Today was a long ass day. In fact, lately, they've all been long ass days. No business to speak of, makes every hour seem like two. The great news is after tomorrow, I'm off for three days, and heading south on Sunday night to visit my folks for a bit. I need a small getaway, if only overnight. I need a change of scenery.........bad! So I"ll hit the road, just cruise and unwind a bit, and have a nice visit with Mum and Dad, alone. Nice. I hope to go to lunch with them at the fire hall on Monday, and meet all the friends that they're always talking about. Other than that, I'll be happy to just chill on their deck with a cold drink, bullshit the day away, and just enjoy their company. One more tortureous day of work to go. Gotta hit the sheets. Nite!

Thank God I made it back! I thought I was gonna be gone forever..or at least it seemed that way! Anyway, my 'puter had a major nervous breakdown of sorts. A few viruses got through, and wreaked major havoc on my hard drive. Shit. Hubbs tried all kinds of things to get me back and rolling again, but in the end, had to get another hard drive, using my old one as a storage area for the time being. He's still trying to get me completely set up, but in the mean time, I at least have access again. Along with complete virus protection this time! Don't have to tell me twice. He's put soooo much time into getting this bullshit straightened out for me.......a zillion thanks go out to him. I couldn't do it on my own. Hell no. It's good to have a crew. Real good. P e a c e .

Alas! A beautiful day before me, and I have so many things to do, I just don't know where to begin. Damn. All that needs done is inside the house. You see, I live with slobs and the cleaning seems neverending. Lately, it's all beginning to get to me.....working full time and trying to keep up with this house work crap. I'm gonna have to have a serious talk with the guys, and set down some major rules. It's just not fair that I get stuck with all the mess 24/7.

I blew out of "the grind" an hour early tonight, and with two lovely days off before me, I be feelin' fine. Indeed. Best of all, they're supposed to be two decent days, weather wise. Finally! I got the title to my Vette in the mail yesterday and I'm hoping that my sticker won't be far behind. I'd like to know what moron decided that we shoud ride around for months with an ugly piece of paper taped to our back windows, untill we get our stickers for our plate. I can't stand to look at the thing anymore, and I run in the house like a little kid everyday to see if the friggin' sticker arrived yet. This is plain stupid. I'm sure I'm not the only one who finds this ridiculous. I mean shit, it's been two months already. Are they engraving it by hand? Idiots.
I was a Gabes on my dinner break today, and they had some really neat make-up and nail polish there. So I checked it all out, finally deciding to get a bottle of polish, in a pretty watermellony shade of well..........sparkly watermelon. Tonight I'm putting the polish on, and no matter how many coats I put on, the shit keeps getting LIGHTER! I'm thinking, am I nuts or what?? Well here I look at the name on the bottle, and it's a "mood" nail polish, and it changes from dark to light, in heat and cold. Great. So if I want to see the color that I originally bought it for, I have to keep my hands under cold running water. How convenient. Nite!

Some of these things are pretty amusing indeed! This is the "How evil are you" quiz...........





You are 30% evil! [?]


You're still on the good side of 50%, but you're gaining on it. You're not as good as you should be, but you're good ALMOST all of the time. There's only an occasional time when evil takes over you, but when it does...


Sheesh!

I hope everyone had a good start to the week! My day seemed to drag on forever, but it's over now, and I'm so happy to be home and kick my shoes off! On my commute to the "Grind" this morning, I heard my new favorite song, "Feelin' hella good" on the the radio. I'll tell ya, I really like that song! Had my feet tappin', and my head bobbing up and down! I really like the video, too. God I would love to look like Gwen Steffani, if only for a day. Really. Okay..........maybe two days. A week. That's it, just a week and I'd be satisfied. Really. Well I have to do the dishes then hit the sheets. Sweet dreams all. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

I don't know about the workaholic part!

I must say I'm still pretty happy about this page. It's nuthin' fancy by any means, but at least it's neat and uncluttered. Neat and uncluttered is another way for me to say that I have no talent what-so-ever to do anything fancy! I'm trying to come up with a new name and concept for my page, as this did start out to be a "group blog", but now it's turned into a solo act, much to my dismay. Another problem I have is that I don't have time to sit down and write everyday. Ugh. So I need to be able to put short thoughts down, without going into alot of detail. I dunno. So pleasr bear with me as I go through yet another transition. But that's what lifes all about. Changes.

Well, at last for now I have a page that I'm semi happy with. I'm still gonna change a few things around here, but for now I'm content. It's a beautiful, sunshiny day out, so I think I'm gonna get some gas in my "baby" and go for a little cruise. Later!

Okay, here's the scoop. If everything looks a mess right now...........well that's because it is! But actually it's alright with me, as I was planning an overhaul anyway. New name, new concept, the works. Please bear with me, because my web design skills are just as suck-ass as before. So, for the 2 or 3 of you out there that ocasionally read this stuff, thank you for bearing with me, the incompetent one. Peace.

Totally exhausted, I come here to try to write something worth reading. Nothing resides inside my head except, "Damn, I'm glad to be off work for the next two days." Nuff said. Hey, the way I figure it, if you want great, inspirational writing, better head out to Barnes and Noble, cause it just aint happenin' here folks. At least not tonight, anyway. My bones are tired, my brain is mushy, and my spirit is weary. Nuthin' that a couple of "brain-dead days" won't cure. I think I'm gonna head to the sheets now. Let the "cure" begin. Peace.

I am a "Blog-slacker"...........yes I am. Not that I haven't had anything to write about mind you, I just haven't really given much thought to "blogging" lately. I was sick for a week, had company for four days, just finished up a "7 day stretch" at work, and in my free time, I take "Baby" out for a drive. My house has gone to shit, I haven't even started on my gardens yet, and half the time I'm lucky if I get the laundry done and get my ass to work every day. I'm finally off today, and I'm torn between getting things done around here. or just chillin' and giving myself a well deserved day of R&R. Now Hubbs wouldn't even have a problem in this area. He'd just head off to the golf course, and that would be that! Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. I wonder if waxing my car qualifies as getting something done around here? Guilt ensues. Ugh.
