IRTC: I have no idea when we will get an apartment....and i doubt it will rock....bahahahaaaa! PURSES! i should call out but i don't think i will. Tuesdays are tough days. Work work work.....blah!
So i had things to write about but for the second day they have escaped me! I can't write about Project Runway cause i don't know that sis saw it. I can't write about Sheer for the same reason. I can't write about the book i just finished....b/c I know sis did not read it yet! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I can comment on last weeks Project runway and how the guy was making fun of leather lady...."I have a leather cat, a leather couch...my children came out leather...." Then she hears him and he says sorry but not before adding "leather face." HAHAHA. LOVE it!
Is it me or are the people on project runway this time around making boring ass shit? I feel like they have just either been making boring crap or crap crap. With few exceptions but maybe it is like that in the beginning all the time and i just am not remembering it......And Heidi wears the stupidest crap. Nina is the only one that sometimes wears something remotely interesting otherwise it's crap all around (for the judges). And leather lady so needs to get rid of the striped pants (i question if they are pants even) and leather under ware she wears on the outside.....they make her look scary.
Look i found something to write about.
My name is Topaz and I like hearing my self type.

"I'm so money....so money....MONEY"
Shopping shopping shopping never stopping....need to stop it but can't!! I went outlet shopping this weekend with the hopes of finding a new purse....i found two i really loved but they were not on sale at all!! appalled much! i was! So i went on ebay today and i have found both of them! Yippy!! the one is much cheaper then it was in the store. The other one is half the price as well but i have not decided weather i will bid on it or not. I wish i was going to the flea market with my sis and mom tomorrow...i know i would at least find a cheap purse....may not be all i want it to be but it would be like 10$!
I did get a pair of DKNY jeans for 19.99$ they fit like a glove...i like that! I also got this totally awesome hoddie i just need to figure it out.....it is sort of pictured above....and i just figured it out...it's sort of depressing now.....the reason it's depressing is b/c i should have bought another one....with out the other one mine is not as much fun.....o'well. I also got my honey a sticker of a skeleton hand shaped like a grenade! awesome!! I might have to go and buy myself one!
I almost managed to finish my 420 page book over the weekend but almost isn't good enough! If i didn't have dirty laundry yesterday i so could have finished it all! dang it!
Tonight i will be getting my hair did! Yippy! i should go to a mac machine.....ok..bye now

Oh man
So the Crazy owner (he is nice) this is funny...he spills coffee on himself a lot and so i suppose he got a tide pen to help with the problem. OH man he just told the whole story OK here it goes....
He got a coffee with one of those closing lids, so he closes it to walk upstairs so he doesn't spill it on himself....he then proceeds to try and take a sip with the lid closed causing it to spill out the sides and down his shirt. So he reaches in his drawer grabs his tide pen and starts using it on his stain only to realize he is using his orange highlighter and not his tide pen!! (PS the tide pen got the coffee and highlighter out! Go Tide Pen!!)
But that could totally be me....i could see myself doing that so easily and i am not half his age yet! Like my mom always says she starts to feel like her age is really affecting her then she hears me do the same thing and she decides it can't be her age. Examples: Messing words up, getting things confused with other things, totally forgetting something that was just talked about like 5 minutes ago....the list could go on. She says "your too young for that!" i guess I'm just an old woman in disguise!
Lets talk about the library...Getting into the public library system is almost like getting into some elite club that only super rich super skinny people can get into if they have a left nipple bigger then their engagement diamond! I spent the better part of 2 hours yesterday trying to check out 3 books from the library!! OY!! I'm not really use to every township (no matter how small) having it's own library. I suppose that is why IVP library is awesome b/c they have so many townships going in on ONE library to make it AWESOME! Sis imagine that library being broken up into 3-5 different libraries!!
They say that any book the other libraries have can be sent to your library BUT i figure it will take them at least 3 business days for this to happen if not 6 so why don't i just Drive the extra 3 miles to the other library myself? Crazy stuff! I <3.....shhhhh don't tell the TV I'm cheating on it!
Ok enjoy happy early Friday day!!

It's a pot luck
IRTC: I got pink shoes to surprise you....but since i walked in the mud the surprise is ruined...but they are really cute shoes! I have no idea when i am going on vacation it keeps getting pushed back further and further! Stupid People are LAME! Ex's are no fun.....unless they are normal and you can talk to them....OK that never happens! I don't intend to pay half of the bill. (this was to two post worth of comments..)
So it's been raining for like ever it seems....and the thunder storms are crazy! I was driving through one last night! Needless to say i missed project runway and sheer! So don't tell me about it! I had a fun dinner last night despite my crap day! The ladies i went to dinner with are fun and crazy! The food was pretty good and i only got slightly lost on the way home.
It's funny b/c two of the people i went to dinner with still work at the place we all use to work at and right now they have 3 girls doing the job I did alone. And before you go there no they don't have so much more business! 3 people doing one persons job. Had the guy appreciated me and treated me good for a job well done he could be paying one person a reasonable amount of money rather then 3 people I love it!
I would also like to discuss people that say "live life to the fullest!" Then proceed to drink and do drugs.....um....thats not living life that is escaping it. Most people i know drink or do drugs to escape pain and bad feelings or situations.....so how is that living life to the fullest? If your living life to the fullest you are feeling every little ping you are awake and aware for every high and low that life throws at you....your not numbing yourself to it....your not hiding from it. It's no secret that i don't like drinking or using drugs period. I never see the point. I have fun without it....and look I'm living proof (and you sis) that you can indeed make it through life without a single touch of it! Guess what life is hard but it's life get over it already and find your own happiness!
Sorry i had to get that out. OK enjoy your Thursday....i am already having a better day! :o)

You are so F**king Lame
I am having a bad day already! It started at 3:15am when the worlds worst Thunder storm rolled into town and kept me up for the next 1 1/2 hours!! I couldn't go to the gym this morning b/c of crazy rain and lighting!! So sleep deprived i didn't get into work early so now i have to take 1/2 an hour for lunch. I didn't have time to shave so no cute dress for dinner tonight with old co-workers. AND i leave the house in my cute pink shoes only to remember that i had to park in the grass well really it's MUD. My pink shoes got COVERED in MUD b/c the MUD was like quick MUD (not sand MUD) and just sucked my shoes in!! Then i had to park in the other parking lot b/c i was the last one here!!!
But it didn't stop there. I had to go from understanding to BITCH in one hot minute with the representative this morning. I HATE HATE HATE when people can't just give you a fucking answer and instead you have to listen to them go on and on for 20 minutes!! I finally said OK I don't care what happened yesterday or last week....WHAT CAN I DO TODAY to get the product there THIS WEEK?? OMG!! The whole conversation could have been 5 minutes! But instead was like 20 minutes of CRAP!! Have i mentioned that I'm not loving trucking companies as of late? Wonderful!!
So lets talk about something i encountered last night....space invaders. Is there not some unwritten law about aerobics classes? Like 1st come 1st get space they want......OR how about i got here 10 minutes before you and your just going to come in and put your step 1 foot behind mine so when we do lunges i get to not do mine right b/c i have no SPACE? B/c you didn't feel like going up front where there was space? I GOT THERE BEFORE HAND SO i could avoid being an asshole like your being!!! I have giant feet and legs i need space!! UGH! I felt like kicking the ladies step every time i would move so she would realize what an asshole she was...but i knew she wouldn't get it!
So lets hope the day turns quickly for the better or i might just have to go kill a bunny at lunch. And i don't want to kill the bunny but if i don't kill the bunny i might have to kill someone else. At least killing the bunny would not put me in jail i might go on some lists of people to watch but i wont be in jail. (and we all know i would never kill a bunny or person....it's all talk...dang it!)

So It's funny right?
This weekend was a good / interesting one. Friday Katie and i went SHOPPING! I got 2 pairs of shoes, a dress, 2 shirts, a shirt for my honey, & pillow cases. I put into practice my no bags please policy. And not b/c I'm trying to be "Green" or because I think that by me not getting plastic bags i am going to single handily save the human race from years (like thousands of them) of using the earth however it pleases. (might i also add that though i would like to pretend we have the power to totally change the climate of a GIANT earth i don't really believe we have the power for that....sure i think we should waste less just on principle.) So every store i was at i said hey keep your bag....and the box these shoes come in please! Oh the reason i wanted them to keep their bags b/c i have a million of them at home staring at me all the time....there are only so many trash cans i can use them for!
So we had a very successful shopping trip b/c Katie found 2 dresses and a pair of flats that make her look Hott! I LOVE DRESSES right now! Then enter Saturday! I woke up not so early as to disturb my delicate self....OK b/c I'm lazy and b/c my Honey was sleeping in which never happens! So when i finally woke I had a party to get ready for! (even if it was hot hot hot outside.) I am the 1st person to show up (b/c I'm sort of a loser who has nothing better to do but go to parties on time). So i get there and since no one is showing up for at least another 3 hours b/c it is hotter then hot outside we go get more ice & Water Ice! Georgia peach water ice is awesome!
The party was fun and not drama free. and No i was not the drama! Ha! There was a moment of strangeness....maybe... See my ex was there and i knew he was most likely going to show up it was all a matter of when. So when he did arrive i was sitting with the girl he slept with right after he and i dated. well he slept with and totally never talked to again....ouch! She was super bitter and was not happy at all so it was no surprise she was planning her exit for soon after he arrived. So once she left i was having to fend for myself. No problem....even if i was left alone (well we were all outside but he and i were at the food table) with him for a few minutes. We had a polite conversation and it was over with.
And though i would like to be mean and bitter i just don't see the point. I'm happy so no offense why be bitter and resentful, I'm over it! I'm not going to be his bff4ever but I'm not going to be mean. His ex-wife did say he beat her and i can totally see that but i don't know anything for fact and believe me if i did he would have a junk punch waiting for him. But I have a good life so what do i need to be bitter about? But the strange thing about it all I come in today and my co-worker had an ex encounter on Saturday as well. So who else had one....things happen in threes people.....i know there is a third out there! out with it already!!
Then Sunday I went to the gym for about 2 hours it was awesome b/c there was hardly anyone there! After the gym we had Moe's! The Moe's by me has really gone down hill. I think it's under new Nazi like ownership. The girl waiting on us (well both the girls) dumber then a sac of bricks. I had to hold her little (chubby) hand through the whole thing! THEN the guy at the register doesn't ask if we are all together and just assumes we are and rings us all up together. I didn't really want to pay for Everyones lunch/dinner but i had no choice. We were then going to go to the movies but once we saw the lines out the doors we decided another time would be best.
Oh and my Honey got an A/C unit for our window. Lovely. The window let me tell you is NOT made for an A/C unit #1. #2 we can't open our window now. #3 My honey is a princess. #4 now i get to pay half of the eclectic bill to run the thing that i didn't ask for in the first place. Oh and to end the evening i come to find that the pictures i took when i surprised people with my news of moving back were all gone. He managed to get some of them back...but it was really sad.

No double use of Coupon!!
We went to Kohls last night (yes i re-bought most of what i bought last Friday after work b/c it was cheaper and i start the whole returning thing soon....i know will she ever stop!? the answer... no! B/c that just paid for me getting my gas cap changed.) ANYWAYS we went to Kohls and my mom had a 30% off coupon. While we were shopping my sister heard the one cashier Freaking out on a guy for "trying" to use his coupon twice in one day. Which your totally aloud to do but for some reason this cashier was not letting him. She even freaked out when he went into another line. She was just MEAN.
My mom and i were having a good time making fun of her and ourselves. My mom said "well...i knew we should never have came into the big city to shop at their Kohls we should have just stayed in Q-town." It was so funny! My sis and I were good we didn't spend too much (well me i really didn't spend anything i just saved myself money!) My aunt had to pretend like she didn't know us so coupon Nazi lady would leave us alone! All and all it was a good night! Oh and my mom made this cake and her icing was YUMMY! I am not an icing person nor a cake person but this icing was so good!! She is awesome!!
Taquitos are in my sisters hands hopefully she enjoys them as much as i did!! Hopefully they will be happy Taquitos and not Sad in the trash Taquitos:O( I get to leave at 1pm and you don't (or maybe you do...maybe you don't even have to go into work today...just let me brag would you?!)! and that my friends is THE END for today! :0)
Have a happy weekend! (wahoo weekend!)

IRTC and more
So here we go with the IRTC Post:
Littlebigsis-
Well in my defense my VCR isn't hooked up b/c there are two fans needed to keep our room at a reasonable temp in a house that the A/C is not used in.....i know lame defense but the one i have anyway.
You didn't comment within 5 days BUT since I like you and you are my one always commenter i will send you a prize.....good for you!!
i need to go to the store and buy yarn and do it I know but can you read/crochet/watch good movies/have fans on all at the same time? (i can't)
I know stripper drops and random people thinking that it's ok to grind on you is gross I enjoyed the club i went to with you and Charles....no one in my business!
Mom i'm afraid has always known the real story behind the hot chocolate wall.....i had a big mouth when i was younger.
I hear ya on the sometimes plans not working out so well....but Tea Time was very fun!!
More shopping FOREVER!!! I know i was sick of being frumpy all the time...so maybe everyone else is too?!
Katie - MORE SHOPPING SOOOOOOON!!!
So moving on last night i got TAQUITOS (spell check wants these to be PAQUITO'S...)!! I bought a total of 6 boxes of TAQUITOS (in all fairness only 3 boxes are for me)!! And i got Lemon Pepper Pasta!!! YUM YUM YUM!!! But while we were shopping at Giant we had a cart with gum on it!! I kept sticking my dang hand in the dang gum!! SO GROSS!!! and it wasn't until we were in line that i started doing this! I was just trying to hurry up and bag and i kept trying to move the cart to put bags in it and hand in gum....hand in gum....HAND IN GUM!!! WHO does that anyway? who puts their gum on a shopping cart? that is just nasty!!
I want to go now and shop so i will stop this post.....

You can all stop Now!
So i suppose everyone asking me everyday if I asked for my review yet finally got to me. I just asked my supervisor yesterday....."I was wondering about my um.....90 day review." And this morning I have a raise and some retro pay! The raise isn't phenomenal but it is good....plus retro pay....awesome!
And i was told how awesome i am. Thank you i know...i know.....bahahahaaa.
Well i didn't blog yesterday shame on me b/c i had neat things to blog about....such as:
Dresses
Dinner
Funny things people around me say
People who "find" you
Work (or not so work)
My car
So i will start with DRESSES!! I got 4 wonderful dresses ON SALE at Ross! They are pretty and they are neat and i was glad to have someone there to tell me what they looked like on me (littlebigsis)! My Honey does his best but he doesn't always share my love of shiny! (ok he never does.) And Katie is great but she never has time (or money) to shop these days which i understand. So it was nice to have someone to shop with! Then we went back after dinner and i almost bought the other 2 dresses that i didn't buy earlier.....but i was a good girl! (or a cheap girl i already bought two dresses at 15$ so i wasn't to eager to buy another one....)
Dinner was fun even if it was at Outbackwenevergoanywhereelse. My aunts are funny when they talk about the things they resort to when trying to get their kids to do things. But the things the kids do either in retaliation or just b/c that is what they do are kind of crazy! My mom as always is cute And my sis was fun (as mentioned above). And despite not loving outback i managed to get a good meal. Green beans, corn on the cob, and a baked potato! yum carb loading here i am!!
I am going to skip to Work (or not so work). My co-worker is supposed to do a part of my job and most weeks i ask when is the truck coming. They respond "i don't know." then i say "but you should know your the one calling the company! Right?"(panic in my voice) They say "oh shiii i forgot....." (frantic themselves). The "bit" is getting old! Just do it already i know it use to be my job but guess what half the crap i am doing use to be someone else's job but now i do it....i actually do it! I like this co-worker i just want this problem resolved already!! OY!
Now i will tell you about my car. You remember the check engine light came on.....well it was my gas cap. And no not it being loss b/c believe me we tightened and tightened that sucker! It just had a cracked seal! and had i looked at the dang gas cap itself i would have saved myself 35$ (that would have been at least 2 if not 3 dresses people!!). It's a sad thing to think about so i try not to think about it! because getting a new gas cap on my own would have been 10$ or so. NOT 46$ or so!! I wish i had a car garage where i could charge people 35$ for looking at their gas cap and then 8.80$ for the new gas cap!! Then taxes!!
So today i am going to China Buffet which i don't like normally...but i am in the mood for a mountain of sticky yummy rice and some veggies....perhaps some chicken as well!!
(i know it's only 10am but it feels more like 12pm so what if i'm already thinking about lunch...ok so what if i was thinking about lunch when i woke up this morning...your point!?!)
And i was told how awesome i am. Thank you i know...i know.....bahahahaaa.
Well i didn't blog yesterday shame on me b/c i had neat things to blog about....such as:
Dresses
Dinner
Funny things people around me say
People who "find" you
Work (or not so work)
My car
So i will start with DRESSES!! I got 4 wonderful dresses ON SALE at Ross! They are pretty and they are neat and i was glad to have someone there to tell me what they looked like on me (littlebigsis)! My Honey does his best but he doesn't always share my love of shiny! (ok he never does.) And Katie is great but she never has time (or money) to shop these days which i understand. So it was nice to have someone to shop with! Then we went back after dinner and i almost bought the other 2 dresses that i didn't buy earlier.....but i was a good girl! (or a cheap girl i already bought two dresses at 15$ so i wasn't to eager to buy another one....)

Weakend....Just kidding!
So this weekend things went pretty much according to plan with one exception... MY CAR!! So Friday i go to Kohls for their late night sale and I got a bunch of stuff (some of maybe i shouldn't have BUT it was all on sale). I spent more then i wanted to but i figured i needed most of it and what the heck i got nothing major coming up that i need all the money for.
Enter Saturday....I get us up and going on time for the beach and as we are on our way my check engine light comes on! So my day is slightly ruined b/c in the back of my mind i am thinking....how much will that cost?! is my car going to make it.....I HAVE lots of places to be on Sunday...should i drive my car? I can't borrow my honey's car DANG stick!!!
But we enjoyed the 1st few hours of the beach until people started multiplying like crazy! People, people everywhere not an inch to spare! This lady literally placed her chair on the edge of H's towel! (H = My Honey's sister). The nerve! She got back from the water and the ladies chair was there!! Good thing it wasn't me b/c i would have seriously freaked out on the person! Plus the day just plainly displayed how i never want children even more! (they cry and fling sand and run which in turn flings sand....and scream and cry some more!!)
So then we headed to OC for some lunch/dinner at IKE's!! Only to find the one on Aubry closed so we had to go to the one on the boardwalk. At this point we were hungry and crabby! But Ike's was yummy! I love butterfly fries!! We then do some shopping (despite the fact that i know i need money to get my car fixed i spent about 60$ that day). I bought 3 used books (cause i don't have enough to read), 1 gift for someone, and the other money was spent on parking (5$ for 10 hours) and beach passes.
We get home from our trip crabby and apparently sunburned!! The "continuous" spray did not work out so well for my Honey. Even with me helping him apply it on his back!! I put a lot on there i swear!!! the top part of my back was burned b/c i really didn't put enough block on and i didn't get help putting any on! So next time we use a cream!
Sunday i woke up early so i could go to Auto Zone and get my car checked out...still wasn't early enough b/c then i was late for meeting up with Katie. But we still got to the antique mall and had plenty of time there. We then went to our BF tea. Which was very lovely! It was finger sandwiches and yummy treats! We all had fun talking and doing what girls do! We then went back to Katie's and talked and talked some more.
Then i went to Julie's for dinner! YUMMY Dinner!! she made salad and perogies which doesn't seem like a lot but she had this Italian dressing she made that was awesome! It was so good! OMG i am in love with it!! I almost went for the ranch but i said what the heck I'll try the Italian and i am so glad i did!! Leslie was also there she is a fun girl that i am not quite friends with but I'm more then acquaintances with...does that make sense? We all chatted and joked and had lots of fun! Julie being the awesome host she is sent me home with a packet to make my own yummy salad dressing!!
There was my fun weekend other then the car which is currently in the shop awaiting it's impending doom! Grr!

My day of the week.
We all know what day it is.....FRIDAY!! wahoo! YEAH! I wont discuss my plans for the weekend b/c guess what they always change. So lets find something else to talk about.....
LittleBigSis sent me a letter from Canadia and I got it yesterday!! It was neat! Yippee! My bottom teeth are officially straight again. But sadly i still need to go to the Ortho for my top teeth. I should make that appointment like 2 months ago! But i don't know where to go...i guess i should just pick a place already!!
My LittleBigSis was saying in her letter how the hotel looked nothing like the Internet version and I know what she means exactly! The Internet is wonderful for the most part...but it really is deceiving! what people can do with photo shop and spare time is amazing. Or a really good camera angle. I have looked many a thing up on line only to be totally scratching my head when arriving at the actual live place wondering when were those pictures taken? When the place was 1st built 25 years ago? I suppose it goes along with our flaunt what you got fake what you don't.
My Moms last night was lots of fun! We had yummy tortillas! We made some jewelry. We watched this awful show with people and their dogs (and no that is not why the show was awful sis i like dogs). And then my Mom put on supernatural which was very supernasty! We talked and laughed and had fun as usual. My Mom get her A/C fixed and the guys who fixed it left her garage a mess. I am seriously contemplating sending them a letter about it b/c I can't stand people leaving behind a mess...OH and they used her hose without asking. Which wouldn't be such a problem if the hose was normal. You know outside the house somewhere and working properly. The hose is located in the garage. (not a great place for a normal hose...) And it leaks like crazy so a small trash can is placed under it to catch the excess water. They would not know this so them not asking resulted in water all over my moms garage and one or two of her boxes getting soaked through....great! So the question is should a letter be written? (and if i write a letter have i turned into one of those elder people who write letters of complaints for everything?)
Not that i expect compensation just that they should do a better job! In general customer service and satisfaction seems to be a lost art. People wonder why the economy is going down the drain....who wants to spend their money in places where mean nasty people work and don't help you?! I don't like them being up my butt the second i enter the store but i do like them to actually be around when you need help. And be nice....or at least pleasant! That is why people just turn to the deceiving Internet to shop b/c they don't want to deal with nasty people!
OK this post is long enough i wont go into a tirade about customer service. Have a good weekend!

Hot chocolate WALL?!
I'm going to my MOTHERS tonight!! I'll definitely be seeing the hot chocolate wall. The youthful days of fighting over pants with Hot Chocolate in hand. Poor mom gets a living memory of our youthful antics. But it has supplied us all with a wonderful line.....Hot CHOCOLATE WALL?!! I'm drinking hot chocolate right now that's why I was thinking about the wall.
Funny thing about the Hot chocolate i am drinking right now. At work we have hot chocolate mix and we have one of those restaurant coffee makers (the place use to be a restaurant). So we can have free coffee and hot chocolate everyday. So when someone came back here and told us "there's hot chocolate and coffee up front if you want any!" My office mate says after the person is out of ear shot and as i load my mouth with a giant scoop of yogurt.... "Big deal." I almost had yogurt coming out of my nose b/c she said what i was thinking. We were both like and we have hot chocolate and coffee back here everyday....do you want a cookie?
The story gets better....Another person tells us "there is hot chocolate, doughnuts, & bagels up front. Insert name here bought them b/c the store people are coming in so get some before they get here." OK me and my office mate are like....um he didn't tell us about the doughnuts & bagels. (well we didn't say that to the person just to each other.) So we go up front and the person who brought the stuff offers us hot chocolate or coffee.....so my office mate says as we are returning to our office "how come they didn't offer us doughnuts or bagels? i wanted half a bagel." Hahahahaha It's just funny b/c they are making such a big deal out of something we have everyday....Hot Chocolate and Coffee!
So here is another fun story. I'm at fashion bug last night in the fitting room. I'm sure the other two ladies in there did not see me enter. The conversations start as their two young daughters enter the fitting room.
1st lady: I think these pants make my butt look big.
1st daughter: Everything makes your butt look big....b/c you have a giant butt.
(me thinking oh no she didn't)
1st lady: Thanks....guess i know what i need to work on at the gym.
2nd lady: This shirt looks too young.
1st lady: I think I'm bloated. No more Chinese food for us. How does this look?
Both Daughters: Bad.
1st lady: Thanks.
2nd Daughter: Well i only said Bad b/c she did I didn't really mean it.
1st lady: It's OK i know when i don't look good in something.
2nd Daughter: Look it's a sling shot....it's a sling shot (proceeds to say this 10 more times in between laughing at her own joke.)
2nd lady: Very funny.
1st daughter: Yeah a sling shot that everyone has put up their butt....gross!
2nd daughter: It's a sling shot....
2nd lady: OK put it back....yes it's a thong.
2nd daughter: it's a sling shot.
2nd lady: (she says something that i will spare you the burden of knowing. she says a few things i will spare you from knowing and they were scary things.)
They go back in their fitting rooms as i am leaving mine. I'm pretty sure none of them knew i was there. So i see them come out of the fitting room and Now the 2nd daughter is wear high wedges and saying "look...Drop it.....Drop It." She is like 12 and she is dropping it like a stripper. She proceeds to try and teach the other girl what to do when the mother asks her not to teach her daughter such things! Oh and FYI the two ladies where not even that fat.
Aren't kids just so......um.........nasty!?

"You are so good so far....you are..."
So tonight i get to have Mac & cheese at my aunts house! yum yum!! Then tomorrow i go to my moms! Double Yum! My cousin will be telling me about his trip to Mississippi all night i am sure! So that should also be fun!
I still haven't written my e-mail for a review....hopefully i will do that tomorrow. I want to also get a list together of things that i do and things that i have improved since starting here. That way i have something to go over in my review. I should get an old review from somewhere and go through the things they look for and make a review of myself.....maybe....laziness must not prevail! (i know I'll shut up about the review already!)
SO moving on....gosh i should make this interesting....i could tell you how we worked on our hips last night in class. Or oh oh here how about lets have crazy owner dialogue time:
CO: Where is insert co-workers name today?
Me: Getting their passport.
CO: Oh well that's good that means they is legal. That's one less to worry about!
Nice.
Well i really need to start crocheting more! i know i bet i keep saying that! where has my inspiration gone? (to Canada? hahahaaa) Maybe i really need a dish rag a night....night.
i am so all over the place right now....maybe b/c i am all over the place at work. i go from one thing to the next back to the other....then on to another.....and it looks like we will be keeping the worlds worst shipping company b/c they save us lots of money. So more baby sitting the trucking company Ahoy! (look she's doing it again talking about the trucking company....which maybe on her list of evil words soon....)
What i will say about the worlds worst trucking company is at least the rep i deal with is nice. Which by all means she should be but that doesn't mean she will be. Ok look two posts in one day.....aren't you so hip hop happy?!

The goal...
To blog twice today to make up for no post yesterday so littlebigsis has lots to read.....she will be returning to Nj today (lets all be sad for her but not to sad b/c she still has 4 days without work).
Work is getting on my last nerve because i am not getting paid to do the things they want me to accomplish in one day. I know i know who is getting paid properly....the answer is most likely 10% of people get paid well. When i worked at the pet bakery i was getting paid Great for all my efforts. My boss/the owner knew how to treat her employees. When i worked as a server i was also getting paid great. I was almost getting the same amount per hour as i am right now. That my friends is sick! However with both the above jobs i didn't have vacation pay or health care.
So yeah i still need to ask for my review, things keep not working out for me to ask so i think i am just going to write an e-mail. that should be grand. Guess I'll be googling how to write a proper e-mail to ask for a review.
The whole thing makes me mad on different levels. Like you know i do great work and you are always talking about my skill yet you wont reward me for it and you wonder why the position i am in has been filled many times before. Or how you tell me when you hire me that in 90 days you will give me more money based on the job i do.....am i NOT doing a good job?! Then there is the fact that the other two girls have not gotten a raise and aren't asking for one....BUT I know how the work world works so screw that I'm asking for one! Finally I'm PO'd b/c I know what i should be making simply for my "title" not even including all the other crap i do!! So this leaves me with a bitter taste and i don't LIKE BITTER!!!!!
Another day another not extra $.
FYI this is my #100 post...i thought i would do something neat for my #100 post but alas i didn't even realize it was #100 until after i had posted it....well maybe i will send something neat to anyone who comments on my #100 post for the next lets say 5 days anyone that comments (something more then...hello) on this post gets a surprise....and if i don't have your address you will have to e-mail it to me. OK.....look something neat for my #100 post!

So the need is there!
I need to blog everyday this week so when my sis returns she has stuff to read! and entertain her! 4th of July was FUN!! There was lots of food and i bought a bag of quest Doritos. They are a bag of chips that you eat not knowing the flavor. They have a web site but on the site they don't tell you the flavor (according to my mom & aunt). So it was interesting getting people to eat them. To darn bad that my aunt could not wait for everyone to arrive before opening them and got my honey to join her in her quest to drive me crazy!!
We had a nice fire (FYI my aunt is obsessed with her fire). S'mores! Yum! She had this awesome color stick that makes the fire all different colors. (picture of fire in this blog) Oh yeah almost forgot about my cousin Neen. She apparently told her mom on the car ride up that she couldn't wear shorts and it's all her mothers fault for giving her "fat Weaver thighs." Oh no she didn't....did she not realize she was going to a picnic full of Weavers? So not only did she say a very awful thing to her mother but she also insulted me and my mother.....she wasn't too pleased that her mother was spreading her mean words. She also told her mom (during the week) that she didn't understand why her mother exercised because it wasn't helping!!
Yes just so you know i was a punk when i was younger and said things to my mom that I regret as well. But i never called her fat or in anyway implied that she was fat! Later my mom said "guess Neen is going to have a lot to be sorry for when she gets older." So very true!
Oh we saw Hancock on Saturday and I thought it was pretty good. A little cheesy at times but over all good. I saw something in the movie coming a mile away and no one else i was with did. Does that make me super smart, super over exposed to movies & TV, or does it make me super sad b/c nothing will ever surprise me again in the world of film? I finally got one of my co-workers to do something with me that didn't involve food (well popcorn does not count). She went to the movies with us!! She said the movie was good but "strange."
well i suppose that is all for today (look i didn't even talk about trucking companies)!!

Scantily Clad
Apparently having your knees showing = Scantily Clad.....Oy! They literally made the girl i work with go home and change into Jeans b/c she had capris on that were RIGHT above her knees! It's crazy talk! It's "dress down day." This place has no hand book telling you what you can and can't wear.....it's almost laughable b/c we see No one! We could be here in PJs and no one would know! We talk on the phone a lot but guess what they are not the video phones where you see people and they see you!! What a JOKE!!
Moving on...Looking forward to the three day weekend now that it is right around the corner! We are supposed to get out early today but we shall see if this happens. I wont hold my breath if you don't!
We had very YUMMY food last night!! (thanks sis!!) (oh i got your text message late cause i left my phone on silent again!) We also went to see Iron Man. My honey already saw it but he insisted that i see it on the big screen so i could get the "full effect." I thought it was way too long and it was ok. I pretty much don't like comic book hero movies anymore back in the day they did a pretty good job but now a days they stink for the most part.
I still have 6 1/2 hours left in this day (if we don't get out early!) I think i may go insane! This has been the slowest week ever!! I feel like it's Sunday! That is how slow it has been!!
IRTC: Those were cute sandals (the pink ones) & a 6 hour drive is not bad at all! That is half of what it takes to get to NC! Do let me know well.....everything from your trip! :o) have Lots of Fun!!

"Better then this, Better then that, Better watch out when you get me going!"
I was telling my sis just last night that i have a hard time seeing how anything gets in stores and to consumers when Trucking companies are the way they are! I work in a place that only supplies a limited amount of items and it seems like the Trucking Gods do everything in their power to make our trucks late, or the wrong temperature, or leave without the product.....the list goes on!! How does deodorant and tooth paste make it to it's destination when we can't even get seafood to where it needs to be?! Well it's just a thought!
Two more working days in this week!! (yeah sis i know you have two more days till vacation!)
I forgot to mention that i went to my sis's house and came home with some fun dresses to wear!! So next week may be a dress a day kind of week!! We also shopped for shoes....ok tried to shop for shoes but stripper shoes were all the internet would bring up! Oh and shoes that were 760$ and ugly! who really pays that much for shoes? Really in the real real real world? I don't believe i ever will! Unless i become super rich and an underprivileged child will be able to go to school because i bought a charity pair of shoes. (i was trying to come up with a circumstance where i would pay that much for a pair of shoes.)
Also i DID go to Taco Loco! YUM YUM TRIPLE YUM!! As always i had lots of fun with my sis! Hope she has a super great vacation even if i am green eyed!
Same Ship Different Day! AHOY!
