Things That Make You Go "hmmmm...."

I decided to do a quick post while I work on our holiday rundown for the blog. Greg and I left Flagstaff on Monday afternoon and got home to Santa Monica around 10pm. Nothing says welcome home quite like having your locks changed. Yup that's right, while we were away on holiday our building manager took it upon himself to change our outside access door's locks..."hmmmm." After we tried every door in the building we resorted to some good ol' pounding and were delighted that our neighbor Tom was still up watching Monday Night Football. I am not a huge football fan but that night I was singing it's praises! Once we got into our apartment we found a lovely note from our building manager letting us know that he had changed the locks and here were two new keys...I don't know how we were supposed to get the keys without being able to get in the building but, maybe I should let that slide.
While we were in Flagstaff we had our mail on hold and they were supposed to deliver it to our house starting on Tuesday, however when I spoke to the mail man about not receiving our mail yet, his reply was that I would need to pick it up because "there was mail"..."hmmmm."
Finally on our way to the farmers market yesterday there was a note from FedEx on the outside access door for a failed delivery attempt, the reason? "Couldn't get in."

Here is to some common sense in the new year!

Fixed it!

Here are the pictures that I was trying to post on the previous entry but couldn't. Life has definitely been flying bye. I have been trying to get this loaded on here for day's but finally broke down and had Greg take a look turns out that I saved it as a very large file which is why I couldn't get them to load. Hope everyone is having a fantastic holiday! I'll post some holiday pictures soon!!!

Issues...

Well I had a bunch of really great photo's to share with you all, but I seem to be experiencing technical difficulties. Frustrating... oh well. I am aware that I have not updated this blog in a very long time and am wondering if anyone still bothers to check?!
This last month has been very busy, after Greg and I returned from Arizona we both got started right away on finals and have just now gotten the time to relax a little and breath! My dad was in town for a few day's again which was really fun, we went to the tide pools, Downtown Los Angeles, and China Town. This was of course in the middle of Greg's finals so he was not there for most of it although he did pull himself away from his cave (aka: office) long enough to go down town with us; although I think by that point he was in full zombie mode. Once my dad was off it was my turn to do finals, and so I have not been home much lately. Pico has taken to following me around more, I think he is worried that I don't truly exist and if he looks away for even a moment I may disappear. This week Greg and I are in AZ for a visit and then we will be headed to D.C. I have some time off for the holiday's and so I will be updating the blog a bit more frequently and maybe if I am really good the server will allow me to upload some pictures along the way! Happy Holidays!
