MERRY CHRISTMAS

HELLO FELLOW BLOGGERS! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL! I WAS GOING TO PUT A PICTURE OF SANTA ON MY BLOG, BUT THEN I REALIZED THAT I WOULD JUST BE COMMERCIALIZING CHRISTMAS JUST LIKE THE REST OF THEM! SO HERE IS SOME PICTURES OF JESUS---BECAUSE CHRISTMAS IS ABOUT THE BIRTH OF CHIRST, NOT ABOUT THAT FAT, WHITE HAIRED GUY THAT FLIES AROUND PASSING OUT PRESENTS TO ALL THE LITTLE BOYS AND GIRLS.....DON'T GET ME WRONG, I DON'T HAVY ANYTHING AGAINST SANTA, BUT I FIGURED IF I'M GOING TO WRITE AN ODE TO CHRISTMAS, I MIGHT AS WELL HAVE A PICTURE OF WHO ITS ACTUALLY ABOUT! ANYWAY....MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOURS, AND A HAPPY HANUKKAH FOR ALL THE JEWS OUT THERE. DID YOU KNOW THAT JESUS WAS A JEW? AND HAPPY KWANZAA TO THOSE OF YOU WHO CELEBRATE THAT, AND TO WHOM EVER ELSE OUT THERE THAT HAS A SPECIFIC HOLIDAY THAT THEY CELEBRATE THIS TIME OF YEAR, HAPPY WHATEVER, AND HAVE A WONDERFUL NEW YEAR TOO! OKAY, I THINK I COVERED EVERYONE. IN GREEK I'LL SAY, "KALA KRISTOUYENA" AND IN SPANIS I'LL SAY "FELIZ NAVIDAD" AND THATS ALL THE LANGUAGES I KNOW, SO SORRY TO THE REST OF YOU! THAT JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU SHOULD EITHER BE GREEK OR HISPANIC! (JUST KIDDING) YOU SHOULD JUST BE GREEK....I'M KIDDING AGAIN PEOPLE, COME ON...I THOUGHT YOU'D KNOW ME BETTER BY NOW. HONESTLY THOUGH, I HOPE ALL OF YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY SEASON, AND EVEN THOUGH WE'LL BE SPENDING TIME WITH PEOPLE WE DON'T REALLY LIKE, BUT HAVE TO SEE AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR,(OR 3 OR 4 TIMES...) MAKE THE BEST OF IT! IT COULD BE WORSE, AND SOMETIMES IT IS...SO BE THANKFUL FOR WHAT YOU HAVE,(LOVING FAMILY AND FREINDS) BE GLAD FOR WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE (SUCH AS HEPITITIS B-AND FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DO, SORRY!) AND JUST BE HAPPY THAT THIS TIME OF YEAR ONLY COMES AROUND ONCE, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO INVEST SO MUCH TIME DRESSING NICE AND PRETENDING TO GET ALONG WITH PEOPLE WHO YOU DON'T REALLY GET ALONG WITH! I'M SURE MOST OF YOU HAVE REALIZED BY NOW THAT THIS ENTIRE BLOG ENTRY IS FOCUSED AROUND ME AND WHAT I HAVE TO DO DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON....BUT OF COURSE IT DOES. I'M FEELING VERY SELFISH AND SELF LOATHING RIGHT AT THE MOMENT, AND FOR FUCKS SAKE THIS IS MY BLOG AND IF I WANT TO BASH MY SELF I DAMN WELL CAN AND THERE ISN'T A BUTT PLUGGING THING YOU OR ANYONE ELSE CAN DO ABOUT IT!!!! WELL, DON'T I FEEL BETTER NOW! FOR ANYONE WHO MIGHT BE NEW TO MY BLOG, TODAY PROBABLY WASN'T THE BEST DAY TO START READING...BUT THIS IS HOWEVER GOING TO BE THE VERY LAST ENTRY UNTIL THE NEW YEAR, SO YOU ONLY HAVE GOOD THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD TO FROM NOW ON!!! OK, HAPPY HOLIDAYS - FRO WISHING YOU AND YOURS A MERRY CHRISTMAS, HANUKKAH, KWANZAA- AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TOO! EAT TOO MUCH, AND SLEEP ALOT. I HOPE JESUS BRINGS YOU EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED! CAUSE ALL HE EVER WANTED WAS TO DIE FOR OUR SINS! SEASON'S GREETINGS!

WASN'T LONG ENOUGH THOUGH. I MISS HER AND I MISS VISITING HER IN FLORIDA! I WISH I LIKED AIRPLANES, AND I WISH I HAD LOTS OF MONEY AND DIDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT. I WISH I HAD THE DEED, AND I WISH I HAD STRAIGHT HAIR. NO, SCRATCH THAT...I LIKE MY HAIR. SO, TODAY IS WEDNESDAY, AND THAT MEANS ITS ALMOST XMAS TIME. AND THAT ALSO MEANS ITS ALMOST THE END OF 2006. A NEW YEAR WILL BEGIN AND THAT MEANS A NEW BEGINING FOR A LOT OF THINGS! LOTS OF STUFF ENDING AND LOTS OF STUFF BEGINING! CHECK OUT ROUGH OLIVE'S FLICKR ACCOUNT CAUSE THERE ARE LOTS OF GREAT PICS ON THERE TO MAKE YOU THINK! WELL, AS GLAD AS I AM THAT TAR TAR CAME TO OHIO, I WISH THAT I WOULD HAVE WENT TO FLORIDA. I REALLY REALLY MISS IT NOW, AND NOT JUST THE STATE, BUT TAR'S HOUSE, AND CATS, AND PORCH AND THE SMELL IN THE AIR.... ALL OF IT. AND OF COURSE MANOLO! HI MANOLO!! SO, HOPEFULLY I'LL BE ABLE TO PAY BACK TAR TAR AND COME DOWN TO FLORIDIA AND BRING HER HER SWEATER (WHICH I FULLY INTEND ON WEARING AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE!) SIGNING OUT....FRO

home sweet home

so, here we are. monday afternoon...the weekend is over. it was a great weekend though! we all had a wonderful time, and i'm greatful for it! of course it does suck because we are all going to miss tar tar until we see each other again. hopefully that will be sooner rather than later. sage loved every moment of this weekend! we got to decorate the tree together, and eat food 8 times a day...go xmas shopping! it was time well spent! good news is tar tar left her sweater at my house! i'm enjoying it! (i promise i'll give it back) the bad news is when i went home at lunch i opened the fridge and the REAL parm cheese from sun rise ($4.50) fell out of the fridge and onto the floor. apparently it wasn't closed all the way. oh well! so, one week till xmas and i'm sending my cards today! have a wonderful week! love fro

nice ass!

hey, look at that ass! anyway...its thursday today, and i just love it, cause that means that tomarrow is friday and tar tar is coming!! i am so freakin tired! i feel like i could sleep for a week. my boobs are huge also! this is only the begining! well, for those of you who don't like to count down to things, there are only 10 days till chirstmas!! so you better not pout, you better not cry, you better watch out i'm tellin you why...santa fro is coming to town!!!! hahahahahahaha so i took a pic of sage and bakka for the xmas cards. well it just so happens that i took that pic on my 1 gazilla bite mem card. so i had a mental struggle at sams club yesturday attempting to just print that one pic. (at 17 cents a pic its a great deal, but when you have to print 808 pictures....it adds up) so for whatever reason the freakin machine wouldn't let me select that one pic. (it was probably about to expload with the amount of pics if had to process! the screen kept changing color too...) so in the heat of the moment, frustration took over, so i clicked on "print all" and now if i want to make a nice christmas pic for my cards (which need to be sent like today) i have to spend a whole bunch of money on my pics (you do the math) so today i attempted to burn that one pic to a disk, and take that disk with the one pic to sams club, and print it out and make my nice decorative xmas picture for my cards!!!! we'll see how this goes. maybe i won't send a pic this year! on a lighter note, its almost time to leave work, which means its that much closer to friday!! and i went to google blog search, and my blog came up on the first page!!! i was really excited and happy all at once! if i just go to google however, nothing comes up about my blog! such is life! lets see if my little shanny poo has been reading my blog...shanny, i called you repetedly yesturday to no avail... it is imperative that you call me today or else! i have many things to discuss with you! tomarrow is friday and i need to know if you are planning on coming to the house with us, if so you must come with us to pick up sage from school! call me now, or i will drive to kent and kick your booty!!!! and how come manny doesn't read my blog anymore? manolo...are you out there??? i miss your comments! tell the familia i said hola!!! and tar tar...see you tomarrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

memories...

well, what a lovely picture! this just happens to be one of my favorite tree's in the whole world! it hurts my heart to look at this picture because i know it will be longer than i expect before i get to look at this tree in peron. i remember the very first year we came to florida! those little plant shrub things around the tree were very small, and every time since then that we've been to florida, those things get bigger and bigger!! i can't imagine how big they'll be by the time i see them again! i make it sound like it'll be years and years, when hopefully it will only be just years... well, i don't know...i love florida and that's all i've got to say about that. oh, and i bet chubakka will love it too! speaking of chubakka....she's been acting different lately, and i know its cause her sister is gone. but i don't want to leave her alone for christmas! my mom is having her christmas dinner on 12/23 so that sage can come (since she's with her dad on xmas this year) so i asked my mom if chubakka can come! for those of you who know my mom and frank, you can understand that this would be a very dangerous question to ask. well, as per usual my mom's responses and reply's have been nothing but her norm. she seemed okay with it, but i have to clear it through frank first!!! well, of course frank is on a business trip and won't be back untill two weeks or something....so my mom says "call him" so i did. and to my surprise, he seemed kinda okay with it. at first wanting her to stay in the garage. i explained that we wouldn't even bring her if that were the case cause she would be sad, and wouldn't understand why she'd have to stay out there. so here's my mom to me, "ask him, what about the basement?" i almost crapped my self! is my mom actually pulling for chubakka to come to dinner?? in her very own house no less?? i was shocked. frank on the other end of the line is laughing and saying things like, "oh really? hahaha haha hahaha" so i said, "you don't have to answer me right now, you can think about it and call me back!" so that's where i left it! woulnd't that be some shit?! i think he's gonna say yes! chubakka would love it! (and so would i) tar tar will be here soon, and xmas in only 12 days away counting today!!! holy poop!!

who's your buddy?

AS SOME OF YOU MAY KNOW, I HAPPEN TO BE A VERY BIG KEVIN SMITH FAN. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DO NOT KNOW THIS, SHAME ON YOU! ANYWAY, RECENTLY (EARLY XMAS GIFT) I PURCHASED 'CLERKS 2'. I LOVE THIS MOVIE! KEVIN SMITH IS A GENIOUS!! THIS MOVIE WAS GREAT ON SO MANY LEVELS, IT WOULD TAKE DAYS TO EXPLAIN IT ALL, BUT WHAT THE HELL-I'LL TRY. SO, FIRST OF ALL, IT WAS THE FUNNIEST FUCKING MOVIE I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE! I ALMOST PEE'D MY SELF WHILE WATCHING IT! AND IT JUST GETS FUNNIER THE MORE TIMES YOU WATCH IT! (3 TIMES SO FAR). ONE OF THE GREATEST THINGS ABOUT KEVIN SMITH AND HIS MOVIES IS HOW HE TIES THEM ALL TOGETHER! I LOVE THE REFERENCES TO THE OTHER MOVIES!! (ONLY TRUE FANS WOULD UNDERSTAND HALF OF THESE) ALSO, THIS MOVIE ADDED SOME CLOSURE FOR US ALL! FOR THOSE WHO HAVN'T SEEN IT YET (AND YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE, AND YOU KNOW YOU'LL BE WATCHING IT ON SLUMBER PARTY NIGHT!!!!) I WON'T GIVE IT AWAY, BUT I DID SHED A TEAR AT THE END, CAUSE IT JUST MADE ME SO FREAKIN HAPPY!!! I COULD GO ON AND ON, BUT I'LL SAVE MY RANTS FOR AFTER THE MOVIE GIRLS!!! SO, HATS OFF TO KEVIN SMITH FOR BEING THE BEST WRITER/DIRECTOR OF ALL TIME! I'D LIKE TO CALL HIM THE GEORGE LUCAS OF OUR TIME! (BUT BETTER) SO, TO THOSE OF YOU WHO DO NOT LIKE THESE MOVIES....(INSERT BAD WORD HERE) TO EACH HIS OWN, BUT I LOVE THESE MOVIES, AND CLERKS 2 IS NOW MY NEW FAVORITE!!! THANK YOU, AND HAVE A NICE DAY!

...what the eff...

hello to all! no, this is not a picture of my fetus, but a picture of A fetus. i don't think my baby is this big yet either. i hope this doen't gross anyone out, but it is a wonderful and beautiful thing! so far my pregnancy is going good! i'm 7 weeks today!!!! if i had two babies, together they would fit inside the cap of a 2 liter bottle. crazy isn't it? so far i have to pee like every 30 minutes, and i'm really tired. i feel sick sometimes, but havn't actually thrown up yet. and i emphasize YET! i'm a fat ass too by the way! but its cool! okay, i'm hungry, i'll see you on the flip side!

humor me...please

as some of you may know, a certain someone is no longer working in my office. i won't go into detail, in fact i won't say anything more about it! so today for lunch i was really wanting to have a bread bowl salad from pizza works! they are great salads! the best part of course is the bowl, cause its made out of bread! why waste a bowl when you can eat it! i love my bread!!! so i was on my way home to let bakka-chu out and i passed brother's pizza! i don't think i smelled it (i very well could have though) but i was like, "oh my gosh, i want a chicken & cheese sub with some french fries, and some mayo and a side of sauce!!!" so thats what i had, and i ate the whole freakin thing (except the few small pieces i let keystone eat) i wasn't likin the fries as much as i was hoping... so anyway, i don't know how i'm supposed to get more people to read this shit, but i wish i could! maybe not though. its like the famous person who wished they were more famouse, and then all of the sudden they can't take a piss with out someone waiting outside the stahl for an autograph. (at least that's what EMINEM said) so maybe i wouldn't like it if more people read my blog...maybe they wouldn't like it and would leave me hate comments and stuff. but since when do i give a fuckaroonie what other people think? besides, its not like i'm reading other people's blogs! (just my little tar tar and my shanny poo) speaking of which...in 9 days my little tar tar will come to visit and we will have a slumber party and stay up late and eat lots of food that is not good for us, and remeniss about the good old days! it will be loads of fun! i will freeze thier bra's while they sleep! just kidding...who am i kidding, i'll fall asleep first, and it will be my bra that will be froze! if you guys can get it off of me that is! lately i've been sleeping in my bra because my boobs are so freakin big and swollen they hurt too bad not to have support 24/7! okay, that's all for now! adios p.s. banana's grow on trees!

MY SOFIE DOG

it was early thursday morning. i was asleep, but was woken up by a sound i knew too well. it was the sound of my sofie having a ceasure. i ran down the stairs, and there she was in the hall way. all i could to was hold her. after what seemed like forever, she stopped shaking. but then the worst happened. i had never seen her that way. she was choking, her eyes were bugged out, panting uncontrollably... i didn't know what to do. i screamed for doug to get some water. her toungue was hanging out of her mouth, i tried to splash water onto it, but nothing seemed to work. then she bit her tounge. she started to bleed. i was so scared. i held her mouth open so she wouldn't bite it again. finally she calmed down. sage opened her door and saw sofie, she started to cry. i made her go back into her room and close the door, assuring her that sofie would be okay. i yelled for doug to call my dad. i held sofie as she calmed down. i wet my hand so she could lick it. my dad asked me what i wanted him to do... i didn't know, i just needed to call him. it was then that i decided that it wasn't fair for sofie to have to experience this. she kept looking up at me as if to say, "why? why is this happening?" i told doug through tears that i was going to take her to the vet today. i sat with sofie for an hour untill she was able to walk on her own. i held the bowl of water to her mouth so she could drink. she paced back and forth not wanting to rest. finally she layed down. i sat in the chair and watched her, making sure she was okay. i called the vet at 8am to schedule the appointment. it was the most difficult decission i've had to make so far in my life, but i knew it was the right one. i couldn't bear to let another episode like that one take over my dog. it wouldn't be fair to her to let that happen again. it was a chance i was not willing to take. the next few hours, chubakka and i hung out with sofie, gave her lots of treats, and i took a plaster paw print. at 11:30 am sofie and i left the house for the vet. doug met us there. it was a very emotional time for me, but she felt no pain, and it was very quick. i miss her more than i am able to express, but i know she is with me and will always be with me. we have her ashes in a keepsake box with her picture in the front. i love my sofie dog, and i will miss her always.
