Damn Snow

Friday night my cousin had a sleepover and his friend stayed until last night. They had a lot of fun and I have to say that I did as well. We rented movies, bought junk food, wrestled, and they went outside and had a snowball fight as well. It snowed about 16-18 inches down here. I had no idea it was even going to snow. I have to say, I felt like a kid again when we played made up games and what not.

Unfortunately the snow messed with my plans for the weekend. I was supposed to have run the errands to get the ball rolling on purchasing the car but unfortunately due to ridiculous amounts of snow, I wasn't going to drive 400 miles. I tried to get it done yesterday but unfortunately we didn't have time to get to the bank. I got there and they had already closed. I had planned on signing all the paperwork there since they had a notary available, and who else would have a notary working on a Sunday? I drove 8 hours, ~400 miles yesterday for nothing. The kids weren't thrilled. They were basically just along for the ride. I felt bad. I left them at my parents' house while I drove around and then came back for them when it was time to leave. They were bored out of their minds.

I hope we can get this car thing over with soon, though. It's annoying to have to wait this long but the upside is that I get to look over all the paperwork and make sure we're not missing anything. Here's to hoping.

Snowboarding/Skiing

I was invited to go snowboarding on Sunday. I don't think I will because the package includes a limited lift ticket so I'll not only be limited to the bunny slopes but falling flat on my ass most of the day anyway cuz I've never snowboarded before. Skiing, on the other hand, I've done before. Since I've been poked and prodded into going I figure I'll at least do that so I can actually have fun.

My boss went to a sale last night right by work and I asked her to pick me up a pair of snow pants. I had already made plans, otherwise I would've gone myself. The guy from work that got all of us together to go is lending me a jacket to wear so I should be set as long as I wear enough layers. This should be fun. It's been a while since I've gone skiing.

Also, for those of you wondering, the phone interview went quite well I think. It seems he didn't like my answer to one of his questions though. It seems he's a tables guy and as far as I'm concerned tables have no place on a web page except for tabular data. Oh well, I got all the JavaScript, PHP, and MySQL questions right so that should count for something.
