leighblack: (T-Rex - Why am I here?)
This weekend in a nutshell:
* I finished my holiday cards. I just need to slap stamps on them and send them out.
* I got a new car!
* I helped my parents set up about 8000 illuminated snowmen in their front yard. (Thankfully, they refuse to buy the blow-up ones.) We still don't have any snow here though.
* I went to the Half-Ass Jack gig at Nick's on Sat night, instead of the L.A. Guns show. There was the usual crowd of scary, drunk old people. [livejournal.com profile] auroram had the bonus of one of them sneering at her for no actual reason.
* I cleaned out my old car yesterday. Even though many of you have seen how messy it was, it actually didn't take that long to clean out. I moved only a small amount of actual car-related things into my new car. Everything else either was taken into my apartment or tossed in the dumpster. I'm okay with getting rid of the CD player since it was pretty crappy, but I am thinking of ripping out the speakers from the doors since one of the speakers on the Aveo seems to be somewhat wonky. They should be the same size. The car is getting donated to Volunteers of America and I guess they're picking it up sometime next week.
* I was going to actually do laundry, then realized that I'll be dog sitting for five days beginning on Wed. Why would I pay to do laundry when I'll be able to do it for free later in the week? Duh.

That's about it, I guess. Not very exciting. I bought floor mats, a steering wheel cover and other misc stuff for the new car. And other things for me. I only have one more Xmess present to buy, so it's okay to buy some things for myself.

I only have three days of work this week! Score!

since everyone else is doing it...my xmas stocking )
leighblack: (Me - Me & Early)
Ha ha. I introduced my mom to the wonders of MySpace tonight. We were working together and I mentioned that I had set up a MySpace page for Riley. So, when I brought her home after work, I went in and showed it to her. After she had been ridiculing me all night about setting it up, she then decided that she liked it. Well, duh. I made it cute. And Riley is pretty damn adorable! =)

She also thinks Churro and Veda are pretty cute. But she doesn't get why other humans would friend my dog. Why not? He's cute enough to attract lots of people. ;)

In other news, I was going to post about this earlier but forgot. Saturday was 12 weeks since I started SparkPeople and I've officially lost 26 pounds. Not too shabby, I think. Actually, it's pretty good since I fully admit my exercise regiment has gone severely downhill lately. Not just because it's winter but also because I'm working so much. I really need to get a treadmill!
