Ok, so Chris’s friend Shawn has been involved with the girl named Rachel off and on for a few years now. She is the mother of his daughter and he is the adopted(sort of) father of her son. He loves and takes care of that boy like he was his son…and the little boy calls him Daddy. She just recently had another baby by another man (they had been broken up awhile). But I think Shawn is still in love with her, and hopes they will end up as one big happy family…the white picket fence and all that!

I guess the baby daddy wasn’t being as helpful as Shawn thought he should so Shawn took over when she went into labor. Shawn was the one who took her to the hospital, and when the baby daddy got to the hospital he told him to stay the fuck outta the delivery room! Shawn stayed with her in the delivery room (no, it wasn’t his baby and he supposedly doesn’t love her)!

So this woman was in jail when Shawn’s daughter was born, so Shawn wasn’t there when his daughter was born. So I guess to him it was like being there for the birth of his daughter(this one was a girl as well). But then Shawn had to be the one to take her to the hospital every day to deliver the pumped breast milk and to visit the baby (cause it was born premature). Whether or not they left the other two kids with the crack head baby daddy I’m not sure. But my question is why was it Shawn’s responsibility? Who had the older kids? Is Shawn gonna continue to pay all the bills, or is the worthless crackhead who knocked her up gonna do anything to help support his kid? This shit is like a soap opera! Enjoy!!!

I added widget to the site which will display the five most recent twitter posts from Vanessa..

I wonder how long before she notices?

So yesterday my mom-in-law and I were headed to work and I said something about the upcoming snow and she said it wasnt gonna snow. I told yes it was gonna snow the only question was how much. she again stated it would miss us, and I told her we were supposed to get between 4-8 inches of snow and she bit my head off and said it wasn’t gonna snow ’cause she had to get her hair cut tomorrow. She likes to bend her reality to what she wants to happen. I call it Toniville!

Plus she made a bet with one of the drivers that it wasn’t going to snow this morning, so I think it’s kinda funny. I don’t know if it counts that the snow happened around noon, but I’m sure I will find out. It was icing ever since I got up, that is much worse than snow in my humble opinion! (like I would ever be humble…hee hee)

Death Penalty Website…

So I was reading this article about how New Mexico has changed it’s mind about it’s death penalty…and at then end it said that Kansas was thinking about a similar plan, and that it had been sent to committee on Monday. So I wasn’t sure which states had the death penalty so I looked it up. what I found was this fun filled site that has an interactive map with the states and you click on the state and it tells you all you want to know about the death penalty (or lack thereof)…how many inmates…and the method. It is quite entertaining! Especially Oklahoma…can you say firing squad?…if it’s deemed constitutional. How do you get to be in on that discussion?!? Sign me up! I’m a pretty good shot…can you paint a red bullseye on the criminal? Give out points for who gets the closest to a bullseye. Instead of giving the convict the blindfold give the shooters blindfolds…make it fun. Then it would be like a test of skill…similar to playing darts in a crowded, smoky bar after having a few shots. Nothing says an execution has to be dull for those of us who will be surviving it. Liven things up a bit…after all we are taking scum off the streets.

Just my opinion anyway!!! Whatever that’s worth. I wonder if I should just send the senators and the Governor a link to this site, then they could see how I feel about them taking away the death penalty here in Kansas. I am against it…big time! Keep the death penalty and keep me happy (after all, after reading this do you really want me unhappy?)

I know I am kinda beating a dead horse here, but this time I am referring to myself! Big shocker there…I’m ranting about myself! So I give Chris a ton of shit ’cause he is always on Facebook(not as often as he used to be, but still waaay to often in my opinion). And anyone who has ever read my shit for any length of time knows my feelings about social networking sites (gathering spots for the lonely and pathetic).

Well it’s official…I’m a hypocrite! I have been introduced to the wonders of www.twitter.com I love to tweet! I find myself tweeting three to five times a day! I even had Chris put it on my phone so if anything exciting happens I can tweet right away. Hello, my name is Vanessa and I’m a twitter whore! *Hello Vanessa!* So last night he was calling me a tweet whore and I called him a Facebook whore. They say when a couple has pet names for one another, it builds a stronger bond…ours has to be rock freaking solid!

hypocrite
–noun
1. a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, esp. a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.
2. a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, esp. one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements

Why is that in my life the word family seems synonymous with the word hypocrite? I have never had a warm and fuzzy relationship with my family, but why is it that after 30 some years on this planet I can’t get away from this shitty reality? When I try to cut them some slack, I always end up disappointed.

Why do I care, one might ask. That answer is both simple and hard. Family pressure, setting an example for my own daughter, wanting to bury the hatchet and start over, or sometimes it’s just to prove to myself that they really are that judgmental and small minded. Do one thing say another…what is good for me isn’t good for you! Do what I say not what I do. It seems to me like I am stuck in this situation as I can’t get rid of families.

Besides I like my husband and kid…that’s all the family I ever need!!! Too bad that can’t be enough!

The mechanics dream!!!

I am so sick and tired of this shit with the truck it is getting old…the only thing I can see (Chris always likes to look on the positive side of things) good coming out of all of this, is when it is all said and done we will have a new truck (rebuilt, but new). Everything keeps breaking. We fix one thing and another goes wrong. It is enough to make me want to pull a monster garage on it and blow it into a million little pieces. Don’t get me wrong I love the truck…but it’s killing me! When we are finished we will have spent as much as buying a new vehicle.

Better than walking I guess…especially since I can’t walk very well right now (broken foot).

Ok, so I read this article about the former vice presidential candidate’s daughter…and how her and her fiancée broke up. They felt that they had some growing up to do. They couldn’t have decided that BEFORE they added more idiot republican DNA to the gene pool! And coming from Sarah Palin’s winning brood…that kids gonna do GREAT!!! The boy’s other grandma got arrested a few weeks before he was born ’cause she was dealing in methamphetamine’s or something similar. This kid Tripp Johnston has two loser Grandmothers (both of whom failed miserably in the public eye…one politically, the other politically motivated I’m sure but it was cause she was an idiot crack whore), two teenage parents who run at the first sign of adversity, and a brood of aunts and uncles equally as toothless and brainless as the parents and grandparents! He hasn’t got a chance! And that name…it isn’t a noun, it’s a verb! He’s gonna be so confused when it comes to kindergarten. I hate this family(in case us hadn’t guessed it)! I’m not a republican!

I think it would be funny if it turned out that Sarah Palin’s kids registered to vote Democrat! Or even better…her husband! The spineless toad that he is! I’m glad she is in Alaska…that way Canada separates here from the rest of us normal folk!

I am tired of listening to all of the drama going on at my work…when I’m there it’s all panic panic panic, and when I’m gone I get to hear all the shit that went on while I was gone! Then there is the “will I still have a job today?” drama.

I think I have broken my foot which sucks! but the good thing is I have experience with this and a really good foot Dr. The last time I broke it it took almost three months to heal and I had to get a cortisone shot in the top of my foot in order to get it to heal. That sucked ass! But I guess we’ll see after the x-ray.

My kid is on spring break…I miss the days when I got to enjoy spring break and summer vacation. that was fun…what was even better was when I was working for a school district and i got paid for that time and didn’t have to work…ah good times! Too bad I had to work for a group of sexist pigs who were verbally abusive! I wanna go swimming.

In all my years on the computer I have used many instant messenger programs ranging from AIM, ICQ, MSN,YAHOO, and Google Talk.. including all in one messengers such as ODIGO, Trillian and Pidgin… but I have never messed with Video chat…. EVER…

Not sure why.. but I decided to download Skype and use the webcams I have here in my office. I only have a few friends I speak to whom have Skype and one of them I haven’t seen in a few years. (even though he lives a few miles away)

It’s kind of cool now that I have it up and running.. the only person I have spoken to is my friend whom lives up the street and I haven’t seen in years… but it was still cool…

I have a new hobby… and I can even use it on my cel phone… *grins*

I think he might kill me once he finds out this picture is on here… *laughs*
