Lambs in the Woodlands

I went to the woodlands mall w/ KathyO today, and it was pretty awesome. I mean, who else goes to a "chocolate bar" at 3pm? We got delicious food and i got some free milkshake from the cashier guy. weird? yes! delicious? OF COURSE. How it happened: KathyO and I are sitting eating our ice cream and cupcake, and talking about life. We're both looking around the place, which is pretty much empty, and I always seem to catch the eye of the cashier. Anyway, we're talking, laughing, i'm talking with my hands to prove points, and suddenly the cashier shows up with a little glass of milkshake and offers it to me. I think I stared at him like he was crazy, so he explained it was leftover from another milkshake and he thought I would like it. So i thanked him and drank it. It was delicious, but weird to get a free shake from a guy. And we went to Museum where I'm working, and walked through it to look at all the exhibits so I can see it all, and had a blast. There's a cute manager there, and he's in charge of the Paleo Prep Lab...which is working on a real dinosaur skeleton, and it's so cool. I asked what they were doing, and he explained it all, and the story ends with me getting an application to volunteer to work on it, and his card to call him to tell him when I'm bringing it up. I'm pretty excited. SERIOUSLY excited....a real dinosaur skeleton!! and a chance to do real archeology lab work!!!

The police were at my neighbors' house tonight, and they were scoping out the house and checking all the doors and windows, so my mom and sister and I went outside to see what was going on. And because we know the neighbors. Apparently, the panic button on the alarm keypad inside was pressed, so the police were called, but no one was answering the door. So they asked us if we knew anything about it, and we didn't really. They had the alarm company try to call the family, but there wasn't an answer. Anyway, they eventually left, and everything is fine. But it was weird, kinda like my very own taste of a L&O episode.

I start working Wednesday....get excited. I need to go lunch shopping tomorrow, and turn in my check at the bank...which hopefully means getting to see cute bank guy..yay. he's fun to talk to, and I haven't seen him since New Year's, so we have some catching up to do.
