Happy Days

After my last post, I needed to write something happier. I don't want to worry anyone and I certainly don't want to freak out Slutty Hoe. I mean, have you ever seen a Slutty Hoe Freaked out before?! Its not pretty. Clothes start flying, people run and scream for their lives, the seas turn purple, the streets run with nacho cheese; its a big ole mess. Worse than the 3 mile island incident that happened on the very day yours truly was born. Yep. While mom was pushing me out of her uterus, there were people freaking over a nuclear "incident" somewhere else in the country. But that's not what I want to talk about today. Oh No. I am going to try to keep this post happy and light. Shouldn't be too hard since I feel happier than I did last week.


I am not, generally, an unhappy person. This blog certainly doesn't prove that by any means, but those of you who know me in "real life", know that I can plaster a smile on my face and have a good time pretty much anywhere, anytime, with anybody. I'm easy going, patient, smart, and have the occasional funny fall out of my mouth. I don't seem to have a problem making or keeping good, life long friends. My hubby, although un-intelligent, neglectful, and sometimes an asshole, does not hurt me physically in any way. One of the best things to happen recently is I finally made a friend of my own here in the Burque. So, my life isn't so bad. Really. It could be worse. I know there are lots of people out in this big ole tiny world that have a life incredibly worse than mine. Its hard to remember that when your having a shitty ass week, though. Oh and BTW, I was surfin the crimson wave last week, so I'm sure that had a lot to do with me being ruled by emotion more than my usual logic.


So what has happened in the week between these posts that have made such a big difference? Well, for one, my hormones stopped doing the mackerena in my brain. That helped. Also, I got to spend lots of time with Slutty Hoe over the weekend. We had the best time EVER!!! We watched Monty Python's Meaning of Life, (which the hubby hates, so we vary rarely watch it when its just him and I), we got to hang out and talk lots, and the highlight of my weekend........I got to go to a Celtic Festival!! I told Slutty Hoe this, but I am still so thankful that I have to say it again. I would have never got to go to that festival if it wasn't for Slutty Hoe and Her man. (Fuck it, Lets call him Lord Dragon. If he ever reads this, he will know why I gave him that name. Slutty Hoe, feel free to tell him about it. You know what? Never mind. I email him all day long, I'll tell him. Sucka) Seriously. The hubby thought it was a Renaissance Fest, and he "doesn't like those". I remember once, a long time ago, I came to visit him here and we caught the tail end of a renaissance fair in one of the parks. He really didn't seem to mind it then. *shrug* Oh well. If it wasnt for Slutty Hoe and Lord Dragon, I would have had to go by my lonesome, and where is the fun in that? What he ended up missing was a shit load of kick ass bagpipers, tons of people (men and women alike) in kilts, some...Different...Sporting competitions, like the giant log toss. (If anyone reading this can explain that one to me, I would be grateful) Slutty Hoe bought the prettiest Celtic cross necklace, Lord Dragon got a really cool chain, and I bought my very first sword. That's right. A Sword. Hilt, blade and everything. The Hilt has a Ram's Head on it. Me, being the lovely Aires I am, born under the Chinese zodiac of the goat, figured this was the weapon for me. Its not a perfect killing tool, but I'm sure if I stabbed a mo fo with it, he would go down. Its not like I need more home protection anyways. I mean with the several guns, two dogs, and some cast iron skilletts, all easily accessible, you would have to be crazy indeed to come into my casa uninvited. Pfft. Like there has ever been ANYBODY not invited into my casa. That is one thing I do like about the hubby still. He is just as inviting as I am. He is just as free with whatever he has as I am. All my friends know that if they need anything, including the shirt off my back, they can have it. (I'll hold my nipples in, so you all don't get your eyes poked out.) I think that's the way people should be. If we were all a little more willing to be hospitable, wouldn't the world be a little better place? Sure it would.

I just got word from Lord Dragon and he's cool with the name.
Yay! I figured he would be. That man. Wow. Can I say that again? Yes? Okay. WOW. If perfection was able to walk this earth, it would be embodied in him. I know that sounds bad. Trust me, I have no romantic feelings for this man. I have loved him like a brother for years before he and Slutty Hoe hooked up. I cant see him as anything but a brother. But he makes Slutty Hoe so happy. I don't think I have seen her this happy in a very long time. The last man to make her happy, for one, was not always a nice man. And for two, I don't think he ever made her nearly as happy as Lord Dragon does. Its satisfying to me to see them together and content. I don't know what the future holds for either one of them. Hell, I don't even know what the future holds for me, but I think these two have a chance. Better chance than any who have walked in LD's shoes before. Even with all the things I'm dealing with in my life (to be gone over at a later time) I cant help but smile when I think about them two. No matter how shitty my mood, or day, the thought that there is a man out there who is treating my sis the way she deserves, and the way she has needed to be treated for a long time, makes my heart warm and gives me hope.

Speaking of sis, here is a little note, just for you. I read your thingy on myspace about how you and I almost stopped talking. Seems to me like you still carry a bit of guilt around for that, and you shouldn't. It was a long time ago, I have moved on, and you should too. I'm going to love you no matter what happens in our lives. You are a good person who has made some mistakes, but, hunny, everyone does. I cant hold them against you and wouldn't even if I could. You support me in my decisions, I'll support you in yours, even if they hurt me, because I want you to be happy. So please, don't let that hang over your head anymore. What's done is done and I believe our friendship and sisterhood came out stronger because of it. You are my best friend, counselor, ice cream buddy, partner in crime, and savior. I love you.

Rain Drops Keep Falling On My Head

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting


Dude, I woke up this morning and decided that I was going to have a good day. I have been having such shitty ass days, that I finally had enough. I decided that no matter what happened today I would greet it with a smile, patience, and with a rational attitude. Then I actually GET into work and TRAVIS has sent me 3 fucking videos that completely took up my entire storage space in my work email address!! I only got the videos from him, one fucking spam message, and 2 notifications that my inbox was full. WTF???? I forwarded 1 message to him yesterday. A message, not a video, and then all yesterday afternoon I got mainly video messages from him that were HUGE! Does he save them all up and send them out at once? Was he possibly going thru his collection and sending me all the ones he thought I would like? Doesn't he know I'm at work and cant even WATCH half the fucking videos that are passed around??? Sorry to rant on you hun, I just needed to vent. I was expecting emails from suppliers and all sorts of other work related shit this morning and instead I open up my box and find 5 messages where I usually have over 30. Just an example of what an inconsiderate asshole Travis can be. Thoughtless, just like most men. (I said most. I know that there are a few of you guys out there that actually are considerate, thoughtful, and have more brains than God gave a door knob. But to be honest, you are kind of a rarity)

Next, I get paid today, right? I'm supposed to have direct deposit. I have HAD direct deposit since I started here, 4 flippin years ago. Well, since we lost our payroll clerk, we started outsourcing our paychecks. So this morning instead of a pay stub and a full bank account, I have a check made out to a different name than what is on my account and 68 bucks in the bank. Gr. My boss says the names shouldn't be a problem. I hope the fuck not. Even if it isnt a problem, I still have to spend MY lunch hour at the bank. If it IS a problem, I'll have to grab my damn marriage certificate from the house tonight, then tell my boss that due to the outsourcing company's fuck up I need the afternoon off tomorrow to do a name change at the bank. Otherwise the check they just gave me today is totally fucking useless and I just worked last week for FREE.

I tried!!! I tried to start off my day good. Its not even 9 am yet and today already sucks. Sucks, and what really sucks out loud is all of it, ALL of the shitty ass things so far are beyond my control and were put into motion before I even crawled out of bed today. No matter how hard I try to stay positive, sometimes I feel like I'm constantly the bug and never the windshield.

I hope your day is going good so far slutty hoe. Are you still walking on cloud 9? :o) I cant even begin to explain how totally and completely happy I am for you, baby. I knew you would find a good man & that there was one out there that would be perfect for you. I think this one might be it. He is the whole deal. Funny, friendly, a gentleman, handsome, good person, good daddy, all rolled into one 6-packed, buffed out package. (No discussions about his actual "package"...the guy is already like a brother to me LOL)

And you, Miss Hobbit? I hope everything is groovy in your neck of the office. :o) How are my Nephew and Neice doing? You know, I tried to steal your idea of a naked nap, but the hubby was too busy doing stuff outside, so I took one by myself. I don't think its nearly as fun as it would be to have someone else with you, but I did get the bed all to myself. That was a treat all in its own.

Sorry to rant to you guys. I really wanted to have a good day today. I still might. They haven't broken me down yet. But dammit. Its not starting off that good and I'm so totally scared that its only going to get worse and then I'll end up in tears. Ah well, you know what? Fuck it. The worse thing that could happen to me here at work is that I get fired. In which case I would laugh in their fucking faces, go home, and do some Yeager shots.

Discussion.....

Okay, I'll give you a question, you discuss it:
If curiosity killed the cat and satisfaction brought him back, does that mean if your cat dies you can feed him a snickers and he will come back to life?
Also, who is this curiosity person and why is he going around killing cats?! That Bastard!

The Saga of Princess Maria...

I wrote this for Maria when she was having a bad day and it cheered her up, so I thought in lieu of a "real" post today I would just share "The Continuing Saga of Princess Maria"...enjoy!

Once upon a time there was a sweet princess named Maria. She was beautiful, smart, and funny, but she had no prince in her life, so she was sad. To help her feel better her maids-a-waiting, Tonina, Josharina, and Anjarooni decided to hold a prince dance. That way Princess Maria could have her pick of all the available Princes.

The night of the dance came and all the handsome princes (and even a few of the fugly ones that weren't invited, but decided to crash the dance anyways) began arriving. Princess Maria watched them arrive from her tower window, so far not spotting any one that caught her eye. When she thought the last coach arrived, she turned to go down stairs and meet her guests, but she heard the sound of tires squealing. She ran back to the window in time to see a Bright Red Dodge Viper come skidding sideways into the drive way. Princess Maria was mesmerized by the car. Her eyes widened when she saw the handsome Prince that got out of the Viper. Sure, he looked a little like Linus from the Peanuts gang, but he was the most gorgeous man Princess Maria had ever laid eyes on. (At that moment, her eyes were not the only things she wanted to "lay" on him, but we will get back to that)

Rushing down stairs to introduce herself to the handsome prince in the Viper, Princess Maria tripped on the hem of her very expensive and oversized gown and went tumbling down the stairs! Oh NO! Tonina, Josharina, and Anjarooni rush to her side to make sure she was okay. Luckily the massive amount of dress Princess Maria was wearing worked like an air bag and cushioned her terrible fall down the stairs. Princess Maria, being awfully embarrassed at falling, ordered everyone's heads to be cut off so that no one would ever tell of the embarrassment she just had to suffer. Everyone except for Tonina, Josharina, and Anjarooni, since they were already sworn to secrecy for other "Indiscretions". Right then the Handsome Prince, who looked like Linus and drove a Viper, walked thru the door. Since all the other princes had been be-headed, he was the sole prince left at the party. He bowed low in front of Princess Maria.

"My dear lady, what a nice collection of severed heads you have" he coo'd at her.

"Why, thank you handsome prince. You should see my bathroom" she said in her most sultry voice. "What is your name, hotpants?"

"I am Prince Justin, of the Farmington Clan. I have traveled many miles at top speeds to attend your dance and to win your heart" he said.

"Please to meet you, Prince Justin of the Farmington Clan. Is that a lyre in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" Princess Maria giggled.

"I'm just happy to see you" Prince Justin replied.

By this time Tonina, Josharina, and Anjarooni have thouroughly checked out the Viper and decide that this is the Prince for their beloved Princess. They quickly call up the royal minister before either the princess or the prince have a chance to change their minds, or figure out what's going on, and get him to come to the castle right away. Changing of minds does not seem to be a problem since Princess Maria and Prince Justin have already started going at it like they are recently released prison rabbits in heat. Before there is anything more than heavy breathing or heavy panting, the minister marries the two royals, who then collapse on the floor in a mess of clothes, flesh, sloppy kissing noises, and for some reason tic tacs. Who knows with royals. Tonina, Josharina, and Anjarooni are happy their princess is happy and getting some again, which means considerable less be-headings around the palace. Totally disgusted, the minister leaves the princess and prince on the floor to continue their debauchery. Tonina, Josharina, and Anjarooni go to the local pub and wait for the screams of pleasure signaling the princess is about done for the night, before returning to clean up the sticky mess left behind by the two royals. Prince Justin and Princess Maria continued their long, happy relationship until Princess Maria discovered naughty toys and Prince Justin discovered that comfort comes in a little blue blankie.
The moral of the story?? Dont let Anj tell stories when its almost the end of the day and she is bored.

**By the way, I promised Slutty Ho I would write a story about her too, so be sure to tune back in!!Clickity Click Click Poo!!**
