The music was just awful (we come from different bands, but played together many years ago), but it did not really matter because we wanted to hang with eachother. We still had fun; possibly might turn it into a music comedy act. There is money in that too ya know.:frankiesmile: |

I got my PSAT scores today, and i'm very pleased. I got a 138 and was basically 50% higher than the most juniors on the tests. The only thing that sucked, is that I wasn't able to be part of the National Merit Scholarship Corporation programs because I'm not a full time student. (Another reason why it sucks to be disabled...) But still, at least I did well. :D |

Well I have all the episodes (in fact the eps on YT may have come from the set I've been distributing to fans for about a decade now). I meant if you had a super-exciting new link for downloading eps I would share it on my BJ site. That's all. :mfoster:

I beat nature! :blooevil: Mwa ha ha ha ha! I finally got into my truck with the help of my suite mate. And after going forward and reverse a number of times, I was able to get over the snow drift without anyone pushing me out (because no one had time to help me then). I'm now parked at a spot where there's no snow drift.

I got my W-2 tax form today, so I was able to file my income taxes and will hopefully have some money within a few days, although with Monday being a holiday, that could hold things up. Our school district normally waits until Jan. 31-the last day that they can legally hold onto our W-2's-before giving them to us, but I guess with the economy sucking so bad they figured they really better get folks those forms so people could get their refund money and put it back into the economy!

Today I did over half of my volunteer hours finished for this semester. Yay me!
Oh, and I watched Chowder today...that made me very happy. |
We jammed again tonite. This is the second time we got together. I do not expect things to come from it. The music again sounded like doo-doo (except the some of the blues numbers I introduced), but it did not matter because again, these are friends I rarily get to hang around.:frankiesmile:

As I noted elsewhere, I had an appointment with my accountant today. Three items of concern were on my agenda, specifically moving and replacing my furniture, acquiring a more powerful computer, and attending Comic-Con 2009. Happily, he told me that I can do all three. Kind of what I expected, really, but it's nice to have it confirmed. :)

Barack Obama becoming president.
I know that probably sounds pretty lame and uninspiring since everyone else has put something more specific and personal. I'm not one for politics or anything political either but this to me was a truly special event that I am quite pleased to see everyone making a pretty damn big deal about it. I think this is an amazing step for American culture electing Barack to the white house. I think he seems like a genuine, honest, and extremely passionate man who can really do some good and I have never been so happy and so hopeful for the future of our country as I have right now with Obama as president. |
Yes it was a happy day. We may be drinking in the last chance saloon but after today it seems easier to imagine that we really are all in this together and it'll all work out alright. Your man gave a good speech there which Churchill or Kennedy would have been proud of. He actually seems honest and sincere and has a nice family too.
Looking foward to meeting the Presidential Puppy. Does he/ she get a parade too? |
I concur with the above post - Godspeed to our new President!:frankiesmile:

We had a SNOW DAY! No school due to snow, yah! Gotta make it up later, NOT so "yah", though. But, it was pretty while it was coming down, and it gave me all day to set up my new computer and move files from my old one, which was on its last legs. I'll post some pics maybe later, although some of you might be sick of this stuff by now. It's the first measurable snowfall we've had in this part of SC, though, in ten years. We get ice, yeah, but not snow, not enough to actually see on the ground. Unfortunately, most of it's already melted, which is going to prove problematic tomorrow morning when I leave for work at 6 am, when the temps are supposed to be around 19 degrees F., and there's going to be a lot of "black ice" on the roads, especially out here in the country, where they don't bother with salting the highways.

My dad owns it, and he could care less what happens to it. The roof is starting to cave in on the front, and I can't afford to fix it up myself. pitbulllady |
Pretty. ;D
Shame. Nice lookin' house. :P |
I made a new friend on deviantART! They've been cracking me up on MSN, and we just seemed to naturally hit it off. That has made my day. ^_^
|
Lovely pics there, PBL. :) It is a shame that the house is being allowed to get run down. Such a beautiful piece of history being forgotten, is what it is. That makes me sad.
But since this is the What made your day thread, I'll share that I had a good day today. My foot doesn't itch, and I got two yummy burritos at the convenience store just outside my complex's gate. I feel quite content right now. :bloosmirk: |
What made my day.....
talking to people I care alot about. ^_^ that and singing on Rock Band (death metal!) |
One of my Powerball tickets turned out to be a $4.00 winner. Not much, but it's a nice way to start the day. :P

I ended up spending it on a pack of hot dog rolls and a bottle of Pepsi Max. :cheesegrin:

Time to pack. :frankiesmile: ;D |
Congratulations Cass! :)
Hopefully the neighbors are better at your new home. :frankiesmile: |
Congrats Cassi!! :yeah: Whoo hooo! I know how exciting and relieving that feeling is. That is so awesome! May you have the best of luck in the move, and may all your things make it to the new location safe and sound. Does the new place allow pets? :)
|
Congratulations, Cass. I hope that you'll enjoy living there a whole lot more than your current abode. :)

Hey well done. That was quick. You don't hang around! Japanese restaurants can be very exciting places too.
|
I'm really glad you're moving after all you've told us about your place. :P

Aside from getting out of here I think the part I'm most looking forward to is exploring the neighborhood. I know the area on a basic level but that's it. New things to see, new places to shop and dine, new people to meet... moving day is a hassle, of course, but the promise of adventure afterward makes up for it. :frankiesmile:
|
Woo, congrats, Cass! That's gotta be exciting! Nice to get away from there after all those stories you've told us, eh?:P
|
That it will. Today's horror story began at midnight or thereabouts, when an alarm clock/radio next door activated. Unfortunately there was no one home. I went to bed around 5:30 AM but naturally couldn't sleep. The police couldn't do anything, either. It took three calls to management, at 8:30, 9:30, and 1:30 PM, before maintenance did anything about it. After all that, they actually had the nerve to ask why I was leaving. ::) I slept for a few hours this afternoon and early this evening but I think I'll be turning in earlier than my usual 5:00 AM bedtime. :P
|
Yeah I remember once during Thanksgiving break at school a neighbor's alarm clock went off SUPER LOUD really early in the morning (this was in a dorm of course, and I never went home for Thanksgiving/my birthday because it was too expensive). I had to have security come unplug the clock so it wouldn't do that every day that week. It took them hours to come out.
