While the "cats" are away......

Well since Debby and Laura wont take us all on vacation with them, shall we make them "wonder" what we all may be talking about?

Shall I open the blog floor up to a question and answer session? HeeHeee!

D'plane...D'plane.....Let's Talk Tattoos

No not the short man in a white suit Tattoo, the permanant ink kind.

Whose got um? What are they of? Where are they strategically placed?

I have 3:
One is on my shin of the Warner Brothers Orange Monster, Gossamer. Remember him? Let's dip our patties in the water....

Then on the top of one arm I have a little Shamrock with stick legs and grinning.

On the other arm I have an Irish Claddagh. Its pretty big, not sure what I was thinking when I got it.

I also got a gift certificate from Laura & Deb for Christmas last year, so I will be heading to the ink man again soon.

Can't decide if I want a rainbow on my back somewhere or something NY Yankee like on my ankle area.

Any votes on the new one?

Great Job Girls..

Well I must say, Deb and Laura totally lived up to my expectations in their memories of the past.

Even though I lived it with them, I am still laughing hysterically!

We've been through the good & the bad. The ugly & the pretty. The boring and the fun. I love you gals!

Speaking of bathrooms and such

Laura's entry and the fact that I drank some shots tonight with her and with Deb got me thinking.

But what I'm going to do is let them tell the stories. If I feel there are any discrepencies, I'll let ya know.

1. Peeing in the woods at a concert with Laura
and
2. Trying to sneak a peak, with a friend, of Deb in the diner bathroom stall before a concert.

Hmmmmmmm? Maybe we shouldn't do concerts anymore? Yeah right! Wonder what will happen on April 1st at the Eagles concert?

In the meantime, feel free to try and "guess" what is going to be said if you'd like.

It's here...Today's the day

Yeah baby! Its Survivor day! I'm sooo excited I can barely wait til 9pm tonight to watch it. 9pm you say, isnt it on at 8pm? Well yes it is. But.....

Well my 14 yr old niece will have me living in the central time zone today. I am picking her up this afternoon and taking her for a hair dye job and cut. The shop closes at 8pm, so by the time we get home and settled it will be after the start of the show. I'm one of those people where if I miss the first 2 minutes of a show, well then forget it, I will not watch. I have to see it ALL.

I have watched Survivor since the first season....

I love this show. Yes, some were better than others. Some of the people were complete bores to me. But I dont care. I would love to be on Survivor. But dont ask me to do anything or eat any kind of creepy crawly insect!

Not in it for the money but for the chance to loose the weight and stop smoking. I have no will power in the real world. So put me on an island somewhere where there is no food or convenience store to buy things I shouldnt have.

Keep your million dollars. Just leave me alone to detox and melt off a few pounds in misery by myself. Thats all I ask.

A perfectly good evening.....

Gone straight to hell. Yup, that's the night I had. Well, it didnt start that way. I'll try and explain.

I had a nice invite from the Princess & the Tramp (don't ask me to link them, I can't tonight)to have some takeout dinner and to watch a movie or two. Yay! I'm excited, I track down the movie we all agreed on and look forward to going over after ::wink wink:: work.

Well at some time during the day, I sneezed. I mean I SNEEZED! Ever since then my nose is like a facet and will not stop. I am already on tissue box number 2 for the day. Can you say Rudolph nose? Well I'm living it right now. Then at some point, my throat started to hurt alittle bit. I thought maybe I just had a stale pack of cigs. No biggie.

Gone straight to hell. Yup, that's the night I had. Well, it didnt start that way. I'll try and explain.

So anyway the drive to see the girls isnt far for me at all. We all live about 20 mins from each other. It seemed like it took forever. Then of course I had to be sure to dodge the low flying aircraft at the airport. You heard about that last week, right?

So the drive there I am sneezing my head off and blowing my nose nonstop. Now I am starting to sweat? Am I having an allergy attack? Or am I getting sick? Or am I just having a panic attack about the fact that I may have to sneeze or worse, blow my nose, in front of "you know who" because of how she feels about germs and such. Oh my god, I cant even imagine what my blood pressure was at that point!

Anyway we had a nice dinner and real life chat session and I left them the movie to enjoy.

So I get home and crawl onto the couch to just die. These are the times when I MOST hate being alone in life. Not that I would expect my "SO" to blow my nose or rectally take my temperature, but it would be nice for someone to tuck the blanket around you and maybe make you a hot cup of tea. Nothing like that going on here. I went to put the blanket on but it fell to the floor, and its still there. Instead of tea I poured myself some cranberry juice. FYI, cranberry juice with NO alcohol in it SUCKS!

So I just woke up on the couch alittle while ago, setup the coffee for the am, put the furball in his cage and here I sit infront of the computer. Fastforward to my inbox, there is an email from my sister:

"Hi, just wanted to let you know that today I went to the doctor and I have strep throat. I hope you didnt catch any germs while you were here last night. Have a good weekend! Bye" Niiiiiiice!

So now I am doubling up on the cranberry juice, the drugs I have available, and opening a brand new box of tisses. Tomorrow am, I better feel slightly better cause its a 35 minute drive to my sister's house where I will be kicking her ASS for getting me sick!

BTW, I hope everyone has a nice weekend!
