It has been a long week... I think I will sleep and do some physics homework this weekend.

6. Como estas?
No clue how to do characters. :) Hopefully you'll get money back, so be positive!

7. Estoy bien.
The special characters are ALT + 130, 160, 161, 162, 163, 164, 129, 168, etc... They are all ASCI codes for accents and such.

And I am a bit worried. My wife and I needed more back monthly and I was sick of getting huge refunds because basically I was giving the government an interest free loan. They wouldn't do that for me so I tried to take less out monthly to try to break even instead of losing out on some money monthly. We'll see what happens.

10. Blondie!
Long time no see! Weekends gonna be busy, busy, busy. Taxes to do, computers to fix, and snow to shovel. I hate snow.
How have you been? I'll bet it's warmer in your neck of the woods than it is in mine. :hug:

13. Hey you!
How has life been? Seems like forever since I've talked to you last! Good luck with everything this weekend, try to find some time to relax though! I've been pretty good, just work work and more work lately. And it hasn't been too warm here lately. Today it's 23 so far. We had some really pretty snow come in yesterday, but not enough to amount to much accumulation unfortunately. :hug:

15. It looks as though we might have gotten
close to a foot of snow last night. Ugh. You can have some of mine. Life has been treating me just fine lately. And honestly, relaxing is the worst thing I could do. If I don't stay busy, I get lazy, then I get nothing done. :)
How have you been?

18. A foot?? WOW!
That's a LOT of snow! Glad to hear things are going well for you! I've missed talking to you lately!

As for me? Well, working two jobs doesn't really leave time for too much else. I'm planning a long weekend in Atlanta at the end of the month (there's a DU meetup one night) so that's the first real break I've had in about 4 months (every since I've taken the second job). Had a person from my past come back into my life recently, not sure about it, but we'll see. Guess that's pretty much it. I lead a very boring life as of late. :D

42. Lotsa movies...
Napoleon Dynamite, Blazing Saddles (I've already seen Blazing Saddles a kajillion times, but never on DVD with all the little extras like the making of documentary, the Black Bart tv pilot, and the Mel Brooks commentary) Rumpole of the Bailey, They Shoot Horses Don't They. And a few old tv shows (George Burns and Gracie Allen Show You Bet Your Life with Groucho Marx, Dragnet, Racket Squad)

21. Hey there!
:hug: Glad to hear you're feeling better! At least you'll be able to do whatever this weekend without anything holding you back! And nope, haven't been in about a week (slacker I know) but my work schedule changed a little and I just really haven't felt like going. Now that I realized my wisdom teeth are coming in, I doubt I'll go for another week or so (my headaches kinda suck).

How's work going ?

:hug: and your wisdom teeth are coming in? Sounds painful. Are they coming in correctly or will you have them removed? (Mine are gone.)

23. :) Glad you're not working too hard!
Did you ever make plans for this weekend or still planning on just resting?

Not sure yet, just realized they were coming in yesterday and I haven't been to the dentist yet. I'm a huge wuss. :(

24. You need to go
to make sure they're coming in as they should, and not impacted or any other problems. This is one case where not going is gonna be worse than going.

25. I know.
I'm just freaking out. I haven't been to the dentist in awhile and I realllly don't like the thought of blood in my mouth. But on the other hand, I'm reallly tired of the headaches. :(

You can do it! :hug: Deal with the problem while it is small, like an acorn; for once it becomes an oak, it cannot be moved.

27. It's alright.
Thanks for being concerned. I'll make an appointment for sometime next week and I'll get to hear them yell at me for my tongue ring. :D

29. If he's like my dentist
he'll just sigh and ask if you know what that thing does to your teeth (in addition, the rest of your mouth). If you say no, you'll get the gory details. Not only that, I'm sure that he'd say...


















No doughnut for you! :P

32. Yes
I got the reply PM. Everything is happening as the end of the month. My taichi association banquet is that Saturday, too. At least the banquet will be late afternoon. I haven't seen an event's sked for the get-together weekend, yet.

To be clear: No, I don't have any piercings. I've read the results of them in the dentist's newsletter. :)

33. I don't think an exact time has been set.
But I'm coming down on that Thursday and staying until Sunday (or that's my plan as of right now anyway). Sounds like you'll be a busy man! So, if we're cut short, that's alright!

And sure ya don't! :D Something you're not telling us? hehe

36. It's not so bad.
I've had mine done for almost two years now. Didn't hurt too much initially but the two days after sucked. :) Being on the beach and not being able to eat anything isn't cool. Gotta head out of here. Have a great weekend! :hug:

34. Good morning BlondieK!!! I just got done crying over "The Five People
You Meet in Heaven." I hate Mitch Albom but my brother got me this book for Xmas so I'm reading it. I'm at the part where he is remembering when his wife died...and he's driving her to the hospital and he feels as if she is in the steering wheel, and the dashboard, and the windshield, because he is spending all of his energy just trying to hang on to her. Somehow, that line just hit me in all the spots that make me cry. :hi:


But I really am in a good mood! :hi:

37. SUCH A WONDERFUL BOOK!
And the movie was good as well! (which is a surprise considering that many book/movie things don't turn out well). Just wait until you actually finish it. I bet I cried enough to fill an entire river. I realllly liked this one and "Tuesdays With Morrie". Morrie was my first experience with Mitch and I have to say, I think he does excellent work. Give that a read after you're finished with this one! Enjoy the rest of your book and have a GREAT weekend! :hug:

38. Hi Blondie
We've got visitors over, and they have a kid too, so that means a easy wekend, with booze and loads of food. Hooray for the weekend.

Hope you are well.

39. I woke up to a bat flying around my bedroom.
I have no idea how the bat got into our apartment, or where it went. I called the front office to get someone to remove the bat. They were here within 5 minutes of when I last saw the bat, but they couldn't find it.

No real plans for the weekend yet... just grocery shopping and doing the laundry. We'll probably rent a movie and go to the hot tub.
