Stranded

The Saratoga Animal Shelter has been sans weefee this week.  I didn't think people actually lost their Internet anymore.  I thought that this was something students just made up when they didn't finish their projects like they were supposed to.  I knew my Internet was out Monday, but I did not have the stamina to endure what I was certain would be a marathon telephone call to Verizon.  It has been my experience that calling Verizon is the equivalent of eating shards of glass.  Generally I just end up yelling at the automated menu "I want to talk to someone!  Can I talk to some-oooooooooooone!"  So finally yesterday I blocked out a couple of hours to call Verizon.  My modem had stopped talking to the mainframe and within minutes I was once again surfing.  Being stranded without the Internet wasn't all that bad actually.  Nothing to distract me from new TV episodes.

The retour de weefee came just in time because I have some plans to spend some massive time on Pinterest.  Yesterday when I went for my walk I noticed that my neighbor had some rather interesting wood pieces in his front yard.  These people have been purging for weeks and so on my way back I asked him if I could have them.  He said yes and I have plans to build some shit.  I want to make a headboard for my bedroom and also do something with the pallets.  If you're not sure what, just search pallet furniture on Pinterest.  That's what I'll be doing.

Pinterest here I come!!

This week I also bought a pellet stove.  It would have been awesome if I had purchased the pellet stove two weeks ago so it would have been installed for this week's Arctic temperatures, but it's ok.  I've told everyone that once it's installed they can come over in their bikinis because we are going to have it on high.

Wednesday Max and I spent some quality time together watching Toy Story 3 in French.  I asked first if he would mind.  He didn't say no, so we watched it in French.  I balled like a baby.  We also spent some quality time with me walking and him sleeping and then we went to Auntie and Me gymnastics.  I'm not sure how Auntie and Me gymnastics is doing with my back because Thursday I was very, very sore.  I also told my mom that Max needs to practice his moves because he's too little to understand when the teacher tells him to do things to stretch, so we've been working on putting our hands above our heads so that when we go back on Wednesday he looks less like "WTF?"
