Well, started off this Labor Day weekend wanting to get so much done. Wanted to finalize some wedding stuff (did a tiny bit of that), wanted to get some Freelance Design work done (still working on that), wanted to exchange my cell phone that is constantly on the fritz (well, got that done, but it required tears and counting backwards from ten ALOT) and wanted to visit with my family and some amigos (got to do that, at least a little bit). It's just Murphy's Law I guess. Got a flat tire Saturday, and after getting that fixed up, was able to visit with my friend Jamie in Oklahoma which was great, but when I got back to Funky Town, filled up with gas, my transmission decided to take a holiday weekend of it's own. All this after I got a speeding Ticket on Friday. I shouldn't have been going 72mph, but gotta love the city of Fort Worth for refusing to give warnings, only tickets. And from an Australian cop no less! It was like getting a ticket from Mel Gibson without the anti-semitic comments. So off to the mechanic tomorrow morning. Bad thing is if it's the Transmission, then I can say so long to the joy that is having paid off a car loan (which I did a few months ago). The next car I get will be better I hope. So I go to exchange my sad little cell phone, which is only a measley 1 year old and is, like the car, on official holiday, but that turned into a mess with Cingular telling me they will have to 'penalize' me for trading in my phone too early. After they are the ones who lied and said that those particular phones NEVER get returned! I even threatened to leave Cingular, and I don't think I saw one eyelash bat, no 'let me help you, oh weary customer' looks on the fat ass manager's face. We promptly cruised out of that pit and went to the place Erik got his phone. They cell Cingular as well and for some reason they were able to help me with just a $20 upgrade fee. What do you F'ing know about that! Anyway, all that aside, it was a pretty good weekend. We have cool little gadget phones now, which have kept Erik and I busy the last few hours trying to figure them out! (and trying not to break them in the process) So hopefully tomorrow evening I will be able to get the Wedding Invites finalized, get some more Freelance cranked out and get rockin' on some more seasonal designs. Maybe I'll need Wednesday and Thursday too come to think of it. That's a laundry list! So I hope next weekend is as fantastic and productive as this one (wink wink) and that we continue to get some more of this much needed rain. The lawn is breathing a sigh of relief, as am I. It's bed time...
