Wednesday

Didn't make it to the casters... that sucks! I did do a load of laundry, cook my veges for the week, go grocery shopping and some other random stuff before work this morning.

Even as I cut my "formal" work hours more and more (I'm down to 2 1/2 days a week! woo hoo!) I still can't seem to find the time to finish everything that i want to accomplish. I've got a paper due tomorrow and a midterm on Tuesday. Considering that it's June, that just seems f#*ked up!

Yesterday, i ordered a funky RED blender from target.com -- on sale and free shipping!

That was only after some serious blender drama went down at the Homemark. I bought a $25 blender at this local mom and pop store in Astoria. Take it home and, suprise, suprise it's a piece of CRAP. When I went to return it, the store manager insisted that, if he could get the blender to work, I would have to keep it. It was SO ridiculous. Then he went out and bought a bag of ice to prove that the blender would blend ice. Of course, it didn't work any better for him than it did for me. The whole episode was insane. Bottom line, sometimes it's NOT such a good idea to keep your money in the neighborhood. I seriously doubt that Target would have challenged me to an ice-blending competition before i could return an appliance to them!
