glass-half-full shit

yesterday's post was a bit bleak, so today i'll post about happy stuff to balance it out.

we took zoe to the vet the other day. she weighs 93 lb now! i watched the scale go up & up and i felt this surge of pride, as if i personally made her huge.



steve stayed home from work today so he told me to email him if there were any errands i needed him to run. i sent him the following list:

1. buy corn on the cob for grilling
2. test camera batteries
3. build us a patio
4. go to CDepot and try to find me a copy of Paul McCartney's Flaming Pie album
5. teach Zoe not to bark at children
6. make ice tea
7. bring me lunch at work
8. find me a new job
9. make friday arrive faster

i was only serious about the first two, but steve showed up at work with lunch & Flaming Pie. what an awesome husband.

only four days left until this:



and this:



and a view that looks sort of like this:



WHOO-HOO!

AAAAHHH! GLASS HALF POOP!
We MUST do some eating before or after the trip so I don't explode.

Maybe we could use this blog to coordinate our schedules so I can see people!

I am free Thursday after 5pm, Friday after 9pm, Sunday after 1pm and Monday before 9am.

Anyone? Anyone?

Oh yeah, I'm also free Monday after 5pm (not sure who is still in town then).

monday evening might be a possibility...but i say that without having any idea how long it takes to drive from franklin to CH. we need to be at the airport around 8:30/9:00 but if we could have dinner first, that would be rad.

so no chance of a friday morning rendezvous at elmo's? our flight gets in at 7:50 in the AM.

You didn't have a copy of Flaming Pie? Whaaaaa? Wtf? No mountains for you! BTW he has a new album coming out in June but I have it RIGHT NOW and it is TEH AWESUM!!1!

I was going to suggest Friday morning Elmo's as well. Hopefully we can get back in time for dinner Monday as well... We can have breakfast Monday at Sunset and just leave from there... make it back in plenty of time (and plenty o'toole)

Here's a plan--why don't you call me when you get to Elmo's on Friday, then I can see how work is going and possibly leave for an hour or so. Then Monday you can call me when you're back in town and we can try to squeeze in dinner before your flight. Yes?

Courgette Aubergine said...

yes.
we will most definitely call. it would suck to fly down there & not see you.
