Guess what I found today!

and Publix had a sale which worked the packs out to 1.39 an 8 pack... My car looks like I have a drinking problem

I regret saying I wanted to go camping

Cause well after 2 days of no A/C and no Hot Water I am tired of "Indoor Camping" luckily I'm off tomorrow so I can whine to have the complex come fix my units...

I didn't need any excitement tonight really...

Sigh- So the maintenance team at my apartment complex moved several notches up the likeness scale tonight as they try to fix (or as I'm insisting- not let my apartment burn down tonight) my poor water heater and AC unit- Apparently the AC unit leaked onto the heater which caused it to spark and fry (*lovely* smell) so instead of sleeping (which somehow I don't think will happen tonight now..) I'm now killing time till they make it all better... All I can say is thank goodness I rent cause I doubt it'd be cheap to fix!

It's out to get me

So I think the rain is stalking me... Today when I was driving to work it suddenly started raining all I could see is blue sky and white puffy clouds- it stops then starts when I left my car to walk into work (from basically the last stall in the lot) and stops for the rest of the day. Tonightas I was walking back to my car, it was down pouring to the point I took of my shoes so I can wear them tomorrow and I doubt my jacket and pants will be dry for days- soon as I start the car it stops until I get home and walk to my house.. Downpours again and now its stopped again

What I did today

and I didn't take the picture so have less guilt posting it... but it only took 5 hours, 3 people and 3 trips to the trash to make the prop room look so good...

Prices went down?!?

I never thought I'd see the day that the pin prices went DOWN... I was looking at the price "ribbon" today and the prices seemed weird so I photographed it and checked it tonight... Sad (or good) part is I have no idea when that happened...

Cracker Jacks

So Mart had a special deal on Cracker Jacks this week and so I splurged as it had been awhile... I don't understand why they advertise their "prize" anymore because well last time I check a piece of paper you fold in half to make it "talk" isn't a prize... Least the Jacks were good

Last night...

0 for 2

So I think I'll start a collection of the "This launch has been scrubbed" tickets cause I am starting to wonder how we *ever* get the shuttles launched...

But I did get a nice night time trip to Kennedy (never thought I'd be there at 2 am) and am surprised the next launch attempt is July 11.. I feel bad for the tourists though who were excited to see it launch (cause while I may gripe and groan about the delay I'll be here in July)

I did get some decent pictures that I'll post later so it wasn't a *totally* wasted trip (though I did learn that the back roads to avoid the first 2 tolls are hard to find in the dark both coming and going..)

Favorite Quotes

So I came up with a fun idea of paring my favorite quotes with some of my favorite pictures-

Smarter than at least a 5th grader...

So we have the National Academic Challange kids this week which for all intents and purposes makes me want to give my college diploma back because I can't hold a candle to this kids... Today we stumbled upon their practice questions while looking for a logo to use, and well 1 out 9 isn't too bad (but it was an "easy" one) and we all got the same 1 right... So we then found the 5th graders questions and well we did a lot better with those... Made us feel better

Fries or Onion Rings?

BOTH!

Sometimes you wonder

How you make it though the day alive...

Today is one of those days- I have never had so many close calls while driving (and NONE of them remotly my fault...) First when I was in the outside turn lane the van next to me in the inside lane decided to go straight, then there was the car that decided to turn right to the side street from the next lane over and on the way home apparently MERGE was too hard a concept and two cars decided to play the "I'm not going to let you in" until the one on the left decided to switch lanes (where I was) Fun times

Is it November YET ?!?

and is it weird they are advertising it already?

Too many choices...

So I spent the evening at the MK to take a picture of the castle decked in its "Magic Colors" for the NBA Playoffs.. Sad part is I ended up with so many neat pictures I had a hard time choosing (and the pic that was going to be today got bumped..) Alas figured to share a few that while they may end up as '365' fillers- They are just too neat to not share :)



Go Magic?



Big Thunder




Liberty Square



I was always taught that this was a *very* unpolite phrase to tell people (Pretty much a sugar coated middle finger or the classic up yours) either I've been lied to for 8 years or someone in pin design has guts and issues..



Happy Birthday Donald!

The other World thoughts

So today I spent the day at Sea World and had a great time overall and a few things stick out...

1) And I thought Disney prices were bad... 3.25 for a bottled beverage (and ironically Pepsi park- NO dew) Kid's Meals were 7.29 (which did come with a lunch box but still...) but other things were decently priced (or a much better value) crazy! Add the nickel and dime-ing for everything- Yikes!

2) Backtracking- I think I ended up crossing the park about 4 times and most were not intentional just trying to see everything.. Having the 2nd Believe show rained out didn't help things...

3) New stuff- I was amazed how much new stuff was there to do from last time I visited (couldn't say the same for the MK if I visited every 2 years- meanwhile..) I *loved* MANTA and think its a great addition to the park, The After Dark stuff was nice (LOVED the Sea Lions Tonight show- I've forgotten how funny laughing at yourself can be (The show poked fun at all the other shows in the park, like instead of the Dolphins in Blue Horizons it was the Sea Lion, Instead of Shamu it was the Walrus etc) Shamu Rocks was great and Reflections was pretty good (Whoever thought putting huge light towers up that effectively block every view in the stadium needs to be shot) The Elmo and Abby show was cute and glad I caught it

I know there is more I was gonna mention but I'm tired so Ill think of it tomorrow

So true...

The last time...

I'll ever wear the teal... I don't think I'll miss it
