No Hope ;-(

Ok....Would someone please tell me what's going on here?

My doctor put me on a low carb diet last week, thought it would help with many of my complaints. Had hope!!!! Well, a week has gone by. Gained 3 pounds!

Hope vanishing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!

One of those days

I see stupid people .......they're everywhere....they walk around like everyone else...they don't even know that they're dumb......

road kill

When you drive past "road kill", do you ever wonder how it got there? I mean, I know the animal walked into the road at the most inopportune time before becoming a big fat SPLAT! But what makes them do it to begin with? Suicidal tendencies? To get to the other side?

I have one answer: to get away from attacking killer birds.

Was driving to the train station this morning, doing my thing-listening to my music, putting on my sunglasses- bopping..etc., when this big black cat came zooming out into the street right in front of my car! Never saw a cat move that fast! Three birds were on top of him, pecking at his back....man oh man! scared me to death!!!

(No I didn't splatter him). But it just proved this: You never know when future road kill will step into your path!

Another Monday

HAPPY MONDAY!!!!!!

Was too sick all weekend to really accomplish anything but some well deserved rest..but now Monday is here all over again!!!!Aarrgghh!!!!!!

Steak Anyone?

Went for a walk at lunch....saw this....PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) trying to encourage folks to become vegetarians......My question is why didn't they have a naked man instead??????????????????

Hope

I don't have anything to report about today....but the feeling of the day is......
HOPEFUL! I've got a plan.....(thanks to my doctor).She put me on all sorts of supplements....(for my brain fog and fatigue)...got me on a good diet....
So....summer - LQQK out,,,,,,,, here I come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh Shit

Do you know the most functional word in the English language?

Well, it's shit... that's right, shit! Shit may just be the most functional word in the English language!!

Consider:
You can get shit-faced, Be shit-out-of-luck, Or have shit for brains.With a little effort, you can get your shit together, find a place for your shit, or be asked to shit or get off the pot.

You can smoke shit, buy shit, sell shit, lose shit, find shit, forget shit, and tell others to eat shit.Some people know their shit, while others can't tell the difference between shit and shineola.

There are lucky shits, dumb shits, and crazy shits. There is bull shit, horse shit, and chicken shit.You can throw shit, sling shit, catch shit, shoot the shit, or duck when the shit hits the fan.You can give a shit or serve shit on a shingle.You can find yourself in deep shit or be happier than a pig in shit.

Some days are colder than shit, some days are hotter than shit, and some days are just plain shitty.Some music sounds like shit, things can look like shit, and there are times when you feel like shit.

You can have too much shit, not enough shit, the right shit, the wrong shit or a lot of weird shit.You can carry shit, have a mountain of shit, or find yourself up shit creek without a paddle.

Sometimes everything you touch turns to shit and other times you fall in a bucket of shit and come out smelling like a rose.

When you stop to consider all the facts, it's the basic building block of the English language.And remember, once you know your shit, you don't need to know anything else!!You could pass this along, if you give a shit; or not do so if you don't give a shit!Well Shit, it's time for me to go. Just wanted you to know that I do give a shit and hope you had a nice day, without a bunch of shit. But, if you happened to catch a load of shit from some shit-head..........Well, Shit Happens!!!

Snot's Day

Hmmmmm Guess who's birthday I forgot to tell you about?????
(He's been out partying since then.......(was May 5th)

Kahlil Gibran
... joy and sorrow are inseparable. . . together they come and when one sits alone with you . . . remember that the other is asleep upon your bed.

Lonesome

So lonely, the computer wires sit on my desk, misssing their connection, not knowing how long it will be until they are reuntied. They gave their modem life, until that fateful night when, poof, the hard drive went into nervous breakdown mode. So young too! And there they sit now awaiting it's return........so lonely.

Mom

Happy Mom's Day!!!!!!!!!!!

Saw the cutest thing this morning while walking the dog. Wish I had a camera.
Two lil boys, one about 5, one about 7. Walking with their father. I was behind them. They had backbacks on that looked as if they had lots of stuff in them. They were walking in front of me. Struggling with these back packs...walking along. In their hands they were carrying large boquets of flowers, and they just looked so proud to be carrying them....as if they couldn't wait to get home to Mom!

?????

Whatever happened to Preparations A through G?

WOMAN'S PERFECT BREAKFAST

She's sitting at the table with her gourmet coffee.
Her son is on the cover of the Wheaties box.
Her daughter is on the cover of Business Week.
Her boyfriend is on the cover of Playgirl.
And her husband is on the back of the milk carton

Wish List

Ok....I have to remember to bring my camera along when I go to work...I'm going to post my walk to work since i talk about it so much.

Another idea I had..interview doormen. Wonder how that would pan out. We'll see.

WOW

FROM THE ONION:

Archaeological Dig Uncovers Ancient Race Of Skeleton People
December 8, 1999 Issue 35•45

AL JIZAH, EGYPT—A team of British and Egyptian archaeologists made a stunning discovery Monday, unearthing several intact specimens of "skeleton people"—skinless, organless humans who populated the Nile delta region an estimated 6,000 years ago.

An archaeologist examines the intact remains of a spooky "skeleton person."
"This is an incredible find," said Dr. Christian Hutchins, Oxford University archaeologist and head of the dig team. "Imagine: At one time, this entire area was filled with spooky, bony, walking skeletons."

"The implications are staggering," Hutchins continued. "We now know that the skeletons we see in horror films and on Halloween are not mere products of the imagination, but actually lived on Earth."

Standing at the excavation site, a 20-by-20-foot square pit along the Nile River, Hutchins noted key elements of the find. "The skeletons lived in this mud-brick structure, which, based on what we know of these people, was probably haunted," he said. "Although we found crude cooking utensils in the area, as well as evidence of crafts like pottery and weaving, we are inclined to believe that the skeletons' chief activity was jumping out at nearby humans and scaring them. And though we know little of their language and means of communication, it is likely that they said 'boogedy-boogedy' a lot."

Approximately 200 yards west of the excavation site, the archaeologists also found evidence of farming.

"What's puzzling about this," Cambridge University archaeologist Sir Ian Edmund-White said, "is that skeletons would not benefit from harvested crops, as any food taken orally would immediately fall through the hole behind the jaw and down through the rib cage, eventually hitting the ground. Our best guess is that they scared away a group of human farmers, then remained behind to haunt the dwelling. Or perhaps they bartered goods in a nearby city to acquire skeleton accessories, such as chains, coffins and tattered, dirty clothing."

Continued Edmund-White: "The hole in that theory, however, is that a 1997 excavation of this area which yielded extensive records of local clans and merchants made no mention of even one animated mass of bones coming to town for the purpose of trade. But we are taking great pains to recover as much of the site as possible, while also being extremely careful not to fall victim to some kind of spooky skeleton curse."
As for what led to the extinction of the skeletons, Edmund-White offered a theory.
"Perhaps an Egyptian priest or king broke the curse of the skeletons, either by defeating the head skeleton in combat or by discovering the magic words needed to send their spirits back to Hell," Edmund-White said. "In any case, there is strong evidence that the Power of Greyskull played a significant role in the defeat of the skeleton people."
According to Hutchins, the skeletons bear numerous similarities to humans, leading him to suspect that there may be an evolutionary link between the two species.
"Like humans, these creatures walked upright on two legs and possessed highly developed opposable thumbs," Edmund-White said. "These and many other similarities lend credence to the theory that hundreds of thousands of years ago, human development passed through a skeletal stage. These skeletons may, in fact, be ancestors of us all."
"Any of us could be part skeleton," he added.
Other experts disagreed.
"The evidence of an evolutionary link between humans and skeletons is sparse at best," said Dr. Terrance Schneider of the University of Chicago. "Furthermore, it is downright unscientific to theorize that skeleton life originated in Egypt merely because mummies, another species of monster, are indigenous to the area. Spooky creatures are found all over the world, from the vampires of Transylvania to the headless horsemen of Sleepy Hollow."

Wings

My nana once told me that if you see a feather on the street it means your guardian angel was there and all the things that have been worrying you will disappear. I used to see feathers all the time....and had not in a long time. I've seen feathers in my path for the past two days now. I smile.

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will.

You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time.

You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken.

You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did.

You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love.

So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.~anonymous~

And besides...gotta play with the lil dog first...cook dinner...take a shower..get ready for the next day...Play games on my computer......Why aren't there 36 hours in a day? I think we should start a campaign to revise the calendar! That way I could do a lot more. (and sleep a lot more!)

Did I ever tell you how I love my ex-boss??????????

Commute Talk (yes again)

Got on the train this morning.....some guy behind me pushes me and says hurry up...so he can get to a seat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I turn around .....tell him to just wait! (you asshole). Geeze.
So he sits right down next to me!...yuck......!!! (nothing else happened....in case you're sitting on the edge of your chair). My common sense kicked in...and told me that this could get out of hand and he could shoot me or sompin.....(and it wasn't all that important anyway).
Come on people.......get a hold yourselves.....and stop and smell the roses!!!!

Don't Mess with My Routine :-)

I know I talk a lot about my walk to work and I’m going to speak of it again.
Walking in NYC is a lot like driving in NYC. There’s a certain rhythm to it. You have to go with the flow….weaving in and out and in between others…..and it flows nicely.
If one is not used to doing this….you’re liable to get bunked into…slowed down, angry, etc. I get bothered if one of my fellow co workers wants to walk to the train with me after work…because they interfere with my flow. I have it down pat. I know what route I’m taking, the fastest route to take….the sunny side of the street. I don’t like it when my strategic route gets interfered with. It upsets my routine.

Happy Dancing (NOT)! MONDAY

Ok , I've discovered the "Quote of the Day" page, so what???
Just makes life easier on this not so sunny Monday....
and I don't have to use my brain cells. So here ya go:


Laughter is an instant vacation.
Milton BerleUS television actor & comedian (1908 - 2002)



I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life's realities.

Dr. Seuss (1904 - 1991)

Satuday

Rainy, windy, cold, dark, damp, dank..........
No sun, just wet.
Summer? AARRGGHH!!!!!!

Friday!

Happy Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!! Doing the happy dance...in spite of the fact I turned on my ankle the other day.

Don't have much time right now but here's some quotes of the day that I liked:


Part of being sane, is being a little bit crazy.
Janet Long


And we should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. And we should call every truth false which was not accompanied by at least one laugh.
Friedrich Nietzsche

and, last but not least:

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.

(Who said this?) (Winner will get a prize). (Ask Just D what the prize will be, she's good at those things...lol)

I Walk

The very act of walking used to make me cringe..because I'm a lazy-bones at heart. But I DO exercise and I DO walk a lot in spite of myself. I walk a mile to and from the train each morning, I walk my dog 3-4 times a day, I walk a lot at work, back and forth to other offices, I walk around the City at lunch time...walk..walk..walk..(which reminds me though, I haven't taken a walk on the wild side in a really long time) {oh well, that may be a subject for a future post..lol}

Well....all this walking, I believe, saved my butt this morning. Was exiting the side door of my house at 5Am (to WALK the dog) and missed the last step, fell, (very gracefully, ha ha) and turned on my ankle really bad. I said: DAMMMMMMMMMM!!!!! I broke my ankle!" (plus a few other expletives I won't mention here). So here I am, laying on my back in my driveway. (the neighbors probably thinking: there 's that crazy lady again, she's laying down on the sidewalk over there). I roll over and grab the side of the house and ease my body up...up....Ok Good. I'm standing. I put pressure on my foot. OK Good. No pain. I start to WALK. OK Good. I can!!! Hallelujah! Yippee! Hurrah!!!

Hmmm....nothing......didn't break it....no pain.....walking.....walking.....

Guess all that walking strenghened up those muscles and tendons...!!!! I'm OK. I'm walking my lil dog down the block....Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'M READY FOR THAT WALK ON THE WILD SIDE NOW............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before My Time...But Interesting!!!! (He He He)

Comments Made In The Year 1957
==============================

I'll tell you one thing, if things keep going the way they are,
it's going to be impossible to buy a week's groceries for $20.

Have you seen the new cars coming out next year?
It won't be long before $2000 will only buy a used one.

If cigarettes keep going up in price, I'm going to quit.
A quarter a pack is ridiculous.

Did you hear the post office is thinking about charging a dime
just to mail a letter?

If they raise the minimum wage to $1, nobody will be able to
hire outside help at the store.

When I first started driving, who would have thought gas would
someday cost 29 cents a gallon.
Guess we'd be better off leaving the car in the garage.

Kids today are impossible. Those duck tail hair cuts make it
impossible to stay groomed. Next thing you know, boys will be
wearing their hair as long as the girls.

I'm afraid to send my kids to the movies any more. Ever since
they let Clark Gable get by with saying, "damn" in "Gone With The
Wind," it seems every new movie has either hell or damn in it.

I read the other day where some scientist thinks it's possible to
put a man on the moon by the end of the century. They even have
some fellows they call astronauts preparing for it down in Texas.

Did you see where some baseball player just signed a contract
for $75,000 a year just to play ball? It wouldn't surprise me
if someday they'll be making more than the president.

I never thought I'd see the day all our kitchen appliances would
be electric. They are even making electric typewriters now.

It's too bad things are so tough nowadays. I see where a few
married women are having to work to make ends meet.

It won't be long before young couples are going to have to hire
someone to watch their kids so they can both work.

Marriage doesn't mean a thing any more; those Hollywood stars
seem to be getting divorced at the drop of a hat.

I'm just afraid the Volkswagen car is going to open the door to
a whole lot of foreign business.

Thank goodness I won't live to see the day when the Government
takes half our income in taxes. I sometimes wonder if we are
electing the best people to Parliament.

The drive-in restaurant is convenient in nice weather,
but I seriously doubt they will ever catch on.

There is no sense going to Lincoln or Omaha anymore for a
weekend. It costs nearly $15 a night to stay in a hotel.

No one can afford to be sick any more; $35 a day in the hospital
is too rich for my blood.

If they think I'll pay 50 cents for a hair cut, forget it.

Know friends who would get a kick out of these? Pass it on!

AWWW

AWWWW.......AIN'T IT CUTE??????????

(it's a bat)

Borrowed from another blog....just had to...lol...(thank you Canada)

Sweet Dreams

Blonde

HAPPY MONDAY! (even though it's Tuesday). I had yesterday off so today is my Monday.
I had a very philosophical conversation last night with a friend of mine, and the moral of the story came down to "One does not need to be be blonde, to have a stupid moment".

HOPPY DAY!

Happy Holidays to you and yours!

S L O W D O W N ! ! !

I drive myself crazy. I work in New York City and I walk about a mile after getting off the train to my office. It's in a very nice "looking" part of the city and i usually enjoy my walk. I keep myself busy by looking at people. I like to look and watch. I am not a stalker. Just a casual observer. I look to see what people are wearing, how their hair is styled, the colors or non-colors worn. Then I make my lil critique and approve or disapprove and decide what would look better or whether I should get 'one of those' or that would look better on me. I also look at their faces (something that is NOT done in NYC, no one ever looks directly into your eyes) and see what expression they have, see if their eyes are alive or not. It totally amazes me that there can be so many people in the same place and the same time and do not even acknowledge one another's existence!

WE'RE ALL MOVING TOO FAST...........SLOW DOWN!!!!!!!!! , my brain shouts out to them. They can't hear me tho..lol....but i'm thinking maybe, just maybe, the spirit that is New York, will catch wind of my brain waves and pass it along.

Hip Hip Hurray!!!!!!

OK....I'm back in business....in case you haven't or didn't notice, I was in a sort of mourning period because my friend, Not Hannah, decided to close down, shut off the world, write no more on her blog!!!!!! She was my blog idol!! She couldn't do this to me, let alone the rest of the blogging world! (do you think i use too many exclamation points?, there was a Seinfeld episode on that lol). Sorry I get sidetraced easily. LOL. Well I hear she's back in business. Yeah!!! GREAT! FANTASTIC! WONDERFUL! MARVELOUS! STUPENDOUS! (yes and i also get carried away). Check her out: boondoggled.blogspot.com

April Fools and Sleep

Geeze, where have I been? It's been a while since I've posted...and i'm really pissed I missed April Fools Day! (oh what a fool am I)! Damn.

Anyhoo, my only gripe today is getting used to this hour ahead business. I really didn't think a lousy hour would affect me the way it did. It's just like jet lag. I wasn't able to fall asleep like i usually do which resulting in my ass dragging all week. Maybe today I'll be caught up with it.

Kangeroo Porn

Well, i guess i am a fan of kangeroo porn, altho i have denied it in the past....LMAO

In keeping with the spring/holiday theme...here's another egg story for ya:

The chicken and the egg are laying in bed. The chicken is smoking a cigarette with a satisfied smile on its face while the egg is frowning and looking slightly annoyed.The egg mutters "Well I guess that answers that riddle".

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

May We All Be Coffee

This is long but very thought provoking.
How do you see yourself?>
A carrot, an egg, and a cup of coffee...
You will never look at a cup of coffee the same way again.

A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how
things were hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it
and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It
seemed as one problem was solved, a new one arose.

Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water
and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to boil. In the
first she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs, and in the
last she placed ground coffee beans. She let them sit and boil; withoutsaying a word.

In about twenty minutes she turned off the burners. She fished the
carrots out and placed them in a bowl. She pulled the eggs out and
placed them in a bowl. Then she ladled the coffee out and placed it ina bowl.
Turning to her daughter, she asked, "Tell me what you see."
"Carrots, eggs, and coffee," she replied.

Her mother brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She
did and noted that they were soft. The mother then asked the daughter
to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed
the hard boiled egg. Finally, the mother asked the daughter to sip the
coffee. The daughter smiled as she tasted its rich aroma.

The daughter then asked, "What does it mean, mother?"
Her mother explained that each of these objects had faced the same
adversity: boiling water. Each reacted differently. The carrot went in
strong, hard, and unrelenting. However, after being subjected to the
boiling water, it softened and became weak. The egg had been fragile.
It's thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior, but after
sitting through the boiling water, its inside became hardened. The
ground coffee beans were unique, however. After they were in the
boiling water, they had changed the water.

"Which are you?" she asked her daughter. "When adversity knocks on your
door, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?
Think of this: Which am I? Am I the carrot that seems strong, but with
pain and adversity do I wilt and become soft and lose my strength?

Am I the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with theheat?
Did I have a fluid spirit, but after a death, a breakup, a financial
hardship or some other trial, have I become hardened and stiff? Does my
shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter and tough with a
stiff spirit and hardened heart?

Or am I like the coffee bean? The bean actually changes the hot water,
the very circumstance that brings the pain. When the water gets hot, it
releases the fragrance and flavor. If you are like the bean, when
things are at their worst, you get better and change the situationaround you.
When the hour is the darkest and trials are their greatest, do you
elevate yourself to another level? How do you handle adversity? Are you
a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make
you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human and enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. The
brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past; you can't go
forward in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling.

Live your life so at the end, you're the one who is smiling and
veryone around you is crying.

You might want to send this message to those people who mean something
to you (I JUST DID); to those who have touched your life in one way or
another; to those who make you smile when you really need it; to those
who make you see the brighter side of things when you are really down;
to those whose friendship you appreciate; to those who are so
meaningful in your life.

If you don't send it, you will just miss out on the opportunity to
brighten someone's day with this message!>

It's easier to build a child than repair an adult. This is so true -
may we all be COFFEE.

A man walks into a bar with a newt on his shoulder.
The barman looks at the creature and asks the man what he calls it.
"Tiny" replies the man.
"Why's that?" asks the bartender.
"Because he's my newt!"

Amen!

My spelling is sometimes atrocious. I used to be an excellent
speller. What happened? Spell checker.

As I type on the computer now, if I misspell a word, the spell
checking feature automatically puts a red line under the
misspelled word. I simply right-click on the word and several
options appear for the correct spelling.

It's a great feature, but it has made me a bad speller. I no
longer need to think or remember how to properly spell words.
The spell checker does that for me.

I understand why life can't have a spell checker. It makes us
weak and dependent on the machine instead of the mind.
The easier life gets, often the weaker we get.

Just look at what cars, elevators, escalators, moving sidewalks,
power windows, automatic doors, dishwashers, washing machines,
television, video games and yes, computers have done for the
majority of our bodies. We are rounder and softer than ever and
as a result, often quite unhealthy.

Just go to the mall and watch as people circle the parking lot
looking for the closest spot to the door that involves the least
amount of walking. Usually, they NEED the exercise.

Sometimes easy street and the path of least resistance is a dead
end. We need hills and mountains in life just to help keep us
in shape. They help our bodies; they help develop our spirits.

Ocaisionally we need to turn the spell chekker off and think and
purhaps park at the farr end of the lot.

Lonely Jeans

Saw a pair of jeans lying by the side of the road this morning while driving to work. Hmmm...infinite possibilities...came to mind as I looked at them....so lonely there.
I mean did someone lose them on their way to the laundramat? Was their car window open and did a gust of wind swoop them up and blow them out to the road? Maybe the driver just threw them out, keeping them for as long as they could in the back of their car just in case? Hmmm.
Maybe someone was changing a tire, and you know how your pants kinda slip down when squatting...showing a lil butt crack...and they got all sorts of greasy...so he just abandoned them by the side of this road. Maybe someone was just walking along, minding their own business and a killer dog ran out from one of the auto body shops there and clamped his jaws around one of their pant legs. So instead of standing there and letting this dog take a chomp out their leg, they quickly slid out their jeans.. and left them, abandoned. Or maybe, just maybe.............someone is walking around today sans a pair of jeans...cause he was doing something that requires nudity in the back of a car?under the overpass?? OHHHHHH MYYYYYY....the possiblities!!!!!! Have a nice day!

Ohhhhh....."Rainy days and Mondays always get me down......" la la la la.........
Back at work after a relatively boring weekend......I suppose that's what life is all about. I should just be grateful I had two days off huh? I just didn't feel like moving this weekend tho. Had plenty to do tho and got a lot of it done in spite of myself. LOL So here's some thoughts for today:

Work like you don't need the money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody's watching.
Sing like nobody's listening.
Live like it's Heaven on Earth.

Soooo be happy, in spite of yourself.

Happy Green!

All Is Well

In case you're wondering, the lil snot dog is ok. It appears to be his allergies are acting up because of the severe change in the weather.. (i'm soo glad it wasn't anything more serious) the poor lil guy was so listless yesterday.....and after i gave him some benedryl....lol...poor guy was walking around as if he drank a fifth of scotch...lmao....

So I'm back in work and here's some advise i received in one of my emails...(don't know why but i like these motivational kinda sayings) . Gives me something to aspire to...when i grow up:

ONE: Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other.

THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.

FOUR. When you say, "I love you," mean it.

FIVE. When you say, "I'm sorry," look the person in the eye.

A Dog and Some Prayers

ok..I have to take today off from work....My lil dog is sick!!!! awwww!!! I'm waiting to call the vet now....In the meantime.....my morning prayers: 1) Dear Lord, So far today, am I doing all right? I have not gossiped, lost my temper, been greedy, gurmpy, nasty, selfish, or self-indulgent. I have not whined, complained, cursed or eaten any chocolate. I have charged nothing on my credit cart. But I will be getting out of bed in a minute and I think that i will really need your help then. 2) Dear Lord, I don't ask for much in a man. He only has to be tall, rich, funny, sexy, single, strong, good-looking, smart, romantic, charming, warm, sweet, sensitive, clever, athletic, kind, generous, punctual, sincere and of course he has to be willing to feed me ice cream in bed every single night for the rest of my life. :)

TO ME, FROM ME :-)

Should I take time to sit and ponder how my life has been over the past year? The reason I ask is that it was my birthday this past weekend and in the past I'd take a peak backwards to see if I was living up to my expectations. Well.....since this year has been a total blur in my mind (not from drugs or alchohol mind you) I really can't say if my expectations have been attained! So now how am I going to measure my progress????

I know!!! (she's says as a lil light bulb goes off). It was not really progression for me, I believe it was digression. I departed from my life of maturity and wandered into being silly and immature. And you know something? I LIKE IT!!!!!! :) I mean I've really done nothing really stupid...just in my mind...LOL and I'm acting like a teenager (what's wrong with that?). So it's like I'm growing younger....yeah!!!!!!! That's it!....mmmmmmm......Now I'm not so depressed!!!!!

CED

Ok...So I took old bug eyes to work on "Take Your Dog to Work Day".....I didn't expect he'd get my job! Geeze!
(and he snotted all over my papers!)
