Loophole!

Okay... This is horribly awesome, so I had to share.

If you want a way to download free MP3s from Amazon.com - It's apparently really easy.

I purchased a $0.99 song from their site which downloads right away to your computer.

If you have an account with them and a credit card on file, then they process your card after you download the song.

I must not have updated my profile with my new debit card number, so the payment didn't process and the order was cancelled.  BUT, that's AFTER I already downloaded my now FREE SONG!  Loophole!

Here's the email I got from Amazon.com today:

Shoplift

To avoid incrimination...  I will simply state that this was a mission easily acomplished.

   

Snow!

That's right boys and girls!  It's finally snowing in Denver.  And it's gross and wet and blowing sideways.  I'm so excited.  We got our first snow on Nov. 12th, but it's snowing again today.

Last week I just had a crud of a time.  I was having trouble at work, stressing about school, adjusting to the weather changing, dealing with people's moods, etc...  I seriously wanted a do-over.  Instead, I found ways to cheer myself up.

Do Not Shave

Honestly, this was incredibly easy to accomplish, seeing as how I don't shave everyday...

Get a Hobby

I took up jewelry crafting.  I made some bottlecap charms, decorated a few lockets, and decorated the back of a necklace.  I had a lot of fun doing it too.  They turned out super cute.  I'll have to take pics.   Two of the lockets were little bibles that I decorated for Tim and Danielle.  :0)

Bullshit Day

I emailed out sick from my exam.  I actually felt sick to my stomach and was in the most foul mood on the face of the planet, but still...  I feel guilty.  Which made me feel more ill.  I was in bed until 12noon that day with my cats.

Buy a Newspaper and Only Read the Ads

Well, I get the paper, so it's a little like cheating...  But, whereas some days I actually read through the paper to find out what's interesting, this Sunday I just took out the ads and tossed the rest of the paper.

Ego Control Day: It's not all about you!

Nancy had a bad day at work...  So, I took her out to cheer her up.  She couldn't decide if she wanted a burger or pasta for dinner, so we went to Chile's and split both.  Then we swung by the Robusto Room to say hi to Jason and I bought us a round of Lemon Drop shots.  Then we went and got her Cheesecake and headed home to watch Castle.  Thankfully, I enjoyed everything that I did with her, even if it wasn't "my" day.  :0)

FUBAR

So...  After some hesitation, I decided to talk to my CFO/HR boss about my coworker's flare up earlier this week.  I talked to him about it yesterday.  I tried to get my point accross that I was upset with her approach; she had no right to yell at me.  Apparently, he talked to her about it today.  So, she came to appologize to me, "Aside from me swearing once, I think what I said and how I did it was completely appropriate."  No it was not.  And, so I tried to explain...  Really, it got me nowhere.  What's the point of HR if they can't help?
