Glass + Glass = Lots of Smaller Glass

This evening I decided to go to the grocery. I only picked up a few thing. Two things I will mention here because they are the only two that are pertinent here. First, a glass jar of jalapenos. Second, a glass jar of taco sauce.

Now, we all know that I am picky about how my groceries are bagged. Please see "Why Won't You Lettuce Be ", if you have any questions.

The same dumbass (the star of the above mentioned blog post) bagged my two glass jars together. Why do baggers do this crap? I think it might be a conspiracy! Urrrrrgh! It kills me. Use some common sense! Bastards!

In the lab, I would never, ever store two glass bottles in the same bag. Something might blow up! Ya' never know...

Checkin' In

Alrighty then...I know that I took the easy way out last night using the 2 and 1/2 men, but hey, how I am I supposed to blog and watch one of my fav shows! I am not a multitasker. Sorry.

So tonight I came home and started some jewelry orders. I like to do that because it completely takes my mind off of everything. It is almost like therapy. My husbands therapy is his car. So, I gotta have something of my own. People are starting to order for the holidays so I will have to start spending less and less time blogging and more time working for Byer Jewelry. They say you work harder for yourself than anyone. I think it's true!

Well, talk at ya' later! Have a happy hump day! :0)

My Favorites on Monday Night Television

TWO AND A HALF MEN is a comedy about men, women, sex, dating, divorce, mothers, single parenthood, sibling relations, surrogate families, money and most importantly, love. In other words, it is a comedy about life--more specifically, the life of two brothers, a son/nephew and the many women who surround them all. Charlie Harper (Charlie Sheen) is a well-to-do bachelor with a house at the beach, a Mercedes in the garage and an easy way with women. His casual Malibu lifestyle is interrupted when his tightly wound brother, Alan (Jon Cryer), and Alan's son, Jake (Angus T. Jones), come to stay with him. Complicating matters further are Charlie's and Alan's narcissistic, emotionally toxic mother, Evelyn (Holland Taylor); Alan's deeply neurotic ex-wife, Judith (Marin Hinkle); Charlie's domineering, unapologetically blue-collar housekeeper, Berta (Conchata Ferrell); and Rose (Melanie Lynskey), a brilliantly manipulative and vaguely crazy neighbor who had a brief fling with Charlie, is obsessed with him, and is determined to stay in his life by whatever means necessary. Despite the complexities of their lives and their own strained relationship, Charlie and Alan have one thing in common--they both love Jake and want what's best for him. As a result, they manage to create a little family unit that promises to make each one of them a better man.

I love this show. It makes me laugh out loud when I'm watching it. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it!

I Think I'm In Love

Right now I am doing the dishes. I am working so, so hard. That's right, blogging and washing the dishes as we speak.

Now, that can mean only one of two things;

Choice #1: There is a fantastic new kitchen sink that comes equipped with a monitor and "thought to key typing" capabilities.

-OR-

Choice #2: I finally took the plunge and bought a dishwasher. Ya' know after weeks and weeks of bitchin'.


Yes, ladies and gentleman I have bought a dishwasher. Now, contrary to popular belief, the DW is not a standard in all homes.

.
Allow me to introduce you to the new Love of my life.

Hungry?

Why must all yummy foods be bad for us? I have just discovered my belove 1/3 lb burger has 1 million carbs, 2 million fats, and 15 million calories. Oh and the sodium! Of course I refer to the Hardees 1/3 lb bacon cheese burger and small curly fries. So good, but sooo bad! Damnit!

Road Rage

Do you ever just find yourself wishing you had something to throw at people when they act like dumb asses on the road? Well, I do not wish to cause bodily harm to these idiots that run about our fair city in their kamikaze fashion, but I only wish to spray motor oil on their windshields.

Now, as for some others who find themselves irritated behind the wheel, they just pull up next to the person who pisses them off, and they shoot at them. Just the other day this happened in Red Bank, TN. (Not too far from where I live.)

See below story:
Road rage on Interstate 24 Sunday sends bullets flying - and lands one man in jail. A official from the Tennessee Highway Patrol says 2 mini vans were traveling on I-24 near the Tracy City exit, when the passenger of one car pulled out a gun and fired at least three shots at the other mini van. One bullet struck the vehicle, which was carrying two 11-year-old boys. No one was hurt. The driver used his cell phone to call for help. T-H-P caught up with the suspect Alex Fider near the Kimball exit and took him into custody. Fider is currently at the Marion County Jail facing 3 charges of aggravated assault.


Now, I hear on other news stations that the accused party is also a physician. Guess what kind he is.....A shrink!

The reason why I have went off on this tangent is that, well, I have zero patience for people who drive like dumb asses. I had this happen to me on the way home and found myself profusely waving my "driving" finger!

Midweek update

Today went by ok. Here it is Tuesday, and I am
already wishing it were Friday. Tomorrow is hump-day, and it will be all down hill from there.
So, I got things I need to do around the house and so they are not sooooooo bad on Friday,I think I might give a whirl today.

BTW, before I forget, please stop by www.luvyourpets.blogspot.com

There is a special little kitten that needs a home. If we keep this kitten there is liable to be a mutiny and the government overthrown!

This one is #4 and we just don't have room. I mean my house is covered in cat hair and hell, even that cat hair is covered in cat hair. Quick, someone call 1-800-HOOVER!

Get your motor runnin'

I am still looking at new cars. I so do not want to pay for a car though. I have looked hard to find something that is affordable for myself. Dodge Caliber seems to have my attention right now. I want something that is good on gas. Also, it should have a good warranty or the car company should offer some pretty good incentives. I don't really "need" a new car,but I do "want"one, kindda. If I had about $6,000.00 my payments on this black beauty would be about 200.00 a month.

Little blue box

So, I come home after a wonderful dinner out with the love of my life, and check out my blog...I have a little blue box for beta blogger...I am excited yet hesitant. I am afraid of change. Change is usually permanent in some way. I like predictability.

Damn little blue box!!!! Decisions, decision! What to do, what to do?

Maybe I'll do a "test" blog there.

Most of the time I just wing it when it comes to bloggy stuff, I am no smarty-pants when it comes to el computer. I do try to stay current (within the last 3 years anyways, *snicker*).

I think I might have to do my homework on this one....I hate to read computer stuff! With the exceptions of all my fav. blogs of course, I sooo love the blogs!

Stay tuned, I will let you know how it turns out!

Outta the way

Now I have the week outta' the way and here comes the weekend. Damnit Janet! I got house work to do again. "Can't we get the boy to do it?" *whine*
Why can I not make enough money to have a maid? It is only fair. I mean, my husband and I work hard all day and then we come home and work even harder to make a mess of our home. We have no children. Why the hell does my house always run a muck? (amuck, amuck, amuck!)
Honestly I think it is the whole sugarrejectionantithyroidalinsulinresistance syndrome.
I will however, be purchasing a dishwasher soon and that will help lighten the load.

Shout out!

I love yooooou, I honestly love yooooou!

Pay attention

If you ever find yourself traveling in front of me, on the freeway, at a high rate of speed (of course obeying the set speed limitations), do not, I repeat DO NOT slam on your damn brakes!!!!! If you happen to see a policeman...please remain calm! Sure if you're goin' along at about 100mph in a 70, please feel free to. Luckily at that speed, I will not be behind you. I obey the speed limit...Most of the time...Within 5 to 10 mph....

Why oh why do people feel it necessary to slow to 40mph or less in a 65 zone if they see a policeman?!?!?!?!

News Flash: if you do participate in such activities that you feel might require you to spend a lovely evening in the company of a county mounty if said mounty were to search your shit (ya got 99 problems), slamming on the brakes will make you look a little conspicuous!

I find your lack of faith disturbing: Snakes on a Motherfucking Plane

I find your lack of faith disturbing: Snakes on a Motherfucking Plane

Snakes On a Plane??

I must admit when I heard the guys on the radio talking about this one morning, I thought that they were just yankin' my chain like morning show people do. But its real. I can not imagine that this would be a very good movie. I can't beleive that SLJ is starring in this movie.

Maybe I am wrong, maybe it will be a good film. The title just says to me "cheese".
Apparently some think this is a fantastic name for a movie. Personally I think it's a little campy.

Aghhh, hell

Given my previous post, isn't it ironic that my google ads have decided to pimp the effexor?

I wonder if Alanis would add this as a verse in her song.
Hehehe!

Effexor Hell

I am stuck in effexor hell! I would like to stop taking this medicine. Perhaps find something that has less side effects. Also, I would eventually like to start having children. You see, you can not take the effexor and nurse a baby. I would also like to get rid of my twitching eyebrow, quivering bottom lip and many other muscle issues, including weakness, I have received from said drug. Of course fatigue, nausea, vomiting and a bevy of goodies come along with this list of side effects. Effects my Dr did not tell me about. I take this med for social anxiety disorder. Also, it dulls the sharpness of a rabid temper that I have. When I try to dicuss this with the doc he just prescribes me a lower dose. To my knowledge, there is no lower dose than 37.5 mg. I am currently on that mg.

Eventually I will wean myself off. It will take about 8 wks to do so. Hopefully I will get through this without having any of the following happen: getting fired, getting divorced, or die.

I missed work today because I was so "drunk" with vertigo I could not drive, let alone get there and wield needles at my patients.

Has anyone else ever had this issue? I am sure I am not the only one.

Yummy for the tummy

I want food!

I don't know why, but lately all I want to do is eat and eat and eat! WHY? I follow a good diet normally. Recently I just can't get enough junk. I think I have gained 5lbs this week. Urghhh...
I have eaten at least one full half gallon of Mayfield's Banana Split Ice Cream. Yummy! But now, I want more. It's like there is a monster inside. Will it ever come to an end? Hopefully this week it will rest itself by tomorrow.

I'd rather be blogging!

I hate cleaning the house. I wish I could pay someone else to do it. It is not that the house is really that "dirty", it's just very messy. Mail strode everywhere, dirty clothes that need to be attended to, dishes that long for a dish washer, magazines everywhere...(my husband has a magazine weakness)...I am worn out from working all week and now I will have to spend the better part of the weekend cleaning up said mess. Plus there is yard work that needs to be done, but dammit, it's hot!

I got in my car the other day and the thermometer said 107F!!! HOT,HOT,HOT!

I would rather watch movies, work on making more jewelry, or blog!!

Jokes on him...

Well, to celebrate the idiocy of MG, I think we all deserve a good laugh at his cost.
Crazy ass anti-Semitic bastard! I don't care if he was drunk when he said what he said, I am not going to spend any money ever again on anything he is affiliated with. I also hope his career tanks because of this. It probably won't, but hey, doesn't hurt to say it.
