The 2005 OzzFest information has been released. Quite frankly, I’m disappointed. I’ve seen half of the main stage acts already. Numerous times at that. And, there aren’t any second stage acts I’m interested in, so I guess I’ll be sitting this one out. I was really hoping for Nine Inch Nails on OzzFest. That would’ve been cool. I would have gone just to see them. I guess we’ll have to try to catch them if they come around here.
Eh.
100,000 miles. That’s a first for a vehicle owned by me. It hit the landmark about a week ago, but I forgot to post about the momentous event. My trusty, rusty RAV4 better hang on for about another two years, though, because that’s when we’ll next be able to afford another vehicle payment. That is, assuming that Brian and I are both still gainfully employed. His job is certainly more secure than mine, but I guess you never know what the future may hold. No sense worrying about things I have no control over. But, I just really want a new car. Really.
Brian felt compelled to complain to management about our Domino’s experience from the other day. He stopped by yesterday after work, but the manager wasn’t there and wasn’t going to be in until today. I pretty much talked him out of going there again because, really, what was it going to accomplish? He finally agreed. However, the manager from Domino’s called here today. Brian called him back and the guy apologized and offered us some free pizza coupons. Brian declined, but he said he was going to send them to us anyway. Like I’m going to order from there again anyway…I’ll have mine with extra boogers, but hold the sneeze, please.
Then you read an article like this and it makes you wonder why you ever eat out.
Yesterday, Brian and I started working on an additional lumber rack for his woodshop (yeah, one’s not good enough for him). Jacob went to his babysitter’s house for a few hours so we could get some work done. We didn’t have enough time to complete the job yesterday, but we were able to finish the assembly this evening. We still need to install the new racks, but this will have to wait until the weather improves because we’ll need to put a bunch of stuff in the driveway in order to get things organized. So, if it ever stops snowing, we’ll be able to finish this project. Maybe in April…
Though the new racks will hold a lot of wood, I don’t think they’re going to hold all of the cherry that is currently sitting in the shed. So, I’ve been trying to think of some ways to use a bunch of cherry fast. If things go my way, I’ll be getting my house trimmed a lot faster than anticipated.
Is this Domino’s new slogan? Brian ordered a pizza at 6:45 this evening. They said it would be ready in 40-45 minutes. Well, it was 7:55 and we were still without pizza so Brian called to see what was up with our order. They said that it would be delivered any minute. Any minute. 8:20 rolls around and finally our pizza is delivered. Our COLD pizza, that is. Have you ever eaten cold Domino’s pizza? Try some cardboard and you’ll get the idea. We were all pretty pissed off by this point, so Brian decided to return the pizza. He went back there and got our money back and they likely added our name to the “sneeze” list. So, I guess you can add them to my boycott list.
Anyway, I felt really bad for Jake. This is a kid who can’t go more than 30 minutes without eating. Jake was hungry, but Brian and I had some work to do (more on that in a separate post), so we told him that we’d be eating when we were done. Normally he’d be bothering us every 15 seconds about food, but he didn’t this one time. Well, we got done with our work and called for the pizza and the kid ended up having to eat a waffle for supper at 8:30. Geez. All he wanted was some pizza.
