Something is not right here.

Do you ever get the feeling that something in your life is wrong and that it's casting a dark shadow on your existence. Well I found out that something just like that has been happening. A certain pest has been removed from my life today when it was found out. Now I look forward to bright days ahead. On a lighter note I absolutely love my new school and the people I will be studying with, including my teachers are awesome people. I love them.Green

The soapbox

:ranger: lol.....Well, if I haven't gotten on anyones nerves just yet, that all changed today when I made my first real oppositional post in the soapbox...I was reading these posts on this topic called The Agenda, and up until today, I was feeling what people were saying, then I read a post blaming the President for all kinds of problems that some people have in this country, and I couldn't stop myself from posting. I guess you can say that I have no patience for people who think that the gov

this could be fun...

Ok, so my little brother has this up on his my space thing, with some variations, but I think it is cute...1. Who are you? 2. Are we friends? 3. When and how did we meet? 4. Do you have a crush on me?5. Would you kiss me? 6. Give me a nickname and explain why you picked it. 7. Describe me in one word. 8. What was your first impression? 9. Do you still think that way about me now? 10. What reminds you of me? 11. If you could give me anything what would it be? 12. How well do you know me? 13. When

More than a thug

I spent the night at my bf's house last night and we watched a dvd, a documentary about 2pac, and when I was listening to his interviews, I realized that he was so much more than he came off as in his songs. I mean, a lot of his songs were so brilliant. Im not sure how many people here listen to rap, but I love it, and my dad loves 2pac more than I do, so I was excited when I found out we were gonna see a movie about his life.What was so amazing to me was the fact that he talked about listening

grossness and stuff...

So, I had to go to this dumbass meeting for work today where they have all the Safety Managers for each store in our district come and tell us what we already know and then have to listen to people complain about how s**t in their stores isn't happening how it should... whatever! Then they bring our store managers there for the last hour so they can talk down to them in front of us. Like if they tell them all this stuff in front of us then we know that they know and they know that we know they k

Sick Day

What a weird day, Ive just got home from the hospital, having been taken in by ambulance from work. I was walking around the store with my dept. managers when all of a sudden I hit the floor, well thats what the Doc has told me since the last thing I remember is walking around telling them to do stuff. The next thing I know im lying in a hospital bed with a Doctor taking blood from me. The've told me they dont know whats up but that I need to take it easy for a few days, He's sending the blood o

Silly Me :)

I need to say thanks the Vic for telling me how to post on my blog. I guess I could have just read the screen, but that might have actually saved me some trouble, so as usual, I ignored the simple instructions.Anyway, I finished chapter 10 today of my story and posted it on my Xanga page. One of the people who reads it suggested that I write a preface, just to make the story easier to follow. I guess chapter one kinda throws people off, so I need to decide if I want to write the preface now, or

*long sigh*

lol..Im not sure if anyone is actually reading this, but I thought I would update it anyway. Im still working hard on my story, and I have 9 chapters posted already, but last night I realized that non fiction can be boring. I guess I didn't really think about how my life looked to other people. But Im not going to change what I plan on writing. I started this story and I plan on finishing it. It's really just something for me and my bf to read when it's done, but like I said in the last entry, I

Hi Everyone

Well, this is something new I didn't know I could do here...this place get cooler and cooler. Anyway, I found this site a while ago and I've been reading the stories, especially Dom Lukas stories. He is so talented and his stories make me think about so much. Anyway, I started writing a story myself, but I have no idea what to do with it, so I've been posting each chapter on my Xanga page, and I've been getting some feedback from certain people. I guess right now a lot of people are upset becaus

why am I the last one to know everything?

So this is a story about how my family never tells me important things. My brother and sister both live in South Carolina, about a half hour from each other. Yesterday my sister gets a call from my brother saying to call the police (why he didn't call them himself, I don't know) because there's someone under his house. The police show up, and my brother is running around with a butcher knife and freaking out. The cops look, don't see anybody, and are about to leave when my brother insists that

saving grace...

So, as I have been chatting around and posting comments in forums and on blogs, I have made some great new friends, and I have been called 'Grace' (referring to the show Will and Grace) by Michael - so sweet of him- and I have a couple of new little brothers. All around I would say a pretty good way to spend a Saturday night. I am usually the one that people turn to for advice or for a shoulder to cry on. Maybe it is because I am a good listener, maybe it is because I have been through a lot of

Mother's Intuition

Let's set the mood for this post by saying straightaway that I had a shitty day. Actually that's not true. I had a pretty good day. Everything pretty much went right, no real issues. I'm just in a bad mood and I don't know why. Maybe it's rainy and cloudy...that can make me melancholy...I could never live in Seattle, or Juneau. So I'm sitting at home reading papers (like I do) and my phone rings...it's my mother. We chat for a bit, and then she tells me that I really seem adamant and outs

PMS...

OK, so I have been trying to decide what PMS means to me... it is something that I am usually lucky enough not to have to experience, or should I say my husband is lucky enough, but these past few days, ok, I admit it, I have been a big ol' B**CH!! Now I have wondered if it stands for 'putting up with men's shit', but now I think it might be ' putting up with MY shit'... I dunno. We officially had a fight over something dumb, since we were both saying the exact same thing, but what I needed or

curse the sun

Well, I'm hungover today, but I'm pretty sure I had fun last night. My bf and I got invited to this party, and honest to god, I wanted to be dorky and go to the museum today, so I said we were only gonna stay for an hour or so. Yeah, well. I think we got home around 6 am. That great dispenser of wisdom, the guy who made the previously mentioned Ninja Turtles remark, was there, but unfortunately I can't remember anything he said. I need to start taking along a tape recorder. I do know that a

cheese popcorn... yum

Don't you just hate it when you pull up to the gas pump and turn off the car, get out to go pay for your gas and the credit card part of the pump is out of order and now you have to go inside and wait behind twelve people trying to buy a cup of coffee before work on your day off? Hmmmmmmm... I definately DO!! Oh, and I had to park my car on the grass today because it is street sweeping day so I don't get a ticket and so now my husband is gonna be ticked off since he is trying to grow new grass

roommate-icide

I've been trying really hard not to complain about this, but I think I can either get it out of my system here or commit murder. Two of my roommates are absolutely great. They try to keep the noise down, they share food and stuff with us, they ask if we need anything, etc. The third, the one we share a bathroom with, is the world's biggest jackass. He's already given me several lectures for stupid little things (mostly him being a clean freak) but tonight he freaked out and started screaming at

who am I?

Today I was faced with a situation that I never hope to be in ever again. I was confronted by a friend of a friend asking me to stay away from our mutual friend. apparently this person thinks that I spend too much time with said friend. I was taken aback by this persons request as I havent seen our friend in about a week and before we only saw each other about once a week. It really bothered me and I informed this person that I hadn't seen said friend and that we barely talk now adays.Needless t

my day off...

So, first I want to say that I stayed up LATE last night since the hubby was out with the guys, and I read a great story by a great writer... and loved it!!So on my day off today, besides the usual boring household chores and the new ones that I have acquired since the little bro has left, I went grocery shopping. Now I hate having to do this on my day off since I work in the grocery store I hate having to go when I don't have to. Anyway, I buy so much stuff that a clerk has to help me out to th

*sniffle, sniffle*

So, today was the big day!!! Little brother went off to college... all by himself... five hours away He came to have breakfast with me on my break at work since I had to be there at 3am and he had to leave before I would get home. He was telling me a story about how he and his 'semi-girlfriend/prom date' went out to lunch yesteday and how she was crying, so being the amazingly strong big sis/ mom figure in his life I waited till he drove out of the parking lot and then I had my breakdown...

no clever title here

So you'll all be glad to know that I actually don't have much to complain about today. My bf and I had an argument this morning (big surprise there) but something productive actually came of it, for once. See, he has a college degree, but he works as a cook. This is a long story, but basically he couldn't find anything in the area in his field, and I was still in college, and so we couldn't move. He had a go at graduate school, hated it, and quit, which really confused me because he's a very sma
