Free Ice Cream Day
Aug. 4th, 2006 01:15 pmIt was free ice cream day here at my place of employment. I had a lovely chocolate eclair bar. Was a little disheartened - last time I had one was 7th grade and it just wasn't as good as I remembered them being.
Three of the new windows are installed. The crew is starting on the siding Saturday. Note to self - go to store buy drinks for guys. Taking lots of photos of the before and after.
Lowes pissed me off last night. Well, not Lowes, but their check acceptance company, whom I've already forgotten the name of. Since getting the home loan, weve spent a lot of money at Lowes. That's what you do with a home loan; you buy shit to fix your house up with. We had two carts full of little last minute things; nails, caulk, so on; about $350 worth. We get to the register and check out, get William's employee discount, hand the check over and the check third party agency declined it. I called Lowes and they will accept my check, and I called the bank and verified the funds are there. This 3rd party I'd never heard of before thinks I'm identity thefting myself and committing fraud.
So I've stolen my own identity. Just lovely. I can't access my funds now except for going to the teller window and withdrawing cash, and then hoping the materials don't go over the amount I withdraw. The nearest bank branch is on the South side of Fulton, 15-20 minutes away.
What a fuckin' pisser.
But... at 10 pm Laurie made my day by sending me new unreleased photos of Dan from Frauenfeld. Two smiles and a 'gasm and they're beautiful. Simply stunning. And large too, she didn't reduce the size via photobucket. I was probably whimpering and drooling, so of course William walks in and thinks I'm having heart troubles (which I was, really). He called me a pervy and walked away. Hhhmph. So I oggled some more, got myself all worked up, and then had to go to bed and he didn't want to do anything (again). Story of my life.
So now I've got to find some Jimmy Page stuff to outdo Laurie. It's getting tricky...
