Saturday Slouch

Well, once again another week has passed by.  It felt rather odd today (Saturday) to say it was a holiday.  Still there was plenty of booming fireworks in the neighborhood to remind you in case you forgot. 

I tried to sleep in but #1 son wouldn't have it.  He kept getting me up every hour from 5 until 9 when I finally got out of bed.  Of course I missed our stray friend, presuming of course he was waiting on me.

I fed the kids and decided that I should do the dishes.  Good thinking on my part.  I got things going and then returned to my room to watch TV with a couple of the kids.  Of course, there really wasn't anything on and I suppose that will be the case until Monday.  I have already combed through On Demand and gotten everything I wanted to see from Showtime and Here!.

My partner awoke and informed me that we should be eating dinner around 2pm.  He insisted on cooking but I would have rather went out.  He made is famous potato salad but it just isn't quite right this time.  Neither one of us like it but since he made enough for a small Army we are stuck with it.  Along with this we had BBQ Pork, which was really good.  He did a good job.

The part I hate is the clean up but thankfully he didn't make too big of a mess.  I did another load of dishes in the afternoon.  I also managed to give the house a deep cleaning, which it so needed.  I saw a cleaning show on BBC America this morning and that just got my queen clean jean in gear.  I didn't get as much as I wanted done but the bulk of it is done and the place looks so much better.

Of course the weather today was rain and with that comes depression and sleep.  I did the sleeping and my partner did the depression.  He's miffed because of the weather and the fact that he can't seem to get caught up on his projects.  The deck project is still on going and I am starting to wonder if we will be finished by August.  He tells me that by the end of the month it should be done.  Golly, I really don't want to wait that long but it's not like I have a choice.

The other day I was in my local pharmacy picking up some OTC medicine and noticed the cover of people.  Summer's Hottest Bachelor plus 45 Sexy Guys We Love!  I see a picture of this semi-cute guy named Chace Crawford.  Never heard of him but he isn't bad looking.  I grabbed it not realizing that they charged $4.49 for it.  Holy cow I don't care if it is a Special Double Issue it's not worth that much to me.  Still I've got it and the only thing that looks good is a shirtless picture of Zac Efron, so maybe I did get my money's worth.  :)

Right now I'm bored.  It's like I've done everything I can or should I say want to do.  I don't feel any gumption to keep on moving.  I've got some bird claws (fingernails) to trim.  They are long and they get on my nerves but do you think I want to take time to trim them?  No not really.  I really like long nails they are good for scratching the kids backs, my back, my partners back and also good for picking at things. Like a pesky phone plug or a bracelet that just won't come undone.  When I go to trim my nails it's like shivers all through my body.  Don't understand?  Think of nails on a chalk board, then you will get it.  Anyway, I press on and clip away.  I hate the sound of the clipper too but it is what it is.  I never cut my nails as short as most guys do.  I leave a little bit and therefore it's like an every two week thing to trim them.  My toenails ah, I have no problem with them chop 'em off.  They grow back in a month, repeat.  I don't know why my fingernails bother me but they do.

Speaking of which I trapped our scared cat and trimmed her nails yesterday.  She usually pee's on me.  Now she has upgraded.  I've been Shit on.  Yeah, she made a mess on the floor.  I went to clean it up and some how stepped in a pile I didn't see.  It was so bad I didn't even bother to try to clean my socks, I just tossed them.  Man, that was a mess.  It usually takes her a day or two to readjust and become friends with me.  Not this time, she's all bubbles of joy then again I am sitting at the table eating when she kisses up to me.  Otherwise, she really doesn't want to be touched.  Strange cat but I love her.  I still hope and pray for the day when she will sit on my lap and let me pet her.  We could be the best of friends but she has to allow that.  Until then I just talk nice to her and treat her as I do the others. 

I must admit I feel funny not putting up photos here.  It's like I'm struggling for content. I've though about pulling the plug and going back to my normal posting but I'm still giving it a fighting chance. 

My next load of laundry is calling me so I'm going to answer that.  I hope that you all have a great week.  I'm going to try to do the same and we will meet up here again soon.

Take care & God Bless.

Happy Independence Day

We have a lot to be thankful for both little & big things.  There are so many men and women who have fought so that we can be free.  To them I say thank you.

I also think this is the perfect time of year to pay tribute to those who perished on 09-11-2001.  We will NEVER forget!

09-11-2001 we will NEVER forget!

I hope you all have a great holiday.  Be safe, stay cool and have fun.  Don't eat too much food either!  :)

Not Feelin' It

What exactly am I talking about?  That's a good question.  I am just a little depressed.  I hate the fact that I have to go to work tomorrow.  We've got a BIG meeting in the morning, nothing I haven't been through before.  It's a dog & pony show with a little humor to it.  The bad part is that I get to setup for the entire thing by myself.  I am so not looking forward to that.  It's going to be a stretch to get out of bed in the morning, but I'll do it.  Things will be better after tomorrow is over with.  Then I can start my 3 day weekend - whoopee!

I had some additional trouble with AT&T over the weekend.  It wasn't exactly a pleasant experience for me or for them.  However, we got through it.  I was closer than I have ever been in my entire life to canceling my service.  Part of me still wants to but I've got my new toy.

Speaking of my new toy, my accessories arrived today from Crackberry.  Nothing spectacular but it was something that I looked forward to all week.  I always like getting packages or nice things in the mail.

The vet phoned last night and we have roids for #1 son now.  His chin is finally trying to dry up.  I worked on most of the kids over the weekend.  I went on a pimple popping frenzy and it felt so good.  I'd like one more big fat juicy one to pop, then I'm over it.  However, as I said they are drying up so hopefully this little nuisance will be gone before you can say Stridex!

I got my first pay check after the BIG raise.  Me thinks it was a prorated check because I only got $35 extra, that's certainly no car payment. 

I can't believe how quickly time has gone by since I left work.  It's almost time to call it a night.  Here's hoping that tomorrow goes just as fast as tonight went.

I am physically & mentally spent.  Rest is probably what I need.  First I'm going to dive head first into Hagen Daz Ice Cream.  Oh yeah, now were talking serious fun!

That's all for now.  Thanks for stopping by.

Cleaned Up

Hi there! I just finished cleaning up my blog. Gone are the Frackin' Adult Sites, never fear if your interested in those they will be on my other blog. I also cleaned up a couple of links to sites that decided not to link to me. If you would like you site added to this blog, leave me a note in the comments section. I'm happy to link to you provided you will link to me.

Oh if you used the search this blog feature, I put it at the bottom of the page. That's all for now. Hope your Monday wasn't too bad!

Saturday

So I made it to the AT&T Store before they opened.  I was the 3rd person in the door.  I found out the hunk I liked took off on vacation for this weekend.  FUCK ME.  I did get my new BlackBerry.  I've swapped out the settings using BlackBerry's software. Unlike when I did this at work, I didn't loose a thing.

It's going to take some getting used to the new layout of icons and the way they placed the buttons.  However, I like it.  Bad news is that the sleeper magnet that is in two of my after market cases doesn't work with this new device.  My charging POD doesn't work either.  The gel case I have don't work either - they moved the camera lens.  Of course they switch to Micro USB which means the car adapter didn't work either.

Good news.  I got a new car adapter.  I went shopping at Crackberry and got a new pod, new case and new gel case. I also got an adapter from USB to Micro USB, so I won't have to replace the adapter in my partners vehicle.  It will all be here by Wednesday because I paid a little extra for shipping.  I also get a $100 rebate but have to wait 6 to 8 weeks for that to come.  Then they don't send a check.  They send a Visa Card.  Me thinks I'm going to take that to the bank and ask if they can drain it and deposit the cash in my account.  It's easier for me, otherwise I will just save it and spend it on stuff for the kids.

Bad news, I discovered that I was over charged.  I'm supposed to get 20% off on accessories as well as the phone.  I was charged full price, but didn't realize until late tonight.  I'm going back tomorrow morning, they open @ 11.  I'm taking one of the car adapters I purchased back.  Then I want my discount.  I hope this doesn't turn into something ugly.  I really don't want to fight but it seems that I have to for each and everything I get in this world.  Especially when it's related to phones, be it home or cell phone.  As soon as I want to make a change the phone company always fucks it up.

No deck work today, it was too hot out.  Our buddy stopped by but he was covered in sweat.  It looked like he wet his pants and never dried out from the shower.  He also has a sunburn.  He will be over tomorrow morning early.  FUCK.  No sleeping in for me.  Besides that I have things to do anyway but relaxing is always on the top of my list for the weekend.

I'm interested to know if he will be coming by next weekend since it's Independence Day here in the US.  I will be off on Friday as will most folks here.  Our post office is open but most of the windows (retail/counter areas) will close early.  I so look forward to a day off from work.

#1 son's chin is starting to break out again.  It was just clearing up.  Good thing I put a call into the vet on Friday.  She should be calling tomorrow with instructions or so I hope.  I am thinking that she will put him on steroid pills.  He hates pills in fact I made him cough tonight over taking a pill.  However, it's for his own good.  He hates it but knows that I love him, which is why I put all of my time & effort in to it.  He still cusses at me inside and no one will ever convince me otherwise!

I noticed that LOGO disappeared from our Cable Line up.  So I called last night.  Turns out it's part of Showtime.  Okay so that normally is $14 but there is a 1 year special for $5.  I said put it back on.  I had to call back because the person didn't enter the order right.  Thankfully on the second call the guy was on his game and I was watching LOGO within minutes.  What's LOGO it's very tame Gay TV. Nothing like Here! but they both do have some great shows.

I noticed Penn & Teller's new season of Bullshit started last night.  I watched last night, those guys are always a hoot.  It was on Orgasms.  If you have Showtime, watch it I think it will be appealing to you.  Gay or Straight! 

Right now it's a little after one in the morning.  I am itching and thinking I should get my big ass in bed.  The alarm clock will be sounding off in no time, just like on a Monday morning.  Argh!

That's about it for now.  I hope you have a great week, that it is not too hot in your neck of the woods, that you all manage to stay cool and have some fun.  Go tell someone that you care about, that you love them.  Get a hug or give a hug.  You only go around once in this world, might as well make the most of it.

Thank you so much for checking in.  God Bless.
