forever friends

Alright, I'll admit it... I'm worried... It seems like I do an awful lot of that lately and while the actual worrying is no fun at all, especially for me cause it's like a million times worse than for a normal person, I realized that it's because I have so many people I care about... that's a GOOD thing right?! I said... RIGHT! I guess I should also admit, since I'm admitting stuff , that I have absolutely wasted the last two days and gotten almost nothing written at all. Partly because I h

testicles on the menu

Hey howdy hey~   Lots of random crap to talk about here...   1. So I had to work a crappy ass shift at work today, but the upside to that was that Rich came and took me out to lunch on my break. We end up at Taco Bell/Pizza Hut to appease the children arguing in the back seat... shrugs indifferently So, we are at Taco Bell and we have just gotten our food and are starting to eat when the couple behind us at the next table start fighting This was not just some quiet discussion, but basical

take your underwear off with my teeth!

Hola amigos!   So I just got home from work and let me tell you what I noticed today... I worked the opening shift as a cashier today, not my normal job, but it's a long story... anyway here it is...   It is unvbelievable how much alcohol I sold this morning. From a little old lady buying a six pack of beer to the guy buying his vodka, I was in awe. I mean I guess it doesn't necesarily mean that they were going to drink it right then, but wow. Seriously, I would venture to say that 1 in ever

mm hmm, I was right about the mayo!

So, cute hubby Rich just walked in here to tell me that the mayo he insisted on buying at Costco SUCKS!!!! It just officially went in the trash, GREAT WAY to SAVE!!   Okay, so on another note.... I am so... proud of myself I guess. See, I got this email from a guy who read my story, and this is what it said:   wow....... um i normally don't do this, well of course i normally dont get into a story like i felt absorbed into your. with one exception. Comicality.......   From the first par

he peed on me!

Okay, where should I even start? I guess the beginning would be a good place   Well, Rich and I were laying in bed last night around 11:30 pm after we had anyway, my son walked into my room. My room is right next to the bathroom. He is just 4 and soooooo cute... but I digress, anyway I was laying on Rich's side of the bed instead of my own, and my son walked over to where I was and pulled his pants down and started peeing!! I pull the blankets up to shield myself from said pee, and Rich i

umm, so... yeah

What a day! and It's only 3:00...   Lemme see here, it all started when I was awakened by my alarm clock at 1:30 am for work! I know that is an insane time to start my day, but it fits my schedule well, so I do it. Anyway, I start work at 3:00 am and it is a long day... retail and holidays together make for a really busy time at work. Anyway, I managed to break 3 nails today at work, and I don't even have long nails. I'm not one of those girly girls who whines when her nail breaks, but three

Survey says...

Okay, here is another one... I don't know why, but I find these things so intruiging, just giving someone the chance to answer about themselves and not being forced to choose an answer that only partially applies to them, like when you are given choices 'a' through 'd' and some sound a little like you but none are really accurate either.   Anyway, have fun, I did   TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF - The Survey   Name: Vivian, Viv, Vivy (to Jon), Vivian!

had a great day today... i'm happy, yay!

Okay, so my day started early as usual, and when I say early I mean 1:30 am, which is when I get up for work, ugh. Anyway I went to check my schedule for next week, which is the same every week anyway, same days and shifts for over a year now, and it is all screwed up for next week. I'm not scheduled to do the job I always do and so I immediately look to see who is scheduled instead... anyway I figure I'll wait and ask the girl I work with when she finally rolls out of bed and joins me at 6:00

the BIG news! yay...

Okay, so some of you may remember me previously thanking certain people for their help on this 'thing' I was working on...   I will say today, for the record that I am writing a story... Yay! (I hope anyway)   I will be posting it on www.nifty.org sometime this week for anyone who is interested in reading it. It's called 'From Behind Those Eyes' and will most likely be in the High School section. I have heard it's good but then again, the guys who are telling me that know I WILL kick som

sigh, besides, who needs that much mayo?

Okay, so let me just start by saying that I have just finished eating a bag of yummy cheese popcorn for breakfast   So yesterday was Sunday and I usually try to go grocery shopping on Sundays because even though I work in the grocery store when I get off work, no one is here to help carry in all the groceries I just spent an hour shopping for, so I wait and get help on when they are home, even if it means I am there on my day off!   Well, Rich has 'decided' that it would be 'better' and 'ch

giving myself a BIG pat on the back...

Well, what an utterly exhausting and annoying day I had, well only a few parts of it, but still....   So I had to be at work at 3 am again for the third day in a row, just like every week, so I am used to being completely delerious by Saturday, but today in particular, I had to take my kids to a birthday party after I finished my 8 hour shift. I couldn't say no, I mean this girl and my daughter have been friends since preschool so for about 8 years now.   Anyway, the mom, who drives me abso

pride! and thank you's...

Wow, so where to start?   Well, I got an email from my little brother who went off to college today. It made me smile, alot! Here is an excerpt:   Hey there brother. Hello there sister. Just thought I'd drop in and say hello. Plus, I thought I'd give you an update on my schooling. I don't have very many set grades yet but I just got my first math test back (we took it yesterday) and it had 7 questions worth 10 points each (with different values for the different parts of the question).

ok, it's time...

Well, I guess it's time to update since I am almost on page two...So, first, and definately most importantly, thanks to my sweetie and his sweetie (sorry I'm still workin on it C) for listening and for putting yourselves through the same thing I went through. That is devotion and true caring, and you will never know how much that means to me, words will never be able to describe how much you both mean to me. I will take that hug anytime, any place sweetie, I will hold you to it. And to my other

wear their hearts on their sleeves...

Hi All, So, ok, lots going on here...1. Kids birthday party is tomorrow and I am sick with a bad cold :wacko: ... I usually make their birthday cake at home and decorate it since I used to be a cake decorator and I make lots of food. I have that Italian trait I guess, the need to way overcook and to feed everyone. So, instead I am buying a cake from my store and not cooking an insane amount of food, but I am feeling guilty about it.2. Tony (little brother who is off to college) is home for the

HOT?

***OK-Warning... Straight Sex Story Here...****So, on Sunday it was my day off. Since the three days before I have to get up so freakin' early for work that I only get 3 hours sleep each night I usually try to sleep in. I woke up around 10 and was cuddling with Rich, and eventually it turned into more, but not much more... see he got what he wanted from me, but then totally left me wanting more. He promises to make it up to me that night after the kids were in bed. Well, lets just say that n

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

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

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

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

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

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

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...

on your ass...

So, today as my husband was leaving for work he comes back in the house to tell me that I have to take him to work because he has a flat tire and doesn't have time to fix it before work. This means that I also then have to drive back at lunch time to take him to get some lunch since he is without a car and then go back when he gets off work and bring him home. Anyway, while we are driving back from lunch, I pull up behind this truck at the light and he has bumper stickers all over his rusty old

my proudest moment as a parent... again

For those of you who have kids, let me ask you this. Have you ever had one of those days where your kid does or says something so unbelievably out there that you are wondering if they have learned ANYTHING from you EVER? Well, my daughter, almost 10 and in the fifth grade, yesterday is telling me a story about how she and her dad were at the grocery store and in the checkout line she saw a magazine cover with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie on it. She proceeds to tell me that Angelina stole Brad fr
