Anyone else stuck at home?

I got home from work to discover a flat tire.  Not that I really had plans tonight anyway, but not I'm stuck here.  Cause I'm a total girl and have no idea how to change a tire.  
Anyone else around?

  • I'm here.  I don't leave for Atlanta until tomorrow.

    I realized my tire's leaking this morning.  I just put air in it and am crossing my fingers that it'll be okay for the drive to the airport tomorrow morning.
  • I'm home... H is out with his mountain bike boys deep frying a turkey...
  • I'm here. I have one last work project that I have to have done by Monday. It's either get some work done tonight or plan to do it Sunday night -- I'm doing my best to finish tonight so I get the whole 4 days off for the weekend, but I'm *really* having a hard time settling back into work... which is why I'm on here now.  
  • Oh, also, my new driver's license hasn't arrived yet, but my ticket is in my married name.  I have to get to the airport ridiculously early tomorrow to make sure TSA will take my old driver's license + marriage license.  FML.

    Anything about exercise and deep fried turkeys don't go in a sentence together.

    However, deep fried turkeys are amazing.

  • I've never had deep fried turkey, but it sounds delicious.
    Beachy - I figured you'd be around, but it's so dead here!
    And Fishy is cheating on us.

  • I want a deep fried turkey.  I hope my H's southern relatives fry their turkey, but they're all originally from the midwest, so they probably won't.
  • DNB - are you staying on the west coast for the holiday or did you go home to your family?
  • Yeah, I have nobody to go out with, and I'd probably feel a little guilty if I was out and H is stuck on a boat.

  • I was driving home, and went over some tracks and head a thud.  I thought I hit something (insert sadface)  but I couldn't see anything in the rearview mirror.  I wasn't in a nice area, so I just kept driving.  Got home and had a flat.  At least I don't need my car at 5 am, so H won't have to change it when he gets home from work :)
    I'm trying to figure out a little shelter to build for my kitty outside.  We're in a townhouse, so it can't be anything huge and obvious, but I wanted to put something out there so he has some shelter.   That is my research for the night.

  • I stayed on the west coast.  Its too long of a flight and too expensive to go home for this and Christmas.  So I'm just going home for 2 weeks at Christmas instead.

  • Hahaha I started singing that too as i typed it.

  • My Jeep is giving me the low tire pressure light right now, and I know its just because of how cold it got all of a sudden and it changed the air pressure.  But its been way too cold the last 2 days to put air in.

  • That was requested at our wedding - the DJ was very hesitant to play it,  but finally gave it.  The funny thing is, it was requested by my MOH's aunt who is in her 50's.

  • We are going to H's aunt's tomorrow for lots of food.  I need to get my football picks finished for the family "turkey bowl"  Gotta get em in before the first game starts tomorrow.
  • I have never had a deep fried turkey either.  I want to :).
  • Pick the hot ones, Loopy.  In football news, I hope Urlacher breaks Vicks neck this weekend.  Literally.

  • I'm actually not spending Thanksgiving alone now, even though it really didn't bother me.  My neighbor has her parents in town, and they were supposed to go to their friends' house across the sound for dinner.  I really didn't want to eat dinner with strangers so I declined the invite to go with them.  But now because of the weather they've decided to stay home, and I said we could just do dinner here since my kitchen is bigger.  So I went from Thanksgiving by myself to now hosting dinner.  Luckily they're doing the turkey.

  • Cougarette - where in SC are you?  H's parents moved down there in January, they are just outside Hilton Head.

  • KJB - I need to pick 20 hot ones... 15 pro games and 5 college games between tomorrow and Monday night.  Pick the winner and assign a point value 1-20 to each game.  If you pick the winning team you get the number of points assigned to the game.  We've done it every year for like 20 years now with the extended family.  And now, with e-mail we start slinging smack talk a week or two before Thanksgiving and through the whole weekend. :).

    [QUOTE]I was worried you'd be all alone on Thanksgiving.  That would be depressing, I think.  Are you starting to meet people out there?  
    Posted by Loopyseven[/QUOTE]

    Thanks.  Yeah I've met a few people, I've gotten really close with my neighbor though.  And actually our H's met on the ship because we told them to look for eachother, so it will be nice when they come home too.

  • Well, IM BACK NOW. I'm not like those other boys.

  • Loopy- I'll vote for Stanford since it's H's alma mater.

    It is so cold here.  I tried turning on the heater for the first time since we moved in, and it doesn't seem to be working!  Eeek.  I am freezing, wearing wool socks with shoes on, my dog-walking coat on indoors.  Brrrrrr.
