Tired...So...VERY...TIRED

I hate this dial-up connection when I am trying desperately to upload pictures. It takes too long and you can't do anything else while it's uploading, it has the be the active window. And it can take like 15-30 minutes! And you can't walk away and do anything else because you have to make sure the connection stays up which it won't unless you are doing something! ERRRRRRR . . . so NO pictures this morning! I'm just too tired for it.

So yesterday was pretty good. I got almost everything put away from Christmas, well I should say it's almost all boxed up anyway ;-) The boxes and tree however are still out and I'm pretty sure they will be for awhile, thats just the way it seems to go. But I was glad it was starting to look like I'd been doing something. Then the MAN got home and tells me that he's going hunting this weekend afterall (the season only goes through Jan. 27th - THANK GOD). However, when they went on Thursday the truck almost got broken into and his friends truck DID get broken into. So they decided until they get a boat and can park and launch elsewhere, they need someone to drop them off - at 4:00 IN THE MORNING. So since this "friend's" wife is a lazy whore, she wouldn't do it, so they ask my mother-in-law! The only thing this woman does that early is roll call her 27 cats for breakfast! So, being the good wife that I am, I offered to take them and she could come over and stay with the baby. He had mentioned they were going to have to PAY her so I said I still expected to be compensated. He says with that little devil look in his eyes "Oh I'll COMPENSATE you all right - hehe" - I said "Yeah, I can get that anytime I want - what else ya got?" ;-)

Then we went out for out little date night thing (that sounds lame). We had such a great time though. We went to several different places on the art circut and they had the most beautiful paintings! I couldn't BELIEVE what they sold for either! There were GREAT snacks and some really great wines. What was nice was to see him excited. He is so fun to be with especially when he feels like he has a purpose. Painting really gives that too him. We talked to one artist about her work and then about his and she invited him to come to the monthly meeting they have at the gallery. He was just over the moon about that. We talked to a couple of artists and they were actually interesting, not at all hoity toity like I would have thought. After all the snacking we weren't too hungry so we went to our favorite place Rosewood just for some appetizers and a glass of wine. It was so nice. I love sitting at the bar no matter where we are because you can be so close. It feels so intimate and romantic, we do it no matter where we go. It was a fun fun night and since the whole thing is FREE the only cost was our dinner. Can't beat that!

When we got home and sent his mom on her way we made sure that she knew - 4:00! Very important cause we were meeting his friend and the whole thing is very time related. They have to bike for 1/2 mile in the mud, set up their blind, put out their decoys, and get settled - all before dawn! F - U - N. So when he called and called and called her this morning with no answer, he was pretty pissed off. He woke me up and had me start calling her. I was a little tired still, go figure, cause the only person that answered was some poor tired lady that was NOT speaking english :-0 I felt sooooo baaaaaad for waking her up. We called his mother for 15 minutes NON STOP and no answer. So he starts freaking because we needed to leave immediately and he didn't know what to do. I told him to go get the car seat ready, we would just have to take the baby with us. Poor little thing, she was like 'what the HELL is going on?" I was afraid she wouldn't go back to sleep either since she was awake the whole time in the car. We got home at about 5:30 and I laid her back down PRAYING she would stay there. And just as I got back into bed and all snuggled in, guess who called? She says to me (insert mother-in-law voice here) "Yeah, so you guys goin or what? I been waitin for your call this whole time" - BULLSHIT. And I told her so. I said "well you weren't waiting at 4 when we called for 15 minutes straight. We've been and gone and home again - thanks though". She kept trying too, trying to tell me that she was ready, she was waiting for us. By the end of the conversation she finally said she MIGHT have fallen asleep. Whatever I said, and just to fuck with her, when she said "SO you had to take the BABY?!" I said "Nah, we just left her here - we figured she'd sleep through" ;-) It was bad I know, but she deserved it. There was a LONG silence and then I finally said "OF COURSE WE TOOK HER." It was funny though >:-)

She did go back to sleep, and so did I, until like 8:00! YAY! you would think, but I just feel worse for some reason, like when you take a nap in the middle of the day, it never helps me anyway. So now he hella owes me and thats fun ;-) I have to go get them soon, maybe then I'll get my coffee and feel better we'll see.
