'Tis The Season
am very work-stressed right now. They just dumped something like 60 cases on me...90% of which are Spanish-speaking, and the most Spanish I speak is besame culo....kiss my ass. Yeah. 'Tis the season to be stressed!
So I apologize, in advance, if I come across as rude or asshole-ish to anyone.
This advance apology is good until after I am done with these cases , which may be a while .... hehe
Oh...one thing that made me laugh today is hearing that Britney Spears's lil sister, who is 16, is pregnant.
That's what happens when you have this whack-job
for a sister.
Thanks Spears family, for making me feel better about myself.

Home for the holidaze
I am all done with Christmas shopping. I even went to the post office on Friday to mail Christmas packages to my far away friends. Ugh. The line wasn't too long at the post office, but this one lady was just asking question after question. I was holding packages in my hands and just praying for her to leave before I dropped the presents. Luckily, I was able to hold on to em. Tomorrow, I am mailing out all my Christmas cards. After that is done, I will be all done with Christmas stuff :)
I thought the post office took a long time, but Kinko's was even worse. I went to make color copies and (of course) only 1 color copier was working. Grrrr. So, about 25 minutes later, I left with my 10 copies. Sheesh.
Anyway, not much else has been happening. It is cold. I hate going outside in the morning to go to work. I hate that it is Sunday. I am just so full of hate lately! lol. I got soooo sick on Monday. I ate some eggs from the cafeteria that tasted funny and about an hour later, my tummy was hurting and I got so sick and I went home early. I am not eating cafeteria eggs anymore!!!!!
I have a mess in my apartment. Between the Christmas craft-fest and present wrapping, it looks like Michael's exploded in here. Now, I have to try to find space to put everything away. I think that might take a while
Here are some pics of my messy room...
Punkin and Cuddles are now officially cage-mates. I put them together on Friday in a "neutral" zone to see how they would react to each other. Of course, there was some rumblings and pouting, but there was no fighting, so that was a good sign. There is still some rumbling in their house, but that is just the 2 of them trying to be each other's boss. It really is quite funny to see the 2 of them playing follow the leader. They are so entertaining - lol.
Here is a more recent pic of Cuddles...
She is just so cute!!!
I am so gosh-darned tired tonite. I realy don't wanna work tomorrow.

Stupid Things I Did Today
Just to show everyone how much of a dork I really am, today after I had shut down my computer and was getting ready to leave work, I went to turn off the light above my computer and turned on the computer instead.
And this morning as I was leaving for work, I "found" my sunglasses on the 3rd peg on my key/mail holder, exactly where they had been hanging since Saturday. I went to work on Monday thinking I had lost them, because they are usually hanging on the 1st peg along with my keys. Had I looked a little to the right, I would have seen them. I really need to start seeing the big picture.
Not only am I a dork, I am a blind dork!

Long time, no blog
Ok, so I know it's been a while since I have blogged, but for a while my internet connection sucked! The Bright House guy came out and replaced my modem, so I am back in business
I had a super busy weekend. I went Christmas shopping on Friday...pretty much all day. Went to Target, Borders, the Gold Crown store, PetCo, Barnes and Nobles...everywhere! But I got pretty much all of it done that day. Then I came home and did some online shopping. Then all evening I spent hot gluing ornaments together. Big fun - hehe. By the time I was done, it was near midnight and I was tired! But I stayed up and watched some tv, and by the time I went to bed, it was almost 3 am.
Saturday, oh my lord! I went to Michaels because I had forgotten to buy more glue sticks (DUH!). Big mistake. It was hella busy, and just dealing with the parking lot was enough to raise my blood pressure sky high. By the time I found a place to park, I was fuming mad! lol. People just don't know how to friggin' drive! But I got what I went there for and went to a few more places and then went home.
Then, the guinea pig cage saga began. About 2 weeks ago, I had ordered this plastic bottom to make a cage out of for my lil Punkin, since she needed a bigger house. Well, apparently the seller got the address wrong, because when I called UPS to check on the package status, it said it had been delivered...to someone named Scott. Well, it turns out the seller put the wrong apartment number on the box. The UPS lady told me what apt it went to, so I went to that apartment to see if the dude was home.
Now, there is this dude in my apartment complex, who, like the building, is, well , complex. He can be seen around the building walking and talking to himself. Well, it is more like cussing to himself. I have heard him on several occasions telling himself that he is gonna "kill em all." (who "em all" is, I am not sure. I just hope I am not one of them - hehe). Well I often refer to him as my "scary neighbor." When I was walking to the door of the dude who got my package's apartment, I was just praying it wasn't the scary neighbor. It was. Yikes. But he gave the package to me after I told him who I was and what had happened. Turns out scary neighbor wasn't so scary after all.
Well putting the damned cage together wasn't so hard. It was just labor intensive - lol. I had to move all the furniture and stuff on the right side of the living room to the left side and vice versa. It took a while - lol. The I had to put the cage together, which was a source of pain for me, since I pinched my damned fingers between the wire panels on several occasions. But, all in all, it wasn't so bad, and Punkin is much happier now in her deluxe condo This is how it looks...
It has a loft and a ramp (which I made - hehe) and everything. Pretty nice digs, huh?
Well, after I built the cage and stuff, Alicia, Alana and I went out to Don Perico's and had some dinner. I was starvin' by that time, and my head was pounding. But the food was yummy. I even had some left over for lunch the next day.
Well, sometime during the night, Peanut, one of my hamsters, managed to become an escape artist and got out of his cage. I noticed he was missing on Sunday morning, and I, once again, had to move furniture around in an effort to find the little critter. After ruling out my bedroom, the bathroom and most all of the furniture in the living room, I figured he was either 1) under the fridge, or 2) under my entertainment center...neifher of which I even attempted to move (that would have resulted in another strained back muscle....which I had already managed to do earlier in the week... or perhaps broken bones - lol).
I set out some food in the middle of the living room with a trail of it leading up the cage door, hoping he would follow it into the cage. Well, around 10:30 pm, I walked out to the living room to get some paper and low and behold, there was little Peanut, munching away on some carrots I had left out for him. I put him back in his cage and made sure it was escape proof this time. I don't want to move any more damned furniture!!!!!!!!
Today after work, I went by Petco to get a little bed for the mini monsters, Flip and Truffle (the dwarf hamsters), and I saw the cutest guinea pig. I have been meaning to get a friend for Punkin, since they are social critters and like the company of another piggy, so I bought her and took her home. Her name is Cuddles, and here she is....
She is super sweet and also super shy. But she will be a good playmate for Punkin, who I am sure is lonely. I have to keep her isolated for a few weeks, just to make sure she doesn't get sick or anything. So right now, she is occupying Punkin's old house.
Oh, this is Flip, one of the dwarf hamsters...
(Truffle looks just like him - lol)
And here is Pretzel...
I got him after Lil Oreo died. He is a cutie and is just as sweet as Peanut.
Well, that is all I have to report for now - lol.

My new little buddy
Well, after Lil Oreo died, I had to get another little buddy. I was originally gonna get another hamster, but after a trip to PetCo, I saw the cutest little Guinea Pig ever. She HAD to come home with me. Just take a look at her cute lil face...
Her name is Punkin. The name suits her well. She had the cutest little mohawk "hairdo" when I bought her, and she looked like a punk rocker - lol. She is so shy right now, but I am sure she will warm up to me soon. It took a while for dear old Lil Oreo and Peanut to get over their shyness, and now, Peanut is so friendly and sweet. So was Lil Oreo. But she sure had a feisty side to her - lol.
Well, aside from the pet stuff, not much else is happening. This time change is sure crazy though. It feels so much later than 7:20. And I can't believe it is already November! It is almost Christmas. Damn! I have my supervisor test on Wednesday. We'll see how that goes - lol.

It was a sad day...
My little buddy, Lil Oreo passed on to the great exercise wheel in the sky yesterday. She was nearly 3 years old, which is very old for a hamster. (the average life span of a hamster is 2 years). She led a long, happy hamster life. Rest in peace, little buddy. Rest in peace.

I seriously have the worst luck!
Today sucked. It just sucked! First of all, it is Monday, and that is bad enough. It is freakin' cold at work, so I was wearing my jacket all day long. Then, the new meds the doctor put me on made me soooo sleepy that I skipped lunch to take a nap at my desk. And now I have cotton mouth on top of it. Damned medicine!
Well, after work, I went outside to my car and it is just nasty looking...and windy as all hell. Driving home was pretty awful with all the leaves and dust kicking up in my windshield. Got to my folks' house ok. But about a half an hour later, my bro walks in and says "What happened to your license plate?" I was like, "huh?" He said it was missing. GRRRR! Some ass munch stole my frickin' license plate...the whole damned thing....holder and all. So I had to call the police and make a report. They said they would contact me within the next 48 hours and then I can go to the DMV and get replacement plates. Of course, I have to PAY for those, plus a new registration card (cuz now I will have new plates) and registration stickers. I am so mad I could spit! I know it happened at work, because the plate was on my car this morning when I left for work. I swear, there are assholes everywhere!
Well, we had quite a thunder-and-lightning show tonite. It was freakin' awesome! My mom, of course, hated it. I don't think the people who are without electricity right now thought it was so awesome though. But I thought it rocked! Plus, we need rain! With all the wildfires down south, some more rain would be more than welcome. I guess my cousin is working down there helping to put out the fires. My aunt said he told her that he had never seen flames that high before. Crazy, I tell you.
Well, I am still pissed about my license plate. I had just recently memorized the damned thing, and now I am gonna have to memorize another one. I just hope I don't get pulled over for not having one.
But knowing my luck (or lack thereof), I will.

Long time, no blog
I know I haven't blogged in a long time, but there hasn't been much to blog about really. It's been the same old same old for quite some time. And I am afraid the same old same old is just here to stay. Not much happens in Bakersfield. And not much happens to me - lol. But I guess that is a good thing.
I am going to the dermatologist tomorrow to have a mole removed...the one on my forehead that I have had for years and years. No, it's not for cosmetic reasons, and no, it's not cancer. It is just annoying! I always hit it with my comb or brush, which just makes it bleed and hurt, and I have burned it a few times with the curling iron. It has just got to go! And by tomorrow afternoon, it will be gone, gone, gone. Yeah, it will probably hurt, but I don't care. Good riddance, mole.
Fall has finally arrved. No more 100 degree days. It has actually turned quite cold. I am having to actually sleep under the covers - lol. I just hope we get some rain this year. It has been so darned dry. I went to Yosemite a few weeks ago with my folks, and the waterfalls were not falling. They were all dried up. And today I heard on the news that a wildfire is buring in Malibu. All the dry grass and the Santa Ana winds have made it hard to contain. I heard it is even threatening Pepperdine University.
Well, that is all the news I have had to report. Sooooo very interesting, huh.

Fun with Photoshop - hehe
I heard OJ is already working on his next book ...
Ain't Photoshop just the best thing ever? ;)

Does anyone else find this just a TAD odd??
As many people know, I have had an ear infection. Well, now my freakin' left ear is plugged up and I feel like I am constantly in a tunnel. I hate having plugged up ears. So much so that I went to the store today and bought some ear drops. When I got home and read the label, I was slightly disturbed by one of the ingredients....
Did you see that??? FLAVOR?! What the frig is FLAVOR doing as an ingredient on an ear wax removal product? Are the makers of this product concerned with how people think it tastes? Who the hell eats ear wax removal drops? Ummm....nevermind. I don't want to know.
Is it just me or is this weird???
