First I’ll let ya know that I’m only 50% finished with the crazy hours at work. This past Saturday was my first day off all year. I even worked part of the day on New Years Day. So that’s why I didn’t go out on NYE. I just stayed home and was in bed at 1 am, sober. I’ve pretty much been working 10, 12, sometimes 14 hours a day all year.
Saturday was my first day off all year and I pretty much just bummed around the house doing nothing. But I did reward myself with a trip to Go Chicken Go. But before I went there I went to the bank to deposit a bunch of checks for this banquet that I take part in the planning of every January. Its not my usual bank so I had to look up the locations on their web site. Come to find out there’s one not to far from the house on Shawnee Drive and 635. So I go to the bank, make the deposit which I’m sure I screwed up the deposit slip. As I was leaving I thought that I’d head over to GCG on 7th street for some gizzards and an extra roll. So I’m thinking that Shawnee drive will get me back to 7Th street. Then I can just head north and hit GCG. As I was coming down the hill from the light at 635 I saw with great surprise that there sat a GCG! I was ASTONISHED! I had no idea that there was a location there! I was so happy I nearly creamed my jeans! Best part is they have a drive-thru! But sadly it doesn’t have the aura of fear surrounding it like the one in downtown KCK. Like the feeling that you might get shot for looking at someone wrong or for wearing the wrong color shirt. That’s what I like about the GCG, I’d like a side of fear with my gizzards.
So on to reward that I bought myself today. I had been wanting a scanner for over 2 years. Mom has one but she won’t let me have it, she doesn’t even know how to use it nor does it even work with her computer. (Her computer is new and no one installed the software drivers for it when C-Boy gave it to her.) So it just sits there like some retarded dufus! So after few minuets of searching and comparing models and ink cost I settled on the HP Office Jet J6480 I then settled on Staples in Ward Parkway Mall and headed over.
As I was planning the trip I thought I’d finally get my hair cut on the way or at least the way home. WRONG, it was an hour wait, screw that! I can get my hair cut any time. So I went to Staples but as per par for the course on anything that I want they were out of stock. But I wanted a new printer/ scanner and I wanted on today. So I settled for the HP Office Jet J4680 Which is just as good, It just doesn’t have all the slots for memory cards. I don’t even use these things any way. So that was no big deal. Then the salesman up sale me with the warranty razzmatazz and I shot that right down. Nuts to that! The basic warranty is just fine.
Here’s the new printer.

They both have the important freatures that I wanted, printer/scanner/copier, and not important of all wireless printing so I could print from my laptop without having to connect a USB cable. I like the fact that I can sit here typing and have just the one power cord attached to the laptop.
Heres the old one if you’re interested it still works. Let me know and I’ll send ya he specs and all that jazz.

And to further reward myself I’m taking this coming Friday off to get new tires for the Envoy and to see the doctor who I am sure will have the worst news possible for me.
Have a good week ya’ll!
Oh and I currently compiling a list for the Airing of Grivences Part 2
