gigglechick had posted this really cool connect four game a week or so ago. i'm totally addicted. i think i've won twice, and tied once. it didn't know we were tied because it thought it was going to win. what a loser game! but i'm addicted. that's just the way it goes. and, if that isn't bad enough, sb thinks that i should be playing yahtzee too. now, how am i supposed to get any work done? … [Read more...]

i belong to two discussion groups, sf-wow and wjg. i don't talk much on either group, unless i have something to say about the topic. when i was looking for work, i asked for help about finding a contact at peta. i got a nasty email back about the fact that i really didn't want to work for them, and didn't i know how horrible they were. no, i didn't do a bit of research about an organization before i asked if anyone had a contact there. come on. anyway, about a month ago, sf-wow decided … [Read more...]

apparently, i needed sleep. i fell asleep by 6:45, yes, 6:45. mom called at 7 something, and i told her i was sleeping. i think i was dreaming when she called, because i was sure we were having a conversation... i just can't remember it. i took daisy out for a quicky at 11:20, and then at 12, fell back asleep. woke up at 4 something (ok, what is going on outside my house at 4 something?), slept until 5:30... got up. i didn't eat dinner, can you believe it? i think daisy ate, breakfast … [Read more...]

i had the most wonderful dinner with missey andrea last night. i, of course, had only one thing on my mind, and so we talked about that. you know, missey andrea really "gets" me. she understands what i'm going through, like she went through it 2 years ago... i'm telling her stuff and she is saying, yep, i know that, yep, i did that... it's so cool. she wants to meet sb. i'm thinking that she might have to wait until the 16th for that. i'm not sure yet, but that might be the case. i've … [Read more...]

have you ever put a peep in the microwave, just to see what would happen. hootie absolutely loves doing this. you get to watch this poor little sugar coated piece of marshmallow expand to like 10 times its size, and then deflate... he then eats the peep. hmmm. to be a 14 year old boy. ok, i have to say it, i've never done this, but i am the one who told him that this would happen. i remember mar being pretty pissed about it. now, of course, i think he does it just to bug her. … [Read more...]

my world champion san jose sabercats are back on the winning track. I got to meet clevan thomas tonight. that was really cool. he will be back to the game next week. apparently, he hurt his big toe in practice two weeks ago, and it's pretty hard to play with a hurt toe. i'm glad he is going to be back. he really is holding up the offence. so word on the street is that i am talking to a new boy. hmmm. just what should i say about this? absolutely nothing. i am not going to jinx myself. … [Read more...]

have you ever had the feeling that someone is judging you for something you said in the heat of an argument? like, you are saying things back and forth, and all of a sudden, open mouth, insert foot? you didn't mean to say it, and didn't really want to say it, but it just slipped out? i think blogging is very simular to that. it is a way to get out thoughts that are bugging you, so you can let them go, and hopefully move on. it works like 98% of the time. unless, in my case the topic was … [Read more...]

i have told you in the past that i am addicted to giggle chick. apparently, i was behind, because she had like 5 new posts over night. any who, in one of her posts was this AWESOME saying. Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. The men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples at the top think something is … [Read more...]

ever think that you wanted to pay less for something than it was priced at? I know I have, especially at nordstrom in the shoe department. for those who are brave enough, there is a company that will help you print out a new bar code on a sticker! we can thank miss anne-a-belle for this story. apparently, being a pregnant woman, 6 days before leaving on maternity leave gives you lots of time to look into how to defraud a retailer! lets all say it together: THANK YOU ANNE! … [Read more...]

i miss my cousin cindy. i think it is time for a road trip. yes, i know her house is a mess. yes, i know that she is trying to move. but, i think it is time for us to get together and get in some trouble. maybe i can convince her that she needs to come down and see deke in may... that's may 16 cindy. put it on your calendar. i'll buy your gas... and if you come down early, i'll buy you your own dress and shoes to wear! come on cindy! when do i get to hang with you? … [Read more...]
