Happy June!
I can't believe it's already JUNE!!! May absolutely flew by. I've offically been home for a month now :-) I feel like summer too here finally. It's been 77 degrees for the past two days which makes me excited. I could actually walk around with my sweater off yesterday, and today I am wearing a tank top. When I go outside I can take off my jean jacket which makes me happy :-) The bad news is that I lost my saftey pin for my skirts that I bought when I first moved to Texas, so I can't wear them right now...until I find a new saftey pin, because they are too big, and they will fall down if I don't pin them. (That's good right?!? I haven't gain too much weight since moving home!)
Anyway, yesterday was a good busy day at work. I was training another ID, Jena on how to storyboard for the Cisco projects. She seemed to be picking it up, and I was able to let her loose yesterday around 3PM. I am currently having a problem with my lotus notes calander at work though. It doesn't notify me of my meetings, so I keep missing them or showing up late. :-( ITS is taking it's sweet time to stop by and fix it for me too :-(
Last night was Chau's birthday! Seymen called me around 5:30 to let me know. I worked until 6 and then went to Pittsford Plaza to buy her a present. They were having a Spring Sale on all pre-arranged packages at bath and body works, so I bought her a set. Unfortunately, the bag that I chose was 3 times the size of the gift. I think it looked kind of stupid because it was a big pink flowery bag, with a pretty small in comparison gift :-) We went to Shiki for the "surprise" dinner, and I had to ask Seymen if I looked like an *sshole with this big bag :-) Of course I received a smart comment like: "No different from usual" ;-P. But anyway, I think Chau was happy about the party :-) I met her friend Elvie, who is the CUTEST little Vietnamese girl! She and Thaun went to HS together and she now works as a dental hygentist on Westfall Road. She is so nice and very beautiful. I totally want to be friends with her :-) I need to learn her secret to incrediablly smooth blemish free skin. Chau, Elvie, and I talked about playing Tennis together or Badmitten.
When I arrived at home last night, I actually started a blog entry while my mom helped bill reinstall a light fixture in the kitchen, but they finished before I could finish my entry, and mom came in my room to wathc Law and Order together. That is definitely one thing that I love about living at home. On the "special shows nights" my mom always comes into my room and lays on the bed with me and we watch TV together. Just like in high school when we'd have family show night (ER mainly...oh yeah, and Party of Five). They only problem is that my TV is kind of low, so my mom's feet are always in the way of the bottom left corner of the TV :-) But it's always a nice way to end the night.
Tonight, grandma and grandpa are flying in from Florida. This is the beginning of the of Family Reunion week. It's always interesting holding a Ksiazek/Brownstein family reunion since my parents are divorced and remarried, and no one speaks to one another. Poor baby Lucy gets dragged into this already and she's only 2 months old. But the plan is pre-arranged and Stephy has organized the timing with my family, so they just tell me where to go and for how long and I can jsut show up. But tonight G&G are the first to arrive, for one night. They are leaving for Penn. tomorrow for a weekend trip to see old friends and family in Alaphant (spelling?)/ Elk Mountain area. Thus commences the beginning of Musical Bed's at the Evan's household :-) My mom is trying so hard to not displace me, with everyone staying at the house. I keep trying to give up my king size bed, so she and Bill don't have to sleep on couches in the basement. Last night we started a big debate, where I thought she might yell at me, because I keep insisting on sleeping on a couch when we have a full house :-) She even offered to sacrafic Bill to the basement while she comes and sleeps in my room! Poor Bill ;-) Anyway, my plan is to "move out" tonight after dinner into "Seymen's bed" in Bill's office. So if she and Bill CHOOSE to sleep in the basement, when there's an empty KING size bed, then that's their choice and I'm off the hook ;-)
Anyway, I'll let you know how the bed wars turn out. I just received a new "assignment" from Jeff. So it's back to work I go. Adiossssssss!
