The stuff at the bottom of the drain

So i am finally done with the dentist for 6 months! Boy was that an expensive dentist bender i went on! Cap this, crown that, and coat the whole thing with fluoride. Here is the password to my bank account... let me know when your house is paid off.

We had a flat track game last weekend as the sweethearts finally! HOT PINK & BLACK!! We lost. But who cares i had fun. I still think lots of people need to just skate. stop the pissing and moaning and skate you'll have such a better time!

This thing i'm about to rant about i may have ranted about before... so forgive:
My friends (and husband) NOT good at making choices and or plans. SO i end up being the one who wrangles everyone and narrows the field down or even PICKS the things to be done. Which leads to people making me feel like i'm bossy or like to be in control... BUT really i just like to have plans. I don't like to walk around for HOURS trying to figure out where to eat... i don't like to say hey lets do something Saturday and then never follow through with plans or a place to meet. So i end up being the bitchy ring leader.

Seriously if i left it up to people when we went to New York City... we would have walked around for HOURS with no food aimlessly wondering around. I worked my butt off looking up places to eat... directions from the train station... train schedules... travel time overall. Just to get dipshit answers from everyone about "do we really need to leave at such and such a time?" Well... i don't know have YOU LOOKED UP ANYTHING? what's that... NO? you were going to wait until we were needing to be in NY with only an hour to get there? I keep saying every time i'm not going to plan it next time BUT THEN the llth hour comes and no one has done SHIT to figure out plans and I end up doing it which ends up = me being the bitchy bossy friend everyone fears. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Ok end rant now b/c you know what? it's Friday so i want to leave on a happy yummy fluffy cloud pillow time note and not a bitchy note... SO have a great weekend and Happy Easter (filled with candy)!! thank you for listening.

Death circle of doom and such

So GPS +NJ = Death circle of doom. The GPS feels the need to direct you to go out of your way and face trials and tribulations you could otherwise avoid. Is this punishment because I stink with directions and most likely would take an hour to find my way out of a paper bag? One will never know for certain. BUT what I do know is that NJ has this ongoing fight with left hand turns that is not only time consuming but a pain in the butt!

I had to drive to (yes) NJ for a class this week. And the 1st day I had no idea where I was going or how to really get there… so I trusted the GPS (I know mistake #1). Enter death circle of doom. NJ WHY? Why? WHY? WHY do you hate left turns…. Or why do you create a “circle” that at least 6 if not 8 different lines of traffic feed into and have to try to navigate? Has this really cut down on accidents? Because I was about one second away from causing a giant pile up. Yeah part of it was me being unaware… I was looking for the 202 sign… looking looking looking… and the GPS was yelling at me “Take the 3rd exit in the death circle of doom… take the 3rd exit!” Well thank GOD I looked up in enough time to notice the stop sign I had before I neatly merged into a 3 lane line of oncoming traffic… my car and guts would have looked so nice in the death circle of doom had I not stopped in just enough time to avoid getting slammed but I didn’t avoid almost emptying my insides. OY.

So I successfully navigate the death circle of doom and get to class. The end of the day comes and I’m really NOT looking forward to the death circle of doom round 2 (or 3 & 4 to follow tomorrow). Well… GPS takes me a different better less annoying way home. I don’t have to deal with the death circle of doom. I cut at least 5-10 minutes off my time… HEY GPS why couldn’t I take this way TO class? Oh yes because YOU SUCK AT LIFE!! I take note of the BETTER FASTER way to go and use that for day 2 so don’t have to deal with death circle of doom!

Now on to the such:

Northlandz ( http://www.northlandz.com/ ) I’m obsessed. I think someone should get married there. I have no one in mind I just think SOME one should. I feel like having a giant model train in the background of your photos would be bad ass. I feel like maybe even being near the creepy doll houses would be bad ass. Now I can’t say for certain the doll houses are creepy but the photos on the website + the looks of the place from the outside = my thoughts that they are creepy. (Plus dolls are creepy with their “I’m following you” eyes… shudder.) I haven’t even been inside this place I just passed it in the past 2 days while driving and I’m obsessed. I almost want to go just to see the inside and feel its creepy factor. It’s not open on Tuesday’s which already wins me over b/c it’s a little known fact that Tuesday is actually the worst day of the week. They are only open 10:30-4 most days so both days I drove by it, it looked abandoned and totally creepy with NOT ONE CAR in the parking lot. BUT again I really feel like someone should get married there.

My next such is this…. OK I went to school with this girl who is now all soap boxing talking about women’s low body images and how terrible it is that women constantly feel the need to be skinner! Which by the way I get, I get that we are harder on ourselves then we should be and that some women take being thin to an extreme. Believe me I get that. And sometimes I know I’m being too hard on myself in regards to weight and body image. BUT this girl is skinny, always has been perfectly skinny, was popular, had a baby and seemed to not even be fazed for a second with “baby weight.” And she is up on her soap box preaching about ladies being too hard on themselves. I’m sorry miss never weighted more then 110 I bet… have a little more sympathy for ladies who struggle with weight not based solely on looks but in regards to their health as well. I know plenty of ladies that have struggled their whole lives or that are trying to lose the weight to be healthier… it isn’t always about image. Not only that but seriously who wants to listen to the skinny bitch talk about poor body image? Yeah I know skinny girls think their ugly too… but really? Annoying.

Finally… enjoy your Friday I know I will once this business of work is out of the way.
