Today was pretty sucky, mostly because of this foul mood I can't seem to shake. I got to leave work early, which was a bonus. I got all my work finished. My boss thinks it's weird that I just don't hang out to get that extra hour. Yeah, it's another 11 bucks, but I would have to sit in an huge office alone, with nothing to do.
No thanks.
On a better note, my mom said she'd go halvesies on a digital camera for my birthday! She's going to give me 150 bucks, which is more than I expected. Thank mom! This made my day! I'm so happy!
Speaking of moms, this weekend is mothers day. In my family, it's also a week of birthdays and anniversaries too. LOL I took my grandma her present yesterday. She seemed to like it. I hope so. It wasn't much, so I felt pretty pathetic when I gave it to her.
I have to pick up my mom's mother day present on Friday. I suppose I could've had it delivered, but I was paranoid it would get broken. I went with the cliche flowers bit. HOWEVER--I happened across a mothers day deal that includes a very pretty Fenton vase. Mom loves Fenton stuff.
...well, she likes fairy glass and eggs. I'm not so sure about a vase. I think she'll like it though. She better. It's all she's getting. Ha ha! ;P After I bought it I got kinda worried she already had a vase like it. I've been checking out the house whenever she's not looking. So far so good.
I also found the perfect present for my sister. Not for mothers day though. I have to find some other stupid reason to send it to her. Perhaps just from the sheer joy of imagining her face when she gets it. That might be enough. :P Sis, I need your work address! J/K

You didn't have to get me anything.
And Grandma did like her cactus, and I am sure mom will LOVE her flowers and vase. People just like to be thought of.
I am only sending mom a card. So you are way ahead of me. I am taking a cake with us camping. But I haven't mentioned it to anyway, because I was afraid a certain little boy might let it slip. ;o)

Posted by: Zoso at May 10, 2006 08:44 AMDid I miss talk like a pirate day? Or is that later this month?

Is it sad that I didn't even have to look it up?
Posted by: Jeff at May 10, 2006 04:12 PMArgh, matey, that it be! :P
But you know what's even sadder? All my nieghbors in Animal Crossing talk like pirates now. And my character is dressed like one, complete with eye patch and feathered hat.
Posted by: Zoso at May 10, 2006 07:10 PMCrap. I've NO idea what to get my Mom for Mother's Day. I guess no one ever turned down a bouquet, though...
