Heartbroken for a girl I went to school with.

I found out today that a girl(Michelle Merryman)that I went to school with lost her baby. The umbilical cord was wrapped around her little girl's neck twice. It just breaks my heart to hear that. She lost her son a few years ago when he was a baby too. All that heartbreak. I cannot even imagine what she is going through right now. This is one of the bad things about Facebook. You kind of watch people go through their pregnancies, and you get to see the baby in the end. Michelle has posted a ton of updates about her pregnancy along with ultrasounds, and her excitement about being dialated. She was supposed to go in tomorrow to be induced if she hadn't gone into labor. Tears me up.

Waving HI!

A new blog to follow ladies and uh guys...I really doubt there are any guys reading my blog. :)

Kalamities by Kailee

It is my cousin's daughter's blog. She is 4. She says the darndest things. :)


It is almost 3 in the morning.

My husband has been sick all weekend.

My sink in my bedroom officially overflowed out of the pot that was underneath it... twice.

I gave in and decided to call maintenance.

I cleaned like crazy before calling them.

They fixed my problem in 10 minutes! It was awesome!

I wanted to punch a kid today.
Ok he was over the age of 21, but he was acting like a child.
Here is the quick story....

Guy comes in with friends. The two guys buy beer. They also have two girls with them. One of the girls tries to buy wine. The license out here have a magnetic strip on the back, so after looking at the ID I tell her to slide it. It says she is too young. I tell her I can't sell it. She gets pissy. I tell her I am not going to do it. The register won't let me, so I am not doing it. My thoughts were that it could be fake. Seriously, she had been out in the sun or in the tanning bed way too much because she looked old and leathery. Stay out of the sun people! Anyway her friend next to her then proceeds to think I am going to sell it to her. Nope because that would mean you are buying it for your underage friend. She tells me that she is going to call a police officer up there to verify her ID, and I tell her ok. You can do that. That is fine with me! (oooo..I am totally scared that they are going to call the cops to come up there because I am doing my job.) They leave. The next guy that comes up (not with that group) wants to buy cigarettes. I look at his ID. It says he is old enough, the cashier tells me that this guy's ID has worked before. I tell him the same as the girl before, but he doesn't get pissy. I look at him tell him I am going to call our Field System Support because I think our system is messing up. Right after I tell him that, douche bag from previous group comes in and asks me (exact quote), "Who do you think you are not selling someone who is 21 beer?" At that moment, I had to stop myself from A. laughing and B. from punching this whiney bitch in the face. I would like to keep my job so instead, I looked at him with a very bored look on my face, and I told him that I was in the process of calling my corporate office to see what was going on. They tell me that it must just be acting up and to just enter the date of birth off of the license. I sell them their beer even though I want to tell them to get their butts out of the store, and I sell the nice patient guy his cigarettes (of course, I told him they were bad for him.) So much for a short story.

My cousin just made me laugh

My cousin just made me laugh, so I have to tell you.

I just got a message from my cousin, and she read my recent infertility post. She laughingly reminded me that I have nothing to worry about because we are very fertile family. I can't believe that I haven't thought about that!

*My mom has 3 sisters and 2 brothers (One who passed before having children)
Sister #1 has 5 children
Sister #2 has 2
Sister # 3 has 3
Brother has 2

*This is where it gets to be hard
Sister #1's 5 children
#1 2 Children
#2 2 Children but with some difficulties, but damnit she did it!
#3 1 kiddie
#4 and #5...I am not entirely sure about them, but well if you knew all of my cousins....let's just say they probably have some out there.

Sister #2's 2 children
#1 I think he has 2
#2 has 2

Sister #3's 3 children
#1 has 3..
#2 has 5
#3 has 1

Brother's 2
#1 has 6!
#2 has 2

I guess I should throw my family in there too. I have 3 brothers! :)

My dad's side

My uncle had 4 girls
#1 has 3 kids
#2 has 3 kids
#3 and #4 aren't making babies quite yet.

So aside from one cousin having difficulties, I, obviously, should not have a problem. :) Thanks for listening to my hysteria anyway. :)

Puzzle Pieces

Do not let me forget to tell you about my Puzzle Pieces philosophy! I thought I had already talked about it on here, but I looked back and it does not appear to have come up!

I can't believe it has almost been a year!

Click here to read what I was thinking about last year at this time!
We went to the Angels' game tonight! :) I had a pretty decent time! A guy from Jack's work and his girlfriend came. She wasn't too bad. She is just one of those girls who was practically white hair with those random black pieces mixed in. Interesting style, but just not for me. :)

I noticed that water had come up in my sink yet again today. I gave in and found a neighbor who would let me have a wire hanger. While in the process of asking, she informed me that she is having a similar problem in her apartment!!! She told me that her daughter's bedroom flooded TODAY! She is also on the bottom floor like us. I just wanna know what the hell the people above us are putting down their sinks! I really do not want to have to call maintenance, but it is looking like I am going to have to suck it up and go ahead and do it. Bleech. Strange, weird person in my apartment. :( I need to get the water pressure looked at in the spare bedroom too, so I will just add that to the list of things to have looked at.

I am thinking that tomorrow will be another Swapmeet day, OR maybe I will finally be able to convince my husband to go to San Juan Capistrano tomorrow. ORRRR!!!! Even better! We could go to Long Beach! I totally want to go check out the Queen Mary! I want to do that sooooo badly! The only thing that does suck is that it is Memorial Day weekend. Tourists big time! Traffic is going to suck ass through Monday. I could not believe all of the wrecks this afternoon because of the influx of people! It is kind of strange to realize that I live in a tourist town. Eeek! Will I want to buy a bumper sticker that says, "Tourists go home" before too long?

154

I am extra boring tonight. Promise. The most exciting point of my day was not exciting at all. Jack has been sick to his stomach all night. He went to lunch somewhere and got a burger called The Godfather Burger. It apparently had 2 patties and pastrami on it... no wonder he didn't feel well.


I will share this with you just incase you didn't see it on Facebook yet. :)

The following was found posted VERY LOW on a refrigerator door:

Dear Dogs,

The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.

The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Racing me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't helo because I fall faster than you can run.

I cannot buy anything bigger than a King sized bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the counch to ensure your comfort. However, dogs can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other, streched out to the fullest extent. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out on the other end to maximize space is nothing by sarcasm.

For the last time, THERE IS NO SECRET EXIT FROM THE BATHROOM! If, by some miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, sniff, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge in an attempt to open the door. I must exit thrugh the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years, canine attendance is not required.

The proper order for kissing is: Kiss me first, then go smell the other dog's butt. I cannot stress this enough!

Finally, in fairness, dear pets, I have posted the following message on the front door:

TO ALL NON-PET OWNERS WHO VISIT AND LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT OUR PETS:

1. They live here. You don't.
2. If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. Thans why they call it "fur"-niture.
3. I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.
4. To you, they are animals. To me, they are adopted sons and daughters who are short, hairy. walk on all fours and don't speak clearly.

Remember, dogs are better than kids because they:

1. Eat less
2. Don't ask for money all the time
3. Are easier to train
4. Normally come when called
5. Never ask to drive the car
6. Don't smoke, drink or do drugs
7. Don't want to wear your clothes
8. Don't have to buy the latest fashions
9. Don't need a gazillion dollars for college
10. If they get pregnant, you can sell their children


Here is to hoping that I actually get a decent night's sleep.
