Well, here it is, 8:56pm. I am finally off of work for the day, showered, in my jammies and enjoying a beer :) Smirnoff Ice Pineapple, to be exact. My day was fine, hectic and very busy, but all in all it was OK.
The morning started off nicely with the findings that all but one of my tomato plants are now in bloom :) as are my peppers and strawberries :)
I made it to work with no delays and even paid my bills this morning. The first four and a half hours of work went smoothly and quickly.
Thats when things got hectic.
Just as I was leaving for lunch the phone rang. I answered it and it was my friend from work. bawling. It was raining pretty darn hard out and he has a nice, very fast car so my first thought was OMG you wrecked. Well he didnt, which is a good thing, the only thing I could get out of him is that he was gonna be late to work. Later turns out he couldnt make but I cant blame him, I even told him on the phone that it didnt sound like he should come in.
Then my mom calls.
She tells me that Jeremys friend that was keeping his stuff in MT for him dropped it off at moms house and she wants to know when we can come get it. right. with my imaginary car.
That she knows good and well I dont have.
So we get one of our friends who is heading up this way soon to get most of it. still. kinda stressfull.
Then I call Jeremy.
He gets stressed because of the "stuff" situation and also angry that when paying the bills thismorning I didnt pay all of the power bill. Just most of it. SO I call the power company and payed the rest of the bill. Then I get an apology :)
Then I go back to work.
By this time I am feelin kinda of dizzy and have a headache. I think I am getting sick :(
ANYways, It is only moose and I in the shop for the rest of the day. Well and Jim but he doesnt really count cause he is a greeter and not a tech. Sorry Jim. I guess thursday nights are the new "IT" nights to have your oil changed and get new tires because we got SLAMMED. Even when we gave them ridiculous wait times everyone still wanted us to work on thier cars! Needless to say, it was a VERY busy night. I do not believe morning crew will be very happy with us for the mess we left the shop in. Oh well, it will give them something to do.
The good part of the evening (besides the obvious smirnoff) is that my taxi was not only on time, but actually EARLY to get me tonight :) and I got to go straight home without picking anyone up first. and it was my favorite taxi driver. This guy is really cool and his mom used to be my favorite manager untill she moved to AZ last month.
So here I am, its 9:13 and I am sitting here, "blogging" (which I dont know if I am really any good at this. It seems kinda dry) Finishing off my Smirnoff.
Until another night, Sweet dreams.

My first blog :)
Ok, so I am kinda new to this whole bloggin concept but it seems like a fun thing to do so what the hell.
I guess I will start off with a bit about me.
My name is Laurel. I pronounce it like it rhymes with floral. Some, depending on accent pronounce it La Rel or Lowr El. I am cool with however you wanna say it so long as you dont drop the last "L". I am NOT Laura, Laurie, Lauren or any name such as that. Its just one of those things that bug me. Its easiest to call me Blondie :)
I am currently residing in Washington. Not the pretty lets go climb a mountain or fish from the pier Washington either. I live in the Columbia Basin. The desert. There are no mountains here, hardly any hills. It barely rains and the sun must not be more than three miles tops from here, it gets that hot. The only true plus side is that it is a great area for farming and gardening. Now if you really know me you know that I do not take heat very well. At all. I dont even tan. I get red, then back to white (almost albino) then red again then white then red then I graduate to off-white. Must be the Irish in me.
I love to garden. I live in an upstairs apartment but i still manage to have a very nive veggie garden on my balcony. You will see pics sooner or later. I dote on this garden like a mother dotes on a her child. It is doing very nicely. There has been some rain the past week and that has been nice as well. It has already gotten over 80degrees here this year. It usually hit 112 in the hottest part of the summer. yay.
I have two older sisters and an older brother. I am the youngest by quite a bit. As a matter of fact today is My brothers birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEPHEN!!!
I am a cat person. Well I am an animal person all around but I have always had cats and never had a dog so I guess that makes me a cat person. I think that kittens can cure any mood malfunction.
My bestest friend is Shelly. We have known each other now for five years and have been through a lot together. I know that no matter what I can always count on her and vice versa. She is the coolest chick and will always be my bestie :)
Family is very important to me and I feel that I do not get to see them nearly enough these days. I have a normal disfunctional family and I would not trade them for the world.
I work at Wal*Mart. yay. ha ha
I love cars and to learn about them and work on them. I love muscle cars more than ricers.
I love to hunt and fish and hike around the wilderness. I love camping and just generally having a good time.
Parties are fun.
I bake alot. I find it is just about them most relaxing thing for me. I absolutely love cooking. I cook homemade meals nearly everynight and bake cakes like a pro. I love pastry arts. I am very crafty when it comes to the kitchen.
I am also crafty in the sense of craftiness. I scrapbook. Thank you Jeanne :) It is also very relaxing and super dooper fun. For those of you who think its still just clipping newspapers and such and glueing them into a book, you are so wrong. It is something to do that is very creative and beautiful. I make notebooks and canvases and cards and occasionaly I even scrap a page for my scrapbook.
I love doing things with my hands. I am a fair welder and a pretty good wood worker.
I like all types of music and will listen to just about anything. I draw the line at Miley Cyrus. I wont listen to that. I like heavy metal and "classic" rock the most. I also listen to ska-punk, punk, pop, country and some rap. I also enjoy classical music. Bach is my favorite. Like I said, I listen to everything.
Well, I think this is getting pretty long so I am gonna conclude my very first entry into my blog. I will try to write frequently and dont be suprised if alot of it is me bitching about my job lol. Have an amazing night.
