vacant

so, i'm vacating. i guess the correct verb would be vacationing, but vacating seems more appropriate. Apartment, Charlotte, work, mind - all have vacancies if anyone's interested. the past 2 days have gone something like:

930 - wake up
10 - get out of bed
1005 - eat breakfast, read paper - front to back, including editorials, target and best buy ads, and completion of crossword, cryptic thing, and word jumble (my dad has reign over sudoku - if even 1 number is filled out, he gets pissed) . keep in mind this is JCity newspaper, so does not really take that long if i do not try to find all the grammatical errors.
1130 - work out
1230 - eat lunch (mom has made)
100 - shower (extortion of hot water)

besides that, i watch tv (have DVRed all of this week's south parks and family guys. i really need to get a DVR), read, check email, eat, and buy food with my mom's money.

i mean, i love to travel as much as anyone else, but THIS is what i call a vacation.

some random thoughts:

- i'm reading a book where, yet again, a Charlottean is portrayed as the dumb Southerner. i mean, really, these ppl must have never been to East Tennessee. our waitress at Ruby Tuesdays today asked my dad if he wanted a Millers Lite, and when my mom asked her for a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, her face wrinkled up like we had just asked her why she believes in Jesus.

- if you ever watch football whilst running on a treadmill, remember to stay focused, because when the refs blow whistles to stop a play, it makes you want to stop, too.
