Say Anything.
'Say Anything' is a John Cusak/Cameron Crowe 1989 teen flick. ' A noble underachiever and a beautiful valedictorian fall in love the summer before she goes off to college.' This is actually not what this thread is about, but the message is the same.
Actually no it isn't, I just like imdb.com and the title sounded interesting. /snort
This is not necessarily a vent thread - far from it. This is about saying anything - weather, the bird outside your work window, the fundamental differences between Mormons and catholics, how Law and Order Criminal Intent doesn't get the props it deserves, that I always forget whether it's 'it's' or 'its', that my daughter has a beautiful smile and the first guy that breaks her heart - I'm breaking his knees...it's about anything.
So, say anything.
Thursday I took the boy out in the driveway to pull up some weeds. So I grab a handful of weeds, step back to stand up and came right down on one of those nails for wires with the 2 nails on it. It went right thru my shoe and into my foot. So I had to go get a tetanus shot. Mucho fun!
But Yay it's Erik's birthday and tomorrow is Jamie's birthday! Party time!
Jennifer graduated from the 8th grade last week, she's now officially a HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT!! :omg And she's selected her classes for the fall; one is going to be medical terminology. I almost choked! She's all gung-ho for kicking ass and getting as much in the way of scholarships as possible. She wants to be an occupational therapist. :hmm
Here she is at graduation; I can't believe how grown up and gorgeous she is! That's her boyfriend Justin with her; thank goodness they're both going to the same school. Jen's so sweet and thinks the best of everyone, and he'll keep an eye on her (and take apart anyone who even THINKS about hurting her). Sorry about the gigantic size, I haven't been to photoshop recently :rolleyes::
Saturday - woke with a migraine. Prepped and got ready to leave the house by 9... except we had some errands to run - things to pick up, etc - and as my brother and I left the first stop we get a panicked call from my mom, who it turns out poured 2-cycle engine gas mixture into the windshield washer fluid reservoir of her car (since my brother mixed it in a washer fluid container...) so I dropped my brother home to help her fix it, while I ran and got drinks and coffee for the slaves, I mean moving troops.
By the time we get to Sis-Fiance's apartment we discover that they've only emptied about a quarter of his apartment, and the truck is almost full, so then we proceed to re-play Tetris Master and re-pack the truck - AGAIN - and when we left he still hadn't gotten enough of his stuff out of the building.
We get to the house around 2ish? and over the course of the next four hours empty the truck. Mom brought dad over around 3ish to hang. Pizza and sammich for dinner. We ended up leaving around 8:30ish. Got home, ate a small ham and cheese wrap then showered superquick and went to meet m'Lady at the station, whereupon we walked across the street to a diner, then walked back to our cars and headed home.
Sunday - Church. After church we returned the truck to a drop-off. The guy gives us grief because we hadn't rented the truck there and a manager wouldn't be available for an hour or more and we had breakfast reservations, so we left and went to breakfast. We get back to the drop-off and proceed to spend the next 80 minutes or so with my brother on the phone yelling back and forth with 4 different phone reps until he got someone who could semi-sorta-kinda help him... and turned out we needed to drive the truck back to the office it was rented from.
So all said and done it was about a 3.5 hour ordeal to return the truck. We got home around 2:30. I rested for a half hour and then went out food shopping.
Picked up steaks, chops, plain brats, peppers, corn, then proceeded to make dinner. We ate probably around 7. Cleaned up, did cake and "Happy Fathers Day" around 9ish. Feet hurt. Freaking tired.
Fuck Budget RAC.
and holy crap Mileron
All my mules and all that stuff... *poof* gone. :(
I guess on the bright side of things... I get a free server merger and don't have to be on Maelin -whatever server merged with it.
Wow I am so glad I didn't buy the Kindle when I wanted to. O_O
2100+ sq foot houses with pools or condos with utilities paid for like 1500 bucks? Houses that would run for easily 400k out here in the NorthWest are abundant out there. Is it that nice to live out there?

I didn't get a picture because honestly, it just felt like a total intrusion on his privacy, and I was TOTALLY starstruck lol. Don't think anyone else noticed, he was just walking with some guy and holding his daughter. I think he just got done taking her to see Winnie the Pooh and Tigger. How cool is that?!
Of course if I were to try it myself it'd probably give me hives.
they say cologne smells different on every man. I reall really like the deoterant my man wears... Swagger by Old Spice. It's like an Axe commercial in here when he first puts in on..I'm not ashamed to say, i'll huff an armpit or two
Same as Perfume, lotions, body sprays, etc smell different on every woman.
There's a woman in my office who takes suggestions from other women to try out new things... and then over-applies, and ends up getting people sick (allergies, migraines).
When she smells good, she smells decent.
When she smells bad, it's worse than dead fish ass that shat out a skunk on a hot August day in the Sahara.
1.) Monday: She went on vacation to NYC, and tried to save $30 on parking by parking in the street... went out, got hammered, woke up hung over at like 2pm, and text messaged me "I think my fucking car got stolen last night". You think? How can you not know if your car got stolen or not? Did you maybe just misplace it? Turns out it got towed; $185 to get it out of the impound thing, and a $115 parking ticket. Way to save money!
2.) Tuesday: Our father was in the ER for 2 days and then spent another day in a regular room getting tested for all kinds of crap, and our mother was so frantic that if she called my sister to tell her, they would both break down and do whatever emotional shit women do when they get upset, so I had to be the one to call her, and lie to her, and tell her "Nah, it's not that bad"... and she still freaked out anyways.
3.) Wednesday: She comes home to find out that her dog, who is her absolute best friend in the world and means everything to her, escaped from the back yard of the person who was watching him for her the morning before, and hadn't been found yet. And for whatever reason, the dog-sitter's girlfriend had taken off his collar. She has been spam-posting on Facebook that her dog is missing and can anyone help find him etc... I feel really bad :(
Hopefully the old adage about bad things happening in threes turns out to be true, because I think if anything else goes wrong, she will totally lose her shit.
What sucks for me is that I loaned her the money to buy that dog, and she never paid me back. I'm getting a terrible return on my investment :\
