Sicky-icky

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

So last night I felt a tickle in my throat but nothing too telling. I figured I could sleep it off and I’d feel great this morning, no such luck. So far it seems to be a mild cold so hopefully it’ll stay that way. Right now my nose is runny and my throat is swollen, I got some over-the-counter pills at the grocery store today so I’m hoping that will keep me afloat for a while.

Speaking of the grocery store, I take my mom every Wednesday, it’s our little weekly adventure. We’ve even started including it on Twitter as a game. When I check-in on foursquare I always ask for everyone to guess our total, and then post the results when we check out. This week was a whopping $255.83 at Publix, granted just shopping at Publix adds to the bill.

Andy and Billy are playing Super Mario Bros on the Wii, so I figured WordPress could occupy some of my free time. Speaking of, the WordPress for iPad app (what I’m using) needs a couple of bugs squashed. Sometimes the fields will overlap when the screen rotates and it’ll become permanently stuck that way. Also a good portion of the time when you attempt to attach a picture to a blog post the app just crashes, which is a major headache.

I’ve been craving some Sour Patch Kids (watermelon) candy the last few days, and they actually had a bad at Publix today. It satisfied my craving but they aren’t as good as they normally are since I’m sick. =(

New HaircutOh, I had all my hair cut off the other day! I totally forgot to mention that. The long hair was nice but it wasn’t functional this time of the year. I have to flat iron it everyday, and the first drop of sweat and it will start to curl and look awful. Plus with as hot as it’s been lately I could only keep it looking good for maybe an hour at most, so it just had to go. We’ve been a lot more social with our new friends than we are use to (and I’m so thankful for it) that I just had to lop it all off. Let’s see if I can get a picture attached to this post without the app crashing. Oh and this was taken with the front facing camera on my iPhone 4; shameless plug I know but I LOVE my new iPhone.

Brush With Death

Friday, April 9th, 2010

So I had a small brush with death this morning. After waking up and finding some clothes; I staggered into the bathroom, peed, and then started to brush my teeth. Halfway through brushing my teeth the damn tooth brush snapped in half lodging the brush end in my throat. I coughed it up thankfully but damn! Completely unexpected, although it did wake my ass up. Now I feel the need to be adventurous today and try to cheat death again.

Hahaha!!! I just realized I said “brush” with death. LoL!

Bacon!

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

Ok I know this is random too, and that seems to be my theme as of late; but I smell bacon. Now, in this house that normally wouldn’t be that odd of a smell. However we aren’t cooking, and haven’t cooked bacon in quite some time. The only reasonable explanation is that I’m having a stroke, which explains some other abnormal things with me today. Earlier I felt as though I was drunk and light headed even though I haven’t had alcohol in probably three weeks or so. Irregardless of the possible stroke, the mystery bacon that I’m smelling smells really good and now I’m craving it… Hell I could be pregnant too!

Alright, everyone get back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Sad World

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

What kind of world has it become when you cant even use the word Velcro anymore. I just saw a commercial on tv for something and they referred to the Velcro as a “hook and loop” system; WTF?! Seriously Velcro, Sheetrock, Kleenex, and Ziplock should be used synonymously with all brands of the same products.

Random rant of the day.

*Cough Cough*

Monday, April 5th, 2010

This cold is so getting old. I don’t have any of the symptoms anymore except now I’m coughing my head off. I’d take a cough suppressant but I’ve always been told the best way to get over a cough is to let it run its course; you have to cough up all the ick to make it go away. So wouldn’t a suppressant just make it drag out longer? I have noticed today that my coughing seems to be “deeper” so maybe thats a good thing, or not…

How lame is it that I want to read the Richard Castle book, but I’m too lazy to even make it through the preview of it in iTunes? I really enjoy the tv show so I was hoping the book would be similar but hell at this rate I’ll never know.

Speaking of iTunes and iPads and iPhones; after having sent considerable time with an iPad it makes my iPhone feel so tiny in comparison. I pick it up to answer a text message and it feels like I almost need a magnifying glass to see the virtual keyboard.

Bailey was so cute earlier, I gave him some of my cheesecake and he really liked it. I felt bad though because Loki wanted some too but there wasn’t any left. It’ll probably make them sick but it was nice to see him happy (Bailey not Loki).

I’m starting to ramble about my surroundings so I better cut this short. Later y’all!

Happy Easter!

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

So here it is, Easter again. I think this year is flying by, seems like it was just Thanksgiving almost. I’m out at my grandma’s house right now passing time. We always come out here each year for the main holidays. It’s nice to see the family, I only wish that the food selection was more to my liking. I usually just sit here at the table watching everyone else eat.

It’s kinda lonely out here this year. All of the family is here except Billy. I had to leave him at home this year. Last night he fell and hurt his knee so its all swollen so he’s stuck in bed. All he can really do it hobble to the door to smoke and then right back in the bed he goes; poor thing. He’s got some good pain killers though.

So I’m writing this on my new iPad. =) I have to say that its not half bad. I really like it. It may not be the most practical thing in the world but I really like it. I was most excited about playing sudoku on it; no more fat fingering it! However I have fully mastered sudoku on my iPhone yet I’ve not won a single game on here. What’s up with that?

Well I wont babble any longer; I think it’s time for Dexter. =)

Remodeling

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

It’s been a long unpublished road lately. Billy has slaved away in the bathroom on this remodeling project and it’s finally paying off. I wasn’t able to gut the bathroom entirely like I wanted to but it has transformed entirely over the past six weeks. We are almost finished too! Thus far we’ve repainted the entire set of rooms in a nice calming spa blue pallet. Rather than ripout the tile floor we chose to restain the grout from a dirty white to a nice medium grey. Also we took out the giant 80′s style mirror and Hollywood style lights, and replaced them with two separate framed mirrors with recessed lights and pendants. All the fixtures in the bathroom were previously chrome, but now they are oil-rubbed bronze (very nice if I do say so myself). All we have left to finish is the built in cabinet over the toilet. Well that and replacing the door knobs; but we are going to replace all the door knobs in the house and at $25 each it’s an expensive endeavor all on it’s own.

As soon as everything is finished I’ll take pictures for everyone that hasn’t or can’t come over to see it in person. If you all had been wondering where we’ve both been lately, now you know!

That Boy is a Monster.

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

We french-kissed on a subway train; he tore my clothes right off. He ate my heart an then he ate my brain…

I don’t know why I’m so smitten with this song but I absolutely love it!

Today we had our big family Christmas with the relatives and it was pretty good. There were a few missed faces but I’m glad I got to see everyone. My mom’s side of the family is very large so we always try and get everyone together around the holiday, but still giving them time to spend on christmas with their own families. We’ll spend Christmas day with my dads side of the family like usual. The dog is asleep, I think she had too much turkey; haha. Poor kitties hid under the bed all day, which is normal for them. Bailey has his neuter appointment in the morning, so he’s sure to not be very merry for Christmas. My grandma gave all of her children a two and a half pound box of assorted chocolates; ironically most of them are diabetic. Football has been on all day in the background, and I have no clue about any of it. I haven’t hardly typed anything and I’m already losing my concentration and starting to ramble on. I better stop now before I get too far off track.

New Additions

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

BaileySo over the past two weeks we have gained a new addition to our little family. Billy discovered a kitten from the litter that the stray had in our backyard swimming in the pool. It was making laps around because it couldn’t get out and it was running out of will quickly. He was able to scoop it out with the net and brought it into the house. We nursed it back to health and dried it out, but the little thing is just so cute we had to keep him. He appears to be a Himalayan (long haired, colored like a Siamese, with short legs). His eyes are the prettiest blue color, and I hope they stay that way. It has taken us two weeks now to decide on a name for the little guy. After much debate we decided on Bailey; mostly because he’s the color of Bailey’s Irish Creme. I wish he’d stay a tiny kitten forever but I know he won’t.

I Just Don't Understand.

Monday, August 17th, 2009

I simply just can’t understand why my father loves to drive me insane. There has to be some reason why he either purposely does things, or cannot seem to “remember” not to do them. Everyday, over and over the same thing happens.

Months ago my father finally decided to sell his car. He never drove it, and the convertible top had started to leak so it had been bound to a life in the garage; of which it never moved for almost a year. He finally told me that if I could sell it I could park my car in the garage in its place (seeing as how his truck is too big to fit in the garage anyway). Months went by and no offers on the stupid car, and then finally someone bought the damn thing. Now I can park in the garage! I should be happy and ecstatic; key word being ‘should’.

Every day when my father comes home from work, he parks the behemoth of a truck right behind my car so there is no way I can leave to go anywhere. I bitch and complain constantly about it, yet every day over and over he either can’t “remember” not to, or for some reason he just has to be inconsiderate. Hearing the garage door in the afternoon, knowing its him coming home makes my blood pressure go through the roof, and I get an instant migraine from it.

I want to move, god help me I just want out. What is the point of being able to get in the garage if my car sits there for weeks because I can’t ever get it back out. I could rummage through my mom’s purse and find the other set of keys and move it (every time), or I could just park in the street (which would be stupid too). What really pisses me off is when it was the other way around; and he still drove his car. I NEVER blocked him in, I was ALWAYS courteous about it and made sure he could get out of the garage. Apparently when the shoe is on the over foot it would rather kick my ass for ‘sport’.

I think the headache pills have finally started to kick in. Ugh, he is such a jackass.

I just had to vent today, and I know I sound like a teenager, but I’m not. I’m just one of those people that when the same button gets pushed over and over and over and over again whatever miniscule “thing” it actually is turns into a BIG deal to me.
