So my car, whom I call Hunter, is going to make it afterall. We had some issues because he decided to let his crankshaft BREAK while we were in Castro Valley for St. Patrick's Day. I had major anxiety and was having crying fits that I'm broke and can't afford a car.. and that I'd be trapped at home (which I am right NOW). So Friday before Todd and i headed up to CV to house and dogsit for his parents my mechanic called and said it would only be $1500.00 AHH! I had told my father that if it was more than $2,000 I'd can it and get another car. I was at the point where I almost wanted to just get another car and live off top ramen for a while (which many people know I lived off of for FOUR months lol). But that was good news.. I decided that I'd get him fixed and once I get a job I will be able to buy another one and sell this one..
So this weekend was pretty fun. We were in CV the whole time! We got there Friday and went to The Cheesesteak Shop. YUM! I had never had a Cheesesteak and oh my gosh I could go for one right now. We also experienced poor Sally (the family doggie) being beyond depressed that her parents were in Tahoe.. Hmm.. We also went to Sato Japanese Cuisine in Pleasanton-- my favorite and ended up at our friend Jimmy's house hanging out..Saturday was rather interesting..We went to sleep at 6am and Sally would NOT let me sleep.. so I got up at 730 and slept on the couch. By 10 Todd was awake and watching the Manchester United game.. then we ate, showered, and took off for Lucky to get food. We prepped Rock Cod, Yummy Rice, Asparagus, and Rolls for dinner. We were super anxious because we ordered the UFC fights :) While we watched tv (before the fights) I made Funfetti Chocolate Chip Cake Cookies for Todd's grandpa.. he has a sweet tooth and is now living at a retirement facility so I thought that would be something to raise his spirit. So all was going well and all of a sudden BOOM the sewage in the house got messed up and it was NASTY. We ended up calling a Rooter place and they had it fixed so we could relax. We did get to watch MOST of the UFC fights but it kinda sucked having to get someone to come out and fix the place..All that mattered was Georges St. Pierre beat Dan Hardy to me :) We passed out and didn't wake up til NOON on Sunday.. well that is when I woke up. Apparently Todd had the same issue with Sally and ended up sleeping on the couch. I woke up at noon and stumbled around til I found him.. we couldn't shower because the stupid water heater wasn't working.. haha. So we did what we could and took off to China Garden-- YUM! We ate sooo much there-- Honey Walnut Prawns, Pork Fried Rice, War Wanton Soup, and Seasame Chicken and then boxed it up to take to both his parents and his grandfather-- yes there was THAT much food. After hanging out with his grandpa we headed back to his parents house and watched the Sharks game.. eventually ended up back in SJ at Pita Pit and Safeway grabbing dinner (yummmmm Pita Pit) and Wine and Cheese for a snack. :) It was a blast overall.. but I'm glad to be back in my own bed!
**also I won a YuDu screenprinter on ebay.. That is what happens when I watch a freakin' infomercial LATE at night and go "I want that" then bid on it and go "oh shit I won.. I have to pay now.. crap!" So I'll test it out this week...
Anyway.. right now Todd is at the gym and I'm stuck at home.. no car til hopefully Friday/Saturday.. It's my parents 30th wedding anniversary and they cleaning the back yard lol.. I wish I had my car.. soon I will..
