And it only gets better....

Sorry I haven't BLOGGED in a while, life has been a little crazy...

First, my friends came in town from CA, UT, and WA for Halloween in Vegas--which was a very interesting story in and of itself but to spill details might cause embarrassment to others and the only one I am allowed to shame on here is me. Well me and ONE other person...

Lets talk about the word "hate"...

I know we teach our kids not to say it and to imply that I hate someone must mean that I had or have love for them on some level because they are polar opposites, BUT if most of us are honest- somewhere, sometime in our lives there has been a person we very very very strongly disliked="hate".
I personally claim 2.
One was back in college and she tried to talk smack about me (in my basement to a boy I happened to be having a little fling with) and I heard the whole conversation because I was laying on my floor listening through the heat vent with my other 2 roommates. And that "hate" wasn't long lasting, but was strong for the time. Yes, its a bit shameful I was lying on a floor of that disgusting house listening through a HEAT VENT, but my very keen Private Investigator skills told me I had reason to be suspicious and this avenue of creativity would confirm that.

And now there is my new "hate" person. I don't know what it is but when this person (who is obviously not a blogger, not related to a blogger and not friends with any of my blogging friends) calls me it drives me into a frenzy!!! He is a self-centered, oblivious, spoiled man-child. Lets call him a boy-child because he is definitely not a man. Oh I am mean I know! I have never been so fired up by anyone in my life and even though I make numerous snide, sarcastic comments-he doesn't get it. And I know in my gut, because he is so mentally challenged, he will call again... Yes, I have learned to send to voicemail, but it still chaps my hide :)

SIDE NOTE- I know I use poor grammar, skip the spellcheck, and use lots of run on sentences, sorry.

Moving on, lets get back to how fun and exciting my life is...

1- my younger brother ended up in the hospital Sunday night with stones in his gall bladder. Well, they'd like to do some surgery to take those puppies out and put them in a jar to show everyone BUT he has a fever and an inflamed pancreas, which seem to cause more alarm than the stones, and surgery can't be done until issues 2 and 3 are resolved. Guess what else he gets while in the hospital? NO FOOD OR WATER! Hello, this boy has been living on ice chips for 4 days now!!! I know you only get ice chips when you check in to have a baby, BUT, my brother is not the "man" on the news that had a baby!
Please feed my brother. And the starving children in Africa, while you're at it.

2-my wonderful, cute, lifeline of mine- my laptop- got a nasty virus and blew up. I just bought that little sucker 1.5 yrs ago and of course I didn't buy the "extended warranty"... Let this be a lesson to you all... You want to blog, you buy the stupid warranty. Oh, and you don't put off "backing up the important stuff" because its a little more work than blogging...

3-I sold my cute gay parakeets. No, they didn't fly away on their own in some uproar about me being a mormon and being in support of prop 8... They were screaming to the other birds in New Hampshire every day and I felt like it might be time to let someone else appreciate their beautiful love songs... Poor single dad and his 2 little girls, they have NO idea what they got themselves into. That money went to great use- refer back to #2.

So, after the FURY of my hate friend, the WORRY of my brother, the IRRITATION about my computer and the GRIEVING about my birds, I decided it was time for a little adventure!

Today I finished work and went to the DMV right across the street from one of the salons I service, thinking I should get myself a Nevada ID card so I can go to the library AND get discounts for my friends when they come in town... (Ive been here for a year now but cant give up my CA drivers license). Have any of you ever been to the Nevada DMV????? Anything I say would sound prejudicial and stereotypical, maybe even racist, so I will just leave it to- DONT GO. It took me more than an hour waiting in line and them rejecting my plea to get an ID but keep my CA license to figure out this was a horrible outing! So, after a long day and a waste of my precious time, I am thrilled to head home to get out of my heels and take a shower (it makes you feel dirty and stinky all over in there).
I hurry out to my car, hop in and BAM.... DEAD BATTERY.

Good thing my dad has AAA and good thing I spent all 4 years in High School mastering the art of forging his signature on "doctor appointments/family emergency" notes....

That sums up my week and why I have not put a gloriously funny post up! I hope you all had a calm Halloween, hug your yummy husbands, kiss AND FEED your kids, appreciate your pets, check your batteries AND RENEW YOUR LICENSES ONLINE!

Love you all!
