Okay okay, once again we didn't go to Lynnwood for the car thing.
I was opposed to it since it was on Sunday and Sunday is my lazy
day, I didn't want to try and do something big right before the
week started. So we didn't...once again. :)
But we did go and get my car..and then I drove us to the entertainment
center guy's place. And well, it was crap. First of all, it looked
too cheapo to have. And second, it was WAY unstable. I put my hand on
it and moved it around, and the shelving moved with me. Uhhh, is that
supposed to happen? He said it was cuz he loosened the screws and if
there was a TV in there, it would weigh everything down.
I had Lar lean on it but it was still wobbly, so then he got the guy
to bring some heavy boxes to put in there. *LOL* But while he was
doing that we decided NOT to get it cuz it was just not for us and
he wanted way too much for it! Did he honestly think that this was
worth $40 initally? And even $30 now? Shit, I'd only pay $15 for it
if he told me to make another offer or something. Whatever.
So then I drove us around and we ended up in Ballard at Archie
McPhee's, this little junky store. Then home, but of course
I wasn't able to find any parking, so I had to park in W2. But I got
all antsy about it and wanted to go out so we did.
By the time we got back there was a spot for me, a little further
away from the apartment, but a spot at least! Tonight we missed out
on a primo spot cuz Lar didn't do an immediate U-turn to hold the spot
for me. Ah well.
So uh, this week was better. Reading is nearly impossible for my 2
CMU classes. Homework for psych is much better now that we are actually
doing computational stuff and not conceptual. I had an interview with
the Disabilities Office on Monday. It went well except that I
forgot a printout of my references sheet.
Tuesday was nuffin.
Wednesday was nuffin. We did get a free poster from the museum
so that was cool.
Thursday I start late, at 11.30. Usually I lay around until
then but that day I was antsy. So I got up and left at 10.30, I went
to buy my psych book (used, thankfully) and stopped off to look for
the new Radiohead ($14...too expensive for me), went to the Bookstore,
and finally I went to get my course pak. I got everything done and made
it to class on time.
He talked about the Golden Section, which was pretty nifty and
then I went home....only because I did all those errands BEFORE class.
HA!
Friday I had to make sure I got up early to overnight some
mail to get there tomorrow. UG. The wait wasn't that bad. But I was
dressed up again cuz I had my job interview over at Mary Gates. Classes
were boring. I don't like my CMU class, he's basically having US do
the sections.....cuz we had to sign up to be a 'discussant' for a
chapter and that's ALL we did today. UG!
Stats was pointless cuz they went over this sheet that we were supposedly
supposed to have done earlier in the week. And plus, this girl was
sitting in MY DESK. RAR.
I messed around for 2hrs...had lunch in the HUB, walked in front of
the TV during the M's game..Oopsie. *shrug* Then I spent the remaining
30mins before the 10mins before my interview in the MG computer lab.
My interview....was okay. It was 3 people asking me these hypothetical
type questions and I'm freaking internally while staying composed
outside. Did everything I say sound like shit? I'll only know next week.
But they were nice and I'd like to work in this nice new building. :)
I went to visit my former co-workers...namely the front desk girl
and we actually had good talks. I finally got home and just vegged.
Here's my phone!
I'm gonna end this now since it's actually Monday and I'm finishing
up this entry. Another one with weekend stuffs will be coming later
in the week. Later!
