I hear today we celebrate some dead guy who came back to life and is looking for brains, or at least I would think he is looking for brains, but what the hell do I know, I don’t even believe in zombies.
It has been somewhat of a long week; Monday has already talked about so let’s go to Tuesday which was the day I got to drive to Vancouver, WA to the Jeep dealership that is 22 miles away compared to the 8 miles the other dealership I have been going to, it took just as long to get there and it was a better drive, so that surprised me, and over all it was a better experience than I have had with this company, but I would still rather not ever have to deal with them again.
They fixed the noise and the rattle in the speaker and did it in 90 minutes compared to the 3 hours I was told it would take so that is super cool, but they ignored the clicking sound we hear when we make sharp right turns even though that was one of the original complaints I had with it so I still get to deal with that issue when the next service appointment is made.
Wednesday we went to Vancouver, BC and over all had a really good drive up, hardly any traffic issues at all even in Seattle and the border crossing took just 20 minutes or so and if you didn’t know, you now get stopped by Americans before you get stopped by Canadians… yeah, makes no sense to me neither.
Diesel was still in the hospital, everyone is saying it’s not the cancer this time; it’s the meds for the cancer that caused his brain to swell, he had been in the hospital since Thursday and finally got home Thursday night, so yet another week of hospital crap and some more of his side effects have become more apparent, he has lost feeling in his left arm and other issues I will not go into, but he is alive and trying to get on with his life as best as he can.
We stayed at the hospital for 4 or so hours and he needed to get sleep so we went back to the hotel and got back just in time for room service which ends at 9:30pm? Food was ok, but at least we didn’t have to go out looking for it. Than we had some good friends come over around 1030 and they stayed to 230 and we had a really good time with them, just drank and laughed and watched the police department do a search of the park across the street.
Thursday we ate at the café we always eat at and had the same waitress who we have had before and who I remembered I didn’t care for, but didn’t remember why I didn’t like her which I was reminded of when after we finished eating I realized my ass was soaking wet and when I told her my chair was soaking wet she said “Yeah, someone spilled water†as if I was the dumbass cause I didn’t know someone spilled the water… If there wasn’t 5 cops in there eating I would have told her off, that really pissed me off, you think that is something she should have taken care of when it first happen or at the very least told us it was wet and I should switch to another chair?
Anyway we head home and had a 50 minute wait at the border and stopped in Everett, WA to have dinner with other friends and that was a great, but short time. They took us to a local Blues/Jazz bar that served Southern food and it was really good. The 4 of us ordered one of every appetizer as well as Fried Chicken and it was just a really good and fun meal and we left around 7pm and got home around 11pm.
Friday was my only day in the gym this week and we had to buy some office supplies since my mouse and mouse pad both died for good this week, and nothing else really comes to mind for Friday.
Saturday we finished off more of the front yard, we moved more rock yet again, moved more plants, planted more plants and laid more rock, went back to HD for more rock, and after spreading that rock we realized we are still 2-3 bags short which we will deal with this week. After that we just chilled and tried to work on stuff at the desk, but we were both pretty exhausted.
Today we slept to 10am which is very very late and watched “V for Vendetta†on TV (Ignore the fact that I have the DVD not 3’ away but I was too lazy and decided to deal with the commercials) and so far that is the extent of Sunday.
I have a “MUST DO†list staring at me in the face and yet, I am too tired to care, so I think today is the day I think of zombies and just chill out.
