Waiting for Tax Refunds.

Waiting for them to accept her for the position.
Waiting for Mom's stuff to finish up, so she can get on with things.
Waiting for the chance to get the hell outta here.
Waiting for my bandmates to catch up with me, so we'll be ready for our 2 gigs, this month.

When the children get in from school we are heading across to Toys R Us to pick up some birthday presents for this weekend. Elizabeth is going to a party on Saturday and another one on Sunday! Also need to swap one of James's presents. Someone bought him some Duplo so we are going to swap it for some Lego Mars Mission I think.

I spent from 3:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. last night in the ER. :( We had gone out to get something to eat when my hubby's paycheck was automatically deposited last night at midnight (well didn't get out out until 1:30, but I digress). Then we went to Wal-Mart (which is open 24-hours) to stock up on some water and things because we were supposed to get lots of snow on top of the ice we already had. The plan was to just stay in and hibernate this weekend. I got so dizzy at Wally-Mart twice that I just had to sit down on the floor. My head was spinning. It calmed down after I sat for awhile. The employees at the store (and naturally my hubby) were really concerned. My hubby insisted we go to the emergency room (which was only two blocks away) in case I was having a heart attack. They did two EKGs on me and X-rays and an I.V., but didn't find anything wrong with me. They just decided I was dehydrated. Even my sugar was good. We came home and slept some then went out to eat with my hubby's friend at Qdoba Mexican grill. It was tasty (and pretty cheap and fast for being a packed Friday night at the mall). I came home and slept some more and now I'm awake. And those are the thrilling tales of bookmistress4ever. ;D

I was hoping that they would postpone it but we haven't heard anything about it yet. We did email them but there may not be anyone around to get the email today. If they do have it, I'm sure there won't be too many people there because of the roads-which is a shame. It is an issue that both of us feel is worth pursuing. Yeah, I'm going to get a little political here. I don't understand how two men or two women getting married will have any effect on my marriage to Carlos? That argument never made any sense to me.

So many people going to sporting events. I too will be attending a game tonight. The Boy and I are
going to a hockey game tonight. The Flyers are playing the Ducks. We have Club Box seats, I don't
know how we'll fit in with the corporate types though, The Boy and I are true Philadelphia fans. ;)

I wish I had been home to log on before you left (as I am sure you have by now). A member of the Ducks was a star at the university where I work---Chris Kunitz. He scored in the last game of the Cup, I believe. It was a really big deal here because every player got the Stanley Cup for 24 hrs and he used part of his to bring it back to Ferris before taking it home to Saskatchewan. Crowds starting lining up at the hockey rink the night before. :)

As for me, pretty good weekend, so far. Got a lot done Friday night, went to a baby shower this evening, and have Micah's Superbowl party tomorrow. I got the eggs boiled and in the fridge to devil them tomorrow, got cucumbers and green peppers cut up, so tomorrow just have to finish the eggs, get the meatballs going in one crockpot, get the lil smokies going in her football crockpot and make the beef dip she likes. I was bad (eating) at the shower today, so I can't be as bad as I was going to be tomorrow. I might still work out tonight before bed, but I will definitely do it tomorrow before we have to start getting stuff ready. :) I've lost almost 8 pounds since Jan 11.

A friend of mine and I took the short ones to the Hannah Montana 3D concert/movie today. They had a separate party going on that the kids went to as well. The DJ said everyone who came down to dance got a poster. Well, our girls went down and they never got one. My friend went down to see if she could get one for them and the guy blew her off. If you aren't going to give every kid a poster, don't say you will. They made my kid cry and that made me a mad mommy. >:(

Luckily, there was a radio station table with a spinning wheel and they gave the girls each a poster. Still, don't make my baby cry, not cool.
I hear ya Dagwood, I would have been pissed too. don't promise the kids something and then not come through without a really really good excuse, and then their beating will only be less severe. glad to hear the other radio station came through for the kids. Hannah Montana hysteria, it's crazy :D

...today was an excellent day, a long day, a busy day, a really fun day & now we're home, relaxing from all the events. I had to get up & be at our church at 9am to setup the rooms for the little ones. at noon about 100 of us piled into 2 school buses & went to UC Berkeley to watch the California Golden Bears women's basketball team play USC Trojans. The Bears won in overtime. it was awesome. I was yelling at the cheater referee to call the game fairly, & yelled "that's a horrible call ref" so loud Diane looked at me kinda scared like I was going crazy, but he was just pissing me off as he was only calling fouls on the Bears, & not the Trojans. after the game, we got to go hang out with the coach & one of her players. They spoke to our group & shared of their faith. next was pizza. Then buses took us back to church & they needed help setting up the musicians stage area so Diane & me got to be roadies for an hour, & then we went over to catch the tail end of a graduation party for a friend that just finished Police Academy. Starting Monday he will be a new San Francisco police officer. They had some kickass BBQ chicken & beef brisket from the best local bbq joint around. that's about it. 8)

Tonight made me realize just why I hate drunk rednecks.

My Karaoke session went OK, until the granddaddy of all bar brawls erupted.
The only places something DIDN'T happen was behind the bar, and the back room.

I was busy trying to protect my equipment, shepherding innocents away from the brawl when it spilled into my area, and helping spearate a 12-or-13 person dogpile, because the bouncer couldn't do it alone.

What a damn mess.....

I nearly got a speaker damaged, and someone stepped on my foot.
Knowing the delicacies of my feet- that rather has me bothered.

I'll assess the damage in the morning.

Yesterday Elizabeth went to a friends house for a party. She came home quite upset because she felt left out of things some of the time. Also when the other girls were joking around they made Elizabeth feel bad when she joined in - implying that she was being rude for saying similar stuff to what they were. She felt like she was butting in and wasn't really wanted.

She started crying at bedtime saying she wanted to go back to England.

How old is your daughter? She may just have to play through the pain, so to speak...I came to America speaking poor English as well, and what English I spoke was with a British accent. I eventually went to California Standard English and then I was fine after that, but I never remembered kids being THAT cruel...I was like 7 then.

She probably doesn't have to change her accent or anything, but all it really takes is one good friend and then she'll be fine. I'd encourage her to keep trying to connect so she can find that one good friend, and more doors will open for her.

Elizabeth is nine.

I'm not sure that it was a deliberate, more just people being unthinking. The other girls have all been friends since Kindergarden so it's definitely hard to break into a close-knit group like that. I thought that she had really made friends with them all. :-\\

Well, maybe she can bring something unique into their little group, something distinctly British that would be cool for the other girls to learn about. Gotta keep trying :)

Feeling stressy about this damn phone thing. I'm worried they won't be able to fix it because the last guy who came out had no idea what was wrong after 2 and a half hours and on top of that I'm worried about a huge bill i can't pay. I know there is no point stressing until the man comes out and looks at it but I can't help it. :-\\

Do you have a cordless phone? When we lived in Indiana, our phone lines got messed up, and for some reason after that, we couldn't use cordless phones. They had to be corded. It's a pain in the ass, but if you try a corded phone and it works, that would be your best bet until you can get the money together to pay those ridiculous fees.

It might be worth looking to see if you can get compensation for this. Not making an appointment was one of the conditions I think.

I once waited in all day for them (BT) to turn up and then they totally denied ever making the appointment. Said they would come out after we did some basic checks they'd told us to do. which they never ever mentioned before!

In the UK (and elsewhere? ??? ) it is called Shrove Tuesday. Traditionally a day to eat all the forbidden foods before Lent starts; it has somehow evolved into eating pancakes :-\\ Anyway we will be eating pancakes for dessert tonight so that is celebrating it in a small way!

Talked to my dad & a sister (not one who lives in Tulsa). Here is the latest. Apparently, one of my sisters who lives in Tulsa asked my grandmother if she wants to live and the one word she managed to say was "Home". My dad took that to mean that she wants to fight but my sister isn't too sure. Whether that means she wants to fight or go home to die is not clear but what is clear is she wants to leave the hospital. Hopefully, she will be able to do that in a day or two. The fact that she is 99 years old, means that the hospital isn't really doing too much for her. And we don't know how much her Medicare will pay. We all think she will be better off once she is out of the hospital. The retirement community where she lives has a nursing facility that will give her better care. We want to get her there as soon as possible. Dad has been trying to get a hold of Grandma's doctor all it but has been playing phone tag with her. He doesn't think he will be able to talk to her today. I'm sure we will know more once he talks to the doc. That is the latest.

And for the past twelve years, it has been a tradition for me to get Valentine chocolates from See's, and I have been handing them out to my lady friends at school. (If the 14th falls on a weekend day--which it hasn't since '04--- then I start handing 'em out a day or two before.) They are always happy to get chocs from me. In fact, I bought some yesterday, so now I'm all set!

Well, there is a shopping mall near CSUN, but it's about a mile or so away. In fact, I just went over there yesterday afternoon to buy my chocolate hearts, since there was a See's at that mall.
There isn't a golf course, though. The nearest one to CSUN is about two or three miles to the east...and I had to go over there in December 2004 for my "final" in the golf class that I took then.

I could also just go to the library and study...or do research for an upcoming paper that I have for one of my classes.

I will try and make some progress on making curtains for the family room today. Last time I tried something went wrong with my machine; hope I've fixed it now.

Curtains are about the only thing I can sew. I made some for the kitchen a couple months ago. Sewing in a straight line, that's about my speed.

As for me, I've had a stiff neck for two days. I can barely turn my head. I tried a pain patch but I must be allergic to it because it made me all itchy. :-\\

ABC news are a bunch of idiots. They just had the Romney press conference. Regular programming is back on, 10 minutes later ABC breaks in to say that they just learned Romney is suspending his campaign. You think? Did you not just watch the press conference that you broadcast 10 minutes ago? ::)

Also sometimes pharmacies have flu shots that you can pay like $10 for. I think usually in November they give them out. It's a vaccine to help you not get the flu, but really, I think it's a mild flu bug that they give you to help build your immune system.

Teela has a dental appointment on Monday, and they're doing nitrous on her (fortunately).

So have I...but there'll be no nitrous for me. Just some local anaesthetics with a syringe... Ah well, it's only a small cavity (I hope). :-\\

Just had a shower after coming in from the garden. I have a feeling I will be stiff and aching tomorrow!

I dug the veggie patch as planned and about two thirds of the rest of the garden is done also, all tidy and ready for spring! :) If the weather is like this on wednesday when I have a half day I'll finish the rest and do the front garden.

I cleaned the crap out of my kitchen today. I am preparing to do an overhaul of my house. Toss 90% of my crap, paint and get new carpets. I am sick of clutter. Now to decide colors. :-\\

That is my New Year's resolution-that I'm sort of keeping up with. I'm trying to do an overhaul of this house. I started in the kitchen-which I hate to admit that I haven't really cleaned in YEARS. I have shelves that have a bunch of knickknacks on that were SOOOOO covered in smoke. :-\\ I got most of that already but it still needs some work. I also did the area above the stove that was just covered in grease 8-P There is so much more to do in that room and of course it needs to be painted.

We did just finished up the bathroom (the new floor and painting) but that room also needs some work. The guy did a beautiful job on the floor but he left white dust EVERYWHERE. We have a cabinet that has at lot of shelves with a lot of "stuff" on all of them. I put a bunch of stuff on those shelves thinking they would be out of the way. Little did I know, he was going to take the doors off of the cabinet so all the shelves were exposed and yes-EVERYTHING on all of the shelves are covered in white dust. :-\\ So that is a good excuse to go through them and throw out a bunch of "stuff" (like meds that have expiration date going back prior to the Civil War. :o :o :o )

I have been doing a little here and a little there. Of course by the time I am done, I'm going to have to start all over again. lol

We have a memorial service to go to today for a former colleague of Carlos and a former teacher of mine. I didn't even like this woman but her partner (also a former colleague/teacher) called us and asked us personally to be there. (Of course I don't really like this woman either-in fact, she was the WORSE teacher I EVER had). But both Carlos & I feel that we should go to pay our respects.

I would say that if you were requested to be there, it means one of two things:

-Either this person thought well of at least one of you, or.........
-She has the hots for you, Cat, and wants to scope your coulo.

In either case, you're doing the right thing, by attending.

I wouldn't be a bit surprised if she did have the hots for me. 8-P It's not that I have anything against lesbians, the thought does not repulse me at all-but the thought of HER. EEEEWWWWWWWWW!!!! But, I must admit that I do feel bad for her losing her partner. I wouldn't want to wish that on anyone.

We went to her (the one who called to ask us to attend) retirement ceremony last year and they talked about how such a great teacher she was and I turned to Carlos and asked, "Who are they talking about? Definitely NOT her." I'm sure this memorial service is going to be the same thing-talk about how great this woman was and I don't agree. I asked Carlos if he liked her (the one who died), and he said that he respected her.

Melissa's interview was today.....

They told her they had 30 minutes slotted for her, and ended up talking with her for 1 1/2 hours.
They mentioned a physical, to make sure she passed the physical requirements of the job.
She says she will know by Wednesday, if she has the job.

Mom also went to Court, and ended up agreeing to a tentative settlement.
Looking at roughly 1/3 of what she could have gotten total.
I guess she's just tired of having to go to Court, and facing the jackass who thinks he's above Man's Laws.

So, I guess you could say things are looking up.

It's so strange, the way things turn out.....

I just got off the phone with my late band's Bassist, Niobel.
In essence, he has asked me if I would not only work with other more serious musicians, but also act in a Managerial position.

He has always been on the same page as I, when it came to gigging & moving forward.
He has expressed frustration, as well as understanding the professional aspects of the business.
Niobel has many musician connections, and he recognizes my efforts to get the band more organized.

I could be off-base, but I know I'm ready to get to the "big time", and so is he.
The more musicians we find with the same drive, the quicker "The Legion Project" will be formed and running.

In other news, we didn't get the foot of snow they were predicting last night (so that's good) but the roads are wet and slushy and if it gets any colder tonight will be a sheet of ice. So we went grocery shopping so we can hibernate until spring. lol Our downstairs neighbor (who is 15) knocked on our door this afternoon before we went to the store and asked if we had any odd jobs for him to earn money. Money is so hard to come by nowadays, especially if you aren't even old enough to work at McDonalds. So we paid him $5 to clear off the car windows while we finished getting ready to go out. Got downstairs, and he had cleared off the wrong car (our neighbor's blue van instead of ours.) ;D We thanked him anyways, and just let him keep the money and cleared off our car after he went back inside. It was the thought that counts. We thought it was funny.

Howard, my main man-

Mike, Quirky and the Riceman are dead-on.

While this groove will hurt a little, you will find that there are better babes out there.
Not all of them are materialistic. Some of them are looking for men who are hard-working, have a good personality, and know the real deal is on the inside.

Plus.....some of them turn out to be sabanas caliente!
It's about you getting what's called "the attitude", according to Mike Damone in "Fast Times @ Ridgemont High":

"You gotta show her that it doesn't matter whether she comes, stays, lays or prays.
Whatever happens, your toes are still tappin'. And when you got that, then you got the attitude."

You will find a gal who is waiting for a guy like you.
Find some social outlets, and make a general re-entry into the dating scene....when you're ready.
Don't feel like you have to rush it, though. Just take it at Howard's pace.
Best of luck in your fox-hunting.

Howard, I am truly sorry about this but I think you are better off. From what you have told us, she really didn't love you. If she did, how much $$$ you made would not have been an issue. From you have told us, she treated you very poorly. I'm sure there is a woman out there who will love you, not for how much $$$ you make but for who you are. It is really Robin's loss. I hope you won't pine over her because she really isn't worth it.

On the other hand...It doesn't really surprise me your relationship has ended. It surprises me more that it lasted for 3½ years... From what I've read about it, it seemed to me that you were giving and Robin only taking. That's not a solid basis for any kind of relationship, so this was bound to happen sooner or later. And like others have said before me: keep the faith. There will be better times. Maybe being single for a while isn't such a bad thing...gives you more time and space to keep working on yourself. Plus: it saves you some more money (you don't have to spend it on a girl now)... (Sound advice from a man without experience! ;D)

Yeah, while it may be hard to believe, there might just be an applicant who was ever so slightly more qualified than she was...happens to me a lot, but the nice thing is that the interviewers always either called or e-mailed me to tell me why I wasn't chosen, and I didn't hold any grudges because I'm just not that awesome :D

Hmmm....I've noticed something as of late. Doesn't it seem like food allergies are more prevalent nowadays? I always hear about them, and a blog that I read talks about them because the blog writer has celiac disease and her kids are allergic to a bunch of things as well.

It does. I first heard about celiac disease two years ago, now it seems like almost everyone has it. I wonder if they really are more prevalent or are they just getting more press.

Those allergies are know as "delayed type hypersensitivities" and probably happen because people have been using all kinds of anti-bacterial and anti-viral soaps with their kids and not letting the kids eat enough dirt. Therefore the kids aren't getting a steady dose of antigen to stimulate their immune systems and thus, while they are still able to fend off diseases like the common cold because of vaccines, they are ironically unable to recognize the evil peanut or coconut as a benign antigen :P

^ Actually it's just a regular hypersensitivity...depending on the kid, they'll either get hives or they might go into full blown anaphylactic shock. Delayed Type is Type IV which is totally wonky. This Wiki article sorta explains it:

I've heard that about the anti-bacterial soaps and stuff. I think it is much better to let your kids get their hands dirty. You have to build up a defense to germs and stuff.

Subject: Re: Random feel any way thread for Feblueberry

Written By: Rice_Cube on 02/13/08 at 10:02 pm

It's more than just building up a defense against germs, you pretty much have to allow your kids to be exposed to everything unless it will obviously scald off their skin or rip their insides out :P That way their immune system can be fine-tuned to what is truly evil and what is just food.

Howard, I am truly sorry about this but I think you are better off. From what you have told us, she really didn't love you. If she did, how much $$$ you made would not have been an issue. From you have told us, she treated you very poorly. I'm sure there is a woman out there who will love you, not for how much $$$ you make but for who you are. It is really Robin's loss. I hope you won't pine over her because she really isn't worth it.

Howard, I too am sorry to hear this. I know you put a lot of time and effort in this thing to work, and it must hurt like hell losing what seemed to be the girl of your dreams. :(
On the other hand...It doesn't really surprise me your relationship has ended. It surprises me more that it lasted for 3½ years... From what I've read about it, it seemed to me that you were giving and Robin only taking. That's not a solid basis for any kind of relationship, so this was bound to happen sooner or later. And like others have said before me: keep the faith. There will be better times. Maybe being single for a while isn't such a bad thing...gives you more time and space to keep working on yourself. Plus: it saves you some more money (you don't have to spend it on a girl now)... (Sound advice from a man without experience! ;D)

Anyway...Take care of yourself. We're here if you need someone to talk to. :)

Thanks Henk.It seems like from all the relationships I've had almost both of them treated me like they were my Mother and putting demands and expectations on me.Like one wanted a wedding ring after 5 years and Robin wanted to create a life.It's hard to live up to them and I couldn't do it. :-\\

we just got home about an hour ago at 12:40am, from making an emergency run to San Jose to bring Julie home from the dorm as she has been sick all week and didn't feel well enough to go to school and wanted to come home to rest. so she'll miss school tomorrow but has friends that will provide class notes for her, and hopefully she'll be well by Monday. I haven't been sick since May of last year, & am feeling a little something in my throat, perhaps the begining of a cold. I'll be making a pot of jook (chinese turkey & rice porridge soup) this weekend.it seems to have some amazing healing properties. :)

Awww, being away from home and sick is no fun. Good that she gets to come home and let mom and dad take care of her for awhile. The flu has been running rampant around here for a month. Hope she gets to feeling better soon.

Welcome to the club. Yeah, going to the chiropractor does help me but unfortunately it is temporary. Both Carlos & I go every 6 weeks. His youngest daughter thinks chiropractors are "evil". She prefers acupuncture and claims that it is not temporary like going to a chiropractor is. I can't vouch for that because I have never had acupuncture.

No it really isn't that bad. Our biggest "sin" if it were, is that we have boxes of things piled in corners, and crates full of books. We both love to read and have just collected more books then we got rid of. Whenever his friends come over (usually on Sundays), I always make sure any area that they will be in (they play games at the dining room table) and the bathroom is spotless. We have rented a storage closet that is in our building AND a lockable car garage that we'll also use as storage when the weather gets warmer, so that we'll be able to store things that aren't being used currently there (at least until we decide what to get rid of altogether.)
The plan is selling alot of books on e-bay, but we just haven't made the effort to list much yet. Irregardless, yes, my husband and I both agreed that should this guy come back and apologize or want to be a part of the group of friends that plays games on Sundays with my husband's other friends...even if he apologizes, he will not be welcome back. I was just really disappointed in the guy, we've all been friends for a couple years and we've even taken his family (wife and two kids) to the full-price movies a couple times when we had the money. I'm not saying that that should buy us some loyalty, but anyways...just a little shocked about this guy's total 180 in attitude. Oh well. His loss. I guarantee it, because our apartment (while small) will eventually be put into order and we can be loyal and generous to our friends if ever anybody needs us for anything at all.

It's hard enough making friends in this world and to lose ones that you thought were good ones is a bit devastating. Heck with him! >:(

So you're essentially like us. We have tons of those clear plastic containers stacked around with all manner of things. I figure as long as those are in some semblance of order and everything is picked up, there is no problem. Bah. Tell him to stuff it if he comes to apologize. Butthead.

If you want to get rid of a ton of books, you should see if there are some secondhand bookstores around that would buy them. That would probably be easier than trying to unload them on eBay, especially because they're messing with the seller's rights and fees. :)

Right now I might not date for a while,I'm going to keep this job whether she's with me or not,She's the one who gave me the will to work and I'm proud of it.Everything was going so well when I got the Pathmark job but she wanted more but couldn't give her any more than just love.I couldn't live up to her expectations.She wanted someone to take care of her and I was hoping that I would be the one and I guess I wasn't.Her And I had a good time but financially,We had problems along the way.That's about all I have to say,Thanks. :)

Well it seems she has left you better than she found you, but you deserve credit for the hard work it took to get where you are. I think we are all very proud that you are taking this well and not giving up on yourself. Keep your options open, there is someone out there who is right for you.

Thanks Danoota,Thank You so much.I'll think about what I want to do as for dating is concerned,I'm just torn. :-\\ :(

Patty- About your husband's "friend"- If that's the way he feels, then you're better off without him, anyway. People like that are sponges- they take-take-take, and drain others of their love, trust & emotions. And as for the books- PM me, if you wish to send a list. Always looking to extend my library!

Gissie- Good luck with your autograph session! Would that I could be there, with ya....(Doctor Who fanatic, here....duh!...) ;)

Howard- Take some time for yourself, and get yourself back on an even keel.
Don't be in too big a rush to rebound. Go enjoy a concert. Take a walk in the Park. Smile at a good looking woman, and admire her legs- or I guess in your case, armpits. (Whatever floats yer pontoon)
There are good women everywhere, out here. Just gotta know where to look.

So Jason finally got the rest of his birthday money from my mom (stupid US Postal service...it only came a WEEK late ::)), and we are debating on letting him get a small pet (the ratdog is supposed to be his dog, but the dog is attached to me and Rice). Fish are out of the question because we usually travel in the summer, so that would pose a problem. No cats because I'm allergic to them. So it's narrowed down to a hamster, a rat, a mouse, a guinea pig, or a turtle. Hamsters are kinda iffy because some of them are really mean. Rats are pretty clean and tame if you get a female. I think mice are too small for him. Turtles are pretty neat, but I'm going to have to teach him that he MUST wash his hands after playing with him or everytime he touches the turtle (they transfer salmonella or something). Guinea pigs stink.

In all honesty, the boy really wants a snake, but 1. everyone except the boy and I are REALLY opposed to that and 2. they're kind of expensive. Once you get the snake, the tank, and all the other stuff, including the mice to feed it...yeah, it adds up.

I think we'll just take him to Best Buy instead and let him get a DVD or something. ;D

No to the turtle. It is a nice thought, but they do carry salmonella and you don't really want to have to deal with that. Kids always mean to wash their hands, but do you want to take that risk?

Tomorrow we leave for Key Largo(Florida). Today I am getting us and the house ready. We will be back next Friday. Last night I went online to double check the reservations at the hotel and(this is great!) I noticed the hotel rates had fallen dramatically. I canceled my one bedroom efficiency and re-booked a 2 bedroom, balcony, kitchen, ocean view, jacuzzi suite for less money than the one bedroom, no view, I started with. It is one of those condo complexes that rents out for the owners and they are having a hell of a time because a lot of people just aren't taking vacations this year. If I hadn't checked I probably would have been none the wiser, bless the internet. After the price gouging of the past few years this is gonna be nice. We are taking the train down and back, so no worries about being stuck at the airport. Hopefully no one comes down with anything and I get to feel the heat on my back. That is what it is all about :)

However, I come back to my friends with exciting news. Not only has Micah been accepted to Ferris (where I work), but today she got her acceptance letter from Cedar Crest College in Allentown, PA. While I still don't know if she will be able to attend, it is wonderful to know that she has been accepted at a different school than the one she has grown up with. We are still waiting to hear from Loyola University Chicago, which is her first choice. The best thing about Cedar Crest (besides being an all girls school) is that it has a Forensic Science program with a national reputation.

I'm looking forward to catching up on everyone's news. Cat, I just sent you a PM about your loss, about which I am very sorry.

I've been wanting to post her more often, but for some reason I just never can put myself to it.... :-[
Here's an update of some sort.

Last Thursday, the choir I sing in contributed to a combined small concert/sing in in a local church. We sang 7 songs (including "King All-Glorious"), and I think we did pretty well. :) I hope our conductor feels the same way.
There's a recording of the entire meeting available via a website, but it's a bit complicated... :-\\ PM for details, in case you're interested.

Also on Thursday, the tombstone for my mother's grave has been put up. I haven't had a chance to go and see it, but I have seen a picture of it. It looks very... serene, I guess.

Saturday we (my brother, my sister and I) went hiking again. We try to do this as often as we can, if the weather allows. It gives us a bit of exercise and a chance to take some pictures. Usually, our hikes are no longer than 5 to 6 miles (we're not that well trained...) and this one was no exception. It was a nice hike, but unfortunately it was cold and windy at some stretches...reminded us of the fact that it's still only February. You'll have to wait for the pictures, 'cause I (still) don't have a digital camera... ;)

This morning in church, I bumped into an old schoolmate (or better: he bumped into me). I hadn't seen or spoken him in nearly 30 years... Still, he recognized me immediately. No, that's not entirely true: he mistook me for my younger brother. But since we're much alike, I didn't really mind. Turns out he's acquainted with, and living in the same street as one of my colleagues...
It was fun talking to him after all these years...brings back memories. :)

Hubby's friends are over today to play some role-playing games so I am trying to stay out of the way (not that they ever say that I *am* in the way). I think I stirred up some dust or perhaps the mold outside in the forest by my window is starting to really bother my allergies. I am coughing (it's a dry cough though). My head feels a bit like it's underwater, so it's probably sinus (again). I wonder if I could get a sinus transplant. lol

I'm taking a break from cleaning until after his friends go home, because basically I'd make too much noise, plus I'm tired, I've really worked up a sweat or two. My cat is laying on top of my computer monitor with her paws stretched out blocking my screen, so I'm trying to read between her paws. :D The things we do for those we love.

In other news, my sugar is high today and I haven't even eaten yet. I took some insulin (although I'm supposed to take it with meals) to try to lower the reading. I don't know why it's so high though (and I'm hungry!)
While I was cleaning, I found an anniversary card with $20 from my grandma in it. I thought I lost it somewhere in my travels, but I am happy that I found it again. I will probably go to the grocery store to get a few things to tide us over until payday.

I was reading the newspaper from back where I grew up online. There was a bad fire at a mobile home that killed the father of a friend of my family's. My cousin's husband (they live next door) tried to get into the trailer to save him, but there was an explosion and he was very nearly killed himself.
The man that died was 84, his wife happens to be in the hospital now or she too might have been killed in the fire. They think that an oxygen tank that was stored in the home was the cause of the explosion although it's undetermined the cause of the fire.

Wow, maybe I should have made this into a blog, once I start typing you can't shut me up today!

Howard, the problem isn't with you or what you did or did not do, the problem is with her plain and simple. You don't want a woman that only if you give her stuff, that is not what it is all about. You want someone who loves you for you. This may sound harsh, but you are too good for Robin and you need to let her go. You will find someone better.

I just have a feeling Robin will be back in a couple of months,I'm just taking a shot in the dark maybe she'll smarten up and realize that maybe "material" things aren't that important.She lost out on a great jem,Her loss.Maybe she took this relationship too fast.

I had to trace this one back because I was wondering how you were getting on with Robin. It seems to me that things haven't changed that much in respect to her attitude towards you even after all this time. You deserve a lot better than someone who wants you for what you can give them materially and I am sure there are plenty of women out there wanting a chance to date you no strings attached. :)

I pleased her so much just to make her happy but I guess it wasn't enough.I got the job but the money wasn't good for her so I never knew what was going to make her happy.The problem was that she sometimes threatened me If I didn't get this or that for her,We'd break up and you don't want a woman who puts demands on you,you want a mate that respects you for you not for the money,She never had patience.

Today was the greatest day of my life ...

For a while now, I've been chatting with this girl whom I met through an internet dating site. Eventually she expressed interest of meeting in person, so today I drove 80 clicks to the neighbouring city where she lives. We met at Tim Hortons, then went and played pool with a few of her friends for a good portion of the night. At the end of the evening, I asked her if I could see her again sometime, and she said yes http://spiffy-entertainment.com/forums2/images/smilies/bouncy.gif

This girl gave me something today that no girl has ever given me before ... a chance, and that made me the happiest man in the world :)

Thanks all,

Through all this though, there is something that scares me. I really like this girl, in sort of a 'love at first sight' kind of way. The moment I met her in person, my heart just melted like butter. I am afraid that if I expect too much, she might get scared away.

I've been given a great opportunity, and I don't want to lose it. She makes me feel a way that no girl has made me feel before

my advice Jason...take it slow. You don't want to rush things or overwhelm her...there's nothing worse than feeling smothered by someone (been there, done that). Just take it one day (or date) at a time...give her the space she needs though. :)

She knew what I looked and sounded like before she wanted to meet me, which means she does like me, something that has never happened to me before with any girl. I'd love see what the future holds for me and her, so I will definately take things slow.

Jason- -WooT, WooT- You are one of several friends I have hoped would find a "good one".
Take it one step at a time, 'A'. And if she lasts through several dates with you, and wants to take it at a better pace, then you know you're taking your first steps into a larger world.
Carpae diem, and caveat emptor, bud!

As for me- Teela's party went better than I thought.
I was actually impressed at the Bowling Lane's quality of things.
They made us feel genuinely welcome to be there, didn't try to rush us through anything, and things went very smoothly.
Teela had her cousins, and a few friends from school show up. The kids all got 2 games, and they signed a special Bowling pin, which Teela brought home.
She enjoyed her gifts, as well.

But we decided to hold a few over, for her actual birthday on Wednesday.

The drummer is in Elk Grove, a bit older than me, and has been drumming for 20 yrs.
He has had a few different jobs, but really wants to get back into the serious band mode.
We're looking at meeting within the next 2 weeks.

Let's hope we can get more of us together- if I can just get a real band together, and have a decent musician pool established, then I think we'll be OK.

The other day, she showed me this photo of her that just blew me away. Never before had I seen such a beautiful smile on such a beautiful girl and it was at that moment when I realized that I have been given the chance to be with the girl of my dreams, and that made me more happier than I have ever been in my life

I know that there is that chance of things maybe not working out, but I am going to do my best to try and sweep her off her feet, and I will do it by just being me :)

How somebody will treat you depends on how you LET them threat you. If that makes any sense.

And the last girl I went out with treated me unfair. :(

Howard, I know how hard it is when someone breaks up with you, even if they aren't good for you. Hang in there. Trust me, it will get easier to be without her (I'm not saying it will happen overnight, just that it will happen). Don't rush into anything new.

Thanks Stats,I'm still feeling bad and maybe part of the problem was that I should've got her a Valentine's gift that Sunday because I was working late Thursday the 14th and she works late as well and we would see each other again that weekend so I could've made it up to her by taking Robin out to dinner.Another part of the problem was a lack of communication and trust.I never saw the break-up coming because I was too blinded by love and I refused to see anything that wasn't a hint.

Yeah, Wayne, that's kind of the way I saw it, too. But thanks for the valuable insight (and more importantly the laugh!) :) :P Past experience shows that it will probably not result in a raise (at least not in the near future).

It was Wells. The quake was centered 11 miles outside of Wells. It was an abandoned building that toppled they were trying to renovate it. As far as I have heard, no injuries or fatalities. I think the scariest part was they closed down the truck stop because of a propane leak. I think it helped that it happened at 6:15 AM so most people were still in bed.

I heard about it on the TV news this morning. They said it was magnitude 6.3 (I think). I'm glad everyone's fine too.

It's not what's in my oven that bothers me, it's how long it's going to take to cook - I can't wait! :D ;D

Fish and chips is alright to get from the chippie but it depends on where you go. There are some quality places and some really awful ones too. The ones down here, due to it's touristy perspective, are pretty expensive for what you get.

The good ones are usually the ones out of the way. When I lived in Wolverhampton, there was (don't know whether it is still there) a chipshop that made them in a different way to the others. Every chip was a pleasure to eat.

Oh, must remind the folks across the pond that chips over here are thick fries. What you call chips we call crisps over here in the UK.

That was the only episode of that show that I have ever seen. As it was going on, there were a lot of ads in the local paper asking if anyone wanted to volunteer-where to go and when. For us, it was on the other side of the state-so we didn't. :-[ They also had follow-up articles-one the day after that episode aired and the family's reaction to it.

Oh man. Am I turning into my mother where I repeat things all the time? Please just shoot me.

I think it's me.I don't know why I've been dating girls with disabilities and disorders.And I've learned that if you go out with one they have a tendency to become needy and plus if you've been going out with one,you wind up with problems and stress throughout the years.Think about it,I went out with a girl who had Down Syndrome for 5 years and ended it October 2001 and Robin who suffers from Aspergers ended it February 2008.I think I'll go out with a girl who has no disorders at all.

The girl (or guy) doesn't need to have disorders to be needy or to cause stress throughout the years. But I digress, I wish you good luck in your search for your next mate.

Perhaps we can organize a reality show "Who wants to date Howard?" It might be a hit.

Glad you are back amongst us Karen, and glad you had a lovely vacation. I would like a detailed itiniary since I live vicariously through everyone else's travels. lol

Ahhh...Poor Karen (Belle du Jour) I'm so sorry to hear that you are sick again. Any chance of you getting in to see a dr. soon? Perhaps you have something more serious like walking pnumonia that never really got cured the first time? (I hope not)

I, too, have been sick and have had trouble breathing (it almost seems that sometimes I forget to breath, I will be walking somewhere and all of a sudden I realize I've been holding my breath, and I've got to tell myself... "Well BREATHE dummy!" and so I do and all is well again until the next time.) So, I'm not really sure why that is happening. I think it started when my allergies/sinuses started bothering me again. Perhaps my sub-consious feels that if I don't breathe then I won't have my allergies bother me. (I never said I was the brightest bulb in the pack.) ;D
Luckily I have a doctor's appointment in mid-March, so if I don't get better before then, I can consult him.

In other news, I killed my cell phone today. I dunked it in Mandarin Oranges (in light syrup). Don't ask.

Holy crap! I do that breathing thing too! :o I don't do it all the time, but after I have an asthma attack, I usually have to tell myself to breathe or else I won't. It's freaky and scary as hell, and it's usually worse if I'm laying down in bed. So no, you're not dumb. :D

It all started this last last week, my right ankle began to swell up, it has returned to normal, but still can be painful to walk on. It was last Friday Morning I when to the doctor's for advice and this morning was the taken of blood for the blood test, with the results due towards at the end of week.

Glad you are back amongst us Karen, and glad you had a lovely vacation. I would like a detailed itiniary since I live vicariously through everyone else's travels. lol

thanks. Even when I was away I thought of people here on the boards. Several times I walked past a Cinnabon cafe, I also saw two signs for sale I thought Cat (and others here) would like. One said "Bad spellers of the world - untie!" the other one said something like"The more I get to know about people the more I love my cats"

You might regret asking for a full detailed account!

We left early on Friday 15th. Friday was a bit of a disaster practically from the start. I decided to nip out of the car at the bottom of the drive to put the rubbish in the bin and pick up the paper from the mailbox. I forgot about the black ice there and went slamming down, then slid into a puddle. Limp back to the car, turn around and go back to the house to get changed, apply Band Aids etc.

Get to the local airport, spend a while in a queue getting some more breakfast. Have to run to the gate intending to eat the food on the plane - it took so long to get served. Find out that we didn't get boarding passes at check-in, we were supposed to pick them up at the gate ::) They only have two seats left for the four of us :o Bit of rant from Dai and they find that the plane that is about to leave has two seats left. So we split up. I take James and Dai comes later with Elizabeth. At the time I was mad but it worked out better for me because the flight I went on was direct whereas Dai and Elizabeth had an hour or so at Baltimore before getting on another plane to Orlando. Also we got quite a bit of compensation.

James and I get lunch at the airport whilst waiting for the other two. When they arrive we get the luggage and go to pick up our hire car. Except the company Dai thinks we're booked with isn't listed. >:( Decides that he may have misheard Dollar Car Rental and "Dial-a-car rental" and asks at the Dollar desk. They claim that the confirmation number he has isn't one of theirs so we check the listings again and phone a company with a similar name. They say that we have booked with them, we go and get on their minibus to their lot and find out when we get there that we hadn't booked with them at all! They let look up the website Dai had used and he gets the phone number to call up Dollar Car Rental!

Finally we get to the desk to find that our credit card has been cancelled! According to the bank there was some suspicious activity on it so they closed the card. End up sticking it on my UK credit card.

Finally drive to the hotel and decide we need abit of entertainment. The hotel is reasonably close to Universal and we have passes for unlimited visits there for seven days. We went to Islands of Adventure and spent most of the time in Seuss Landings. Coming back to the hotel we got lost (the road signs only gave the option of East or West on Route 4 and we didn't want to go to Route 4 at all) and ended up paying a dollar or a dollar fifty to got up the turnpike, through the services and back down the turnpike again!

And this was just Friday!

On Saturday we went back to Islands of Adventure and went around most of it. We went the Jurassic Park bit where they have a 'research centre' where you can see a baby dino 'hatching'. James thought it was great. We got soaked on Popeye and Bluto's Bilge-Rat Barges and scared the children in Poseidon's Fury (a walk through story adventure). The Eighth Voyage of Sinbad show was good, if a little loud at times.

Sunday we went to Kennedy Space Centre and a good time. We went to meet an astronaut (John McBride) and ELizabeth had her photo taken with him and asked what subjects she should study to become an astronaut. She fancies being the first lady to go to Mars. This was the second time we've visited Kennedy and we still didn't see everything! It really is a full day and well worth the drive from Orlando.

Monday was Disney Magic Kingdom and more water rides and rollercoasters. Elizabeth and I went on Space Mountain which is an indoor rollercoaster in the semi-darkness. It was very fast! We also went on Splash Mountain a couple of times. This is a log flume type ride with a 50 foot drop at the end. On the more gentle side we went on one of the first rides Walt Disney designed called the Carousel of Progress.

Tuesday and Wednesday we went to Universal Film Studios and Disney Hollywood Studios. I can't recall which day was which now! Both of these were more shows and 3-D films than rollercoasters and getting wet. We particularly liked the Shrek 4-D film and E.T. Adventures at Universal and Lights, Motors, Action Stunt Show and Star Tours - the ultimate Star Wars thrill ride. After the Star Wars ride there was a Jedi Training class and James was picked (along with about 10 others) to go on stage to start his Jedi training. There was a big thrill at the end when Darth Vader came on stage to try to get the children to join him on the Dark Side!

On Thursday morning we went back to Universal studios to go on a couple of rides that had very long queues before. The Spdier Man 3-D ride was very good but I had to close my eyes at one point because I was becoming motion sick. In the afternoon we went to Islands of Adventure again and went on Dudley Do-Right's RipSaw Rapids Falls and got very wet - not from the ride itself but from the squirters at the side. You can pay a quarter to operate one of these squirters and they got us soaked through! >:( Elizabeth and Dai went on Jurassic Park River Adventure which they said was good but we couldn't persuade James to go on it at all. Towards the end of the day a heavy downpour started. We squelched our way to the car, went back to the hotel to change and thenwent to Bubba Gump's Shrimp place for dinner.

On Friday we went to Gatorland which was something completely different. James had a go at alligator wrestling (really just an opportunity to sit on a baby alligator with its mouth taped shut), we saw their close encounters show with various venomous and scary animals and walked through the wildlife area looking at the gators, turtles and various birds in the area.

Flew home late afternoon to land in Hartford during a snow storm. Very carefully drove home sticking to the main roads as much as possible. Some were better than others but we made it back safely.

;D Might as well be you. OK, I'll try to make my story short and sweet (no guarantees though).

OK, I decided to cut and paste my story from my Myspace blog (please forgive the repeat performance to those that might have already read it there. - I'm just being lazy today. Although today has gone MUCH better then yesterday.)

Ever have one of those days???

Have you ever just had one thing after another happen in one day? Sometimes good, sometimes bad?

Here is how my day began. I woke up at 4 a.m. in a cold sweat from dreaming that I was in several different horror movies always as the victim about to be killed. Not a pleasant thought, let me tell you!

I got up and I was drenched in sweat and kinda foggy-headed, which is usually a sign of low blood sugar, so I stumbled out to my recliner and proceeded to take my reading of my sugar. Then I had to find something that was fairly easy to make to eat. Then I ended up gorging on terrible snacky things such as chips and half of a can of mandarin oranges in light syrup. At last the lights came on (in my head) and I began to feel better. I went to the bathroom, splashed some water on my face, dug out my little personal fan (it's the cutest little thing and I keep it in my purse - never know when a hot flash will hit.) I turned it on me for a little while until I felt cooler, then went back to bed for a little while longer. Well...that little while turned into not waking until 12 noon! Yikes.

My hubby usually has his friends over to play games on Sundays at our dining room table, so I was kinda scurrying about, tidying up the place, cleaning the bathroom (why do something early - I always leave everything to the last minute.)

Then I call my mom and talk to her for a bit. I only have a cell phone (I rarely use the phone so it's cheaper if I just have a pay-as-you-go cell phone plan. It costs 10 cents a minute, which is reasonable to me.)
I get distracted and go to put my phone on the table beside me. Plop! Right into the half-empty can of mandarin oranges in light syrup. Aaaaaaarrrrrrgggghhhhh! So I try to dry it off as best as I can, but it's a gonner. *sigh*

My hubby's friend come over and I get a manic phase and try to entertain myself by cleaning the kitchen from top to bottom (doing every dish in sight, and reorganizing the fridge and pantry.) Wheeee!

Fortunately my energy fades before I'm tempted to clean the rest of the house. I wouldn't want hubby to think I was cloned by aliens or something. lol

So after his friends leave for the night, he starts pulling my phone apart. Apparently to completely take it apart (which he loves to do anyways - take things apart, see how they work and put them back together) he needs a teeny tiny itty bitty little screwdriver/wrench with a star tip. So he goes thru his millions of toolboxes (only a slight exaggeration) but alas nothing small enough to undo the itty bitty teeny tiny little screw. By this time I am on the phone calling Radio Shack, Ace Hardware (anywhere I can think of) but alas, on Sunday night nothing is open late...except for Wal Mart. So we trudge out into the cold night air and begin our arduos journey to the Mart of Sir Walton. Yay it's open 24 hours! Hooray! I find a parking space. Boo Hiss...no itty bitty teeny tiny little screwdriver little enough to fit my (by now) in 30 pieces cell phone (that no longer works because it's full of Mandarin Orange syrup.) So...the next best thing...look for a new cell phone. Nope they do not sell the same brand of phone, but if I want to go to the other 24-hour Wal-Mart (only 9 miles (14.4841 kilometers) down the road) then I can get a twin to my cell phone (or I guess I should say younger sister.) So now we are home, and now I am waiting for my cell phone to charge and for the people that man the cell phone call center to come into work on Monday morning, so that I can see if I can transfer my balance of minutes that I've already paid for to my new phone.

No more Mandarin Oranges for me. Nope no sirree Bob. Those things are killers (of cell phones).
Luckily I'm still here with you and my hubby didn't murderize me for not dumping the rest of the can of oranges down the sink. If that isn't love, I don't know what is. lol

Get him to check the fit of the lens on your eye. Dai had a hell of a time with his last contacts prescription. Turns out the lens was sitting too low on his eye so he was looking more through the edge of it.

No regrets here. I love reading about people's adventures. Sounds like a good time was had by all (which is of key importance.)

Glad it's not as bad as before, hopefully soon you'll wake up as frisky as a kitten sans any headache whatsoever!

How information will be told to the insurers?

Well, that won't be so much a problem as we don't have any insurance (even though we're supposed to have renters insurance). It's really quite expensive and money is already tight (although if I budgeted for it, perhaps it would be a good idea afterall). Luckily hubby call the cell phone carrier this morning and took care of transferring my service and minutes to my new phone. I even have the same phone number. All I had to do this afternoon was reprogram my phone numbers into my phone book on the new phone.
When my hubby talked to the call center employee, he did not take the opportunity to make me feel more foolish then I already do, he simply said that the other phone does not work now. Bless him. He could have really made a big production out of my clumsiness.

So, I go to the eye doctor yesterday to get my eyes checked and decide to try contacts again. So, he checks my eyes, tells me there's little change from my glasses and gives me the contacts. I can see perfectly out of the left one, but the right one is blurry as heck....guess I need to get a stronger one tomorrow ::)

Something similar happened with my hubby and his new glasses. The one eye is perfect (much better then his old glasses that he's still using by the way >:( ) but the other eye is really blurry. We haven't made another appointment with the optomitrist to see if perhaps the perscription was written wrong...

I would think dunking stuff in mandarin orange juice would make ti better...not worse.

You would think. Apparently not so much with electronic equipment. :\'(

First time I've been to that particular music venue since it was bought out by a big chain and 'refurbished' last year.

So...the next best thing...look for a new cell phone. Nope they do not sell the same brand of phone, but if I want to go to the other 24-hour Wal-Mart (only 9 miles (14.4841 kilometers) down the road) then I can get a twin to my cell phone (or I guess I should say younger sister.)

it will be frustrating if they can't identify what's ailing you. my daughter has had a variety of uncomfortable symptoms and had blood tests, but nothing bad came up, so its a mystery. hopefully it passes with time.

It is her first time away and sometimes stress can cause physical symptoms. It happened to me, maybe she misses her dad ;)

Phillip, I hope it turns out to be something minor and easily, quickly, and painlessly mended. M's foot was misdiagnosed...turns out she tore some ligaments in that basketball game she played in.

Mike, you aren't kidding. We go in assuming they will have no idea what is causing whatever problem she is having. She just had labwork re-done this evening to see if it confirms the initial RA diagnosis.

You are quite welcome as I, too, appreciate your effort in converting your math to non-metric so that I can understand it as well. :) My only worry is that since I'm not really familiar with the terminology of the metric system, so I wasn't sure what a comparable equivilant would be.

Glad you are back amongst us Karen, and glad you had a lovely vacation. I would like a detailed itiniary since I live vicariously through everyone else's travels. lol

Ahhh...Poor Karen (Belle du Jour) I'm so sorry to hear that you are sick again. Any chance of you getting in to see a dr. soon? Perhaps you have something more serious like walking pnumonia that never really got cured the first time? (I hope not)

I, too, have been sick and have had trouble breathing (it almost seems that sometimes I forget to breath, I will be walking somewhere and all of a sudden I realize I've been holding my breath, and I've got to tell myself... "Well BREATHE dummy!" and so I do and all is well again until the next time.) So, I'm not really sure why that is happening. I think it started when my allergies/sinuses started bothering me again. Perhaps my sub-consious feels that if I don't breathe then I won't have my allergies bother me. (I never said I was the brightest bulb in the pack.) ;D
Luckily I have a doctor's appointment in mid-March, so if I don't get better before then, I can consult him.

In other news, I killed my cell phone today. I dunked it in Mandarin Oranges (in light syrup). Don't ask.
do you ever use an inhaler? maybe you need a puff or 2 per day to open oup your breathing passage

It can take ages to process, but when it is finally won and paid, the benefits are rewarding.

Yeah, especially with our government and everyone's insistence that my dad is NOT disabled (it's SSDI that he's getting, I think). The judge hearing the case actually apologized to my dad for it taking so long, especially with my dad's prior work record. He also thanked my dad for serving in the military, which I'm sure made my dad feel great. :)

I have to take the spawn back down to the school today to see if the speech therapist is aboot so he can get evaluated. I honestly think he's faking it, because he's speaking more and is enunciating better. Stubborn ass. :P

yesterday on my day off, my friend & I went to the small home town where I grew up as a kid and teen, and young rebel. we took flowers to my moms grave site, spent a little time there, it was a beautiful sunny day. Then we went to the huge awesome sports complex "Big League Dreams" where the town held it's 1st Hall Of Distinction Sports Heroes induction ceremony. Many local residents alive and dead were inducted in a very well organized event. The dinner was BBQ, beef Tri-Tip and chicken and various side dishes. sitting 2 tables away from us throughout the event were Former professinal atheletes that were invited to speak and lend their support. Major League Baseball star Vida Blue, Football stars Keena Turner, Y.A. Tittle, Bob St. Clair, RC Owens, and 3 time Olympic Gold Medalist in swimming, Debbie Meyer and she had her 3 gold medals with her. they were totally cool. I got my pic taken with Vida and met all the others, several had Super Bowl Rings on their hands. These guys & gals ae now long retired from their sports, but it was fun spending the evening with them. We were at the table of 2 inductees, one deceased so his family accepted, and the other Scott Brooks, former National Basketball Association star and championship winner with the Houston Rockets, now he coaches for the Seattle Supersonics & was at his game but we got to sit at his table. it was fun, my friend was so thrilled he wants me to take him to the 2nd annual next year. I may have to take Lady Di

That sounds like a very good idea. When I can finally get around to it I will do some saving . . . Trouble is, there is always something to spend your money on, lol.

I'm so irritated!

Well, I'm too tired to be irritated.

1. I left my dog out to play with the neighbor's dog. She left them in the yard for 4 hours. Yeah, they can take the 20 degree weather, but still!
2. I clocked in at 7 am. went to an early meeting, then home, back to work....then all my work that was shceduled for the day was put on hold. i ended up subbing for someone and doing none of my own work.
3. Got out at 8:45 tonight. Long day.

I ordered a ton of food, poured a glass of wine. I'm tired but I might have to hit the town tonight.

Sorry, what are 'annuities'?

An annuity is money that you save and invest, then when you have a lot of money you draw off of it to supplement your living expenses. It is something people who are lucky enough to have, or have made, enough money generally use in retirement. I am putting money into an annuity, but sadly it is one of the company benefits that have been drastically curtailed in the present climate.

I have been to my doctor and Blood has nothing wrong with it, I am clear, but the swelling could had been caused by my son's Tonsilitus the other week, affecting me in a rheunmatic fever way. Due the my foot still being painful, possible Tendonitus, I have been told to rest it more than walk.

Just got back from skiing.

I had a lesson today and we went on the lift for the first time. I went up three times. Fell over twice getting off and the third time I got of succesfully but fell spectacularly on the descent instead :-\\

Elizabeth was supposed to be going to a Girl Scout sleepover tonight but it's been cancelled because of the predicted heavy snow.

James has his Scout Troop meeting tonight about one of the local food shelves. We've done a couple of collections at local supermarkets already and we have some stuff from home to donate tonight.

I actually probably could sue, but I'm not really the type after money. If I had like maybe cracked my head, and had to miss a day of work or something, then maybe, but only if they told me that I would lose pay for that day

I was in the building in plenty of time for work, but I showed up at my cubicle 4 minutes late cause I was in HR getting bangaged up, so I told my boss, and she was understanding and reset my start time to show that I was ontime :)
