Will somebody please stop the rain?

Hi again. here i am in this sorry excuse for a house, actually, the backyard is soggy, not the inside but i guess you knew that already.....right? anyways, it's been raining on and off for the past couple of weeks and this house isn't exactly leveled. i just spent the better part of the last couple of hours searching in vain for another place to live. it takes time but the wait is worth it. this week has been kinda busy. we spent monday morning running errands. have a new phone. finally. we needed a local # so we ended up getting a new phone too. it's a camera phone but it don't anticipate taking too many pictures so we didn't get the whole shebang for it. we haven't really given out the new # so not too many people can get ahold of us (awwww). enjoy it while it lasts. i've only taken a couple of pictures w/it and i put one as my wallpaper.

wish i could tell you that this week's episode of house was cool but unfortunately it's gonna be off the air until the end of this week due to the stupid mlb playoffs. who the hell cares, right? obviously some people do. in the meantime i have to do w/out. i did catch yesterday's ep of criminal minds. it was ok. it beat watching all the other stuff. the season premiere of lost was on but i kinda got tired of watching it a long time ago. it's one of those serial shows and i really don't enjoy having to watch it everyweek lest i loose track of the storyline (if there is one). just give me a simple episode that is solved every week. sometimes i can tolerate a two parter but that's it. this is also the reason i lost interest in enterprise too but that's another story. anyways, i do enjoy watching some reality shows. one of them is dancing w/the stars not because of the celebs but i enjoy watching people dance being that i myself have 3 left feet. it was pretty interesting. this week they voted off vivica fox. finally. that little b**** was gettting too cocky for her own good and people could see that. i haven't really voted this season cuz i don't get around to it that evening and then i end up forgeting. better luck next week. today is thursday which means csi day but unfortunately we need to go p/up the mail @ mom's so that's gonna have to wait. typically we'd be watching smallville but this hick of a region doesn't have the cw network so we can't. i was so pissed off when i found out but hey, what can you do? luckily we got tv reception in time to watch the premiere of dr who. it was alright. it was a full night of the new dr. i might not get to watch that either tomorrow night cuz there's some other stuff we need to do. hey, they'll probably show it again someday soon. in fact, i know they will. this is after cable and you know what that means. yeah, once the season ends its reruns all around.

enough of that, let me tell you something else. tuesday i spent the am sending out customer service emails to restaurants. ever since we got here we haven't had one single pleasant dining experience. maybe it's our fault, we haven't tried any sit down restaurants. since we're always in a hurry it's always easier to just do the drive thru thing but it has to be that way sometimes. the most recent one was @ el pato. we went the drive thru way and ended up leaving w/out the order because the idiot @ the window couldn't get our order right even after the 5th x we repeated it. oh well, lesson learned. maybe one day we'll get really lucky and they'll actually get everything right but i'm not holding my breath. anyways, i sent out a couple of emails thru my customer service line and we'll see what happens. nothing, i'm sure.

now that we're closer to the family @ least we'll get a chance to attend all those family functions we kept missing. the first one is set to be jc bday party @ the end of this month. details to follow.
