So I am getting this CD player for FREE!! Pretty much daily I get coupons from Office Depot at the church. Mostly they are junk or they are discounts on a purchase. Today in the mail was a coupon to get this Coby CD Player for free if you made a purchase of $75 or more. I just happens that this morning I made an $81 purchase for the church. My reward? This baby!! I am pretty excited. It will arrive tomorrow and replace the old junky one that I have at home. I LOVE free stuff!!
Note to self...
When making oatmeal cookies make sure you have enough oatmeal before mixing ALL the ingredients! If you don't have enough and try to make the cookies anyway they will turn out like oatmeal pancakes.
This weekend was pretty good! I did some babysitting and made some extra $$. I also went garage sailing. The first one was VERY dissapointing. The only thing I ended up with were some books for my nephew. I decided to stop at one more on my way home and got the find of the century! I will hopefully be able to post pictures later in the week. For now my description will have to do. They are wooden framed chairs that sit pretty low to the ground. They have leather/vynil seats that are a yellow color. Think very 1973 furniture! I am SO pumped about them. They were only $5 each! All I need to do is strip the wooden frame and put a fresh coat of varnish on it. Good times!!
I have always been one of those people who follows the rules. If you tell me to do something I will do it. If there are guidelines then I will follow them. I only got 1 detention in ALL of highschool and it was for wearing pj pants to school. I only did it because my friends were all doing it. This said sometimes I want to rebel against the rules. Not because I don't agree but because others are breaking them and getting away with it. It annoys me to no end that someone can break the rules every day and get away with it. Why even have rules? It makes me want to do what they are doing just to see what would happen. Why don't I? Because I am a rules follower. I would feel horrible guilty and probably somehow repent for my actions. Sometimes it really bothers me that I am such a goody two shoes!!
While moving my roommates car the other morning I noticed that she had some really good music playing on her radio. I looked to find that the station was 91.5 FM. On my way to work that same day I decided to tune in. It turned out to be a really great local radio station. They are based out of Rollins College in Winter Park. If you like emo, punk or eclectic types of music then give them a listen!!
So I am totally BUSTED! My boss Mark has a pretty big fear of snakes. Well last week I went out to the mail box and there was a dead one on the side walk. I decided it would be funny to move it to the drivers side of his car and watch as the drama unfolded. I went into the kitchen and got some tongs and then proceeded to move the snake over next to his car. The thought of how much this would freak him out made me laugh for the rest of the day. Sadly at 5:00 p.m. he was still here. I had to leave and didn't get to see what happened. This all took place last week. So today the pastoral staff comes out of a meeting. I hear Mark ask my co-worker Kim if she knew anything about the snake. She said no. Someone then proceeded to mention that they knew it was me. Mark came around to my office and asked me if I did it. I of course not lie. I told him that it was me. He said that when he found it he thought it was alive. He spent several minutes throwing rocks at it before deciding it was dead. LOL!!! So, so funny!! He did tell me that he is going to get me back. Ugh! Payback is a bummer...
