Random Tuesdayness - I've Gotta Be Sneaky

Ok, so the Random Tuesday badge isn't working and I don't want a broken link in my post, so I'm not including it today... don't hate, just get over it. And I've gotta be sneaky cuz I'm at work... good thing the bosses are sitting in their office (yes, they share one) with the door closed! Go talk to Keely if you want to play.

Have I ever mentioned where "Vumpire" came from? Auri's kids, mostly T-Bug, calls Vampires, Vumpires. Not really on purpose, that's just how he says it. Aidan does, too, and it cracks me up.New Moon in 16 days, 9 hours, and so on... except, I think this is based on the Eastern time zone because that's not exactly right from the Utah time perspective... even though I'm in Alabama right now. But yeah, seriously, I'm getting so excited. And I now have three sweatshirts to choose from to wear to the premiere. Are the rest of the crew going to get them, too? Not sure yet, but if we do, I'll be sure to take pictures!

I hate setting the cruise control on the car, only to have to accommodate all the freakin' idiots out there who can't drive. The purpose of cruise control is to cruise, not to have to adjust the damn thing 472 times during the 1.5 hour trip. Jeez!

By the way... how is it possible to be aroused 24 hours a day? I just don't get it. It's sooo not fair!
So, I'm in Alabama this week. I get to go home for two days and then am in Alabama again next week. The week after that I get to stay home and work. The following week is Thanksgiving, so I get to stay home that week as well. The following week is the week of my 30th birthday (Good Lord, I can't believe I'm gonna be that old!) and since I'm heading to Vegas at the end of that week, I don't have to come to Alabama that week either! Can you believe it?!

Sometimes things just work out, and sometimes they don't. For the most part, things have been working out for me and that makes me happy.I was driving back to Birmingham from Montgomery last Friday and stopped in Small-Town USA to grab some lunch. I passed by this building on the way and was cracking up. On the top floor is a knight's armor (up in the top right corner) and on the floor below it is a giant metal dinosaur (kind of in the middle there). Don't ask because I don't know!I work kitty-korner to the left of the Capitol Building... isn't it pretty? All the buildings that surround it are painted that stark white, and when you step outside on a sunny day, you better have some sunglasses handy.

I plan on coming home from Vegas on Sunday night, so the bosses said I could work from home on Monday. I have to come back to Alabama on Tuesday and spend an entire week here! I don't even get to come home on the weekend... no fun! Oh well, that means I'll have over two weeks at home for Christmas, so I can't complain! That was a lot of random travel facts, hope I didn't bore you.I had my kitchen chairs delivered finally last Thursday. When I got home Friday night I was just happy to see I had kitchen chairs. Five minutes later I realized they had delivered the wrong set of chairs for the 2nd effing time! Are you kidding me? Seriously? I ended up going into Ashley Furniture on Sunday to point at the original chairs I ordered. In fact, I need to call and see if they got the change order processed so I can get a new delivery date! Effing morons, I tell you! Those are the chairs I ordered to go with a slightly different table from the same collection.

My hips hurt like you don't even know. I wish I had an explanation for why they hurt, but sadly, I don't. I wish I could just lie in bed and work for the rest of the day. That's how much pain I'm in. It's sooo not fun, let me tell ya. Then Aunt Flo decided it would be a great time to visit, so the rest of my body is unhappy as well.I want to share some hotties from my books with you, but I have no idea who I'd cast to play any of those vampires. In fact, I have a hard time even imagining what their faces look like. Hot bods, I can tell you that much, but I can't get my brain to dream up much more than that!

Well, enough rambling from me today. I should get back to work, even though I really don't want to! Better yet, I need some lunch! I hope y'all are having a fantabulous Tuesday and I'll see y'all soon!

PS It's impossible to use cruise control here either... as soon as you've flipped the paddle the car infront of you will start braking!!
