i'm so hungry i could ride a horse

yesterday was ash wednesday, so yea of course i'm super hungry at 1. normally it's 3, but i went in early to help out. overtime is gonna be sweet this check. of course, not only are we short handed (on 1st, mostly cause rika's training), but the volunteers don't open filter anymore so we have to. yea, that's real convenient right before hanging. anyhow, i'm also housesitting at cindy's across the street, so since the dogs gotta get up at 7 and eat, so do i. i normally would go back to bed, but what the hell, might as well get stuff done and go into work.

and the other day (sunday), we got some kick ass thundersnow.

just kidding. internet got blocked at work (stupid few people that ruin it for all of us), so i couldn't even if i tried.

saturday in the park town of peoria

last night i actually went out and did something. holly, andrea, mom and i issued a triple threat. shopping, movie and dinner. now i'm not much of a shopping....actually i SUCK. i'm better than i used to be. it used to cheer me up....but again, i went alone too. my mom, sister and andrea have a much different agenda.

after shopping we were off to see The Bucket List. dammit, i knew i'd cry. but i highly recommend it. not to sound cheesy, but it'll put stuff into perspective.

then as we were waiting on my mom smoking outside of the car after the movie:


mom: "i'll just finish this one..."

holly: "ok, we'll be right here waiting."

me: "just like richard marx."


then off to olive garden, which my sister got kicked out of (along with her friends) years ago for being drunk, HA! she's back!

me: (in the witing for a table area...the lobby?) "ok mom, after they (holly and andrea) get out of the bathroom i'm going in, i gotta pee."

mom: "well don't announce it....how appetizing..."




and later, at the table:


holly: "want more salad?"

me: "no, i'm saving for the (seeing the salad tongs and thinking 'lasagna') latanya."


* laughter *

holly: "what????!"

me: "actually, i think she works here"
