All Blogged Out

I've been busy. Very busy and with good intentions I'll try to sit down and write something profound.....funny.....amazing, but nothing comes out. I just sit and stare at a blank screen. It's aggrevating seeing that I write everyday for my job. Granted I'm writing about lactose and whey, but that's something! So here I am topicless.

What kills me even more is that soemething will happen and I make a mental note to blog about it but then I either A) forget about it or B) it sounds dumb when I start typing away. But to catch you up on where I'm at right now here's a top ten.

My top ten of the past month........

10. I downloaded Journey's greatest hits and haven't stopped believen' ever since!
9. The Nationals won their first game that I attended (against the Orioles!!!).
8. Meteorologists are the devil.
7. PBR ME, ASAP! is my new summer motto.
6. Work is my life. Literally.
5. Doorman, Security guards and Bouncers love me and I don't know why...
4. I saw Cursive and Against Me! in B-more....I was the one preppy amongst 30+ mohawks!
3. Moonbounces at house parties are AMAZING!
2. Scrubs Season Finale made me want to cry, not to mention how the Twins have been playing lately too!
1. It wasn't the British accent that got me...it was something better. :)

The cherry....no..."Drive105" on top....

Let’s just say I shouldn’t touch anything that requires or includes the words, batteries, motor, screen, batteries…..can you catch the drift? First my digital camera stopped working, then my phone fell in the toilet, then my car didn’t pass inspection (e-brake) and now I’m waiting for my computer to explode. Okay, it may not explode but it is becoming ancient and proving that it no long undestands the meaning of 'fast.'

But give things time (more like money) and all will be good, right? Wrong. Well…kinda right. As in send the camera back in, order the parts for the car and buy a new phone (yeah, it finally quit on me after the resurrection). So now I’m around minus $500 in my account, but it’s okay cause I still have the good things in life that are free such as my radio station. But wait! No! That’s not even there anymore.

My beloved Drive105 is now a stinkin’ ‘Love105 FM’.

Dumb. Dumb. Dumb. I’m sad. I had gotten over all of the material stuff. That’s life. But when you take my music away, there will be a price to pay. And yes, they were dumb enough to give out an e-mail to ask our thoughts. Trust me. I had let them know.

The Little Phone that Could

I'm awesome. No wait - my phone is. Even though I was hating the thing for a solid 14 hours I got over it when it finally came through for me.

You see last night after kickball (I watched...not played) I headed over to Irish Times for some fun. Right when I arrived (meaning I haven't drank anything yet) I headed straight for the bathroom. Noticing the extremley sticky/soiled floor I chose to put my bag on the very large ledge above the toilet. Right as I turn I heard a nice "kerplunk." Slowly I turn to see my phone resting at the bottom of the porcelain bowl. Quickly I grab it and started to dry the thing out. After an hour I couldn't resurrect it. Nothing...worked..at....all. It wouldn't be a big deal if A) It wasn't so dang new and B) That's my life line. I got a little upset but soon got over when someone handed me a pitcher.

This morning it still didn't work. I finally planned on going to the store and purchase a new one. But as soon as I came around to explaining to my co-workers why I couldn't do lunch it miracuously turned on. I flipped. Yeah, it's still a bit water logged and the screen is a bit blotchy but it works! Therefore, as MB says, it's awesome.

Now if only other things could have that kind of turn around!

Why I love my friends..

Best line ever of the day from a friend:

“There is also a 7:00PM game that I'll be reffing before heading over to the bar, where we'll proceed to get blindingly drunk and make lots of bad decisions.”

Oh TC, how do you crack me up! Hahahahha.

Foxfield '07 Survivor

I did it! I survived Foxfields ’07! It was a good time that included but not limited to; moonshine, mimosa, bloody mary’s, beer, lemonade (from little boy selling on the side of the road - $2!!) and a Bubba full of gin and tonic. I kept only one tradition alive this time. It was Bubba. He and I were a bit of a hit at 10 am in the morning. All the peeps loved him and his endlessness of gin and tonic.

I let go of some tradition this year. One being seeking out the frat boys – or was it vice versa? Regardless…there were none to be had. Only those who held a degree! But that was mostly due to my location this time around. Not to mention I was staying with all girls too. No one wants to be considered the ‘slutty’ one in the group. And we all know that girls label other girls that way, even if it’s a simple little kiss.

The other tradition I knocked off was 24/7 drinking. I figured my host, who this time made me breakfast before 9 am, would appreciate me not falling all over her stuff. Though I’m a little more comfortable with the past when the guys threw me an air mattress and blanket and allowed me to figure out the rest! But I will hand it to my host, she was able to tolerate my crazy dance moves during all hours of the day, even at 8 am. Haha.

I had fun. It wasn’t like the past – but I blame only one thing for that. He knows who he is. Even though tradition is tradition, I guess you can’t let little things get in the way. I’ll let him go on this one. But he better be ready next time. No worries – I don’t expect said person to make me bran muffins from scratch. A little stale beer and Cheetos are all I need to stay classy for Foxfields.

Hey, I never claimed to be much of a lady!

p.s. And to prove it was good, I even got a sticker from Cane’s stating that I “Got Sauced at Foxfield’s 07!” Hahahahahahaha. God bless fried chicken.
