Good news for once!

Are we all sitting down??? One of the owners of where I work came in this morning and told me that they decided to give us Monday off after all!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! I almost kissed him!!! Earlier they told us that we weren't getting any holiday's off because of the fact that they fell on a Sunday this year. I am so excited!!!!!

Now back to my normal complaining and ramblings...

Has anyone else notice how expensive it is to rent a movie nowadays? I went into Blockbuster the other night, got 4 movies and my total was like $19! I couldn't believe it! Each rental was $4.29 plus tax! Heck, a matinee at the movie theatre is only $5.00!

We rented The Island, The 40 Year Old Virgin, Must Love Dogs and Stealth. We watched the Island and it was a great movie! The Virgin was extremely dirty, so much so that we nearly turned it off, but about midway through there were a couple of scenes that were so hilarious that I nearly peed my pants! We haven't watched the other 2 yet but will this weekend...

I'm busily working on a hat for my swap partner over at C'Ville and a nice shawl for myself made from the Ticker Tape I got at Michaels on sale. I have 5 skeins total and I hope it's enough. If not, I'll have to break down and buy a couple more. So far it's a little challenging working with the stuff but I like the way it looks as it's working up.
