I got to work at 7:35 today. There must be something wrong with me. Not only that, but I woke up at 6 and cleaned the house for an hour. The only stuff left to do is dust in my mom's room and run the vacuum. And I still need to empty the dishwasher, I'm sure. The Russian is taking today off to work on the preschool's playhouse.
This means it's a miserable day at work. Not only is he off, but Cindy and Cliff are both gone, too. And I'm running low on projects. I have 9, but I'm waiting on someone else on all but one of them. I should have brought a movie to watch on the laptop or something.
Maybe I'll make up my food list for the state fair tomorrow, heh.
I know we're going to have a fried banana at the Filipino booth, and cheese curds. So far that's it. No Vose corndog this year, or Cullers fries. And def no ice cream. After I thought about it, I decided that was crazy, and a waste of perfectly good stomach space. And absolutely NO egg on a stick. I think that one's going to flop. Everybody I know has been to the fair, and nobody's had one yet.
My one big hope for tomorrow is that the Vitamix chick is back in the as-see-on-tv building. She wasn't there last year, and I really missed her. :(
Anyway, the food game is that I'm not eating anything that I've 1. ever had at the state fair before and 2. that I can obtain easily somewhere else. Cheese curds are on the fine line of number 2, but Cindy swears they're the best ever so I'll try them.
My mom says she'll ride the tilt-a-whirl. Ain't she excitin'!
My venus flytrap is doing ok. I still haven't fed him, I'm kind of afraid to. I think he freaked the bug sprayer out the other day when he was here. I asked him if he could bring me by some snacks, but it turns out that vft's probably don't care for chemically killed bugs. Who knew? (Of course, some of you may remember that I once killed a VFT by feeding it raw hamburger. I say that as though cooking it might have mattered.) I still live in fear that I'll come back to work some Monday and it'll be dead. I will be sad.
Still working out spam issues on the server, but it's a lot better. I'm still averaging a little over 50%, but 80% or so of it's getting blocked. If you sent me an email and I didn't respond, mail me and I'll look for it.
It's just NOW 9am. Ugh.
