Good morning, just wanted to start an update, I'm not sure how much of this is going to get done, but I'll try to sneak in here while I working. I'm running these huge year end reports and they are taking a long time to pull. This came up on short notice and I'm trying to get this out but it's going to be pretty close.
I've not been a good updated so I'll give you some highlights of the last couple days.
Tuesday:
I worked like I do every single day. I really need a break! Thank God that I'm getting married soon so that I can go on the darn honeymoon. I've been working way too long without a vacation or any type of break greater than 3 days. After work Amanda and I went to Susan's basketball game.
Talk about a terrible game. Susan's team played horrible and it just so happened that the team that they played played their best game of the year. The refs called a pretty good game so I didn't even get to yell much and that makes me mad! Going to a game is cheaper than a shrink and I love to work off any stress or tension by yelling at the ref. I don't usually yell at the opposing players because I know that they are young and are going to make mistakes but the refs get it if they miss something or make a bad call.
Before the game Amanda and I ate at The Beef House. We have never ate there by ourselves and usually eat there with Amanda's dad. We tried calling/messaging her parents but neither of them got back with us in time to for them to go. It didn't matter, Amanda and I went by ourselves and had a good meal. The food there is really good and they have a great salad bar. I really like the place, too bad it is like an hour and a half away. If it was a little closer it would be great.
Wednesday:
Another work day.
In the evening nothing exciting happened. Amanda went to bed fairly early since she wanted to get up early and work on a presentation. I did eat Chipotle though, so there went the diet. Thankfully it was very very very good and I didn't care too much. If it would have been an off night I bet that I'd be a little more upset.
I'm also a terrible dog owner.
I'm also a terrible fish owner. You see, the fish tank has been bugging me. It's been so hard to keep clean lately and it's been bugging me. The water has hardly been flowing out of the filter so I change the filter yet water still barely flows. I thought that maybe the filter pump was going bad or something. The water has also been getting really cloudy and the algae is starting to build up. Last night I had enough and tore apart the filter assembly. It turns out that there was a huge clog in the little pipe thingy that goes into the water. Also, the pump impellar was pretty clogged. I cleaned all that up and turned the filter on and it worked like new. I then vacuumed out half the water, scrubbed the sides and then put new water in. Within an hour the water was looking good again.
That's going to be it for now...I haven't been able to type anything in the last hour or so...
