Recent Events
Went home for the weekend for doctor appointments and such for the most part. It was pretty good. My mom said that it looked like I had lost 10 pounds but when I went to the doctor, we found out that I had gained 4 pounds since my last visit in late March. Whoops. I got the standard I need to change my eating habits lecture from my dad before that though. I got another lecture/concern talk from my mom hit a wall of reality recently when one of her friends was diagnosed with cancer. She wants to know that I'll be alright if something happens to her. Blah blah, it was basically the same thing I've heard numerous times from both parents before. At least she kept up the tradition of giving me the emotional health talk on the last day of break ;-P.

Some of the more happier highlights of the weekend: saw 4.5 movies: Freaky Friday (really good, highly recommend), Uptown Girls (ugh, we overpaid for that one. Granted the tape was bad but I don't think a better copy would have helped), Out of Time (good suspense film. recommend seeing it once it comes out in theaters), and the .5 film was Bowling for Columbine.

Oddly, what I did Saturday is kind of escaping me. I know that at night I watched TV while working on my quilt. I have the second sheet done, now I need to sew them together.

I saw Freaky Friday with my mom and her friend Rema and her daughter Marisa on Sunday. We then went out to lunch and my mom and I went into this new (to me) store in the mall called Passion for Fashion. They had some cute stuff in there. I got these classy looking black pants that had a built in scarf around the waist and a nice top to go with them. Then Ashley came over. I was watching Bloodwork on TV when she came over so we watched the end of that, ate some pizza, talked about the bad old high school days (particularly how much the English classes suck), and watched half of Bowling for Columbine. About half way through she called her parents and asked to stay later. They said to be home in 15 minutes so we had to raincheck the rest of the movie.

I saw Uptown Girls and Out of Time with my parents on Monday night. During the day I worked on the DVDs. All I left is pulling Jessica's scenes from about 5 productions, and my parents childhood. Those will be fun to watch. Tuesday was two doctor appointments and celebrating my parents 32nd anniversary. I wore my new outfit to the resturant, and if I may say, I looked good.

Wednesday was another doctor's appointment. I also went to a couple Barnes and Noble that were sorta on the way home to see if they had any of my favorite authors' new books (they didn't). Came home and had lunch with my mom and then we went to pick up my car (it had gone to the mechanic on Tuesday to get an oil change and to get my trunk fixed). Then we played Scrabble (Mom kicked my ass). Dad got home relatively early so I could have dinner with them and then I picked up Randy and came back to SLO.

Today I worked from 8-5. I did go to Farmer's tonight. I saw quite a few people I knew while there: Joel from work, Matt's cousin Leigh, Justin and Amy, David and Jessica. I hung out with Jessica and her friend from work for quite a bit. We had dinner together and walked around until a little before 8 whereupon I split and went into Barnes and Noble to see if they had any of the new books. They didn't but I spent some time looking for new authors. I came out with 3 books after stopping to talk to Leigh for awhile. I went over to Staples to see if I could get the expandable shelves that I saw the last time I was there but I got there at 9:01 and they closed at 9. Figures.

Things I hope to accomplish tomorrow:
-catch up on my sit-ups
-drop off my perscription
-buythe shelves
-finish uploading the rest of my pictures to http://briefcase.yahoo.com/mathymandy@sbcglobal.net
-set up and put things on said shelves
-finish Hot Dog which I plan on starting tonight
*EDIT* -Figure out how to use a non-already-blank tape on my answering machine
-Cancel my voicemail
