Currently Watching Lost - The Complete First Season see related

Ok, so my amazing husband watching LOST right now, a show I cannot get into because it is WAY too demanding, I can commit to television shows enough to watch stuff like LOST or 24, so Il blog instead.  The little bar at the top should say usband currently watching?nbsp;

Jean-Queen ?on Presidents Day I did indeed buy jeans, 3 pairs! And I successfully hemmed them all one Tuesday night while my amazing husband was out doing visitation for the Sunday Place, so for the first time in a LONG time I have jeans that fit me and don drag on the ground!  PLUS I hemmed m the ool way?so that the original hem still shows - Horary for sewing machines!

Getting Bartlett-ed uster coined the term etting Bartlett-ed?to mean he extreme one-up-man-ship of a bad day?based on one day my amazing husband had when they were freshman in college.  Apparently when I took my amazing husband name, I also took his tendency for bad days to get worse until they are to the point of ridiculous.  Here is my story:  A few weeks ago, at work, I was going to the University of Dayton (UD) to image materials on their Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM ?it basically taking pictures of materials on the nano scale with a hundred thousand dollar camera). So I get there (had to barrow my co-workers car because mine was broken ?still is broken actually ?maybe more on that later), get my visitor pass to park in the lot, and go to the research lab.  I take my pictures and things are going pretty good. But on my last sample I mount it improperly (stupid mistake), and it gets stuck inside the machine! It starts beeping at me and flashing and I had to get the lab guy and they had to call in a technician to figure out what is wrong. All this time I pretty much freaking out thinking HIS IS A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLAR MACHINE! I BROKE A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLAR MACHINE!!!!!?So they call the guy in, he says there is nothing they can do about it right now because he has to take the thing apart and fix it. He tells me to just save my files and go back to work (and he is none too happy with me at this point).  So I put my flash disk in the computer to save and it doesn want to save! The network at UD won enable my secure flash disk! Grrrrr! So, I save my files on the desk top of the computer and vow to come back with a different flash drive to get them later that afternoon.  I walk to the car (of course I am parked in bufu visitor parking), and half way there, it starts to our down the rain?as my amazing husband would say.  I am not wearing a coat because it was warm and sunny when I went in.  So I get to the car, soaking wet, and there is a parking ticket on it!  I swear they make those things bright orange so they can piss you off from 100 feet away!  So I get to car, take my ticket and my parking pass to the parking Nazis at UD and ask them why they gave me a ticket since I had a parking pass.  They explained to me that my pass (which you hang on your rear view mirror) must have fallen down when I shut the door, because the ticket said ass on the dashboard.? I just thought ou have got to be kidding me! Even thought he could SEE my pass, he gave me a fine for it falling off my mirror!? but the guy at the campus safety office must of sensed that I was not having the best day and was just like ell, since I see you have a valid pass, I will make this go away? 

**sigh**

So I get back to work, figure out what wrong with my flash drive, get another one and get ready to go back to UD (with my coworker car) to get my images.  I call the UD lab guy to see if they fixed the SEM and the good news; they fixed it and everything is fine (horray!) the bad news: they had to completely shut down the computer and ALL my images are gone, deleted, forever.  A whole day of work pretty much down the drain, I couldn help but laugh!  I would have thrown in the towel and went home, if I wouldn have been car-pooling because my car was broken! Ha ha ha ha ha!  I guess I was Bartlett-ed!

Un-birthday Party! That coming up in just a few weeks! Horray! It will be so fun ?I am going to be the caterpillar after he turns into a butterfly (re-making my butterfly wings I left in China, and wearing this blue velvet as a robe thingie) and my amazing husband is going to be the mad hatter (we made him a lime green top hat out of kids fun foam, and hopefully find a cheap white suit at good will we can dye lime green).  And we will have tea and croquet and a gift exchange.  We might make hats too, I haven decided it all yet. But it will be fun, and I will definitely post pictures.

Ok, that it for now ?more to come!
