Kelly Monaco does 1000 situps a day!
I'm a little afraid to post this as I can forsee being slapped with lawsuits left and right of people trying to do 1000 situps a day all of a sudden, but since I'm pretty sure that no one besides the imaginary people in my head actually read this, I'...
Crappy Day
Yeah, this week is just absolutely dragging. I started off on Monday feeling like I needed to just go home and take a vacation day, and that feeling has literally followed me throughout every hour of my week. Maybe I'll give in on Friday and leave ...
Obama Speech
It's 8:25pm right now; Obama is speaking on tv; I'm watching Reaper, I couldn't take it any longer. There were so many things he said in 20 minutes that pissed me off, with his blatent lies and misdirection, that I don't even know what to mention.I l...

Ever just have a day where every little thing is getting on your nerves? I think it's kinda like the straw that broke the camels back. All the the bigger things are adding up and you just have no room for anything else to bug you or get in your bra...
TGIF!!!!!
Never have I meant this more than this week. Annoyances, worries, stress, horrible fatique, and definitely PMS. Yes, I admit it, this week, I could have just strangled half the people I came in contact with. My friday was drug out, and my afterno...
Migraine Day
Ok, I don't think it's a migraine, that always sounds much more severe, and less prolonged than this. But I'm not sure what this headache of mine is from. I keep getting it and its really getting to me. I also keep getting shaky and tired. I can'...
Yesterday
Just because I didn't post yesterday doesn't mean I was thrilled with the Superbowl results. It was probably the closest I ever watched and enjoyed a football game. I think I could almost get into it regularly if they were all that good. It's a ve...
Twilight
I just finished the first book in the Twilight series. A coworker loaned it to me (and a number of other coworkers, its spreading) and I read it over the last few days. I loved it; its written for teenagers, but its such a cute, well written, intere...
Finally, some help with my energy bill!
Thankfully, my appointment with the energy assistance group went well, I qualified for a $500 credit to my account! That will clear up my backlog of payments built up through the course of the year while on the budget with a broken water heater suck...
Pork Rinds - Diet Food....? Huh?
I was in the supermarket the other day standing in the checkout line behind this guy who was explaining to the cashier that his doctor had just put him on a low-carb diet, which included, among other obvious choices, the daily snacks of Beef Jerky an...
Quick Post
Hi everyone, not much to report today. Same ol, same ol. I noticed someone clicked on my google ad today, so whoever that was, thanks :) I'll take whatever I can get with this economy. Best part of my day was having the RVP ask me if I could pull...
Well I got Monday out of the way
Thankfully my first day of the week is now officially over. It wasn't a bad day, I was fairly busy and had an hour and half meeting to take a chunk out of the usual which was good. But I'm tired; didn't sleep well last night and can't wait for bed....
Pretending to Ski
I swapped out my Sunday morning walk with about 20 minutes on my Nordic Track ski machine. It was kinda cool with the snow newly laid down outside my window from yesterdays snowstorm. However, any longer and it would have sucked. I really don't like ...
Running in the Rain
Well, almost. I procrastinated all morning because it was raining and I really wanted to go for a run today and take advantage of the unusually warm temperatures today (near 60 degrees). When I finally did go out the rain had stopped, despite dark ...
Buried under the snow!
Today is a definite, official snow day here. Not just for the schools either. The whole downtown area was shutdown at lunchtime by the governor. I had just enough time to catch the bus and get home before the snow started. They learned from last ...
Promotion... sort of! Yeah!
After two days of worrying about my surprise meeting scheduled for this morning, it turned out to be a good thing. Apparently, they are reorganizing the dept, changing account loads and job duties, and creating a few "new" departments and jobs from ...
It's only Saturday
This is my favorite part of the holidays, I've been home two days and it's still only Saturday. AAAAAHHHHHHH... so nice!I went down to the gym this morning and did my 20 minutes of weights, 20 minutes on the elliptical, and 50 minutes on the treadm...
T-Day!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope everyone is up or getting up to a great Thanksgiving day morning, preparing for the festivities of family get-togethers and tons of special food smells permeating the air. Personally, I woke up to cold cereal, a...
Done Early!
Yeah, I got out two hours earlier today to start the T-giving day holiday! Of course, I still went to the gym afterwards. I did 20 minutes on the elliptical, 15 minutes of upper body weights, and then ran 4.3 miles. What was weird though, was that...
One down, two to go
Two more days till Thanksgiving! And a long four day weekend! I had a pretty slow day today, somewhat busy, but nothing particularly eventful. I brought in my recipe for the work cookbook. I made this once or twice, and it came out good. It's a good,...
Quiet Afternoon
Holy Crap, it was cold today! I walked out to the bus stop and thought my head was going to freeze off. Seriously, its not even Thanksgiving yet, this is too soon! I want to enjoy autumn weather for a bit longer! Oh, in spite of that, I went to ...
Family Luncheon
Played hookie from work today - ok it was a random scheduled vacation today, but it was a welcome one. My mother and I went and had lunch with an aunt who I haven't seen since christmas. We had some very good, authentic italian pizza at a little rest...
Good Start
Today was a good start to the week. I'm feeling better today than over the weekend, and I actually had work to do all day. I was loving it. It won't last much longer I'm sure since my boss is out the rest of the week. But it was a good day and to...
Two for One
Ok, yesterday I didn't post because I was still not feeling well. I got up early and thought I was feeling good, got dressed, took the bus down to the gym, and was nearing time to go home when I got sick - nuff said, other than it screwed up the rest...
Slow, slow day at work!
I know the economy is bad right now for everyone, but it can't be a good sign that I have no work to do all day. I've worked there a year and have officially "graduated" out of the probation/training period, and supposedly have the same case load as...
