What the …..?
what is this ? i found it in my apartment hanging in the closet.
ok like i said here are the pictures of my apartment
Hey, look! Spare parts!
Well I got Mom’s new computer installed and up and running. So I took her old one home to spruce up to new. Just like it was in those sweet days of the year 2000. Turns out it really was Y2K compliant.
So I pull off the cover to discover 5 years of dust, but what to my wandering eyes should appear? But two hard drives! I didn’t remember putting another hard drive in here, but apparently I did. And why didn’t I take the old one out? Weird. So I wonder if the other hard drive is actually bad, since I can’t remember putting the new one in, I sure can’t remember why I would have. I guess I’ll try getting it to work, and if it does, I guess the machine will have two hard drives now.
Go figure.

Proof of devine intervention. I don’t know how else to explain it.
I was heading to work yesterday an the roads in Manhattan are slick as…well, ice. Polished ice. And I notice that the traffic has come to a stop up ahead, and at the same time a fire truck is coming from behind. So I get over to the right, as does everyone else. Then after the fire truck passes, I get in the left lane to turn left and turn around in a parkinWHAM!. I get nailed in left rear corner by a little red Ford Escort. So I hobble into the parking lot thinking…”Well this had to happen sooner or later.” Thinking that the hooptie has seen it’s days.
So the girl that hit me, and I exchange information. Apparently we weren’t the only ones trading paint, because she said she called the cops and they were only taking emergency calls. So I head back to the car to look over the damage. Looks like the left rear blinker is busted out, but other than that, everything seems pretty cosmetic. So I get in the car, and drive on to work.
Later after work, I tested out all my lights. (I didn’t think to do that before I went to work. =P ) And come to find out, all the lights still work, just the plastic cover to the blinker broke. Now, not to say that you can’t tell I got schmacked. It’s a pretty big dent, but the car still drives, and all the lights work. It’s friggin street legal! So all I need to do is tape over the light so it doesn’t get too wet.
So so the Pontiac 6000 that was once in all its glory, continues to serve without fear, and without (too much) hesitation! Long live the hooptie!
F’d up

If you remember from a past blog, my husband’s boss uses his employees to do all of his personal CRAP! Last week, Bryan had to clean up his basement because the sewer had backed up. The day before that, he had to clean up the boss’s son’s throw up!
So anyways, Bryan comes home last night and says, “Tomorrow is Cori’s (the boss) birthday. Everyone is putting money in to get him something.” My first reaction, NO! He told me that, well everyone is giving some so I’ll look like an ass not giving anything. So I undersood that I guess.
“Give $5.” I tell him.
“Well everyone else is giving $35!”
AAHHH! This is total madness! Everyone giving the boss money, the man who has over 200 GRAND in his checking account. Am I on some alternate universe where NONE of this makes sense?! This man makes my husband clean up his SHIT… literally!! He mops up his sewer water and now wants a GIFT from us?!?! I said, “Nothing more than $10. That is the most you will give!”
Now Bryan tells me he won’t get to leave for his lunch hour tomorrow since they are having a “Birthday BBQ” for his boss. “Well, you’ll just have to miss our prenatal appointment tomorrow then…”
Bryan apologized all over himself this morning for not being able to make it to the appointment. I said, “I’m not mad at you. It just blows my mind that you’re paying him 10 bucks to miss your son’s, and my appointment tomorrow.”
What kind of boss can’t understand: “I think my family and our baby-to-be need the money, and we can’t really afford to give him anything right now?” How hard to undersand would that be, for the boss?!?! I know that here at the Journal during Thanksgiving and Christmas that they ask people if they want to give money to the company. Call me greedy but I’m not giving up my hard earned wages to a company worth millions… nay…. BILLIONS of dollars!
Am I wrong for how I think? Is it wrong to not give money to his boss for his birthday? All this for a man who can’t give out a Christmas bonus, or do anything for his employees on the holiday’s other than making them clean up human waste?!?!

no one had made a post in a while so i decided to post this thats right im posting randomness nothing all that important just me telling you all (yall: for you rednecks out there) that im posting ….

4/20…Greatest Day of the Year?
I know this is a couple days late…but I just thought about it. Does everyone else on this blog know about 4/2o…cause I sure didn’t. I was made fun of by my fellow work mates the other day cause I didn’t know what 420 stood for.
Well…it turns out to be ‘weed day’. Like I would know that! They said it was the cops ‘code’ for marijuana. Hmm…why would I know about the cops code to marijuana. I don’t smoke it!
Anyways, just wondering if anyone else thinks I’m stupid for not knowing this little ‘fact’. 😉
Smell-o-Vision?
I dunno if I like this idea. But Sony is working on an idea to implement in movies where you can actually smell something on the screen. I figured it’d be a box full of different scents, but apparently it has to do with brain waves or something. If this comes true, it’ll just give me another reason to dislike scary movies.

everything has grown quiet. ppl are disappearing without a trace the goomba attacks are growing. My power flowers are growing less and less each day. My power mushrooms are gone my only fear is where these creature come from and that i feel impending doom is coming something dark something evil but what is it ……………..
Just curious….
No secret I’m not the brightest crayon in the box, but can someone explain a couple things, please….
First, what the heck do you do with the pepsi lids that say ‘free song’? And what is it with the lids that that just have a bunch of letters and numbers? Reasoning says read the bottle, but uh, threw them away. 🙂 And buying another bottle pretty much blows the ‘free song’ theory.
Also, if you were looking at a vehicle that had basically an engine (that idles like a cessna at take off) and a body in decent shape for a ’84, hollow dash (no radio, heating, interior lighting), no power steering, grill falling off, bald tires, and requested not to test drive it over half a block….wouldn’t you think there might be reason to NOT purchase this vehicle? If you did want to buy it, what price would you pay? My fear is that any drive over half block the dang thing either takes flight or craps out….am I just a walking fool?
Time to get ’round for work…I’m excited, working 19h out of the next 24h.
Matt…had a great time in Milford/JC/Aggie. We are looking forward to heading up and doing some fishing. Andrea…let me know when you are ready for that tattoo, would love to hang out and watch!
L-YA, M
