I wanna go to Bora, Bora...

I think two weeks in a bungalow that is out over the ocean blue is well worth 6 grand... WELL worth it! Now I just wish I had an extra 6K laying around. SOMEDAY!

Boy, do I need a vacation, and I don't think Chicago in March will do it! Poland will be cold in April too, AND it is work - so that doesn't count! May can't come fast enough GoodTimePals!

Sorry, I promise to write more soon, but that is all for now.

Happy Feb21 folks!

Today's things to be happy about: Understanding why all those people are walking around with grey smudges on their forehead, looking forward to a night without plans, diet root beer, being "good" sore from a nice workout, out-of-control "Staff-All" e-mail chains, and the sun making an appearance with weather above freezing!

Monday, Monday...

Can't trust that day.

So, I made the switch. I am officially "in." I have "the network."

It was a very tough decision. Why? Because they all drop calls. They all suck. So I went with the more expensive provider, because I was tired of the dropped calls and the people I talked to swear they don't get dropped calls in this area. Everyone did, however, tell me that the customer service sucks... and I can now attest to that.

"Welcome to the customer service line, can I help you."

Yea, I want to transfer my old number over to here. can you please help me with that?

"Great maam, we can definitely help you with that."

great.

"Tell us the number etc, and we'll get this going for you."

ok.

SO, It's all finished and the lady says "This looks great, this should switch over in 24-72 hours. Can I help you with anything else?"

No

"OK maam, have a great day."

From this conversation, I got the following: We did it, thanks. Have a good day.

5 days later (because of the weekend I gave it a few days extra), my phone number still hadn't transferred over. So I called again.

"Welcome to the customer service line, can I help you."

My number hasn't transferred over and it has been 5 days since I called last.

"Lemme check on the problem maam... It looks like you never finished the process. We need you to do this one last thing."

OK, why didn't anyone tell me this - or maybe call me to let me know there as a problem? I've been paying for two bills for 5 days now.

"I'm sorry maam, and can give you a $20.00 credit to cover that... and we'll fix the problem now."

fine, let's do it.

"Just follow the prompts, and you'll be fine. Have a great day."

A few prompts come, and the little techno woman says "Sorry, we don't recognize your number, have a great day." Then she hangs up.

EFF.

I had to call back, AGAIN. Finally this woman fixed it, but three minutes later, my phone got a text message that said "Please call customer service at your earliest convenience."

I really didn't want to, but I did. In the meantime, the stupid 2 week old phone I purchased BROKE - so badly that the final customer service agent suggested I bring that in-person to a store.

I have yet to do that, but assume it won't act up when I get in the store and they won't believe me and the trauma will continue. Damn the phone people. Damn them.

As a side note, I have gotten called "maam" way too much lately. People, I am 28. This, combined with the first ever need-to dye because of the grey hairs occurring last week, is very traumatic for a young woman. Oh yea, and it's valentines week. Lovely.

Today's things to be happy about: land lines, no dropped calls, a good hair dye and cut, being called "darlin'", and candy hearts that say "page me."

Happy Feb12 folks!

Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow...

I lied. Don't let it snow. Eff the snow. 6 inches in about 5 hours in Ohio is insane. Not to mention straight through rush hour, which happened to begin at noon today because of the all-out snow panic. (Please note: I did stop for milk... and Cookie Crisp. I didn't want to be "snowed in" without them. Priorities!) As expected, the grocery was frantic.

So I got home around 3:30 because work told us all to
leave (nice.) I shoveled when I got home, because I knew more snow was coming and shoveling 6-9 inches was harder than 2-3 inches a few different times. (I was using my noggin.) Not to mention at 3:30, it was 9 degrees, and I knew later in the day or tomorrow morning it would be 0 degrees, which is way less fun to hang out in and shovel.

Then around 5:30, I looked out and decided it was time
for round two. Here is the before image:
So, like any good shoveler... I started at the garage door and worked my way out of the house to the curb. pushing all snow to the sides, not the street. It went pretty fast. WHY? Well, because I am good (obviously) and because it was 9 degrees and I was getting snowed on (duh.) So I finished it in like 30 minutes. By the time I finished, however, I had to shovel my path back to the garage. See below:


Yea, so then I threw salt. That worked well. See below:


And here I am now, back online, with another 2 inches outside, looking harder for vacation packages, and pre-heating my heating blanket for a long winter's nap!

Happy Feb6 folks!

Sweet dreams... of warm weather and scuba diving...



PS - - Bob, please excuse the delay... I was shoveling. Here are the 6 normal things about me...
1. I put my pants on one leg at a time, just like everyone else.
2. I hate traffic and stupid drivers.
3. I love to people watch and point out bad behaviors, hair issues and 80s clothing to make me feel better about myself.
4. I have some debt.
5. I have a great group of friends, and family is important to me.
AND last but not least... number 6. I enjoy meeting new people and making new friends - on here, and in "real life"...

Aren't those all pretty "normal" things?

Back to regular programming

I mentioned that I would get back to this later in the week. My Number 3 life Path said,
"In love, you inspire and enchant your partner.
You are often an object of fantasy and desire."
Really? Come on. As a single 28 year-old woman in Ohio, if I really were "often an object of fantasy and desire," I would expect these folks who feel that way to step forward and be acknowledged.

My luck the fantasy has something to do with me organizing or TLC'ing someone's house while they are on vacation with Cindy Crawford. Or, yea this is it... when they pick teams for sports and have to take a girl, they desire to have a girl that can play on their team.

Sure, I get the whole inspiring and enchanting my partner thing, but "love" has been a while at this point... so I can't remember if it is true. I'm not looking. It's too much work. I'm happy anyway... but seriously, if these people exist, they should come forward to claim their "prize." p-hahahahahaha

Happy Feb3 folks!

PS - I do also acknowledge that no one would ever admit it after reading my last post. I'm not worried anyway, since those kind of crazies don't exist.

But I do know if they did, it would be my luck that they would find me. :)

I've been tagged...

Thanks to the ever-entertaining DorkyDad, I have been tagged with a meme. However, it's not one of those 3-hour endeavors, so I am okay with it. I am tasked with sharing 6 weird things about me, or if I cheat, 6 weird things that have happened to me. Hmmm... Decisions, Decisions. I'm SO not a cheater, so I guess I'll go with "about me."

Number One (1)
I have, at one point in my lifetime, either have been or wanted to be each of the following professions:
  • Lawyer - way too much reading
  • Professional Athlete - p-ha, well I needed a little more talent for that one
  • Teacher - too many kids
  • Wife - Homemaker to a hot firefighter preferably (Still working on this one.)
  • Mother - Nah, I love other people's kids better.
  • Professor - too much going to school
  • Architect - too much responsibility. I didn't want to be responsible when the building fell
  • Pharmacist - purely for the money and hours, so not interested enough
  • Graphic Designer - including, but not limited to environmental designer, packaging designer, print designer, art director, etc. - too much creative on demand
  • Operations manager - too boring
  • Something in Organizational Change - waaaayyy to stressful
  • Marketer - too general... half of the girls in college want to be in "marketing"
  • Advertising Executive - Been there, done that.
  • "Strategic Planner" - haven't fully figured out what it was, but like it thus far.

Number Two (2)
I have been a vegetarian since the day we went to a farm in the 5th grade and drew with purple chalk on big black cows where all the different types of meat came from. To this day, I am totally grossed out by meat. If my food touched it, I won't eat it. No broth. NOTHING. I will, for some reason, drink milk and eat cheese, but eggs are SO out!

Number Three (3)
I don't see movies. It is not that I don't like movies... I just don't see them. Some, I refuse to watch... just 'cause. A sampling of movies I have not seen that will make you "wonder a little" about me:
  • Goodfellas
  • Godfather (NONE)
  • Star Wars (NONE. Not old ones. Not new ones.)
  • Lord of the Rings (NONE)
  • 16 Candles
  • Pirates of the Caribbean
  • Casablanca
  • It's a Wonderful Life
  • Apocalypse Now
  • Batman (None)
  • 2001: A Space Odyssey
  • Dirty Harry
  • Fight Club
  • Spiderman (None)

Number Four (4)
I have a FABULOUS sense of direction; however, if you didn't know this already, I am incapable of telling my right from my left in pressure situations - i.e., when driving or giving directions while in a car. I will typically just turn whichever way my preconceived notion tells me to turn, despite the directions being provided. Despite not getting this simple R/L correlation, my brain SOMEHOW comprehends the transient and complex nature of "This Way" and "That Way."

If I am talking to someone, "This way" is the direction that is closer to me than it is to them. "That way" would be the direction closest to them. However, in this same situation, if they were talking to me "That Way" is close to me, while "This Way" is closest to them. Sound complicated? Try being in a car with me!

Yea, I'm nuts. Not sure why "Left is Left and makes and L" doesn't work for me. Unfortunately, I must be crazy.

Number Five (5)
I hate socks.I hate them on my feet. I hate them on other people's feet. In general, I am not a fan. However, they are NEVER to be worn in bed. It's unattractive and annoying.

And Number Six (6)
If you'd ask my friends, they would probably refer to one of the following as a weird thing about me:

  • I lose my cell phone, wallet, check card, etc. on a regular basis.
  • I break my cell phone on a regular basis
  • I'm allergic to everything on the planet - dogs, cats, trees, grass, feathers, dust... you name it.
  • I get sinus infections every February
  • I am OCD... down to straightening the fringes on the throw rugs.
  • I am one extreme or the other... stuff is either super clean and organized OR I am am a total, complete disaster. This is because it takes too much effort to make it perfect, and "almost perfect" won't do, so I have to be all or nothing.
But my number 6 is this... I cannot stand repetitive tapping noises, whether it be drips in the sink, fingers on a desk, clicks of a pen, tapping of a foot, the 15 seconds of Madden that plays over and over when trying to pick a play or techno music. The more I hear it, the more I focus on it and the sooner I will end up in a round room with padded walls.


OKAY, so maybe I went overboard, and now everything not only THINKS I am weird, but KNOWS what is weird about me. GREAT! I should have taken Dorky's road and done what happened to me... at least then, I'd appear less crazy, right? ;)

OK, I guess I have to, I mean GET TO, tag 6 people... AML, Running Rabbit, Doc Steph, Toothy, Dan-O, and Bob. Have fun, and can't wait to read about ya'll!

Quiz time

I did Jlee's little quiz, and it kinda fit my procrastinating perfectionist nature, so I thought I'd share. We will talk later this week about the following line:

"In love, you inspire and enchant your partner. You are often an object of fantasy and desire." p-hahaha

Your Life Path Number is 3

Your purpose in life is to express your
unique self.


You are a creative and artistic person with an interesting view on life. Witty and outgoing, you enjoy sharing your crazy ideas with anyone who will listen. A total social butterfly, you're the life of any party.

In love, you inspire and enchant your partner. You are often an object of fantasy and desire.

While you are very talented, you sometimes lack the ambition to put your talents in play.
And while your wit carries you a long way, you occasionally use it to mask your true feelings.
Your natural abilities can bring you all the success in the world ... if you let them

New Blogger...

I am official. Blogger.com made me change to new blogger today, which is, I think, why half of your comments are showing up anonymous today. So, I guess we will see if this thing makes it easier for real, or is a total P.I.T.A.

So, I decided to be boring and lazy, and do nothing of any value this evening. I was tired, and haven't done that in a while... so tonight was the night. We drove to Louisville to listen to the current trends in alcohol consumption today for work. (NO, I am not kidding. And as a side note, I will probably spend part of April in Miami, LA, NY, Poland, and Prague doing vodka research. That just sounds WRONG!) That was a 3+ hours in the car, and 1.5 hours in the meeting. And I had to be at work early, so I was exhausted.

I came home early and napped on the couch for an hour, then flipped through the remote control the rest of the evening. Exciting eh? My friends all went to the rodeo tonight. I'm sad I missed it, because the people watching in South Ohio at the rodeo is well worth the price of admission! Ehhh... what can you do when the mood just isn't there?

Does anyone know the show 1 vs 100? I actually like it. I wonder how these mob idiots don't know the answers to the questions, but I like the concept. It's so much better than Deal or No Deal. I ended flipping through and watching Mike the Mouth and the Sheik fight again in the 2005 World Series of Poker. That never gets old. Mike is always annoying, but together they are pure entertainment. The Sheik, however is at least pleasant to look at. :)

Everything else that is on is just an encore of a show from earlier in the week... BOO! So, I rented a movie for later - Talladega Nights. It's supposedly funny... so we'll see.

I also decided I was poor and needed to do my taxes... so I did. They are done. I just have to check them and hit the e-file button! SWEEEEEET. I love free "not really free but they took it from me when they shouldn't have taken all that much" money.

And I'm looking at a real vacation... suggestions that include clear water, low price and hammocks?

Oh yea, and I get to spend part of tomorrow snow tubing with my godson and his brother, and my best friend, their mom. I can't wait. Guess I need to find my snow clothes!

Happy Jan26 folks!

Ciao for the evening...

Friday, January 19, 2007

Very, very funny...

So I was doing a little research in UrbanDictionary.com, and stumbled across this fantastic little tidbit...

I think the concept should be blown out even further than it is... We need comparisons. Who would have the highest SMV in the world?
And I am not exactly agreeing with their formula, or their car quotients. How is a Vespa 600?
Hmmm... This is definitely something to think about. How would you calculate SMV?

Embracing my inner nerd...

Tonight, I experienced what very few will have the opportunity to experience...

It's life altering...

It's Earth-shattering...

It's live...

It's...

THAT IS RIGHT... Tonight, I spent the evening with an ex-NKOTB member, a Lachey brother, Joey "Whoa" Lawrence, "Jerry, Jerry, Jerry..." and Lisa Renna, with hubby Harry "I should stick to LA LAW" Hamlin. What I learned? Please see below.
  • Joey is still a dork (both of them)
  • Whoever runs the show HAS to be in charge of Joey McIntyre's record sales
  • NKOTB turned Sinatra is a BAD idea.
  • Lisa Renna has "dream abs" and can dance as well as all the pros
  • Her husband, Harry, CAN'T
  • Ladies love men who can dance (duh)
  • Pasa Doble ,err however it is spelled, means two passes (of the big red bull thingy)
  • Save a horse, ride a cowboy
  • Fake tanning stuff CAN turn into a royal tragedy and appear as cellulite on even the most ideal legs
  • Dancers legs move faster than seems humanly possible
  • My obsession with male arms continues... (wow)
  • Ramba, Samba, and tango just sound sexy
  • I am a wimp for ever complaining about the pain involved in shoes, because I don't do THAT in THOSE heals.
  • That show has some crazy DIE HARD fans
That is all I can think of for now! It was fun... a little hokey, but well worth it. I am proud of my inner and OUTER nerd. If I was so inclined, I could have met Joey McIntyre and bought a shotty CD to get signed! I, however, was NOT so inclined!

Happy Jan17
