Super Bowl??

Is anyone else surprised by the fact that the Cardinals actually made it? I don't normally watch football, but Frankie and I had a great idea, DVR the game and watch it later but fast forward thru the game and just watch the comercials and half time.

I am currently sitting on my couch with my new PINK laptop!! I love it, it is a Sony Vaio and it is the prettiest shade of pink i think ever!!!

Thing one and I are going to see Katy Perry tomorrow night at the U of A, I am so excited. It has been awhile since i went to a concert. I believe the last concert I saw was The Cure up in Phoenix last year. Took thing one and thing two to that one as well...thing two hates Katy though so we are not going to drag him with us.

I have been fighting this stupid illness for awhile, I have lost 20 pounds in a month and a half. I can't sleep and my headaches are not getting any better. less frequent but damn if I am going to be miserable....

Well I am off to watch some funny commercials. love ya...

I'm sorry I suck so bad..............

at updating my blog, life has been kind of crazy at casa chaos. Knuckles has been being a terror for the last couple of weeks, getting in trouble at school, talking back to all of his parental units, and just being a general pain in the ass! Frankie and I both ended up with pretty bad cases of bronchitis and I missed 4 days of work...it was awful, being a smoker doesn't help and I have been coughing my head off for 2 solid weeks. It is hard to think about much besides how miserable you feel when you feel so miserable!!!

On another note Frankie got a PS3 for a late Christmas present and we got the game Little Big Planet, which is absolutely the best game ever besides Animal Planet for the Wii which is what I got for Christmas. Between those 2 games and systems we haven't done much else. I also got the WHOLE Twilight series and am seriously addicted, Bella is a lot like me and I find it quite hysterical that she is so idiotically stupid sometimes. On another note I think that Robert Pattenson is a poor, poor choice for Edward.

That about sums up everything from after Christmas until now, I am a County employee so I have today off, silly but I will take any free payed day off I can get. I was driving to my mothers house this morning , it was around 930am and I had all the windows rolled down and the sun was shining and I realized that I live in on of the most truly beautiful places in the USA. It is currently 75 degrees, no wind, blue skies and majestic mountains all around. Thing one has said that as soon as she graduates High School she is moving someplace where it rains and snow, i just don't understand. Although she has lived in Tucson all her life so she really doesn't have anything to compare it to. I was also thinking to myself that I have a wonderful loving husband(he may be a little lazy...eh oh well) 3 beautiful children who are all brilliant and relatively well behaved, 3 wonderful dogs that are all fantastic, a beautiful new house and for the first time in my life I feel completely happy and fulfilled. I mean i suppose I could find something to complain about (ex husband marrying my best friend and knocking her up after swearing to me that he would never have anymore kids to the point where we fought about who was going to get fixed while we were still married...you may want to go back and read the part before the parenthesis that was kinda long) but what is the point. All the things that stress me out I really can't do anything about so why stress out over nothing!

I also would like to wish Lisa the best last few months...may they be the best ever. Clusterfook was one of the first blogs I started reading and I found her story to be extremely inspirational. I thought if this woman who is going through so much can find time to document her life I should be able to...right. Lisa I love you and I wish you the best! Thank you for sharing your life and struggles and pain with us all.

Anyway, i apologize again for staying away so long, I was busy living and enjoying my life. see ya next time.....xoxo

Holiday Update...LATE, LATE, LATE...

Sorry I haven't been around...the Holidays kept us all very busy. My Christmas dinner turned out fantastic and a wonderful time was had by all. Santa was so generous this year, thing one and thing two made out like bandits. We had our New year/ housewarming party and it went great as well. Didn't have too many people show up which was actually kind of nice. We ended up with those of our friends we consider the closest at midnight and that was perfect. Frankie has a pretty nasty cold that has turned into Bronchitis, and of course, what he gets I get..... have taken the last three days off work but sadly I have to go back tomorrow. Anyway hope all of your Holidays were as good as mine and welcome to 2009!!!

Whoa(is that how you spell it?) is me....

I did it, I started and finished in one day!!! I have never before been so efficient at Christmas shopping, I can't tell you what I bought because Thing 1 and Thing 2 know about this Blog, IDK if they actually read it but it is a fav on their explorer list. I even bought something for the SCB, that ought to make her feel bad(probably not), I need a couple more things for Knuckles but for the most part his Dad is responsible for that. Oh and my little brother, but I know what I am getting him, just have to wait for the next paycheck. Anybody else finished, anybody  wanna come and help me wrap? The sucky thing is everything has to be wrapped by tomorrow afternoon because Knuckles comes to spend his 3.5 days with us. The tree is up, the menu is planned, the presents are bought, no lights on the outside of the house but only because we can't find an electrical outlet...lol. All of that, it is even remotely cold here but I still just don't feel it. Bah-Humbug? Not really, just scared I think, I have never hosted before and I think I am worried about disappointing....

So here is the Story....

There are three women four if you include me that work in our office(small office 800sqft). Two of them are reasonable we will call them older lady and Hispanic lady... the third we will call self centered bitch....
 
My boss comes to me  a few weeks ago and says that because SCB doesn't enjoy being treated like a secretary she and I are going to change desks. Mind you I have my own office far removed from all the typical office gossip etc. I enjoy being by myself and my peace and quiet.  Boss man says that I have a much more calm demeanor and that I am better suited to answer the phone and sign people in for meetings etc.
 
Some history.....SCB has worked for the County for 12 yrs. in those 12 years she has worked in 7 different sections. I have worked for the County for 8.5 yrs and always for the same division. She will whine and stomp her feet and get what ever it is that she feels is necessary all at the expense of OL, HL, or myself. This last time before Boss approached me about the move  SCB came to me and said that she was going to request the move because her job as boss mans admin. support was too taxing along with answering telly  and  signing people in. Now I hold the same position as SCB except I do this job for two people not one.
 
So here I sit at my new desk in the middle of it all Smiling and gritting my teeth and wondering if boss man and SCB have something going on the side, I would never speak to him the way she does, she talks to him like she is yelling at a dog....
 
My question...is there anything I can do , or do I just hang on and hope she moves on?!? I literally HATE working with her but I love the job I do, not including answering phones etc..., HELP ME!?!

Poem...

 
 
No one who has ever known me has ever truly appreciated the experience, as I am a beautiful misunderstood shadow full of wisdom and sex appeal. Every single person whose life has been touched by my presence remains in a stalled state of wistful remorse, except for moments when God visits them with shooting pains for leaving me and forgetting me. I sit on my throne built from memories, wishing I wasn't so alone....
