so…a mini vacation recap
wednesday: ran all the errands i neglected to run over the weekend and early part of the week. went by the parents house for dinner, so my dad could transfer the pics he took on my new cam to his computer. headed home after. sanded and spray painted wooden tables in the dark.
thursday: went down town shopping to possibly pick up things to decorate the tables with. work party at the terminal in the evening. picked up james to head out there. did work which included picking up/setting up tables and saws…spent quality time with russell in the terminal while everyone else was out taking apart saws…sat in the terminal by myself in the dark for a half hour. creepy. lol. but my new project is going to be wonderful i decided. thursday night came back to the house and worked on decorating the tables, james finished his nucular painting.
friday: james and i went to this grant information seminar that was mandatory if we wanted to apply for this type of grant to fund the terminal art show…back to the terminal in the evening to help yuri pick up more chairs and stuff for saturday. got fed at the ukranian hall, which has a zhitnik jersey that he signed in…ukrainian. i thought it was pretty cool. and i ate perogies and gwumkie?!?!… mom will be proud. back to the terminal with the chairs, then we left to jasen’s to play poker. i lost first, james lost 2nd. they made me deal of course. haha.
saturday: picnic on the plaza which was less than extraordinary, but i had way fun. it included the below pictures. brian asked for a hot chocolate the size of james’ head, and that’s what he got. him drinking from it never got old. buca’s afterwards as is tradition. had a fun time, i thought. glad brian seemed to enjoy it too, since he was a buca virgin and all, i was worried he might not like it. everyone was too hyper from giant hot chocolates and red wine so we went to jasen’s again and watched Friday. funny ass movie. macaroni!
sunday: back to the terminal again (that’s 4 days in a row i just realized…) to take around a photographer from pittsburg. i had wanted to stay only from 1-3…left at quarter after 5. wasn’t going to go up to the roof, but ended up on the roof. but! i finally got access to the clock floor AND the clock rooms….gaaaah. i call that floor for my apartment when we turn the building into lofts. and when we were on the roof we saw a group of punk ass kids on the roof of the baggage building, so james went on down to crack some skulls…lol. headed home shortly after that. then work. which was boring. except for the black guy with the black white sox cap walking around who i thought was dr dre each time i saw him.
i had a really nice 4 days off. had a great time spending time with the people that i got to spend time with. it was really lovely.
flooring tomorrow, dealing tuesday, 10-6 dealing friday, 9-5 flooring saturday, flooring sunday. and no 4-midnight shifts BLAH. i was really hoping for some. tomorrow is sleeping in finally, and depending on what time i get up, going to pick up photos from color tech. i hate driving all the way out there.
