Catching Up

This weekend was fun! A.J. and I went to Elitch Gardens (6 flags) with two of my co-workers, Chandler and George, and George's kids.  George's kids Maliya and Jalen were hilarious and very friendly.  With the intense heat, standing for hours, and violent loopdy loops, I only made it two rides before I down and out.  **LAME** Thank you, Mom!  It all worked out though.  As A.J. and I were in search of air conditioning, we found a very cool theater where we watched various acts of very nimble people do crazy things with their bodies.  It was amazing! An hour and a half passes, and I'm ready for a second round!  We met up with Chandler, George and the kids and took a ride on the Ghost Blaster.  On this ride each persons mission is to kill the most ghosts with their laser gun.  I WON smoking A.J.'s score 1140pts to 320pts!  Finished up at the park with hamburgers for the adults and turkey legs for the kids!

Now for my work story today!!!!!  I just want to start of by saying this is not Europe, and I am proud to be an American (where at least I know I'm free)!!  ALSO, FOR PETE'S SAKE DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT WHIP YOUR BREAST OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND ALL THE MEN AND WOMEN IN MY OFFICE TO BREAST FEED YOUR KID.  Oh yes, this happened today.  There was no stopping it.  I then watched--along with my other very amused co-workers--as my male co-worker had to proceed with explaining our protection packages, checking for damage, and getting her signature with breast feeding in process.  Enough said.

 Today I dropped my car off at the Kia dealership here in Colorado Springs.  It wasn't working right and has 92,000 miles on it and just wanted to see what could be done.  The findings: new timing belt, transmission flush, fuel filter, fuel injector flush, air filter, alignment, and new spark plugs.  Total: $1040.  The service guy told me most of it could wait, but the timing belt needs to be replaced asap!  I was pretty close to going with them instead of my mom's friends auto shop until their service took a turn for the worse.  I planned to get my car back today and called them to ask them to figure out what we could do with my keys because I work past their hours.  The plan was for me to drive one of our vehicles up there to trade them because we had a Kia that needed work done on it.  Never got a call back.  Called 5mins before close to make a last ditch effort and all the service employees had gone home--all the people with access to my keys.  So, there I was stranded at work and pissed off :)  No more business for the Kia dealership!
