Five things

My bloggy friend Knatolee from up North tagged me so here it goes...

What was I doing 10 years ago?

Ten years ago I was still single. Living in an apartment with my kitty C-girl. Going out all the time and using the credit card all the time (which is why I’m so busy cleaning it up now)


Five snacks I enjoy:
{Do I have to narrow it down?}
(1) I really enjoy just about any candy, which is not good
(2) Baskin Robbins has this delightful “Rock ‘n Pop Swirl Sherbert”. It used to only come out when a Shrek movie came out but they finally added it to their menu. Unfortunately for me I don’t have a Baskin Robbins close by
(3) Lemon Meringue pie
(4) Cherries
(5) Cotton Candy


Five Things on My To-Do list today:
{today is almost over so I’m going to make up my to do list for tomorrow}
(1) balance checkbook
(2) pay bills
(3) go grocery shopping
(4) mow lawn (at least the front yard so HOA doesn’t say anything)
(5) walk dog

Five Things I would do if I were a billionaire:
(2) Pay off house, cars and credit card bills
(3) Give some to family and close friends
(4) Buy a nice log cabin with lots of land in Colorado
(5) Take some nice vacations

Five jobs I have had:
(1) Worked in the concession stands, mostly cotton candy (see why it’s a favorite snack?), at an amusement park where I grew up
(2) Did one season at a firework stand
(3) telemarketer - only a few weeks, I think everyone has experienced this just once
(4) Ran a video store
(5) Instructional Designer (write training materials)

Five of my bad habits:
(1) Worrying
(2) picking at my face
(3) stealing really cool glasses from restaurants (haven’t done it in a long time though)
(4) napping instead of doing much needed work in the house or in the yard
(5) telling my husband how to drive - figured he would like that one added ;-)

Five places I have lived:
(1) Amarillo, TX
(2) Dallas, TX
{sorry no others, not that well lived}

Five people I would like to get to know better (yes, this means you are tagged!):
(3) Lara
(5) any other random blogger who stops by and would like to play

Five Random Things:
(1) My tummy doesn’t feel good
(2) Had a nice nap this afternoon :-)
(3) Glad I’m not too stupid to have sex at my job, see this post
(4) Wish my dog would stop escaping out of the back yard. I thought she was done with this bad habit
(5) Getting my hair cut tomorrow and I CAN’T WAIT!!!

You did what?

I found out something a bit interesting, no wait frightening, that happened at work last week. There were two people involved, we'll give the girl the name Janet (as in the Janet from the Rocky Horror Picture Show - "dammit Janet you slut") and the guy will be named Mitch.

One evening on the work floor of the envelope stuffing company Janet and Mitch, whom are dating, decided they just couldn't wait till after work to get together. So right there on the floor they decided to get a little busy. Not completely all the way Mitch just used his fingers. Janet, did however, get completely satisfied!

They didn't try to hide and a few people witnessed this unspeakable act at work. I mean what were they thinking? Take a break and run to a motel around the corner I'm sure they'll let you pay by the hour.

Oh, and they're still employed. Just a final warning. So I guess its okay to "just do it" once.

What a Great Weekend!

I've had a really enjoyable weekend!

Thursday evening we spent with the Computer Diva and Z. We car pooled to Addison to watch thier famous Kaboomtown 4th of July firework display. We set up in some shade (thankfully) and enjoyed the fabulous air show. I'm not sure what type of plane this one we saw was but it was a type of bomber and it came swooping down real low so you could get a great view of it. Of course this is the time we forgot to bring our camera!! sheesh! We continued to enjoy the air show up until it started getting dark. Then we noticed another plane up there but that's a bit wierd cause you can't really see it. But then the coolest thing I've seen. It started dispensing sparklers (best way to explain it) and flying upside down and everything. Then it started to (as Mr. M said) tooting fireworks out. Every now and then it let out some fireworks. I've never seen that before out of all the years I've been to Kaboomtown. Now on to the fireworks. They do them to music and this year was a bit disappointing. They were a little close to the ground and some of the music was something you would hear every day on the radio as opposed to patriotic music. It was still an enjoyable night.

However on the way home we received a phone call from a neighbor down the street telling us they had our dog. Sigh. M&M evidently dug a hole under our neighbors fence and then from there got out. Mr. M even mentioned earlier in the evening that he had a feeling she was getting out that night.

Friday, July 4th. We went to CD and Z's house for some burgers and brats. One of his neighbors had some black cats and let us play with some. Then a few of us decided to run to the firework stand and purchase a few things of our own. We did have one minor injury but all is well. Enjoyed watching us fire off some fireworks and watching all the others that were being done in the neighborhood. (We kept M&M inside the house because of the night before and in the event any of our neighbors did any fireworks we knew that would scare her)

Saturday. Mr. M and I went to breakfast and then went to watch Will Smith's Hancock. That evening we went to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the UFC fight. Luckily we got there early cause it gets to be standing room only.

M&M wanted to sleep outside last night so I left her out. I woke up about 6:30 this morning to see if she wanted to come back in and she was gone again. I woke up Mr. M and I got dressed and hopped in the car and drove around the neighborhood. Mr. M called me to let me know that he had her. He thought he heard something outside the house and looked out the window and saw her laying in our nieghbors yard. He opened the door and told her in a nice fun way "come inside" and she came running in. Luckily we found her this way cause she was missing her collar. We later found it next to the new hole under the fence. Again sigh.

So minus a few glitches we've really enjoyed our weekend.

Pregnant?

My desk in my study is next to our window and it overlooks a rental "garage". Everytime there are new tenants there who smoke outside I can see them. Well there's one chick who lives there now who comes out to smoke and she is a little large.

This is one of those times that I'm hoping she's just a large lady because she kind of looks round like a pregnant woman would. I REALLY hope she's not pregnant and smoking. Because if she's pregnant she looks like she's about to bust - unless she has more than one in there.

July already?

I can not believe it's July already. And it's starting to get so hot already.

I've been so neglecting my yard though this year. Havent' been in the mood to mow and it hasn't been weed eated since it started turning green again.

I desperately need to do some major watering between now and Friday. With as dry as its been I don't want to worry about any of our neighbors doing fireworks and one of those nice hot bottle rockets landing in my yard and starting a fire. Oh its after 6pm I guess I can go ahead and set it up.
