8-3-10

I got back on my diet. I need to get this weight off that I gained back. I feel like a whale. I'm pretty sure I look like one, too. All you need to do is stick a blow hole in my head, and there ya go. I can't believe that I let myself go so much. I was looking DAMN good around September/October of last year, and then I stopped exercising, and my whole body goes to pot. Well, no more! I have to get back to where I was, and possibly even lower than that. I want my husband to look at me and have those cartoon eyes that pop out when he sees me. LOL! I started back yesterday, and I've already lost almost 2 pounds. To get back to where I was, I need to lose 24 pounds...well now, 22. But I'll get there. I think maybe I'll get there by October. I don't know. Depends on how much I exercise.

This weekend, my baby girl turns nine years old. God, where did the time go? I can't get over the fact that she's almost a whole decade old. I remember the day she was born like it was uesterday! Anyways, she's having a pool party for her friends. I'm making her cake look like the cover of a tigerbeat magazine. I think she'll love it. Also making monkey tails, chocolate covered bananas. I haven't decided what to eat yet....maybe just pizza? Fried chicken? What do you think? What do you think 9 year olds would eat? I have to cater to older people, too....so I am not really sure....


So, remember when I said that there couldn't possibly be anything worse than teaching ED at Libbey? Uh, yeah....I found it. I'll be teaching ED, ugh....AGAIN....at Scott this year. The actual being AT Scott isn't my issue. I don't mind being AT Scott. I don't want to teach ED. I can't STAND teaching ED. I can't. It's driving me crazy. The kids are horrible. BUT-at least at Scott, we switch kids between the 4 of us, and the classes aren't an hour and a half long like they were at Libbey. Block scheduling isn't bad for regular ed kids, but for ED kids, that is one hell of a long time to be putting up with something. They have very short attention spans. I'm praying that it won't be a horrid experience, and that I'll acclimate well....but I will still be looking in the School Line for other jobs, and if something shows up, I am 99% sure that I'll probably apply for it. So, if you're reading this....please please PLEASE say some prayers for me!!! I'm going to need them.

The Bachelorette-my view

Ok, so Ali's turn is here! She's back on the Bachelorette, and I have to say, ABC picked some la-hoo-sa-hers! Granted there are some nice guys in the group, some that I've already picked as favorites, but there a quite a few that I look at them and think some nasty, mean, and evil thoughts about! Here's my run down on it. This is only MY opinion, though...so if you don't like it, who the hell cares. Don't be posting your hate mail on my blog, stating your feelings. Because, frankly my dear, I couldn't give a damn.

1. Chris H-the Canadian. He's cute :) He's damn cute. A little TOO cute. He's like frat boy, bring home to mama cute. Somewhere down the line, that's gonna get him trouble...

2.Chris L-the landscaper, ex NYC teacher. I LOVE him! He's my favorite. I pegged him from moment one as one of those guys who will go far. He's a mama's boy, loves kids, lives on the beach, is loyal to his dog? What woman WOULDN'T want that???

3. Chris N-from Florida. His eyes creep me out. That's it in a nutshell. I don't do creepy. Next!

4. Craig M-Oh. My. God. And NOT in a good way. He's creepy as all hell! He stood half naked in front of his mirror and reponds to himself, "You're awesome." Um, no....you have a greasy Elvis bouffant, and you make fun of other guys on the first day there. You had one ugly ass outfit on, and you remind me of the guy with the scotch on the rocks who sits at the end of the bar, drinking himself into the oblivious slump because he's such a skeeve!

5. Craig R-the lawyer. I liked him! He kinda reminds me of Raymond's brother on Everybody loves Raymond. Awkward, yet cute in a weird sorta way. He was way up front with Ali, and ripped up Craig M. about the way he was acting. WTG, Craigers! I see him going pretty far, too.

6. Derek from Michigan-he lives very near to myself....yet he looks totally geeky and weird. Didn't like him. Glad he went home. Go back to playing Halo 4 in your mom's basement, Derek!

7. Derrick, AKA "Shooter"-WTF, man?!?!? Who the hell in their right mind would, on national television, admit to being a premature ejaculator? And you thought that would give you an edge on getting a rose? What the hell third dimension world do YOU live in???

8. Frank-I'm sorry....Frank, you're gay. You just don't know it yet. NEXT!

9. Hunter-the ukelele guy. I like him. He's quirky. I love quirky. I think Ali would, too. Did I mention to you that Ali and I would be besties if she would just acknowledge my existence? LOL

10. Jason-he was kinda quiet. Did he even get 1:1 time with Ali? There's your first mistake there, mister.

11. Jay-the personal injury lawyer. All I can say is, "Ew!" Greasy, skeevy hair. You sue people for a living. You're creepy all the way around. Plus, you need a haircut. Go back to the back page of your local telephone book.

12. Jesse-OMG, he's so adorable! Making that little wooden heart for her was THE perfect thing to do! Hell, if I wasn't married, he could come to Ohio and give ME a little wooden heart. He was too cute!

13. John C-"I hope this is one John you'll keep around" Is that the best you could come up with? Obviously, you need to go online and look up some charming pick up lines, because you suck. Go home! Plus, you need to wax your brows. They're a little "groverish."

14. John N-You're gay too, and just don't know it yet. Why don't you and Frank hook up?

15. Jonathon the weatherman-you are just a cheeseball. I think Ali is just keeping you around for shits and giggles. You won't be around long. It's cloudy with a chance of cheese. Bring your umbrella, because there's a 40% chance of light PARTicipation.

16. Justin the wrestler-I heart you, Justin! You are just adorable. You can be mean and impulsive, rated R even, when you need to be, but you melted like soft butter when you were around Ali. Now, if we could get you to get an actual j.o.b......

17. Kasey-you have stalker type tendencies. You need help. And speech lessons. Go home.

18. Kirk-HOTT! With two t's. I can't wait to see HIM with his shirt off! Who cares what his personality is like. We could just take him down off the pedestal when we need favors, and then put him back up, like a little cupid statue....

19. Kyle-you are odd and off beyond words and comprehension. You wear a bullet around your next and you give Ali a fishing hook? Wtf kind of drugs are you on? Thank God she saw that. Go make out with a bear.

20. Phil-you're an Ohio boy....I love you! So sweet and kind, kinda like a kiwi....tough on the outside and soft and squishy on the inside! I see good things in your future, young man!

21. Roberto-you've got it all the way, boy! You're going to be in the top 2 with Chris L, the landscaper. You had her as soon as you spoke Spanish to her. Very Ricky Ricardo-ish!

22. Steve-very boy next door like. Come mow my lawn. I think you're a cutie!

23. Ty-OMG, you're adorable! I heart you, too! sweet, gentlemanly, outdoorsy type. You're like Davey Crockett, but HOT!

24. Tyler M-you honestly look like you spend more time in the bathroom than most women, and for that, you need to go home. See ya!

and last but not least.....

25. Tyler V-I'm pretty sure you were that one geeky kid in high school who no one wanted to go to Prom with, and you went to school and became wickedly successful, just so you could punch everyone in the face at your reunion. Because I was like that, too....I commend you, and I'm rooting for you. Eventhough you're not as hot as the others....there's something oddly attractive about you!

So yeah...there's my take on the 25 guys Ali has to choose from. Take it or leave it. I can't wait to see who she ends up with in the end. God, I hope it's not creeper Craig M. I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit thinking of him...excuse me whilst I go brush my teeth.

The Bucket List

Everyone has one, whether it's written down or just inside their head. You know you do. The Bucket List. That list of things you want to do before you die. It's ok. I have one, too. And here is my bucket list. Now, granted...mine may not be the type of stuff that is going to change the world. It's basically a list of stupid things that amaze me, and that I want to do or accomplish before I kick that ever-inducing bucket. So, without any further ado....may I present, MY Bucket List:

1. To fly in a jet plane. Not a regular jet plane that carries people from point A to point B, but the type of jet plane that flies over the baseball field after the National Anthem has been played. The type of jet plane that, when you're in it, you have to wear an oxygen mask just to survive, and your face looks tighter than Joan Rivers after a spa treatment. The kind that makes that gigantic sonic boom in the air.

2. Go on a ghost hunt. I don't care who it is. I just want to go on a ghost hunt. I'm fascinated by that sort of stuff. I want to hear something, see something, feel something. I don't care. I just want to go. Is there anything wrong with that?

3. Along the same lines as #2, I would also like to speak to a person like John Edward, someone who speaks with the dead, to see if they can maybe make contact with my mom. I miss her so much, just knowing that she's around me and is with me would bring me such comfort and give me the closure I need. I didn't get to say good bye to her.

4. Quit my job and open up a bakery. Not just a doughnut and bread bakery, but a sweets shop. I wanna sell cakes, cookies, pies, and cream puffs. Brownies and fruit breads, and stuff like that. Both sugar filled AND sugar free! There are so many diabetics in the world....we derserve sweet stuff, too, Damnit!

5. Ride in a hot air balloon. I think that would be SO freeing to just be in a basket with a big old giant hot air balloon above you.

6. To travel to Greece. I want to see the Parthenon. I don't know why, I guess just to say I've been there and done that. I just think Greece is awesome.

7. I also want to go to Germany to visit my friend Christina, and to also go to Auschwitz. There's something so powerful and gut wrenching about being there. Along those same lines, I would like to go to Amsterdam, and see the hiding spot of Anne Frank. For the same reasons.


That's it for now...I'm sure as I get older, I'll add on to it. What are some things you have on YOUR bucket list???

BWAHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!

I just had to post this! I about pissed my pants while I watched this. I don't know whether it's just because it's funny, or it's funny because I teach in an inner city school, but OMG, did this crack me up!

Bein Venido, Betty Suarez!

Is it pathetic that I'm sorta sad that Ugly Betty is off the air? I mean, yeah, it got pretty hokey the past year or so, but I'm gonna miss Betty Suarez! I loved that show! I think I kind of related to Betty. Not in the fact that I worked for a high fashion magazine, and I was a young Mexican chick with braces and a parka....but in the fact that I am a woman on a mission. I know what I want, and I know I won't give up until I get it. I'm kinda stubborn that way. It's gotten me through life without too many scars so far, so I guess I won't complain...but I loved the fact that Betty didn't fit into the mold, but worked her way up through bitches and pretty people to make a name for herself. And the chick blogs! Granted it's not funny like mine, and she actually had some sustanence in her writings...unlike me who could write three or four pages on cheese, LOL!

OH! And I was just watching The Insider on tv, and they were showing that ABC is refusing to show a Lane Bryant ad for their bras and panties, saying it is too "risque" for the channel. Um, hellOOOO.....have you SEEN Dancing with the Stars? Edyta S. wears like an inch of material on each boob, and a half inch of material on her vajayjay! And they are saying a plus size model wearing a bra and panty covering EVERYTHING is too risque? Um, ok.... This pisses me off, majorly. As a big girl myself, I am completely offended by ABC because I just KNOW that they're doing it because the woman wearing it is a size 16....a supposed "plus size" model. I think she looks beautiful! They show Victoria Secret's ads. Why is it ok for THEM but not for Lane Bryant? It's because the girls are not as emaciated as the Victoria's Secret model. For God's sake, eat a fucking doughnut!!! Drink a slurpee and eat a fucking doughnut!

...and on that note...because apparently because I'm a bigger girl and it's all I'm allowed to wear, I'm going to go slip into a moo moo and man panties and seduce my husband!

Later Days!

Lazy much?

Ok, 1....I successfully watched 14 hours of Little House on the Prairie yesterday. How sad is that?!?!? And I totally didn't get my butt up off the couch unless it was absolutely necessary. It didn't help the situation that I had a sinus headache from hell all day yesterday. So, I guess 90% of my laziness could (and probably should) be blamed on that :P Sound good? I thought so! I even DVR'd the Disney ones so I could watch them when I woke up, which I just finished, and it's now 7:15AM, and I should be getting ready for work. Blah! Work. At least there's only 37 more days of work left before summer begins!

WA-HOO!!!!!!!!!

I am more excited than a fat kid in a sweets shop! I just scored some AWESOME seats to the Brad Paisley concert on June 4th! The tickets didn't go on sale until 10AM, so I was on that website at 9:59AM, waiting for it to turn from "More info" to "Purchase Tickets" at 10. As soon as it did, I put in 4 tickets, and best available, and I got seats real close to the stage! I'm so geeked! And yes, I said geeked! I really am! Darius Rucker is opening up for him, and I think I might be a little more excited to see Hootie than I am for Brad (as awesome as he is). Hootie is great! The reason I got four tickets is because our friends, Chuck and Dawn, will be coming with JB and I. They're just going to pay us back for the two tickets we got for them. That way, we'll be able to sit together.

I'm having a Pure Romance party this weekend. I'm excited to have a little get together for the lady friends. I'm making it a themed party. Everyone's gotta wear pajamas. That way, no one will have to worry about wearing anything fancy schmancy. Also, I'm making a penis shaped cake, complete with cream coming out of it, franks n' beans, cocktail WEINERS, assorted NUTS, BLOW pops, pixie STICKS, pretzel RODS, cheese BALLS, corkSCREW pasta, and SEX on the beach. :) It'll be fun. JB is taking the girls and dog, and headed out to camp with them for the weekend. It'll be my first weekend alone, without anyone. I honestly don't know exactly how to feel about that. On one hand, I'm like, "SWEET! I'm free!" as I never EVER get me time. But, on the other hand, I'm kinda nervous about it because I'll be alone, withOUT the dog. Last time I spent the night alone, I had at least the dog with me. But not this time. It'll just be me and the cats. I'm thinking I'll be sleeping with the tv on all night both nights. Hopefully, I'll get enough ladies to come and buy stuff that I can get a shitload of free stuff. The last time I had one, I think I spent fifteen dollars, which is over what I had in free money.

Well, I better get going. Have a lot of stuff to do today. Later Days!
