how long does it take to post a new blog?

So much to go over, so little time.

I spent pretty much Easter weekend indoors cause of the End-Of-World weather change. It was all gloomy and cold. I did help my mom decorate cupcakes to look like little easter bunnies. omg, they came out really great. I hate getting excited about things like that, because it makes me realize my age more and more.

Anywho my cousins came over to the house on Easter and we all watched Stranger Than Fiction. This was actually the first time I ever saw it. Can I just say that I never saw Will Ferrell as a cute, romantic kinda guy. But now that I saw this movie, I'm like... well hello there Mr. Ferrell. This seriously was a really good movie. It was cute, witty, dark, and intricate with all the computer details. I wish I knew the actual name of the computer program, maybe I wouldn't sound so generic when I say "computer details". Oh well.

Back to Easter, we did the obligatory Mexican cracking of the cascarones on each others head. Who started this weird and violent tradition, I have no idea. Perhaps when Jesus was resurrected the Disciples couldn't believe it was him standing for before them, so they had to crack something on his head to see if he was real or not. I bet Jesus with his sense of humor did that ol' "Ouch that hurt! PSYCH!!!" Gave those Disciples a bit of a scare, but then they all laughed and crack things over each others head, which we do now with egg shells filled with confetti. Oh to be the historian who writes down all these traditions.

Jump to Monday... JURY DUTY!! dun dun dun.
What an exhausting day at court. First there was well over a hundred of my fellow jurors waiting with me. Then the judge came and gave her shpeil about being a juror. yada yada yada... The moderator lady starting calling the names in the first panel and who do you think got called. Yup, yours truly. Well at least it was the first panel and I didn't have to wait in the big room that long. Well they line us up in our number order. I was lucky number 27. Is that even lucky, who cares? They take us to our court room and the lawyers in the case ask all these questions and if we want to answer yes we raise our number. It's kinda like being at an auction and we're gonna bid on an item, except here the item we're bidding on is a seat as a juror i this case. Well they tell us that they're only chosing 6 out of our group of 30. Ok, the odds me being in the jury were leaning a bit more in my favor. We go through a good two hours of questions and they finally select. No folks I was not chosen. Instead we were realeased to the big room and then eventually they released us for the day. Thank god. I'm officaly 4 dollars richer. It should of been 6, but I had to pay 2 bucks for parking. LAME.

I literaly came home drained. I think jury duty sucked all energy and life out of me through my ears. Painful? Oh yes it was.

This week at work as definetly been a long one. Not cause I have so much work to do, blah blah. No it's boring, time drags or as I like to say stands still. My boss is gone *breath a sigh of relief*, actually all bosses will be gone for a week. Its a good break. Honestly, I can't complain about this job. I get paid to sit here and check my Myspace, blog to you fine people, hotmail, craigslist, ebay. I definetly can't complain what so ever. I have my tiny stresses here at work, some guys can be a bit rude and talk down to me. Fine, I realize you engineers make the big bucks I'm just merely your servant Receptionist answering your calls. If I were making big cheese I guess I would walk around with my chest puffed out as well. One day.. some day.

Ok so I told myself that I have to really try and post a blog either everyday or every other day. I signed up for this, so I have to do it. Kinda like having a gym membership, I have to go... no wait. Bad analogy, I'm not paying for this site. ugh, whatever. I'm done for today.
Till next time.
