days like this....

My car wouldn't start this morning so now I am stranded at home. (At least until someone has the time to pick me up...) It will be okay as I can now study but it is really annoying. Maybe I should have someone look at my car (and have it cost mega money).

Winter blah

I want a garage!!

I hate winter. Correction: I hate some things about winter. I hate having to scrap my windows every morning. Actually - I hate having to scrape my windows when it is SOOOOO hard to scrape that you can only scrape a bit of your windows. But what I especially hate about winter is how my car keeps freezing up!!!

Early this week it was really cold. So cold that I could BARELY get my driver's door open. I could not open my passenger door at all...or at least not until the next day! I tried to get gas earlier this week as well and my gas tank was frozen. Eventually the guy at the gas station poured a hot cup of water on my gas tank to unfreeze it. The other thing I have noticed about this winter is that some days I can get into my trunk but other days it is frozen. I never know what it is going to be....

If I had a garage I really would not have to worry about any of that!!! I could just park in the garage and rest easily knowing that my car would not be frozen.

How many more years will I have to live without a garage?


I hope not many...

Showering in the Dark

Sadly my light bulbs burnt out (or at least that is what I thought happened)...little did I know that in fact my light in my bathroom died. I tried changing my light bulbs in my bathroom with no luck.

:-(

I have resigned myself to the fact that I will be showering in the dark until I can get an electrician to come out and check things out.

Oh well, life is full of adventure right?

Calzoni

Today I made some calzoni for my lunches with my mom. I have not had calzoni for a long time so I am looking forward to it!!

There is a lot of snow over here...I hope I can get to work tomorrow.

welcome 2011

There is something about the start of a new year. You have made no mistakes yet. But I guess you have not done brilliant things yet either. But that is the brilliance of a new year. You can start over again.

There are so many things I have not done yet, like go grocery shopping, or do laundry. Yes, I think of fun and exciting things.

In other news - I feel like I am going to get a cold.

Here's to a great year!!!

because why not?

I decided to update my blog because I am on my new netbook and I thought - why not? I have to do something - yes?

So it is almost the end of 2010. That makes me sad - in a way...

:-(

But I guess you never know what the new year is going to bring and it may just be a great year!!!

:-)

I would be very surprised if I ended up going to Europe in 2011 though. I have no big trips planned for this year...

:-(

But there is a dog in my house

most irritating words in the English language

I just read that a Marist poll finds the following words/phrases as the most irritating in the English language:
Whatever
You know what I mean
To tell you the truth
Actually
Like

To tell you the truth, I use all of these words/phrases on a daily basis - like - if you know what I mean? Actually, I have decided to try not to use these words/phrases as much as I possibly can.

(Whatever)

Seriously!! (This word was not on the list but it probably should have been...)

LOL
