That's so rude! They have no right to say anything about what you spend your money on. No one does! And how is it anybody else's fault if you get pregnant? What's the logic on that one? You're better off without that person!

Have fun at the show! He's the guy with the puppets right?

 

[karentan]

i was getting really wound up about it on friday, but now i've decided i'm better off without those 3 in my life. their loss.

jeff dunham was SOOOOOOOOOOO good! yeah, he's the one with the puppets, achmed the dead terrorist was great, and i just love peanut and walter. and jose.... on a steeeek!

 

[karentan]

i know its a bit cheeky, but is there any chance one of you guys could do me a favour?
i wanted to get a jeff dunham tshirt yesterday but they'd run out of the one i wanted. i can get them off his website, but for a $30 shirt, they want $31 to ship it to the UK. but its only $6 to ship to the states. is there any chance i could send it to one of you guys, then give you some money to send it over to here?

 

[jenny105]

The post before this last one was gibberish to me!

 

[karentan]

lainey knows who he is!

hows everyone's weekend been? we had a great one, LOVED jeff dunham, then sunday we drove up to silverstone race track because gary had bought me one of those driving experience thingys. got to drive a lambourghini gallardo, i think i got it to at least 120mph! it was good fun but way too short.i was just getting into it when i had to go back

 

[jenny105]

My weekend was good, considering I was sick all of last week! I had to work on Saturday but I went to Kris's afterward and on Sunday we went to Palisades Mall. It's huge, like 4 levels. They even have an ice skating rink! We had lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings, played in the arcade at Dave and Busters, and saw Oceans. It was nice to finally be out of the house!!

 

[karentan]

sounds like fun!
we had a great weekend and it was a bummer to have to go back to work yesterday

 

[jenny105]

Work always gets in the way of a good time!

Ugh. I just found out my SIL's mom is in the hospital. She had surgery and was due to come home today and now she's in ICU because she has a bloodclot in her lung. They're doing everything they can but if it moves...well, that's just not good. Keep her in your thoughts guys, thanks.

 

[karentan]

hope she gets better soon

 

[jenny105]

Thanks Karen.

 

[jenny105]

Soooooo...any plans for the weekend?

 

[karentan]

i'm working most of it. have been off work today, working tomorrow, off sunday and working monday. but monday is a bank holiday so its double pay so i dont mind doing it

how's your SIL's mum?

 

[jenny105]

I have tomorrow and Sunday off and it's supposed to be beautiful out. So my friend and I are heading to an outdoor bar tomorrow (they serve awesome sangria!) and on Sunday I'm supposed to have a family get together but I'm not sure what's going on with that.

Peggy (my SIL's mom) had another surgery to fix some of the complications. She's stable but not out of the woods yet.

 

[karentan]

so hows the sangria?!!
work was good tonight, busier than it has been recently so it made the time go quicker, but meant the store was a lot messier than it normally is, but we left not much after what time we should have done.
day off tomorrow, only thing we've got planned is to wash the cars (boring but necessary, my car is supposed to be white, it not at the mo) and i've gotta go drop my cell phone off to be repaired. its annoying the hell out of me at the mo.
working monday, its a bank holiday but its double pay

 

[jenny105]

The sangria was awesome! My friend and I split a pitcher and they didn't overload it with ice so it was about 4 glasses each. Yum! That was the first time I'd had dinner there too, their food is really good. Lots of seafood naturally. I had lobster bisque. YUM!

I need to get my carwashed. It's been a long time since the last one. It realllllly needs to be vacuumed!

 

[karentan]

i hoovered mine recently but just cant be bothered washing it!

garys getting WDW withdrawl, he's looking at cheap flights. it all started with him saying "we can fly out on thursday for £200"....

 

[jenny105]

When, when? October??

 

[karentan]

this thursday!!
but that idea is now out the window.
i desperately need to find out tomorrow if i can get a week off work at the beginning of june, 5th to the 12th.
DCL is doing a 7 night barcelona to dover repo cruise. its showing on the DCL site as $1666 for a cat 12, cast discount $644 hell yeah! all over that deal if i can the time off"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[jenny105]

That's an awesome discount! That's actually one of the cruises being offered for that $25/nt deal I'm always talking about! Hope you can get the time off!

 

[karentan]
