speaking of going on and on about nothing

Tag: Uncategorizedammogirl @ 10:20 pm

So, to get it out of the way: I love David Archuleta and want to put him in my pocket, and I hope he goes on and on and on, but my favorite performance of the night was Jason Castro, dreads and all. I loved his take on that song so much I…totally fell for Fox and Apple’s marketing schemes and pre-ordered it on iTunes. I KNOW!

Can I admit here that I’m secretly addicted to iTunes? Yeah. And it’s funny because I handle the money stuff in our house and I’ll be all “$5 for a sandwich at the commissary? UNAUTHORIZED!” or “Gas in the mini-van AGAIN? UNAUTHORIZED!” and at the same time I’ll be buying entire record labels worth of songs. One at a time, of course, so it doesn’t SEEEEEEM like it’s costing me anything–what’s a DOLLAR? I mean, come on. Oh, I don’t really do that to John, by the way. Trust me, he spends plenty of money on his toys (Xbox 360 Xbox Wii Million dollar computer with two 24″ monitors two 500 gb external hard drives I could go on and on).

And, continuing on in this train-of-thought post, I was realllllly stupid last week and mentioned I thought there was something wrong with my car because I had just filled up and I was already at 1/2 tank. So my boss went out and looked under my hood (no, I don’t know what he was looking for, yes I can change my own oil and tires [thanks dad] but I don’t because…I don’t want to) and everything seemed fine to him. He suggested fuel injector cleaner and life went on. And then two days later I realized that my gas was at 1/2 tank because not because my fuel injectors were dirty but because I had driven 200+ miles in one week.

Hmmm…maybe that story doesn’t sound quite so silly in the retell. Anyway, the thing is, when John was here, he did most of the driving, in part because I’m a distracted driver who gives him a heart attack and also his parking situation is 37 million times better than mine. So, factor in the distance from my driveway to my work being only 3 miles each way, and I could go nearly an entire month between fill-ups. Now, I have to do ALL the driving and since my last fill-up on Saturday, I’ve gone 122 miles. So.

Okay, that was a pretty boring story. But I just realized that it’s totally past my bedtime so I’m just going to throw it out there and run. You’re welcome have a good evening bye!

Tschuss!

    Yup, I’m with you - Jason Castro was the bomb! My girls are totally in love with D. Archuleta, though. I wish they hadn’t made so many of them sound like lounge lizards, though ;-).

    Are you leaking gas?

    Kari - My girls too–and I’ll admit we rewound and watched the entire exchange between him and Ryan at least three times.

    Chris - Okay, I’m going to go with the serious version of that question and say no, my car is not leaking gas. That is one of the things my boss checked for.
