A More In depth Update
Hello everyone,

Ok so I decided that since I can almost feel my arm and I haven't even used the computer all day that I'm going to use this time to update everyone on my life right now. 

So I went to scotland in July and had a blast. Flight was long,. I sat next to guy who kept spitting into a air sick bag and then into a bottle. Blech, I tried to ignore him. Then on the way home I sat next to a guy that wouldn't stop talking the whole time. Again flight was long and the Heathrow airport is laid out ridiculously stupidly. I made it to scotland in one piece and Neil almost walked right past me. We had lots of fun (ahem...yes in that way). He bought me shoes, and we went up Arthur's seat and down Princes street. We stayed in lovely hotels and I cried when I came home. We were supposed to go see the Michael Jackson concert on July 13, but he died. He's supposed to be coming to visit in December for a month to see my family.

Did I mention I met his family? His mom is a sweetheart and his dad is really shy. His brother's are annoying but his sister is so cute and so are his niece and nephew. He asked me to marry him on a street in london after we bought a ring to "keep my finger warm til he can afford a real one". The one he bought me is stirling silver with a glass stone in it. But I love it just the same.

However, since I've come home he's been a bit of an ass. I found a dating profile he used to have and he was talking to girl on there. It was an inappropriate conversation but he tells me it was joking and I took it out of context....I decided to take his word for it and we'll see what happens. But he seems to think that he can ignore me for 5 days and that it's ok. That he can hang up on me and put the phone off the hook when he wants to not talk to me. Like he did today. He left online in the middle of a conversation and then decided that today when I called him to see what was up, he mumbled (he was sleeping) and then hung up on me and left the phone off the hook. On purpose, I know it's on purpose. 

He's not always a jackass but he's definitely good at being one when he wants to be.

I have a tendonitis issue in my right shoulder which btw is killing me right now. It's kept me from work for 2 days and it's got me on 4 hours days instead of 8 hours days. Hurts, I claimed bankruptcy and it's almost over just a couple more payments and thats about it. I've started scrapbooking to take up some of my free time, and I got rid of my Maggie because she went skitzo and tried to kill Toby who is perfectly fat and wonderful.

That's it.

Still living
Hello everyone, I just wanted to let everyone to know that I'm still living. I've been to scotland, been home. Been engaged, and been sick. I have an injury in my arm keeping me from being able to type. This update hurts but I thought I should let everyone know, I'm still here.

Just a quick note
I've lost 4 pounds in 6 days...that's good but is it necessarily healthy?

Hate People

So today at work I got what's called a CIE which is essentially a you screwed up it's on your file type of thing. Anyway, I got this because someone before me screwed up and I looked at the information they gave and then advised the same, well because I did that I got into trouble because I should jave double checked the person before me's work...alright then.

 

And it happened several times tonight they I got screwed over because someone did something they shouldn't have and I had to clean up the mess...I mean honestly I almost quit.

People Are Stupid

So I just got home from work and feel like strangling something....BIG TIME!

 

People are stupid. And I've known this for a long time but honestly have never actually gottent  othe point where I want to reach through the phone and poke their little eyes out.

 

People seem to think that because they have money or status that the world should bow to them and the rules don't apply...it says cancel by 6 pm dingbat...5 hours late IS  BIG DEAL! Hence the reason we have your credit card number and are going to charge it MORON!

 

Calling people idiots while they are on mute gives me great pleasure.

 

I'm through ranting and plan to spend the rest of my night watching television with macaroni salad.

 

Bye for now!

Long Time, No Blog

Hi everyone. It's been a very very long time (like almost a year) since I have blogged on here. I don't know how many of you have stuck around but I thought I might update some of you on the new things in my life. I'm still living in the same place, across the street from the same job. However, I seem to be doing this job much better as I am bringing home over 2000 dollars a month. Despite this, I claimed bankruptcy in December as I was going under quite quickly. Better to get rid of it now than when I'm 40 and haven't had a chance to live my life.

 

I got a second cat in June of last year. His name is toby and for anyone who has seen him he is a darling on 4 legs. I'll post a couple pictures later so you can see my precious little man. Maggie was getting restless and had decided that I was a play ground at 4 am so I was always waking up bitchy. The minute I got Toby, Maggie instantly left me alone.She still hates him but he's a cuddler so I deal with it.

 

I'm still with Neil, who is the love of my life. Like all men he's a jerk at times and sometimes I may want to strangle him but he is good to me and helps me out when I need it. My valentines day present was a new computer (he was sick of fixing my old one) and my birthday present was a new camera which has since been broken.

 

No I did not break the camera on purpose...it fell 2 feet but LUCKILY landed on the lens and cracked it. A new one should be delivered on Monday in Pink.

 

I have decided that working in the travel and tourism business, it's probably best that I actually travel so this summer in July I will be heading to Edinburgh Scotland for 6 nights and 7 days, and then will be making my way to London England where I will stay for 3 nights and 3 days. While there I will be attending the 3rd concert in Michael Jacksons "This Is It" series which are his last shows to take place in London. He's not sure if he's touring again so this may be the last chance I have to see him live. Honestly, it wasn't my idea but I found Neil the tickets and this is how the trip to Scotland all got started. He's a HUGE MJ fan....kind of wierd actually.

 

Other than that things are good. Since I last updated I had 9 fish...5 have since died...well 3 I'm sure of. 2 kind of vanished. I think the other fish ate them.

 

I broke down and bought a wii and wii fit...both amazing pieces of technology and I am having lots of fun trying to be skinny.

 

Well, bye for now.

My Aquarium

Hi all, I just wanted to post some pictures of my new Aquarium . It has no fish yet but on Tuesday it will have a beta and some platies...then maybe in a few weeks I might add some mollies. It's 10 gallons and the start up was only 40 dollars for the kit but with the decorations, heater, bubbles and stones I spent about 140 dollars. It looks cool though. Also some pictures of my moo pants (ie maggie).
