It's a Small World After All....

The other day I was thinking back to the time I lived on Jefferson Street in Stevens Point. At that time I lived in the upstairs of a two story house with Smelly Kelly but she isn't important to this story. The people downstairs I remember vaguely as two guys and a blonde woman, a baby and a dog. Now nothing unusual really happened with the neighbors, they were mostly quiet, except for their radio. However, the only reason I bring this up is that I had suspected I know those same people today in different circumstances.

Huh? I'm sure you're asking. Let me explain.

As most of you all know I have a friend named Rich (or turd monkey, or if you're Jennifer monkey turd). He currently lives with his brother in Plover, ironically his house is directly behind a house Jake and I were looking at to buy but I digress. Now Dan (Rich's brother) is married to Shelly the Shrew. She is a blonde woman.

Now I have been to Rich's house a few times most recently two weeks ago when he wanted to chat, drunk chat is more like what happened, but again I digress. As I was sitting there talking with him I noticed pictures of a dog. A German Shepard. Now the dog of the people who lived below me was also a German Shepard. Not unusual but it must have triggered something.

Today as I was driving my friend Rich to blow, I asked him how long his brother was living in his house now? He said about 7-8 years. Now I lived on Jefferson Street about 7-8 years ago...then I asked what street he lived on before that. He said, Jefferson. He said he lived there with him, and then Dan met Shrew. I said was it a yellow house? He said yes.

Now it is really ironic to me that 8 years ago I was living above Rich and his brother and the Shrew, Gage the baby and Bandit the dog and didn't even know it. (I'm not a social butterfly, I left them alone and they left me alone.) This is why I constantly thought their engagement picture was familiar to me. They had slipped one under our door one day (I think it was a neighborly gesture or something). I never kept it since I didn't know these people but I guess I remembered it.

And every time I saw this picture at Dan's house I was always trying to place where I knew it from. Now I know, they were my neighbors and I never even knew it.

I might have to ask Rich about who played that radio so loud...

I guess it really is a small world.

Has it really been a month?

Okay so I know I've been neglecting my blogging duties but really I've been busy, nothing exciting to report but busy. I don't seem to get a day to myself at all. Here in general is my week. Since I consider my week to start on Thursday that is were we will begin...

Thursday
Sleep until 12 or so (I work overnight so I'm not slacking)
Try to do a load of laundry
Do the dishes
Sometimes have to pick Jake up
Usually I have to take him somewhere (fishing or store or whereever)
Figure something out for dinner
Go to work until 5am.

Friday
Sleep until 12 or so...see above for reason
Always try to do laundry
take dogs for walk
go to work for 7pm

Saturday
Sleep
Laundry
Dishes
clean either bathroom, kitchen or livingroom
go to work

Sunday
Sleep (this is an important step for me, usually at this point during the week, I sleep until 3)
Make dinner
clean up
go to work

Monday
Sleep until noon
Then I have to do major cleaning
Laundry
meal planning
help Mom with her Ebay stuff

Tuesday
Sleep usually only until 9 or so...
Take Jake to his counselling appointment
Take Jake for lab work (once a month)
Take Jake to Wausau for his doctor's appointment

Take dogs for walk
dishes
laundry

Wednesday
Sleep only until 8
Take Rich to Class/Counselor
Help Mom with Ebay
Clean up house
Take dogs for a walk
Dinner
Dishes

Plus on random days I need to pick up Rich to take him to blow...it is a neverending cycle.

I just wish that one day a month I could disappear for 12 hours and do anything I wanted. But unfortunately I can't.

The Sun is my enemy

I got sunburned on my shoulders today. Plus a strip along my back just north of my butt. So I guess from now on, I will be wearing the sun screen.

I'm really tired too, I worked at the condo with my parents so that was nice to earn some money but I'm tired and I'm burnt and I just want to sleep. Well get some nookie first and then sleep.

Oh well, I'll probably only get the sleep.

Well have a wonderful Friday everyone and I'll speak with you later.

Well La Dee Freakin Da!

Well again Jennifer has earned 200 points for her correct answers they are as follows:

Movie - Beerfest
Character - Landfill
In the car - Jan, Todd and Fink
Bonus - SuperTroopers and Club Dredd

Romantic Comedy - Donald Sutherland or Nigel Honeycutt

SMP -

S - Alex
M - Pat
P - Bob

And Jennifer, what does Finally mean in your comment?

So well here we are again. It's Friday and I'm a bit tired today actually.

I'm not sure if I should go to Wisconsin Dells this year, I have a huge guilt complex that is kicking in since I owe my Dad and Brother money and I would feel really guilty if I used the money to go on a "vacation" when I could pay them back. I told my Mom about this but she said that Dad didn't mind, he said he wouldn't be upset and she hasn't spoken to Michael yet since he is in Minnesota. I guess we'll see perhaps I won't even have the money saved by then.

Well anyway, here are the questions:

Movie Quote #444

"You have sunk my battleship."

What movie? Can you name the three characters in this scene?

Bonus - What other movie do you find two of these other characters.

SMP

Bill Clinton
Barack Obama
George W. Bush

Good Morning Starshine, The Earth Says Hello

What a boring week. I mean really.

I didn't do much on Monday, I went up to Wausau to visit my friend Brenda. I swear she is going to become the female version of the 40 year old virgin. 30 years and counting.

So my Aunt Flo was visiting this weekend, she has finally left to bug someone else for a few weeks, so since she was here I of course had to go and visit the doctor. Doctor Bergin was gone so I saw Doctor Perkins. Well of course it is back on the clomid and continue with the Metformin. Hopefully Jake's swimmers are in Olympic form this month. Starting Sunday we can be like rabbits. So that was Tuesday.

Wednesday I had to take Rich to his class. I had to pick up his sister Mel to blow as well, she's nice but I just have to wonder how they can both be drinking and smoking but neither has a job? I know Rich gets unemployment right now but seriously get a job flipping burgers it would be better wouldn't it?

Then I cleaned my house. It was lovely.

So today I helped my mom do more stuff in her yard and I seriously don't think she is ever going to be done doing stuff there. Now I'm at work.

Book Report:

I have read the book Every Boy Has One by Meg Cabot - this was a very funny and cute book. Not too sexual but after Smart Mouth it was a nice vacation.

I am currently still working on Wild by Lori Foster, Sleeping with Beauty by Donna Kauffman, Thigh High by Christina Dodd, Heartbreakers by Lori Foster, The Alibi Club by Francine Matthews and Merrick by Anne Rice.

Movie Trivia #40901

"I like sitting in the middle."

What movie? Can you also name the character and the others in the car with him?

Bonus: Name two other movies that feature these same actors...

Romantic Comedy #101

In the movie Fool's Gold, who is Kate Hudson's employer? Character or Actor's name.

SMP -

Bob Barker
Pat Sajack
Alex Trebek

Sunday - And I need a Pirate Patch

Okay since Jennifer lodged a complaint I will give her back her 200 points and give her another 50, (kinda pointless since I'm not keeping track of points but if its important to her).

So okay, I don't know shit about law anything...The filing fee is $150. I'm guessing here.

But anyway I'm watching my friends dog while she is in Baltimore with her husband. She returns on Tuesday and I just found out that I'm allergic to her dog. My left is is watering constantly I can barely see and I think I need a pirate patch. It freakin hurts.

Well I haven't had a chance to read any more books, still working on them. So you will have to wait for the next update to learn if they are any good.

Yesterday was Sam's birthday and I called to wish him Happy Birthday. Apparently I'm boring since he put the phone down on the table and just walked away. Maybe I should tell him I'm keeping his birthday present now since he didn't even say good bye to me....hmmm...

Well that is all, have a lovely Memorial Day everyone!

Just a thought...

Okay this is out of the ordinary for me but it was something that I was thinking about at work tonight. A girl I used to work with named Kayla just had another baby. This is her third child and she will be 22 this year. Now I'm not against people having kids young or having a whole baseball team worth of children, as long as they can afford to take care of them.

Now Kayla and her husband Matt (who is also 22) have a 4 year old, a 2 year old and now this new baby. The last I heard they were in Florida and so broke they had to borrow money to stay at a cheapo motel (one where I have no doubt rented rooms by the hour). Now however they are back in Stevens Point and he is playing softball (again I don't care but if you can't afford a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of, what the fridge are you playing softball for?). She isn't working and he works at Best Buy.

So it really bugs me that people at work expect me to just say oh congratulations on your newest little baby son of a bitch and so on. Well I can't. I state that I don't think they were ready to have another baby when they can't afford themselves let alone the two kids they already had.

Do you notice this trend? People who are can barely afford the essentials like food, clothing and shelter have like 800 kids? Why are they so fertile? Is it because they don't eat?

It really does boggle my mind...perhaps you can explain it to me?

Well that is my thought.

As The World Turns

The answers are as follows:

Jennifer gets points taken away since she hasn't seen this movie! -200

Bonus: Yes, he can speak French fluently.

Well not much has happened today. I did dishes, laundry and took a shower. I'm pretty excited about that last one since I did it all by myself. Normally I need someone to help me since I'm as big as a house and can't normally wash myself. So really it was an exciting day.

I also finish Smart Mouth. It was excellent, I would recommend it to anyone!

I will finish blogging at this time. Please post a question or brain stumper for me. Thanks!

So lets see what I've been up to this week...

Monday, I met my friend Becky at the dog park on Monday, I will be babysitting her dog Jasmine when she goes to Baltimore this weekend and we wanted to see how my dogs were with Jasmine. They played very well together so it is a go right now. After the dog park we went for a walk with Mom and Dad and then the dogs slept for like ever. We went to dinner in Wisconsin Rapids to the Hong Kong Buffet. I of course got sick later that night...I'm not sure if it is the MSG or what but good lord look out.

Tuesday I gave Rich a ride to blow and then I went over to Mom and Dad's house. Sassy slept for like 15 hours. He was that tired from Monday. That or just lazy I haven't quite made up my mind. So I went over to Mom and Dad's and played Madame Fate on the computer for 3 hours. Michael got me addicted to this game and it really isn't that hard. It is basically like a Where's Waldo, you find the hidden objects on the screen to unlock more levels.

Wednesday it was blazing hot. Like 84 and slightly humid. I know you Arkansas dwellers will be laughing but up here in the North that is hot and we weren't expecting it or quite used to it yet. Anyway, I had to get up really early to take Rich to court, he needed to be there at 8.45 so we got there at 8.30. We then had to wait until 10am before we were able to leave. I'll tell you I had to pee like never before. So he then had to go across the street for his class and then I went to the library. I got 4 new books and will probably finish those within a week.

Rich got 60 days in jail, a fine of $1365.00, license revocated for 27 months and for the next month and a half he has to continue with his class and blowing when his color comes up. Now isn't it worth it to drink a drive?

So Jake and I went for a walk again last night. We were kinda pissed at each other but we tried to get along since I think it was the heat and the fact that we were both tired so we were kinda nit picking at each other. But we survived.

Today I had to work at 7p - 5a, its my new shift and I'm okay with it. I only had to move it back by and hour. However God woke up this morning and he looked down at me and said, "I hate you Amy and you will hate being at work tonight." My computer isn't loading our Apollo program, this is our booking system and without it I can't do my job. So now some computer geek will have to come to my desk tomorrow and fix it. If it isn't fixed I will not be happy at all.

So here I sit at Rose's desk since she won't be in until Sunday. All of the stuff I need is at my desk, right behind me so I'm constantly moving back and forth to get what I need, how annoying.

Well that is really the updates so far...I'll try to give more later.

Book Report:

I gave up on reading Heart Sick, since I just had a hard time getting into it. Maybe later, it will remain on the list.

I have gotten:
Smart Mouth by Erin McCarthy
Sleeping with Beauty by Donna Kauffman
Thigh High by Christina Dodd and finally
Wild by Lori Foster

I still have over 13 pages of books I would like to read. So you will continuously be updated with my progress.

Here are your newest trivia questions:

My Latest Invention...

Ok to answer Jennifer's question - Milwaukee, Conway and San Diego.

Well going off of Carrie's Blog...Why my husband rocks

My husband rocks because his feet smell like feta cheese that has been sitting in a locked car on a 90 degree day.
My husband rocks because he will make dinner once a week just to be nice.
My husband rocks because even asleep he will play the trumpet, with his butt, just for me.
My husband rocks because he will make sure I get enough sleep after working all night even if he has to get up early.
My husband rocks because he will play gin with me all night no matter how tired he is.
My husband rocks because his ears produce the most wax you have ever seen in your life...seriously.
My husband rocks because he will say I love you when I leave no matter if I'm going to the store for milk or if I'm going to Greece for vacation with my Mom.
My husband rocks because he's the only one who can put up with my craziness without it bothering him.
My husband rocks because even though he can't sing he tries.
My husband rocks because he will mow the lawn and shovel snow no matter if it's 80 above or below because he doesn't want me to do it.

It's taken me a long time to actually say some of those things, since a few months ago I thought we were going to get divorced but I came to realize that I was listening to other people and not myself or Jacob, so I'm committed to focusing on us for the time being.

I've had a pretty good week. Jake and I have been doing really well and things seem to be getting better over all.

Tomorrow I'm going to try and clean the garage and our bedroom, seriously I think Rogan is shedding Chihuahua's now, so a full house sweep job is certainly needed.

So I will still accept brainstumpers from everyone but I will provide some questions here as well.

Movie - In honor of Carrie's Romantic Comedy preference...

In the movie The Wedding Planner, we have Jennifer Lopez as the wedding planner. Who is the couple (actors and characters) that she is working for but ultimately falls for the groom?

In the movie 27 Dresses, what song do they sing in the bar after the car gets stuck in the ditch?
Name and artist please.

In the movie Two Weeks Notice, George and Lucy are at a party, it is a costume party, what are they all dressed as?

Hope you have fun!

So anyway things are getting better with me and Jake and for that I'm very happy. Today he made dinner for us and then helped me with the dishes. I think he is finally getting that its a partnership. Just wish we would have a few more sheet sessions. Oh well baby steps.

I'm at work again. Of course.

It was so slow last night that in a 10 hour shift I think I only got like 7 calls. Hopefully I get one or two more tonight. But lets not have them be crappy calls.

I still feel crampy on my right side. I wonder if I'm getting PMS already. Seems a bit early.

Well I really don't have much going on so I'll sign off. Today I will omit the questions...it is your turn to try and stump me.

Welcome Back...

Here are the answers from the last go round of questions...

Movie-National Lampoon's Vegas Vacation
Bonus-Wayne Newton

TV-I would be in the Addams Family.

Why Friends? Seriously I think I would want to strangle Monica...really anyone that anal about cleaning should be committed for observation. Phoebe would really annoy me and so would Rachel since she doesn't seem very bright. Ross is the biggest geek there is and Joey well he's pretty and all but I think he's kinda dumb too. Chandler is probably the only one I would get along with.

What is wrong with Egon? He's smart and seems dependable, not like that man whore Peter.

Well here it is Thursday. I've had a bit of a weird week. Jake and Rich had issues that seemed to bring me into the middle of it. They have now kissed and made up. Jake wants to play softball now, funny two months ago he didn't but he just found out that Chris a guy he used to work with (and lets admit it, one that neither of us really likes) has a team but never asked us if we wanted to join. Well I'm not crying over it but Jake is. Anyway he might play over at the Moore Barn on Mondays instead. We'll see what happens.

I've been asked to play Volleyball on Tuesdays, I mentioned I suck at any sport except for maybe competitive desk sitting. But we'll see what happens there. I'm sure if I play my lovely nephews will be more than happy to tell me what I'm doing wrong. Gotta love them!

So I'm at work. I've had 1 call for the past 3 hours and 2 hang ups. Yip Pee.

Plus my bladder has shrunk to the size of a peanut, I'm peeing every hour it seems like and I'm not drinking any more than usual. I feel kinda crampy on the right side, wonder if I'm pmsing.

I need some new pictures at my desk...Jennifer email me some or something!

Well that is the up to the moment and in depth news.

Oh wait I forgot the book report. I am now on the last 4 books I borrowed from the library. I'm still working on Heart Sick by Chelsea Cain, but I am also reading: Too Wilde to Tame by Janelle Denison, You've Got Male by Elizabeth Beverly and Free Fall by Fern Michaels (this is the last book in the Sisterhood series).

I have 13 pages of books I still want to read so I'll be able to update you all on many more books to come.

So I've finished Ain't Myth Behaving. It had two stories in it and it was very good. I would recommend that to anyone.

I'm still working on the rest. I'm almost done with See Jane Score by Rachel Gibson. It too is good, especially since it involves hockey players. Aren't they the yummiest?

Today I did about 4 loads of laundry, it never seems to end and I absolutely hate doing laundry. So it was nice that I got some done.

Really I don't have much in my life right now. I told my Mom today that if she and my Dad needed help at the condo this summer to let me know. I'm looking to make some extra money. If Jacob and I can't save enough over the summer we won't be able to go to Wisconsin Dells. So I'm trying to do as much as I can to earn some extra cash.

Well really that is all I have...

New Questions:

So I went for a bike ride on Monday with my brother. We went to the public library and I was able to get 7 books. On Tuesday I read one (completely from the beginning to the end) and now I have 6 more to read. So my butt hurt for like 3 days after that as well. I mean, I know I have a badonkadonk but really it must not be in the right places.

Wednesday my friend Rich needed me to take him to his class so I went to the library again. I got three more books, two by Fern Michaels and one by Chelsea Cain. So that afternoon after I got home, I was working on laundry and just chilling and my phone rings. It was Rich and he was just bored I think so we were talking for like an hour. I'm going to miss him when he has to go to jail. But we'll see what happens when he goes to court.

He makes me laugh and I don't do that very much, especially right now. I'm still in a bit of a funk but I'll work through it.

Current books I'm reading are: Ain't Myth Behaving by Katie MacAlister; See Jane Score by Rachel Gibson; Lethal Justice by Fern Michaels; and Heartsick by Chelsea Cain.

I think Jennifer would like the Chelsea Cain books since it is a story about a female serial killer. I will let you know how they are when I read them. I like Ain't Myth Behaving...I'm almost done with that one.

So here are the new questions:

Movie -

"That's just dandy, I've got a bowl of chocolate pudding in my underpants!"

What movie, actor and character.

TV -

What are the names of the people who live in the Tanner house in the sitcom "Full House"

So really I'm still in a funk and really don't want to be here right now.

I tried to get a little something before going to work, and it didn't happen, he was more interested in going fishing with Lance than having sex with me. I seriously wonder if he might be gay?

I finish Playing with Fire - it was okay. I probably will read more by that author but hopefully the books will progress faster than this one did.

Here are the questions:

Movie -

"No Mom the town already has one!"

Name the two characters in this scene and their real names.

So it is technically Sunday morning. My Mom's birthday. I never know what to get her so I bought her an orchid plant. She said she loved it and always wanted one. So I'm glad I got it for her, I hope it lasts for a while. She is usually pretty good with keeping plants alive.

Well last night at work I found out that my friend Kirsten is transferring to another department. So I'll never see her again. It really put me in a funk and I still feel pretty low. I may have to call my doctor and see about getting back on the Prozac. Also I need some meds for my high blood pressure.

I am currently in my fertile period. I told Jacob today that I don't think he is really interested in trying for a baby so after this month if I don't get pregnant I'm not trying any longer. I don't think I should have to keep taking this medicine if he isn't going to step up to the plate and do his share of the baby making. It bothers me but my only other option is to have an affair to get a baby. And that isn't really an option.

I have finished the book Confessions of a Lingerie Addict, It had potential but ultimately it wasn't very good. I wish Nick didn't go back to her in the end, she was kinda a whiner.

I'm still working on the other two books: Playing with Fire and Playing for Pizza. I will provide my comments after I finish them.

So since I'm in a bit of a funk, I'll just post my questions and let you all get to it.

Movie:

"I'm too blonde?"

What movie, character and actress?

Bonus: What was happening in this scene?

TV:

What sitcom does Brad Paisley's wife appear on?

Bonus: What is her sister and brothers name on this sitcom?

Finally a new section:
Shag, Marry, Push

Adam West, Charlton Heston and John Wayne

Have fun!

***
So when I woke up today, I was praying that it was 2 in the afternoon, so I just layed there for awhile before taking off the sleep mask and checking the time, it was only 12.40. So I was able to fall back asleep until about 2. Then I had a meeting at work from 4-5 and it was actually nice since Jolene didn't show up. She's a nice girl but at this meeting she takes over the conversations and you can't get a word in EVER!

So then I went home, talked to my sister for 45 minutes (after she figured out how to work the elevator) and then Jacob and I went to eat at the KFC. Now you would think that they would have the C part on their buffet. But no! Everytime Jacob went up there they didn't have any C or any of their biscuits. Now seriously WTF is that about?

Well anyway, we went home and then I had to go to work, so here I am and I really just hate working the overnight. But it is only through May and then very rarely. They had better realize that they need to start hiring more people, for 3rd shift!

Well that is really all I have about my day. I know I'm kinda lame lately since the Turd Monkey can't go out and that is really where I got most of my material from.

Questions:

Movie: "It's concentrated flatulence, I collected it while you were sleeping. Strong stuff."

What movie, who are the two actors in this scene (even though only 1 is speaking)

Bonus: What is the relationship between these two characters?

TV: What sitcom features the following characters: Oliver Wendell Douglas, Lisa, Uncle Joe, Sam Drucker, Farmhand Eb and Arnold?

Bonus: What other two sitcoms were created by the same person?

Music: Can you name the band who sings "Pretty in Pink"

Bonus: What are the 3 "main" characters in the movie of the same name?

Hopefully a bit more difficult for some of you. Good Luck!

Current Book(s) I am Reading: Confessions of a Lingerie Addict by Jennifer Ashley, Playing with Fire by Katie MacAlister and Playing for Pizza by John Grisham.

Thursday Night's all right for me

So it's been a bit crazy this week for me. On Monday I didn't do anything. I think I helped Jacob in the yard, but I could be wrong.

I know on Tuesday I did help in the yard, then we went up to Wausau for his Doctor's appointment. He ticked me off on the way home though so I didn't speak to him for the rest of the night. So I was able to finish my book. The Charlemagne Pursuit by Steve Berry. I highly recommend it. Any of his books are good, except maybe the Third Secret, it was a little too convenient.

On Wednesday I had to take Jacob to the bank then I had a meeting at work. So he got the rest of the yard raked and picked up and then he even cleaned out the gutters. I was happy but really more shocked and surprised than anything. We then went to Walmart to get just a minor (less than $30) amount of groceries. They had double packs of Hamburger Helper for $2 a box. That is a great deal.

So then we went home and played Gin. Now the last few times we've played I've been winning, well he was winning and seriously I don't care who wins or loses but I hate, absolutely HATE a sore loser. Cry Baby Jacob was winning by over 100 points when I got gin on one hand. He had really nothing so I would have gotten a huge amount of points, but he threw a hissy fit and I decided I was done playing. He then said no lets finish the game. I said no thanks, I'm not going to play when you act like that.

So he fell asleep on the couch and I watched TV. I think Beauty Shop was on last night with Queen Latifah. I enjoyed it as much as I could with commercials and all. Then something was being recorded and I decided it was time for bed. So my favorite thing in the whole world is to wake Jacob up so I did. I told him, I'm going to bed and he should probably do that too.

Anyway that is really my week so far. I got paid today, but after paying bills and getting the few things at the store I needed, I have less than $100 left for the next two weeks.

Oh well.

Saturday my friend Brenda and I are going to the Cultural Festival. I enjoyed it last year, but I'm sure I'll be tired this year since I have to work until 7 in the morning. We'll see what happens I guess.

Ok, now, since Jennifer almost died realizing that I wasn't doing the questions anymore, I suppose I'll have to do them for her sake, I would hate to think that I caused her demise.

Movie Trivia #44

"What's the matter Harry, some little filly break your heart?"

Character - Fat Bastard
Bonus - Mini Me

Trivia - 23
I can't name them either.

Points, Jennifer - 25

So anyway here I am at work. I'm really tired and I guess I'm just resigned to the fact that my husband Jacob is a douche. He got home today and I asked him "Want to cuddle?" He gave me this look like I was either A-an idiot B-on crack C-both a and b. Plus he had this look of distaste on his face like even the idea was revolting.

So now I'm not wearing my wedding rings because I was genuinely upset and hurt about it. I mean it's not like he is a romantic person, it's not like he usually tries to be. But seriously is the thought of being near me that heinous? I guess if I worked at the bowling alley he would find me more attractive. Enough said on that.

So I'm pretty low right now and I told my friend Rich that he should find Jake a girlfriend. He said No. Fine, I'll do it myself. I'm sick of both of those guys right now anyway.

I will stop whining now.

I won't be posting anymore questions. I'm going to try to figure out another kitschy thing to add to my blog.

Current book I'm reading - The Charlemagne Pursuit

Rainy Day Blues

So the sun did come out on Friday, and boy it was out with a vengeance. I think it got to 86 degrees today. I was very warm.

Well anyway here are the answers for yesterday.

Movie - Wizard of Oz
Character - Dorothy
Shoes - Black

Miscellaneous - Carmen Sandiego

So Jennifer gets full 500 points for all correct answers. What is she at now anyway? I don't know, I lost track a few posts ago.

So here's a day in the life of Amy.

Friday April 24, I woke up at 7.30 with Jacob's alarm. I hate, absolutely hate, that beeping alarm, mine is set for the radio. So I wake up and I have to wake him up to shut the damn thing off. I mean it's not more than 2 feet from his head and he can't hear that? So of course he keeps me awake until he leaves at around 845. Since he can't drive he has to depend on a friend of his to pick him up for work. Well Lance is a great guy but he apparently doesn't know what a clock is, so he is usually cutting it close for work.

So I put my sleep mask on, because now it is getting brighter out and I need it plenty dark to sleep. I go back to sleep and wake up again at 12.20. I know I have to get up because I had to call the bank and then the doctor's office. So I drag my big white butt out of bed and the dogs even look at me like "Why is she up already?" So I go into the kitchen where the phone is and make my two calls. I get an appointment for Friday (today, whatever) with Dr. Bergin.

I did the dishes, because lets face it, if I don't do them, pretty soon we won't have any left. My sister is texting me and my friend Lisa is texting me. I do shopping for Lisa since she can't get around too well. Well she wants me to go when I have time, so I figure I could probably do it today since I only have my Doctor's appointment and then work to get to.

So finally I have to get dressed. I am in the bathroom getting cleaned up when my phone starts ringing yet again. This time, its the Turd Monkey. He has to blow today and asked if I could take him. I really wasn't sure if I could since I had things to do. I said back to him that I wasn't sure since I had a doctor appointment at 4.20 and I know he usually goes around that time. Well he said "Shit" so I said back, if you want to chill while I'm at the doctor I could take him. He said okay.

So now it's 2 and I run down to my parents house and my mom is home, where is she in the house you might ask, well she's on the computer, I swear ever since she started getting into that you need an appointment to get on it or even talk to her. She texting Jennifer and she surfing Ebay, I don't know if I would recognize her any more without that computer in front of her. And she's still in her jammies. Well I drop off the last piece of white cake I had, since lets face it I really don't need it. And then I have to run since my day is busy.

I go to Lisa's and pick up the list and money, rush to the bank to cash the check and then run and pick up her stuff. Luckily it wasn't much, only two stops and they were right by the bank. Well I don't have time to drop it off before picking up turd monkey so I go get him.

He immediately starts bitching about his sister in law Shelly. Apparently she's decided to throw him out and he has 1 month to move. What a crotch monkey she is. Well anyway, I take him downtown to blow and then we have to rush over to Aspirus to see the doctor. I asked him if he wanted to stay in the car or come in with me. (I needed to know so I could close the windows or leave them open.) He decided to stay in the car. Well it took forever in the doctors office and I knew going in that he was going to put me on another medication. And sure enough he did.

So I gotta pick that stuff up tomorrow. Yippee! I hope it doesn't make me sick.

Well I race back over to Lisa's since I have to drop her stuff off and then I needed to drop the Monkey back at his brother's place. I get home at 5.29 and then I have to leave for work. I picked up a jacket and a few books and left.

Now here I sit, it's been storming all night and we lost power once. It is raining right now actually. It has also been really slow. Not that I'm complaining but I do feel I need to mention it.

So now the new questions:

Movie Quote #9087

"Get in my belly."

What movie, Who said it (actor and character).

Bonus - Who was this character speaking to/about?

Trivia #88

How many flavors are in Dr. Pepper?

Can you name any of them?

Later all!

The Sun will come out Tomorrow (at least it better)

Another rainy day, I'm up before noon at already at work. But lets get to the point distributions shall we?

Jennifer has earned another 40 points. Here are the correct answers...

Movie-National Lampoon's European Vacation
Character - Clark W. Griswold
Actor - Chevy Chase
Bonus-England France Germany and Italy

Better Myself - Got my hair highlighted, nails done, eyebrows waxed, going to gym, accessorizing. Nice to the neighbors isn't for me and I don't do that.

Perfume - Calvin Klein Euphoria, BTW in the summer I wear Provocative.

Favorite - Champs Elysee's.

So back to what my life is like, seriously it is not something you're going to want to watch as a mini series or even as a reality show. I'm sure at the end of the first episode, you'd want ME to be voted off. Seriously.

So yesterday I had to get up really early to help take Turd Monkey to his class. I then got a bit ticked at him, because this is what happened. We had an hour to kill so we went to Southpoint for coffee (amazing for a scary place they have great coffee) we're sitting there chatting and I'm texting my sister as well. Then he gets a call on his cell, from the ringtone, I know its Whori. So he answers it.

Originally his schedule was as follows 10-11am Class, 12.15-12.30 Counselor, 2pm Hair Cut.

So we're at Southpoint and Whori calls, I don't know what was said, I was trying to ignore the conversation and really what could I get out of "yeah" "uh huh" "okay" "sure" "no problem" "I can do that". Then he hangs up and says I wonder if I could get in earlier than 2 for my haircut. He calls the guy and is told that he can get in right away. So we go down the street for that. Then we have to race back to the sheriff's department so he can meet with his counselor.

Okay so here is my pissy attitude. If Whori and Turd Monkey aren't in a "relationship" and are "just friends" as I've been told repeatedly, why is it that he will ALWAYS change his schedule to accommodate her? It never fails. I think she has some sort of psychotic bitch telepathy and knows when he is out and about with out her and she has to call and shake his plans up. And as if she were a bitch in heat, he goes and does what she wants.

I swear the very next time, I know she is drinking and I know where she is, I will call the police. She isn't 21 yet and I have no problem screwing her life up.

There I have vented.

Today's questions will be easy.

Movie Quote #807

"I don't think we're in Kansas anymore."

What movie and character.

Bonus - What color are this characters shoes at the beginning of the movie when she arrives in Munchkinland?

Miscellaneous Trivia #32

Finish the line "Where in the world is __________?"
hint 2 words

I really can't think of anything else to add to the questions...let me know if you would like me to start a particular subject.

Here I am again, on my knees...

Isn't that the way the song goes? Oh well, it fits.

So the point distribution is as follows:

Jennifer has earned 100 points.

The answers are as follows:

Movie - The Big Lebowski
Actor - Jeff Bridges

Music-Angels Eyes
Bonus - Roadhouse

Beverage-Coors Light is what I was looking for but I did accept Tequila straight.

Yes, I did know Jeff Healy died.

So I'm sitting here a bit ticked of actually. I feel like I'm being used, by the Turd Monkey. I have to drive his ass around and all I get is grief for it. Well next week I'm not doing it, I don't care if I have to make up explosive diarrhea or something just as disgusting. Besides everytime I hang with him, he gets either a text or a call from Whori. It just annoys me since she is just a waste of hair and plasma. But anyway.

So I guess my nephew didn't win his game last night, I suppose he was upset but that happens. Look at us when we play softball, we suck but we have fun at it. Isn't that the important thing?

Well I made chili last night and it was good, I'm fixing to go home and have a bowl soon. But I need to get this posted so that my loyal readers have something to do when they aren't working...Jennifer.

I have no fun stories to share with anyone, give me some topics to discuss. A morning in the life of Amy...Sitting in traffic behind blue haired women...Plucking nose hairs, how it really feels? Help me I'm running out of ideas.

So here are your questions...

Movie Quote #905

"Big Ben kids, Parliament."

What movie and what character and actor said this line.

Bonus - What were the countries visited in this movie?

Jennifer is slacking with her answers but she did earn more points...lets say 35

Movie - Real Genius
Character - Chris Knight
School - Pacific Tech

Dresses - Southern Belle-hoop skirts, gloves, straw hats, parasols and baskets for flowers. I can't imagine why nobody would do this.

So anyway today is Turd Monkey's Birthday. He is now 35 years old. I know old right? But since I am the nicest person in the world, I am making him dinner and a cake. He will be joining Jacob and I tonight after 5pm. So if you want to wish him a happy birthday, please feel free to call my house tonight after 5.

Not much has been going on, I'm still pretty tired and I'm waiting for either day 35 or for my period to start. Keep your fingers crossed I guess.

What movie has a character named "The Dude"?

Who is the "The Dude"?

Okay still no word from people but I refuse to keep these questions going...

Movie - Empire Strikes Back

Miscellaneous -
Freddy Krueger - Nightmare on Elm Street
Orcas, Dragons, Bats


So I slept all day today. From 8am to 4pm. I'm still tired but at least I'm not dragging ass. I got up and Jacob tells me that Turd Monkey needs me to take him to blow. I don't have time for this crap I have to work at 6pm. Well there was no message on my phone so Jacob calls him back and finds out he has another ride. Good, especially after the dream yesterday.

I'm seriously thinking of doing the 7 weeks for $99 at Adventure 212. Its a fitness center and I've been going with Lisa a couple of times. It's okay if you have someone to do it with. However she likes to go so early in the morning. Who is really up at 10am!?!?!

My friend Kirsten is encouraging me to keep writing this story I started. I have 40 pages already and I have the story in my head but can't seem to get it on paper. Does that happen to anyone else?

I have a Ziggy cartoon on my desk that I thought was funny. Ziggy is at an airline and the agent is talking to him about his luggage. She says..."Your luggage went to North Korea...and the superhero underwear in it is ILLEGAL there. You're in BIG trouble." I giggled.

So what else to say?

I guess I'll hand out the new questions:

Have fun!

Updated Blog Entry #1

Good morning all my readers. (I always feel like Dear Abby when I say stuff with READERS in it).

Since I didn't get any posts from my questions, they will remain active for another day.

So again I'm at work and super tired. I got perhaps 6 hours of sleep. I know that seems adequate but really it isn't for me. I don't function well with little sleep. Even though I seem to be getting better at it.

Saturday morning I got home a little after 7am. Jacob had to go to Madison today to help his parents move furniture. So I was only able to rest for about 20 minutes before we had to get going. We picked up Rich and apparently Whori spent the night. I wish he wouldn't lie to me about his relationship with her. That pisses me off more than I can say.

But anyway, since Rich is on his 3rd OWI, he has to go in and blow 3 times a week. Randomly. Well he blew for the 3rd time on Thursday so he said he should be good for today. Well he called (apparently his intuition was working) and he had to blow today as well. He was pissed. Most of the way to Madison he was ranting and raving. I was ready to stuff Jacob's sock down his throat to shut him up.

Well we get to Madison just before 10 and I finally am able to get some sleep. I took a nap on my in-laws bed (very comfortable by the way) I woke up at 1.40 or so. Really! I can't get more sleep? So I get up and change and clean up. We eat a late lunch with Jacob's parents and then we head back to Stevens Point about 3.30. We get into town around 5 and Rich goes and blows. I get home at 5.30 and go back to sleep until 8 since I had to work tonight at 9. Oh for joy.

What is confusing is that I had a really weird dream about Rich the turd monkey. I just don't know how to interpret it and it was a bit shall we say intimate, but not sexual? Like I said, weird.

Well I'm at work, I'm all alone and I got sooooo pissed off at one of the team leads tonight. She is just worthless. She won't take a call, she tells me absolutely nothing about what she is doing. She left at midnight but was supposed to work until 2am. I found out from another agent that she had come in early. Well that would have been nice to know. Frigid cow.

So I really should get back to work but I am dawdling. Maybe I can leave an hour early tonight so I don't get overtime? I bet that won't happen.

Later all my fabulous Readers.

Another post from the coal mines...

Here we go...Jennifer is still in the lead she has earned herself another 100 points. Carrie has earned herself 20 points.

Movie Quote - A Fine Mess
Name - Turnip

True you put your jewelry on after lotions and perfume.

Ice cream - Chocolate
Where in Europe - Italy
Yes, he wants to be put on my insurance.

So now I'm sitting at work again, its been a bit busy but I've hung up on a client once and now an airline. Seriously just break my fingers and let me use my nose to type.

Now in the morning instead of sleeping all snuggly warm with my dogs in my bed, I have to drive my happy ass down to Madison since Jacob said he would help his parents move some furniture. Really? And you just remembered that you can't drive. Add to that we have to take the turd monkey with us. I'm sure Jacob will fall asleep so if he does I'm telling him to sit in the back and let Rich sit in front to help keep me awake. I will sleep the day in Madison. Oh for joy, I can't sleep well when we are there for any length of time anyway and now I have to since I work again tomorrow night. I ask you is this normal?

Well trivia is going on in Stevens Point, Michael plays for Team Thicko and they usually do pretty good. So I'm excited to see what place they are at the end. Midnight on Sunday/Monday and we'll see. I saw him today at my parents house and his bald head was sun burned...doesn't he realize he has no hair and needs to wear a hat or something?

I watched Harper's Island today. I was thinking that the annoying guy Cal was going to get hacked to death and was really hoping he would, but I guess he'll go another week. I wonder who the killer is. I know the show is trying to push it onto JD or even Shane but I am starting to think that the really killer or killers is Jimmy, Henry and possibly Trish's Dad. But I suspect the first two more than the last one at this time.

So I guess I better give out some questions and we'll see what happens with those.

Movie Quote -

"I love you."
"I know."
Name the movie, and the two characters involved.

Bonus points - Can you name the actors names as well?

Name two artists who have recorded the song "I want you to want me."
Bonus - Try not to sing this song in your head...you can't do it can you?

Miscellaneous Info...

I hate horror movies, I have a recurring nightmare from a certain horror character...Which one is it and what movies do they star in?

I love wolves, what other animal do I have a love for? Mythical creature? What animal do I hate?

Well I'm signing off now. If you want to find out the answers to these brain teasers stay tuned tomorrow for the answers.

I'm posting late, I know...

Okay so lets award points right away. Jennifer has earned another 120 points. She got the first two questions and bonus's correct.

Movie Mallrats

Music: Cyndi Lauper
Goonie: Mikey, Brand, Mouth, Data, Chunk, Andi and Stef.

Amy's fascination is with the country of Scotland the reason is I love a man in a kilt.
Capital of this country is Edinburgh.

Well I'm sitting here at work and I've been alone since about 2am. The minute the two other girls left me I got a medical reservation, a BMW call and then a call back for Handmark. Now I ask WTF is up with that crap?

Oh well I survived. I'm reading a book called "Like a Charm" it is very cute but now it is going a bit slow. I have two other books to read, James Patterson's "Roses are Red" and then Agatha Christie's "And then there were none" (I believe this is the inspiration behind Harper's Island).

I sure am tired tonight even after taking a caffeine pill I'm ready for a nap. I have to only make it till 6am when another person will finally come in. Even though JJ doesn't do much, it will be nice to have someone here.

So here are today's questions:

Movie Quote:

"This is my friend, Oscar."

Bonus points if you can give me the character's name.

Since I'm not really a Music trivia person I'm going to open this part to general information:

True or False: Should you put your jewelry on before or after you apply lotions and perfume?

Little known facts: Hint (these are questions that if you don't know the answer to them, would be a great conversation starter). Well maybe not all of them.

What is my favorite ice cream flavor?

Where would I like to take my next European trip to?

Why does my Dad want me to have him ruled incompetent?


Stay tuned for the answers and the next installment of questions.

Another day in the life of...

Ok so Jennifer has now gotten 180 more points for yesterdays questions, her grand total is 210.

So the answers are as follows:

The movie quote is from Without a Paddle and yes Jerry said it.

Steelheart is the band and the first two words are Angel Eyes.

My favorite author is Laurel K. Hamilton and she writes the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series.

I want to have 4 children and the names for a girl and boy are: Briar Rose and Noah Stephen.


Yesterday I went in the hot tub for about 30 minutes with Lisa. My hip is killing me and that made it feel slightly better. I then went home and started Jacob's laundry. He arrived home shortly after but then he had to go to the bowling alley. He got money back so I didn't care.

I was at home playing my game and Rich the turd monkey called. He wanted to talk with Jacob but he wasn't home so he said that he would buy me a few beers if I wanted to. Who is to refuse a free drink? I didn't.

So I went and picked him up and we went to Sandy's. It was pretty busy for a Wednesday so we had to sit really close to the door. We were chatting and then turd monkey wanted me to text someone and mess with them. Sorry Jennifer you were chosen. So I texted her and asked if she could come pick us up since we were "drunk". Unfortunately she said no and that I would have to walk. (Real nice, I am your only sister) Well the bar was clearing out and so we were going to go to 5 Star where Jacob was. He bowls with another friend of his named Red who is also friends with Rich.

So we were fixin' to leave the bar when these two old guys (like 55+) started kissing. Well then it was like I couldn't look away. They were practically sucking tongue right in the bar. They were embracing and kissing like two lovers...maybe they were?

Well Rich said we need to go now. So we left, what a dork.

Went to the bowling alley and were there for like an hour or two and then Jacob Rich and I left, I dropped Rich off but had to call my sister from his phone cuz she didn't believe me when I sent her his number. (Oh Ye of little faith) While I was talking to her, Rich was molesting Jacob in the car. Not sure if the scene from the bar got him all hot or what but I thought it was hilarious.

Well Jacob and I went home and played gin for awhile. I kicked his booty again.

Okay boys and girls here are todays questions:

Movie Quote #3

"That kid is back on the escalator again."

Bonus if you can name the director of this movie.

80's Music #3

What artist is featured in the movie, "The Goonies"?

Bonus if you can name the "Goonies" character names only.

Little Known Facts #3

Amy has a fascination with one of the British Isles. Which one is it and why?

Bonus if you know the capital of this country.

That's all we have today folks, hope you have a good time!

Round 2

Okay so Yesterday was a friggin' long ass day. I was going on 3 hours of sleep. And then I didn't get to bed until 11.30 that night.

I apologize for not getting questions posted yesterday, but I will post them today. Again, Jennifer is in the lead with 30 points.

So I'm really tired still today, and I'm wanting to just go back to bed but I have to do Jacob's laundry. I hate laundry...anyone enjoy doing it? If so I'll mail it to you to do and send back to me. Clean.

Well I'm sure I'll have no takers on that lovely offer.

Rich the turd monkey was supposed to go to court today to plead not guilty for his OWI. What an idiot he is too. He originally wanted me to drive him this morning, which I would have done. Yesterday he said he would let me know what time, etc etc etc. Well I didn't hear from him all day so I texted him, "I guess I'm not needed tomorrow?"

He called me and said he has a friend picking him up named Tom but that he didn't trust that Tom wouldn't forget about him. He said if he didn't show up by 815 he would text me. I said I need more than 5 minutes to get up and out the door. (He had to be at court by 9) "yeah I know. I'll text you at 805." Oh gee that would be just wonderful.

I didn't get a text this morning so I slept until noon. Lisa then made me get up and go into the hot tub at the fitness center. Now I need a nap.

And now the moment you've all been waiting for...

Movie Quote #2

"Where are we?"
"Corner of Bumfuck and You Got a Purty Mouth."

Again bonus points if you can give me character names. (First names only will be okay.)

So last night I was at work, and it was really very slow. Let me say it again, it was so slow that I almost fell asleep at work.

I got a text message from Turd Monkey yesterday night and he was asking me what I was doing this morning. I said I had to take Lisa to Wausau around 11. He says, what are you doing at 7? I'm thinking I work until 4 so I'm sure I'll be sleeping.

But instead I say - nothing why?

Can you take my brother to get his truck, he'll pay you.

Okay so stupid me thinks right away it is his brother Dan who he lives with. It wasn't it was another of his brothers, who I've named Bob since I don't know his name.

Okay so I agree to do it, just for the fact that I can get some money out of it. I get home at 4.11 this morning and go to sleep immediately. I work up at 7.08 since Rich said that 8 would be fine. So I get up and put some clothes on and go pick up Rich. We stop and get a coffee since I'm friggin' exhausted and then we head up to the north end of town.

First Rich has to blow and piss, why doesn't he just go before blowing...because he is a retard and he can't in case they want him to pee in a cup. Then we go pick up Bob at the Point Motel. Skeevey place that is. Anyway by 8.15 we're on our way to, wait for it...Blenker WI.

Insert annoying announcer type voice here...That's right contestants of the Amy's Taxi Show will be whisked off to wonderful, beautiful Blenker WI. Just north of Milladore in Wood County. Here you will find lush farm scenes and a gas station. Just to the west you will find the DeBoer company. Enjoy your time in Blenker.

Seriously I was starting to get a caffiene buzz by the time we got there. Which was probably a good thing. Anyway I got $20 out of it and it wasn't a big deal.

Then I got home, changed and cleaned up so I could take Lisa up to Wausau. She was supposed to have an MRI today but was not able to. So we spent time over lunch to help her relax. She is feeling much better now.

Okay kids, it's now time for yesterday's answers...

The movie is - To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything Julie Newmar

The 80's band is - Whitesnake

New Questions will be posted soon!

Here I go again...

I'm so tired today. It is Sunday night and I'll be at work for the next 10 hours of my life. I just want to sleep.

So I've been trying to get Jacob to learn how to kiss. He currently kisses like a chicken, peck peck here, peck peck there, here a peck there a peck everywhere a peck peck. But seriously, I've been trying to teach him. So when I was leaving for work tonight he came into the kitchen and gave me one of the best kisses he's ever given me. Now, I must admit now that kissing turns me on in a major way and of course my lady parts were screaming "Bedroom in T minus 10 seconds. Or at least the kitchen table." But it was not to be for 2 reasons.

1. Jacob needs to save his swimmers for the cup on Monday or Tuesday.

and

2. I had to get to work.

Life's a bitch sometimes. But it is Easter and I must say Happy Easter to all my peeps out there. I took my dogs for a walk today, but that is all we really did.

I'm really hungry right now but I'm broke as a joke so I'm not sure what I can do for food...I might have to write a check and hope it don't bounce. We'll see.

But anyways, I'm really not sure what to do with myself. We are a bit slow today (thank God) and I have yet to receive a phone call. Not that I'm really complaining.

I suppose I'll have to start a cute little thing like Jennifer does to make my ramblings a bit more interesting. Hmmm...

Happy Easter and all that jazz...

Happy Easter everyone!

I love Easter! I love going to church on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Unfortunately this year I didn't go since things were working against me at home but I do normally make it a habit of going.

I'm back at work tonight. It is kinda quiet now, it is about 2.30 in the AM. My dear friend Kirsten is working with me and we have been ranting about another co-worker of ours D-Con. She is just like her name implies, poison. She is a morale draining parasite. DCon had 45 minutes until the end of her shift and she chose NOT to make a call to an airline for one of our medical customers. This is her job and she blatantly chose to not do it and then had the gall to ask me or Kirsten to do it. We are not happy.

This is a common occurance with her and she just doesn't seem to get pulled on the carpet for her behaviour. What the fuck?

Well today I went to Appleton to drop off my friend Becky so she could go and see her husband in Maryland. I hope the flight went well for her. Then I came home and got about 5 hours of sleep before I had to be up again to meet Brenda for lunch. We were at the Wooden Chair for an hour and a half, all the time she was going on and on about a coworker of hers named Jilly Bean. This girl is a piece of work from what I've heard. Hopefully Brenda gets it resolved to her satisfaction.

So then I went home and Jacob said Turd Monkey called and wanted us to pick him up some cigarettes and drop them off at his house in Plover. Again I say WTF? Jacob agreed but of course I had to drive him. So we were sitting down there for an hour and we planned on originally taking the dogs for a walk. By the time we left Turd Monkey's, I've been roped into playing chauffer again for him on Tuesday. WTF?

Well we didn't get to take them for a walk, so Jacob took them later.

Jacob surprised me last night by getting home at 12.30am. I wasn't expecting him until tonight really so it was a nice surprise. However at first I thought he had learned his lessons (drinking and driving don't mix) which that one he has, and then the other one that he has to learn to treat me a little better, that one I'm not sure about.

So then I sit here and think, is it really going to get better? God I really do hope so. I really do. He still has his year and we'll see what happens during it I guess. I haven't forgotten it and I'm hoping he hasn't. I will however try not to find fault with everything.

Well I hope you all have a very happy Easter and I'll post more later!

Friday - The end of a long week

Well I went out on Wednesday, I still wasn't feeling great but I knew I couldn't cancel. Kirsten's friend Kim joined us for dinner which was nice. We had a margarita with dinner. Then we went to Sandy's bar and Luke and Rich joined us. Luke is super quiet and he said all of like six words the whole night but he isn't too bad.

Rich on the other had is a retard. He has gotten another name now, Baby Wipe.

I refuse to introduce him to any more of my friends since he usually is a dick. Not sure WTF is wrong with him, but then Whori had to call him. He luckily moved away from the table to take the call. I really have to say that I have no feelings for that girl what so ever. He thinks I hate her but honestly, I have more important things to do with my time than have feelings for her. So I choose not to. And if you ask anyone, that is the worst thing I could say about someone is that I have no feelings for them. If you haven't heard the reasoning for that, ask me sometime and I'll be happy to share.

Well I had two beers at the bar, before I even said I did. I really just wanted a coke, but Ant Shit Baby Wipe Turd Monkey ordered before I could say anything cuz I was on the phone with Kirsten. So we made it an early night also, I was home by midnight. I had a nice time and I really love them all for trying to keep me busy when I would have just stayed home all week in my own misery and self pity.

But anyway, I did stay home yesterday, I didn't do anything which was stupid so today I'm doing laundry and I'll do the dishes later as well.

I really miss Jacob. I left a crying miss you message on his cell phone last night, knowing he wouldn't get it until this morning. Even typing this I'm tearing up. I never want to have to go through this again. EVER!

I go back to work tomorrow at 6pm. I don't want to since Jacob gets out at midnight but I do need to work. I could actually call in but really I need to work.

I am driving Becky to the airport tonight, she is going to Maryland (I think) to see her husband Curt who is in the Army. She just found out he will be going to Iraq in July or August until next May. I really hope he stays safe. I think that would be the hardest thing in the world to lose your husband like that. But if you marry a military man I guess you realize that is a possibility going in.

So my next is still slightly stiff on the left side, I've been trying to stretch it out but it doesn't seem to be working too well.

Anyway, I really didn't have much to say, I know my sister was going through withdrawals from my lack of blogging so this is mostly for her amusement. Oh well, it somewhat theraputic as well.

ENJOY!

Up to the moment news...

So my friends are great. I love them all dearly. Since this week is a bit hard for me (I started crying in the car today after talking with Jacob) they are all trying to keep me busy at night and make sure I am too busy to think about Jacob. Its nice but right now I'm trying to fight not crying.

I get to go out with my two very good friends Becky and Kirsten. We are going to dinner together and Kirsten's boyfriend Luke will be joining us. Then we will go and pick up Ant Shit (aka Turd Monkey, you know Rich) for a few beverages.

Last night I was so sick. I think the Chinese made me so sick. I had a fever, it was so bad I had to change into a pair of sweat pants, put my robe on, wrap an afghan around me and then crawl into bed. I stomach was so sick, that I was hoping we had Pepto, we did but the 1/8 of an inch that was in the bottle I don't think really helped. My head was also in pain. (It was the brain pain). So then, my friend Lisa texted me to go work out with her today, but I said I was so effing sick there was no way I was getting out of bed.

I got up at 1 this afternoon. As I was about to take a shower, my phone rang. Ant Shit was calling me to see if I could take him to go blow at 4.30 today. So just call me a taxi service. but he is also a very good friend, he is worried about how I am doing with out Jacob around. I tell him I'm fine, but is that really the truth since I'm about to break down crying again today? Yesterday I was fine. Damn female emotions. What the hell!

I plan to just drink water and maybe a coke or two tonight. We'll see what happens with that idea.

I guess my sister is sick too, maybe its something she ate too? Wish I could be with her and try to make her feel better but I am just not able to do that right now.

So my plan is to go to Arkansas in October, Milwaukee is the lowest to fly out of, and I could go for about a week. I looked to see if a one way flight was cheap, lowest I could find was $487. But a round trip flight is only $187. WTF is up with that? I may do a one way train trip too and then just drive home with the folks. We'll see what happens. I really want to be there for my nephew's birthday this year. I've never been there for Doc's and I know he would be really excited to see me. At least I hope. So please keep it on the down low and not spoil the surprise for him.

I'm running out of things to say so I will let my wonderful readers go on with their days.

Progress so far...

So here it is Tuesday already and I still haven't done 1 thing in my house besides dishes. I'm the laziest person in the world. There I said it and I fully admit and accept it. Yesterday I got my "julie" order. So I delivered mom's to her and then we looked at all the stuff I got. I went to Walmart and then I went home. Around 1030 last night my friend Kirsten texted me asking if I could bring the jewelry down to work. So I did, what else did I have to do?

I got home around midnight and then I went to sleep, apparently doing nothing is exhausting.

But I totally forgot, Sunday night I was in bed reading it was around 11.30 and I was just trying to relax. Then my phone rang. It was "I touch myself" which is the ring tone I assigned to Rich. You know, turd monkey.

He asked if I could pick him up he was walking home to Plover and was at McDill pond. Apparently Whori got pissed off at him when he told her that they weren't going to have a relationship again. She's still seeing that dork down in Illinois...yes she lives up to her name. So I picked him up and we went down to Sandy's for a beer. I didn't have much to say since I was still in a slump. This weekend wasn't a good one.

So we chatted and then I took him home. He said he wanted to meet my friends, Becky and Kirsten and I know they had off on Wednesday so I texted them and they were all for it.

So on Wednesday the turd monkey gets to meet my peeps (as mom would say). He better be on his best behaviour or I will kick his ass!

So I'm thinking of going down to Arkansas in October, just have to figure out the best times etc. I may have to fly down and back...we'll see.

So I guess that is all from me for today. My lovely brother is working on the softball size knot in my back. He is awesome!

It came upon a midnight clear....

So here I sit at work, I'm amazed that I can actually blog, since EVERYTHING is usually blocked.

Saturday was an awful day for me. I didn't think it would be. Jacob had to go into jail today to serve his 8 days. Do not pass go, do not collect $200. All week I knew it was coming and I was fine with it, actually truth be told, I was kinda looking forward to him being gone so I can do my own thing.

But when I got home from work this morning at 7am, Jacob was up and in the shower. I wandered around the house since I couldn't go to bed until I took him up there. I was starting to feel anxiety and fear about losing him.

So he got done with his shower and he exited the bathroom. I was in the hall picking up some dog hair, since Rogan routinely sheds chihuahua puppies in our house. Jacob came up to me and said, "Here I can't take this with me." He handed me his wedding ring. I took it and started to cry right away...almost like I am trying not to right now.

He held me and told me it would be okay, but how does he know it will be?

Well I got him to the jail and I was crying again, I'm just so scared. I tried to be "brave" for him but who are we kidding, I'm a wimp and we all know it. Or at least now you all do.

I gave him the last few pointers to try and make light of the situation. "Play nice with the other kids, give the teacher an apple, don't drop the soap, remember to sleep on your back, yell fire instead of rape, if you have a choice to be the catcher or pitcher, be the pitcher; Remember you are abstaining from all sexual releases so don't let anyone Dutch Rudder you"

After the pep talk, I went home, I called my sister and woke her up so I felt bad about that but I really just needed to talk to someone. Well I eventually got about 5 hours of sleep. Hurray! I get to go to work again...

So here I sit, still not feeling great but I'm here. I have plans for this week, I'm going to try (probably won't happen, don't get your hopes up) and clean and organize my house in 5 days. I'm not sure if I should just call in tomorrow since I really don't feel up to coming in, but we'll see what tomorrow brings.

Meanwhile, I'm emotional and on the verge of tears all night. How is that a good thing when I have to be on the phone?

Anyway, I'll sign off now, since I've said my piece and counted to three. (Anyone know what movie that line came out of?)

Now another fairy tale classic.

Once upon a time, there was princess named Amy. She worked in a magical place called Travel Guard. One night as she was picking her butt, the phone rang. It was the rudest man in the world. Dr. Arthur Frank from Drexel University. He was pleasant until Amy said she wasn't able to provide him the information he wanted. Unfortunately she didn't know where to locate it and he got mad and turned into a fire breathing dragon. This made Amy so upset she almost cried. But crying is something she couldn't do.

Luckily another princess named Jolene answered the phone the next time the evil man called, he was mean to her as well but Jolene is filled with goodness so she just told him that she would have another Prince or Princess call him back. She told Amy that it was okay and that she did what she could since they didn't have the correct training.

But the Princess Amy had already been changed, deep inside. She was no longer happy and care free. She was now bitter and slightly evil herself.

She now had a mission...to corrupt as many people as possible. Starting with her niece the Princess Landry. Unfortunately the Prince's Sam and Darrel had already noticed the evil, bratty ways that afflicted poor Princess Landry. Amy wouldn't have too much trouble converting her to complete evilness.

Amy swore on the unholy book of 4 Blondes that she would no longer be nice. She sent her loving sister who married a King in the land of Arkansas several photos of her transformation, unfortunately the Queen Jennifer didn't notice the evil glow reflecting her sisters eyes.

If you see the photo on the blog page you will see the evilness reflected there.

More to come as Amy's evil ways are brought forth...

So that is what really happened last night at work. I'm serious.

I went to a meeting at work today and it was really productive we have a few options that we plan to go forward with and I'm excited to see what happens. I will certainly keep you updated my loyal readers and please let me know if you see the red glow in that picture.

Today's update from the funny farm...

It is officially my weekend now. I got home from work at about 4.15 this morning. I read my book for about an hour or so and then turned off the light to go to sleep. Jacob woke me up at 7ish asking me if I could call the insurance and check on a prescription for him. I forgot as soon as put my head back down. Then at 9.09 my cell phone was ringing, it was him. Can you take me up to Wausau to see the dermatologist, Dr. Kumm, seriously try not to giggle. Ok, I'll set the alarm. I had to get up around 11 or so, so I could pick him up at 12.15.

We get to his doctor and I tell him to make sure Lefty and Poncho stay in his underwear. The first time we saw the doctor, Lefty was hanging out for the whole world to see. I almost hurt myself trying not to laugh. I think the intern who was observing almost hurt himself too. This time however, he didn't have to take his pants off since there was a woman in the room too, a nurse I hope.

This next week is going to suck. I work 9p-7a on Thursday thru Saturday and then 6p-4a on Sunday. However on Friday I need to be up around 11 so that I can get to Polito's by noon for a mini reunion from my 7 Habits training. I'm going to be tired. Then I have a meeting at work at 4pm, then I need to be back for my shift that night. Seriously, I don't know if I'll be able to stay awake that night during my shift.

So the newest update is that I'm seriously pissed off with Rich. As previously mentioned he and I hung out on Tuesday of last week.

Well he didn't make it to either the Jewelry or Julie party. To quote him, "I'm so sick right now, I'm trying to puke." He was supposed to have stayed at our house on Wednesday night as well, but that didn't happen.

So then on Thursday I'm at home, cleaning up the house, doing some laundry and my Dad is in the garage fixing the garage door opener. The phone rings, caller ID announces that it is the City of Stevens Point with a 346-prefix. I immediately thought it was the Sheriff's Department for Jacob. He has to go into jail on April 3rd for 8 days. That is his sentence for his 2nd DUI in November. I don't tell many people since I'm not happy about it, but it is what it is. So I answered the phone.

"Amy, I need $200."

"Who is this?" It wasn't Jacob.

"This is Rich. Can you come down with $200 and pick me up?"

"What did you do?"

"I got arrested. OWI. 3rd offense." My dad comes into the house and asks is it about Jacob. I said no, it was something else.

I'm pissed off.

He tells me that he went out Wednesday night and drove drunk, got arrested. However, Kori was at the Sheriff's department with his wallet, he would call me later. I still haven't gotten that call.

So I learn from Jacob that Kori and Rich hung out for a few hours on Wednesday night and then she went home. Rich was then hanging out with his friend Nick and he drove Nick's car. That is the story that Rich told Jacob.

Now here's what really happened. Rich was driving Kori's car. She is not 21 and she was drunk as well. (Really next time I learn she is in a bar drinking, I'm calling the police on her.) She thought it was a better idea to give him her keys than try driving herself. What a skank hole bitch, who I hope gets syphillis and dies alone in the jungle of Colombia.

Rich being a male, so therefore is an idiot, pulled into Kwik Trip. Where not 1, not 2 but 3 police cars were sitting. He spoke to them, (the same cop "Doug" from Tuesday night) and then got into the car and drove away. They followed.

He told Whori (Kori) that they weren't going to get pulled over and then two seconds later, he did.

So okay, I'm not pissed that he got arrested, because he's 34 and should know by now, right. I'm pissed that he lied to me. If you want me to bring you $200 at least tell me the fuckin' truth.

So I'm all pissed and then Jacob gets on my last nerve so I am in a bad mood when I went to work. Thank god Kirsten worked that night and she helped get me into a better mood. That girl can be a life saver sometimes.

All I can keep thinking is that I told him that he never has to apologize to me unless he pisses me off. He can start apologizing at anytime now.

Not sure if I mentioned this or not, but Rich asked me if I could help get Whori into AIG, where I work. That will never happen in this lifetime or the next because I can't stand her and I feel she is a poisonous tumor on the butt of humanity. Really go back to Illinois Whori. Jacob got pissed off at her the other day and called her on it. She later apologized to him, but Jacob still told Rich that it was uncalled for and if it happens again, he isn't going to put up with either of them again. I just want my CD back before he cuts ties with Rich.

So Rich hasn't spoken to me, and I'm not going to contact him first. Tomorrow I may see him, since I have to take Jacob downtown to do some paperwork for when he goes in on Saturday and Rich may go with us since he has to take a breathalizer test everyday. Oh for joy.

I'm sure I will have updates for tomorrow. Happy reading.

A great story for the whole family

Let me take you back to Tuesday afternoon...

I had gotten a voicemail from my friend Rich that he had left on Monday night. I was worried and concerned by the voicemail so I called and left him message to call me since I was concerned. Then I texted him after about an hour with no contact, he was fine he just got pissed off with his sister and needed to vent. Next time I told him, to call the house, I was still up.

Fast forward about 7 hours.

I'm at home in my jammies watching TV with Jacob and reading a book at the same time (Jacob was watching wrestling) when the phone rings. Caller ID announces that it is Rich (aka Turd Monkey). He talks to Jacob and then asks to talk to me. Since the TV was on and as loud as some jets taking off I went into the kitchen to talk with him. I could tell that he had already been drinking. He wanted to know if I wanted to go out for a beer. I said "Right now?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I guess." So I give the phone back to Jacob and tell him that I plan to go out with Rich. He tells Rich "I don't want her home at 3 in the morning." Apparently he promised that I would be home early.

So I go pick up Turd Monkey and we go to Sandy's Bar. We proceed to laugh at the 12 year old at the end of the bar who we had seen previously. This guy is really like 25 but really looks to be about 12. So of course add beer and I'm the life of the party right, well we were laughing and picking on this guy from afar and we had 4 beers all night.

So Rich says he needs to get cigarettes and then he wants to go to Southpoint for coffee and breakfast.

Picture it, Plover WI at 2.10am...

We pull into Kwik Trip since that is the only place open all night apparently, since they are open all night, of course the cops are there getting coffee and I'm sure a donut or two. Rich is drunk off his ass and can't walk a straight line by himself so I go into the store with him to get the cigarettes and monster drinks. We were trying to bypass the cops but since they took up residence at the check out we were pretty much screwed.

So I've got the drinks on the counter, I turn and ask him, "Do you need to pee?" Since it had been about 5 minutes since the last time he went it was a valid question.

"No, I'm good."

I turn back to get his cigarettes and pay for his crap, when out of the corner of my eye I see him approach the cops and start talking to them. Oh dear lord...

"Hi I'm Rich, I live just down the street. I've had two OWI's."

The cop introduced himself but I don't recall hearing his name, I did hear him say, I hope you aren't going to get a third OWI tonight. Turd Monkey said "No, I have a friend driving me."

I'm thinking shut up now, stupid. I walk him back outside and put him in the car. He tells me that the cop asked him too if he needed to pee. That is just wonderful...

So we go to Southpoint and get coffee. Of course the minute we sit down, "I've got to pee." We are in the farthest corner away from the Men's room. "Can you make it over there by yourself or do I need to walk with you?"

"No I should be okay."

So he of course knew two people on his way to the potty and when he gets back, we order. The waitress has seen us here many times and could probably recite his order by heart. So as we are sitting there he keeps lurching and grabbing the table so he won't fall.

"Do you want me to sit next to you so you don't fall?" I ask.

"No I'm good."

5 minutes later, "You need to move over here." So being the loving person I am, I move to sit next to him. I had to keep my hand on his shoulder the entire, let me repeat that ENTIRE time he was eating. He got alot on his shirt and pants but I'm not his laundress so I don't care really.

After 4 beers and 2 cups of coffee, now I have to pee. So I moved my chair next to him so if he falls over, it won't be onto the floor. I pee and get back, thank god he was still in his chair.

45 cups of coffee later (that might not be an accurate count) and he is still drunk as a skunk. Just not as tipsy as earlier. So here it is 3.15 in the morning and Jacob calls. "Where are you?"

"Southpoint trying to sober someone up."

Meanwhile Rich is saying I'm sorry, don't be mad at me, I still love you. To Jacob. Jacob says okay and I'll see you later.

So finally I get Rich out of the building and he's having a cigarette and I told him he has to finish that before getting into my car. So he's standing there swaying like a willow tree and telling me he's so drunk. Well duh, I would never have figured that one out Sherlock.

He then proceeds to tell me that he's only had 4 beers and hes this drunk. I said you had 4 with me, how many did you have before that. 18. So in total you had 22. "Really?"

I get him in the car and he asks me what time my "Julie" party is on Wednesday. I said my "Jewelry" party is at 6.30. He continues to call it a Julie party and then it becomes my birthday party. Who am I to try and correct a drunk man? So I'm driving him home and he asks me what happened tonight.

Seriously you can't remember 2 hours ago? So I tell him about the cops, who I then named Doug since he wanted the cops name. "Where did that happen?" We were just passing Kwik Trip and I said, "Right there." "When?" "2 hours ago."

"Oh. Did I get married?" "Did you want to be?"

I then proceeded to tell him about my old roommate, Smelly Kelly and how my cat, Thor wouldn't go near her after awhile. "Who's Thor?" "My cat." "Oh, Coco." "No my cat's name is Thor." "Who's Thor?" Really am I in an Abbott and Costello episode? For argument's sake I said that Coco the cat wouldn't go near Smelly Kelly after awhile. Oh, Ok.

Then he launches into a tirade about his "twat" sister in law and how she's being a major bitch, blah blah blah. I get him home and I ask, are you able to get downstairs? "Yeah I should be okay, I just hope I don't wake my brother." "Well let me know if you need anythng, I don't care what time it is. Okay?" "Ok."

He gets in the house and I go home. It is now 4.30am. Jacob was awake when I got home, but he wasn't too upset since I told him it wasn't my fault and he couldn't be mad at Rich either.

So here I sit laughing my butt off and I hope you enjoyed the story too.

Tuesday

So I had to go to the gyno today. Oh for joy, I hate it when I have to have that exam, but right now I guess it is required of me. He is going to up the dose on the clomid and I have to try and get Jacob in for an analysis. I'm sure you know which kind. So I guess we'll see what happens with that.

Then I got a voicemail, apparently from last night just after I had turned my phone off. So then I was concerned about that, I left him a message but I didn't hear back so I texted him. He apparently was drunk last night from the sound of his voice on the message. So I wonder if Whori the ex girlfriend (real name Kori) is the problem. I hope he kicks her to the curb and then lets me drive over her.

So I am preparing for my Lia Sophia party and I have to do laundry too. If anyone wants to order I would be happy to send the link to my consultant Becky.

I will post more after I find out what is going on with Rich so that everyone can be in the loop, I swear his life is like a soap opera, without commercials.

Saturday

So okay, I don't have much going on. I worked last night and was able to finish my book. But really there isn't much going on with me. I need something new to do or read that will keep my mind busy. Any suggestions?

Thursday March 19

Ok, so officially my life sucks.

Last night was really alot of fun. Becky and I went to Sandy's were I texted turd monkey to see if he would like to come out for a beer. Surprised that he responded I got a message that said, I will have to get a raincheck. So I said he sucked and he said he knew that. He never said that Kori was over and that he was hanging with her. I don't think he really wants me to know, what does that mean? Anyone have an answer?

So after Sandy's we went to Post Road Pub, there were more people there and some decent music playing. But like 5 minutes later, most people left, again WTF? So we played two games of pool and then we texted Vinnie who was at work, he said that we might have more fun downtown so we went to Buffy's. Yeah, not so much.

Buffy's had like 8 people in it. And no music playing at all. I guess we just planned to go out on the wrong night. Springbreak in a college town sucks when you want to have fun.

But she and I chatted and we told each other our stories all night and only towards the end did we talk about work at all. It was great. The movie was hilarious as well, I highly recommend it to anyone wanting a funny movie to watch. But be warned, it is a chick flick and we really don't talk that way up here. You betcha!

So tonight I work 9p-7a and I hate that shift. I'm usually all alone after 2am until 7am. So it sucks! Oh well, I'm sure I'll survive it. Maybe.

Well that is really all I have for now. I'll try to write more tomorrow.
