today was the officers’ meeting for the fraternity so we could plan out different events for summer and fall and figure out budgets. when we started to figure out budgets, i didn’t know how much i’d need as i’d barely been in this office for a month, but after thinking out costs for various things they decided to give the social budget $1000. ^_^ now to figure out more fun stuff and get it all planned by july 13 when we have our next meeting…
i also mentioned to them that i heard on the radio that steppenwolf was doing a concert in northern virginia sometime soon and all the guys thought that would be neat to go to (we’d just want to hear “magic carpet ride”, hehehe), but turned out that the concert was today. oh well. ^_^;
i’ve also got to fix up the
tomorrow morning i’m taking the mac plus to my grandfather’s place to set it up so he can use it, and he said he’s going to pay me for fixing it up ^-^ i can really use the money…
speaking of money, my friend with the data entry job at bwi said that he needs to find out some more information about it before he does a lottery to see who gets it… apparently he got 11 guys interested in it, but he’s narrowed it down to myself and four other guys. one of my brothers who works at kinko’s said that i can give him my info and he can give it to his boss and recommend me for a job, and also when i got home mom said that some company called “club mom” or something called up about my resume online… i’ll give them a call tomorrow, i guess, just to see what they’re about.
another thing i saw when i got home was the den was closed up with big green signs mom made saying “ANT POISON” with a mr yuk face drawn on them… apparently she and kelly saw a bunch of ants start to march into the den, so they vacuumed them up, poured hot water on them ( o_o ), and sprayed ant poison all around the room and closed the doors to the den. so, when i got home and saw i couldn’t go in the den i decided to watch “the blues brothers” instead in the living room, but later i got bored so since most of the spray was gone i took this giant fan we have, set it up in the window facing outward, and put it on max – now it’s sucking all of the bad air out of the room and ventilating it outside. it’s very loud, though, so i’m listening to my music pretty loud, but since the doors are closed (cats can’t come in here until the poison’s gone) and the fan’s making all sorts of white noise, you can’t hear it at all outside of the room.
besides, it’s weird when the door is noticably forcing against me trying to pull it closed because of the lower pressure inside the room, hehe…
