Christmas belly and feeling sick....

So everyone, since I haven't posted an HNT in FOREVER.... I decided to post a lovely picture of my post christmas belly. Now, I really didn't pig out over Christmas, but I've been sick for two weeks and I haven't been to the gym in about a month now. So, I feel sooo lazy and bloated. I recently decided to try the relationship thing, (yeah I know... WHAT AM I THINKING?) so being sick really sucks. I feel so un-sexy!!!! Is that a word? Anyway, I feel like shit and I'm extrememly self consious of my snotty nose, heavy breathing through mouth which causes chapped lips and phlelgm inducing cough which makes me feel like my breath is like
draculas. Not to mention... bad skin & cloudy tired eyes.
Thank goodness the guy I'm seeing has been sick also
I can't wait to get well, then I hope I'll get to the gym,
do my yoga and start on a new year.
Any New Years resolutions out there


I think I'm going to quit my job soon.
Most of you know how much I hate it.
I'm just too chicken shit to actually do it.
I hate to leave someone hanging.
But, as someone told me today...
I am what matters.
And if my health is directly effected by my job,
mental and physical,
then I need to look out for myself.
He asked me what I wanted to do.
And I couldn't answer.
Why at 33 do I not know what I want to do?


Okay, that was quite the tangent. I hope everyone has a great New Years. I'll be working, once again.
I am going to make the New Year count.

Merry Christmas

Just wanted to send everyone very Merry Christmas thoughts and wishes!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did get a camera, so woo hoo.... I can start having fun with pictures again. I thought I'd send everyone a good Christmas morning picture to everyone, until I looked in the mirror. SCARY!!! Besides, I have to figure out how to work the damn thing anyway! I'm off to my parents house for a day full of family, friends and food. YEAH!!!!!!

Merry Christmas to all my blogger friends out there!!!!!!!!!!!

Helloooooooooooo Everybody

I just got my new puter hooked up and online. It feels great. Except that the screen is bigger than the keyboard, hey I just realized that. Wired. Note to self, bigger keyboard. It feels funny. Anyway.... Just wanted to post and say that I was up and running. Now, I hope to post more than I did before, or at least with more frequency than I have been. I hope everyone is having a fantastic holiday season. I sure can't seem to get into the groove of it at all. Last year I was going to soo many parties in HHI, and I was definitely in the spirit even though it was like 75 degrees there. This year, I can't seem to get into it. I tried to suggest a fun dinner with friends to celebrate the season, you know... Fancy dress, dinner, cocktails, good conversation and maybe dancing later and they all acted like that was the strangest thing ever. Now, I was talking just a nice dinner and such, they turned it into having some sort of party bus or something. Now, if we were in a big city, then great... Let's eat dinner, have drinks and bar hop in the limo. Big time!!!! But, let's face it ... my town has no cool bars to bar hop to. You want to bar hop to places to be seen and to be fabulous at, not the local watering hole where there is a line of trucks and El Caminos outside and a slew of Mullets waiting inside and they've never heard of a Cosmo and their idea of a glass of wine is Beringer White Zin. Now, that all sounds negative and snobby, I know, and god bless this town... but... I wanted to "go out out" (like that, LMAO!) You know, like fabulous food, fabulous fun and fabulous people. (why the hell am I using the word fabulous soo much? ) I'm such a dork. It just seems like the "going out" that people like to do in this town is to drink beer, get wasted and get laid. That seems to be the objective. No one celebrates, well except for the annual Christmas party that all the places of business have of course to show their employees how much they care about them. Well, and most bosses make the employees pay for their dinner. That's shitty! Now this little shing ding was supposed to happen Friday night, and already people are backing out. Well, that's okay. I'd rather just hang out with Weed, maybe my sister and eat a good dinner, laugh like freaks and then get a buzz and maybe just maybe get my ass on the dance floor at Diggers (that's only a possiblity Weed!) and get to bed early. That would be an ideal Christmas party for me here. LOL! Also, another bitch about the season.... The cold weather doesn't make me think of Jolly times for Christmas, it makes me think that it's fucking cold and there's no way I'm going to the gym. I'm going to hibernate in my house all day and night. I hate it when I feel that way. I haven't been to the gym in three weeks. That's HORRIBLE!!!!! The weather makes me feel lazy, but my health hasn't been the best either. I've seriously had a cold or something forever it feels. It's soooooooo annoying. Tomorrow, I'm going. I'm going to go run, and then I'm going to come home and do this kickass yoga DVD I got . Or maybe vise versa, but anyway... I'm going to do the yoga DVD for sure. The running depends on if I'm not hacking up my lungs still tomorrow. Hopefully my nose will be clear so I can do the DVD also. Breathe in Breathe out. Well, now that I've been a snob and rambled about lack of "fabulous" establishments in my town, and disgusted you with how snotty my nose is and how much phlegm I can cough up, I'll let you all sleep tight and have a wonderful night!

Greetings from OZ

Actually, I can't say OZ. Kansas definitely isn't like some fairy tale land called OZ. It's fricken cold and barren. Well, except for the eastern side of the state. It's pretty there. Actually, Kansas isn't that bad. I'm just pissy because it's so damn cold here. I guess I just have to get used to it. First I want to apologize to everyone for not keeping this blog up. I've been busy with life and have neglected to vent and post for therapy for quite sometime. Secondly, I don't have a digital camera anymore, so hopefully I will get one soon so I can have fun posting pics of my world for you all to see. Thirdly, I won't be posting again for a while because my home computer has officially died and I have to get a new one. I would post from work, if I could have sometime in the office. But, my job is one of those jobs where there isn't any down time, and your constantly on the go from the moment you walk through the door until you walk out it at night. Today I slept all afternoon, so I decided to hang out and post this before I went home. I'm not going to get rid of this blog, because I really do enjoy reading the comments and I look forward to reading everyone else's blogs. I also enjoy the therapeutic factor of it. I probably won't write more until the new year, unless I get my puter at home working. I just wanted to say hello, and I wish everyone the best holiday season.

I do want to say something though real quick.... Why isn't life fair sometimes?

I know, struggles build character, they give you strength and wisdom.... blah blah blah.....

I really don't want to hear it.

It's all true, but now I'm just frustrated....

what am I doing with my life? Why isn't it working out? What am I doing wrong? Why can't I be in love? Why is the one that would be the closest the furthest away? Why don't I know for sure it would be him? What do I want to do with my life? Why don't I like what I'm best at? Why am I so scared to to develop my creative side? Why can't I be more secure? Why do I go through most of my day uncomfortable? Why do I feel so hopeless? Why can't I relax?

just why?

okay, enough of my rambling....

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season. I'm sooo excited to hang out with my niece on Christmas. She will just be 1. Isn't that cute?

I will check in as often as I can.

Happy Holidays!!!!

2 drink confused ramblings

Have you ever felt that something has changed and not been able to pinpoint when it changed?

Or
Have you realized after-the-fact (whatever it was), that you felt different than you thought you would, and wondered when you changed how you felt in the first place?

those thoughts are kinda the same ... but what about...

What happens when you know something has changed and you don't have a clue what to do with it.
I feel lost. Unsure. Kinda relaxed, but kinda anxious. A bit sad, but only in the "whatever happens will happen" kinda way. Which I guess could be anxiety. Hmmmm....
I don't know what to do with my emotions.
That's the bottom line.

What I have done is: been a goofball at work, cooked dinner for the family, thought a lot, stared at nothing, stared at the candle, walked around, loved on my cat (real animal, you pervs LOL) , and listened to the silence. Oh yeah, and fixed a cocktail and then another. No, I haven't been smoking any pot tonight either, LOL. Although, that's not a bad idea....... nope, no need to make my brain analyze me anymore than it already is. I'm already starting to get a headache.

I like control,
and right now I don't feel like I have control of my emotions.
I don't know what to do with that.
And,
I don't know what to do with the loss of control.

National Breast Awareness Month

Hello everyone! In honor of National Breast Awareness Month, I thought I'd post one of my favorite pictures of my boobies again.

Now, I know I bitch about the torture of the contraption we women call a fucking bra, and men call over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder. Every women does, but... I have to say that I am so glad that I have healthy breast to put in to a bra. My grandmother on my fathers side had breast cancer and ended up dying from it, and my aunt on my mothers side has always had issues with her breast. I remember when I was young coming across my grandmothers foam boob inserts, and looking at them with a young girls wonder. I was in sixth grade when she passed away, and I really don't remember if I had started to develop my breast at that time, but I remember not understanding why it was such a big deal to my grandmother to have the foam inserts in her bra. They weren't that big anyway, it's not like they gave her gigantic boobs. LOL. I remember first there being one insert, and then there being two inserts and then they were gone. I believe, if I remember correctly, I asked my Aunt Kim one time were they were and she said grandmother (that's what she insisted on being called) didn't need them anymore. Now my grandmother was a very classy lady, always perfectly coifed and dressed. Very regal all the time. God forbid if she didn't look impeccable 24/7. It must of broke her heart to not have her breast, her womanhood. I can't imagine what it would of felt like for her on that one day when she decided not to put a bra on and the inserts in.

I am 33, and I have my breasts.

Now they aren't perfect by any means, and Weed and I always talk about getting boob jobs,

but I have them and I am sooo thankful for that.

I know, this is a lame post for HNT.

I don't have a digital camera anymore.

But you know what...

it's exactly where I want to be right now.

I'm really missing Hilton Head and all my friends there.

Pretty damn bad.

I rode the short bus

Hello again everyone! I haven't been posting because I cleared out my cookies and temporary internet files and when I did that I deleted my log on information that I had saved. So for weeks now, I've been trying to remember what my log on and password were. Today, out of the blue I just typed in what I thought they were again, and presto! It's like magic. So, I apologize for not posting earlier, but I is a retard for not remembering my own log in information.
Anyway,
I just got back from a cool canoeing trip with Weed and the Wedding Party. I seriously didn't think it was possible to drink that much in one day. Shit, I was wasted by noon everyday we were there. But, I had a great time. The Wedding Party is a cool bunch of people to hang out with, they are such great people. Weed of course is a dork, but... just joking Weed. It was super cool to get to hang out with her for an extended amount of time. We haven't got to do that in a very long time. So all in all, it was a fantastic Labor Day weekend. Well, except that I'm too fucking nice and dove into the water after a water gun and screwed up my left calf pretty badly. Then, the next day the canoe I was in hit a tree and sank, I fucked up my left forearm, wrist and hand in that little ditty. No worries though, it's all battle scars from a crazy, fun weekend. I'd do it all again. I hope everyone else had a great Labor Day weekend as well.

Happy HNT!

Today I started to go through all my old photos to get some to put up in my new place and I came upon a trip Weed and I took to Arkansas many a moons ago. Weed, do you remember these? LOL
They are a riot!

Now in defense of her looking like the hoochie, I have some photos of me in almost the exact same poses as her, but dang it, I can't seem to find them. LOL

Anyway, I came across this photo that was taken on the trip and it always seems to amaze me. I looked pretty good for as pissed off as I was that Weed took that picture of me.

That was sooo long ago! I wouldn't be caught dead in a bikini now. Thank god for old pictures to remind you of how you used to look!

Or do we really want to be reminded?

Happy HNT!

The sad goodbye finally

Here are some pictures that I promised.

I will miss the beauty of Hilton Head, and I already miss the friends I made there tremendously.

The pictures are of times spent, places seen & experiences had.

Finally, I'm back

Well, I finally made it home and I feel like a tornado has already ran me over. I'm not sure if it's the four day move or Saturday nights "welcome home" festivities that Weed made me participate in

(sounds naughty doesn't it?)

or that I feel like I'm walking around in a Ghost town with ghosts from my past but...Whatever the case, I can tell you that I feel like shit.

I'm searching for Toto to comfort me in an unfamiliar place & the Lion to give me courage to be here after 10 years.

The Tin Man would come in handy if he were properly oiled and he had not found his heart yet, then these emotions wouldn't affect me so much. Oh and I've got to find that fricken Scarecrow, maybe he has my brain, because I'm pretty sure I didn't have it when I made this decision.

Okay, not too be too negative because it has only been three days (I know).... but I've absolutely fallen in-love with my little niece. I told myself over and over that I would not allow her to be a spoiled brat,

but damn it...

if she's not the cutest, sweetest and happiest baby ever,

then I don't know what.

I'm already smitten, damn it.

I hope everyone had a fantastic week while I was gone!

Saying goodbye part 2: the heart wrenching departure

Okay guys, sorry to disappoint you, but I have to load up the puter before I will get the chance to post the last part of my Goodbye Series.

I promise that I will post beautiful pictures as soon as I get settled in and maybe I'll turn it into a hello and goodbye thing.

Anyway, everyone take care!

I'll miss you while I'm gone.

Saying goodbye.......

Hello Everyone!
I thought I'd post some fun pictures that I have.
All these pictures are from the two bars that
I worked at.
Funny

I don't have any pictures from my real job

I had while living here.

Anyway,
I've meet some fantastic people.
I'm going to miss them terribly.
But, I know that I'm taking a little bit of them
with me.

The first four are from Montego Bay.
It's the bar I worked at there and
"the boys"

They were so much fun!!!!
Love you guys
















The last two pictures are of the sports bar I
worked at named
Casey's.
Sorry they are so blurry.

It was hard to hold the camera straight
after few shots and beers. I'm just joking.

I loved working at Casey's!

They were like my surrogate family during my time here.

Great friendships were formed at this establishment.

So, that is my little ode to work for my time spent in Hilton Head.

I feel bad that I don't have any pictures to display of my "real job". But, just so you know, I didn't spend all my time hanging out in bars. LOL!

I was the Beach Club Coordinator for one of the plantations on the island. I received an award for the work I did for them at the annual meeting last November. At my going away lunch, I received a wonderful framed original artists rendering of the architectural design for the building that I managed for them. My job there was a great learning experience and once again, I met some wonderful people.

Tomorrow I am going to post some more pictures of my time spent on HHI.

Friends, places & scenery.

I will miss this place!

OMG

hey everyone! I'm sooo sorry that I haven't posted much lately. Maybe this blogger thing isn't for me. But, I have been overwhelmed (which you guys already know) with training the new girl and trying to get everything situated and ready for the move. Tonight, I've been packing FOREVER and it doesn't even look like I've made a dent. Mind you, I am definitely not a pack rat, in fact it drives my mom crazy how much I throw away all the time. Actually, I don't throw it away, I donate it to Goodwill or the Salvation Army. But, it disgusts me how much money I spend on nonsense. I've got soo much better, but I have a long way to go still which is quite evident in this packing excursion. But, that can be a whole other post.
Through the last few weeks, I've done a lot of soul searching and I've really been battling with my choice to move, where I'm moving, the job I'm taking, the reasons why I'm moving and why I didn't go somewhere else. I seriously think I've damaged my brain. LOL. Anyway, I'm doing it. I'm praying that there is a guardian angel watching over me and I don't turn into the person I once was and I continue on my path to my happiness. I hope that they are giving me push on the back to make me continue. Or wait, could the nagging in my gut be just nervousness or my angel punching me? LOL Can't decide, but I just keep on trucking!
Here's my HNT, sorry so late and so lame.
Unfortunately it's something I probably won't be doing for a long time.

Dang it!

I probably wont post next week, no puter on Thursday. I'll probably be back the next week with all sorts of stories of a road trip from hell with a mom, a dad, a cat, and of course Elvis. Should be interesting!

Okay, so they say it's your Birthday. Right?

That's all I could think of saying to represent what I am feeling. Not that I'm a Birthday freak or anything. I never want to celebrate, or call attention to the fact that it's my birthday. I've just never thought it was a big deal. Most of my friends think it's the greatest thing ever, but I just consider it to be another day. Anyway.......
I'm sitting here at my puter @ 2:30 am wondering why it didn't feel more special, and then in turn contemplating why I felt it should of been. I had a pretty atypical birthday day so to speak. I worked for an hour and a half, then I drove 30 minutes to the Mazda dealership to have them do the 30,000.00 mile service (because they said it should be done) & had them check the brakes for the trip. NO courtesy car (yes, I made an appt, but whatever) so I walked about a mile in the heat to the Super Walmart. Sat at Blimpe (because it was the only food for miles) and read the latest edition of Poeple. I remarked to myself about how I wasn't more upset or frustrated and that it felt good to just sit because you had too and relax because you had the time to do it. Hung out in Walmart, bought toothpaste, lip gloss and a cool shirt. Heading back down the road in the heat to find out that I needed brakes and it would be another 250.00. Nice, I said. How long before they go? By the next oil change. Double cool. Will make appt in the next week, wanted to puke on the floor because stomach so upset because of the money. No money, got to get back to Kansas okay... yuck. Stomach upset. Anyway, leave there and head to house to shower and get ready to go out. Post boobie shot on blog, YIPPY!, and then head out to the bar. Friends already feeling no pain. A new friend (met through other friend) is a great gal, but she's very loud and very vocal. So, the evening consisted of her entertaining everyone at the bar. Not because she does flips and tricks, but because she was so loud and has this Boston accent that screams "pay attention to me". Have you ever had a friend that you hang out with that is just exhausting to be around? That was her. Anyway, as I sat at the corner of the bar staring off into space, Thomas walked in. He's the boy that I just recently wrote about that had baggage and we had that wierd alchohol fused chemistry with? Anyway, he was nice and we just hung out for a bit. Then my horn dog of a friend said she'd take my place. She's crazy! She was serious. Thomas didn't know what to say, it was a hoot. Anyway, so I'm back at home feeling a little jinky reflecting on the day and thinking to myself, "hey wasn't to day supposed to be wonderful?" But, then I felt selfish because hey, I got shit done that needed to get done & my friends had a great time. And, quite possibly I made a match between two friends. LOL.

They say it's my birthday......... part two

Okay, let's try this again..............

OKAY, so it's just a boobie shot. But hey, that's pretty crazy for me!

All the other pictures I took, screamed

"HIT THE GYM - BOOB LIFT - LIPO"

Happy HNT Everyone

They say it's your Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello everyone.

It's official, I'm 33 today.

Not sure how to feel about it.

So in honor of it being my birthday

here's me in my birthday suit.

(I've been trying to post a picture here for the last 30 minutes,

Blogger is sucking today. I'll try again later, fuck)

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday!

Pivoting

Happy HNT Everyone!!!!!!!!!

View 1

Upside down View

I'm sorry I haven't been around for a couple of days.

It's been total chaos since I've made my decision to move. Now I can't decide where to go. I've been hashing out soooo much shit in my mind that I've become brain dead. So, in honor of trying to get focused and relaxed I decided to post a picture of my tattoo.

It is the chinese character for the word Pivoting.

Stay grounded but always rotate.

Happy HNT!

This is how my Wednesday went....
I mailed, email & faxed resumes all afternoon long.

Nice, I know, while I was at work.

LOL
Then I went for a run.

I contemplated not doing it, but I'm soooo glad I did.

After soo much mental strain today, I really needed to let go.

I ran my ass off.

Well, I wish I would of, but hey it felt like it.

Eventually it will get off me.

4 miles, not bad.
Then I had a great dinner of nonsense with wine,

then a hot bath.




It felt great to not have to work tonight.

And,
I had a great run!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I forced myself to run.

&

I got a shit load done for my move.

I feel so much better now. Big pat on the back!

But now I'm pissed because I lost my 50 some odd questionaire that I did while I was waiting to post this HNT. Fuck, that just irritates the shit out of me. But, I'm not going to get my panties in a bunch.

I will answer the questionaire as my post tomorrow or the next day.

No Worries

Good night and sweet dreams my little angels.

UP date

hey, I posted a draft today with an update for the Fourth of July. But, apparently it post on the date that you originally saved it. So, to get the up date, you need to scroll back to July 6th. Sorry, didn't know that it worked that way

Tonight, I broke my heart again

Tonight I broke my heart because I devastated another's. This is why I don't get close.
Bear with me...
I met him on the fourth of July, which stories still have to be told of that evening. But, to give it in a simplified version, I picked up a guy and took him home (well, actually to his house) and had awesome sex with him and a lot of fun hanging out with him. Now, I'm pretty damn sure that is the only time, well except for one other time, that I've ever done that. And I am struggling with feeling like a whore because of it. But, let's face it... Sometimes we are just in the mood for whatever, ( no matter what it is, not necessarily sex) and do we deprive ourselves just for what others deem to be wrong with whatever it is we are feeling? Anyway,
the chemistry is there.
Seriously there.
He is absolutely not what I want. No way. Drives a motorcycle, not a Harley or a Chopper type, but something like a Honda. And, he drives an 80's Camero. Yes, you heard it right folks, an 80's era Camero. But, bless his heart, he has a lot of pride in it, and that's not a bad thing. He's from NY. 38, two kids with ex, lives with a roommate in a dorm type condo, has some issues with his finances that I haven't quite figured out. Not that financial stuff is an issue at this point, but something to do with a girl that wants to fuck him opening up a checking account for him. YES, I see all the RED flags. I'm not blind. But, there are serious sparks.
So much so, that I knew I needed to lay it all out on the line before it got any deeper.
After only screwing him Tuesday night, and talking to him on Wednesday and talking to him today (Friday), I felt a HUGE pull to let him know what was going on with me. Now, most would probably say that is a little soon to drop it off like it is, because technically we haven't even been on our first date much less talked about ourselves and what have you. But, once again, we just clicked. I had to be honest. So I told him how it was.
I told him that I'm very independent. If he's looking for a girlfriend, I'm not going to be it. I don't like lots of phone calls a day, or a huge amount of hangin out either. I'm a loner. Then I dropped the bomb, also I'm moving home within a month or two. He looked at me with those big blue eyes, devastated. What? I said I'm sorry. He was floored. I told him that we needed to decide what we were going to do because the feelings were so strong between us. He agreed. He said he knew the chemistry between us was so strong that he knew it was too much of a good thing. I agreed also. I said, we could either hang out and have fun over the next month or so, or go a head and drop it here. We run the risk of getting to close if we continue to hang out. He wants to try to convince me to stay and he will take care of me. (LOL, yes I know, we already had those types of conversations after meeting for the second time.) But, it's not going to happen. I'm going home. He's got too much baggage, and I know if I were to stay we wouldn't stay together forever. He's a bit of a thug I think. I think he might have a temper too. I can't decide. Do I sound like I'm trying to convince myself? I am. We have so much fun. I just melt when I'm around him. Yuck!!!! Anyway, once again it broke my heart to have to break his. It was like I sucked the life out of him when I told him. It was so sad. I'm not trying to sound conceited or anything, by saying he fell in love with me and such at all, but it was obvious that I didn't make his night.
So, now I don't know where we are. He said to call him tomorrow if I wanted to continue to see each other. He does, of course he wants to convince me to stay. Or should I just let it die and a little bit of us will die with it? Crap. Damn it Damn it Damn it

Channeling Madonna

I couldn't find a yearbook picture, but here's my freshman dance picture. Definitely was into Madonna, don't you think?

Now here's my recent picture. Thank god Weed convinced me to get my eyebrows done back in the day.

THANK YOU WEED!!!!!

Fourth of July shenanigans

I know this is a bit late, but I've had this in my "draft" file forever!










My friends and I hung out at this cute little bar for the fourth for about 5 hours. Needless to say, we were drunk bitches when we left. Then we went to another bar! Geez........ And for the rest of the night, you already read that post. But, as a follow up to that one, I actually hung out with him on Sunday, and man is he not my type. Great guy, nice and stuff, but we are soooo different that even if I were to stay here, we would never make it. Sexual tension combined with alcohol definitely was what the "chemistry" was that I so adamantly said we had. What a dork I am. Now, problem is to make him see it. We shall see.

That's what I get for drinking for 5+ hours. Sheeeeeeeettt.

Sweet Torture

My bra is killing me! It was 2:30am when I finally got home from work. I couldn't wait until I could get this thing off and head to bed. Then I started laughing about the post I did a while ago about the pain of wearing a bra. Then I looked at my ta-ta's, and said, damn this bra makes my boobies look good as I pranced around in front of the mirror. So, here you go Sal and everyone else. Here's a picture of pure torture.
Happy HNT!

Hey guys, I'm sorry I'm posting so late.

This is the best I could come up with right now.

Happy HNT!!!!!

As promised

Weed!

Here you go, as promised this Monday and next Monday I will post my prom picutres.

I only found two different years.

This one in my Junior picture.

Man, I look like a bitch.

Damn. Anyway, maybe this will give everyone a laugh on another nasty Monday.

Check out that saucy hair do!

LOL

Another day at work...........

What a great Sunday!

I wake up to a cloudy sky and a cloudy head, as you already know.
Then it starts to rain like crazy. Not good for the bride and groom that are getting married at noon on the deck. Definatly not good for me, since the mother of the bride thinks I'm god and can make the rain stop.

Then, the roof starts to leak. LOL, yep... no shit.

So, I called the AC boys and told them to come after 3 to check it out. Then I spent the duration of the wedding reception emptying bus tubs full of water that I had propped up underneath the AC unit in the attic. I carried a total of 15 gallons down those fricken stairs. Fun! I had to rigg it up, so that the water wouldn't just drain on the floor of the attic which of course would cause the ceiling to cave in on the the mother of the bride's table conviently located very close to the leaking part of the ceiling.


Then the sky broke.

Then the leak stopped, and slowly but surely the ceiling started to dry out. That's when I finally was able to take some pictures of it. Next, the sun came out. Yippy!

Now, party is over. They are happy and I'm off to the house for a cocktail and a nice bath. The headache I woke up with is still here, and I'm hoping a little hair of the dog with make it go away.

Ruff! Ruff!

One Bourbon, One Scotch and One Beer....

Good morning!
Do I sound chipper? I'm practicing. I have a hangover and I've got to work this morning. Fuck. I didn't really drink that much, it's just been a while since I've drank as much as I did. We had a great time though.

Don't we look like it? LOL

Oh, I only had one of those shots.

That round anyway!

Breaking ties

Just a quick OMG... I just broke it off with my convenient / "really want to be with him" fuck. Over IM. LOL, how funny. Sorry, no... not really funny, kinda tacky actually. But, he texted me while I was at work, and I didn't dare to text back so late. So I sent him an IM to tell him that I didn't' want to call or text this late. & I figured that now was better than never. He was just looking to get laid anyway, since I've ignored him for a month. I really just haven't been feeling it lately. Well, at least not with him. Tonight, I was just talking about how horny I was and that I wasn't going to break down and call "old reliable". I just don't want to be with him anymore. Not that we were together, but we were fucking and talking. Actually we had a great thing going. No commitments, no strings attached, good friendship. But, I'm just over it with him. Sound crude? It does by reading this, but there is more to the story. I'm just too tired to talk about it right now. I just wanted to say "OMG, I can't believe I just broke up with someone I'm not really seeing or should be seeing through an IM" Can you break up with someone when your not really seeing them? I felt the need to do the "break up" primarily because we are more emotionally and mentally connected than a typical "drunken friend fuck". I felt that out of respect to him and me, I needed to officially say "Hey, I'm ignoring you because I'm not into you anymore" I will elaborate at a later date. He can be used in the Demons section if and when I ever get to it. Anyway, just for every person out there, I did the cop out thing and "broke up" with someone in a cowardly way. I think you should always do the nasty work face to face. It's more respectful. But, oh well.... It's done. There's nothing I can do about it. Sleep tight fellow bloggers. And I really hope Weed is drinking the wedding party under the table tonight. I know she can drink. Have fun girl!

Another Night at the Office........

Okay, done with work. Or I mean, I'm done with what work I felt like doing. so I sit here and think all sorts of random thoughts. About the day, about people, about things.....

About the day -
with in the last two days I've been to TJ Max three times. First I bought clothes, then I tried them on at home, went back to exchange them out for more and a pair of shoes, then I went back again because those clothes didn't fit like I wanted them too. Now you ask, why not try on there? Well, because I was in a hurry both times and was with my boss. So, we just cruised through there really quick before lunch. We are both addicted to TJ Max.
Next, I went bra shopping. Ladies, you all know how fun that is. But, I was on a mission. I had to get a new bra, or two to go under my new sheer shirts. I HATE bra shopping. It's like the one necessary thing we need, but it's the most dreaded shopping experience in our life. Now boys, you guys go "what's the big deal?" "it's just a bra?" Yes, we know that believe me. But, how you see our boobies everyday is dependent upon what bra we wear. You see them as nice, perky, round or even possibly as voluptuous. We know they are pulled up, strapped in, pushed together, made fuller and nipples contained. So men reading this, thank your girl for going through the pain of bra shopping just so that we can give you the illusion that our boobs are perfect. Now I speak of course to those of us women out there that need to wear a bra for whatever reason. For all of you perky girls that don't need to wear a bra, fuck off and die. LOL

About people -
My boss informed me today that it is very evident when I don't like a person. Damn it man! I thought I was being sneaky. LOL. Actually, it caused me to wonder... is that a bad thing?
If someone asks me something, I tell them the truth. I won't lie. If need be, I can weasel out of being too brutally honest, but over all I think I'm honest with tack. But, if it's obvious when I don't like someone by my actions and reactions to them, then that bothers me. I don't want to be a "bitch". I try to be very polite and respectful to everyone. But, if I think someone is just stupid and ignorant I do have a hard time respecting them. So, I guess it shows. We were referencing our Chef of Security, and his attitude towards me the last couple of days. I guess he's pissed off at me, he's probably had enough of my disrespect. Tee- Hee!!! He's got to be the most ignorant person that I've ever worked with, or at least one of them. Obviously, it my feelings must show. LOL, thank god he's not my boss. But, I still feel shitty. So, I'm going to make a conscious effort to show more respect, he is an elder and his wife is slowly dying of cancer.
Crap, I feel bad now.

About things -
All this thinking about how I show my feelings got me thinking about why I was feeling so negative. The last time I felt so irritated by people, situations, work or whatever..... I at a very negative time in my life. I was running a bar back home, and I was soo stressed out. I wasn't a nice person, now some wouldn't think that, but I didn't feel like a nice person. and I'm sure my employees & vendors felt that way sometimes. I let the tiniest of things get to me. It was always this or always that it seemed. Now I know part of that was because of the responsibilities I had, but I think a lot of it was just because I wasn't happy with my life at that point. Then I moved, and life changed. I opened up, became happier and much more relaxed. Now I have moved again, and I've only been here for a year. Beautiful scenery, beautiful people. New experiences, new ideas. So, why do I feel so crappy? Why do I have that tightening through my shoulders again? Is it because I am in control of something again? I have serious job responsibilities again? Possibly, but when I lived in my previous place, I ran a retail store. I had responsibilities there. Or did I? Not really, the owner and I were really the only two people that worked there, besides Christmas time. So, she never really let go. I just had the pay and fancy title. Maybe it was the lack of responsibility that made me a more relaxed person. That would make sense, but I like control. So, I'm not quite sure what it is. Why am I so unhappy? Some would think my job is super cool, the place I live in great and so on. I feel guilty that I'm not more thankful for what I have. But, I am. I just am not happy. Do I move? Do I stay and focus on me? Do I move and focus on me? I need to figure it out though, this black cloak that covers me needs to be lifted. It's weighing me down. Damn it!

HNT

Okay Weed, here you go.

Everyone,
this is the inspirational picture for weeds famous character of me.

I Love it!

LMAO

Big Sister 101

Wednesday night -

I had every intention tonight of talking about demons. I had been working up to it all day. But, then I got blind sighted with a phone call.

My younger brother, the youngest of the family, called me for advice.
Left me a message that said, "Please call me back. It's kinda important."

Family history in short form: Moved out when I was 17, been back (in house) off and on since then. Big age gap between me an other siblings, next oldest is 6 yrs younger than me. Caller just turned 21 in December. I wasn't really around while they (the other siblings) were growing up.

First thought? He's in Jail or trouble and I don't' have the money to bail him out. Fuck! Not that he's a bad kid, but...... I'm afraid that I'm considered to be the "cool older sister" that parties and such, so why not call her instead of the parental units when in trouble.
Thankfully, that wasn't the case.
Instead, he needed advice on what to do with his life.
And he needed to make a decision today.
"Please tell me your in jail and I need to come up with some money!"
That's what I wanted to scream when he started with his questioning. That response was 100 times easier than trying to frantically search for some good solid sound advice that would make a difference to him and in turn make a difference in his life.
Shit, the pressure!
How do you give advice when you need it yourself?
I was honest. I am always honest. I can't not be honest. I have to be true to myself. It's unfair to everyone that knows me if I'm not true to myself. Then they won't actually know me.
Wow, did I get off on a tantrum or what? I think that's the Demon speech I had prepared coming out.
I've got to get some sleep.

Today -
To continue my story...
I gave him my honest opinion. Which isn't always what the person questioning wants to hear. Well, he called me back last night to tell me that he took my advice. Whew...
First test score: A+
First lesson learned: Get your act together because others look to you for advice and as a role model.
Crap!

On another note, I've got to get going because Weed is nagging at me to get my HNT up today, not tonight. So I've got to ditch the office for a bit to head home and get that up. I hope everyone has a great Thursday! Thanks for letting me ramble.
(forgive all spelling errors, spell check isn't working)

Owner Appreciation Day

Hello Everyone!

Owner Appreciation Day sucks!

Answer stupid questions about the Beach Club.
Answer stupid questions about rental of the Beach Club.
Listen to residental property owners bitch because it's not a community center, seeing as they paid for it of course.
Listen to Timeshare owners bitch because it doesn't have a bar or restaruant.
Listen to everyone bitch because it's not open to the public.
My head is going to explode.................

But,
There is some ammusment.
There are some interesting people that walk down this parking lot to the beach.
Very interesting

Oh and of course, I got to scan my head.

Now, don't tell me there isn't fun to be had in all situations! LOL
