Can I Just Go Back To Bed, Please?
2008-04-17 16:36:00 *bashes head repeatedly into her desk* Almost 10:30 and I haven’t even been to work yet. It’s been a day. A very, very, VERY bad day so far. Many thanks to the goddamned asshole that was tailgating me this morning. If it wasn’t for him, I’d be sitting at my desk at work, getting things done. As it ... More About: Work , Back
Tomorrow Is Another Day.
2008-04-16 06:18:00 The Flyers won. They dominated the Caps. It was beautiful. Washington fans are up in arms, calling the Flyers goons and all of their fans thugs. Instead of railing against the Flyers and those that support them, how about screaming at your own damn team that hasn’t shown up to play for the last two ... More About: Work , Tomorrow , Ice Hockey
Light Me Up.
2008-04-16 06:00:00 Years ago, my CRX was broken into, and everything that wasn’t fastened down was stolen, including my big police-issue flashlight. I always keep a flashlight in my car, because you never know when you’re going to break down at night and need one to see! I got another police-issue flashlight, but unfortunately, it hasn’t made ...

Let?s Go Flyers!
2008-04-16 02:51:00 Playoff hockey makes my nerves go nuts. Especially when my Flyers are involved. OY. I’m wearing the same Flyers shirt that I wore Sunday when they shut out the Caps. Superstitious? Hell, yeah. The shirt I was wearing Friday when they lost will stay in the laundry bin until the playoffs are done. ... More About: Ice Hockey
Friday?s Too Far Away.
2008-04-15 16:12:00 *sigh* No, my new computer’s not built yet. I just ordered another part for it that I suddenly decided I NEEDED (a card reader with a floppy drive!) last night. The motherboard is in the new case, and the processor’s been installed, but that’s about the extent of it. Besides, hubby’s computer blew up. ... More About: Friday
Massage Your Stress Away.
2008-04-15 04:54:00 Did you know that April is Stress Awareness Month? I sure didn’t, and I know that I’m someone who really needs to lower her stress levels. Life in general has been a major stressor for me the past six months or so. The kitchen remodel, the destructive younger cat, the husband’s ADD, work, my ... More About: Massage , Stuff
Do NOT Question My Allegiance To My Team.
2008-04-14 20:05:00 Just so we are clear on one thing…first and foremost, I am a die-hard Flyers fan. For some reason, I have been taking a lot of flack this season because I’m an avid fan of four different NHL teams. I am a hockey fan. I love the game. But… Let me repeat this… I ...

Desperate For A Good Night?s Sleep.
2008-04-14 17:02:00 It has been decided. Hubby and I had a long discussion about it last night, and we came to the conclusion that it’s something that REALLY needs to be done. Something that’s best for both of us, although more so for me… We’re buying a new mattress. What did you think I was ... More About: Night , The Boy , Sleep , Good , Good Night
Sorry! Wrong Number!
2008-04-13 05:57:00 Hubby has been getting the WEIRDEST phone calls for the past three days. Twice on Thursday, some Asian lady called him TWICE, telling him that she wanted to meet up with him to go over the paperwork for the house she was buying. Hubby’s all, “Wrong number lady.

Which Way Does The Water Flow?
2008-04-13 00:36:00 My Mom is obsessed with fountains. From outdoor garden fountains to beautiful indoor wall fountains, she either already owns one, or would REALLY love to get one. As of right now, the outdoor garden fountain collection is at four. Indoors, she’s at three, and now she wants a wall fountain. Both Dad and ... More About: Water , Flow
It?s All About The Food.
2008-04-12 00:27:00 I need to figure out what’s for dinner. I hate cooking for one, and on the nights that hubby’s working, expending the energy to just cook something for myself is a bit too much. I have a tendency to cook in bulk, so that I’ve got leftovers for another meal, but eating the ... More About: Food , The Boy
Don?t Call Me Mama.
2008-04-11 06:22:00 Tomorrow is SERIOUSLY going to suck. It’s well after midnight and I JUST GOT HOME. Ugh. I ended up having to shoot the last match tonight. I can’t even remember what time my match started, but I know it ended at almost 11:30. Holy crap. Usually I’m home long before that and IN ... More About: Mama , Call , Pool
¡Quisiera Vacaciones, Por Favor!
2008-04-10 21:23:00 I have always wanted to take an exotic vacation in another country. My Mom and I have talked for years about going to Spain and Portugal, as we’re Portuguese, and we’ve got a lot of family over in Portugal, along with some in Spain, along the Southern-most border. I’ve just found the coolest site that ... More About: Vacaciones , Favor
Little Birdie Goes ?Tweet Tweet!?
2008-04-10 20:33:00 UPS has SERIOUSLY pissed me off, but I’ll save that rant for its own post. *grumble* Not even 2:30 and I’m already home from work. It’s such a gorgeous day today that I didn’t bother taking the Beltway home like I normally do when I get out of work insanely early. Instead, I took ... More About: Work , The Boy , Tweet
Slow Day. REALLY Slow Day.
2008-04-09 21:22:00 Things are very strange here at the ranch. Work has been REALLY weird. Life has been weird. Boss wants me to send out a mass emailing today. It started off with him saying that he wanted the email to say something along the lines of, “Hi! We’re slow! Send us business! We give discount!” ... More About: Ice Hockey , Slow

My Only Sin Is Vanity.
2008-04-07 05:48:00 You know what sucks? Coming home from a nice weekend at your parents, unpacking, putting stuff away, and BREAKING your bathroom vanity. GAH. I went into our master bathroom to put my medication away…somehow, I knocked over the very large seagull that I have sitting on the back half of the vanity. It fell over with a ...

I?ve Got A Case Of The Yawns.
2008-04-06 22:06:00 WordPress keeps telling me that a new version is available and that I really should update now before my website spontaneously combusts. Not happenin’. I upgraded over at Soapworks and I’m not really caring for the admin interface AT ALL. You get used to one thing and when it changes, it just doesn’t work right. ...

Put The Lime In The Coconut.
2008-04-06 04:28:00 Mom and I just got back from a late-evening Sonic run. There’s nothing better than a foot-long chili cheese coney hot dog. Yum. Now we’re all sitting here watching QVC. There’s some kind of garden thing going on, and the dude that’s on is selling these huge peonies. The only thing is, ... More About: Coconut , Weekenders , Lime
Time Off For Good Behaviour.
2008-04-05 22:51:00 Every time I spend the weekend at my parents’ house, my Mom always asks me when we’re going to move to their neighborhood.

There?s A Bright Light Comin? Down?
2008-04-04 04:33:00 My eyes are really starting to get bad. I just had to readjust my monitor’s brightness AGAIN, as I’ve been noticing that I’m having a lot more trouble reading the monitor, especially on sites that are all white. You know, like mine. Heh.

Eat To Live? No, I Live To Eat!
2008-04-03 18:45:00 Oh. MYGAWD. After the lunch I just ate, I’m going to need to swallow a whole fistful of diet pills, because HOLY COW. I just ate a lot of food.

Life With Cats.
2008-04-03 17:25:00 Waking up this morning was HELL. Even though I went to bed earlier than usual, I don’t think I slept much at all. You would’ve thought that the sleeping pill I took on top of all of the pain killers would’ve knocked me out, but NOOOO. Needless to say, I was in a little ... More About: Life , Cats , Work
Karma Can Be A Bugger Sometimes?
2008-04-03 03:32:00 Great Gawd A-Mighty! I just had the holy living crap scared out of me. I was out in the living room, watching the Flyers/Penguins bloodbath that’s going on…it’s the last week of hockey season, damn it.

Come Together.
2008-04-02 19:46:00 Day after day, the internet continues to amaze me. What it boils down to is this… Lisa from Clusterfook (and many other incarnations) has been diagnosed YET AGAIN with cancer. She’s survived ovarian cancer twice. This time, though, it’s spread to some of her organs. When I read the entry where she announced it ...

Warning. Stupidity Ahead.
2008-04-02 16:02:00 I swear. I sometimes wonder how the human race hasn’t killed itself off, just from the sheer amount of stupidity that I see and deal with on a daily basis.
