it’s been few days~

i realized today that i havent opened my puter in like almost a week (more like four days i think)! that is the longest I have gone without my puter since i got it for xmas. that is crazy. i love my puter, but i got a new toy for my bday and i have been playing with that and reading bout it and getting new ringtones and such.

On mother’s day i started my gnome collection…ever since it has grown exponentially larger every week until my current count of…*drumroll please* 20!!! they range in sizes from 1 1/2 inches to 18 inches. they all have names and I have piled them in the corner of my stairs. they are so cute with their fat little cheeks and pointy little hats! chris is annoyed that i now have so many, but he has yet to refuse to let me bring them into the house…actually the reason they are in the house, because the neighbors cat knocked Gus (the 1st one I got,my actual mothers day gift from Ami) off the steps and face first to the sidewalk and broke him. I put him back together the best I could, and when I was gluing the final piece into his hat it fell into his hollow middle and so now he is missing a piece in his hat. I had to rename him Franken-Gus and he sits outside because if he gets ruined he is already the bionic gnome, so all that could happen is I have to put some more krazy glue on him. Toni was nice enough to find me the last Gus the store had! it wasnt even the store close to us. we went to like three or four locations of the store til we found the last one. I was so happy! now I technically have two of Gus…one regular and one Franken-Gus. I love gnomes! I have included a picture of gnomeland for your entertainment!

My friend Stephanie is getting married this fall, maybe I will get her a gnome as a wedding gift…then it technically isnt for me! I even found NFL gnomes (two of my great loves combined into one), but they didnt have the Chiefs, but in time…maybe they will! i already know what I will name it…Lenny!

I even named my Palm centro!

PETA

we spend all of our time an energy as a country fighting terrorism in the middle east or in third worl countries and we leave these assholes alone! if there was a definition of terrorism in the pop culture dictionary PETA would be one of those definitions! This group that longs to liberate all animals, but they care little about the human lives they take in the process of waging their war on anyone wo disagrees with them. Even they killed over 14,000 animals they claimed to not be able to care for! I’m sorry, but isnt that one problem most of us have against organized religion?!? they say one thing and do another…then they make excuses for why, in their case, it was necessary. they pay criminals( dont get me wrong they only hire the really “skilled” murderers and arsonists to do their bidding. then they pay for lawyers to defend these “soldiers” so as to get their point of view across. then they liken the holocaust to eating meat! I mean drinking milk, eating eggs,cheese, or steak is the same as Hitler killing 6million jews during WWII?!? How skewed is their world view? to actually think that!!!

should all great white sharks be destroyed because, after all, they eat seals and fish? they dont kill them immediately in 70% of kills. they bite them to disable them then go back when the seal is too weak to fight back and eat at their leisure. so are they cruel? should we make them go to an all vegan diet? maybe we should create some soy seal meat? Vegans swear by tofurkey and gardenburgers…maybe the great white would like it even better? why do you need a chicken substitute…if u want chicken, eat chicken!

PETA complains that to go from birth to your plate a cow uses 80 barrels of oil…how much of our resources would it take to grow enough soy to produce the protein that the worlds people need? crops need water and it takes fuel to run the machinery and to process and transport the soy to the grocery store…what is the difference? the soy plant doesnt have a face!

I can understand trying to get them to be humane and if you’re gonna kill an animal, do it quick and dont abuse it. I dont eat veal because there is no way to create veal kindly. but i dont ridicule persons who enjoy veal. that is a personal descision. PETA even targets children as young as six years old. they wait for them outside of their schools and get them while they are either getting on the bus or going to their parents cars…without the parents knowledge or permission. they tell them things such as “You’re mommy kills animals!!!” they even defend those actions by saying that their capaigns are geared towards children and always will be. also that they aim to shock people to get them talking…too bad they have lost their credibility with 97% of the people in this country!

I used to be a memeber of PETA because Im against animal testing and zoos,circuses,shelters, and wanted to be a part of rescuing abused and neglected animals…but then they got all into the whole vegan agenda and becoming really hateful and pushy. they are losing a whole generation of persons who might actually help and support them by bullying everyone who stands against their tactics! i think we should have a govt task force against PETA!!! freedom of speech only gets to go so far!

Sorry this is so long, but I had a lot to get off my chest…I have evn more, but Im losing steam for this rant.;-)

One for the birds..

I woke up to Vanessa exclaiming how there is a bird stuck in the chimney! Being a first time chimney owner I was a bit stumped on what to do.. Vanessa went to work, and I went back to sleep.

After a nice long rest I wake up around ten thirty. I go downstairs, turn on the TV and I hear flapping of some wings coming from the chimney. I head over towards the chimney and I start messing with the lever to see if the hatch is open or closed.. hoping that the bird would be smart enough to see it was either opened or closed. If the latch was open the bird would fly out… I was wrong..

I call the landlord to have them come deal with the problem since my only other option was to start a fire in the fireplace. 1st. It would either motivate the bird to leave or it would get cooked to death. 2nd. It would suck because in the middle of summer starting a fire in the fireplace is not exactly the best idea.. and when the bird was crispy it would more then likely stink up the house… bad idea there too..

Just after dinner this evening and waiting for the landlords to show up, Vanessa comments; “I am just waiting for that bird to fly through the living room.. I would just shit.” Just as she finished that sentence I shit you not.. the bird flew right out of the fire place and into the living room. Vanessa yelped and I laughed… I managed to follow the bird into Ami’s room and I closed the door behind me. The girls were on the other side all freaking out shit.. I knocked out the screen in the window and the bird flew out of the room and back out into the world… but not before it hit the window above the opened one. It was a chuckle..

I read this on another site and wanted to share incase you lived in a cave.. Edgy comic George Carlin dies at 71. I could reference many movies.. or skits but like before I think I will pass on this and just say Bummer…

Dear Husband,

Honey…go fuck yourself!!! what the hell was that bullshit anyway? go and find a geek squad agent or someone who knows bout puters…do you have a death wish or something? how dare you talk to me like that? you will get very tired of eating macaroni and frozen pizza…but when that happens i suggest you either go to your mom’s or find someone who can cook. i’d be happy to point you in the right direction.

as for my issue with the network…i will just start pushing things and clicking on different things until i either figure it out or break something! have faith in me, if anyone can break it…I can!!! love you bunch

love always,

your wife

Dear Wife…

I reviewed your last post and wanted to inform you I was not experiencing any problems with the network with my computer. The upgrades were necessary to help improve wireless security in and area where there are many availible wireless networks. Although there was the “1000 code” to enter in, it was necessary to take more precautions by turning off other “features” of the wireless network to help improve wireless security and safety. Things which are often over looked or unappreciated in a world consumed by clueless-ness, mistrust, and misfortune. All though you express I do these things to irritate you, that is not the case. When modifying security or features on the network it is for the best of the family. If you continue to have problems please contact the Geek Squad or perhaps a family member whom knows about computers. I could point you in the direction of man whom seems to know Linux pretty well.. *wink*

I appreciate your expressing your concerns and I wish you the best in the future with your wireless internet.

Regards,
Husband

OUR FUCKING NETWORK!!!

Everytime chris tells me he did something to our wireless network, i just cringe. it always means i have to jump through hoops to get onto my computer! i have to name the network and put in a 1000character password everytime i want to use the fucking network! i mean he was the one who wanted me to share his insane love of the computer…then he makes it such a pain in my ass to get on it that i no longer have any desire to use the damn thing. he always tries to tell me that he does it to benefit “our family” but i find it so frustrating i just want to kill him and the puter. he just likes to find new and interesting ways to torture me that is the real truth. he gets a kick out of seeing me frustrated! he thinks its cute when i’m mad. well i outta be a freaking super model to him right about now!

sunday

i am supposed to get something done that i am not fond of! and i am kicking and screaming, dragging my heels, and trying to find excuses to not get it done. wouldnt it be easier to just get it over with and then i dont have it hanging over my head? probably…but I DON”T WANA DO IT!!!! and no one can make me!*stomps foot and crosses arms over chest*

chris was feeling unfresh again yesterday and he was a pain in my ass! i told him he needed to get laid, that didnt even fix the problem. he just wanted to be grumpy i guess. i am just glad his bullshit got better today or i might have seriously killed him. or at least given him some nyquil so he would shut up and go to sleep.

As you may know ami has been sick, last night it got worse!…then this morning chris was sick as well (besides being one sick puppy!). two sick children is almost more work than i can take on! then, im not sure if it was stress, sympathy, or maybe something we shared, i started to feel icky too. nauseas, stomach pain, fatigue, and such other stuff. hopefully we will all be back on our feet soon (or off them *wink wink*)!

i had a really good birthday and I am so happy to be 30! but the day didnt suck as bad as i expected it would…I WANT MY GODDAMN PALM CENTRO!!! it is red and chris has already refused to program it for me, so i am gonna learn how to do it on my own and then im gonna give him a raspberry! :-P that there is a preraspberry raspberry!

chris is so grumpy today…maybe he needs some vinegar *wink wink*

when I came home from running errands this morning he is all kinds of grumpy and snippy. he is snipping at me and the dog the kid is mostly safe, but he wanted to snip at her too…he didnt cause she isnt feeling well. I wonder if he needs to get laid?!? he is acting like it! if he would only quit putting his foot in his mouth, maybe he could get frisky with me! but we’ll see!

chris and i had the funniest discussion about all these feminine hygiene commercials that are out there and how he does not appreciate them. As if I do!!! the old summers eve commercials had a mother and daughter walking arm and arm on the beach and the daughter asks the mother,”Mom, do you ever have that unfresh feeling?” the mom smiles and replies “Of course dear, I use summers eve vinegar and water douche!” then they both laugh and continue their walk and their conversation. the girl looked to be about 23 and i dont know about you, but by the time you hit 18…if you need to talk to your mom bout hygiene, you have issues my friend! i havent talked to my mom bout my southern region since i was seven or eight. even when i got my rag, mom didnt know about it for a year and a half. i just got my own stuff and took care of it. she was a bit surprised, but oh well! she said i robbed her of her right of passage or something. i didnt know she wanted to throw a party. unless ami wants a big deal made of it…i could care less!

Happy Birthday!!

I hope she enjoyed her 30th Birthday!

things are all sorts of screwy!

today is father’s day…chris had to work so we gave him father’s day yesterday. he had to work then too, but he didnt go in until like 230 or so. we made him his favorite breakfast and gave him his gifts and crds then doted on him til he had to leave. when he came home from work i made him some homeade ice cream,apple pie flavor, and i think it is gross…but he thinks its ok. i think it may not have been so bad if i had out some chopped apples in it and more cream…live and learn.

I have had so many birthdays to deal with this month 11 bdays and 3 anniversaries and father’s day! busy month (actually september is the busy month…that’s when all these june babies were conceived!)!!! i am ready to have my bday over with! i’m not bummed bout turning 30…im very happy to be out of my 20′s (they werent the best times i’ve had, and being in my 30′s makes me feel more like an adult)! like i could actually be considered an adult *HEE HEE!* more and more i am getting less and less excited bout the actual day i turn 30, and more excited bout after. i am in a bday funk. i wanted the day off from everything, and that isnt gonna happen. i have all this shit i gotta do i dont want to. i think i’ll have two or three hours that i dont have to give my attention to anyone else. maybe i’ll go to bed early and get on with being 30…that doesnt sound like a bad plan at all! i did get some really cute gifts (i like getting them when they are 1st purchased, not waiting for a month after its bought and wondering.) i love my little miss molly and everyone who sees my new phine holder always goes crazy and is like “Where on earth did you get that?!? that is so cute and I have never seen anything like that!”.

toni got me some really nice scented candles that I LOVE so much! she hated that store! the store smells VERY STRONG and they have about 100 different varieties so all those scents mingle together candles, soaps, oils, perfumes, room sprays, and aromatherapy it can be overwhelming! she and ami made me smell this nasty caramel candle and it was so bad i think it burnt my nose hair! we had fun!

I want chocolate tuxedo strawberries and deluxe rockyroad caramel apple from the rocky mountain chocolate company up at the legends shopping center. but i may go out and gt them for myself on tuesday…my gift to myself for being done with my awful bday. i know this is all very emo, but i’m just waiting for it all to be done with! i want a bunch of balloons too, but i just cant see buying myself 25 bday balloons that would be so sad! but i may go out and get 2 of those 16 in. balloons ami picked 4 toni’s bday. I was so upset that it popped b4 toni could see it. but toni sure did enjoy the long phallic yellow one, she kept stroking it and doin all sort of suggestive things to it. it was the 1st 1 to start drooping (it couldn’t keep UP with her! *grins*). but those balloons i got her on tuesday around lunch time were still floating really well Friday when we left work…the high float was supposed to keep them up 4 24-48 hours. they lasted almost 2x that long. tuesday things will be better…I hope!
