Okay, well not in that order exactly... but it sounded better. Actually, I came, I broke my panties, THEN I chatted... and had SUCH a great time! So... thanks you guys! It was awesome! So many of you showed up and I am still so surprised about that, I'll admit. Kevin AFF, Kevin Bard, Krista, Conner, Drew, Justin, Natey, Robbee, Grant, James, Tony, Steve, CJ, Kurtie, Joey, I'm sure there are more that I am so... horribly forgetting so I'll apologize for that now. But my point was.... OMG! you guy
So hey there...
I have a funny story! At work on tuesday I had to write this proposal and after I spent two hours researching and answering all the questions and writing it, I took it to my boss for approval. He started reading it and said, "This is a little over the top. Have you ever thought about quitting and becoming a writer?" So I giggled and said, "Yeah, actually I have!" But I'll probably never be that brave ,plus I seem to be a glutton for punishment.
Still dealing with some fa
Okay so I'll go ahead and give you all fair warning now... I have had a crap week and this will probably be a crap blog... you know, Viv, whining and complaining, only in the end to realize she's being dumb and ungrateful... so if you choose to stay and read... I won't be held responsible
So let's see...
We'll start with Thursday... My daughter turned 11 Happy Birthday Punkin! I suggested to Rich that since we aren't having the kids birthday parties for a few weeks still, that we take
The answer to that, my friends, is... a) I'm a grown up b ) I'm a mom c) I'm a wife d) I'm a control freak e) All of the above... If you guessed 'e' folks... you would be correct. :wacko:
But in bigger and better news... It's my baby's birthday today! So that means that eleven years ago today... I was having my first baby and... trying not to die, almost literally... But, she's eleven today, obviously, and as much as I whine about her attitude and her... normal young girl behavior, she is
Okay so on the agenda for this 99th blog...
One cute as hell story!
One request from me to my friends.
Kevin - Bardeara's nickname.
Benny taught me something new!
... and stuff
So this blog begins one day driving down the freeway for the ninety-millionth time today with my son in the back seat and he says to me, "I love you Mom." So I reply, "I love you too!" To which he replies, "I love you three," and before you know it I am saying, "I love you one hundred!" So, the n
I don't know if there is a 'blog anniversary' but if there is... Happy 1 Year Anniversary to... me One year ago today, I wrote and posted my first blog and since then... 97 blogs later I've found it to be an outlet, a fun way to communicate, a great way to discuss things, to tell stories, and to get feedback from people about all kinds of things... so I want to say thanks to everyone who has taken the time to ever read, write, respond, mention, etc... to me about it because I really appreciate
So we'll try it again... although maybe it's cause I am SO damn sick I have no patience to concentrate on anything except stopping my head from exploding
Called the DMV :wacko: and it seems that even though they tell us to wait 6 weeks before even attempting to talk to a human, it seems they have known since week 2 that I never got my new liscence and so now I have an appointment there today at 3:45 to tell them to resend it to me since I never got it, although they already f**king know tha
Quick style blogging today
I'm sick
I just got a flat tire on the freeway on my way home from taking Rich to work at 8 am in my pajamas with both kids in the car and Tony came to rescue me
I have to go get a new tire now... adds that to huge and still growing list of crap to get done today :wacko:
Also have to call the DMV to find out why I STILL don't have my new drivers lisence after I renewed it online over 6 weeks ago
My son starts Kindergarten on Wednesday and we H
Rich gives REALLY great hugs! Just thought you might all like to know that... I think it must have something to do with how much bigger he is than me and how I can just melt and hide and be totally consumed by him... sigh...
I am actually gonna write today! I promised myself... so this is gonna be short, kinda like me... well actually, just like me
So after Davey posted that piece he found about the twin flames I sat in my car at work and wrote him a sappy message... but it really i
So yeah... did you know that what they put into the pink lemonade to make it pink is actually grape juice? I find this funny cause I LOVE pink lemonade and I really don't like grape juice at all... weird huh?
So, I can't go into details here... so don't even ask... but... I LOVE Rich! I mean, I know you already knew that... and so did I for that matter... but he did something so sweet for me and it has shown me something and made me smile like crazy! So, thanks babe! I love you!
So it

Okay so I had a dentist appointment this morning and since Rich's car has taken up permanent residence in our driveway I had to drive him to work and then go to the dentist. Well I was like WAY early for my appointment so I thought I would stop at the Borders book store but it didn't open till 9 am so I figured... wtf? and went early to my appointment. I walked in and the dentist took me right away and gets me all in his chair with the little bib thingy on and then he grabs this scary like huge

Okay so originally I was going to write this blog all in honor of my angel because today was, in fact, his birthday but, since I suck SO DAMN much, I didn't even know it was today till he mentioned it in some silly off the wall way. See I told him Rich was out picking up some chinese food for dinner and he said... Oh! Chinese, in celebration of my birthday!? To which you can imagine I was like Wait JUST one minute!
I knew it was coming for a couple weeks now, I just didn't know the exact
What's that all about? Davey sent me this video of this really funny comedian, Peter Kay, and those are a couple of the lines I really loved, the dude was pretty funny!

I have a pretty crappy job and it doesn't pay horribly and almost anyone could do it, but still every day I show up, on time, and do my best and go above and beyond cause I take pride in my work. I like feeling like I am valuable and needed. So I was off work Mond
So here is a part of a chat I had with Rich this morning while he was at work...

Viv: awwwwwwwwwww, i'm so sorry
What an eventful few days...!
So I got this really snazzy orange card in the mail that said I have a package to pick up at the post office from Davey but I couldn't go get it cause Rich had my car so I went the next morning and picked it up. He made me promise not to look at the bottom of the package because the customs form was there and you have to list what is in the package and then I would know what my present is. I didn't peek! I swear! The instructions were to take the present out
Holy crap it's HOT! It was like 97 here today in sunny southern California. It's 10:30 pm now and it is currently 75 degrees...
What I love about the heat... I don't have to wear a sweater everyday, boys wear less clothes my feet stay warm in my flip flops...
What I don't love about the heat... man boobs hanging out of tank tops
Okay so I just have to get this off my chest and be done with it... This morning Rich and I stayed in bed for quite a while and well, I'm pretty sure yo
Okay quick recap of my day here... I woke up at 7 am and got dressed and followed Rich and his broken car to the mechanics where he dropped it off to have the transmission rebuilt, and they said we could pick it up two weeks from now and $1000 later Then I drove him to work and he was actually early for the first time in forever Drove home, packed up the box to send to Davey and Chris for my darlin's birthday! Showered, and took the kids to the dentist for our six month cleaning and check-ups
Okay... so the present is in the mail... and professionally gift wrapped... and I have sworn that I won't look at the customs form on the back of the box... and I'm sure that tomorrow I will have to swear to wait till my birthday to open it too. But I can't wait sweetie
So I had this interesting talk with my angel today and he was helping me, since I am computer challenged, trying to figure out why my microphone on my headphones wouldn't work. I told him I stick the pink plug thingy into
