melcreada: (hello kitty halloween)

Hello, hello. I am still alive (go me!).

Earlier this week, JP and I went to Houston to see the Star Wars in Concert show and it rocked! Anthony Daniels charmingly introduced different film clips and pieces of music and the orchestra was just wonderful. JP and I somehow got bumped up to a suite at the Holiday Inn Express (who knew they even had suites?!) so that was good times, too. We stopped at NASA on the way back home since we have those year-long passes. Boogie! Great weekend, although it rained the whole drive back.

Do you know NASA has a free app for the iphone that shows pictures and mission updates? It's pretty groovy...

Even though I took Monday off for this trip, I still ended up with overtime this week as my days stretched on FOREVER at work. The testing can suck it! And since they are still trying to finalize software stuff, I am having to divide my time between helping with the testing and attending the most boring, yet numerous meetings in the universe. And doing a crap job at both, I might add. People are starting to comment on my crankiness, but seriously? They'd be cranky too if they were responsible for fixing this shit. They crack jokes when stuff breaks, but they are not the ones stuck at work at 8pm, arguing with programmers and fielding calls from anxious directors. I am so done!

Last night, after the latest installment of "What Broke Today?" JP and I headed out to Austin to visit their famous haunted house, The House of Torment. It had some scary bits and the animatronics were impressive (although few of them were actually moving when we walked by). But is was crazy-crowded (of course) and 95% of the people in line were considerably younger than us. There was a second, smaller haunted house that was included in our tickets and this one was a little better: not as open as the first one (so it was hard to tell what was coming), some disorienting rooms, and one part where we had to push our way through what JP called "a birth canal" in complete darkness. We capped the night off with a visit to the Waffle House, and came back home. Hooray!

Someday I will post my Tahoe and New York pictures and recap my NYC trip. But today is not that day. I am exhausted! Shopping today, handing out candy and movie watching tonight! We were invited to a Halloween party, but I am just too damn tired...
