strange ending to the week

So yesterday was just the strangest day.



So I come home, we watch Charlie and the Chocolate Factory --which by the way is a great movie.... very well done. Had made plans to get dinner with the roommates... so I was upstairs getting dressed. When I went to come back down the stairs ... down I went on my hip. I now have a huge bruise on my upper thigh... joy. Luckily I am not hurt badly. So despite my spill down 3/4 of our uncarpeted stairwell -- I decide it is a good idea to walk to dinner. So the three of us depart on our trek to get sushi. It is a long walk in the dark up Rt 1. We arrive and there are no lights on and a sign on the door stating they would be closed for the next 3 days.... BAH! So now there are 3 adults --- very hungry adults-- standing out side of a sushi place in a not so great part of town with no transportation. Ok so I am the queen of bright ideas... no sushi, no sake, no miso soup... :( and to top it off no real good way to go somewhere else. We then do what any other self respecting people do when posed with disappointment... we start the walk back and try to brain storm ideas as far as food. I then mentioned the vietimese place up the street from the house. So we settled for that. Food turned out to be really good. Full bellies and a couple of hours later we return home to watch more movies for the remainder of the night.

Who would have thought dinner would have been that much effort?!!??!?

So I am sitting here with a sore leg and fond thoughts of vietimese food (which the first time i ever tried it ... I got sick)

Lets hope the weekend is a tad less painful... between the rear ending and the falling down the stairs... I'm about spent on being sore and grumpy.

BTW tequila may take away the pain... but you always wake up remembering exactly why you were drinking the tequila. Damn short-term forgetfulness.

Likely resting for the remainder of the day...

work week from hell... so far

Welcome ladies and gents to Janet's personal hell... enjoy your stay and pray you get out alive.

So my work week starts with a holiday
... I know ... you are thinking this is good.... wrong-o...
I only get a 32 hour week check... and it throws off my entire week... way to start the week

Computer portion of the tour begins....
our laptops suck... no one likes them and they are like the old ball and chain
I cannot get mine to go online... therefore it is essentially useless to me for the time being

Then we move on to Wreck-nesday...
yeah ... I got rear ended. it sucked... only minor damage to both cars...
and no one got hurt. No tickets issued... bet if I had hit him I would have had a ticket.... damn it.
not that I wanted the poor dude to get a ticket... just a matter of me having to take traffic school for speeding recently AND paying a 100+ dollar fine AND having it on my record... and if I HIT someone or something... apparently there is no punishment... fuck..it... i am going out and hitting the next bastard who pisses me off.... seems like a decent deal.... oh wait... insurance.. there is no justice in the world.
AND I STILL HAVE TO DO PAPERWORK!!! i get punished once again.

Then we have today... the fucking phone won't stop ringing and beeping... and I am off the fucking clock.

As for Friday... BRING IT... i can soooo handle it.

can't wait til tomorrow is OVER

wonderful wonderful 3 day weekend

first off let me start by saying that i have absolutely nothing planned for the next three days... i can have a wonderful time of sleeping, laundry, cleaning and otherwise productive activities.

so ofcourse i get on line this afternoon... looking for new and exciting things to do...
so i stumble across my space... now go... make yourself a page and become my friend or if you have a page and i'm not aware of it... add me to your friend list... www.myspace.com/evilmaithai

now i have yet been sucked into yet another blackhole of wasted time sponsored by the world wide web.... oh well better than roaming the streets.

i do plan to keep my blog here... occasionally i may add a blurb or two to my space's blog... but nothing major... i enjoy my blogger site!

other endeavors on my internet list of time to waste include: friendster& facebook

so far tonight i have done some laundry and been extremely lazy.... seriously need to study or atleast pick up a resourceful hobby... oh well....

mouse update: apparently i only had 4 and i caught all of them in an hour.... i'm quite the mouse slayer if i do not say so my self. traps are still set and i'll be ready if any decide to take up residence again.

thought about going home for the weekend decided that took effort.

work: meeting, lunch, phone calls, feeder inspection started in PG, oil change.... that was my day

i'd have to say my adventure que is quite empty.... need to roam more and find more trouble. maybe tomorrow... maybe not...

until then.

not feeling so well

so i am hoping this is not a relapse of the cold i had.... got home today... spent more than 4 hours sleeping... woke up coughing and with a nasty headache.... hmmmm....

well in an attempt to feel better i'm going to bed early and medicating.

wish me luck

mickey mouse can die

arrrrrg.... we have mice.... idiotic, creepy, nasty rodents... bah! all i want is for them all to die... is this so much to ask? so ... because we all have dogs.... i am using traps to do away with the little bastards. poison would be so much easier... but that could be bad. so this is my first time using glue traps... quite the inhumane way of handling things.... however 75% more effective than snap traps so far.

maybe i will soon have victory ...

Feeling entirely better this week... the past two weeks had been hell.... i was congested with a chest cold and some other unpleasantness.... just over all generally sick. slowly pulling my life back together into some form of make shift organization.... think i'll spend the entire weekend catching up on sleep and cleaning. nice to have the holidays done and over with. i have monday off .... yay 3 day weekends.... as the days get longer and i can effectively work 10 hour days... i look forward to more and more 3 day weekends *grin*.

spent last weekend in b'burg for ryan and james' wedding... overall a fabulous event .... was wonderful to share their day with them....

work has been going well.... trees.... more trees... did i mentions trees? harrass me about my arborist exam... i need to be studying.... would like to have it done and over with before july... yeah really harrass me about studying! i have procrastinated long enough!

*yawn* i realize that i don't post nearly as often as i should .... maybe once things settle back down i will again become an avid blogger and even add pix from time to time. to my *fans* thanks for keeping the faith and to those reading for the first time.... definately checkout last years archives..... you'd be surprised as to where i've been and what all i have been up to.... seriously hoping this year proves to be boring on the travel side of things.... however i have already offered to be on the hurricane duty list should they need me.... yes i am a glutton for punishment and enjoy the large paychecks.... long days ... and challenging changes of scenery.

enough for now ....

well one last thing... marcus vick is offically a moron-- who throws away opportunity ? ... 'nuff said.

mid week madness and new years musings

so whose idea was it to allow this whole work thing into our sense of normalicy? now don't get me wrong... i like to work hard for what a get and work hard at all i do. but why is it we each go to a "job" daily. i look at what i get out of the job world and i have to wonder... what is it all for exactly? i don't get all i make ... taxes and the cost of living eat up most of any reward i get from my earnings. my time is spent in debt to someone else. when i do get free time that time is spent recovering from the perils of working. when i want to work for myself -- i.e. spend the extra time to make something in my world better .... i am left either paying to accomplish this or too busy to make it happen. i look at the people who live off of my tax money daily and think... damn. i slave and toil... these folks get to exist... ya know if it were simpler times those people would most likely die out of starvation or stupidity... why not let nature take its due course? equality is a government myth that we make happen daily.... if all were out there taking responsibilty for their survival... i could possibly have the time and energy to enjoy what it is i do and all that i get from it.

enough said. work week has been long already ... and i close my eyes and breath... i hate the fact that i have to be so damn negative... guess my new year's resolution should be to think happy thoughts and just float on through this world... seems like the older i get the less amused i am... here's to being immune to the bullshit and all that goes along with that ..... may i not get trampled by the rest of the world in the mean time.

so i am off to spread happiness and joy where ever i go or some crap like that.... BAH! (guess resolutions WERE made to be broken... )
