Day day day.. what a day.
Hope called me this morning crying about her leaving Chris and blah blah but I was butt ass tired so I just asked her ‘Is this an April Fools’ joke?” which it was..
K and Hope and I went up to the shop to bring the guys dinner and K decided to move her husband’s truck. The truck is his baby. So when he called her cell tonight right after work flipping out it was pretty funny. I wish I could have seen his face.
Today was MandaPanda’s birthday. We spoiled her rotton and we’re taking her for the pedicure/manicure thing next week.
I got most of my work done today. I just have to upload everything for peeps.
BlogExplosion however pissed me off.
I must have gotten about 50 people who submitted “April Fools Sites”. Of course I wouldn’t approve any … “I hate Jews”? Um… all they did was waste my time.. literally and pissed me off enough to take down account names.
Basically my day was .. normal.. and my weekend will be secluded in this room working..
And no those were not my boobs. I’m not trying to get divorce papers here.
3T, sorry for corrupting your daughter! I did laugh when I read she tries to sneak on here but now I feel like some child corrupting *bad word*. I promise I’m on my best behavior around kids..
Oh and Happy Birthday Vern!

Clean Up
Today was an incredibly long long day.
I didn’t get to bed until 5 am Thursday morning and woke up at 11 to throw the turkey in the oven.
That damn thing basted and roasted and heated up the entire house for about 4 hours then Gary and I headed over to Hope and Chris’s house (right across the street practically). There wasn’t too many people there (9 adults and 3 kids) so we stayed for about 6 hours and had a really good time. I’m so freakin tired now though it isn’t funny.
I was pretty bummed that we couldn’t go to CA to visit Gary’s brother’s family for Thanksgiving. The AF just couldn’t give up the leave. Of course I find out tonight that some punk in his shop pulled the ‘pity me’ shit and got leave for the weekend to go to Texas. I’m trying not to be pissed about that. Whoever kept track of holiday leave in Gary’s shop this year fucked up big time. There are some guys who get off Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years (well got leave anyway.. everyone gets off). And some (like us) who got nothing.
My mom coming out made it alot better though. I probably would have keeled over if she hadn’t. And I know I’m very very lucky to even have Gary here. This is why I’m not bitching and whining about it. This was our third Thanksgiving together and probably the best so far.
We watched The Terminal tonight (god I love netflix). This movie was pretty damn good. I was worried at first with Tom Hanks playing someone who spoke little to no English but he pulled it off great and well I’d recommend it to anyone.
Speaking of movie opinions. I use IMDB.com for my movie links and I tend to scroll down and check out some of the comments but then I get really annoyed at alot of these people. It’s like someone gave a bunch of highschoolers computers and told them to bicker about movies. The sad thing is I’m willing to bet alot of them are older than me.
The Cable Guy comes tomorrow. I’m so bloody excited I can’t stand it. Qwest isn’t bad at all .. (I don’t care for their voice mail system) but they’ve been really good for phone/DSL. Cox sucked in VA but they’ve been good out here too.
We live on base and the cable wires hadn’t ever been updated until Nov. 17th so we had like 30 channels when even the basic cable comes with 90+ and digital comes with 200+ and I was only paying $5 a month LESS than digital, so when I called Cox to point this out to them the lady dropped my cable bill to $20 a month.. which was pretty cool.
So anyway.. tomorrow they’re transfering our phone to digital phone, DSL to high speed cable and we’re getting digital cable WITH DVR! All for $5 more than I was paying before for phone/dsl and cable. AND it includes unlimted long distance, which I NEEEEED.
It’s Friday and my husband STILL has 3 more days with me… poor guy
Day 2
I can get used to this.
He’s not annoying me, I’m just going to have to adjust. I’m not used to having him around during the days.
So, I got up around 9 today and closed the bedroom door so he could sleep some more. I took Sammy and Noki with me because they’re relentless. I fed them early so HER ENDLESS meowing wouldn’t wake Gary up. Then it started.
Sammy had cattitude. There was meowing. There was hissing. There were furballs flying. They were running from one side of the house to the other.. massive giant catballs of claws and fur.
I had enough so I snatched up Sammy and tossed him in the room with Gary to separate them. Turns out it WASN’T Sammy with the cattitude it was Noki. She was at the bedroom door with as much of her paw that she could shove under it. SO I opened the door.. she runs in .. he runs out.. bam.. problem solved.
Then Gary got up. He was behaving today.. for the most part (and yes Michael before he shaves he’s a furry freak too). It’s just the little things like.. I’m trying to watch my ‘normal morning shows (Er, Chasing Amy) and he plops hisself right down where I was sitting (when I got up to get a drink).. And this Jag obsession.. I guess it comes on USA in the morning? But he watches it and this is the worst show I’ve ever seen in my life. Dude.. they’re MILITARY lawyers… but SOMEHOW every episode they’re off in the jungle/desert/mountains dodging bullets and killing terrorists/bad guys. It just cracks me up.
Now Gary is gone for work. The cats are sleeping. The house is quiet.
I have a really pretty iron curtain rod that I hung over the bed and draped a goldish colored silk window shaw over it. Makes for a gorgeous and unique headboard.
I think I’m going to go relax with this book for a bit. Then I have some work to do and Cherrys to bug.
And don’t you worry about that idiot from the previous 2 posts. He got his. Let’s just say.. call someone a “Jackass”.. and then use the same password for EVERYTHING.
Where did Sunday Go?
I swear… when I said I was turning it into a working weekend I didn’t realize exactly WHAT that meant. I finished one project. Finished ANOTHER one that I said I wouldn’t even start until tomorrow. GO ME!
I can’t really post any screenshots until I get final ‘approval’ from my wonderful clients..
Tomorrow Gary starts swing shift.. yay! That means we don’t have to go to bed at like 8pm tonight. That means he doesn’t have to get up at 5am. That means we can sleep in until about 9 run some errands.. get some work done.. he heads off to work around 2:30 and I have all night to bug Cherry and work… and exercise…
I saw this somewhere.
Of everything in your wardrobe what do you feel the most comfortable wearing? Why?
My ‘exercise’ pants.. blue with white stripes down the side.. very cotton.. very comfy.. very I wear these until I HAVE to get dressed.
How would you describe your style?
Dude.. my style is comfortable. I get ‘dressed up’ if I go out but I’ll blog naked if I can. I’ll work naked if I can. I don’t get dressed until I HAVE TO.. which isn’t often… yay!
How many pairs of shoes do you own and do you wear them all?
I’m not going to go count but I’d guess around 20 … I DO wear all of them. I purged about 20 pair that I never wore when we moved here.. I LOVE shoes.
Where do you buy most of your clothes?
I’m a sucker for like TJMax and Ross (I found that one out here.. love it).. I refuse to go to the mall and spend a fortune to look like everyone else when I can get it 50% at Ross!… Oh and a good thing to do is go to your favorite stores webpages. They are always having ‘sales bins’ .. just click your size.. click your color.. click deliver to my door.. and it’s cheap..
What was the last piece of clothing you bought?
Hrmm.. I hit Ross up about 2 months ago for some clothes for Gary and found some cute stuff I liked there too. He got some shorts and tees and I got some really cute shirts…
Memorial Day
This is my contribution for today. I’m NO expert with flash but hey.. it’s not about talent is it. God Bless the USA.
Today is Memorial Day and while it’s just a day off of work for a lot of people it actually has a reason. It’s the day we commemorate the members of the United States armed forces who were killed in war. It’s also a day that we set aside to remember all of our armed forces.
I didn’t see a lot of my dad growing up. Not because he was out drunk in the streets or because he and my mom divorced. My dad serves (still) in the United States Navy. As a child, that meant that my dad was on a submarine for six months out of the year. It meant that we had to move a lot and that my dad wore some silly outfits. I was one of the lucky ones. We didn’t have to move a lot once I hit about 4th grade. My dad is one of the best in his line of work. He could choose any duty station he wants.
(Bragging enough? Naw.. I love my dad)
My sister is in the United States Army. She served her first five years in Germany with my nephew and brother in law by her side. She spent 6 months of last year serving her/my/OUR country in Iraq. She only got to come home at six months because the Army decided she was too smart to be in her line of work and asked her to test for another area. She passed with flying colors (even correcting some wrong answers on the test) and is now training to be an electrical engineer. (Bragging enough? Naw.. I love my sister)
My husband is in the United States Air Force. My husband isn’t even a natural born citizen of the United States. He was born in Ireland and received his citizenship at the age of 17 (He got it on St. Patrick’s day if that isn’t just the neatest thing). Yeah, he went about it the legal way.. not jumping the fence or swimming the ocean like a lot of people who are here taking advantage of the system that should not include them. So here HE is serving a country that a lot of it’s OWN citizens won’t serve but sure will bitch and moan about how things are done. (Bragging enough? No, and I’ll never stop. I LOVE MY HUSBAND)
My brother-in-law is in the United States Navy. He isn’t even a citizen. So, he has served your country for six years and can’t even VOTE. That’s very admirable to me and I’m very proud to say he’s my brother-in-law
I am a military daughter, sister and spouse. I love my country. I love my family. I’m proud to be a military wife. I’ll support my husband through anything. I’ll support what he has to do as well. I’ll stand by his side and NEVER EVER be one of those people that make our guys and girls overseas ever think that what they are doing is wrong. You DO know they see this shit on CNN right?
It sickens me to see some people decide that even though they put nothing INTO the country (except taxes and not by choice) they have a mouth full of shit to spew.
I’m willing to bet my life that if ONLY military could vote in the election (you know.. the ones who are ‘suffering and dying’) that G W Bush would be elected again.
I’m proud to say that I have a real opinion. I have my reasons that I’ll vote for GW Bush this November (3 days after my birthday!). I don’t have to say… “Well I don’t like Bush and I’ll vote for anyone else at all”. I’m proud to be an American and all the rights it entails.
And today.. Memorial Day.. I’ll remember that if it wasn’t for all of those soldiers who died for our country I wouldn’t even be able to listen to some of you run your mouths about how you hate Bush. Because if you vote Sadaam in instead.. you’d just get shot.. or your heads cut off.. or your wives raped in front of you. Atleast you have the right to say what you want to say. Keep trying to elect in a loser and you’ll find yourself without them.
