Funny Thursdays are BACK!

Going to see this ANYDAY now...


It IS illegal to talk on your cell phone and drive here in New York state...(I have been guilty a time or two myself.) So in traffic, people talk on their cell phones ALL THE TIME. Not even in traffic, I see people talk on them a lot...
How do I know that these people are on their cell phones you ask???
Because theses are the people WHO ARE RUNNING ME OFF OF THE DAMN ROAD!!!!!
And why are the police not giving out tickets for this??? That is a good way to #1 stop it and #2 get the police somemore money...I am GLAD they are out there protecting my ass! Hate it when I get a ticket, but happy as hell when there is a 2 minute response time to my 911 call! (Hope I never have to make THAT call!!!)

Happy Happy...

What is up with the universe???
Is it a full moon?
It is just me isn't is?
I WAS SINGING SEXYBACK BY JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE IN THE SHOWER THIS MORNING AND DANCING!!!! I trip over lint! I right now have 3 broken toes because I fell down 3 stairs letting the dogs out to pee and don’t even remember HOW I fell!!! So I am a bit of a klutz-always have been…I am a rock and roll girl but that song is really catchy...
ANYWAY…the universe…the boy mostly is who I am referring to…what to do what to do…I like the boy and I don’t want to like the boy…just gonna do like the good friend said and let it ride-can’t REALLY hurt right???
right?
RIGHT?
RIGHT???
Shit…….I hope not…….The good friends let me have it about my life yesterday too…THAT’S FOR A DIFFERENT POST-WOO-HOO!

Kiss it Goodbye

I ALWAYS get myself worked up over something that is nothing. I have no idea why I do this…I know I do it and I TRY to stop-I really do-but I just get so excited…euphoria…it’s a wonderful thing. BOYS…are a wonderful thing…if it was just a booty call someone should have told ME that from day one so I could have made my mind up if that was what I even wanted to do or not-and apparently it is not. He and I are chatting each other up and laughing and acting like old friends then BAM! Saturday at the neighbors we kiss and it is all I can do but not want to be in a relationship with this guy and have a boyfriend…shit-who am I fooling, I wanted that when he took me to lunch Thursday!!! He had to go and get all romantic on my ass...What is the rule…men use romance to get sex-women use sex to get romance…

SEE WHY I AM SINGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I AM GOING TO KILL YOU MRH, NEIGHBOR GIRL-
I know it is not your fault I think this way, but just never try to introduce me to anyone again please-it might look bad on your end too to have such a freaky friend.

Oh and the funny part too…told my Dad I had a date with a Chemistry teacher…here is conversation…
Me- “So, Dad went out on a neat lunch date Thursday.”
Dad-“Really, with whom?”
Me-“A guy the neighbor introduced me to.”
Dad-“The girl who lives next door to you in the woods? The pretty Indian one?”
Me-“YES DAD, the pretty one, and she is not in the woods, and guess what he does for a living?”
Dad-“What?”
Me-“He is a Chemistry teacher!” (Insert impressed voice)
Dad-“Well, did you keep your mouth shut so you didn’t scare him away?”
EXACT EFFING WORDS…
IS THAT FUNNY OR WHAT…
I CRACKED UP…He meant it because of my constant blabbering, NOT to be REALLY mean…LETS HOPE!
(Can anyone else hear therapy calling??????? =) Just kidding Dad…

Too good to be true...

MC took me to lunch on Thursday…
Lunch…are you kidding? It was out of a damn romance novel by Nora Roberts!!!! A picnic lunch at the park! One he did all by himself! A vegetarian one at that! He is a big Mr. Man hunter too…(ewwww.) I could not believe it. Too damn good to be true already. I love Nora Roberts’s novels! I hate this shit! I WANT THIS TO BE TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE BUT I KNOW BETTER. This stuff does not happen in real life. It just doesn’t, certainly not to me either. I am just waiting for the other shoe to drop, because it will.
This has me a mess. I am better to post about being sexually frustrated than to stress about men. THAT IS WHY I STAY SINGLE DAMNIT!!! Now I now why. I read too much into things that are not there and I make myself a mess-
WELCOME TO MY INSANITY…

***UPDATE***
I tried to post the above post on Thursday, but blogger shut me down. So I feel like a teenager again and it truly stinks. I can’t get this grin off of my face. I swear I am going to kill my neighbor for doing this to me…I love it and hate it all at once. He and I spent 4 hours sitting in a hammock talking and kissing outside at the neighbors where she had a fire going out back at her house. It was a beautiful night.
Do I sound like a dork or what???
He sends me text messages at work that make me giggle.
He seems too good to be true-too smart for me.
What do I think I am I doing?
I cannot get this grin off of my face.
It is never going to happen. It never does. I better get ready for let down now- and get over it-but I am having fun…
BUT I CAN’T AT MY DAUGHTER’S EXPENSE ANYMORE DAMNIT.
It will all be okay though…he has too much bullshit and I have too much bullshit and all of our bullshit mixed together would NOT be a good thing, so eventually-he will not want to be anywhere near my bullshit because he has enough of his own.
But, man right now, if I just let things BE and not WORRY…
even though that is what I do best…
...I sure am having fun…

I'm just a girl...

Met MC on the 18th of August. Don’t know what to think just yet, just nervous and very cautious. Was such a busy day with the wedding. Am too nervous now to know what I should really feel because I am just so excited that a boy likes me!!! It has been so damn long that I have even considered a boy liking me. I shut them all out I think. Then, I always like the guys I know I can never have for a reason. He is cute, really nice and super funny-and you know how I L-O-V-E someone or something funny. (He is a Mel Brooks fan!!!) We have a lot in common too…(Actually, I really have no idea about this. So far what we have talked about we have in common, and he could be a liar.) Well, except, that is, he is a HIGH SCHOOHL CHEMESTRY TEACHER!!!!! And I am…well, just, me. Crap, I didn’t even take chemistry in high school. I was too busy being a social whore…(I can hear the sharp intake of breaths-“No, not her!” ha ha) ...


So, do I like this guy or not?
Daughter really likes him too-That alone is CRAZY weird.
I am pretty damn busy with my daughter and whatever else it is I do…(what do I do???)
Do I want to date? (just saying that makes me laugh…it has been long)
OOOOO, DO I GET TO HAVE SEX??? I WANT TO DATE THEN…TONIGHT I WANT TO!!! (Just kidding)
What if he is a pervert like I always watch on Primetime? Won’t THAT just be MY luck?
See, damnit, I can’t date.
That is one of the reasons why. One of the others is because of my daughter. I chose to be a mom and I need to stick it out. Then, shit what the hell, I will be an un-wed woman over 40 so my chances of marrying a man are slim to none-but my chances of being blown up by a terrorist are higher…Unless I hook up with Star Jones, but I am not moving to the city.

Also, a big "Heller" to A & J out there if you guys are reading this... =)
"That's so FUNNY HAHAHAHA..." (insert obnoxious loud voice)

The last one kills just me...

A Simple Thank You
Last week, while traveling to Chicago on business, I noticed a Marine sergeant traveling with a folded flag, but did not put two and two together. After we boarded our flight, I turned to the sergeant, who'd been invited to sit in First Class (across from me), and inquired if he was heading home.
No, he responded.


Heading out I asked?
No. I'm escorting a soldier home.

Going to pick him up?
No. He is with me right now. He was killed in Iraq. I'm taking him home to his family.

The realization of what he had been asked to do hit me like a punch to the gut. It was an honor for him. He told me that, although he didn't know the soldier, he had delivered the news of his passing to the soldier's family and felt as if he knew them after many conversations in so few days. I turned back to him, extended my hand, and said,
Thank you. Thank you for doing what you do so my family and I can do what we do. Upon landing in Chicago the pilot stopped short of the gate and made the following announcement over the intercom.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to note that we have had the honor of having Sergeant Steeley of the United States Marine Corps join us on this flight. He is escorting a fallen comrade back home to his family. I ask that you please remain in your seats when we open the forward door to allow Sergeant Steeley to deplane and receive his fellow soldier. We will then turn off the seat belt sign." Without a sound, all went as requested. I noticed the sergeant saluting the casket as it was brought off the plane, and his action made me realize that I am proud to be an American.

So here's a public Thank You to our military Men and Women for what you do so we can live the way we do. signed:

Also, here are two very touching photos honored at this years International Picture of the Year.

First Place

Todd Heisler The Rocky Mountain News When 2nd Lt. James Cathey's body arrived at the Reno Airport, Marines climbed into the cargo hold of the plane and draped the flag over his casket as passengers watched the family gather on the tarmac. During the arrival of another Marine's casket last year at Denver International Airport, Major Steve Beck described the scene as so powerful: "See the people in the windows? They sat right there in the plane, watching those Marines. You gotta wonder what's going through their minds, knowing that they're on the plane that brought him home," he said. "They will remember being on that plane for the rest of their lives. They're going to remember bringing that Marine home. And they should."

Second Place
Todd Heisler The Rocky Mountain News The night before the burial of her husband's body, Katherine Cathey refused to leave the casket, asking to sleep next to his body for the last time. The Marines made a bed for her, tucking in the sheets below the flag. Before she fell asleep, she opened her laptop computer and played songs that reminded her of 'Cat,' and one of the Marines asked if she wanted them to continue standing watch as she slept. "I think it would be kind of nice if you kept doing it," she said. "I think that's what he would have wanted."

"No arsenal, no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women."
