Here is your horoscope
for Wednesday, May 7:

Travel and big moves aren't optimal for you right now, though their time will come, of course. If you're locked in to something big, just keep your eyes open and expect the unexpected.


Ahh, they have heard of my car. :p

Diet Week 18............... [07 May 2008|02:23am]
[ mood | pissed off ]

It has been a couple of weeks now and I have failed miserably.
I have reverted to all my old habits. Eat, eat, eat........

One of my nieces is getting married in July and that is also my mom and dad's 50th wedding anniversary. I am also hoping to go to Las Vegas in September. Shouldn't all of that be enough to make me want to lose some weight. To say nothing of needing to lose the weight for health reasons.
Now what from that list isn't enough to make me stick to a diet?

Today's Weight: 246.4 lbs

Total Gained: 5.5 lbs

Here is your horoscope
for Tuesday, May 6:

You may find that you're a bit stressed out over the flood of recent events, but you'll make it through just fine. Make sure that you can reach out to friends and family -- but try to stay in one place.


Does being told you need new breaks on your car count as stress?

I'm Back...... [03 May 2008|12:35am]
[ mood | tired ]

Well, I am back from jury duty, and I will try to catch up with everyone here. I don't promise to hit all the entries I missed. So if something special has happened or is going on, please let me know if I miss it.
I ended up with five out of ten days worth of jury duty. Two cases. One was the traffic stop with the person giving a false name and then fleeing the police, last week. The second one was an assult case. A woman was accused of smashing a glass into a man's face at a bar and slicing his face open. Both were found guilty of all their accounts.
In my opinion and a few other people on the jurys, both the prosecution and the defense didn't do really good jobs.
As I said last week, I was the lone vote for not guilty originally, but was able to change my mind and vote guilty. The second trial, I was on board with guilty to start with but there were three other guys that were having a really hard time voting guilty. Even after really working it over in their minds and deciding to vote guilty, you could see it in their faces that it bothered them. I felt the same way the week before.
When the judge was dismissing us from the second case, he told us he thought this would allow us to not serve again for 4 years. I don't know if it means we won't be called for 4 years or we don't have to serve if we don't want to. I am hoping it means we don't have to if we don't want to. I would like to do it again sometime and not wait for another 4 years. Of course it took me over 26 years this first time. LoL.........
So now I am back to work. Well, for one night and then I am off for the weekend. LOL........
I hope you have all had a great week.

You need to really listen when friends or family members offer suggestions today -- some of them seem crazy on the surface, but are actually pretty reasonable once you've thought them through.


Give me crazy any day. lol................................

This is funny, because I can't stand the Raiders. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Your Score: Oakland Raiders


You scored 54% Competitiveness, 57% Management, 55% Luck, and 79% Fan Support!



You scored well in everything except competitiveness. Every year you seem to have a lot going for you: good executives, a little luck, and of course Raider Nation; but in the end, your team still doesn't have the desire to go out and win the games.

Jury Duty....... [29 Apr 2008|04:15am]
[ mood | hopeful ]

I am called in again today. Unfortunately not until 1:15 in the afternoon.
Keep your fingers crossed for me again that I might get another case to sit in on. I would really like the chance to do it again. :)

Jury Duty.......... [26 Apr 2008|07:50am]
I was called in on Wednesday for a jury selection process. It was for a case involving a man who was accused of giving a false name to the police at a traffic stop and then fleeing them in his car.
I was one of the 13 selected for the jury. :) Kind of a lame case, but it was my first time and it was interesting going through the whole process.
The trial didn't start until Thursday. The only witnesses called were the three police officers involved with the case.
To be perfectly honest, I think the prosecution and the defense did a pretty lousy job. There was missing evidence on the polices behalf. It was brought up that the defendant had an outstanding arrest warrant for a parole violation. No objection from his attorney for being irrevalant to this case. He had gotten away from the police that night, but we never heard where he was eventually arrested and if he was found that easy for that why didn't they find him for his parole violation??? Two of the police officers failed to notice another police car at the scene.
The first jury vote was like many old sitcoms you see, everyone voted guilty but one person.
Can anybody guess who voted not guilty?????
I eventually after some discussions was able to vote guilty using the definition of reasonable doubt. I could say guilty, but still have some doubts about it.
I am not going to hold my breath that I will get called in again before the end of next week, but I will cross my fingers that I will get another chance.
Once they call you out and you sit in that jury box, it really does put a whole different look on things.

So how was your week? :p

for Saturday, April 26:

You get a bump from a friend who's got power you didn't know about. It might be something small, but it could just as easily lead to a promotion or something else of serious value.


I wonder who that could be? :o

for Friday, April 25:

Speak up -- out off turn, if need be -- to let people know what's really going on. You can see much more clearly than quite a few of them and should also be able to convince them you're right.

This would have been good for Thursday and jury duty. LOL..........................

Beware of dealing with the boss -- at work or at home -- because they are likely to contradict you when you least expect it. As long as you're ready to adapt, everything should be fine.

Jury Duty the Saga Continues....... [23 Apr 2008|03:12am]
[ mood | curious ]

Well, it looks like I am finally getting called into jury duty. Let's hope it isn't a waste of time and I actually get to do something. :)
With that said, I won't be working tonight, so I will try to catch up with you all later.
I hope you all have a great Hump Day.
Take care........

Diet Week # 16............. [23 Apr 2008|02:46am]
[ mood | okay ]

Well, I think we will call this week a relatively good one.
I lost some weight and I am back to 0. That's not necessarily great, but I am out of the positive. Let's hope it makes it another week.
Unfortunately, I think we need to give some credit this week to eating some out of date veggie dip. I had a really bad belly ache today. :(

Today's Weight: 240.9 lbs

Total Lost: o lbs

You need to make sure that you're absolutely sure of yourself before taking any major steps today. That might take a long time, so make sure that any impatient coworkers or family members are looking away.


UGH, those coworkers are always looking at me. :o

You Belong in Generation Y



You fit in best with people born between 1982 and 2001.

You are cooperative, flexible, and adaptable.

You know the world changes quickly, and you're eager to change with it.

You are socially responsible, forward thinking, and open minded.





You Are a Hazelnut



You are very unique and distinct. You may even freak some people out.

Most people don't really know how to interact with you.

You get along best with anyone who is super sweet.

But you really do get along with almost anyone. You just need a chance to wow them.




Do I need to go any further, or should I just copy all of Owl's?????

Civic Duty............ [19 Apr 2008|02:53am]
[ mood | sleepy ]

Monday I start my jury duty time. I have it for two weeks, so I am not sure how often I will be around here.
I am hoping that they will call me in every day of the two weeks to give me a nice little break from the hospital and all the joy it brings to my life. :p
Better yet a case that would last longer than two weeks. lol................
So if I don't say hi for a little while I haven't fallen off the face of the planet. Well, at least I hope not.
I hope everybody has a great weekend and I will see you all soon. :)
