Sheep Guarding Llama

After staying up late playing AoE2 last night, I would have liked to have slept in but that wasn’t in the cards. We needed to have polo shirts picked up to be embroidered for the show this week and Min was sick yesterday so I had to get up at 8:40 this morning and go to Target and get them. Luckily, Target had just enough shirts left that I was able to get them. I tried both Walmart and Target and there were hardly any navy blue polos there at all.

I ran over to Leicester to drop off the shirts and visited with grandma and Shirly for about half an hour. Tomorrow is grandma’s birthday. She is going to be 89.

While I was up in the city, I manage to get Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo which I have been looking for for a while. It is the last Herbie movie that I need for my collection until the new one with Lindsay Lohan comes out. You have to love Herbie movies. I also got the movie Say It Isn’t So with Chris Klein and Heather Graham. Walmart had it in the second tier bargain bin and I had wanted to see that when it released so I thought that that was a good deal.

Min and I ended up watching both new movies tonight. Herbie was Herbie, Dean Jones is always funny. I just like old Disney “feel good” movies. Of course, I call it old but it isn’t as old as I am. That is hard to believe when you watch it. Say It Isn’t So wasn’t bad. It was a bit gross and childish but overall it was enjoyable. There were some really good people in it and everyone did a good job. Orlando Jones is SO funny always. I wish that he did more movies because he is so consistently fun to watch.

I had a phone interview with Corning today. I spent the twenty-four hours leasing up to the interview reading the 512 page book on the interview topic in order to prepare myself for it. The interview got rescheduled three times in the past twenty-four hours and then they had phone coordination issues when we finally tried to have it. But we finally managed to pull it off. It seemed to go all right. Interviews are always hard to tell how well they go. I got the impression that they were interested but I wasn’t sure, they may have just been being polite. The person that I was supposed to be interviewing with bought a new house and was busy moving and so they weren’t able to do the interview with him today. That was a pain because this was really an extra, useless interview that doesn’t really mean much of anything. So, we will see what happens.

Jeremy had asked us to schedule an AoE2 game tonight. So we did but he ended up being the one who opted to go to the school dance instead of coming to the game. But Tony and Josh came over. So we ended up playing all evening.

Another busy day of job hunting. Things are going well on that front. The phone is pretty much ringing off of the hook around here. I have been getting just tons and tons of calls. That is really encouraging. It is nice to know that I am still in high demand. Actually, I am in higher demand now than I was just two months ago when I started looking at the Albany position.

Min came home from working at the hotel and we went out to breakfast with dad at the Omega Grill. I didn’t get to bed until really late and I had to get up fairly early so I only got about three hours of sleep. So it was a heavy coffee morning.

I wanted to relax a little tonight so I watched The Prince and Me and Passionado with Jason Isaacs. Jason is an awesome actor. He has been getting a ton of work the last couple of years. Both movies were pretty good.

The hamster’s cage needs to be cleaned but he doesn’t feel like getting up so that I can get at his cage so I am staying up excessively late waiting for him to get up. He has been sleeping later and later recently. That is getting to be quite a problem because we almost never see him anymore. I am not sure if it is because he is getting old or if he is just taking advantage of the winter months or what. He is only a year and a half old so I don’t think that he is too old.

The hamster finally got up around 4:30 am, way too late for me. So I finally got around to cleaning his cage and managed to get to bed around 5:00. Boy was I tired.

Ah, the weekend. I need it this weekend. I really need some time to relax. Not that I really get to relax, but at least I get to spend time updating SGL and downloading training content off of the Internet.

I am feeling better today but it is awfully depressing to have been planning on moving for a job and then not get to go at the very last second. I am glad that I took some time off to relax last night, I needed it.

Andy was gone when we got up this afternoon (yeah, you heard me.) So I don’t know what he is doing today. I know that he had to get Tony home around 11:00 this morning so maybe he is doing something out in Avon. Min went down to the theatre and is watching The Simpsons Season Four.

I spent most of the day relaxing. Not much happening today.
