I just spent over 400 bucks this afternoon...

50 on fuel. Check.
210 on ABH. Check.
60 cash out for an appointment tomorrow. Check.
-
320 so far. Following me?
I spent over a hundred on nice 'casual' clothes for going out, plus some overalls for work. Check.
Plus a 52 some odd dollars on my monthly internet bill. Yikes! O_o

Time to watch my spending!

I booked my hair appointment for tomorrow this afternoon. I'm gonna miss a little work, just to get in, but that's okay. I already let the boss know.
Basically, I'm completely ready for going out this Thursday night. WooTness!

Jamie starts her next course in home schooling this week. She told me she's taking every Wednesday off from now on, which is good. It will let her get two days of work, a rest day, and two more after, then her weekends for school. It's a good mixup and blend of school, rest, and work I think.

She didn't make it in today at work. No, she was up all last night, sick. She came down to me this morning, joking that she MUST be pregnant. ^_^
Oh Jamie, you silly goose. Go see a doctor, you stubborn little silly! I think eating TWO Happy Turkey Day meals, day after day in a row, may have somehow lent a hand in things like that.

So, I guess she'll be going back this Thursday to work then, since she's scheduled to take tomorrow off. She's damn lucky her boss is letting her continue working after missing so much work, and refusing to work at the Scaffold Yard. Damn lucky. But I think Gary knows that I would be furious if Jamie was fired. Relieved that she wouldn't HAVE to be there anymore, yes, but furious as well, since she does still want to stay at the plants.

Despite the usual, obligatory family feud at John's house the night before (between Richard and Chris), it was a great evening. I had a nice, full beard (gone today), and Jamie was dressed up VERY maturely in her business-woman clothes and new haircut.
John's place is constantly flooding now, for some reason. His basement drain pipes are backing up, and the ground isn't even frozen in frost yet. Everytime I think about it, I keep getting flashbacks of that horrible New Years' Morning we had two years ago... when our basements flooded at least a foot deep with sewage. >_>
I had a few chats with Chris, said hi to Rich and John, and just basically hung around all day. Jamie spent a lot of time with her dad and her brothers, and John's food really was fantastic. Like last years.

I feel almost guilty going there, just me, when the McDavid family there could invite other people. I'm not really that special. I mean, just Jamie could have went. I'm not technically part of their family or anything.
But I am grateful that I was invited.
John calls me his 'adopted son'. Jamie practically dragged me away from my room to go see her daddy. Chris and Richard still call me brother. It's just unreal at times, y'know?
Why wasn't Tony or Steph invited? Why just me?

Today I'm freaking out. Nerd wise. Well, I know it's sad, but I did rejoin the guys who play World of WarCrap. There's a huge patch, or update, to the game today. I had everything loaded up, the new files installed, this morning before I went to work. Unfortunately, even now, like this morning, the realms are all down. Some pop on and off, and for a brief moment, I did play on a different server, practicing to see what the new hairstyles and professions are like. Inscription is only trainable at level 5 for a whopping amount of cash (85 copper instead of just 10). Barbershops let you change some features and hair styles now for a mere 5 copper (I like that!). And all the talent trees have been revamped.
But...
Right now, the realms are all still being goofy, preventing me from logging in. >_>
Bummer.

I wanna play. I wanna sleep. I wanna go to work, just so I can leave early and get my hair cut.
I'm on the edge of a senseless frenzy, and I like it! >_<
(Full Moon again tonight. They last 3 nights in a row every lunar month.)
