evila_elfJust wanted to update you all before I forget everything...
Starting with Friday.
Friday seems like a long time ago.
Showed up to work super early to help clear out the last of the library stuff. The temp site is looking real good...all the books up, electronics almost all done. Just a lot of crap that we don't want to toss...chairs, tables, fans, etc.
Trish, a coworker, had this long stick that she was using to check the tops of shelves and things for stray items. Well, she found a...bladder bag? I didn't care to get a good look at it---bad with a long tube. And a pair of shorts. *shudder* and the tube was still dripping. She dropped the thing so fast and ran out the door. Just...freaking ewww!
So, we had movers haul one last load up to the temp site, and there was a bunch that needed to be hauled away to Service Center as surplus. I went to go see how Trish was doing...there had to be someone staying to watch it while movers were occupied because it looked like a giant yard sale, and as soon as I showed up, I was pretty much tagged into the position to watch all that crap. *sigh* So, for an hour and a half, I sat in this nice spinny chair that I pulled from the pile, propped my feet up on an old shelf, and sat there with my Pepsi. A few people came by, and I think I tried too hard to chat to them. Bored to death. I even ran up to a few people who were getting from their cars so that I could take their books to the book drop. Very nice outside...cloudy, breezy, chance of rain. I was starting to enjoy myself. Get back to the temp site, and I got to help clean a bathroom *sigh*
After work, I went home, fixed my hair (didn't do anything to it after morning shower), ate lunch, kissed the cat, then headed off...had a train to catch.
Planning a trip to Seattle to visit![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
michelleann68 for a bit, since both our birthdays are on Monday. Brought Peacock (my laptop) with me so I could watch something on the train. And it was wierd...2 hour train ride, and I only managed to watch an hour 15 minutes. I started soon after I got on, and sent a handful of text messsages towards the end...feels like an X-files ep and lost time somehow.
kk. So arrived at 7:00-ish--Michelle picked me up and brought Mils (her cat) with her. We dumped him and my bags off at her apartment, then went shopping. Going to see a play the next day, and she insisted I dress up...and I own nothing but jeans. The second place we went to had an okay selection. So I ended up with a pair of nice pants/slacks, a light blue small shirt thing, and a thin black shirt to go over it. (By the 'termanology' can't you tell I shop a lot? *snort*)
Then shoe shopping. Got something black and sparkly just before we were kicked out because closing time.
Got back to apartment and watched the newest Dr. Who, Captain Jack's first ep back, then bedtime.
And I will blab about Saturday...sometime later. Getting late and I have no idea what is planned for later.

Date: 2007-06-24 04:27 pm (UTC)we ended up with a pair of skinny cropped black slacks, a light blue cotton cami, and a sheer black cap sleeve camp shirt. then they kicked us out since they had closed and it took us over an hour to just get the one outfit. Which of course included a few girls on staff getting all excited and looking for the right size for you all over the store.. it was exhausting.
But the shoe store.. was faster, they were also rapidly closing.. luckily the guys worked commission and were motivated to sell us shoes..
You forgot the trip to Whole Foods for teeny tiny desserts and some apple juice, before we walked back (up hill) to my place.
and yes a long night .. but Saturday was fun :)
