Comedy on Ebay

well, in my quest for organizational bliss I have resorted to scheduling a lot of things. Things I always think to myself “i should have done that” or “damn! i forgot to do that!” or “would be nice if i start doing that”. no matter how minute it may seem, it’s been scheduled. And believe me i still have a ways to go with other bigger tasks that need to be scheduled. (home world)

this is the third alert I’ve gotten from outlook today to “Brush Your Teeth”. I’m not clicking snooze again.. i’m just gonna go do it, dammit. It’s there for a reason. I’m trying to stick a brushing in the middle of the day somehow. anyway…. (for those of you laughing right now… i know i know)

I had a salad today for lunch which left me feeling pretty fucken proud of myself. I didn’t really want a salad but i got one anyway. when i have a craving for one, that doesn’t inspire pride because there’s no will power involved, just want. this was a real battle in my mind and the salad won!! I usually go for the greasy ass subs, fries, chips, etc, etc, etc.. What really helped to decide on a salad was the fat number on the scale when i weighed myself at shipping. 180!!! holy freaken cow! When I first came to work for this fabulous company, i was 135, 140 tops. mike w. wouldn’t recognise me if he saw me.

I made a sappy food revelation today. this is great.

so i found out what that stench was yesterday and did another load of laundry as soon as i got home. nope , it wasn’t dog poop and it wasn’t dog vomit. it was something far worse and i’m surprised i wasn’t able to identify it from the first second i smelled it. scully has some ass problems. what am I going to do with these dogs?!? i think we’ll have to deal with their messes till the yard gets done. she digs, and digs, and rolls in shit in the yard, and has allergies, and digs some more, chews herself to oblivion from the allergies and has scabs. she’s a total mess. i clean her up real good and it lasts only 2 days cuz the yard is just a huge dust bowl right now…

anyways, tomorrow we drive off in the am northward bound to start our trip. Dennis is just sooooooo excited. I am too, but I think it’s my turn now to be worried about the glass being half empty. I’m not pessimistic or “not excited”, I’m just waiting nervously to see how the trip really turns out. Maybe i’ve gotten burned too many times when I expect great things yet end up with a lemon.

Noel will be house / pet sitting for us while we’re gone and that’s great cuz it saves us from having to pay for boarding. It works out for him too cuz he works in west palm but lives way south by sheridan street.

We went window shopping on monday and I spotted our patio set. cheeeeeeep patio set which is what sold me on it. lol. We’re getting the patio set, a new gas bbq and a dish washer in a couple weekends. I can’t wait! I haven’t done any more work on the yard cuz of the trip and having to spend more time on bills and other things. It’s practically done except for fixing a sprinkler head, and leveling the ground. (both easy peazy) I’ve found a tree trimmer after ‘interviewing’ a few over the last 10 days and scheduled a date with him for a week from monday. (he’s the climber i mentioned before) He’s so cute cuz when i told him we had decided to go with him, he was sooo happy and kept saying “oh, i’m so happy. you have no idea how happy this makes me” He wears his emotions on his sleeve. lol! i think he’ll do a fantasmic job. that’s 20 (twenty – i finally counted) trees he will trim and clean up, and one stump removal. for (should i say it on here?) a little less than 800 bucks. For those of you without trees to maintain that sounds like a lot of money, but trust me, that is a steel. We paid 400 bucks once for one tree trim (which really stressed out the tree it was so bad) and a *really* lazy trim job on the other 14. *I* could have done a better job with our 6 foot latter. not good enough our trees are 40 feet high or more. i wish i had found this guy first. oh well..

Jada’s birthday is coming up in 3 months and we (*I*) have a lot to get done before then including all this and getting some furniture in the house. I don’t wanna invite all our fam over for a party and have the place look like the dump it is still w/ all the terribly dog-stained, hand me down furniture we still own. but i’m hopeful it’ll all work out.

OK, so most people would feel too embarassed to say this but..

WHAT IS THIS SMELL ON ME!!!??? So last night, i smelled this odd smell while we were watching Kill Bill Vol.1. (LOVED it, btw) I’m sitting on the couch and smelled it couple times. and i thought.. I just showered, put clean clothes on and washed my hair too soo… I start sniffing my pits, shirt, hands… nothing. Again smell it, aaagghh.. nasty smell too. started sniffing myself and everything around me… ..but still nothing.

this morning I put clean clothes on again and everything else and, bam! there it is again. really bad smell. so i figure it’s just something in the room or house and “i’ll find whatever it is later”.
I come to work, am sitting at my desk and bam! there it is again. It has to be me but WHAT THE FUCK IS IT!

Why do babies sometimes stick their butts waaaay up in the air when they’re sleeping? lol

i realized (again) yesterday that i don’t know how to have fun playing video games. maybe that’s why i can’t usually get into them. I do like super-mario type games and maybe that’s why ratchet and clank has stuck.. but yeterday as i was sitting on the couch playing ferverishly i had a ton of distractions. jada stretching her neck my way trying to get my attention off the tv (that was cute), mountains of laudry calling my name, dirty dishes all around me poluting my fengshui, bills burning a hole in my mind… I just couldn’t relax enough to enjoy it. I caught myself thinking “i’ll get to all that as soon as i finish this game’ as if the game was just another chore that needed to be completed. Not fun, just another “must finish” item. Jesus.

but i stuck with it dammit. i was “gonna have some fun whether i liked it or not!”

… and i’m not usually one to cry.

remember that woman i posted about who’s 9 month old drowned in the tub? she decided to post again after long time.
read her thread.

such a senseless death.. it’s just too hard to try to make ‘sense’ out of it.
