I have a lot of crap to do today, including grading 45 lab reports (yeah right) and going in for a couple of hours at my part time job. I have this overwhelming urge to shop even though I don’t have any money. I guess grocery shopping will have to satisfy the desire. =(

But all of the Memorial Day sales… they are calling like sirens!

is now three… and a half. Lil’ Electromonkey moved on in yesterday. My office now sports a dresser and a dog bed. We had our uber-mattress delivered yesterday afternoon so Lil’ Electromonkey got his own bed. Really his arrival was uneventful and smooth. I forgot how much I liked him before he started dating the Elitist.

In other news, Winemonkey and I got a new bed. It is a tempurpedic. And I LOVE it! I am not sure about Winemonkey. But there is something so wonderful about a bed that will just form to your sleeping body so that when you wake up in the morning you can jump out of bed and see your fading sillouette for ~ 20 seconds.

Heaven.

Houseguests are going to fight over who gets to sleep in there… granted of course, that Winemonkey and I are willing to forfeit our bed.

GMAIL?!!! All I want to do is check my email. But noooooo, no of course gmail has to be down - ALL DAY!

ugh, so frustrating.

In other news - I am going to Seattle. In July. For a day and then off to Vancouver for two days. I am sharing a room with three of my co-workers, including two guys. I am not so sure about the whole “we are all one big happy family” mentality that everyone has going on at my current employment.

I have been doing nothing but things right for one of them, and the other two I have been doing nothing but things wrong. Including not inviting my co-worker to the grocery store to get lunch today. (Which I actually felt really bad about. I mean she wasnt sitting at her desk this afternoon when we were leaving and so I completely forgot to ask her - out of sight, out of mind.)

This morning, Winemonkey told me that his brother and his brother’s girlfriend broke up last night. I told him that it was sad, but then immediately retracted my statement. The truth is, I didn’t like her. And I had hoped that Lil’ Electromonkey would find a girl who wasn’t dependent on other people to support her. I know that he must be sad, but just like when Lisa was sad when she broke up with her boyfriend (TWO YEARS AGO, huh?) it was probably for the best.

With that being said, our guest bedroom might just be converted into a real bedroom for one Lil’ Electromonkey. Originally, when he started dating the Elitist (there is a great story behind her nickname, but we will save that for another day), he and Winemonkey lived together. And then they got evicted together (this was a f*ed up situation, that had nothing to do with the boys being bad tenants). So Winemonkey moved back in with the family and Lil’ Electromonkey moved in with the Elitist. So since they broke up, I am guessing he doesn’t really have a place to live. My first instinct is that I don’t want him to live with us forever. I am sure that he wouldn’t. And then I felt bad for even thinking it. Because if it was my sister, she would be able to stay with me for as long as she needed. I would just expect Winemonkey to be okay with it. I mean, the brothers are close. So I am going to be okay with it for as long as possible.

Plus, when they lived together, aside for drinking too much and never cleaning, it was great. So hopefully everything will work out and he won’t get back together with this girl and he will be able to find a permanent place to live.

The only downside? There goes the guest bedroom/office. I am guessing that we are going to have to move most of the office stuff out. =(
