Graffiti on the White Board…

August 27, 2010 By: gbu2 Category: Bad Behavior, family

This is my sister’s whiteboard. She likes to post chores on it for us and also likes to count down to stupid events, such as her upcoming vacations. That makes me NOT like her very much.

So, I leave her messages to show my disdain….

Ahhh nothing like a little subtlety to show your true feelings, no?

Back in the Saddle…

August 11, 2010 By: gbu2 Category: blogging

Well, folks, I think I am about ready to make a come back. I know it’s been awhile. A LONG while in fact. But, I have had some major life changes and basically had to take a break from here. I didn’t intend to be gone so long and I know you missed me….but I think, along the way, you got to meet my Sis….and get a feel for the crazy that is my family :)

 

BUT, on that note, I know you missed me! Just know, I am about to make my comeback…but go easy on me…it’s been awhile and it might take me awhile to get my sense of humor in full blast again!

 

And with that, I will plunge in again….are you ready for me? Did you miss me?

Just need a little magic thrown my way….

So I’ve decided after a little soul searching and a trip down memory lane…that I am not throwing the towel in…I will make my way out of the ABJ and back into a life that makes me feel alive.

Lately I have noticed that I feel like a half dead version of myself.  All day long I sit at a desk listening to idiots who DON’T listen to me…I swear I have to repeat information at LEAST three times…No our hours are 8-5….they are eight to five.  Yeah if you ask me a third time they still DON’T change! WOW!

Also people I don’t make the rules….I know I may have told you something else the first time, well then someone else gave me a new rule to follow so I do so.  Yes I know this isn’t how it worked last time.  I am sorry for the confusion but this is how it is NOW I am following what others tell me…you can look at me and ask me in as many different questioning sentences as possible I still will not change what I have to say.

 

I also love how people look at me and cock their head when I tell them my schedule….Really yes I know I work shitty hours that change ALL WEEK LONG –you don’t need to look at me like that to remind me.

Also please do not tell me “wow you have a college degree and you are doing this”

Do you want my death to be on your hands?  Because I can make that a possibility-don’t tempt me or fate for that matter.

Now here is the sick truth readers….I am thinking of going back to school.  I just can’t make the decision for certain if that is what I should do because let’s face it I have bills and at least have to pretend to be an adult and I really am not sure how good of a multi- tasker I am.  But it’s an idea I’ve been throwing around my head….I would love to have a masters degree….and I like school so it seems like a win, win situation.  I just have to solidify myself on what I want to be when I grow up because let’s face it there is a difference between what I think would be a awesome job and what could actually make its way to reality. 

 

Also I miss my creative endeavors that made me feel like me…I miss dancing…and acting…and hanging out with friends…..i miss writing more than I do currently and I really want to love what I do…so I decided every night I need to put some time to these uses..whether that be exercising, blogging, or job searching it will be done….Wish me luck!

Bro in law: So, I hear you are sad. Did you download Monopoly on your iphone?

Me: No, not yet. I wasn’t sure about it.

Bro in law: Well, you should…you can play me and Sar!

Me: Uh….dunno

Bro in law:  I HEAR the hesitation in your voice! Is it because Sar cheats?

Me: YES! I am gonna tell on you! Total blog material.

Bro in law: LOL, of course you know I gave you material just to make you happy.

Me: Uh huh…sure even if you’ll get YELLED at??

Bro in law: Sure. Why not. LOL.

Me: Dangerous

 

Minutes pass…..

Bro in law: So that’s it you aren’t gonna talk to me anymore?

Me: Eh. You’re needy.

Bro in law: whatever. Rae laughed at me.

Me: Cause it’s TRUE.

Bro in law: So…

 

And that, my friends, is why I LOVE my family ;)
Sometimes they CAN cheer me up….

Secret Santa…

The Night Before Christmas

Me: Let’s go rent the new Super Mario wii game!

Hubby: Well, this is a small town, we probably won’t be able to find it because it will already be all out everywhere!

Me: Fine, then we will buy it!

Hubby: Alright, but I don’t think you will be able to find it…

 

20 minutes later after trudging through the only Blockbuster in town and then Walmart….

Me: Sad day! It is nowhere to be found!

Hubby: I told you….I knew we wouldn’t be able to find it….

Me: Let’s try Target! Last try!

Hubby: SIGH. Ok.

Me: I FOUND IT!

Hubby (steering me away): Ummm maybe you had better wait to see what Santa brought you!

Me: BUT we aren’t doing Christmas this year!!!

Hubby: Well, you never know!

Me: OK! YAY! Give it to me now!!!!

Dear Land of Far, Far Away:

 

I would appreciate if you’d stop crapping white stuff ALL OVER THE PLACE. Cause I.DON’T.LIKE.IT!

 

At this point I can barely find my car! Does this mean I get out of work? I’m thinking that’s not a viable excuse…is it?

 

Thanks,

The Aniti-Snow Girl

 

Other snow conversations…

Hubby: You really need to learn how to enjoy the snow. Want to make a snowman?

Me: No, I don’t DO cold weather.

Hubby: You’re dumb.

Rae: This year doesn’t feel like Christmas.

Me: I know!

Rae: How come you feel that way?

Me: Well, last year there was no snow and I was STILL wearing flip flops…can’t beat that!

Me: It’s cold!

Sar: Oh, not here. I don’t have a snowflake in my smart car. When it’s cold here I get a snowflake!

Me: You are DUMB.

Sar: My car says it’s 74 here today. :)

Me: DIE.

December 04, 2009 By: gbu2 Category: Bad Behavior, moving

So, my sister informed me today that she feels out of touch since I have fallen behind in my blogging. BUT, in my defense, I HAVE been traveling!

 

My dad and I made it to the land of Far, Far Away last night. It was the LONGEST. TRIP. EVER. But, we made it in one piece and made it without killing each other….barely.

The DRIVE that is…..the drive out to the land of far, far away.  Luckily, my dad will be with me, so we should make ok time. If I was on my own, we wouldn’t make it out of this state!

 

So, the car’s all loaded. The pod’s being picked up this morning. And it is almost time to hit the road. For 4 days….EH.

 

Are we there yet? First stop on this wonderful journey is a quick visit to Hacim.

 

PS Today’s the shortest day…..my Dad is in for it, huh? :)
