I planted flowers out on my patio this weekend. I don't know what was worse. The waiting in line at Wal Mart with my hands full cuz there weren't any carts to be found, or lugging the 3 bags of potting soil and many containers of flowers (which the Wal Mart lady didn't give me any bags to put them in) upstairs to my apartment, or the trip to the Dollar Tree where the checkout lady gave me attitude cuz I was buying some glass and ceramic containers and, lord have mercy, she had to wrap them up in paper. Look lady, you work at a place that sells breakable stuff. It is your job to wrap them up and not say "oh shit" and give me a lousy attitude when you look in my basket and see glass stuff (yes, she said "oh shit" to me - beeeeyach!). Anyway, I got them all planted and my patio looks all purty....for now. Until the Bakersfield summer heat comes and probably fries them all. At least they will look purty for a few months at least.
I watched "The Departed" earlier today, and I can see why it won the Oscar. It was a hella good movie. Hella good. I also watched "Stranger Than Fiction" and "Tenacious D: The Pick of Destiny" yesterday. Both of those were also good. "Tenacious D" was hilarious, and "Stranger Than Fiction" was also funny, but touching and sweet. I really enjoyed watching it.
I had a hell of a time with my computer earlier. Ugh. I hate when it crashes. I had to turn it off and restart it like 10 times to get it working again. Freakin' A. Give me a break, computer.
Speaking of computers.....my work computer hates me. First, 2 weeks ago, I was doing a manual retroactive budget on the computer and, bam, the power goes out. I lost what I was working on. And then when the power came back on (an hour later), I couldn't get back in to do it over. I had to wait til the following day to get back into my forms drive. Ugh. Then, last week, I went out to lunch and when I came back, my monitor had died. After trying to tighten the cords and restarting the computer about 3 times, I gave in and called the help desk. They came, looked at it, and then took the whole monitor away, and brought it back about an hour later. Now it works. Hopefully, it won't die again.
Speaking of work, I hate Sundays. I really do. At least we have Friday off this week. God, the weekends are way too short.

You are planting flowers already! Holy crap, that Cali weather is great. It snowed here the other day and this morning it was 12 degrees out. Brrrrr. Oh how I love flowers. I hope you post a pic of your patio.
You are right...The Departed was great...loved it. I wasn't even going to watch it until I was forced to.
