angelakMonday:
I woke up early ENOUGH to go Ice skating. The Everett Events center was packed with bowling balls on blades… AKA, small children who do not watch where they are going or seem to care if you are going very fast. They still slide across the ice like bowling balls, ready to nail their pins---victims… YOU! I woke up slightly later than planned but still made it there for a brief hour skate. I wanted to be there two hours… but… after an hour with the kids and the slow older people… well, it was all I could take just to get out of there. Being MLK day, kids had the day off so everyone thinks it’s a grand idea to go to the rink.
I neededthe practice skating though. I still am dying to buy new skates. But not until I pay off my Camaro. [February/March timeframe!!!] I need nice skates…I NEED THEM. Well, no. I want them. I also want to get in touch with Cheryl [as no doubt I will….] and do stretches so I can not be little miss inflexible! So I’m curious as to Cheryl’s stretch exercises. Soon, I too, will slowly advance my skating skills from just backwards crossovers and forwards and fast skating, to spirals and bunny hops and maybe someday… umm… a waltz jump. If Jill has the mindset to do it, damnit, so can I. It just won’t be as beautiful, and it will take 100 times longer. [Because Jill makes it .. aside from Jeff and school… THE PRIORITY of her life.]
Moving on. I have some minor ice skating goals for the next year. I will make it my Monday madness. [Eventually I can call it Monday bruise-ness! Falling is JUST a part of skating and learning new things on ice!!] And maybe stretching and being flexible can be yet another thing I have in common with Cheryl! [Although Cheryl seemingly appears to be naturally a bit more flexible… but hell, I can get BETTER one way or the other.
Let’s see… after ice skating, we drove the rest of the way to Sultan. I parked my stenchy Eclipse in the garage at my parents’ house and turned on the ozone-ator. [it spits out o3 and neutralizes damned near anything.] Left it there all day. First before we went to my parents’ place, we stopped for pizza at the subshop in Sultan. We invited James and mom to eat with us. That was a lot of fun. Then we went to our noon-thirty date with Jeff-o [Jill’s bf] and Sean, Jeff’s brother. Sean apparently borders much of my blunt, cynical, profane characteristics. As he is also the youngest of three.
So, we shot the shotgun and the .22 rifles and had a good time. Here’s the few pictures I posted as of last night. Because I’m special, they’re of me.

So we did that most of the evening. Came back, had dinner… visited. All that. My car no longer reeks as of this morning when I did a smell check on my way to the office… Other than that… here I am at work. Facing yet another week! This week WILL be much better. I found out Chris will be gone most of February after the first week. That’ll be fine with me. Julie has only been a slight nuisance, as I shielded myself as best as I modestly know how and have read up on. I still need much work, and may be asking Bobby about good ways to shield at our next meeting. I’m excited for our next meeting and I wonder when he will get back to us on that. Productive was Friday, as I closed out a ton of PC Helps. Now I’m getting ready to finish a machine for Nancy. Yeay. Emailing Stan back and forth… and Tim and I will clean out the van… umm.. other than that… I will be hanging out with Joe later today. I FORGOT: THIS WEEK I get off at 5PM instead of 6… holiday week!!! How forgetful I am. I came in today at 7 instead of 8. I may be leaving at 4PM.. Gods that would be nice! I could do the laundry, clean house… and be ready for Joe! Not that the house is that messy….
There’s no such thing as too clean. *sighs* Time to go make sure the machine is all set for Nancy. She’s waiting.
