I've had a blog since September 2001. I'm a former nail tech, current un-published author, and mother to five children: three in heaven, two on earth. This is where I come to write about whatever's on my mind.

A little peeved
At least four girls on my facebook friends list are pregnant. I'm seriously considering deleting them. I just can't handle it any more. "Oops, look at this! Ha ha, I'm pregnant! I had no idea! We weren't even trying!" Vomit.
Don't listen to anyone who says that life is fair. It's not. There's good luck and bad luck. Some people just end up on the bad luck end of things.

Tornado
I had a wonderful dream last night. Why was it wonderful? I'm not sure. Me and a group of friends were at the beach and a hurricane was coming. (Well, because it was the shore, it should've been a hurricane,) but in my dream I saw a twister. We were standing really close to it and rain was pouring down, but people were still walking around and going about their business. Just as the twister was going to hit us, it dissipated. We started walking down the main street to a restaurant and we spotted another one. Hurriedly, we rushed into the nearest eatery (which was full) and were seated. I remember thinking, "The ocean is right at our back, we are in a lot of danger," but I wasn't scared. My ex-best friend was there and she ordered a strawberry margarita. I ordered one too (not to be out done) and the two other girls with us got ginger ale. The owner of the restaurant waited on us and he asked for our I.D. He made a comment that he was glad we were over 21 and not joking about the drinks because he'd have to go back to the kitchen and change the order and it gave them problems with their taxes (?). But our two friends left before the drinks came because they wanted to get somewhere safer. I looked around and saw everyone else eating normally in the restaurant and said, "We're safe here. This is the safest place. Everyone else is here because it's safe." They left anyway and I was stuck wondering what I was going to talk to my ex-bff about.
I seem to have a lot of dreams about her, actually. Where she'll call me up out of the blue and want to hang out. That's happened before, when we had our smaller fights. This dream was probably brought on by my seeing her facebook posts about being hungover and such...and she has a kid now.
I could punch someone. There's just so many things not right with the world. Everyone and their sister can get pregnant but me.

Touch of a cold
I have a touch of a cold...just a touch. Stuffy/runny nose and my throat was a tad sore. It's one of those things where it's hard to tell if it's a cold or really bad allergies. For me, there's not too much of a difference. I have been taking my generic Zyrtec, but I need to get to a pharmacy and pick up sudafed...the REAL stuff...that you have to swipe your I.D. to get. That's the only thing that opens my nose besides a Breath Rite, but I used my last one of those last night.
This is my week to take Damian to school again, so I'm dead tired. I had trouble getting him to go into the classroom today. After calling my mom a few times and Damian talking to her on my phone, we eventually got out of him that he was scared of the student who was greeting the kids at the door (his preschool is part of a high school child care class). I walked over to her, phone in hand, and asked her nicely to leave and let me give Damian the attendance stamp and just then these two official looking guys stopped me. One said (in a way too serious tone), "Why were you on your cell phone?" I was stupified. I was pointing to Damian and stammering; the student was trying to explain what was going on. Finally, the other guy with him was like, "Oh, are you a parent?" I laughed. They thought I was a student! I said, "Well, I'm not a parent, but I'm dropping my nephew off." They appologized, told me to take it as a compliment, and moved on.

Zomg...snore...
It's starting to rain. I was wondering why my joints were fighting with me yesterday and today. I'm so sleepy! Perfect nap weather! Plus, I haven't had any caffeine today.
The internet got shut off at our house. Apparently, I forgot to pay it for two months! Yay! Chris gets paid tomorrow, so we'll get it turned back on then. That + rent = not a lot of money left from his pay check. My next check (the day after my birthday no less) will go mostly to my car payment, hooray. Two more years. Just two more years to pay on the car and I'm done!
I came to the horrible realization yesterday that not only did I not pay the internet bill, I think we're a month behind on the water, gas, and I totally forgot all about my student loan payments. =| I signed some petition going around online to forgive everyone their student loans and now I'm on some Liberal emailing list. Oh well.
Don't even get me started on the medical bills I'm getting now. I had labs drawn and got three bills in the mail for them. Why do I even have health insurance? Annoying.
Thinking about doing my own Pinterest-image-do-it-yourself collage for painting your nails. (While I normally hate the "instructional" photo collages, I think I can make one that makes sense.) Some girls on there are posting pics of nail polish and they haven't even cleaned up around the cuticles. So, I figured I'd make my DIY thing for painting and then cleaning up around the nail.
Still go back and forth about declaring bankruptcy. I guess it takes like $900 (?) to do it. Well, if I had $900, I could pay off two of my credit cards and then only one would be left. Retarded.

Updates on my totally interesting life
Finally did something with my hair. Not sure if I mentioned that I dyed it black, but on my day off I walked to Holiday Hair and got layers put in. She also talked me into a conditioning treatment (it was on sale) and I bought a detangler, too. Even though I got it trimmed (and cut some shorter layers in it) everyone at work thinks it looks longer.
I went to Walmart yesterday and bought stuff I didn't need. Yay. Is there some kind of counseling for that? Anyway, I could've spent a lot more, but I kept putting things back. I put back some under eye cream (which I probably should've kept), nail polish, and various eye shadows (I'm scared to start using eye shadow! I don't know how to apply it!).
I tried to get rid of my BlackBerry. I called Verizon to see if they would let me upgrade early (tried to use the "my birthday is coming up" line, but they weren't having it). I found a couple cool phones on ebay and bid on them and at the very last second was outbid. So sad. Guess I'm stuck with my BB til Sept. or so. The chick at Verizon was like, "Oh, don't you like your BB?" and I said, "Try finding apps for a BB. 1 out of every 100 apps made is for BB. The rest are for iphone or Android." Stupid people with their stupid fancy, touch-screen phones. My BB doesn't even have a touch screen, people!
