You know those frappucino drinks that you can buy in bottles?
Well, I just discovered that Godiva makes a dark chocolate mocha one. I haven't tried it yet -- but it is next on my morning agenda.
So far this morning I have walkied to the bank to order new checks - shockingly expensive - picked up a temporary check so I can pay my rent, walked over to the landlord's office and paid the rent, walked back to the corner to pick up odds and ends at Walgreen's, walked home - gone down to the basement to deal with the boiler and finally sat down.
My leg is sore -- and I will, no doubt, have to go down to the basement again but I won't have to do anything else.
All your Jessica are belong to me! Or...she WILL, at some point today. She's in town for a family thing, and we're going to get together for something lunch-y. Woot!
Unrelated to Jess, I have been having really annoying vertigo since yesterday afternoon. My ears hurt and feel stuffed up, so I'm sure the vertigo is related to that. I'm hoping it's just sinus-y stuffiness, and not an ear infection. But man, I am SO dizzy, even when I'm sitting or lying down. It's almost like having the spins when you're drunk. Not *quite* that bad, but close.
Yay Jess. Boo Vertigo
Tonight, I get to see Joan Jett AND Juliana. It's going to be J'TASTIC and made of awesome!
The way this morning is going, I am going to be needing an alibi before noon. Seriously.
Suzi, you were with me all day. We went to garage sales. But you left all the nifty junk you bought at my place.
This gives us both an alibi.
Or I should say, gives you an alibi, and me an excuse.
%#*^#
Eight more people just cancelled on mom's party. I have TOTALLY lost track of how many people are coming - at this point NONE of my cousins or other family will be here. I'm so upset.
{{{Suzi}}} That's awful. I hope they have damn good excuses.
They say they do...but whenever they host a family thing, we are always there, even if it is a subset of our family. These are my mom's sister's kids. Her sister passed away a few years ago so my mom is the matriarch of the family. She has made a point of being at EVERY family function, regardless of her health. There have actually been a couple of times where she has ended up in the hospital the following day. I know - not ringing endorsement, but shoot, family means going out of your way sometimes.
So annoyed.
lI have a TON of food and drinks and we may end up with, like, 10 people instead of the originally expected 30-40.
So last night I went to bed at 9:30ish. And when a friend called at like, 11, I swear I thought "Who the hell is calling in the middle of the night??" and then looked at the clock. Woke up about 6:30AM, and said "hell no". Eventually got up around...noon. Walked over to breakfast place and CVS. It's 2pm. Why am I considering a nap? Bleahhhh.
Also, is LJ broken for anyone else?
