Thursday, November 30, 2006 God I am too easily amused … I can actually feel my brain cells dying ..... Posted by MJ @ 7:37 AM (2) Blogger Comments Tuesday, November 28, 2006 Welcome to Utah assholes Ok so here is the deal .. This is Utah it snows here EVERY damn year.. It is nothing new. I know since I have lived here all of my adult life that it will snow some time in November and will continue to snow off and on until sometimes may. It is not a surprise to me when it snows it is not shocking like why the hell is it snowing? Nope I have never ever been shocked by the snow .. sometimes it snows a little some times it snows a lot .. sometimes you feel like a nut sometimes you don’t .. Damn I am so clever.. Anyway someone tell me WHY Why does everyone seem to freak out when it snows?? I don’t like the snow but I still don’t freak out WHEN it snows .. Why does everyone seem to forget how to drive when it snows?? And it seems that just as soon as everyone starts to remember HOW to drive in the snow it is April and the snow is gone. And I just also need to say that it pisses me off when people are driving and it is not snowing or raining and they still have there windshield wipers on .. What the hell ??? Can you not see them MOVING in front of your face? GOD … I wish that I was in charge .. Someone put me in charge.. PLEASE !!! Please ??? I would make it so that if someone moved here or they just turned the legal driving age they could not get there drivers license UNTILL they have spent one whole winter in Utah driving the freeway and roads. And until then they would not be allowed to have a license period … they would have to drive with a trained professional until they could meet the MJ standard . That is how it would have to be. Then I could drive my 90 mile round trip to work in peace and happiness Posted by MJ @ 2:59 PM (3) Blogger Comments Why is this SO damn funny to me ? Posted by MJ @ 6:15 AM (6) Blogger Comments And in this corner... I hate the snow.. I hate it…. I hate it .. Gurrrrrrr So last night it snowed .. yes it did and I hated every minute of it.. Sure it is beautiful to watch when you are sitting at home having an awesome cup of coffee.. but the second that I remember that I have to drive to work in it.. flames shoot out of my eyes.. And I start to feel kinda bitchy (imagine that) I need a beach.. Oh how I need a beach… Hawaii here I come… Posted by MJ @ 6:09 AM (2) Blogger Comments Saturday, November 25, 2006 Look at this photograph….. Last night as I was sorting through boxes trying to decide on what to move and what to throw away, I came across a box that was in the storage under my stairs that was FULL of pictures that I have not seen for over 5 years… I took the box upstairs and started to look through them.. 4 pictures of ex boyfriends and a Junior high ID of my very first boyfriend. Boy did I think that I was soooo in love. What the hell was I thinking? It is amazing as I looked at those pictures of my ex’s I truly wondered what I saw in these men/boys? What was it? Some of them broke my heart others, I broke there’s. I wonder what it would have been like if I would have met my husband sooner? Would we have worked out? Would we have been one of those couples that meet in elementary and marry later on in life? I sure could have saved myself a lot of headaches and heart breaks. Then I think of the two wonderful children tha I have and the awesome boy that he has and think that it is meant to be that we met later than sooner. Pictures of my Father. Now this is different that my DAD. I have a few pictures of my father and as I was looking through them it was like looking at someone else’s pictures. No feelings. Don’t know him.. wont know him …and really am ok with it. Pictures of my children.. I guess that as I live life day to day doing my stuff I forget just how fast my kids are growing up. Dear god my son is going to graduate in 5 years!! My daughter some how went from being a cute snuggly baby to a 17 year old with attitude??!! What happened .. I have to remind myself that she is really 10. I think back and wonder how did I do it ? Pictures of my DAD .. Now he says that I am the reason that he is loosing/lost his hair and I am beginning to believe it. I found a picture of my mom and dad on there wedding day and HE DID have a lot of hair!! But to tell the truth I think that he looks better without it! I am sure it can get cold, but it is very distinguishing. I saw pictures of him and my kids together just being the cool grandpa that he is and it made me feel lucky to have such a amazing dad ! Pictures of my Mom. Now my husband has seen pictures of my mom when she was younger and exclaimed “your mom was HOT” a couple of years ago one of my husbands friends came over to my mom and dads and hung out.. later on that day my husbands friend went on and on about how HOT my mom is.. ok had to draw the line .. she IS MY MOM … GOD.. let’s just hope that these HOT genes will come to me … SOON And yes people still ask if she is my sister …… …pictures of my mom being a cool grandma .. I am damn blessed to have her in my life. Pictures of me and my husband.. god we looked so young and it really was not too long ago when we started dating.. He is just as sexy as ever.. He is a work of art to me. He is so damn smart and I am jealous of it. He is damn fun to be around. I find that I laugh with him more that I laugh with anyone else. That is what I loved about him in the beginning and still love to this day. I love how he curses everyone when he drives, saying that everyone else is driving JUST to piss him off. I love how he sings the wrong lyrics to songs, how his forehead wrinkles, how his hands are always warm, ok so I could go on and on.. I am a damn lucky girl … As I look back on my life ... and the people that I love ... I know in my heart that I am truly blessed. Posted by MJ @ 8:30 PM (2) Blogger Comments Would I know ?? How would I know if a miracle happened ?? Posted by MJ @ 6:47 PM (2) Blogger Comments Tuesday, November 21, 2006 Shut up and read.... Ok so I am reading this book …After Harry Potter was discovered and read by me and my daughter … I have found a love for children/teen books They are great and they also are a good way to get out of the reading “rut” that I seem to get into I have tried to join “book clubs” and have read a few of Oprah’s books but they: 1. Suck 2. Are too depressing 3. Are too boring 4. Are the same story told a different way Avid readers have this problem.. you see I like all kinds of books and I mostly like mysteries.. but after you read so many they all begin to sound the same but with different characters. My friend called me the other day (There is nothing better than going to the book store with her and sitting for HOURS just talking and reading the backs of books the only down fall is I blow 100.00) Anyhow she called and she said that she was reading THE BEST BOOK and that she can’t put it down … on and on .. so what do I do ?? I go and buy it and now I just want to finish the book I am reading now so that I can read this one … Also I am going to read Leven Thumps .. the only reason why is that my neighbor gave my daughter autographed copies of books one and two. Let me tell you I have never seen my daughter so damn excited!! Must be good ?? Anyone else know of any great books out there and would like to share ??? A appendixless gal would love to hear about em’ Posted by MJ @ 7:53 PM (3) Blogger Comments Yes I have been a stubborn this month.... I have been off work since November 8th because my appendix. Which has been removed and is in a garbage can somewhere. Why the HELL do we even have an appendix? It does nothing (that is what the doc tells me) but as soon as it breaks it hurts like a bitch. My white blood cell count is “high” that is all they tell me and I have had a low grade fever for almost 2 weeks. The doctor told me last week that I would be able to return to work on Tuesday after I was him on Monday.. Went to see the doctor on Monday and was told that I still have an infection and will need IV antibiotics and will not be able to return to work until NEXT Monday.. Here is the deal.. YES it can be nice to stay home and relax.. read a book watch a movie HOWEVER… when I was told that I could not return to work for another week .. It just made me want to go to work more.. It is the stubborn child in me that is shouting REEBBELLLL MJ rebel!! I have read 2 books and have watched season one and two of LOST and about 45 other movies .. It is time to go back to work !! If I WANT to do something like stay home and read or watch a movie.. Then it is ok but if I am TOLD that I HAVE to do something like stay home read and watch movies. It makes me crazy !! All I can think about is how I can con the doctor to let me go back to work sooner… It is the same theory for me as I am a smoker and can go for long periods of time without a smoke as long as it is on MY terms but when I get in a situation where I can’t smoke like on an air plane … ALL I can think about is smoking … What the hell ?? Good thing that I see my therapist tomorrow.. We now have ANOTHER issue to resolve … geezzzzz Posted by MJ @ 5:01 PM (4) Blogger Comments Friday, November 17, 2006 All I have to say is ............ I HATE TODAY Posted by MJ @ 9:52 AM (3) Blogger Comments Thursday, November 16, 2006 I just want a cup of coffee…. After I read the CEO'S blog this morning ... I was feeling good enough to go to Starbucks to get me one of these so I got dressed.. well kinda.. if you consider.. a sweat shirt and flannel pants as getting dressed .. but right now folks that is as good as it gets. (belly button is STILL burning) Anyhow.. I was feeling super chipper thinking about the yelling neighbors and deer peeing in yards and eating of the shrubbery ... The coffee house was PACKED .. it is 10:30 am .. DON’T YOU PEOPLE WORK ??? geezzzz.. so there I was waiting in line thinking happy thoughts mouth watering.. waiting,. When In walks Mr. Holly shit I am SOOO important … Hey everyone LOOK AT ME … I am so FLY .. PUKE ME any way Mr. Fly we will call him gets in line right behind me .. he is on his cell phone and Yelling .. “yep I just got back from vacation .... it was so hot there... I and met these chicks.. Oh dude I was soooo drunk.... We partied every night …. I seriously thought about turning around and giving him the “low down” .. On this thing we call the telephone …ya see there is a device right by your mouth that transmits the sound to the person on the other end .. then the sound magically goes to a speaker that is connected to the top part of the phone .. you know by the persons EAR .. so stop YELLING ..Jack ass ... But I didn’t (small pat on the back for me) Anyhow I am waiting and waiting and Mr. Fly is talking and talking Mr. Fly hangs up the phone and YELLS .. like his voice could not get any louder… STEVE…. STEVE… STEVE… Is that you ..???.... People it is a Starbuck’s .. It is not that big …. "Steve" looks up from his laptop and says … "Um … No ..My name is not Steve".. Mr. Fly.. OH' SHIT SORRY !! Then Mr. Fly says to me … I feel like such an ass…. REALLY ?????? Posted by MJ @ 5:30 PM (5) Blogger Comments Wednesday, November 15, 2006 Holly Shit have you EVER seen anything CUTER??? ~~~Look at US one month old ~~~ Posted by MJ @ 6:07 PM (3) Blogger Comments So, How U doin’? How am I doing you ask?? Um..... temp of 101 for two days now and that thing that once was my belly button is ON FIRE ~!~ So I called the doc and told him that I think that I am about to catch on fire at any moment and that my belly button is an inferno.. like the pit of HELL ......"come in at 2 pm today" he says. So I go see the doctor today and tell him where it hurts and then he PUSHES ON IT !! why 'oh why do they do that ?? W H Y ???? If I tell you that my belly button hurts that means that it HURTS and DON'T touch it !!! I do not understand this .. are they trying to see if it REALLY hurts ? like I am lying ? I know that they have a job to do but my hell !!!!! This doctor that I went to is a fantastic doctor but I had to tell him that this is not an OK thing to do to me.. EVER .....If I tell you that it hurts then you need to believe me Mr. Doctor. We now have an agreement. So he sent me to have a white blood cell count and to get a prescription of keflex and he will see me on Monday. So folks THAT is how I am doing !! Wish that I could tell ya all a thrilling story about me taking a week adventure to the Amazon to learn some tribal rituals.. However, Here I sit at home ON FIRE and not in a sexy way !!! Posted by MJ @ 3:41 PM (3) Blogger Comments Sunday, November 12, 2006 Oh my god what happened to my belly button ??? Horraayyy I get to shower today ..I have not had a shower since Wednesday Docs orders here .. not being lazy .. it is a good thing that I have had NO ( yep feelings kinda hurt here ) visitors because I smell BAD .. I mean come on .. visit me .. bring some febreze, bring some food …. geez Anyhow as I was preparing to take my glorious shower the bandage came off of my bellybutton and I could not resist looking .. What the hell ?? so I used to have an innie now I have a combo of an innie and outtie … I am not liking the new bellybutton that I have.. I did not know that the doc went IN through the belly button but it looks like he did and now my belly button is a sad sad thing… Not sure that I will be able to wear my shiny belly button jewelry anymore… Is that vain of me ?? Not that my stomach was beautiful to begin with but I was kind of partial to the bellybutton that I had before my appendix was removed. The other incisions are healing nicely except for one …..My stomach hurts like a bitch and still feels like it is full of rocks …. Posted by MJ @ 8:08 PM (3) Blogger Comments Saturday, November 11, 2006 My week in a nut shell Tuesday all damn day I had this terrible pain on the right side of my stomach .. well it started by my belly button.. then made it’s way towards my side and around my back .. at work I tried to have all of my co-workers diagnose me … well I was not quite satisfied with the diagnosis from my fellow co-workers so I went to the ER.. after an ultrasound, 2 damn bottles of that nasty shit they call barium ( NASTY NASTY SHIT) for my CT scan. 7 hours later in comes the doc and says well we are not sure what is wrong with you .. looks like there is some strange kind of mass in you abdomen here is a prescription for pain meds go home and rest if you don’t feel better come back ..

Posted by MJ @ 6:23 PM (5) Blogger Comments Thursday, November 02, 2006 Dread Dear god, I should have stayed home … Here is hubby’s horoscope Lets hope that we both come out alive !! Scorpio There is a negative intensity about the day that is only going to get worse if you continue to maintain a stubborn attitude about every issue that comes to your attention, dear Scorpio. Much of today's activity is going to be focused on ways in which people can break out of their boxes and see things in an entirely different perspective. If you insist on going against the grain and remaining fixed and immovable in your ways, you will only be met with extreme resistance. Posted by MJ @ 8:46 AM (3) Blogger Comments Run for the hills I stole this idea from RO After reading my horoscope I feel compelled to warn all of you to remain calm today as I randomly freak out and fire shoots out of my eye balls. And if you see me running .. (like THAT would happen) it is because I am trying to prevent possible death and destruction ! Leo There is a tremendous amount of physical energy building up within you, dear Leo. Be careful that you don't let this incredible force come out in the form of a heated argument against someone you really care about. Perhaps you suddenly feel as if everything is caving in on you, and you desperately need some means of escape. Go outside. Put on a pair of sneakers and go for a good long run. Find a way to release this tension. Posted by MJ @ 8:11 AM (1) Blogger Comments Wednesday, November 01, 2006 Ariel ??? Headstrong and fiesty. You have a mind of your own that's full of romantic dreams about the world around you.
