home stuff

Not much has been happening on the home front - so most of my writing has been to the music blog. But I thought I'd plop a few items out here just for fun. Yesterday was Ds best friend's birthday party - a Star wars theme. Gak! Funny that a couple of the kids invited had NEVER seen Star Wars, which rather handicapped them in the trivia games - but I think they all had fun. We ended up staying and ordering pizza, having lovely adult conversation (not x-rated, just talking with other grownups!), and terrible armenian wine (followed by some really excellent california wine).

I still have the Christmas decorations up, really MUST take down the tree but I don't want to (whine whine whine). If I get the tree down, I will have room for my new recliner (which is not purchased or even chosen yet, but I want one). So that is kinda fun to consider. Other thrilling items I can't believe we still haven't bought: new bed! Our bed has a broken boxspring and it makes this groaning sound every time J gets in (hahaha). As the world's worst shopper I am completely unable to buy us a new bed. I would just buy the one at Costco but it has been deemed "too pillowy" and he won't even try it. I think he should sleep on the floor (not pillowy) and I'll just get what I want (whatever that is).

Also, my phone is dead and I am actually borrowing one from the ATT store. So nice of them, but I am feeling guilty now it has been 3 months. But of course it is more than just buying a phone, we really need to look at our plan, which J NEVER uses, but we are paying a ton for having 2 phones. He wants to keep his razor phone so he won't go on a pay as you go plan, but it seems silly to spend $500/year for him to keep his stupid phone he never uses. So we go round and round and have never actually gone to the phone store to resolve anything. *sigh*
