Party Time

Last night I had a few friends over to play cards and other board games. It has been awhile since I have done that so I thought it was about time that I hosted a party. The last one I had hosted was for Melissa's Birthday last year....I think! It's been so long! It's almost time for Melissa's Birthday this year! LOL

In attendance were Darcy, Scott, Melissa, Fonda (first time to my place), Tim, Andrea and Tara. There were others invited some of whom claim they don't know where I live and had no drive to my place, but who happen to live just up the road...but I'm not pointing fingers! LOL

We started off the evening playing Asshole (it's a card game) Scott and I don't get along on the best of days, then add cards to the mix and you have a huge competition and fight on your hands! LOL It was all in good fun tho. Most of the time we were so busy competing with one another that others would win because we wouldn't be watching them! They all get angry with me because I happen to be able to remember what has been played and what has not, they also claim they are going to take me to vegas and win them some money! LOL

We switched to Shout About Movies after we got tired of Asshole. Scott and I again on opposite teams (always a bad idea) and we of course were competing again. I was getting tired by this time.

A little while ago Tim and Andrea had a party at their place and while there I indulged in a few too many Vodka and Sprites and accidently broke a lamp (it's been a rough month and I don't wanna list all the thinks I have broke in the last month or so it would take too long!) I felt aweful about it, but Andrea kept telling me not to worry about it, but when you break something you always feel bad. Well last night after everyone had left, Tara came back in and said there was a skunk under neath by her car. Of course we all get up to go see, and as Andrea opened the door out goes Wink! She started after the cat, by this time I'm not worried about it, Wink has gotten out so much lately it seems normal to have her gone for a few hrs. Andrea felt horrible. I looked at her and said "we're even for the lamp now" LOL that was a big joke with all of us and part of the reason why Tara insists on calling me Crash.

Andrea and Tim wouldn't leave until Wink came back by this time it's about 130am ish or so. I was exhausted and more then ready for bed. However, knew I couldn't kick them out with Andrea being so concerned about my cat. At one point we lost both Wink and Nellie out side and I seen Nellie run for the first time ever! Boy does that cat ever have some speed when she wants to. I think the only reason I caught her is because she was out of breath after her big run! LMAO Anyways, Nellie was easy to catch, Wink....Not so much! At about 230am we finally got both cats safe and sound inside the house.

That is my story of my party, sorry for those of you who missed it! It was a good time. As for the ONE who doesn't know where I live, maybe you should come visit me sometime and you do have my number and by the way, there are cabs in this city so you never "don't have a way" to my house! :0P

Thoughtful


I didn't post about my flowers! I can't believe I didn't! I was so excited to get them!

The Monday after my accident I came home to a wonderful surprise. After starting supper I went upstairs to change (my normal routine) and I found beside my bed a wonderful arrangement of plants/flowers. I was all excited and was hoping they were from Jeremy. Of course they were, who else would get me flowers?!!!!

Finally!

I got my car back on Friday! Phew!!! Just when I was beginning to think it would never be back to me!

Friday was a hectic day for me as I had to work at the video store at 2 and my car wasn't ready until noon on Friday! Lots of running around to do.

Not to mention that while I had the Rental Car in my possession (damn Hyundai Accent) I bumped into the curb on Monday (during the snow storm) and wrecked the hub cap on the damn car! So then I had to go find a new hub cap for it, after calling the dealership and finding out it was going to be about 40 bucks for a new hub cap, I decided to just go that route. I get to the dealership and he brings the hub cap, but it's missing the center piece and I'm like, umm...well it has a center piece too. The guy says you need that too? I said yes of course. he said ohh that's extra. All together it was gonna cost me 73 dollars for the new hub cap. I was like holy hell, not gonna happen. I call the local junk yards to no avail, no one had a hub cap for me that would match. So I ended up going to get the brand new hub cap at the dealership and shelling out 73 dollars that I didn't have to spend on a car that is not mine!

My car stunk so bad when I got it back, I went to Shoppers and bought a Yankee Candle Air Freshener. Now my car smells like Lilacs and the stink! LOL not a good combination! Ahh well I smell more flowers then actual stink so I guess it's all good!

My car works good so far, so everyone keep their fingers crossed that I don't have any more problems.

I'm so excited that my front end doesn't have any bugs on it! The licence plate (they had to give me a new one) is sparkling, the whole car is wonderful! I have talked to it every day, Jeremy thinks I'm nuts, but I think it's something that has to be done to keep her happy! LOL
