Quote of the Day

On a recent trip to BJ's with MySis and POUND CAKE - we pull in the parking lot and the pungent air held something nasty... We go in do our business and are on our way back to the car... The air got heavier with the stench of something awful.. We could not put our finger on one single smell - or so we thought.

That is when MySis exclaims, "oh my god, I smell Gorilla"

Wanted!!!!!

One Sugar Daddy......

It is my turn... I want someone to look after me for a change. I am always the one responsible for everyone... But no one is looking out for me.

Is it so wrong to want a vacation from responsibility?

I just want my bills paid, my feet rubbed among other things, and anything else my little heart desires.

Applications are now being accepted.....Job starts immediately.

When It Rains It Pours!!!!

So my adventured continued all day yesterday....

My car was fixed and ready for me to pick it up about noon (yeah)......I get dressed and had my sister take me to the dealership. I get there, pay the ransom ($299.18) and was on my merry way. Had a couple errands to run, went to the bank and the store... By this time it's 3pm. Fine no problem I can still get a bunch of stuff accomplished, the sun was out... I decided to wear my capris and a low cut shirt (the girls were happy to get some sun).

I needed to get an oil change (I was not going to pay $29 at the dealership) so I went to Sears, where I also need to get my tires rotated (I have a plan with them). When I get there my friend, K, was there we chatted for a bit... He knew why I was there without me telling him....He checked under my hood, filter etc...He noticed that the anti-freeze Reservoir was out of place and had spilled anti-freeze all over the engine. Toyota tech probably did that when replacing the timing belt. K also noticed that I needed a belt (can't remember the name right now).. Anyway... I called Toyota to let them know and they said bring the car back so they could fix it... Bullshit... I have shit to do, I would just have Sears do it and take the receipt to them. It only cost 3.99 to top the antifreeze off so I don't think I am going to kill myself to get the receipt back to them....

So an hour and a half later my car was almost ready for me... I called POUND CAKE to see if she wanted to hang and cause trouble with me. She said sure and I waited for her at Sears. Originally I was not suppose to be ready until about 6:30 but a half hour earlier and I am sitting in the parking lot.

I don't know why... But something told me look for your registration... So I open the glovebox and pull out that I thought was the new registration...I actually emptied the entire thing went but no such luck. No Registration - Damn it to high heaven... Now consider...I did not need my registration, it's not like I was getting a sticker or anything... I was just waiting for PC to get there...

So now I am racking my brain... Where the hell could it be. I look up down and crossway but nothing.. I called home and had my mom check her bag, since she was with me the day I was suppose to have put it in the box... But she said it was not in her bag... Just my luck...

I went on and did what I had to do.... Now in all of them my brakes have been making a god awful noise, considering they are new brakes about a year old. So now I need to get my ass back to the shop to have that checked out. (Which is where I am suppose to be right now).

We had dinner at TGIF - after all errands were done...PC, her brother and me. When I got home at 11:30. Something told me check my bank account online - and damn if the check that I did a stop payment on was received and returned on the same day that the replacement check posted... And the fucking bank returned that as well... What a way to end my fucking day.

I was glad the day was done... But damn it if I don't have to do some serious damage control today. RMV here I come - and that customer service bitch that would not help me last night with a simple question at 6:59...Go ahead and fuck with me today.... After the day I had yesterday, bring it on bitch.

Life's a Bitch!

So yesterday evening - I decided to go run some errands... when I started my car I sounded a little funny (considering I don't really pay much to noises, as long as it starts and moves I am happy - I am a mechanic dream). So I was able to run a couple of errands and decided to go home. I figured I would take the car to the shop in the morning.

One of my errands involved picking up a trashy romance novel (got get the romance somewhere huh)... anyway, I got a bit side tracked reading. I put the book down sometime around 7am. Now considering I am suppose to take the car to get checked out early morning.....Well I did fall asleep and finally got up about 10am.

So I get ready and go out to start the car... by now the sun is hot as hell and I am sweating like a pig. But I tried starting the car and nothing. I had to call AAA to tow it to the shop - thank god it is just down the street. So I go see my friend at the Toyota service center....

That was the funniest exchange -

Me: I blame you for this -you jinxed me.
Guy: Me what did I do?
Me: You told me I had major problems that need to be fixed....
Guy: He laughs....
Me: Just make sure whatever is wrong it is under $100
Guy: He laughs....

30-45 minutes later...
Guy: Ok well - you timing belt is broken and it is going to cost about 350 to fix it.
Me: No (in my head - that is bullshit)... I just had that replaced her a little while ago.
Guy: I'll check on it...

15 minutes later.....
Guy: Ok I have good news and bad news
Me: What
Guy: The bad news is that we need to keep your car over night...
Me: No, no... why can you fix today
Guy: Well the person who is going to fix it is working on a car right now..and he won't be able to start and finish your car today.
Me: well he better get crackalacking.. cause I need my car...
Guy: We do you want to hear the good news or not...
Me: fine fine...what is the good news..
Guy: We did replace your timing belt in March so it is still it will not cost you to have it fixed.
Me: Are you serious....

I started dancing and smiling and dancing...

Me: You just made my day, I could hug you....and that is exactly what I did.

God loves me... cause he knew that I could not handle shelling out more money to fix my car.

And just yesterday I said to my mother - I am going to have to buy a new car.

The Things You Do.....

I hate hospitals...

My sister asked me to take my nephew to his allergy appointment today. However, she failed to inform me that he was being tested today.

It started off all wrong.... I did not find out the appointment time until 9am and the we had to be at the hospital for 11am (I hate that shit). At least she gave me a note giving me permission to be there an authorize the damn test. And then the question, the one they always ask......"So why is he being seen today"? I did not know, cause she did not tell me. I just had the doctor call her and she gave him the background information that he needed. (yeah like I was suppose to know all that shit). Now that was out of the way and the doc said the nurse will be in shortly to administer the test.

The good news is that I'm already familiar with the allergy testing stuff - since my little sister has been through the process.

Long story short, my nephew is allergic to everything under the sun.... Mold, Mice, Cats, Dogs, Dust Mites, Feathers, Trees, Grass.... Peanuts, Treenuts, Coconuts, and Sesames. I mean he is screwed with the indoor stuff and screwed with the outdoor stuff.

I feel sorry for the poor kid.....But how do you tell a 5 year he is allergic to everything.

Dreams

What is it about a dream that can freak the hell out of you or make you want to go back for more....?

Well the other day (yes, this was a nap time dream). I was on an airplane and was getting freaky with Busta Rhymes... Of all people. I mean I don't know why but conveniently there was a bed on the plane. I was totally naked and riding him like a stallion. Then I woke up when the phone rang.

What do you think it means? I can only wonder.

Damn, I'm Hot

Why did I pick today to clean the house? I don't have central air so my house is like a sauna right now. There are only 2 windows in the living room - so not much air is coming in that way. The front door is open as well.. And I am sweating like a pig... I mean I was just standing still and the sweat was running off of me.

Anyway...I am hoping to clean and rearrange the entire house today so that I can just simply relax tomorrow (since it is going to be even hotter tomorrow)... Don't get me wrong, this is not way a complaint about it being hot. I just generally don't sweat in the heat unless the humidity is over the top. Being from an island in the Caribbean.. I love warm weather..... In the island there is always a breeze and where I lived, I could be at the beach in a matter of minutes.. Don't have that luxury at the moment.....

Oh well, such is life - Back to cleaning.

So I went out tonight

So I was out tonight - with LEGS.... I actually made an effort to look pretty. I work my white linen skirt suit... The one with the low cut blouse (lets just say The Girls were enjoying the breeze). I wore my hear down, it is getting pretty long again (long for me), it is slightly past my shoulders. Anyway, I looked hot.... Yeah baby. I am not a vain person by any means... But you have to experience the Fabulousness that is Me.

So we ended up going to Marina Bay in Quincy..... I've never actually been there, it was really nice... And the fact that it was a beautiful warm evening was just perfect. The boats in the marina had some lights and the boardwalk with pretty clear... A few of the restaurants were packed. The crowd seemed young, but then again I am a really bad judge of age. I did see some cute me however they were with women.

Let's talk about the women I saw - most of them were skinny bitches - some of them looked nasty but most of them just had ginormous boobs and tiny waists.... The issue I have with the skinny bitches is that clothes that they wear... I mean damn, if you're gonna wear a skirt that barely covers your ass, don't bend over. Yeah, I did not need to see that... And what is with the thong that is so tight that it is cutting off the blood flow to lower half of your body - the point of a thong is to appear to not have on underwear right? Your not suppose to see it...I mean if that is the case, don't wear anything at all. But I guess that is want men like -- oh well..

I am not, nor will I ever be a skinny bitch who wears thongs that are too tight or skirts that are so short I could catch a cold. I actually like having full breast and hips. I could do without the stomach but that is my only complaint. But other than that, I am happy with what god gave me. And he blessed me at a young age... I've have boobs since I was 7 or 8 years old - as long as I can remember, The Girls have been with me.

There I go again rambling on an on...... Oh well... I may have had too much to drink cause I can't remember where I was going with this... Maybe I'll remember tomorrow (or should I say later today)

Relaxing

Hung out with a friend of mine this evening....(lets call her POUND CAKE). I went to her house and we chatted until she left to meet up with a friend of hers that was visiting from out of town.

She is a really sweet down to earth girl who enjoys life... She has a good head on her shoulders.
It was a good evening - It is always fun to hang with her, she makes me laugh.... I can actually be myself and there is no judgment....

You should meet her she is "good people"

Crazy Ass Drivers

What the hell is wrong with people... Don't they understand that a car can hurt people. I was on my way home a little while ago... Minding my own damn business when the car was just driving in the middle of the damn road... I mean, I understand that there were parked cars on the side of the road and you should avoid them, but which would you rather hit... Another moving vehicle or a parked car. I would opt for the parked car. So fine, I did my best to get out of the way (that is without hitting the sidewalk)...

But then, another ass runs a stop sign and almost took me out... What the fuck!!! Was I not suppose to be outside today... I mean the kid (yes I mean kid, he looked like he was under 20) did not even blink or acknowledge what he just did... I mean, are they just giving licenses to anyone these days.

Well...Better I express my anger here than on the road.... Yes I think this medium is much better.

Damn if I don't have to go back outside in a little while - wish me luck

The Good Life

So I was just on instant message with a friend, MY TWIN, who lives in New Jersey but works in New York... And she just sprung on me the fact that she is working late because, are you ready for this, she is going to a Janet Jackson cocktail reception - yes you read it correctly... US mag is have a cocktail party for Ms. Jackson and MY TWIN will be there.. .hobknobbing with all these celebs.... The Good Life, I aspire.

Bitter Sweet

Well.... The day started off with a deployment ceremony. That was a little draining.

Came home and took a nap - I am still not feeling well, the cough does not seem to be going away. But like my friends keep telling me... Go to the doctor. I will get there eventually, I promise.

Ladies Night - June

Last night, Ladies Night was a raving success again... The one that was scheduled for May was cancelled. We had a blast. It was really nice to take time to spend with the girls...Who are the sweetest people in the world. We all brought something to either eat or drink... This time I made my sweet and spicy chicken (not as spicy as I had hoped) but good non the less, as well as regular fried chicken...Mostly finger food.. We also had salad, chips and salsa, bacon rapped scallops, bread stick with artichoke dip, and wine. I think we went through about 3 or 4 bottles of wine. The conversations was good as well....... Looks like we might have 2 weddings next year..(that's not official yet) but it is looking pretty good. I am so excited... Can't wait.

We finally got to see SMARTS wedding video... She and hubby ran off to the Bahamas last July 19 and got hitched. The video was spectacular... They got married right on the beach, her dress was gorgeous and so was she (tanned and looking beautiful as ever). He was handsome in his linen suit... They make such a lovely couple. I can't believe that it's going to be a year since they got married. It was really nice seeing her, since we don't get to see her very often, she just doesn't get to most of the get togethers... But this was the first time in a long time that we were all here. I can't believe that these girls (I should say women) are the girls that I met when I was in high school (were are talking 1988/1989). It is awesome that we keep in touch with each other.

If that was not enough - we decided to go to a bar. We all met up at
The Blarney Stone for more drinks... I did not want to go since I was not dress for the public let along a bar where they could possibly be cute boys..Then I remembered that (see "I am still here" post), so I went.....Only had one drink, which was not problem since I was close to home. All in all the evening was fun....

Putting up with it

I don't know what is going on but I am sick again. I made the mistake of going out in the rain on Wednesday night in open toed shoes and not a damn thing on my hear. So when I woke up on Thursday morning with a hacking cough and a throat that was on fire... I had only myself to blame...For you see, I was trying to look cute (always seems to land me in trouble).

Anyway.. With that cough and fire throat came a horrible headache.....So last night after spending the majority of the night awake... Finally decided to take some heavy duty drugs... Tylenol would not do for this one... I could just feel it. I had to whip out the Butabital/ASP/caffeine combo drug (that is the actual name on the bottle). Needless to say, I was floating for a bit... every time I closed my eyes the room would spin... So I figured watch some tv but the room was still spinning. So when 5 am rolled around and I was still spinning and awake I had to draw the line.....

2 hours later I was up and operating heavy machinery.... Got through that no problems, came back home and slept some more. I've been up since about 10 am and feeling a bit better. Have stuff to do today. So I can't afford to be sick anymore. (At times like this I wish I had suggadaddy to take care of my financial needs)

HA

Look at that shit... it is 06-07-06. As you can see shit is still working, the world has not come to an end. People can be so strange sometimes. When the world does comes to an end I don't think any of us are going to even realize.

06-06-06

First I have to say -- I don't believe in all that superstitious crap...To believe give this crap its power. That said...

Here is my horoscope for today: 06-06-06

You're likely to be looking and feeling beautiful and sexy today, and you're also likely to be "feeling your oats," as today you are particularly aware of your own inner power. If you've been thinking about asking for a raise, do it today. If you've been hoping for a romantic getaway, this is the day to plan it. Whatever you start today is likely to be successful, more because of your own determination than anything else.

Nice don't you think :-)

I am still here!!!

The only thing I can say is that thank god my Chemistry.com account is about to be closed. I swear I've never wasted money like this... I could have had a couple pairs of kick ass shoes with that money.

It can't be me... I received over 260 matches and yes I expressed interest in a good number of them. At least some of them clicked that they were not interested (the only way to know is that they disappear from your active match list). The others I am still waiting to hear from...

I am so done. With the online dating crap, with everything.... Men are stupid and I can be bothered anymore..... They can all kiss my ass.
