Siiiiighh

The fortune cookies all lied.

Kirk was never home. Although I will keep trying until I find him home to ask him my question. He is my favorite pressman, even though he was a traitor and went to Dayshift. Can say that I blame him...if I had the chance, so would I! Anything to get away from Christina.

Carl....QUIT! However, he did give me his phone number a week ago so at the very least he considered me a friend that he would want to continue being friends with outside of work. He's been unhappy at work for months now, I'm actually a little surprised that he stayed on as long as he did. He was a "no call, no show" though and that doesn't strike me as normal for him. Maybe he was told last time [b/c of car trouble and no cell service] that if it happened again, not to bother to come in...who knows? We do live in a very hilly area where cell service is spotty in some places.

Christina was bitching about how it wasn't fair that she had to fly the inserter for the Daily when the supervisors all know that she has to leave at 3:30 so that she can get to her second job. Uhm.....cry me a freaking river! So what! This job should be her priority as it is the job she had first and is the full time job! Whatever. I hate how she feels entitled to getting out the door earlier than everybody else, like we all have to work to get her out in time. It's not about her! It's about getting the paper done on time! Even on Election night when things are running late b/c of the voting. Maybe especially then.

Hillary took PA. :( But then again, I've heard it speculated that if it came down to her and McCain that McCain would win. Although, I'm not ever sure I like that idea. No offense candidates...but you ALL SUCK this year. Maybe I'll run for president next term...I'll be old enough then {gag}. McKlinko didn't win, even though I voted for him. Hacket won, who I voted for...because his name rhymes with Racket and I figure he'll loose against Carney in the fall. I plan to vote for Carney, because he's the one official who I've emailed...that has actually emailed me back! And like, not SPAM {uh-hum, Hillary!}...or a stupid form reply....but a reply that addressed the issues I had wrote to him about. Unlike Smith who never replied at all...although he does usually post my comments on his blog so I'll give him half a point for that.

To explain the fortune cookie comment....we usually have Chinese food on Saturday nights at work. We all take great delight in reading our fortune cookies, and adding the phrase "in bed" to the end. I had some really great ones this past Saturday night. "You have had a good start. Work harder!" [in bed] "With a little more hard work, your creativity takes you to new heights!" [in bed] "You always know the right times to be assertive or to simply wait." [In bed] "No need to worry! You will always have everything that you need!" [in bed] Ok, it's a silly game, I know that. But when you've already put things into motion to get yourself in bed with a fella, it was kind of encouraging you know. Silly me. Still, I'm not gonna read any more stupid fortunes anytime soon. I might not even order Chinese unless I get laid here soon.

I suppose, enough moaning and bitching for one blog.

Star, it has it's moments! Though I bet there's more excitement uptown in editorial. All I do is wait for the pages they send me ... sometimes ... forever!!! :)

A Situation

Ok. I need to think out loud here for a bit while I wait on email. I have a situation going on that could become tough. A bit of background: About 2 years ago, a single man started coming to my church and showed an interest in me. It lasted about a month and a half, with him giving me mixed signals all the time...since I have been praying for a husband for a while now, at the time, it seemed like my prayers were being answered despite the confusion. It all came down one night about midnight in his parking lot and I haven't talked to him since. He only stayed around for another 7-8 months, and those were very hard months. He lied to me and mislead me, often. Like it was second nature for him. It was made even more traumatic by a discovery of mine on a website shortly after he left the area. In September 2005, I had a blind date that was far from fruitful. My singleness and desire to be married is known to all in church, and so... To the present: Yes, another single man has walked in

Types of Friends

The other night, the friend that I watch tv and movies with was sharing something she had learned from a MOPS meeting. About the two different types of friends. Since that discussion, I've realized that there are at least 2 more types of friends and goofball that I am, I thought I'd share it all with you! Don't you feel lucky and special? :) 1. Mushroom Friends : These friends spring up over night and are in our lives just for a season. Kind of like the friends I made in school. The season is way over as I didn't even get Christmas cards from them this year [yes, I sent them cards]. 2. Oak Tree Friends : These friendships develop slowly, starting out small and laying down deep root systems. They last forever no matter how far apart the friends grow; time, distance, oceans and death cannot break the bond of friendship. They are the kind that years after being out of communication, if they heard you were in trouble {death in family, illness, etc...} they would drop stuff

My Happy Face

There is something wrong in this world when they steal the magnetic smiley face off the back of your car. Which someone has done. But, I only rolled my eyes heavenward and said, "Whatever!" Must be the neighborhood kids were bored or something.
