I'm all mixed up uh huh!

March 1, 2010

Whew...I feel well rested from our 12 hour road trip yesterday. You know me...I have to share highlights from the road.






We passed by this HUGE place called JR's. Y'all...they sell everything from "Braziers to Chandeliers." They had OVER 25,000 bath towels. They had cigars, they had cigarettes, they had fireworks, oh hell...what didn't they have? I was begging hubby to stop. He wouldn't. He's still sleeping on the couch. Lol...kidding! I thought it was hilarious that one of their (200) signs said "Braziers to Chandeliers!!" I'm guessing they stack it deep and sell it cheap. I'm still a little bitter that he wouldn't stop! Lmao...

I got into an argument with the GPS...bitch is bossy yo! "800 yards turn left!" "Turn left!" "Turn left!" "TURN LEFT!!!" Bitch you said in 800 yards, we've only gonne 200! Shut it!

Mr Man and I have totally different taste in music. Totally. So the radio is usually set on his station when we ride in his truck. Uugh. Lol...Don't get me wrong, I can tolerate his music, hell some of it I love. He can't tolerate my music...at all! Lol...

Ok...here's Mr. Man...


 Wanna take a guess what this big tough looking biker dude's favorite music is??

  
Yup! Motown! He Loves it! I don't mind, I can listen to it. No biggie for me. 

Ok...now me. (This pic is a few years old)

  
Wanna guess what my favorite music is?

  

Lmao...most people freak out when they found out that I love rap. Snoop Dogg is my favorite! Mr Man can only take this kind of music for about 20 minutes before he's done lol.

Anymusic...we found this really cool music station on our way home last night. They were playing all this 70's and 80's "disco" music! Lmao...we were dancing and singing all the way home. Until we lost the signal for the damn station. It was fun while it lasted though.

We got home at about 11:30 last night, unloaded the truck, played with the dogs for a bit then we went to bed. 12 hours on the road took it's toll on us.

Today I got up and went and got us a new printer since ours died last week! We got a Lexmark S605. It's wireless, has a touchscreen, prints on both sides of the page. It's really nice! 



I have a photo project that I'm trying to do and I've been having trouble with how the pictures are printing so I'm gonna work on that tomorrow. 

After picking up the printer I went grocery shopping. Good Lord that place was PACKED!! It took me forever! Hands down...my least favorite "chore" I do.

Came home and started doing some spring cleaning! I've made up a whole list of shit that I want to get done this week. Next week I'm supposed to start going back to school to get my GED so I want to get all of that done before I go back to school.

I know...this entry was all over the place lol. Seems to be my theme these days! Hope you all had a great weekend!

On the Road Again....

February 27, 2010


Since we're going to be on the road most of the day bringing the IL's back home I thought I would leave you with the crazy random thought's that run through my mind throughout the day. (with pictures) Aren't you lucky?? 

When I find a new blog that I like, especially the one's from CCWA. I go back and read every single entry (unless it's like 300 entries!) like it's crack. I mean, does that mean that I'm a blog entry whore too? Does anyone else do that? Tell me I'm not the only one who does!

Don't you hate it when you're reading a new blog and your (obsessivly) reading all their entries and then you come to one that is password protected?? I wanna know what's in there, but you don't want to be rude and say "Hey, I'm a new reader, give up the password yo!" But I must say, I do understand the need for the whole password protected thing! I totally wish blogger had that feature!

So I have something crazy going on with my left arm. My hand goes numb and tingly and I have crazy muscles spasms in my upper arm. The only thing that makes it go away is by raising my left arm like I'm the suck up in the classroom who's trying to get the teacher to pick me. When I told my MIL this she said "That's good that it helps!" I'm like "Yeah...I can't go around with my arm stuck up in the air like a damn idiot." *shakes head*

 
Really...this is what I look like. Well ok, I don't look like the kid. But I do have to sit there with my hand all up in the air like I'm playing teachers pet or something!

For some reason one of my dogs keeps trying to hump the other dog. The other dog then gets all gangsta on her and starts growling like she's Cujo or something! 

 
Not my pug.

   
Also not my pug. But too cute to NOT add.

    
My pug...yeah, not so gangsta now are we?

She's a pug...bitch please! 

They're both girls, they're sisters. 

 
Also my pug.


She's a freak ho! Come on...she even looks like a little perv!! A cute perv but still.
Does anyone else's dogs do this?



What is it with people lately? Am I the only one who has a "personal space" issue? 



Can you not talk to me without getting up in my face? I mean like two inches from my nose? (can you say tic tac?) I mean seriously back the 'eff up, you're fuckin' up my feng shui!

I have to know if other people do this...I will be sitting on the couch watching tv and all of a sudden a "thought" will pop into my head that I just HAVE to put in my blog. So I write notes on notepad so I can remember them. Do any of you sit while you're doing mudane things and write blog entries in your head? No? Ok...I'm weird!

So how many people are loving CCWA as much as me? What a great idea the girls over there had. It's bringing some great bloggers together. I've loved reading the featured bloggers so far! Thanks girls! For a long time I've felt like I didn't have a "home" since the site that I was blogging on closed, and a great friend told me about blogger. I have to say, I've never felt more welcome, more accepted or more loved! So to all of my readers...thank you so much! You don't (no really, you don't) know how much it means to me!

Late this afternoon my Godchild/Neice began messaging me on Blackberry Messenger. First I'd like to say that she and I haven't always had the best of relationships. I've always been the Aunt/Nannie that would jump in her shit when she was giving her mom trouble when she was younger. So today when she started messaging me it made me feel really good that she turned to me for advice.

She has a 5 month old baby and things aren't going so good for her finance right now. She's unhappy but wants to make it work for the sake of their daughter. He's unhappy. Period. He's not even trying to make it work. I tried to be supportive. I tried to tell her that she can try to make it work till the cows come home but unless he's willing to work at it too, then it's never going to work. That she can't be responsible for his happiness. All she can be responsible for is making sure that she and her daughter are happy. God I hope I told her the right things! But I also hope she listens. That she finds her happiness.


Well that's all I have! I guess you should consider yourselves lucky. Just sayin!
