It happened again....and a random thought

Alright that is it…. I am convinced that spiders are plotting together to get me. seriously listen to this incident today at work. No one ever sees spiders in their offices… oh yea except me. So I was tying away on my adding machine like a crazy woman and the poof here come this black deadly spider trickling down its web from my filing cabinet which hangs above my adding machine. Yes I freaked and you would to. So I murdered it quickly with my note pad (which I will no long use cause of the bloody mess on the back of it). Then no lie I went over to water my plant that sits on the ground in my office. As I am singing and watering away I notice movement from the bottom on the pot.. Yes people there is was ANOTHER deadly evil disgusting black spider. This time I screamed I couldn’t help it. I stomped like I was in river dance and thankfully got it. Why are things I hate attracted to me. I also hate cats. I’m sorry cat lovers I do not like them one bit. I have only met one cat that I liked and that was because he acted like a dog. I am extremely allergic and just don’t like the claws and creepy stretching and snooty ness… So in other words if there is a cat within 10 miles they will want to come see me or sit on my lap or rub on my leg. Ew!

RANDOM THOUGHT:
Fall is here and I don’t like it. I only like summer. I truly believe I belong on an island out in the Caribbean…preferably alone.. Wait no I need my dog then I will be happy as long as I have my man Butters, a cell phone so I can text, and my coach purses so I can stare at them and how beautiful they are. oh wait I also want my new car cause I love that as well.

High School

This last weekend I went to my best friends wedding. Don and I have been best friends since 7th grade. We still remember our 3 minute secret hand shake we have had since then. It was a tough wedding realizing he is off to start his life. We were homecoming prince and princess in 10th grade and homecoming king and queen our senior year. We went to sno-frolic together and prom. Always had the best of times and still kept in touch as we moved out into the big bad adult world. While at the wedding I kept thinking of great high school memories that I will cherish forever. So, I thought I should share some with you…

Jenn and I have a lot of good ones together… like the time we were cruising around in my car and were laughing so hard I almost smashed into the side of Mobil. Or the time it was slippery out and I smashed into Kyle’s car. How about the time when I got suspended with my friend Carl for saying Blow Job in front of 8th graders, or the time we thought we were bad and smoked parsley, or the time I thought I was a bad ass and stole a cup from Holiday and the felt so guilty I returned it the next day, I swear I got kicked out in the hall like every day from Dettmann’s class for being a smart ass. Oh how I miss the drama and crushes and no worries about bills or work, I remember I use to be able to party till 1 in the morning and get up at 6 for work. Wow I feel quite old now. There is no way I could do that anymore. I remember smoke cruises everyday at lunch and stopping at Holiday and getting a chicken and swiss every single day. I remember getting my heart broken for the first time and how nice my shop teacher was and let me go home for the day. I remember laughing so hard that Mrs. Yoki threatened to kick Earl, Bob and I out of accounting. It was because of her I went to school for what I did. One time we had a hypnotist come to the school and I was chosen. I faked the whole thing in front of the whole school. It was hilarious. I think to this day some people still believe it was real. Or the time Tanner borrowed wait stole.... my linkin park cd. I never saw it again. Don and I would bring out fold out lawn chairs and store then in a locker so every morning while kids sat on the ground waiting for school to start we had nice comfy chairs. I remember sleeping through both of my after proms. I remember making ‘make out’ trips to the slab with my boyfriend. I remember coming home bawling because I had no boobs and someone called me anorexic. I remember our sweet sleep overs at Stephs house and raiding her parents booze and filling them back up with water. I think her parents still don’t know. I remember when I got caught by my dad drinking for the first time. He didn’t ground me, he took my contacts away from me and made me wear my nasty bi focal thick glasses. It was the worst punishment ever.

Enough I remembers for ya? What do you remember best about high school?

Cars, Spiders, Under Pressure, Oh My....

Well um wow. I just rushed home from work on my lunch and whipped this bad boy up. So… work is good, friends are good, Butters is good, all is good. What is new with me?!? Well have you ever felt like you have 800 million things to accomplish in 20 seconds. Yep that is how I feel. You know that song Under Pressure I think it is by Queen, yea that is playing non stop in my head. Work, cheerleading, tutoring center, bowling league, friends, life, family, stamp club, dog, kids…. Oh wait thank god NO on that one. But for some weird reason I manage to get everything done that I need. It is a good feeling I give it that. This last week I bought my new car. Here is a pic but it is black. She is so beautiful I love her so. I want to drive around and around in circles singing life is a highway. Maybe I will do that after work.

Tonight I am not up to much. I was attacked this morning by a huge spider. I swear it was hissing and chomping at me. It even had that super big butt so I am sure there were millions of babies hiding in there waiting for their chance to attack me. I swear I almost had a stroke. But fortunately I had Butters in my arms so I used him as a shield. I know I probably shouldn’t have kids. I’ll use them as shield for spiders and such. Ick I hate them so much I would rather go swimming in a lake of snakes then have to look at one spider. They are evil little monsters all plotting to get me when I am sleeping or least expect it. I am so afraid of them I am even considering living in a bubble like that movie bubble boy. Trust me if you knew me...I’m serious.

WE FEST

Well I just got back from We fest. For you who do not know of We Fest, it is a three day concert with all the big names in country music. 55,000 people were in attendance this year. I guess it was a new record. Everyone camps out in a giant field and pretty much gets drunk and act stupid. I fortunately got to camp with some not so stupid drunk people who think the only purpose in life is to get wasted and try to see boobs. So I had a good time. I left last Wednesday and then returned Sunday afternoon. Now lets get one thing straight I am not a fan of country. I am a rock girl through and through. I dislike country so much that when Jenn and I use to cruse around town in high school and college she automatically knew to turn off the country music and turn on some rock. So not being a country music fan I decided that I would try it and perhaps will come home like country. It didn’t happen. I watched… Taylor Swift, Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Little Big Town, Brad Paisley. Nope none of them turned me. I enjoyed my self at the concerts but not for the music, more for the conversation and people watching. One of the highlights at the fest was who I was camping with. I camped with Jim and Ashley ( who are getting married this weekend and I’m in their wedding) and their family. We had about 30 people in our camp. They all had RV’s and parked them in a giant circle so no campers could penetrate our camp. Then we all stretched out in the little field we made with our circle. We had screen tents, cooking area, tables, chairs, canopies, yard games of every proportion. It was fabulous, but the best thing of all every camper or mini group took a meal. Either breakfast or dinner. We all took turns making only one meal. Ours was the first night we made lasagna for everyone and then the rest of the long weekend we got to enjoy everyone else’s. This was no crappy cheap camping food. This was the real deal… breakfast burritos, fajitas, jambalaya, egg bakes, roast beef sandwiches, chicken stir-fry. We even made a couple of amazing Waps (I don’t know how to spell it, tons of fruit soaking in booze). It was awesome never having to worry about a meal. Best idea ever. By sat I was ready to go home. It was sunny and 85 the whole weekend. I can’t complain it was nice and never any bugs and I didn’t get a sun burn thanks to my handy cowboy hat. I had an awesome time but wouldn’t go back. Next summer I am going to rock fest, which is just like we fest maybe a little smaller but not much. Then I will know all the words. It was definitely worth it though even though I am not a country girl. Well I just got back from We fest.
