I have a sick kiddo again. No fun at all.

We were supposed to go to the drive-in last night, but it rained so we went to the "big-people movies" instead and saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory -- which I highly enjoyed. The boys were really good, I was rather surprised.

Tinsley & I are going to the Avalanche game (good seats tonight instead of general admission! Yay!) and then to Macado's to have a few drinks. Bad news is she's moving today so she's not 5 minutes from the bar anymore!

I'm still jobless; haven't even gotten a callback at all this week, though I did get a couple rejections. And I went to the two remaining temp agencies here in the valley. Sucks.

My ex had the nerve to call me and say something about the picture on Kelly Marie's stone being cracked. I don't guess he realizes that it's been that way for a year and a half! Idiot. Goes to show he hasn't been up there. And maybe if he had been paying his child support like he was supposed to instead of hiding out, I would've had the extra $150 to get it fixed. And he had the nerve to say something about me "confusing the kids by having other men in their life" b/c he apparently came past my house and saw "two shirtless men" sitting here talking to me & playing with the kids. (Yeah, he's petty like that) I didn't bother to tell him it was my cousin and his boyfriend the day they came over to cut my grass. Bastard hasn't even called since that big argument we had in February, hasn't seen the kids or called to check on them or anything. Even avoided his niece's birthday party because me and the boys were going to be there. Grr. Prick.

Anyway, on to the fun stuff.

Went out for the afternoon, while my sister in law was at my house with the kids, come home & my computer was absolutely fubarred. And I don't have the time, the inclination, or the patience to mess with it, so I'll probably be AWOL for a couple days. Just thought I'd warn you.
