Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain!

Just Window Shopping


Went shopping at lunch and saw a blind man in the department store -- who proceeded to take his dog by the tail and swung him around in a circle. One of the clerks rushed up to him: "Can I help you, sir?""Oh, no thank you. I am just taking a look around."

Yes!!!!


***You Are Smokin' Hot*** (One more quiz....sorry! LOL)
You're a terrible flirt, a sharp dresser, and a party animal.Of course, you're totally sizzling too. And for you, being hot just comes naturally.
Are You Hot?http://blogthings.com/areyouhotquiz/

Where's my mind?????????????


My mind is kinda blank today....I must find that aluminum beanie again to draw the creative juices into my brain..........In the meantime, I'm looking forward to Happy Dance Friday (altho I've been practicing robotic type dancing while sitting down) (my ankle, remember?).

Cabbing It Pt III


Yes, I'm still cabbing it...(my ankle, remember?) I'm really not beating this one to death because I just found out that I really did fracture it! Soooo here we go.....slow recuperation, slow walking, slow living......etc..(slow is good in some cases tho i might add) ...(I 'm really rather depressed by the whole thing by the way) Anyway I digress......the cab: got one right away going home. Hop in the back and smell food!! Smells good too! I told the cabbie that I could smell his food...and he thought I was offended by it...(i guess my delivery was not to his ethnicity, lol) I had to explain to him that NO NO NO I mean it smells nice...i like the smell....(meanwhile going hysterical inside). He apoligized and told me he hadn't eaten all day so he just had to get something...and when he finally figured it out that I was not offended by the aroma, he offered to stop and get me one (he had s shish kaboobie thingy)...I thanked him and declined graciously.

I hate sex in the movies.
Tried it once. The seat folded up, the drink spilled and that ice, well, it really chilled the mood.

From Silly to Insane

I'm in a particularly silly mood today.....so I tuned into a radio station that I normally don't listen to and thought that the dialogue was hilarious today....belly laughed all the way to the train station. I'm not telling what they were making fun of...because then you'll think I'm really evil!

Then I got to work.....geeze.....can't be silly here...at least for the most part...there's only certain people who actually "get" what I'm saying ....I mean all the inuendos that come out of my mouth may offend lots of people....(even tho I think I'm pretty funny)..........I do have to watch myself...(I sit here and snicker....he he he).

Welcome Monday (NOT)


No Happy Dance for Mondays....After all I'm at work, mind you, NOT on a beach, NOT out sailing the ocean, NOT laying by poolside while my pool boy eagerly serves up drinks with lil umbrellas with a smile on his face, a song in his heart and errr.....oh nevermind! LOL.......

It's a picture perfect day for doing all of the above, yet here I sit, at my puter while my mind drifts and yearns.....for my paradise......for sun and water on my body .............the smell of coconut lotion....the seagulls honking overhead.......the salty spray of the waves washing over me......as I dig an impression into the sand.......and settle there..........exhaling..........

Ice Cream Scary



Ok...Laugh's got me on the quiz thing again.....Here's my results of the "What Flavor Ice Cream Are You?" quiz...and ya know something, coffee ice cream is one of my favs!

***You Are Coffee Ice Cream***
Energetic and lively, you are always on the go.You're doing a million things at once and doing them well.You tend to motivate others and raise spirits.
You are most compatible with chocolate ice cream.

SHADDUP....


I have a dog with a smushed in nose.....(yes he was born that way).... and when I take him for a walk he has tendency to make all sorts of snorting noises...(he's soo embarrassing, lol)....But I'm getting a little tired of people coming up to me and commenting about it....."He sounds like he's out of breath" (no he just breaths that way!)..."Does he have a cold?" (no he just breaths that way!)....."How OLD is HE?" (only 5)......"What's the matter with HIM?" (nothing)....."You should give him some water" (and you should shut the fuck up!).... Oh well...i guess he's just that type of pup only a mother could love......! HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!

Morning After


Opps ..I forgot to do the Happy Dance Friday!!! Well Happy Dance Saturday instead! (still can't fully do the dance tho, remember my ankel? lol)..

Spent last night ducking rain, hail, thunder lightening....(not really ducking , acutally getting soaked (remember my ankle?)- can't move too fast. Had to hop on over to the mall, just because.

Well the beach is out today...cloudy, rainy day. Usually makes my mood cloudy too. But not today! I'm in a particurly good mood today and that's a good thing!!!!!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!

Friday, July 21, 2006

Oh My

Here are six reasons why you should think before you speak -
the last one is great!
Have you ever spoken and wished that you could
immediately take the words back...
or that you could crawl into a hole?
Here are the Testimonials of a few people who did....
FIRST TESTIMONY:
I walked into a hair salon with my husband and three kids in tow
and asked loudly,
"How much do you charge for a shampoo and a blow job?"
I turned around and walked back out and never went back
My husband didn't say a word...
he knew better.
SECOND TESTIMONY:
I was at the golf store comparing different kinds of golf balls.
I was unhappy with the women's type I had been using.
After browsing for several minutes,
I was approached by one of the good-looking gentlemen
who works at the store. He asked if he could help me.
Without thinking, I looked at him and said,
"I think I like playing with men's balls."
THIRD TESTIMONY:
My sister and I were at the mall and
passed by a store that sold a
variety of candy and nuts.
As we were looking at the display case,
the boy behind the counter asked if we needed any help.
I replied, "No, I'm just looking at your nuts."
My sister started to laugh hysterically.
The boy grinned, and I turned beet-red and walked away.
To this day,
my sister has never let me forget.
FOURTH TESTIMONY:
While in line at the bank one afternoon,
my toddler decided to release
some pent-up energy and ran amok.
I was finally able to grab hold of
her after receiving looks of disgust
and annoyance from other patrons.
I told her that if she did not start behaving
"right now" she would be punished.
To my horror, she looked me in the eye and said in a
voice just as threatening,
"If you don't let me go right now,
I will tell Grandma that I saw you
kissing Daddy's pee-pee last night!"
The silence was deafening after this enlightening exchange.
Even the tellers stopped
what they were doing.
I mustered up the last of my dignity and
walked out of the bank with my daughter in tow.
The last thing I heard when
the door closed behind me,
were screams of laughter.
FIFTH TESTIMONY:
Have you ever asked your child a question too many times?
My three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training
and I was on him constantly.
One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch
in between errands.
It was very busy, with a full dining room.
While enjoying my taco,
I smelled something funny, so of course I checked
my seven-month-old daughter, she was clean.
Then realized that Danny had not asked to go potty in a while.
I asked him if he needed to go, and he said "No".
I kept thinking "Oh Lord, that child has had an
accident, and I don't have any clothes with me." Then I said,
"Danny, are you SURE you didn't have an accident?"
"No," he replied. I just KNEW that he must have had an accident,
because the smell was getting worse. Soooooo, I asked one more time,
"Danny, did you have an accident?" This time he jumped up, yanked down his pants,
bent over, spread his cheeks and yelled
"SEE MOM, IT'S JUST FARTS!!"
While 30 people nearly choked to death on their tacos laughing,
he calmly pulled up his pants and sat down
An old couple made me feel better, thanking me for the best laugh they'd ever had!
LAST BUT NOT LEAST TESTIMONY:
This had most of the state of Michigan laughing for 2 days
and a very embarrassed female news anchor who will,
in the future, likely think before she speaks.
What happens when you predict snow but don't get any!
We had a female news anchor that,
the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn't,
turned to the weatherman and asked:
"So Bob, where's that 8 inches you promised me last night?"
Not only did HE have to leave the set,
but half the crew did too they were laughing so hard!
Now, didn't that feel good?
Pass it on to someone you know who needs a laugh
and remember
we all say things we don't really mean,
so think before you speak

Cabbing It Pt.II


I climb up out of the train station……step off the curb…getting into the “Hail the cab” stance ..arm outstretched….waving down every cab that passes me by………when…this asshole steps in front of me….ignoring me….and starts hailing….geeze, I think: this is no different than pushing and shoving on a train…yet more subtle…..so…I walk over and stand in front of her!!!!! That’ll teach her. Hmmmm…..I’m also thinking that I can’t afford to get into a cab fight..(ya know my ankle?) , but I do it anyway. In the meantime a lil old later steps on the scene…(where’d she come from?) and starts hailing…….a cab finally stops….and the lil old lady said I could have the cab!!!! Awww it broke my heart…..(but didn’t stop me from taking the cab , he he he)……What????? I’m disabled!!!

This cabbie had my favorite FM station on the radio…Q104.3!!! Yeah! First time I got into a cab that played my kind of music…..So I thanked him when I got out….He told me he was a musician….and I think he wanted to talk more about it…but I just didn’t have the time….when I stepped out of the cab, I was a lil startled because there was a man standing right there!!!! In my face!!! And gorgeous, to boot! He smiled. I smiled. I looked directly into his eyes…as if saying I’ll stay in the cab and take a ride with you ok? (oh well….back to reality!) bye bye blue eyes!!!!

Cabbing it!


Ya know there's a blog called the New York Hack that I read. It's all about a female cab driver's experiences on the road in NYC. Well....since I hurt my ankle, I've been cabbing it back and forth to the train and my office each day. I'd like to share the other side of the New York Hack experience, sitting in the back...

Day One....Hailed a cab....(actually you can get killed hailing a cab in NY in the morning as much as you can get killed by someone driving one). Tell the driver where I want to go. Mind you, this is one of the hottest days on record in NY. So...I small talk..saying Boy..it's gonna be a hot one today (why is it that weather is what one always talks about)...why can't people feel comfortable saying something like" Geeze you're good looking!!!" or "Gawd that's an ugly shirt your wearing...." but anyway...the cabbie just grunts at me and says yeah....of course I don't leave it alone and ask..How's the a/c work in here? Is it going to keep you cool all day long??? He says..probably not.....I see he's doing paper work while we're driving! hmmm.....No wonder why he doesn't want to talk...he's writing, driving, listening to some god awful station on the radio, guess he can't do all these things AND talk to his passengers all at the same time....I mean..really!

On the way home....Since I get to leave early (my leg, remember?) I don't have too much trouble in the hailing of the cab. The cab pulls over.....and signals with his hands as if asking if I'm going in a certain direction...I told him yes i'm going south...he waves me in.....now if i'm not mistaken....I don't think he can turn down a passenger.....but anyway....that's a story for another day.....so I get in and of course I say something about it being really hot outside and ask him if he's staying cool....he just puts on a great big smile...and nods his head....I ask if he's been drinking lots of water today? He just smiles...nods his head. After my third attempt at questioning...I've come to the realization that he has absolutely no idea what I'm saying...he doesn't speak English....I guess they go to taxi school to understand the names and numbers of streets????????

Evil Lil Me

I Will Survive...remix
Sing to the Tune "I will Survive"


At first I was afraid, I was petrified,
When you said you had 10 inches,Lord I almost died!
But I'd spent so many years just waiting for a man that long,
That I grew strong,and I knew that I could take you on....

But there you are, another lie,
I was ready for a big mac and you've bought me a French fry!
I should have known that it was bullshit, just a sad pathetic dream,
Should have known there was no anaconda lurking in those baggy jeans!
Go on now go walk out the door,
Don't you promise me 10 inches,then turn up with only 4!
Weren't you a brat to think I wouldn't catch you out!?
Don't you know we're only joking when we say size doesn'tcount?!

(Chorus)
I will survive!'
Cuz as long as I have batteries,
My sex life is gonna thrive!
I will survive!I will survive!. . .
Hey! Hey!

[Verse II]
It took all my self control not to laugh out loud,
When I saw your little wiener standing tall and proud!
But to hell with all your egos and to hell with all your needs
Now I'm saving all my lovin'for a cordless multispeed!

(Chorus)
I will survive!'
Cuz as long as I have batteries,
My sex life is gonna thrive!
I will survive!I will survive!. . .

return


Ok...back at work today after being off for a week...(not with fun stuff) Remember? My ankle? Just my luck to return on the hottest day of the year! My gratitude list for today will include air conditioning. (At least I can come in late and leave early (per my Medical Department) which is nice...at least I don't have to deal with rush hour. I can't rush ya know....lol. I'm sitting here with my ankle up on a chair....(good thing I don't have a skirt on) I'll have to remember that for the rest of week while picking out my wardrobe.

Have a great day...Be back later when my brain turns on.

keeping it up


Not doing the Happy Dance Friday this week...Can't dance....;-( Can hardly walk....
There's good and bad here...I spent the week home and out of work (yeah) but was of course bored because I couldn't do anything except keep my foot up. Now there's a lot to write about! I put it up on the edge of the bed once...then I laid on the couch and put it up there! Sat at the kitchen table and put it up on the other chair (tsk, tsk). Sat at my computer desk and put a lil hassock under it so I could put it up there! Was a lil difficult taking a shower, so I took a bath so i put it up there! (mmmm, there's one place I didn't put it...and that will be a story for another forum) LMAO......Have a great day!!!!

Humor is our way of defending ourselves from life's absurdities by thinking absurdly about them.
Lewis Mumford (1895 - 1990)

Comedy is simply a funny way of being serious.
Peter Ustinov (1921 - 2004)

Humor is also a way of saying something serious.
T. S. Eliot (1888 - 1965)

There's no trick to being a humorist when you have the whole government working for you.
Will Rogers (1879 - 1935)

I deal with my life's situations with humor. If I didn't I'd most likely be in a rubber room somewhere by now. If I can't laugh about something I'm in trouble. Mind you, I do take some things seriously...but at my age I can afford to laugh at life and I DO!

Take for instance, I fell down the stairs on Sunday...sprained my ankle. I'm not able to work this week......I'm not able to do a lot this week.....My take on this is the confirmation that A) I'm a klutz....B) One should wake up first before taking a dog for a walk.....
It was 5Am! I didn't want to wake up because I wanted to crawl back into bed when I came in. I guess the universe had other plans. When I fell...I woke up!!!!! Every cell in my body woke up!
I recommend coffee instead......

Have a great day!

love test


I took this test..

http://naucon.net/misc/tests/love_test01.htm

Here's my results.....

1. You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.
2. In the process of courtship, the approach that would make you feel irresistable is creative, never let you feel bored.
3. The impression you would like to give to your lover is loyal, faithful, never change.
4. You don't like it when your partner is emotional and/or too moody; and you don't know how to please him/her.
5. The kind of relationship you would like to build with your partner is one that you care not only about the present but also the future with your partner, a long-lasting relationship that you can grow with.
6. You care about the society and morality, you won't do anything wrong after marriage.
7. You are afraid of marriage, you think it would take away your freedom.
8. At this moment, you don't want to be tied down by a steady relationship, you just want to flirt around.

duh


There was an explosion in a town house in NYC yesterday. A doctor blew it up. They claim it was attempted suicide due to a nasty divorce and the settlement money from sale of this townhouse. The doctor typed a 23 page psuedo suicide note and emailed to some people prior to blowing up this place. He was the only one in the house at the time (at least he had a lil part of his brain working at the time). He survived, but with burns over 70 percent of his body.

I mean, I don't know the whole story behind this....but please give me a break! Here's someone who's a doctor, lives in a 5plus million dollar townhouse, has the world by the balls....at least that's what one would think wouldn't ya? and he goes a blows up the place along with himself???? Boy, am I glad I wasn't his patient.....He's the one who needed a doctor! And I thought I was having a bad day yesterday!

Happy Dance Friday Again


Oh wow...it's happy dance Friday already!!!! I just sat down to post because I've been a lil busy today.....(geeze, work, it interferes with my musings here).

Well anyway, I'm in a somewhat pissy mood today because I keep getting interupted which got me thinking about a pet peeve list..........as in:

" Don't ya just hate it when":

- You're on the telephone and someone walks into your office and just starts talking?
- You receive something at work that needs to be done right now when the person had it sitting on their desks for 3 months?
- Large persons try to squeeze into the seat next to you on the subway?
- The phone rings after a certain hour?
- When you walk into spider webs at 5:30 Am?
- Mercedes Benz(es) and Jaguars think they own the rode? (it never fails).
- You get Coke instead of Pepsi?
- I have a hypenated name....and it gets me when people ask me what's a hyphen or think that "hypen" is part of my name.
- When cashier's in stores can't count your change if the cash register goes down.
- People on cell phones in public
- Reading blackberries during meetings
- Drivers who don't use their turn signals (mostly men) (and they say women can't drive!)
- Drivers who honk at you the nano second the light turns green
To be continued......
(gotta go back to work now)

From a small American company doing business in France......;-)

Rainbows and mood swings


If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.
~Dolly Parton~ I'm not much of a Dolly Parton fan .....but I must give credit where credit is due being that I did like this quote....

Ya know I've gone thru menopause. I know that's a shock but yes I have. And I just don't understand something. Everything I read about it is bad. I mean they talk about the hot flashes, the night sweats, the mood swings, the weight gain, the decreased sex drive, the dimishment of calcium in the bones....yada yada yada........and yes, I've gone thru some of them....but all in all this is the best period of my life. I've crossed a threshhold, I suppose, and it doesn't matter what people think about me anymore. I've come into my own so to speak where I have a say about what direction my life is going and there's no holding me back. I believe that menopause has brought me to this moment. I did experience severe mood swings and went into a mild depression at first.... altho life itself was spireling down around me at the same time which didn't help. I left my husband, changed jobs, lost weight, dyed my hair, bought a new car.....just like going thru puberty in reverse lol.........yes I do get hot flashes (right at the most inopportune time) I get night sweats...(they don't bother me)......I exercise so i hope my bone loss is kept to a minimum....I've lost weight.....and my sex drive has actually risen!!!!!!! So all in all this menopause thing has not lived up to it's reputation and I'm sure glad it hasn't. Have a great day!

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww


Well...I got to sleep at a decent hour last night....no fireworks til the wee hours of the morning like last year.....woke up refreshed and ready to go! Got my coffee and got the dog ready to go out for a walk.....opened the gate outside and walked right into a giant spider web....yup..right in my face...........ewwwwwwwwwwwww!!! I hate when that happens......lol...I looked like a fool trying to brush the god awful thing out of my hair...and I'm poking and waving all over my body just in case that giant spider is crawling around somewhere. Mind you , I'm not afraid of spiders, I try not to kill them either (they're good for the garden, they eat other bugs) .....but when they invade my space (meaning my hair and body) they better watch their lil asses! Oh well...time to get to work.....HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!!

Tuesday, July 04, 2006


Ok...I just had five days off from work......was wonderful......went to see some old friends ..nice; went shopping at the outlets..costly;
Went to a bbq...ate loads.;.......went to the beach one day for a few hours...very hot; now I am dreading tonight...although I love fireworks and probably will be able to view them too....I want to get to sleep at a decent hour! But I know the boom boom booms will be going off till all hours of the morning..........(I should have taken tomorrow off too!)

Another Friday!


Happy Dance Friday!!!

I'm off today from work...took Monday off too! Yippee!
Last night was a lil stormy around here...got some hail storms...it was wild! I feel so bad for those who have been flooded out and there's a lot of that going on all around this area.

I'm not sure what's up for the weekend. I have one bbq to go to. Other than that I think I'll just chill....I'm always so tired by the time Friday comes......aww poor me! lol.

Hope y'all have a great weekend!!!!

Psycho Boy


I met a guy over the weekend.......and today he called me a cunt! That's not a good thing! and i told him so....and also told him that people who must use that word in a sentence have serious problems and probably should not be looking for relationships with other human beings. I won';t be talking to him anymore! I just knew something was amiss when I first started talking to him too.. My instincts told me. I should listen more often to them.

Come Sun


Sun's gone again...damn!!
Singing: "sun, sun, sun here we come"....."sunshine on my shoulder makes me happy"

I'm working on my Gratitude 101 list...thanks to "Myheadhurts" list which reminded me that I'd like to do that!

I'm at work now...trying to get my rear in gear and it's just now working...and I have no thoughts that want to be in this blog right now. (I do have thoughts tho, just not for sharing, lol).

Sun/Mom


I need the sun......it lifts my spirits......my spirit needs lifting......hurry back sun.

My Mom is in a nursing home....she has Alzheimer's disease. She fell two weeks ago and broke her arm. I got a call yesterday that she fell again. She's ok.. Seems she tries to get out of her bed and falls over the guards they have on each side. You've got to understand that my Mom is a funny woman. She's a happy go lucky older person with alzheimers. She sings and laughs and is like a five year old child. She's actually quite entertaining. Altho it breaks my heart that she is ridden with this disease and for all intents and purposes I've lost the mother i've known all my life, I'm happy that she is happy! Getting back to the phone call...I made the suggestion to the social worker that maybe, she may need a lower bed. I mean aren't they the ones in the business and should maybe consider that there is something wrong with this picture and take some corrective action so maybe, just maybe she won't fall out of bed again. Well...I got them to give her a lower bed. Hopefully she won't be falling anymore, at least out of bed. Bless ya Mom!

snot dog


I have a lil dog...with no snoot....who snots and sneezes right in my face...all the time....I love the lil guy....he's soooo cute.......can't help it...he snores all night and it doesn't bother me....he doesn't pee in the house, doesn't chew the furniture....plays nice. All the things they teach ya in kindergarten, he knows! However,......he smells! I give him baths, yes! But he's got this smell that really is not pleasant. He's not sick.....I clean his ears and all the folds on his face....I brush him...wipe him....to no avail......I suppose that's just the way it's going to be.....Its still ok...he's still my lil snot dog and he loves me unconditionally...and that's just fine with me.

Bad Boss?


Labor group seeks best stories of worst bosses

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. labor movement is asking workers to move their complaints about their bosses from the water cooler to the Web.
Working America, the AFL-CIO union federation's affiliate for nonunion workers, invited workers throughout the country on Monday to share their best stories about their worst bosses in its "My Bad Boss Contest."
Top prize is a one-week vacation.
"It's an opportunity for people to get this off their chests and to see what's happening out there and to shine a spotlight on this," said Working America Executive Director Karen Nussbaum.
It's also an opportunity for the worker advocacy group, which has more than 1 million members, to pick up new members, since contestants must go to www.workingamerica.org to enter.
Standing by to weigh in with on-line comments about the worst-boss stories are author Barbara Ehrenreich, who chronicled the plight of the working poor in "Nickel and Dimed," comedian tuned liberal talk show host Al Franken and liberal commentator Jim Hightower.
Voting for the best worst-boss stories will be done by Web readers over the next six weeks. Each week's top vote-getter will be eligible to compete for the grand prize, a seven-night vacation getaway and $1000 for a round trip air fare, to be announced by August 16
Leading vote-getters as of Monday were:
-- "Russ," whose table-thumping boss at a small Maryland company nixed bonuses, cut overtime and ordered managers to "instill fear" in workers to boost productivity, all because a competing company's owner had a more expensive car, and
-- "Graphics Girl," who left her Pennsylvania media company, and was publicly berated for doing so, after 10 years, including the last five where she worked 50 to 80 hours a week without overtime pay and often without seeing her children. "I missed birthdays and health and years of seasons changing since my office was in a basement with no windows, all for nothing," she wrote.
"It's important to legitimize for people that when you're treated unfairly on the job, that it's not necessarily something you have to swallow," commented Nussbaum.
And then there was "Nobody" from California who warned others by his own example of the perils of entering the contest from a workplace computer. "The fact that my entire Internet connection is monitored by my employer prohibits me from making a contribution," he wrote.

My own Dad passed away when I was 8 years old. Yeah he was young! I got my curly hair from him ya know...lol. Used to hate it. Don't now tho. I have great memories of him tho. I was his princess. I've missed him from my life. Often wonder how things would have turned out if he were here.

For the Benefit of Just D


Seems that my friend and blogger idol.(boondoggled)..is in somewhat of a pickle...........

She'd like to take a trip to a land far away...
The pickle that she's in is how will she pay?

Well, for the benefit of Mrs. D
There will be a show, you see.....
A small donation is all we ask.....
So she can get around to the task
Of going off to this distant land..
So she can hold the sweet sweet hand
Of a prince who'll sweep her off her feet...
The one she's going there to meet...
She'll be so sad if she cannot go
So I urge you all to see the show!
