We Like Brownies.
2008-03-31 21:48:00 I think it’s high time I did a little linky love post, since I know I’ve picked up a couple of new readers along the way. I also want to address some comments that were left over the weekend…I’ve been lazy, and, well…my ‘puter was BOKE, as my ex used to say, so I ... More About: Stuff , Brownies
Techno-Tard.
2008-03-31 20:17:00 Losing my computer for almost five days left me with more grey hairs than I care to admit, a headache the size of Kentucky, and I wasted way too many damn CD-R’s trying to burn things in an attempt to fix my computer over the weekend. At one point, banging my head against a wall seemed ... More About: Techno
I Hate Mondays.
2008-03-31 19:26:00 Wow. When my “blo-jo” (blogging mojo) up and disappears, it runs away and cowers under the bed. When hubby’s blo-jo disappears… Oops. That’s two different things. Heh. Wordpress 2.5 has been released. FINALLY. I am excited, but I’m not about to install anything on any of my sites until I do a full backup of EVERY. DAMN. ... More About: Work , Hate , Mondays
Line ?Em Up, I?m Ready To Go.
2008-03-30 05:13:00 I can seriously see how alcohol rehabs can be a good thing. I was sitting on the floor of my kitchen late this afternoon, trying to fix the mess that hubby had left when he moved all of the stuff over from the old fridge to the new. He didn’t exactly take his time to ... More About: The Boy , Weekenders , Line , Ready
The Weekend?s Only Just Begun?
2008-03-29 01:04:00 Somehow, I managed to survive the week. The apartment is trashed, my brain is fried, and I am exhausted beyond all belief. Oh, and my browser just crashed. Reason #1290310912 why I love Firefox…RESTORE SESSION. When you’ve got ten to fifteen tabs open at the same time, trying to remember what you had ...

This Week Needs To Be Over. NOW.
2008-03-27 18:20:00 I am walking a tightrope today. I said to K. first thing this morning in an email: You know, when your day starts off with a grumbled “what the fuck EVER” to your co-worker in reference to something your boss just said….it’s not going to be a very good day. It hasn’t been. I’ve ... More About: Work , The Boy , Week
Remind Me To Not Say Anything When I?m Happy?
2008-03-27 03:41:00 Pissed off doesn’t even begin to cover it. And I was so excited over getting a new kitchen, too. What happened? One of the workers turned the power off at the breaker box so they could replace the outlets. WITHOUT TELLING MY HUSBAND. Which means both desktop computers in our home office went down. ...

Pie And Chips?
2008-03-26 14:58:00 Oh. My. GAWD!!! I’m SO EXCITED, to say the least. Hubby called me just before 9 AM as I was navigating my way through the hell that is the parking garage at work.

I Need Some Valium, Please.
2008-03-25 18:27:00 The boss got angry and belligerent with me again today, all because he misspoke. “Customer F was just here and he placed a BIG order!” the boss says to me, all excited. I know who the customer was that the boss was just with, and it most certainly WASN’T Customer F. “Customer F?” “Yeah! Customer F!!” “Don’t you ... More About: Work , The Boy
What I Wouldn?t Give For ONE NIGHT Of Good Sleep?
2008-03-25 15:51:00 I have about had it with our current mattress. Every single joint in my body is aching right now, and my back is a mess. I don’t think I’ve slept right in at least six months, and I blame it all on our crappy mattress. I’m seriously starting to re-think buying another inner-spring mattress. ...

I NEED My Flyers Fix, You Know!
2008-03-24 02:19:00 A few weeks ago, the husband and I made sure that we were home in enough time from one of my pool matches so that we could catch a Colorado Avalanche game on TV. Imagine our annoyance when we found out that it was being carried only on the NHL Network, which we don’t ... More About: Ice Hockey , Flyers
Something Sure Smells Good!
2008-03-24 00:51:00 We use many different methods in our household to make it smell good. We’ve got three cats, and the last thing I want our place to smell like is a litter box. I like changing the different scents that I use around the house…each room had a different scent, depending on the season. Unless ... More About: Stuff , Good
Poor Soul, You Were Just Too High Strung.
2008-03-23 20:23:00 And if anybody can tell me where that title came from, I’ll send you a cookie! Or a surprise. Heh. I can’t exactly say that it’s been a PEACEFUL weekend, because it hasn’t. The neighbors in the next building must’ve had a party or something yesterday, as everything in our master bathroom was rattling and ... More About: Soul , High , Poor
I Can Has Steak, Plz?
2008-03-21 15:48:00 Hallelujah! It’s Friday! AND! It’s payday! Hubby doesn’t know it just yet, but we’re having Chili’s for dinner. I’m in the mood for my usual Cajun Ribeye. I’m salivating just thinking about it! Is it time for lunch yet?! I am pretty much done all of my work for the day. The ... More About: Drink , Work , Stuff , The Boy , Steak
Please, Don?t Eat Me!
2008-03-20 15:28:00 When the first words out of your mouth early in the morning…other than, “Hi, sweetie. See you tonight.”…are “Holy SHIT! OUCH! Fuck! FuckfuckfuckFUCK!”…. You know it’s going to be a bad day. And yes, I do kiss my Mom with my potty mouth, thank you very much. She can be just as ... More About: Stuff
A Dirty Little Secret.
2008-03-20 02:39:00 Here’s a little something that not many people know. When my ex-husband and I were still married, we filed for Chapter 7. Yes, bankruptcy. We were in such dire financial straights, and there was absolutely no way out. This was back when the bankruptcy laws were a lot looser than they ... More About: Dirty , Secret
Sometimes, All I Can Manage Is ?Wow?.
2008-03-18 20:33:00 Right now, I am just…WOW. That’s about all I can manage. What happened? Well, the boss just blindsided me with just how arrogant and conceited he really is, and I have to say, I’m COMPLETELY shocked. The boss has a tendency to correct the way that I speak. Luckily, I have yet to snap ... More About: Work , Manage
Counting Down To The New Kitchen?
2008-03-18 15:32:00 I couldn’t be any more bored at work if I tried. When I say that I have absolutely NOTHING to do, I mean it. Ugh. Can I go home and go back to bed, please? We were slow yesterday, so I took off before 2 o’clock so that hubby and I could get the kitchen ... More About: Kitchen , Work , Stuff , The Boy , Counting
Full Of Fail.
2008-03-17 16:16:00 Yesterday was a day full of FAIL! of EPIC proportions. And if you understand what I just said, you’ve been hanging around the internets WAY TOO LONG. Just like me.

There?s Something Fishy Going On Here?
2008-03-15 23:20:00 Today has kind of sucked. Not complete and total suckage, but just enough to be REALLY annoying. I opened my eyes this morning and the first thing I noticed was that my head hurt. I got up to go to the bathroom and it was fine. I went back to bed and it ... More About: Weekenders , Ice Hockey
My Eyes Are Bleeding.
2008-03-15 07:06:00 I am THISCLOSE to being done with our taxes. I’m just waiting on ING’s website to wake the hell up so I can get the tax forms from them, because I can’t seem to find the copies that I’d printed out last month. I have SUCH a headache.

Our House. In The Middle Of The Street.
2008-03-15 04:28:00 I swear, I’m obsessed with learning all I can about buying a house and getting a mortgage. With the economy as bad as it is right now, it’s a buyer’s market, but said buyers better have damn good credit and significant savings in order to buy a house. It still astounds me, all ...

Brain Dead.
2008-03-15 04:20:00 I’m SO GLAD it’s Friday. Granted, I have so much crap to do this weekend, but as long as I’m NOT at work, it’s all good. Quite frankly, this week was EXHAUSTING, and my brain is running on empty right about now and in serious need of recharging. The dishwasher just finished its cycle. I’m so ...

Not Liking What I See In The Mirror?
2008-03-15 00:58:00 As I get older, I find myself having more and more problems with my skin. I used to be able to slop any kind of cream on my face…now, my skin is so sensitive that I have to be VERY careful with the products that I use. I also find myself breaking out ... More About: Mirror
Warning: Goats Ahead.
2008-03-14 15:47:00 Last night, on my way home from work, I came across something that just made me laugh out loud. Something so unexpected, that I just couldn’t NOT laugh. I almost ran over a pack (a herd?) of goats. Yes, you heard me right. GOATS. In a residential area. Now, I’ve run over just about every animal life ... More About: Stuff , Warning , Goats , Ahead
You Should Always Be Prepared.
2008-03-14 04:38:00 Before my parents packed themselves off to Florida last month, I made sure that they gave me lists with all of their pertinent information, just in case something were to happen while they were traveling.
