Wanted - creative suggestions UPDATED!!!
UPDATE: WOW - what a response! Thank y'all (well, most of you anyway) for the great suggestions! I think what I'll do is leave this post at the top of the page over the weekend. Keep adding your ideas and on Sunday I'll take the ones that get the most responses or that I like the best and put them in a poll. Then y'all can vote. I think that'll work out GREAT.
Don't forget - scroll down for new content! 'Mkay. I *KNOW* you don't want to miss any of my riviting posts! ;p
Seriously.
I just wanna stop. For a minute and catch up.
Today was a very long day.
Left for work at 6:00am. Traffic was especially bad. Made it in time, but closer than I like.
Lots of projects and meetings today. I'm tellin' you folks, this job is gonna be good for me. A paycheck. For doin' stuff I love to do! AND I'm surrounded by happy things. Pictures of SpongeBob and Scooby Doo. (I'll explain at some point.) It's a happy place. Weird for me.
I had a meeting at 3:00 that ran over - by an hour and a half. Tonite I had to do errands. Needed to see the landlady about the apartment, and give her the key from The Little Blue Cracker House. Needed to go to the post office and run a couple of other local errands. You KNOW I wanted to swing into Fritz's. But alas, no time. Damn it.
THEN I had to run an hour south east to MY bank. Had to. No choice. The final leg was the 2 hour drive back up to Harvey and TNT's.
I turned off the car at 10:10pm.
But the cool thing is - the apartment is ready for me. Already. And it's cute. Really cute.
Oh - I'll still have to leave the majority of my stuff in storage, but the apartment is cute. I can really do something with it. I'll enjoy myself there. It has that "good feel" I need.
Now I just gotta come up with a name. Any suggestions?
I have one - I'll put it in comments. But come on - surely someone out there can help me out.
I'll give you a brief description in the extended entry.
Oh - and I move in next Saturday. How's THAT for turnaround?!?!?
Ok - first off it's small. Bed/Bath/LR and Kitchen
It's painted yellow - on the inside. (thought I better specify that after the whole BLUE confusion.)
It's an upstairs apartment. Over my landlady's house.
Ok - that's all I got. What do YOU have for ME? (name suggestion wise that is!)
