Somebody's gonna lose a trailer...

It looks like the weather is gonna get nasty here tonight. I suppose I should have taken a nap since The Handsome Devil will be keeping the household awake once the thunder starts. Oh well, at least it's almost Friday.
I'm off to oil the bicycle chain and find a bigger basket since Betty isn't exactly Toto.

HAH

You Are a Pegasus

You are a perfectionist, with an eye for beauty. You know how to live a good life - and you rarely deviate from your good taste. While you aren't outgoing, you have excellent social skills. People both admire you - and feel very comfortable around you.

What Mythological Creature Are You?

No more Sunshine

Ok, back to normal. You'll all be happy to know that I was just outside giving the ungrateful bitches fresh water and fell flat on my ass. (Ok, my back) Veronica stood behind me while Betty pushed. Try to do something nice...

There is a chance

Annie has been on a rampage for the last 3 days. Her new shoes were delivered Friday, but they weren't here. I thought it was A pair, it was 3, but that's beside the point.
The house across the street that had SO much traffic suddenly stopped having visitors, or inhabitants it seems. The guy met me in the driveway tonight with a package that was delivered there by mistake. He said he was waiting for someone to be home, he'd put it inside his house so noone would steal it. He hasn't been there much, and he's moving out, so he wanted to make sure we got said package.
I still have hope the world has not gone to total shit. That guy bringing the package over helps that a bit. He could have tossed it in the trash since he's leaving and the rental signs went up. I've never spoken to him before and I'm pretty sure Annie hasn't either, so it was very nice of him to go to that trouble.

You don't really want to know...

but of course I'm going to tell you anyway. I've spent more time in the restroom than I have in my office today. That in itself is bad enough, but since dinner last night consisted of beer and triple-hot wings, all I can say is it's been a less than stellar morning. Carry on.

Nothing exciting...

I was a good girl and stayed at home last night. Annie's parents are coming to visit today so we needed to do a bit of "parent-proofing." Get the bras off the ceiling fans, beer cans out of the sink, lube off the nightstands, that kinda thing.
I went to the grocery store on the way home and got a rotisserie chicken because I was too lazy to cook. You know the kind, they come in their very own handy-dandy ziploc bag. First thing Annie does is grab a knife and cut the bag open, knowing it reseals. The woman drives me nuts sometimes. After housecleaning we played cards till midnight, big fun at the Wolf house last night I tell ya.

Betty and Veronica

Betty is the blonde of course. Veronica got dumped on Annie's parents doorstep, knocked up. Betty is one of her 11 offspring and she's a pain in the ass. Veronica however, is a sweetheart.

I'm a bit late with thanks

What I'm thankful for....
I have both parents, married to great people who I love much.
I have Lucy, who loves me unconditionally, stupid girl.
I have many friends even tho I'm the bitch from hell.
I have a nephew who is beyond beautiful.
And I have the realization that it could all be taken away in a heartbeat.
So I'm most thankful that I have today to share that with you.

Nephew

I need to spend more time visiting little sis and nephew. I got there early Thursday so I could spend time with him. He's 5 months, I took a Popeye dvd, as much for him as for me since I haven't seen these in years. He lost interest, but he was so adorable I forgave him. Ya'll have to understand, I don't really like kids, but I'm in love with this one. His smile melted my cold old heart, and he smiled at me much because I was being stupid and making car noises at him. I've become ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE. I'll try to refrain from bringing him up too often since it changes the tone of the blog, I mean I can't be the pottymouth you're used to if he's here.

Worthless

Lucy went shopping with her sister this morning while I slept. She's a better woman than I. She came back and we both slept, then went to dinner and darts with The Princess. I'm all ready to go back to sleep. We have to get up tomorrow and go to lunch at Dad's. Guess I'll make her watch Dexter with me for cheap thrills and pass out. Have a good night kids.

Happy Turkey Day

Hope everyone had a good day. I'm miserable, and I didn't even realize until I was on my way home that I got ripped off. Mom asked me if I wanted banana pudding or chocolate pie, I told her to surprise me. She did, I got neither. Hmph.

Ground rules for work

This is what I'd like to send out, unfortunately, I end up just saying most of it. No wonder my performance review mentioned working on my people skills.

This is not a joke, while I do have a great sense of humor, I rarely bring it to work.
1. If your computer is not functioning properly, try to tell me what's actually happening rather than saying "It ain't working right."
2. While I'm attempting to find out why "it ain't working right" go play in the street and leave me alone.
3. I am not your friend, I don't care if your husband/boyfriend/girlfriend/kid is in jail/on drugs/abusive/knocked up or all of the above. Go play in the fucking street and leave me alone.
4. I have no desire to spend my breaks/lunch/free time with you. If I did, I'd seek you out. Don't feel the need to come looking for me, see above note about not being your friend.
5. Just leave me alone unless you really, really need me for something. I'm busy blogging, surfing, or actually working.

Somehow I knew...

You Are: 30% Dog, 70% Cat

You and cats have a lot in common. You're both smart and in charge - with a good amount of attitude. However, you do have a very playful side that occasionally comes out!

Are You More Cat or Dog?

Sounds like a plan...

Here is your horoscope
for Wednesday, November 22:

There's a definite 'wild child' energy running through you right now. It's time to gallop off in search of adventure. It's been far too long since you've kicked up your heels. Go ahead and paint the town red.

ETA: I was home by 8:00, so maybe a quarter of the town got painted a pale pink. I'm worthless lately.

Bitch

Lucy and I decided earlier that I've been slack at work. These people used to be afraid to talk to me, lately we have a bunch of newbies that I haven't set straight. I'll be taking care of that tomorrow.
I've been quite busy lately getting the piles of paperwork out of my office that accumulated during the great "need someone to work nights" drought of 06.
Done. Over. MS Bitch is back in town.

Tattoos for Christmas

I can see this one showing up at the family reunion too.

The GR8 TaT2 Maker is a toy tattoo gun for your little budding skin-artist: "Open up your very own pretend play tattoo parlor. This easy-to-use tattoo maker kit includes an electronic tattoo pen and funky stencils. Using soft, safe pulsating action, the tattoo pen creates realistic, washable designs with dramatic effects."

Dora?

Ok, who (I mean who's kid) is getting this for Christmas?

I need to rant

I've watched too much tv tonight, the commercials are killing me.
Cingular, "fewer dropped calls" my ass. Lucy has Cingular, it's a miracle if we can have a 2 minute conversation without her service cutting out.
Charmin, the bears are cute, but do I really need to know that baby bear only needs 3 sheets since Charmin is so absorbent? If bears shit in the woods how in the hell would 3 sheets do them any good? I thought a rabbit was the asswipe of choice for bears.

Football 2

Damn, food was good. I missed hundreds of dollars by a safety, but oh well. Food was good, beer was good, company was good. I'm a happy camper. Home with Annie and Lucy and the kids, brownies in the oven (for them, I don't eat much sugar.) Going to smoke with the dogs. Night kids.

Football

Today is the big college football rivalry around here, Alabama and Auburn. I really give a shit but I'll be going to watch the game at the bar because The Dirty Old Man is making gumbo and red beans and rice. Yum.

Geeeze

Ok, I know I'm not ancient yet, but alas, I am getting older by the minute. I can deal with the gray hair, (even tho I'm still blaming that on little sis, I sprouted a whole new crop during her pregnancy) and I can stand the fact that yes, some parts are further south than they used to be. But dammit, cheese no longer being my friend is completely unacceptable.
Rant over. As you were.

Spoiled Rotten

The Handsome Devil is a lucky dog. He gets the run of the house. The girls are mostly yard dogs. HD has decided he doesn't want to be a yard dog anymore. Annie tried to throw him out this morning, he wouldn't go. I asked him if he wanted to go smoke and we're all good. "Go out" means he's gonna be a yard dog whether he likes it or not. "Let's go smoke" means he'll have company while he does his business and then he'll be allowed back in. And some people think dogs are stupid.

The Dirty Old Man

It occurs to me I haven't introduced you to him, he's a great guy. I've known him forever and he scared the shit outta me for years because I was so shy. Now, we have a great relationship, he's a good friend (even tho he did kick my ass at darts tonight) He's a great cook, and cooks need aprons right? This is what I gave him for his birthday. He loved it.

Some of my favorite caps

The Big Dog one at the top that you can't quite read says "Do I look like a FREAKIN people person?" Yes, I think there's a theme here.

Dinner with the girls

We've started a monthly thing with The Widow and a couple of other ladies where we are going out to dinner. We had a great time tonight at a small, quaint spot The Widow suggested. I'm broadening my horizons since I'm a "dive bar, throw darts" kinda gal. Lucy laughs at me since she's a damn yankee who was a social butterfly when she was in Chicago. I did tell her I draw the line at a red hat dammit. She assured me I'd only get pink since I'm the baby in this bunch. Bitch.
In other news, we did go to my favorite dive and throw darts, and I won, well except for the 2 games Lucy won. The Princess and I beat up on Lucy and Annie a couple of times, so it's all good. Over and out.

I want this

TV

Now I remember why I didn't mind working nights too much. There ain't shit on TV.
Well, not that I was home most nights, but still. I came in at 8 something tonight, nothing worth watching, no Law and Order, no CSI ( the real one, not that NY shit)
I was disappointed. Guess I'll go to sleep, damn, that never happens.
Night kids. (Stay outta my dreams)

Dumb Dog

The Handsome Devil stole part of my dinner tonight. He didn't realize until too late that the part he took was cornbread loaded with jalapenos. Poor guy is gonna be looking for a creek to shit in tomorrow.

Sidenote: Yes, he knows better, but I wasn't in sight. And no, I did not burn myself while cooking it.

Work

I'm bored. I'm working nights this week, and I'm tired of it already. Annie calling wanting me to come hang out with her and The Widow isn't helping.
I thought about taking pictures of the amazing ventilation system we have in here, but I'm too lazy to go get my camera. I'll just let you use your imagination. Our crack maintenance team installed this shit. Here is the procedure.
1) Remove ceiling tile.
2) Take box fan and tie it to anything reasonably stable.
3) Run extension cord down wall through another ceiling tile and plug into nearest outlet.
4) Repeat 3 times.
The guys who supposedly actually know what they're doing haven't been back to finish the real ventilation since they tried to set the place on fire a couple of weeks ago. Might be a good thing.

Weekend recap

Friday. Think I threw darts.
Saturday. Think I had dinner and threw darts.
Sunday. I know I threw darts, badly.
All done, thanks for your time.

Elvis has left the building

My best friend at work left today, never to return (yeah right). She was Annie's best employee, my smoke buddy...damn, gonna miss her. Illegal smoke breaks just won't be the same. Annie and I went out and got drunk.
Funny thing is she is an Elvis FREAK. Her husband looks a lot like him too, but that's beside the point. She was born the year he died, Elvis, not her husband, so I'm just surprised at her obsession. Showing my age too, I've known her since she was a teen, but she's a pretty awesome person. I will miss having her in my life on a daily basis.

Not a bad view

Tarot

Shamelessly stolen from Unacknowledged Genius.

You are The Moon

Hope, expectation, Bright promises.

The Moon is a card of magic and mystery - when prominent you know that nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns relationships. All logic is thrown out the window.

The Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful magic, primal feelings and intuition. You may be going through a time of emotional and mental trial; if you have any past mental problems, you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage. This time however, can also result in great creativity, psychic powers, visions and insight. You can and should trust your intuition.
