I was wondering why my boobs hurt a couple of days ago, since they never do. Something in my bra that shouldn't be there, and just ouch, ouch, ouch. I was thinking "Holy Hell I've got breast cancer since I haven't had a mammogram and that itchy spot has a lump and OH MY GOD!" Today I couldn't be pried out of bed to go to work, (which may or may not have something to do with too much beer last night, but I digress.) I was having a fabulous dream about stuff, and nonsense, and nevermind. Then I woke up, and went to pee because well, that happens. Hello Mother Nature. Dammit. Ok, I can deal with the what the fuck ever times, and even the mood swings, but my boobs? Leave those puppies alone dammit. Thank you.
We shall return to regularly scheduled service now.

I had a total Zen moment earlier, but I've lost it
So I'll tell you about Uncle Curt instead.
My Great Uncle actually, he and I first met when I was living with Papaw, after Granny died. I was 5 or 6 I guess, that would have been around 1970-71. He showed up for a visit with his Asian girlfriend and they stayed in a tent in the yard. I'd never seen a coffee pot set over a fire with the little round coffee filters in it, I thought it was cool as shit. He was a handsome guy, gray hair but a lot of it, Papaw was bald so I didn't really get that they were brothers. His girlfriend was quite beautiful, long dark hair, young, and very nice. I liked them both. Then they disappeared again.
Fast forward to 1977, Papaw died. Curt showed up at our house, his Mom lived about a mile away so he was staying with her, with a new girlfriend. I still liked him, and I met the new girlfriend and liked her too. She was a "hippie" so I was told, she showed me some chords on my new guitar. I liked that a lot. Stepdad at the time didn't. He was an asshole, but that's another story for another time.
Long, long story short, I was told I couldn't associate with the "hippie" anymore, and Uncle Curt was crazy and couldn't be trusted.
Yeah.
He was my hero for a lot of years because knowing the history of how they grew up? He is the only one that got out and saw the world. He did something rather than staying home, and then he just took off on his own to do and see more. (I should say Papaw and all his brothers served in the military, but they didn't want any more.) Curt did.
I admired him for following his dreams right up until he died. Someone found him on the streets of Seattle and took him to a homeless shelter. He died of pneumonia.
I still think he had the right idea, get out and do dammit. I need to do some of that.

TV viewing
Lucy and I seem to be at odds over this issue. I'll watch CSI anything, Cold Case, doesn't matter how many times I've seen them. She's not so much into that. I'm not much into Reba or Raymond, but I make an effort not to turn the tv when she's watching that shit.
Cold Case tonight was a re-run, and not pretty so I went looking for something else just to keep her level of upsetedness to a minimum and guess what's on? Forrest Gump!
Of course it was the Vietnam part, so I had to change to Will and Grace as soon as10:00 hit. Nothing wrong with that, but still...I wonder sometimes how we get along since we're so, so different. Then I realize I'm lucky and get the hell over it.
Night kids.

I had a phone call
Ideas were thrown around, I asked Lucy a question related to the discussion at hand.
Everything seemed cool until a few hours later when Lucy asked me "Did you used to have a lot of phone and computer sex with "said person?" I peeked over the computer screens and said "How much is a lot?" And she called me a Bitch and told me my testosterone was showing.

I'm not bitching, I just wish it would fucking decide where to be, this shit hurts.

My Cell Phone is possessed
I didn't think much of it a couple of weeks ago when Mom called asking why I called Stepdad's cell. I didn't, I show no record of it, therefore it didn't happen. I did plan to call her that day, but later.
The Grandson called me today. Saw where I'd called this afternoon......I didn't. We proceeded to have a long detailed conversation which is good, but damn.
My phone is pretty much always with me. I know it was on me both times these calls were supposedly made. I think I need a new one.
Oh, nevermind, I forget I already live in the twilight zone.

Personality
Lucy and I have been having an interesting discussion about my personality. I still don't like people, but I'm much more tolerant than I used to be.
Case in point, my new best friend yesterday. I found out in the 5 minutes before she wanted a hug that 2008 sucked ass for her. Her husband left with her 4 dogs and 12 cats, her house was foreclosed on, and her car was repossed. Yep, she had a bad 2008 and she's apparently decided to spend 2009 shitfaced and meeting strangers. You go girl.
Lucy says a few years ago I would have been mortified that she even spoke to me, she's right. I've come a long way baby.
I'm not a horrible person, but really? do I need to know these things? I feel like I've gotten soft. Now just anybody can talk to me? I'm gonna have to dump Lucy, she made me this way. She's already sleeping on the couch, it's close to the door. I'll just shuffle her out later.

Saturday afternoon in my world
I met Annie and The Princess at The Dive early afternoon. He had been out all night, she picked him up to get his car, looks like we'll be doing that again tomorrow.
The bartender gave him money and said she wanted to hear Duran Duran. Yay. He gave me the money and told me what she wanted to hear. I turned it into an 80's afternoon. I also met my new best friend (I have no fucking idea). I told her I left music in the jukebox since she put in some money while we were discussing tunes and I told her we still had music. She wanted a hug. Yeah, I can attact em..
I came home and Lucy drove me to see The Spawn, and family. Spawn was a big wuss and didn't want to play so we just hung out for awhile. The band was good and Babysis and I caught up a bit so all is well.
I'm off to bed. Night kids.

Unsatisfactory
I'm apparently out of sorts. Wherever I am is not where I want to be lately. I realized today I haven't thrown a dart all week, I've been going to The Dive just to get out of the house and ignoring everyone there while I read, and not really wanting to be there either so....
Today I came home and planned to stay here, but no, that didn't work either. I ruled out The Dive because the band was coming in, and they upset my space so I wound up at fridays just to get out of the house.
I played some trivia, The Old Pervert sat next to me. It was ok. He's actually a cool guy, I like him. He doesn't have much use for most people, doesn't feel the need to chat, I got him because his neighbor at the other end of the bar was chatty.
He told me a few years ago he liked me but couldn't figure out why other than I don't take much bullshit, and I never give any out. I took that as a huge compliment so you can see why we get along. After an hour of trivia and a bit of talk with him I came home and now don't know what to do with myself. I'm in the middle of a book, but not in the mood so.... I might actually go to bed an and ungodly hour. Wish me luck.

All the news that's unfit to print
So....Mom had a Dr. appt. Monday, he thinks she and Stepdad got p'nut butter poisoning rather than the plague. That's a nice thought. They're both doing better, still weak, but functional.
Babysis is now the sole owner of Spawn since she and Babydaddy went to court last week. Babydaddy signed away all rights, which is what Babysis wanted since he didn't give a damn, didn't see him, etc. Can't say I blame her on that one.
Lucy has been staying here since she got out of hospital and Hubs moved from the rehab in her town to one here for a bit, it's closer for her and works for me. Annie has been in hog heaven since we've had home cooked meals this week, works for Lucy too so she doesn't have to eat trash every day.
I'm still doing the usual, I go to The Dive and read for a couple of hours after work because it's way too noisy around here. At least there I don't have to talk to anyone.
I think tomorrow may be a home night since the band is playing at The Dive.
Saturday The Spawn is performing with a band a couple of towns away so Lucy and I plan to catch the show. Yes, I'll take pictures, if I remember the fucking camera.
The Grandson and I had a tentative dinner date today (made Sunday while I was sake influenced) he called to say he was busy and that was ok because I don't think we can do anything other than whine to each other, so we'll do that Saturday. That's a whole other post for another day.

My favorite color
You Are a Green Crayon |
 Your world is colored in harmonious, peaceful, natural colors. While some may associate green with money, you are one of the least materialistic people around. Comfort is important to you. You like to feel as relaxed as possible - and you try to make others feel at ease. You're very happy with who you are, and it certainly shows! Your color wheel opposite is red. Every time you feel grounded, a red person does their best to shake you. |

Who the hell makes wine from rice?
Yeah. Last night I wound up at the Japanese place with the cool kids drinking sake. Not my best choice of the day. I then talked to The Grandson about The Woman and other things because I was not a happy camper and I was probably stupid again.
Lucy and I went to Dad's Saturday where he had our outside fire burning and things were cool. For 5 minutes. The Woman called, she wanted to come over, Dad let her.
I'm not sure who I'm more pissed off at, him for letting her invade our time or her for doing it. She came in and acted like she owned the place, and him, and well I wound up being a bundle of nerves all weekend. Not pretty.
I said I wouldn't go back if she was going to be there, now it feels like a turf war, so yeah, I will.
I'm going to box and take my ass to bed. Night kids.
Just to clarify....I didn't say anything to Dad or The Woman, I was perfectly nice, I just wasn't happy.

Mom Wolf's house has the Plague
We wanted to go there, but she had it Friday, Stepdad is still stricken. Dammit, that keeps us away from The Spawn, Lucy is recovering from worse, and I don't want that shit on a good day.

History
I was out smoking earlier so The Handsome Devil would actually get his ass into the yard, he's such a pussy.
Standing under the pecan tree.....I need to fill Lucy in on some of that history.
My cats were indoor critters, but I let them out. One of my favorite pictures of Scratch is him standing on this limb which is halfway missing now,time and weather took it's toll on his favorite perch. That limb is the one Teebo was on when I told him I'd catch him if he jumped, he did, I missed. He didn't speak to me for days.
The tree is probably older than me and falling apart even faster, but it was their favorite playground, when they weren't playing me, one would distract me while the other escaped. I miss those guys, I need new kitties but not right now.

Lucy was sprung
She got out a few hours ago and showed up here to dye her hair. She stinks and my aneurism from earlier in the evening is not amused.
We are off to Dad's tomorrow.
Later kids.

Lucy is acting up now
Lucy is in the hospital with pancreatitis. Dr. didn't stop by this evening to tell her if the tests said it was her gallbladder or not, so wait till tomorrow. Her blood sugar is crazy so it could be anything. Since her diet lately has pretty much consisted of fast food, sandwiches and chocolate, who knows? It doesn't do me any good to bitch so I just don't.
That may have to change. Later kids.

Sleep and I finally found each other
Sleep didn't want to let go so I headed to work around lunchtime. Annie did wake me up, but oh well, the couch had a stronger pull this morning.
So, I went to the store for smokes before heading the other direction to go to work. Smokes and a Diet Sundrop, guy tried to give me too much change, rectified that and off I went. Down the road I opened the soda and it smelled funny so I did what any normal person would do and took a sip. OMGWTF, it was rancid. I stopped at the next store to get a new one because I really needed that taste out of my mouth before I threw up.....and couldn't find my smokes. Fuck. Turned around, went back to the original store assuming I'd left cigarettes on the counter during the change mess, explained the situation, got 2 more packs, walked back to the car and saw the original smokes under the passenger seat. Fuck again. Walked back in and gave back the replacements since they weren't and finally got my ass on the road and arrived at work. It pretty much went downhill from there.

Sleep, where art thou?
So I read a bit, I've wii-ed a lot. I'm wide awake dammit. I hate this, I'll be dead in the morning. I think I'll hit the couch in the hopes that Annie or The Handsome Devil will wake me at an opportune hour. I think I may be fucked at that. Anybody got "stop my dreams" pills?
So I thought, ok, couch it is.

Stuff and gossip and more stuff
Annie has given me a few silk undergarments to help keep me warm since I freeze all the time anyway. I was looking for them tonight since it's gonna be fucking frigid here the next few days and they seem to be missing. I realize I'm absent-minded, but I know I washed a couple and left them in my room. I blame Lucy. I guess she thinks anything silk is hers. We'll be having a chat later.
I came home from The Dive and told Annie about stuff I heard (mostly gossip, but not really since the source was one involved.) I went to pee and came out telling her she couldn't spread it around since it wasn't a done deal.....she was on the phone. I'll learn.
I'd box but I just finished off the B*jangle's chicken strips from the other night so I'm miserable.
One of the bags of books Annie brought home was Lee Child (Misc. titles) pretty much all of the Reacher series, I'm liking them, I'm on the 3rd with quite a few to go. I think I'll go read for a bit.

Well that ain't right
I haven't really felt well all day, lack of sleep had something to do with it I'm sure, but anyway. I went to The Dive after work to read because Annie seemed to want me out of the house and that's usually pretty ok. Mr. B. showed up and we threw a couple of games of darts, chatted, got all caught up on everything so that's cool. I suddenly developed a stomach ailment and really needed to come home so I paid up as soon as he left and brought my ass home.
I missed my phone a bit ago. I never leave that anywhere, but the bartender at The Dive finally answered while I was calling around looking for it. Geeeze. Drove back over to pick it up and home again. I checked missed calls and all that and The Grandson had called me at 7:30. Yes I was home that early.
Apparently Dad isn't acting right so I guess it's a good thing he and I have a date next weekend. I haven't been out there to stay in awhile because of the holidays and other stuff so I'd already made plans to catch up next weekend. We'll see how it goes.
I have a couple of chapters left in this book and then I'm taking my ass to bed. Night kids.

Forrest Gump
It's sappy but it dragged me away from my book dammit.
I didnt't work Friday beause Lucy was here, she was warm, bed was comfy, so I decided to stay home. We had a good day/night together so it was all good.
Saturday The Princess' roommate was having a birthday party. We went there under duress because she's not anyone's favorite person. Lucy made me promise to be nice so... we came home relatively early.
I'm off to wii box and then take my ass to bed. Night kids.

It's tomorrow and I'm awake so.....Part 2
I told Annie last week about rats in the yard, the water seems to drive them here for some reason. They seem to think we run a hostel, I guess they can't read the sign outside that says "No Vacancy".
She put poison in the shed and the crawlspace under the house (because I'm a big pussy and won't go under there, spiders live there). Anywhooo.
Today was Monday for the third time, I dragged her out for a drink after work because I needed it this time.
Home, I dragged out the shit I washed last night/this morning, reloaded dishwasher and started looking in the cabinet where the drawer was, next to the dishwasher, expecting a hole next to the drainage pipe. Nope.
At least the poison is working, but damn, it's too slow. I bagged the body, wearing gloves, but couldn't touch it so I used a pair of my favorite grilling tongs (dammit, now I have to go to wal-hell) and put chicken wire over the hole the bastards chewed in the wall to get in. It wasn't the Rat King, it was a minion. Fuck.
I think I'll crash on the couch again just because. I haven't had Skeevees in a long time, lack of sleep may be getting me. Night kids.

I was a good girl yesterday
I came home from work and stayed home. I had to buy the Jeep water wings since it was so nasty, I had beer and smokes, Annie was going to the gym, so I stayed in and re-read Breaking Dawn since I flew thru it the first time. Actually caught a few things I missed first time around. All was cool till 1am when I decided I'd have one more beer, read another chapter or two and go to bed.
I got to the kitchen and the Rat King was sitting on my counter. I screamed like a girl but he was the only one who heard me. (The Handsome Devil was 20 feet away, snoring, Annie was in bed a bit further away probably doing the same thing, so I know who not to count on in an emergency.) The silverware drawer was partially open, guess where the fucker went? Yeah, apparently where he came from in the first place, it's right next to the dishwasher.
I'll save you details, but I threw the drawer into the sink, armed with my trusty whiskbroom which was the only thing close at hand. Thankfully no rat. I was a whirlwind of activity for a bit and then came back to read, watching my back the entire time. I was too skeeved out to go to bed so I finished the book and hit the couch fully clothed at 3 thinking SOMEONE would wake me up early this morning since they both had an early night. Didn't happen but at least I made it to work on time.
Part 2 tomorrow.

The silverware drawer was partially open, guess where the fucker went? Yeah, apparently where he came from in the first place, it's right next to the dishwasher.
I'll save you details, but I threw the drawer into the sink, armed with my trusty whiskbroom which was the only thing close at hand. Thankfully no rat. I was a whirlwind of activity for a bit and then came back to read, watching my back the entire time. I was too skeeved out to go to bed so I finished the book and hit the couch fully clothed at 3 thinking SOMEONE would wake me up early this morning since they both had an early night. Didn't happen but at least I made it to work on time.
Part 2 tomorrow.

Stupid Busy
It was a pretty shitty day. I was busy which is good, but most of it was because of stupidity and Stupid wasn't there. Annie did have it worse than me so I feel for her. She had to do the Retiree's job amidst our boss cleaning out the office and moving shit. It really sucked to be her today. We were supposed to go to visitation for a former employee but neither one of us managed lunch much less leaving for a couple of hours so oh well.
After work we went to see our favorite bartender at his Monday job and took advantage of all you can eat prime rib. Annie took advantage of his great margaritas and the fact that he's a fun guy, we both felt much better after that.
I finished the book I was reading, debating starting another but I need to get up early tomorrow so I can get a jump on more stupidity. We'll see.
Later kids.

I got Toasted and lost a gas cap
I saw people at The Dive when I went out to read and one of them bought me a shot and I was toasted. Apparently I'm hard to get to know, but pretty ok once you get there. Well yay me. I could have told you that without the shot.
I headed home and had to buy gas because the Jeep was thirsty. I've tried to buy gas a couple of times lately just because I had $8.51 on that unemployment card I got from Thanksgiving week when I actually filed a partial so I've been trying to spend it. Gas pumps didn't seem to like it so I gave up and bought beer with it today. I'll be damned if the government keeps my 8 bucks.
The bitch is, I apparently lost my cap somewhere along the way when I stopped and didn't actually buy anything.
This pisses me off because I've been driving for 27 years, I've lost more gas caps in the last 5 than I ever did in my life. Dumbass. So, I have to go to a parts store and pay around 7 bucks for a generic gas cap now and it chaps my ass.
Night kids.

No, She Din't
Lucy: You made me sound menopausal.
Me: No, honey someone else said that.
Lucy: You blogged about me hitting you and it caused it.
Me: So?
Lucy: I don't want to be called that by other women who are.
Me: And?
Lucy: Just fix it dammit.
Addendum: She's apparently just lost her hearing and short term memory. We'll be back with later results. And she's planning to kick my ass. I may be couch surfing soon.
I'm sure I'll rot in hell for this one, thanks Anonymous:)

Lucy stabbed me.
In the head. With an ink pen.
Apparently I was paying too much attention to Star Trek Voyager last night so a pen came flying across the table at me. She's lucky she didn't put my eye out.
