Moo, I cant take vacation by the hour. I'm sure I could probably leave early that day (probably being the operative word), but taking the whole day off sounds even better.
I'm hating life right now...
My washer is acting up. The selector for soil level keeps flickering through all the levels, and try as you might, you can't select one. SO I hit start and hope things come out in one piece.
Sandy, I hit on the Noah thread by mistake today, but I remembered your comments, so I read most of the whole thing this afternoon.
for DH finding a job. The paper Friday said the recession is over, but we might not feel it yet. No Kidding!!!
NAB, yay on getting close on the basement!
Current trip itenerary looks like this: FLy out early Thursday, get to Santa Barbara early afternoon, rent a car and drive an hour to Santa Maria. Then dinner with DS. Friday is graduation and probably dinner after that. Maybe wine country tour on the weekend and/or help DS pack his Uhaul, although he thinks he wont rent it till the last minute cause it osts money. He has buddies to help him pack. So unsure what to do. Sunday DD leaves to go home, and DH and I drive down 3/5 hours to DL. Off-site hotel across the street from DL. Spend Monday and Tuesday there, then leave from LA to go home on Wednesday. I'll probably take Thursday and Friday off work as well.
Dinner probably Monday night at Blue Bayou, I'm planning on surf and turf. No park hours are posted yet, so I'm not sure about anything. I checked out distance to SF from Santa Maria, but its over 4 hours north, so no go. I asked DH if he had any interest in visiting LV while we are out that way, but no, he doesnt . Neither do I really, not a great interest. It would be fun to check out the hotels, but that's about it.
I finally made a banana nut bread that didnt crumble to pieces when I cut it last night LOL. I think the secrect is to actually measure how much banana you put in. Mind you, the crumble bread was Delicious, but not very appetizing to look at. Haven't actually tasted the non-crumbly version yet, but I packed 3 slices in a ziplock to take to work tomorrow. Which I rarely end up actually eating, LOL
Gotta go get laundry out of the washer
I finished a work report I started Tuesday night (NIGHT) this afternoon to get it out of the way. I am seriously contemplating retirement and getting a job at
Walmart, except there are no jobs, LOL!
Awesome sleeping weather for August!!
This Bible Camp wants to spread the joy to the parents! 
Our priest talked about the Bachelorette in his sermon today, all about Jillian going to the fantasy suite with 4 different guys.
And that he wanted to write a letter to her....and say sex is sacred thing and it shouldn't be a factor in picking a man.
