Hot Water

If you have seen Justin's Web site then you know we got a hot tub over the weekend. Problem is that it is just a cold tub right now - the water is not getting warm. The original salesman told us it would be up to temp in about 10 hours, so we were concerned when the change was not happening very quickly. After talking to a technician, it turns out it is closer to a degree an hour. It was around 74 when I left it this morning, so it should be a in the 80s when we get home. I wish it would hurry up and heat up, I am ready to use it. From when we originally got it going (midnight Saturday) we should have seen a climb of 41 degrees, and being that it started at around 50 -- we would be very near the 100 "ideal" temp, and very stable at the 90 "tolerable" mark. Problem is that they had us turn it on and off a few times, so we lost a good 12 - 17 hours of reliable heating time.

I hope to have a joyous post about it soon, but no telling how long that will be.

Reckon I better go - time to go home.

So impressed!

Yeah - I had an appointment with a new doctor this morning. It was an obgyn, and all the ladies will relate to this. Usually when you go, whether you are a new patient or not you have to fill out paper work, wait, wait, wait, get weighed, pee in a cup, wait, wait, wait, see the doctor in his/her office, wait, wait, go to an exam room, wait, wait, see the doctor, wait, wait, get check out papers, pay and leave. Well - my appointment was at 10am. I got there about 9:45. They gave me 2 pages I had to sign, and one I had to write my name and answer about 4 questions. Not 2 seconds after I had written my name on that last page they called me back. I did the weighing, peeing, etc. and then went to a separate waiting room. I was not there 2 minutes before the doctor took me to her office. We chatted she walked me to the exam room, gave instructions. I changed and she was back in there not 30 seconds later. She already had the check out materials ready, walked me to the cashier and that was it. I was back in the car by 10:20. I really was impressed.

Oh - so American Idol was great. I am looking forward to tonight. Gotta get back to work though.

See ya!

BTW - the moral of the story is... if you live in Cola, go to Women's Physicians Associates and see Whitney Thoma.

It's Time....

Ok, I know I have not posted in eons, but guess what - in just 2 hours 15 minutes it will be here. The season premiere of American Idol. So, get your ear plugs ready cause these first rounds are painful. Ha, painfully funny. I know I will laugh until my belly aches!

Have a good one!

Hello. My name is Leslie, and I am an addict.

I guess this would be my introduction to several clubs. Well, really only two. 1 -- The Tiger Woods 2005 Players Anonymous group and 2 -- The Paper Mario Players Anonymous group.

For Christmas I got Tiger Woods 2K5 from Justin (xbox version). Shortly after Christmas I started playing and was immediately addicted. I was up until 4am on both Saturday and Sunday nights this past weekend working to pick people off of my "Legend Pursuit."

While taking a hiatus from golf on Sunday night we went to Katie's to watch Napoleon Dynamite. It was OK, but while there I made a grand discovery... GameCube. Thank you Brandon. It was the first time I had played one, and I must say -- I have also become a Nintendo addict since Mom & Dad got me the Super Nintendo for Christmas. I swear - I need to become a member of Video Gamers Anonymous. Well -- we got back from Katies, Justin went to bed and I got weary eyed playing TW2005. The next morning, 9am I guess, Justin tells me, "Hey, I am going out to run some errands." I respond, "Ughh, let me sleep." (How uncommon.) So -- maybe 2 hours later I roll out of bed and zombie-like make my way to the TV to play golf. I was into a round about 5 holes when I looked at the middle of the living room floor and wham -- there was a GameCube, extra controller, three games, and a note from Justin. Hella sweet, but I thought - Damn, I must be out of it not to have seen that. - When in the hell did that get there? - Shit, I don't know how to hook this up without him. Naturally, I called for assistance. Justin was on his way home and advised me to finish my round of golf and we would tackle the GC when he got there.

The three games were Mario Kart: Double Dash, Super Mario Sunshine, and Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour. I had played Mario Kart at Katies, and since I was on a golf kick we tried Mario Golf first. It didn't go over too well, but Mario Sunshine did. After I played for awhile Justin and I had to carry some stuff to the dump (boxes and such), so we went by EB games to exchange the Mario Gold game. I picked up Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door and Justin grabbed Dragon Ball Z: Boudaki. It is after this that I joined Paper Mario Players Anonymous.

The thing is that Xbox only has a few titles I am really interested in. I am more into adventure games where there is a story that goes along with things, and the GameCube offers that because Nintendo makes those kinds of games. :) No matter what though - I am going to bed EARLY tonight. I have not been sleeping worth poo, and I intend for that to stop.

So, to everyone - have a great day! THANK YOU JUSTIN!!!

Gob! Gob!
