I Want My Mommy!!!

I miss my parents. They've been super busy. Well, Moms has been, working for the company she works for. Pops is living on TV dinners, and I'm, well, in pain, and TRYING to get busy going through shit so I don't have to stress about the move. And the packing. OH, the packing. Moving sucks, even though it IS within the same apartment complex. I got to talk to Pops tonight, and it was fun. No matter what, FLOYD DAY is ON in June, as is the "Pink Floyd Experience" in April. Livin' LIFE!!!

Then there's the upcoming surgery. I'm moving the week before, so I'll be coming home from the hospital/"hospice-at-the-'rent's" to boxes of stuff to be unpacked. My best friend and I haven't spoken in over 6 months, so that's not an option. Not that I haven't made the attempt to make amends. LUCKILY, I have "manly" volunteers from work to move all my big stuff, and I will have 4-6 weeks to "gingerly" go through boxes. Not to mention I'm taking a few days off at the end of next month so I can move some carloads and at least get the kitchen and bathroom set up. These two rooms are HUGE things for a female. GINORMOUS!

Can I have my morphine drip NOW, please? Do I REALLY have to go through this one more time before it's all over? Whomever out there has the voodoo doll, seriously...VERY FUNNY. Now take out the fucking pins, okay?

Luv,
Lady K

So...Well...

Mondays suck. Period. Pun TOTALLY intended.

Cramps suck. These and one more set ought to seal the deal, as surgery is scheduled for May 1. This is all pending approval from the insurance company, but hey, last time I was with them they were all for it.

I've got some really cool pics of the sky, some crabcakes I made, and a mug of beer from a growler we took home from dinner at Rock Bottom Sunday night...when I heat up the ribs I brought home, I'll DEFINITELY take pics, they were to DELECTABLE!Vanilla Sky, on the "parkbench" outside at work! (P.S. the same-named movie kicked my ass again over the weekend. Seen it a few times and STILL can't wrap my mind around it.)"Yeah, I want some crabby cakes!" Home-made chipotle mayo, too, yo! YUM!

Sky outside the restaurant Sunday. Sunsets this time of year are REALLY sweet.

And, finally, what could be better than a "Raptor Red" beer and "good times" after a sweet dinner like that? OH YEAH! Mickey Mouse brings it all home. This is my favorite mug!

I must admit, I was a little hungover, but having dinner all paid for by the company in appreciation for my hard work was worth dealing with a little discomfort the next day.

Happy Tuesday, kids!

"You have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have been found wanting..."

I don't know of anyone who loves this clip from "A Knight's Tale" any more than I do. (yep, that was on PURPOSE.)

I was corrected for broken grammar tonight, and decided it better to lock the door in his face rather than pound it with whichever (whatever? proper grammar here?) instrument served worthy of beating his nose (or his NUTS). I'm sure both would have been horribly wrong and landed me in jail.

Neither here NOR THERE, I was PISSED OFF as HELL.

And so I say, "I FART in your GENERAL DIRECTION!"

ANYWAY!

Today it was at least 85 degrees! Pretty typical of March down here, but I still think there may be more "chilly" weather. By chilly, I mean 60's-70's. I know a lot of you are cursing me right now, but for me anything below 80 is "sweater weather." LOL! Deal. Try 120.

(Insert current rant about work here.)

Surgery is being rescheduled for early MAY, so I can get moved, settled, and all that happy combobulation. Someone's not happy about that, but like I said, #1 must be happy and given a good pre/post recovery. End of discussion. The song, "Mr. Big Stuff" comes to mind. Whatever.

Hope you peeps have a GREAT weekend.

End with a REALLY cool pic. She is SUCH a cutie. It WAS cold the other day. Go figure. Weather in AZ is wonky this time of year... This was "laundry day."

"You woke me up for THIS?"

Happy Friday, kiddos. Really.

To Everything, Turn, Turn, Turn...

Holy crap! Life's been a whirlwind the last few days. The perfume dealio at work, trying to figure out what to do about the "big move," and scheduled surgery.

Oh yeah, they got it scheduled for April 10, pending insurance approval (here we go again). TWO WEEKS before I'm due to move into a one-bedroom in the same complex. (Different area, best thing for me right now, and WAY cheaper.)

Stress is high, and I really need to sit down with the complex to see about my options. Can I sign for 6 months at the "higher" rent and THEN get into the cheaper place for said cheaper cost? Should I just postpone surgery till AFTER I move? Will the new doc be available to postpone the operation? Good thing I'm not a nail-biter.

B/F wants me to stay put and to move in, but I am just not ready to go down that road again. I really hope he understands, but I know his level of disappointment is GRANDE.

I gotta look out for #1 here, that's the main thing, and have to think that the less stress before AND after this operation would expedite my recovery time. The faster I can get back to work, the better. That's HALF my stress level, right there. Who KNOWS what havoc will be wreaked while I'm gone...

The crud is going around the office, and I woke up with it. I'm fighting like a champ not to let it take me down. I have bigger fish to fry, not to mention an anniversary coming that I really don't want to face. Chicken soup isn't just good for the body, it's good for the soul, too...

Hope everyone has a Happy HNT. God BLESS you, PUD, whatever hell you're experiencing with those assplugs over there. I'll walk around FULL MONTY just for you. I'll even keep the blinds open! ha ha!

Luv,
Lady K

Aww nah She Di'nn't!!!

I worked from home all day Monday. Oh, yes I DID. I have ASKED the person from the office NOT to wear the cologne TO the office TWICE. Is there a chance of getting laid there? Um. NO.

Does she continue to wear it? Yeah.

It was all I could do to breathe. I was only there an hour.

Anyway, I got a lot done, at HOME! More than I would have, given the environment I was handed when that chick showed up. I even had to take 1/2 sick day, which really sucks. Can you say, "hostile work envornment?" I SO don't mean "hostile" on my part. Well, maybe I am, a little...

Happy Tuesday. Hopefully the air will be clear when I go in.

ZODIAC

I went to see this movie when it came out Friday night...all I can say is HOLY SHIT. And yeah, I really did have nightmares all night, but that's not stopping me from seeing any OTHER "thrillers"...mwa-ha-ha!

It's DEFINITELY worth the $10 to see it on the big screen!!!!! Albeit a little slow, it's worth paying some attention and perhaps doing your own research to the actual case. I happened to do that, but STILL had someone constantly leaning over telling me what was gonna happen PLUS give me the NAMES of the people AND what the "police reports" said and...and....and...."

AAAHHHH!!! Pa-LEASE!!!. I absolutely HATE that during a movie. I almost got up and moved. I don't go to the movies for that shit. SHUT...THE...FUCK...UP!!! Even if I've SEEN a movie and people ASK me what's gonna happen, I just shrug and say, "SHH! Just WATCH!"

Anyway! The movie was INTENSE. SLOW, for obvious critical historical reasons, but intense just the same. Jake Gyllenhaal and Rob Lowe did a tremendous job, as did the rest of the cast!


And the beat goes on, doesn't it? We read about this shit in the paper and see it in the news every day. We just caught a serial killer down here. Scares the shit out of me every day.

On a lighter note!!

Unbelieveable pic from the other day. HAD to share.

Happy Monday!

Luv,

Lady K

I LOVE the Internet!

REALLY!

Thanks to Shanru's wonderful, COOL (albeit split, ha ha) link to NBC'S "REWIND" thing, I finally got to watch this week's episode of Heroes, with VERY LIMITED commercial interruptions! (Yeah, they gotta pay for airing it on the net somehow!)

All I can say is "WOW." And....HOLY CRAP! For those of you who haven't been watching, you're really missing out on something cool, if you're into this sort of supernatural shit. Novak, I know I have two strikes now, with the whole Genesis thing and all. Don't hate me because I'm beautiful!

Tuesday nite I didn't sleep a wink. Okay, MAYBE I got an hour of catnapping in here and there, but still. Lack of REM sleep weighs on ya. I can't turn my mind off, so last night I had a cocktail and took a Tylenol PM. Bad idea. Thank GOD for my inner alarm clock, or I'd probably still be sleeping. Let me tell ya, I was pretty much comatose from about 7:30pm till 6 this morning. My couch is pretty damn comfortable, I must say! GLORIOUS! I'm groggy, but I woke up STARVING, and waking up over an hour early gives me enough time to toast a bagel. Hell, I might even make some eggs.

Too bad I have to go into work and listen to the music from up front and listen to the singing, and ask her to turn it down 4 times a day. It really sucks when you have to crunch numbers, the distraction is unnerving and quite annoying. Thank God for my headphones, otherwise I'd be one postal bitch. I hear lots of complaints about the shit, but nobody seems to have the stones to do anything about it. I've been sworn to "bite my tongue."

Happy HNT! I can't wait to get more sleep...
