Splendiferous!
Aug. 13th, 2005 01:21 amSo the day started off well because I only had an easy assessment and a home visit scheduled. That's all. Nothing else. The assessment was at 8:00 and the home visit was at 10:30. I was out the door at 12:30 and never looked back. My Jennifer and I headed down to RI to close out an OLD (opened in the 1950s) bank account of my dad's (I was co-holder, apparently) which gave me a little bit of free money. Yay, free money! Then we did a little more work around the house, like take the pictures off the wall and move them somewhere else, and bag more trash. We're also trying to get similar items in the same room to make it easier to sell off later. Progress.
Anyway, we went to dinner with my grandparents and then headed over to my childhood parish's carnival, which was guaranteed to be a cheesy good time. We walked around with my grandparents for a little while and played this quarter gambling game where I think we ended up losing 75 cents total, though we played a lot. GO US! After my grandparents left (and she slipped me $5, woo!), we went to play some other fair games. Jen and I decided to play one of those head-to-head Whack-a-Mole games, and out of the 8 or so people playing, she and I tied for the victory so we both won stuffed animals!
We met up with Laurie and her new girlfriend, Lisa (man, I can't keep them straight!), and continued to play fair games and won two more stuffed animals! We were the carnival champions tonight, it was so awesome. I even won a stuffed animal for THROWING FOOTBALLS, which is comical because I can't throw a football to save my life. We also ate some fair snackies and then went to Applebee's for a cocktail and some more snackies. YOM YOM. Then I drove home, The End.
But aside from getting out of work early, nice weather, free money, and carnival fun, there's more!
1. It was ANTHONY!
2. We gave one of the stuffed animals to my grandmother and she was quite happy.
3. I got more tomatoes from my grandfather's garden.
4. I just got kisses on the mouth from Daedalus.
5. I ran into a girl I knew quite well in high school and she totally didn't recognize me at all!
I really had fun with my grandparents today. They are really rockin' old people!
