seven to eleven

this is classic.

so, yvonne and i were going to the seven eleven admist all of our shopping/preparations for ang's party. which, i should mention we forgot at home... more on that later. anyway, i really wanted some 5¢ candy, so as we pulled up to the parking lot, i saw a little sign that said, 7-11, staff parking, only. so i read it out loud: seven to eleven staff parking only. as soon as i said it, yvonne and i laughed our asses off. it was hilarious. i'm willing to accept that it could be more of a verbal story, and not a written story, but i can repeat it for you over the phone if you like.

anyway, earlier we went to tim hortons to get some tim bits, and i was going to work my magic on this guy behind the counter, so that we could get them in a donut box, cause we thought that that would be funnier. but when it got to be our turn, this woman offered to help us, and we both knew it wasn't going to happen.

but i did get a 50% discount at the dollar store.

oh, and i had to return the printer that i bought yesterday because the stupid guy that sold it to me explained that the only difference between the one that i bought and the one that i was considering buying is that the one i ended up buying doesn't print as many borderless photos. he didn't mention that one is mac compatible, and the other isn't. i'm not sure if that counts as a difference to him or not, but it does to me.

anyway, i went back to the store and i got a wicked printer that does cds and dvds and has 6 colours, for the same price. i get a mail-in rebate, and he gave me extra money off, so that it's the same price as the one that i had initially purchased.

last night was good times at anghold's bday party. everyone had great costumes on. it was very fun. office-themed parties offer something for everyone. the water cooler was a nice touch. on the way over we entertained the cab driver with stories of seven to eleven and "why," as he said, "do you guys have so many boxes?" yvonne said he watched my ass as we left the cab.

today i spent some time with my friend, brad at apple care. my computer ( i won't describe how, yvonne) had some issues. he thought we were going to have to clear the hard drive, but we didn't. which is good news. i was planning to back up all of my files today anyway.

things are good in hood now. and i get to look at cute underwear online now. yahoo.
