Failing at Books

Saturday:

The drive down sucked. I drove through a torrential downpour (one of my favorite phrases) for over an hour and basically watched the tail lights of the guy in front of me. But it wasn't raining when I was bringing loads from Trudy to the Pfeif. Sidebar: I hope "the Pfeif" sticks...it's like the Fif (Fifi) and the Pfeif and they're the same but different like being twins but not!

Living in this QUAD (must be all caps, all the time) is going to be ridiculous and may have been the best worst idea we've ever had. We = Me, Bex, Yashka, and Kristen (who I might have decided to call Rizzi. Still working on it). It's a two-room QUAD, and we decided to put beds and dressers in the back room and desks in the front room. Pics later.

Biaggi's for dinner was a fantastic idea.

Sunday:

All moved in and 90% done with the arranging, rearranging, re-rearranging, shifting, pushing, taping, command stripping (less dirty than it sounds), swearing, adjusting, spider screaming-atting (+10 points to Shannon), buying, and decorating. I didn't do any plugging-inning. I left that to the pro (he got everything to work much faster than I could have!) I still have some pictures to stick up and maybe switching clothing locations. Mensa Mama's system makes too much sense so I might have to switch a few things just because I like a challenge.

We decided to go to the bookstore to get our books. I needed one book that I either missed on the list or it was added later (got the rest online). We KNEW the bookstore was closed on Sundays but we only remembered once we got there. Fail.

Monday:

8am Monday morning is a great way to start the week. Not.

Bookstore round two. The bookstore ALSO either missed the SAME BOOK on the list or it was added later so they don't have it. Did I mention it's the book I need to read for Wednesday? Double fail.

But my Ed class was canceled for today so I have time to do things. Like put up pictures and eat leftover Biaggi's and figure out my schedule. Win?

Out-of-Context Quotes from the Past Few Days:

"Things that go on the bottom are in the bottom drawer."
"That makes MUCH too much sense."

"OMG is that a garbage can?!"
"Yes. His name is Diego."

"Have you forgotten that I have continuous conversations with inanimate objects?"

"Dad: 2 Mice: 0"

"Can you do your imitation of Nack throwing up? I heard it's really good."
