We are living in a material world, and I am a material girl…
February 21st, 2009Don’t think I mean materialistic, because I don’t THINK I am that hardly at all…I just thrive on the material of life…and I have tons of material that infests my brain often like a plague. I have some things that I want to share…Kinda like 25 Random Things on Facebook (which I have done 2x), but these are more like things that I think about during the day…
First, why do people talk on the mobile phones in public bathrooms? Okay, so I understand that maybe YOU don’t mind sharing your business with friends, family member, colleagues, bill collectors, whomever, but do you really have to share my business too? If I am blowing my nose (and I do it loudly!), I don’t want your bros to hear. Likewise, it I am tee-teeing or taking a big dump. Please just think of that when you decide to chat up in the bathroom. You FREAKING DOUCHEBAG!
Okay, next, on the same bathroom vein, I have two bathroom pet peeves. First, I can’t stand it when the toilet paper unrolls from under. You know what I mean, the paper is coming from the backside of the roll. And it makes it hard to find the end, and it just annoys me. Replace the toilet paper with the tag rolling from the front. The top. Do it right! I don’t know anyone who prefers toilet paper from the under. I’ve done a bit of querying on this, and it seems that people either don’t care or they want it from the top. So do the ones who care a favor! Second, when I am in a public restroom and there are multiple rolls of toilet paper to choose from, I always have to use the one that has the least amount of paper left. I don’t know why, I just do. Likewise, if there is a loose roll around, I use it before I use the TP on the dispenser, UNLESS the TP on the dispenser is almost gone, then I will use it. Like you care.
So has this diatribe on the shitting habits of others caused your Periodic Vomit yet? I think I am getting sick.
And with that, I am done today! Peace Out!
And, she’s back…
February 19th, 2009After a ridiculouly long hiatus, doing things like buying the house, getting married, experiencing life, I am able to blog again.
And today I have nothing of any significance to say. Except thanks to my HUSBAND for getting me up and running again!

Vomit worthy (p2)
May 7th, 2008I also realized that I forgot to take my meds yesterday.
Today is vomit worthy
May 7th, 2008So work up today and it was kind of yucky outside. Overcast. Looks better now, but my day already started with the bummer, so the sun shining through the clouds doesn’t quite make up for it. I am also tired. It seems like every day I wake up tired. Then I realized that we “Sprung forward” and it is actually earlier than the clock says. Could it be that I still have not gotten accustomed to the time change? It sure feels like it. Then I realized as I was looking for some socks that one of my darling kitties has used my sock basket (yes, basket as I do not have enough drawers to put them in) as a litter box. Pee pee only. The stench made me sad. And also made me wonder where else, in this huge house that we are staying in, may have kitty surprises. Sigh.
We had a home inspection yesterday on a potential prospect (duh, right? why would we have an inspection on anything other than a potential prospect….and is that a redundancy?). It was the most favorable inspection we have had. And they did find some little (?) problems. And everyone (including the inspector) is telling me that there are ALWAYS going to be some problems. [So I should just suck it up and buy something that I know will need SOMETHING fixed? I recognize that there is NO WAY that an inspection will find absolutely everything, so not only are there these little things that we now know will need to be fixed, but what could be looming?] I do want to give props to our inspector, Mr. Steve Hancock with National Property Inspectors. Wonderful man. Does a good job!
I am having some difficulty thinking positive today…even though I KNOW that I have a ton to feel blessed about. It is just a day that I would rather have stayed in bed….
A tiffany Epiphany
May 5th, 2008This girl is not gonna get any taller. I am probably average height…maybe a little on the short side, but all of the pants that I buy are WAY TOO LONG. Yes, so it might have a little to do with the fact that I am not as petite as my height would warrant, but still, one would think that the all powerful pants manufacturers of the world would understand that a girl can have some hips and have short legs too…Sigh. So today I realized that I need to get my pants hemmed if I plan on continuing to wear them. Luckily, I now have a new mamaw-in-law who does excellent hemming work. Much like my granny would if she were still alive. I need probably 4 inches taken off of all of my pants. STAT! Now, will I have the courage to ask my new Mamaw Mary if she will hem my pants? Will a lunch at Cracker Barrel be enough incentive? Stay tuned…
And FOOD makes me think…
May 5th, 2008
So, food plays a big part in my life. Um, I would LITERALLY DIE if I didn’t have it. You will see a lot of posts that talk about food. But really I am not a glutton like I may have been BEFORE. Blah blah blah
So, here I am craving my choco’s and ALSO craving SUSHI! Which is one of my favorite ways to spoil myself and also feel like I am not eating something completely terrible for me. Anyway, I was thinking about sushi and then I thought I would share! I ate an octopus the other night. It was little, but I did eat the whole thing. It was sauteed. It was also very rubbery. I wouldn’t do it again, but I HAD to do it at least once. I ate an Octopus!
Hello, World!
May 5th, 2008This is MY periodic vomit. I hope that “periodic” doesn’t imply a set schedule, because this will most likely be completely random. The “vomit” IS meant to imply junk that comes out of me.
Today I am fretting about inspection costs, because I have this horrible fear that I will spend the rest of my life paying for inspections on homes that I don’t want to buy after the inspection. Does that indicate a possible laxness in the pre-inspection process, or is it just that there are really no houses that are more than superficially good? Is it just that I am in the “poor” person area of the market where the people who own the houses can’t afford to fix them up any more than superficially? Frustration. That is all.
I am also craving sweets like a madwoman. Really. MAD! Chocolate on chocolate cake sounds absolutely lifesaving right about now. Or a malt…or better yet, a malted chocolate milkshake with an chocolate frosted chocolate cake. Sigh.
I should be working now.
