Whiney Wednesday

I really don't have any reason to whine, gas prices are dropping, I've lost about 90 pounds in less than 4 months, my ingrown toe nail is no longer hurting, but I'm gonna anyway, just 'cause I can.

* My new Bali bras are rubbing my perky, lacey, lifted and separated boobies. Now my boobies are sore and perky, lacy, lifted and separated. I guess this is normal, I've never, ever, ever worn a bra with an underwire in it so guess I just need to toughen up some.

* My kid is taking Pre-AP classes and some of her homework is already over my head. Well, that's not right. Her opinion and my opinion on answers differ. Her opinion and my opinion on the QUESTIONS differ. I guess there is more than one way to skin a cat.

*I know I have more to whine about but I'm outta time.

Too Much Tuesday

I know it's only Tuesday but I just really feel the need to bitch. I've just put up with too, too much shit today.

This morning while I was taking MWH to school, an idiot had his turn signal on but never turned. I tried to pass him and he changed lanes abruptly and swerved into the lane I was passing him in, opposite of which he was supposedly signalling for. Grrrrrrrr. Then, after I dropped her off, I was behind another fucker who got his license out of a Cracker Jack box. He was an OU fan and had the car to prove it too, it was all crimson red, had the OU stickers and an upside down OSU steer horn sticker to boot. The guy was probably only 20 but he was driving like he was 90. I had to pass his slow, sorry ass too. I really did wake up in a good mood today I just don't get it. Why is it that when I want to be in a good mood, sorry assed fuckers out there just piss me off?

So then at lunch I head to town for errands and this nut job walks out in front of me going down Main Street. We're no where near an intersection, no one is behind me or coming towards me, but this idiot walks out in front of me and stops in the middle of the street. I swear, he had to be some sort mentally challenged person. God bless his soul but I almost ran him over.

I was leaving one of my lunch stops and a man was walking in carrying a package, a really big, nicely wrapped, ribboned, embellished gift. I held the door for him and I said "nice package". He set the package down and immediately grabbed his crotch and said something to the effect that he was checking to see if he had his pants on! I nearly fell over laughing so hard! He did have his pants on and I was not commenting on his "other" package, just the wrapped gift he was holding in his hands.

I just can't wait to see what happens tomorrow. Every day is just one big laugh after another!! LOL

Murphy's Law

Why is it that on Fridays the weekend looks so good but on Sunday when you look back you think "Weekend, what weekend?"

When I got up Saturday morning I was not feeling well, not sure why, just not my normal Saturday mornin' goooooood but Bob wanted to go to Joplin and JC Penney's was having a bra fitting event and I hadn't been fondled in a while so I threw on my shoppin' shoes and I went to and got felt up by a complete stranger half my age and bought myself some new Bali bras. Now my boobies are lifted and separated and lacy and shaped up where they belong. I got one hell of a good deal, they were doing a buy 2 get 1 free special to begin with then Saturday morning they were doing Doorbuster sales where all Bali bras were 50% and, to make it even sweeeeeeeeeeeeter, they had in store coupons for $10 off $50 off so basically I got 6 bras for less than $49.50 plus tax. And, if that weren't good enough, the Bali bras had a special coupon with them that if you bought 2 you got 1 free through the mail so I have 3 more coming! WOO HOO!

After that we went home I still wasn't feeling any better so I took a nice, long, hot bubble bath and rested a bit, then we went to Handyman Kev's 39th Birthday Blowout and played volleyball and horseshoes and ate a great picnic meal and had sooooooooo much fun. I still wasn't feeling right but we went to the fair and tried to have a good time before the rain came. MWH took a friend and they bought the wrist bracelets, big waste of money considering the rain came and they didn't get to ride as much as they wanted, but oh well, she had fun, that's all that matters.

One of my co-workers was selling her dining room table this weekend so I bought it from her and took my old one to her garage sale and sold it so now, for a mere $10, I have a nice, new, beautiful farmhouse table that seats 4 and is just the perfect size for my wonderful little family. MWH and I played Sorry on it this weekend and we even shared a meal or two there already, lovely, lovely, lovely..........

Sunday I didn't hardly get out of bed before 2:00pm because I was still not feeling well but I did get up eventually, vacuumed out the Jeep and I think I even went to Wal-Mart and Marvin's for a few things, I don't remember much other than just blahhhhhhhhh. I threw up a little and that helped but not much. Sunday night we watched the season finale of Deadwood. So sad that's over with now too. What am I going to watch this fall on TV? I guess I'll break out my Buffy and Angel DVDs and watch them again. I sure do miss Buffy, she rocks.

It's Monday and all I can say is THANK GOD IT'S ALMOST OVER! Today has been insane! It started last night when the First Bitch (that's her self proclaimed title) called me to let me know one of the Wise Men had called her to tell her the ceiling had collapsed in the office and that water and ceiling and building gunk was all over. Great........ This building is oh, 400 years old, and it's got some nasty gunk in it. I know I have a mushroom growing in my left lung because of the water leak in the hall, now it's 15 feet closer and my right lung is trembling with fear. When I got to work though, it wasn't as bad as I had envisioned. Just some brown water on the floor and a sagging ceiling tile. It's amazing how you think things are so bad but in reality they sometimes aren't nearly as horrible as you think.

I'm going to spend the rest of my day thinking positive. POSITIVE dammit, POSITIVE!!!!!!!

Spiders, Elections and Dreams

There are few things on this earth that just scare the holy shit out of me and spiders are one of them. Spiders are usually smaller than my hand, I've never personally seen one larger, but there is no way I can touch one to kill it. I've tried. It's like some primal response for me to start then chicken out at the last second. I was loading the dishwasher yesterday and when I went to get the dish gel from the sink cabinet I saw a huge, ginormous, man eating spider. This fucker was huge. He had stripes down his back like a fucking chipmunk. I'm serious, he was some sort of inbred spider / chipmunk freak! His body had large compartments, large, hairy fucking segments. I pissed a little when I first saw him. Then I quickly grabbed the Windex and tried to smoosh him, which did not work as planned. He disappeared, I pissed more and had visions of this man-eater attacking me in my slumber, getting in my clean laundry, lurking in my dishes just waiting for me to approach...... He did NOT have a kind, comforting Steve Irwin voice, he had a scarey, dark, sinister Vincent Price / Orson Wells kinda voice. Damn, I've gotta pee again now just thinkin' about it. *shiver*

Ok, I run to the laundry room 'cause I know there is some Raid ant killer in there, and dive on the floor hoping it was on the baseboard and I could begin my slow, painful death of this insidious creature........ Eureka, he was hovering below the lip on the counter, I was right! I sprayed with all the might I had, peeing more and more with each second passing. He took off running across the kitchen, barely missing the yellow streak to my left. Finally, the sweet poison worked it's magic and the beast slowly and painfully fell mere millicentimeters to the ground...... I swear I heard a thud as he hit he was so big. I quickly put a crock pot lid over him incase he was just playin' possum and left the room to find some dry pants.

After I had donned fresh undies, I retuned to find that my prey had indeed succumbed to the Raid shower I had bestowed upon his hairy, mutant beast.

Ah, big sigh..... I did it, I killed a spider. A spider so big he could have possibly eaten me alive. I killed it single handedly and man-less. I was (and still am) so proud of myself.

So, you may ask, why was I hope in the middle of the day while I should have been at work? Ah, good question.... I was off because my bossmen rock. They know how to treat us goooooooood. I had a day to myself. A day like no other. A day of pure, unadulterated joy. Ok, well, maybe I had about 8 minutes of something pure and slightly joyful. hahaha I had the day off because of a local election. Don't ask me what we were voting for, I'm not political, I have no idea, I just know it's a day I get to have to myself and those days are PRICELESS.

My last blurb is about a phone call from my beloved sis. She called me first thing this morning asking me if I'm ok. Um, yeah. I think so. I did a quick wound check all over my body to see if maybe she knew more than I did, sometimes sisters are like that, even if they're 300+ miles away. I had no head wounds or open sores oozing red, icky blood so I told her I definitely was ok. She said that that was good news, that she'd had a dream about me and I wasn't so good. She'd dreamed that I'd had an affair with a guy named Chuck (yeah, that's a name I wanna scream during sex) and that Bob had found out about it and had run me down and made me go off the road in my car. Ok, normally I'd laugh this off but I have had a dream for about a week now that I'm lying in a field and I've just been through a wreck. It's dark, I can see a car's headlights and I can see the tires spinning because it's upside down. I can hear the music on the radio. I can hear voices but I can't turn to see where they are coming from. I can taste metal and blood in my mouth. I can feel sticky blood on my head, body and torso. It's so vivid that when I wake up I can still taste the blood in my mouth. Talk about freaky. I don't know why my sis dreamed that, nor do I know why I dreamed that, all I know is that I'm not screwing around, I only know 2 Chucks and one is in New Hampshire and while I do simply adore him, he's just not my type, not to mention he's like 1700 miles away and the other Chuck is too old for me. LOL (that's my nice way of saying, ewwwwwwwwww)

So now I'm going to brace myself for the drama of tomorrow. I can't hardly wait for what's gonna happen next.

I'm so ready for summer to be over.

I am so wiped out after this weekend, good grief. All we did was run! Friday my Jeep went into the shop to get the rear end looked at, we thought it was a minor thing with the drive shaft or differential or something, most of the Libertys we've driven all did it so we didn't think too much of it, but it turns out they are completely replacing the entire rear end. I guess you could say I'm getting an ass lift. Hmmmm, I like the sound of that. LOL It was supposed to be done by 5:00 Friday but that didn't happen so we were down to just the Hemi..... That can make for a long, long weekend.

Saturday morning we were up way before the butt crack of dawn setting up our garage sale. I have lost so much weight none of my old clothes fit. Plus I've had crap accumulating since our last garage sale so I just had to get rid of some clutter. We did ok, almost $200 profit and really didn't sell anything that we will miss. Just junk.... I had one lady come and buy $84 worth of my clothes! WOW! $84, that is a lot of clothes! This is the second or third time in the past year I've cleaned out my closet, the first time I've made any money off of it though. WOO HOO!
After the garage sale, we went to Joplin and I hit a few sale racks and got a couple shirts and then went to Kohl's where I hit the mother load. Ok, maybe not the "mother load" but I went in searching for some black pants and I found them, the perfect weight (for summer or fall), the right size and the perfect length, they were on sale for $10 from $44 but when I went to check out they were only $2.50! I nearly fell over, I wish they'd had more!!!!!!!!!!

After the shopping trip we hit Logan's Roadhouse for dinner, yum-o, they have the best rolls. I had a bucket of shrimp and could barely eat enough to justify buying it, Bob had to finish it. Hmmm, I guess that's one of the drawbacks to having gastric bypass surgery. LOL Well, one drawback..... Another drawback is the bitches you once thought were your friends talking about you behind your back. Grow up! Yeah, I had the surgery. Get over it! If you had half a brain you'd look at your insurance policy too and do it. I was (and still am) fat. Supposedly it's been said that "no matter how much weight I lose I'll still be a bitch", well, thanks, but I'll be a thinner bitch and you'll be a fat, backstabbing, lying, manipulative, self-centered, immature, hateful bitch. ha ha ha ha ha ha Why are women like that? GAWD! UGH!

Ok, off of my rant there....... After Logan's, we went back to The Swimmin' Hole for a night swim. That was sooooooooooo fun! We were way too tired to do it, but sometimes you just gotta. LOL Sunday we didn't do a whole lot of anything, just rested and piddled around the house.

Have you all noticed it's nearly September? Holy crap!!!!!!!! I'm telling you, this year has just flown by! Sometimes I feel like I do too much, I've cut down on a lot of the "extra" stuff I do but it still seems I'm spread thin. Things like blogging aren't nearly as fun lately, maybe it's a slump? There are things I want to blog about but don't want to because it might hurt someone, not that I care though really, I just don't want to air my (or their) dirty laundry.

I'm off Tuesday and it looks like I'll be filling my leisure time with all sorts of activities, no rest for the wicked, eh?

Oh.My.Gawd. of the day

One of my oldest, bestest friends from high school is in need of some sex. She hasn't had it for about 3 years and she's a little stressed. The woman is old fashioned and has some traditional thoughts on men and dating and such. She believes it's the man's place to ask the woman out. An old boyfriend from high school that she has remained friends with for the past 15 years has recently moved back to her town and is getting divorced. Everyone keeps asking her if he's asked her out yet, to which she replies (sadly) no. Then everyone asks her WHEN are you going to ask HIM? Basically she blushes and balks at that.

Right or wrong, it's her opinion and I agree that it's her decision to make. I personally think she should ask him out and jump his bones but she refuses to do so.

So, today, she im's me this: (names are protected for privacy)

HER: You can stop asking me for E's number. Seems my friends here got my cell phone some time ago and got E's number and then called him! I am so embarrassed! The one who called him just said that when he is ready to date she thinks that I would be interested. You talk about a PUSH to get back out there and date!!!!!!! The skinny of it is he is going through a divorce is unsure of what he wants and we are just really great friends. I can live with really great friends. So, to answer your question E and I will not be going out.....he just likes to flirt with me. The impression and consensus is that he sees me as someone to be more serious with not someone to just go out and have fun with. I seriously underestimate all of my friends.

HER: They are bound and determine to get me dating if it is the last thing they do!

ME: oh my gawd, that crosses the line!!!!!!! I'd never steal your cell and get the #!!!!!!!!!!!

HER: Yep, I told them my cell will never be left unattended again!

HER: of course, there is no one else in there they could possibly call!

ME: lol that's funny

ME: I am so blogging about this conversation!!

Happy Birthday!!!

Today is my sister's birthday! WOO HOO! I'm not telling how old she is because she'll come down from St. Louis and kick my ass. LOL Ok, she probably wouldn't considering that she's 8 months pregnant and ready to pop and she's not supposed to leave home because her kidneys are failing and she's having contractions. Her son started school this week and she may actually get a little rest now!

So, Sis, may your day be filled with joy and happiness, your cake be chocolatey and ooey gooey and rich and your presents be diamonds and platinum!

I love ya!

Bitch of the day.

I know I'm not the only parent out there who has is tired and sore today. I'm tired because I was out late last night looking for school supplies that I SHOULD have bought a month ago but was unable to simply because the school doesn't have the schedules ready or have the open house early so that we can meet with the teachers BEFORE school so we can get our supply lists. When you get to Middle and High Schools you don't have a "generic" list like grade schools do. I'm sore because during my trip to Hell (some of you know it as Wal-Mart), a woman repeatedly kept running into my ankle with her cart. Repeatedly is an understatement. She did it on the binder aisle, then on the notebook aisle, then again near the dog food where I should have been safe but the damned woman sneaked up on me! She got me again by the markers and the last time I heard her talking on her cell and I jammed my hand out behind me and ran her own cart into her big melon shaped belly.

I already had a sore on my heel/ankle because my weight loss has made my shoes too big and now I have blisters on my heel because I wore shoes rather than my flip flops to work yesterday. Whine...... Oh well. LOL

I saw Brady and his Mom there too, they were shopping for supplies too. She had a bit of a glazed look on her face, I really think it was overwhelming!! They were out of so many things, I kid you not, they didn't have one single piece of loose leaf notebook paper! We left and went to Walgreens in search of some but they only had College ruled, MWH likes Wide ruled so we went to Marvin's this morning and sure enough there were 2 other parents there buying the same thing! Good grief. GET ORGANIZED!!!!!!!!!! It's not like they have an entire summer to plan for this crap!

7th Grade

My precious wonderful amazing baby girl started 7th grade this morning. She Veeted her hairy legs and donned her new Old Navy pleated mini skirt and lemme tell ya, she had her fash' on. LOL She was happier than, well, let's just keep this PG since I'm talkin about my kid. LOL

I, on the other hand, am at work. Today is great, all 3 wise men have made appearances today and things are going pretty smooth. Days like this are awesome.

Last night we went to MWH's Open House at her school. It rocked. She met with all but one teacher (better than last year) and got an idea of what supplies she'll need. She's excited about her locker, it's upstairs, and also that she has a few classes with friends. She also gets to chew gum in most of her classes. She did a MAJOR WOO HOO in front of each teacher who said gum was ok. Actually, most of them said "it stimulates the brain and aids the thinking process..." ok, whatever, she gets gum. Hello Orbit, please clean my kid's dirty mouth. LOL

We also went to get her new glasses last night. They look awesome, they're pink and "contemporary" and fitted with groovy Transitions lenses. Yes, I may have to sell a kidney or some other vital organ on Ebay to pay for them, but they are awesome.

Bob and I went to Buffalo Run last night for his free play and I put $3 in a One Red Cent machine and pulled out $25. I like nights like that. I did good.

Last week, my oldest half sister lost her mom. She had fought COPD for some time now and was in a great deal of pain. It's always sad to lose a loved one but I'm glad she's not in any more pain. I just hate to see my sister and her siblings suffer.

Lubriderm Advanced therapy

Don't ask me why I used that as the title, I couldn't tell you. I just sat down here to check my email and decided to blog. I put some lotion on my dry skin and poof. Title. Now my blogging fingers are moisturized by a lotion that

is for extra dry skin,
contains vitamins and nutrients,
is developed by dermatologists for healthier skin and
has a clean, non-greasy feel.

Yeah. Whatever.

Forgive me, Father, it's been 6 days since my last confession, er, um, blog post.

I can't tell you much about this week, it's just gone. I knew early it was going to be a bitch and dammit I was right, just one of those gut feelings you get I guess. Women's intuition, a premonition, no idea, I just knew I'd be lucky to survive it. My gut was so wrenched up I didn't do Free Play on Tuesday. Yeah, that bad.

Wednesday was insane and I found out a dear, dear friend of mine has melanoma. By the end of the day my head was pounding and I was ready to drink myself into a stupor but my alcohol restriction has another 9 more months. I just don't know if I can make it. LOL Thursday I took the day off to enroll MWH in 7th grade and I had to work the PTSO table at enrollment. That was fun. NOT. No one wants to be involved. Everyone is pissed over the way things ended last year and I don't know who's ass to kiss. Ok, so I wouldn't kiss anyone's ass even if I knew who's to kiss, but it would be nice to know who people are. There were at least a half dozen people came up and said they were NOT signing up because of last year. Um, helloooooo, last year is OVER, I'm new, give me a chance! I'm not going to worry about it, whatever will be will be. I did get quite a few to sign up and it's going to be fine. You can't please everyone and I don't give a flying fuck anyway. LOL MWH had a locker drama but it's all resolved now I hope. She's taking 2 Pre AP classes, I fear she's taking on a lot but she's a smart kid. She'll be fine. While I was there I had little to no cell phone reception and my (half) sister called me to tell me her mother had died. So sad. I didn't really know her mom but I know she loved her dearly. My sister is due next month and is having contractions and all kinds of complications, she did not need this right now. I feel so bad for her......

On a lighter note, Bob and I took MWH to The Swimmin' Hole in Joplin yesterday. I'm so surprised we'd never been there before! It kinda sucks we didn't go earlier this year, but that's ok, there is always next summer too. We're going back next weekend too and taking some friends. I'd heard bad things about the place so we just never went but then we got invited on an "outing" and we went. The water seemed cold at first but it was ok. My only complaints (ok, you know I have to bitch) is that the water was so filthy, leaves, bugs, pine-tree pines and so on..... ewwwwww and that the concrete was too damned hot. My feet are still sore! UGH!

We also took MWH to Old Navy to see if there were any school clothes left, she didn't need much really, just something different...... We found it. She's happy, I'm happy and it's all good.

It's time to get off my butt and on the laundry, dishes and other mundane crap I need to do. More later!

Rumors, they are among us

Last week, I met with the Principal at my daughter's school. I'm the PTSO President this year and I wanted to sit down with him to have a face to face. I wanted to know what was/is expected of me and what he hopes to accomplish this year.

Basically, I found out that he wants to phase out the end of year promotion (kinda like a graduation), he also doesn't seem too keen on having a PTSO in the first place. Sheesh, it sounds like this is NOT going to be fun. LOL

While discussing the promotion, he asked me about my planned benefit. I gave him a generic blank stare and asked him if he meant fund raiser, I was thinking candy bars or wrapping paper or T-shirts, something simple and mundane (yes, something right up my alley). He said something to the effect of sure, whatever you wanna call it...... Then he said Rascal Flatts. Again me with the blank look. I'm thinking hey, he knows Rascal Flatts! WOO HOO! Awesome, he's helping me on my first year, this is going to be GREAT!!!!!!! Then he proceeds to tell me that I knew someone from Rascal Flatts and was going to have them do a benefit to fund the promotion. Hot damn, I. Am. Good. So, as soon as I picked my chin off the ground I told him I didn't know anyone from Rascal Flatts, I could not spin straw into gold, sqeeze blood out of turnips nor could monkeys fly outta my ass.

Amazing...... I love rumors.

IIIIIIII'm gonna take that mountain......

I'm listening to Launchcast and Reba is singing her country twang. It kinda fits me today. I feel good, like I could conquer anything today. Bring it on. LOL

The weatherman says it might rain today, that is such good news since I didn't water my flower bed last night. Bob and I went out to High Winds for our free play but the IGT machines were messed up so we never got our free play. I did however put some more money in my favorite machine and *ding, ding, ding* I hit again! WOO HOO! I put in $20 (I was playing it down to $10 and stopping, really, MWH wanted some J&W custard) and pulled out $167.25. WOO HOO! Bob hit three banks in a row on Penny Lane and did well too. Between Tuesday and Wednesday nights I now have enough for my Jeep tags! YIPPEE!!!!!

My friend Cruella is having her surgery today, I'm sure hoping things go well for her, lots of good wishes and prayers!

Tuesday Night Drivel

Last night after work, I got a phone call from a lady I had called. I'd been putting the conversation off for a while until I talked to Bob, I wanted to make sure we were on the same page. Nothing overly important time wise, just long range life-planning kinda stuff. Well, I get off the phone and the discussion/argument ensues.

It's a very common argument, over the past 17 years we've cussed and discussed this type of matter repeatedly. Same story different day. Basically, in a nutshell, he was hot, tired and just beat from working 10 hours in 100+ degree heat. He can't physically or mentally take in much right after work, he needs to relax, cool down and collect his bearings. This is how he is, good or bad, it doesn't matter, it is what it is, but let me tell you, yesterday it fucking hit me like a ton of bricks.

I take so much shit off so many people, do this, go there, I don't need it at home and lemme tell ya, I'm not putting up with it from now on, at home or elsewhere.

So, after the discussion I had to go to Wal-Mart and get some pictures from MWH's camp experience and when I came back he was kissin' my ass like never before. It's amazing how nice he can be when he knows he has screwed up. Granted, I'm not perfect, he was partly right about some of the things he said about me, and I him, but when he (or anyone) starts in with "you always" or "you never" that's YOUR problem not mine. Those are your issues that you can't deal with, not mine. So in the end, Bob and I are fine, I know that he has his issues, all men do, but I have my own baggage too. Somedays things just set me off and only one of us can be mental at a time. LOL

I'm a nice person, (I actually almost didn't get this job because one of the bossmen thought I was "too nice", can you fucking believe that?) but I'm not that nice. I don't need your baggage, I don't need to hear your petty bitching, this is MY blog, this is MY life, you're welcome to leave anytime you want. I'm not your mother, sister, wife or daughter. FUCK OFF. Deal with it yourself! Don't come crying to me later and ask ME to clean up your God damned mess! I've got my own life to live and I. AM. LIVING. IT!

On a lighter note, the tree is 98% gone. All that remains is the stump. One of his work buddies came over last night with a tractor and hauled off the last of the wood and part of the trunk. That was very entertaining, he was having entirely too much fun up on that thing, hell, I was having fun watching him!

After the tree dispersal, we went to Buffalo Run for Bob's free play. I had $13 and put it in my favorite machine and got it up to $47, I cashed out hoping to hide my winnings for tags but I accidentally showed the wrong cash out ticket to Bob so he knew but since I was officially the Queen for the millenium he was just grateful I didn't lose my $13. We left there and went to High Winds for the Bounceback and I cashed out with $4 of their $10 and played another of my favorite machines and got it up to $121.xx. All in about 3 minutes. I nearly fell over. I had been playing another machine and it didn't do anything so I switched, a man sat down at my prior machine, put in $5 and it hit a red spin on his first spin. I told him I had done that and as he was chatting with me I hit two 7's and a bonus (I can't remember what it's called, not a Money Bags, but similar). WOO HOO! I never got a red spin but I was soooooooo not complaining! I cashed out and kept playing. All in all, I cashed out with $150 and I think that's incredible considering I only started with $13!

Tomorrow is a special day. Tomorrow is my 3 month anniversary from having gastric bypass. I've lost about 65 pounds, actually 75 in reality, the scales I use were recalibrated/moved twice so I gained 5 pounds twice but I've lost that again (does that make sense?). A friend gave me some 18 pants and I don't know how I'll ever fit in them, but I know that I will. Probably pretty soon too considering how my skinny pants I just bought are starting to hang off of me. LOL

This is a test...

... of the Idiot Bloggers Network.

I had to stop and call Irish Divinity this morning to ask her how to strike out text while blogging. I could have asked my child who knows everything HTML, I could have just freakin' remembered from my days of back up for the Pagan Princess or I could have just figured it out on my own but did I? No, I took the easy way out and called Divinity.

Ok, here goes, let's see if it works:

TMI Tuesday

Have you ever...

1. Had sex with someone ten years older or younger than you? As far as I know, no. Ewwwww. But I will admit that there were a few opportunities in my wilder years.

2. Drawn from a nude model? Actually yes. I can't draw worth a damn but I did do it once.

3. Had sex at a company Christmas party? Not at but after. Well, maybe in the parking lot. I was entirely too drunk.

4. Had a blind date? No, I've never dated anyone blind....... sheesh. LOL Actually, yes, I've been fixed up with someone I'd never met before, it turned out ok, he was nice, just new to the area. Totally not my type, but really a fun, fun guy!

5. Slept with a teacher? Slept with, yes. Fucked, no.

Bonus (as in optional): Had sex with someone within an hour of meeting them? No. I was brought up with a few morals and that is one of the few. Now, change the number of hours and you might be surprised.
