MLK Day

I am going to try to make this a nice short blog today, but I don't think it will happen. Yesterday was MLK day so most people had the day off work, but not me. I was treating yesterday like any other day I have to go to work at night when Ando asked if I wanted to go to lunch with his parents. This would have been fine had I known a little sooner than 5 minutes before we were supposed to be there. I don't usually shower till noon on my late days, so I hadn't showered yet when Ando wanted to know if I wanted to go to lunch. I said sure, but I needed to take a shower first. He told me I didn't have time because we needed to be at McCalister's in 5 minutes and it is 10 minutes away. I gave in and didn't shower just put a headband on and got dressed.

We met Ando's parents for a nice relaxing lunch, which they paid for, and ate our meals. After lunch his parents were going to Home Emporium and wanted to know if we wanted to go. We decided to stop by the library first to get the book I had on hold. We perused the DVD's, but there were no good ones left I am guessing because of the long weekend. I then went to the desk to ask for my hold and got some nasty lady that said I had to find my hold myself. She didn't help me at all. This is a new system for me. Last time I went to the library they had the holds in the back. Luckily another lady was nice enough to help me with the new system and showed me how it worked without me having to ask. Mean old ladies at the library is why I don't go very often. I always feel like I am putting them out or not doing something the exact way they want it done.

After my awful library experience we made our way to the Home Emporium. It was quite an experience as it always is. There were these hats there that reminded us of Hagood and Ice when they went to Cancun. I had to put one on and get a picture, or as Hagood says piture. I hope I look just a goofy as they did, sorry guys. Home Emporium was then followed by Meijer to drop off a prescription and buy some sunglasses, I broke my other ones on Saturday. I dropped off the prescription and they said it would be 20 minutes, which I barely had since I needed to get ready and leave for work. We browsed the sunglasses and the cheapest pair was $25. I was not going to pay that much for a crappy pair of sunglasses. Over to Target it was for a nice $6 pair. After buying my new cheap sunglasses at Target it had been 25 minutes so back to Meijer for my prescription. They told me it wasn't ready and it would be at least 15 more minutes. I didn't have that much time so we had to leave.

Work was work, an MLK Day celebration. At least I get double time for working a holiday. There were no funny paper mache Marting Luther King's this year. It was pretty much all essay's that kids had written about King. I did have a few cookies that were very delicious.

At home Ando decided he needed to work out for some reason. He decided he wanted to do some Tae Bo. I put the disk in for him and watched him struggle with all the coordination it takes. I decided to do a little with him to try and show him how it should be done. It really didn't work that well. I kept laughing and wondering how he has so little athletic ability. He needs some more practice and then maybe he will get better. Sorry babe.

Ando made me laugh, but not cry with a wedding proposal.
