Alrighty! So it's been a week since I've posted!
Heh.. I'm not dead.. just been busy busy and haven't been able to get on my comp for more than 5mins.
My brother and his family are still visiting us, but turns out that they're actually planning on moving back up here. Apparently there just aren't enough job oppurtunities in montgomery so they're gonna try their hands back up in SC. Plus it helps that they don't like living down there anyway.
But anywho! I haven't been exercising any. The room with the treadmill is being used for them to sleep in. Air matresses are such a pain.
And I just don't wanna do the Turbo Jam stuff in front of anyone
heh
I haven't really been eating all that well either. UGH I'm afaid to weigh myself. I wouldn't doubt if I've gained back a good 5lbs just from this past week. I mean I haven't been gorging myself like I used to.. I've just been snacking a lil too much and eating the wrong stuff.
I have NOT given up though! I will be starting back up with exercising and kickin some jiggly fatty butt! heh
Oh and to ramble a bit off topic.... people are freaking CRAZY the day after thanksgiving!!!
We were over at my mother's house eating when we saw on the news that people were actually camping out in front of Best Buy waiting for them to open. It was only 7pm at the time and they didn't open until 5am.
So we leave there and me and the bf decide to drive by the Best Buy that's near our house (there's only 2 that I know of.. the one they showed on tv and the one near us)....it was about 8:30pm at the time.. and when we drove by.. there was already a line forming outside of the store. I'd say at least 30people.
Now that was insane but not that bad. Me and my brother were planning on getting to Best Buy at 4am to wait for them to open. SO being my naive self... we waited and headed out... we reached there at 4am on the dot.. and the freaking line of people waiting for get into the store was wrapped around the parking lot (people were having to park across the street and down the road).. and down the sidewalk. It was absolutely INSANE how many people were there.
It was definitely an experience to remember. When the store finally opened, the line did move quickly. We didn't think we were gonna be getting anything though, but we did end up getting most of what we wanted.
There were 2 things that we missed out on b/c ppl wanted them just that bad.
A 19" LCD flat monitor for something like... $129 and some language program in Italian for I think $10. What peeves me a little though is that when we were over in the monitor area.. we asked a few employees if they had anymore of the 19".. both said they were sold out already (even though we only saw 2 people carrying them)... and then later on we found out that they had put more down.... bastards. I'm hoping that they're keeping more in the back for Saturday since it is a 2day sale.
We got the 22" monitor that we wanted though. As soon as we got into the store, my brother pushed his skinny butt to the computer section and actually snagged the very last one they had. He said that he actually heard people comment saying things like "Damn, that guy grabbed the last one" lol and how people were eyeballing the items we had grabbed while waiting in line to checkout
hehe. If I had seen another 22" I would've gotten another one.
But yeah.... I think it was worth it. Not sure if other places are doing it... but this is an almost tax free weekend. So with the 300+ dollar bill we had we only had to pay like 3 dollars tax
Last year I just thought people were insane to get up that early, but it was totally worth it. You just can't beat some of the deals stores are offering. Specially with how expensive gas has been.. you gotta save as much as ya can when you can
