last weekend and it was nice. It wasn't that bad at all, a little pushie and little odd because I can't result anything so Kathy was a little stressed out. Though I actually graduate on thursday I don't know how things will work out. We had another strange and shitty week and work. We got questions answered with more questions and just general shit. My Friend liz left for BNOC this week so we hung out every evening, her Dana and I. But don't forget the puppie. Friday was kinda a crapper but I did get a chance to watch my movies and just relax on my sofa. My computer crashed and burned, so i had to bring it back up. I'm going to have to complete erase and reinstall. Oh factory settings. This morning we had some pancakes down at Linda's Pick a Rib. Mmmmmm great food. Its been threating to let loose all day with a great big Thunder storm. Long rumbles but no real rain. I went and got some more summer clothes, just a few shirts and a new wallet thingie. Generally I've done nothing today. I've got a dinner to go to soon, that should be good. Well then.

ARrrrrrrG

No I haven't turned into a pirate, but I'm close to something. Not sure what it is. I've been to work, to the state lab, to seattle, to the state lab and then this weekend to work again. I'm tired and my glasses keep falling down on my nose. AHHHHHHHHH. there they go again. Other than being stressed, I had a great time in seattle. My flights were good, they went to Denver which was great. Its the perfect half way point, 2.5 hour and 2.5 hours. No real food, but what do you want for 200 bucks. While I was home, we ate a bunch of food which is great!!! Ate at Salty's with the grandparents, that'll stress anyone out. Enjoy great weather is seattle which is crazy. Went home to TN on sunday and it was a whole day of flying but it wasn't so bad. This week has been a long and crappy one. We've been forgotten, ignored and left out to dry. I'm done with it. In fact we have tomorrow, which thankfully is friday, a full week and then one tuesday until we're freeeeeee. Free of APSU, free of school and free of royal crap forever. I can't wait. No more school, until I get my masters. Yes I'll get my masters, oh good lord I said that i'd never go back to school....and here I am planning for more. Its the food talking, i've eaten a bunch of chili this week and its starting to make me acted crazy. Well then, tomorrow's friday, and then a weekend of fun and games at the hospital. Weeeee. I'll let you all know how that goes..

Twice the BS

no its not twice the shit, but twice the crap yes. I was told that I was cleared to get my second BS from Austin Peay. That will make me BSM BSMT, wooooooooo whooooooo!!! No that just means that they'll want me to be a shift supervisor, DAMN. Well lets seeee, I've been to state lab all last week, after the super fun night weekend of rivers and spires. Then on friday night I stayed up well past my normal 11 pm bed time, actually until 230 so that I could sleep in until 10 am. I had a good reason, I went to work for the first time. I worked from 2p-2a. This wasn't quite as long as I thought it was going to be. I thought for sure that this would drag on and on but it wasn't bad. Left work at 2 got home at 3 went to bed at 330, totally crapped out. Talked to Ross for about 10 minutes though, which was good. Then I slept until 10 and did it all over again. Actually I got to leave at 10pm so I could get up and go to the state lab and dink around there. SO I managed to have an unproductive weekend. I did get all my laundry and such done on friday night. That also encluded finishing that freaking purple top that I've been knitting for about a decade. The next time I make something like that, I'll take better notes. IT only sorta fits. Today was a really yawner, yet again another thrilling day at the state. Did take a nice walk around and around the building at lunch, more people should do this. Tomorrow I head home for a few days, I'm thrilllllled about this, I leave right after work!!!!!!!!!! In fact I'm down right gitty about it. I hope the weather does well for me. Well then its getting to be bed time. Night

to be cute...

So for all you people out there who have called me cute. All 5 foot 2 of me. Yes I'm cute and I will embrace my cute. I won't like it, but I will accept the fact that I am CUTE. Have you ever looked up the word cute....most likely not. But if you do you find out some interesting things about this four letter word (I don't think thats a quinkie dink). Its an 18th century shorting of the world Acute in the sence to be clever or shewd. So thank you, I will allow all you tall people who get neat titles like, striking to call me cute. I'll take being clever. If your wondering the weathers fine down here. Ok I should lay off the NPR on the weekends. They did a great think on 360 about the word cute that got me thinking why do people call me cute and why am I never anything else. Oh well I'll take it now.
Oh yeah.... had a good weekend went to the cool stuff down town, tasted some wine and hung out with the band P. Jones. Dana knows them. Dog sitting went well and all is well in claire-ville.

Fun with other peoples DNA

Ok its not other peoples as so much other peoples bacteria's dna. Yes thats true, the DNA of a bacteria. This is my first week at the state lab in Nashville. We've already done more in three days than half of my degree. But then again, I already know and understand it while my class mates just kinda stare. We got cool ID's so we can go almost anywhere in the building with them and ride the "elevator". We did this crazy gel on tuesday that runs for 17 hours, ok un-mmbb people can just glaze over here. Then the past two days I've been runnng rt-PCR and PCR. Granted its been fun but its been a huge repeat. I'm just happy to show off what I know. I've been working my butt off so the week has gone my great. I'm puppy sitting for the weekend so Jack the dog and I are hanging out. Well its almost bed time

Easter Sunday

This is usually a time eating for me. Get up eat, hang around eat and then spend either some semi-quality time with the Fam or friends in moscow and eat. This year though I am far from home or my beloved moscow I have still managed to round up a small heard of people to feed and enjoy this most sacred of religous holy days, hahaaaaaaaaaaa. This good eatting day. I don't reflex, other than on the roast I purchased and I almost went to church this morning, but it was with a friend who as normal as back out on me, and told me to late to go back to sleep. Though its a good thing that I didn't sleep in, I never sleep well on sundays. So any whooo. Making a lovely braise boston butt for dinner, which has actually turned into more of a 1 in the afternoon thing. Thats crazy. Making risotto and we've got like three other dishes coming so its going to be a ton and a half of food. YES. Sooo they claim today is going to be a great and sunny day, sure I'll believe it when I see it, for now I'm just chilling contemplating what I should do with my morning. Though going for a walk sounds great, its easter and I'm going to be vegatable. HAPPY EASTER everyone!!!!!!! Eat lots, laugh some and don't pass up the second helping

Making a lovely braise boston butt for dinner, which has actually turned into more of a 1 in the afternoon thing. Thats crazy. Making risotto and we've got like three other dishes coming so its going to be a ton and a half of food. YES. Sooo they claim today is going to be a great and sunny day, sure I'll believe it when I see it, for now I'm just chilling contemplating what I should do with my morning. Though going for a walk sounds great, its easter and I'm going to be vegatable. HAPPY EASTER everyone!!!!!!! Eat lots, laugh some and don't pass up the second helping

The patron saint of computers

If there was such a saint I would pray to her relics and celerbrate her feast day like the good catholic that I am. Today I pressed that fateful button RESTART. And boom that computer would not restart......see I'm very fearful of this since it happened to me once. Actually twice. So in state of panic I cried and then tried to fix spot. And some 6 hour latter I'm back up and running. These macs are prepared for anything. It held on to all my stuff and when I reinstalled everything it just pulled it all out of memory. Now my puter is all happy. well should be on my way...... ca

Well what'do ya know.....NOT MUCH

Yeah really, not much. Didn't go to dinner on Tuesday, but on Wednesday had a burrito with Liz and went to walmart. Then we had somee wine and dessert while watching the tale end of lost over at A and E's. Thursday was a long day, but we got a fab meal brought to us by a vendor. MMMmmmmm honey baked Ham sammies, with two salads and a cookie. It was good day for the lab, we rarely get that much attention. Scampered out of there early by a half an hour, which gave time to nap and work out, something that has been done everyday since the 12th, oooo look at me. Had a great dinner at Liz's. A little bit everything was served because we all brought something. We had great wine as always. Mmm I really need to buy some of my own. mmmm sleep was great and then friday. We had more to do at work on Friday than we have had all week but it still wasn't much of anything. And we skipped out early again. As you can see my life is centered on food. I've been knitting and knitting on my circular shrug and its coming along nicely. Once I start working and stop all this silliness of going to do all day, I'm going to buy a sewing machine and start painting again, because I'll have whole days to my self. It will be great. Friday was good too, went out to dinner with Dana and shopped at walmart again, I've been there three times this week, I haven't been to wal mart since god only knows when and then boooooom, I'm there everyday. Well I've got things to do today like, clean and eat some more good food.

Don't wish to hard

So as the return of summer here in the South loomed nearer with warm days that actually stretched into the 80's I began to fear the comming of a hooooot summer, not my thing. And as I jelously eyed the cool temps in my home state I wished for a few more cool rainy days and bitterly windy mornings. Well in a unique twist of meterological fate, it might snow here tonight. Great. Well if it did I could miss work tomorrow and that would be great because I'm a little bored. Really I feel bad about not writing in the ol' blog but I have little to discuse these days. Work, home, workout, knit. Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeep. Though I don't get enough of that sleeping thing. I went and took my exit exam from APSU last week and it silly, really silly. The test is really a tests skills test. They want to know how well you can work the system. St. Patricks day wasn't that great, it was fun but not the kind of fun that should happen on a night of good food and drinking. I couldn't even get to the bar to get a drink and so was forced to drink what ever beer was bought, and me and beer...... well I never got remotly drunk. There was a green shot of something and that helped but didn't really do the trick. In the end I was drop dead sobber when i hit the pillow at 1am. I had a great time with Tom and Liz though, we had fun watching the crazy people that were out and watching there friend make an ass of him self over and over again, I was having Tom flash backs. Saturday was shopping day, and I bought some clothes. oooooo new jeans. Sunday was dinner at Evan and Amanda's yummmm! Monday was a monday. Driving with Super-twit is starting to grate on my already worn nerves. With her constant reliance on her father and going on and on and on about her inane life I'm going to go fucking crazy. I went to her little house today and it is a whole. You couldn't pay me to live in that house, or in that neighborhood. I made the mistake of letting her father drive my car, he left it unlocked with the KEY IN IT!!!!!!!!! When i learned that I nearly killed him. My car may not look like much but its my F-ing car not to mention It can't be replaced. If want that car and no other car. But then again they just throw money at shit. Well enough of my ranting and raving about all things stupid in my life. I should be going out to dinner with Dana tonight but I have a sneaking suspition it won't be happening. Thanx for the email Big Windy.

Yeah really sorry about that, I had no idea that it was the 10th already. Sooooooooo.... really in the past ten days I haven't done much of anything other than finish like my umpteeth baby hat for the like 17 kids i know being born in the comming months or have already been born. UGH. I guess I am the only one out there with out the urg. No, no not saying that I don't want kids, or my friends with kids are doing something silly, I just haven't found that maternal instinct yet. Some times a catch a feelting glimps of it at work when I stick a reaaaaaaaly cute baby in the heel for its blood tests. Then I relise that its actually indigestion from the nasty coffee. But truely I'm kinda excited about some of my friends kids, Aaron, Emerald thats you. Fun people having fun kids, this is our goal. It just means I get to knit up some super fun baby stuff too. Ok back to my life. I've been at work a bunch. Took a friday off because I could, it was great, great I tell you. This week only lasted 3 days for me, because thursday was campus day. Yeah i took a god damn 200 question test yesterday. that freeakin sucked. Came home and wasted the rest of the day it was great. Then today Jen and i hit the big city in search of yarn. We hit up all three of the great yarn stores in nashville. i got some great wool to make a new felted bag, since mine has seen better days, plus I want to make it with longer handles so i can put it over my sholder. Like anyone cares about my knitting projects sorry about my ramblings. Well I'm pooped and i should eat some dinner, because its been about 7 hours since I consumed anything.

Fat Tuesday and a Fat lot of nothing

Yeah, sooooo lets see. Its fat tuesday and the last day of the month. Crazy, its already the end of the month. Though its has felt like nothing much has happened things are actually truley exciting, HAHAHAAA. Well then last night I had to corral a way ward cat. Tungstan managed to find his way out side via a pulled open front door. Stupid people. They can't seem to figure out the front of the building and so they pull on peoples front doors. Well thanx to an over load of weather stripping the lock didn't catch and one stupid person and doooom, out door cats. Well mr. cardon was toooo fat to get through the door. i was a little panicie because i didn't know how long that the door was open. i ran around and around yelling for kitties. Finally he showed him self, scared out of his little furry mind. I had to wrangle him inside, but when he heard his brother he ran right on in. By the time he made it in Dana was there and we got to work keeping kitties in. Well they did stay in. But most of monday was really uneventful. Work, drive, late, home. She can never get things straight, i don't know how hard it is after the first time you mess up. My weekend was pretty much a bust too, but I went to the grocery, woooooo. Today was another day of getting there late, and being freakin' bored. I spent the morning playing with antibodies in plasma, I played the cell game and it was fun. But there was a lot waiting around for things to incubate. I got a stick at another patient, it was good, two good sticks in two days. It is still fat tuesday as we speak, I had lunch up at the restaurant today because our cook is from LA, and he made great fat tuesday chow. I even got beads with out all the showing of body parts. Then back to the salt mines, ugh. Homeward, and then to going nothing, a bunch of nothing. So now then, Mike you have fun on that plane ride. Call when you get there. -ca
