7/28/08

thursday is the new friday.

So it's official: starting the week of August 18th I'll be working 4-10s and will have every Friday off work. An extra day for the weekend? I'm a very happy girl. Here's what I'll be doing with my soon-to-be-free Friday:
  • Sleeping in.
  • Sleeping in some more.
  • Actually having a real breakfast instead of boring Quaker To Go oatmeal squares.
  • Finally finishing the collage wall in my room.
  • Taking care of any necessary Walmart stops. The store on 13th is too ridiculously busy to brave at night. Not to mention frightening when it's dark.
  • Finally finishing the 2007 Venable family DVD cover for Marme.
  • Completing my workout before noon.
  • Blog stalking.
  • Trying to convince people to take the day off and go to Lagoon with me.
  • Doing everything I can to not be sucked into Project Runway marathons. Maybe I'll have one of the girls hide the remote.
  • Bragging to friends who actually have to work that day.
  • Reading.
  • Garage-saleing (sp? I don't even think that's a word) while the weather is good.
The possibilities are endless. I'll just need to remind myself of those wonderful things as I'm getting up earlier and staying later Monday through Thursday.
Also, I do have a birthday post to put up. However I'm having some technical difficulties with my personal laptop and don't have the pictures on my work laptop. So stay tuned. Cause I'm sure you're all losing sleep at night wondering what my something was. HINT: worth $10 in anticipation, not worth $10 in product.

The DVD cover? Sheesh, I was thinking you gave it to me and I misplaced it :)

Oh yeah. You're one of those state employees. I'm a wee bit jealous of your new schedule.

You can always get a bonzai tree and learn to trim it.

Or learn to walk a tightrope. And then join the circus.

I want you to know that I enjoy your blog playlist quite a bit. I just folded some laundry while listening to it. It made the task somewhat more tolerable.

I can't help but be a little bitter about this. Wanna be a secretary on Friday's?
I don't recommend a bonzai tree. I hear they are a bit difficult to care for.

Ma & Pa: Yes, that's right. I DID give it to you and you have misplaced it. That scenario works for me.

Vanessa: We're actually not through the state. But half our employees are already working those hours so we decided to officially make it agency-wide. And I'm so glad you like the playlist!

B: Don't kill your bamboo.

Learn to catch flies with chopsticks. Would that be easier than caring for a bonzai tree?

I'm so jealous--I think 4 10s sounds so nice. I hope you enjoy your Fridays off. If I were you, I'd sleep in every Friday :)
