Suzy's Blog

I was checking my email this afternoon when I got home from work and found out that another old friend of mine has joined the blogging community. Go over and say hi to my friend and tell her Suzanne sent you. I have not seen this friend in years but I do keep in contact with her regularly through email.

Boy is it ever hot here. Today it was 103 actual temperature no lying. We have had hardly any rain this summer. It has been well over a month. Anytime it has rained it has been very short lived or just missed us by a few towns or cities. Hopefully we will get some this week. I know I have not posted much lately, but things have been kind of crazy for the past month or so with work. I am hoping that will slow down soon. We have seen a few good movies this summer also. We do not normally pay to see movies in the theatres but we recently saw Batman Begins and War of the Worlds. I liked both of them. Art was not too impressed with War of the Worlds. Next up is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Charlie and the Chocolate factory the original with Gene Wilder is one of my favorite childhood movies. I am looking forward to seeing the remake.

Well Tuesday is Art's birthday. Go over to his blog and wish him a happy 35th birthday. While you are over there leave him a comment and tell him he needs to blog. I know I am posting this a few days early, but I may not get around to doing it tomorrow night before he goes to work. Now that his birthday is upon us mine is not far behind. In a way I am looking forward to it but everytime I think about it it makes me feel old.

You Know You're Addicted to Caffeine When... You haven't slept since the Clinton Administration. Your next-door neighbors often call to complain about the sound of your chattering teeth. Instead of Tic Tacs, you suck on Vivarin. You plan to name your twins "Cappuccino" and "Espresso." On the way to work you get pulled over for speeding and you don't even have your car. You kill a guy for trying to switch your regular coffee to decaffeinated Folgers. You wake up in the middle of the night screaming "Pepsi! For the love of God, I need Pepsi!" When a Maxwell House commercial comes on, you actually lick the TV screen. You drink so much coffee it starts shooting out your ears. You're shaking like Michael Jackson on his wedding night. You think sleep is for the weak. You've just had your 20th cup of coffee within 20 minutes on a Friday afternoon, at 4 o'clock, just so "the milk doesn't go bad over the weekend" You believe th...

Boy am I glad that today is Friday and I have a long weekend. Ever since we got home from our Trip 3 weeks ago things have been very busy at work. It has also been hot and humid with no rain here as well. We did eventually get some the other day, but it was not nearly enough. The other night Art and I went to dinner at Granite City Food and Brewery afterwards we stopped at a new ice cream place called Maggie Moos . They have pretty good ice cream. I had cake batter ice cream and it is made with vanilla cake batter. It was very yummy. Anyway, just thought that I would post something to let everyone know I am still here. Just worn out from being so busy at work.
