Well, I've been pretty lazy when it comes to updating this thing. It's because almost everyone on my friend's list here has moved to livejournal and the fact that having to update twice all the time is getting old. So this will probably be my last post here. Android_71, if you're interested in getting a livejournal, send me an email, and I'll get you a code to join. Anyone else who's been reading this thing can just click here to continue following me and my silliness. ^__^ It's been real.

10:35 am - FUCK!!!!!
|
There must be forces working against me. What little bit I had written of chapter 26 is gone!! I had it on a disk so I could go back and forth between writing on hubby's laptop and using my computer, but didn't save a copy on either computer. The disk is dead!! 5 pages of the most difficult crap I've ever written are gone! I have what I wrote this morning in my notebook and the basic outline of the chapter, nothing more. I'm pretty much back to where I was 4 months ago. I am just not meant to finish this freaking thing.

Gah, the shock is too great.

10:14 am - me and my absent mindedness...
|
Well, it's been interesting to say the least. Mom had planned on flying up to see her dad this weekend since she had Saturday off for once. (Don't work for the post office unless you actually LIKE having no free time.) Well, it turns out he went into the hospital and had to have bypass surgery. Now this is where it gets weird. He went to the hospital because he's been having.... erm lots of diarrhea. >.< Sorry everybody. Anyway, they couldn't figure out what was wrong with him so pretty much ran every test there is. That's when they discovered that one of his arteries was 85% blocked and another one was 90% blocked! O_o How this man did not have a heart attack is beyond me.
Anyway, the surgery went well and he's fine, but mom left this morning instead of tomorrow night to spend a little extra time with him. I drove her to the airport this morning. Tons of fun. Managed to get my first speeding ticket ever! >.< This is what happens when you're half asleep, miss your turn, and end up not noticing you're in a school zone. I guess I shouldn't complain, because if it hadn't been for that U-turn, I'd have been going a lot faster than I was. *sigh* Yes, I'm a compulsive speed freak. I'm guess I'm lucky I made it as long as I have without getting a ticket. This is my 4th or 5th time to be pulled over but the first time I got a ticket. *shrugs* Oh yeah, my license is expired, too! The officer (a cute asian guy ^__^) either didn't notice or chose to ignore it. Yay! I can deal with defensive driving, but I don't want to have to pay a fine! At least I assume it's a fine, I don't even know.
So yeah, that's how my morning went. The worst part about it is that I got pulled over in Houston. When I have to go to court next month, I'll have to go to the Harris county courthouse which is somewhere in downtown houston. >.

2:41 pm - nothin' but testosterone
|
Well, I got my ultrasound today and found out I'm having another boy. I already have 2 boys! I'm going to be so outnumbered! *cries*
Oh well. I really don't mind, but I think everyone in my family and my husband's just already made up their minds that this was going to be a girl. Why? How the hell should I know??!! I already have 2 boys. My hubby's only sibling is a brother who has 2 boys. Apparently this family does NOT have girls. The way I look at, everyone should have just expected this to be a boy, but of course, everyone else is not me. *shrugs* It'll probably be easier this way, anyway. Could you imagine being a girl with 2 older brothers? O.o And hey, all these clothes that the kids keep outgrowing before they ever wear can just get passed down to the next one again. ^__^

It's been a really weird week. I think I went on a hormonal rampage or something, bitching at everyone, getting irately pissed over the smallest things, then crying over nothing. I was actually crying from watching Charmed last night! Anyway, I think I pretty much avoided everyone online last week, but if I was a bitch to anyone, I apologize. I've not quite been myself lately.
EDIT: Just forget about what I had posted here. It turns out nsbvegeta is alive and kicking! *hugs her til she turns blue before trying to strangle her* Don't scare me like that again!! ^__^ Anyway, just wanted to let everyone know that today is a great day!

9:12 am - schools are doomed
|
I just found this very disturbing link from an illustrator on deviantart. It seems that some idiots somewhere have decided that sheltering our kids from everything even remotely controversial in their eyes (and even some things that aren't) is the best way to educate the youth of today. I would go into more detail, but I would just get pissed off all over again and probably fill up several pages with my bitching. So, instead, just click the link below. It's a short article. All I can say is that my kids will know all about dinosaurs, racial issues, and anything else I think they need to know before they are unleashed upon the adult world even if I have to teach them myself.
They've lost their freaking minds.

9:49 am - And so it begins...
|
Shit, it's not even 10 and I already need a nap. *yawns* My 3 year old woke up at 1 this morning with a fever. We ended up sleeping the rest of the night in the recliner. >.< I really hate that freaking chair. I was really hoping he wouldn't catch this mess, but no such luck this time around. Jared got sick Saturday night and just went back to school today. *sigh* Although, watching him right now singing along with spongebob, you really couldn't tell there is anything wrong with him. *shrugs*
anyway, I'm going to sleep.

Anyone else ever had an overwhelming need to do something, but you're not exactly sure what? You want to draw, write, something, but you just can't decided what to do since it wasn't an urge to finish a specific project? So instead, you play around on the computer waiting for inspiration to hit you. You try to make a few icons, but it's not holding your attention. You play around online for a few hours and realize the motivation is now gone, and sadly, the best idea you came up with is to draw the saiyajin dressed up like the village people?
No? Oh well, I guess it's just me then. Took some quizzes. Whoopie, and as usual, I don't agree with them.

2:51 pm - farmer tan >.
|
Just got back from my son's soccer game. It rained almost all week, but today the sun came out. Yay... well, sortof. It was nice until it got fucking hot!! I'm not even sure how hot it was but ALL of us were cooking. The kids didn't want to play. They'd make it down the field once and were complaining about being tired. I don't blame them. I was sitting on my ass and I was tired! Sadly, they got their butts beaten terribly. We scored twice. I don't even know how many goals they got, but it was a lot.
Now thanks to the sun, I have the most horrific tan lines. >.< socks, shorts, t-shirt sleeves have all left their mark upon me. *whines* Yeah, I know, real important, right? Oh well. It's still annoying. Next time I'll bring the sun screen instead of the mosquito repellant.

My son has early dismissal from school today. My dumb ass didn't even realize the date until I saw PG's post. *slaps head* I'm not stupid, I promise, just a little unobservant sometimes. Anyway, just thought I'd share what happened to me that day 2 years ago.
I had to work. Woke up around 7:45 (central time) and had just sat down with my coffee and turned on the TV to see them talking about a plane that just hit one of the towers. No one knew what was going on yet. some sort of freak accident. Then saw the second plane hit live on freaking TV! I can't even describe what was going through my head at that moment. I think I was just numb, utter disbelief. The reporters were still trying to say it was an accident at that point. Yeah right. So, I got dressed, left, and on the way, I turned on the radio only to find out about the pentagon. I felt sick. I knew that this was it. WW3 had just started, and I was going to die at blockbuster (lots of oil refineries and industries where I live, not to mention NASA, so I'm assuming we'd be a prime target if there ever was a war.) Geez, I really am self-centered. *sigh*
Anyway, I'm glad I was just being overly paranoid at the time, but it still doesn't make the situation any less tragic. I was just glad it didn't get any worse. I was stuck at work for 8 hours. it was the only day the directv station wasn't on cartoon network when I was there. We did little more than watch TV, blankly staring at the images and speculation. I think it was probably late that night before the weight of the situation really hit me. Skipped class that night. I honestly don't know if they even had class or not, but I didn't bother with it. You want to know the most sickening thing about that day? Customers kept coming into the store complaining that there nothing on TV besides the fucking news!! It really squashed what little respect I had for the people that came in the store.

12:16 pm - It's gone!
|
I've been writing today. Yay me! Finished up one scene and now ready to move onto another one, but I can't find my notebook!! It's been so long since I've worked on this story, I've forgotten exactly how I planned to tackle this scene. *cries* I've looked everywhere! I really don't want to start from scratch, damn it!! I practically already had this scene written, and it was long!! *takes a deep breath and shakes head* I should've known this would happen. Every time my husband says he's going to 'clean', I end up not being able to find anything.
EDIT: I found it. *blush*

8:39 am - stupid crap, feel free to skip
|
It's so strange. I figured once my oldest started school, I would have all this time to clean, write, get things done that I've been putting off forever, but it really seems like I have almost no time to do anything. I've been trying to figure out what the deal is, and I've come to a few possible conclusions.
1. My grandmother - Apparently she has really been needing to get out of the house lately, because I think she calls me almost daily asking me to take her somewhere or to schedule a future time for me to take her somewhere. *sigh* I really don't mind taking her places, but it's gotten to the point where she is no longer asking anyone else. She lives with 3 other people. One of her best friends live next door to her, and yet I'm the only one she asks. I wouldn't mind except that whenever we plan to go to one place, it always turns into an all day affair. "Well, while we're out, would you mind if we stopped by _______?" Thursday, she actually got upset because I didn't have time to take her by the pharmacy. I had to pick up my kids!! Okay, end of rant on my grandma.
2. My husband - He recently started a new job, but the training portion of it was only part time, so he's been home a lot lately. This I don't mind, don't get me wrong. It's just that he can't stand to just sit around the house. He always wants to be doing something, and I guess he assumed that while he was at work all day, I just sat on my butt and did nothing. Sorry, but between taking Jared to and from school and soccer practice, washing clothes, cooking, attempting to clean, and chasing Neal around, there isn't much time left in the day. Anyway, he starts the full time stuff next week, so that one kinda fixes itself.
3. Kids and their schedules - School everyday, soccer practice twice a week, games on Saturdays, it really doesn't sound like much, but it seems like everytime I'm ready to work on something, it's time for me to pick up or take him somewhere else. I really have to give my mom some credit here. When we were younger, my sister and I played just about every sport offered to girls. There were lots of times I had to ride with friends to and from events or practices, and once I got my license, I was stuck taking my sister to a lot of her stuff. Most of the time, though, mom took us, so yay mom. How she did all that without complaint is still beyond me.
So anyway, that's what I've been up to lately. Those of you who've been through all this are probably rolling your eyes right about now. Oh well. I really thought though that things would be easier once one of them was in school. Now I'm dreading the time when my other one starts.
On a more cheerful note, Jared has his first soccer game this afternoon. Everyone in my family is quite excited about it. O.o Even my dad, who almost never went to any of my stuff, is coming to it. Strange. Anyway, it ought to be interesting. they've changed the rules for his age group to make things easier. The field is smaller, they only play half court, 3 on 3, no goalies. O.o Is it even soccer, you ask. Well, as much as it can be for 5 and 6 year olds, I guess. It ought to be interesting either way. Their uniforms are white. WTF!! What genius decided that little kids playing in the mud should wear white?? Oh well. Here's something else that's rather funny. The mudbugz, my son's team (and yes it is spelt like that), will be playing the thunderbears today. O_O Who came up with these team names??
Ha ha. Anyway, just thought you might get a few laughs from that. shutting up now.

Me and the man took the kids to see Spy Kids 3D today. I'm 25 years old, and this was my first time to see a 3d movie!! O_O I was such a deprived child. LOL Anyway, I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was pretty cool. I really can't stand the spy kids movies, but the 3d parts were neat. The kids enjoyed it of course. ^__^

7:14 pm - More shameless self-indulgence
|
Because my husband keeps taking over my computer, I haven't been online much to get that LJ code from Jady, but as it turns out, PG happened to email me today and offer me one. So everything has worked itself out. ^__^ Anywho, I had a bit of trouble finding a user name that hadn't been taken. Apparently there are a lot more people on LJ than Blurty. O_o So I am now known as na_no_nai which means nameless. XD In case anyone wants to check it out:

Bah, who am I kidding? No one cares. *shrugs* Oh well.
