Sometimes in the morning when I am leaving for work or school Lucy realizes what is going on and hides under the bed because she doesn't want to be confined in just the sunroom. This morning as I was getting her food to leave in the sunroom with her she figured out what was going on and hid under the bed. It was bad; she wouldn't even come out for treats or anything. In times like these the only thing that works is using the word w-a-l-k. I spell it because Lucy understands it if I don't. So I asked her if she was interested in going on one and then opened the front door. She came around the corner slowly and approached suspiciously. As soon as she got to me I slammed the door and tried to get her. She was off like a shot with me in hot pursuit. We ran into the bedroom and just as she was halfway under the bed I dove a grabbed her hind legs. I dragged her out and took her to the sunroom with her growling the whole way. Victory was mine...at least for today.
I felt like I was a pretty efficient worker today. I did the light plots, changed the blue and green gels in the cyc lights, and moved hard drives to my new computer...all in one day! Joe brought me a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit, which I was fairly excited about. It wasn't until I read his blog that I realized I almost was stuck with a chicken biscuit. I wonder why he didn't tell me the story...probably so I wouldn't read his blog and be like, "I already heard this." Sometimes when I want to tell him a story that was in my blog I have to ask; "Did you read my blog yet today?" It's really a kind of strange part of our relationship.
I left work right at 2:30 today and came home. I took Lucy for a w-a-l-k right when I got home because I didn't want her to be disenchanted with me. After that she hung out in the front yard with me while I did a little yard work. Our bushes seem to be doing well, but some of our pansies don't look so good. Mostly it's the ones under our Maple tree, which makes me wonder if the tree sucks up all the water. Oh well, it looks fine without pansies anyways.
Kristi got home around 6:00 and we left for the Boyds' house. Karen made dinner and then we passed out candy to the kids. Well, I didn't really pass out candy, but I did look at a few of the costumes at least. Chad and Jaime came and Chad brought an amp he just bought. It is a little Fender Princeton Reverb tube amp from the 80's I think and it is pretty nice. He got a great deal off of craigslist...unlike my weedeater. I am excited about micing it up on a Sunday, but I think next time he plays I'm not running sound, so sadly I'll have to wait.
After we came home Kristi and I just watched TV together. I just finished watching the movie "Fun with Dick and Jane" which I had never seen before. It was really funny, so much so that I laughed out loud sometimes. Kristi had seen it, so she fell asleep before it was over.
Tomorrow is going to be rough because I have to get up before 6. There is a conference at Southside that Joe and I are working, so I will be there all day. I am really disappointed that I don't get to watch the Clemson game. I actually want to watch our games now, and I won't be able too. Oh well, maybe if we're done early enough I can catch the end, and either way I can see S. Carolina lose to Tennessee later on in the evening. This year just hasn't been a good year for watching football with my schedule. I guess if I had to pick though, at least it's on a year when we're terrible. Maybe tomorrow Dabo will pull out his first big win...I hope so.
