Well, How About That...

Work went ok today. Even sans Kiki. I have been working on learning this new task so to speak, and it filled up a good portion of my day. I thrive in an enviroment where I am constantly being challenged. Well, this is one of those jobs and I just love it.

The Grinch is getting trouble and doesn't know it yet.

All is good.

The Fastest Way To Ruin Nice Clothes...

Wash them with tinted bronzing lip gloss.

I ruined really nice stuff tonight.

I Can't Believe It...

I cannot believe that I have not told the story about the Nagging Neighbors. They are something else.

So Nagging Nagging Neighbor #1 (NN1) is loud and in your face. This girl has no concept of personal space or boundries. I made the mistake of making small talk with her. Now we are best buds. I cringe. Nagging Neighbor #2 is the poor soul that NN1 managed to get her hooks into. Nice enough guy, but never shuts up. Means really well, but doesn't know when to stop.

One day when I was on the phone with MrsGiggles, and we were chatting up a storm only to be interuptted by NN1. The conversation went something like this.

"Umm, Junegirl, you have been on the phone with me for quite sometime. I know you didn't answer the door. Now, how is it that your neighbor is standing in your kitchen yelling at you for being on the phone? Did she just let herself in?"

"Yes."

Now another day. I had the back door open with a fan in the door sucking in some semi-cool air. NN1 saw me standing at the stove and let herself into the kitchen. 10 mins later she is still there.

One night, she comes over for some small talk (I assumed). 5 hours later, I am still looking at her. Ate dinner with her. Looking to kill her.

One day I am not feeling well, had some dental work done (I told you about that, right?). Well, anyway, not feeling really well because dentists have that effect. NN2 knew I was home, but the blinds were closed and the door was locked. I am laying on the couch drifting in and out of awareness, and all of a sudden I hear the door knob. Followed by NN2's voice. "Is this door locked? Why is the door locked?" OMG!!!

Today, I was slinking out my door to check the mail (I am a sad little person, there was none). And there they were "Hi Nieghbor. Nice hair." (I had just woken up, not pretty). NN1 invited herself over tonight. It's ashame I am sitting here at my Mom's typing this to you.

So I am sure there will be more to this story, as I have a year lease. But now you know what I am dealing with.

*Good thing I emailed a copy of this post to myself at work, it wasn't a total loss then.

I Don't Think You're Ready For This Jelly...

I am feeling zombie-lious (I am it's spelled wrong, and I just don't care).

Tonight, Digi and possibly Squidward and I are taking in a showing of Land of the Dead.

I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

In other movie news, I finally finished The Talented Mr. Ripley. Strange.

Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous: Cute. Nothing is ever as good as the 1st.

The Joys Of Summer...

Hot Dogs, Swimming, Fresh Cut Grass, Lemonade Stands, Popsicles...

It's too bad I am not talking about any of those things.

Road Construction.

A major street has been all but completely shut down for a week, and it's not looking like an end is coming soon.

And I Shall Be Your Juicy...

So I have returned from the land of the Musky. I don't feel like typing the whole weekend out so we will just cover the high points.
1. In a drunken slur, my nickname has been changed to Juicy.
2. It's all fun and games until someone falls in the campfire.
3. It's NEVER ok to blow off your friends who you have not seen in a year for a street dance.
4. When in doubt, the metal end of the marshmallow roaster is hot.
5. When you are giving friends directions, always tell them if there is more than one of the highway the need to take (i.e. County Highways that are lettered).
6. I actually heard the song "Barbie Girl" twice in the same day.

Those are the high (or low, depending on who is telling the story) points, I could go on and on but that's all you need to know.

In My Absence...

Something to entretain you...

Jason Mulgrew

Blogging Hiatus...

It's Beer o'clock in my world. I will be taking a short blogging break to go camping for a wonderful little event called 'Musky Fest'.

That's right, I am going to Musky Fest. I am not hardly contain my glee. I will be leaving bright and early tomorrow and returning on Sunday. (Not that I can blog on the weekends anyway, and I don't like being a Monday - Friday blogger, now that you mention it).

I am sure that shenanigans will ensue, and MrsGiggles and I will have full reports then.

Strangest Referral Hit Ever...

I am #8 on Google German for "raped his ass stories".

This impresses me.

Tuesday, June 21, 2005

Sometimes Good Enough Just Isn't...

*bummer alert: sense of failure post*

My mid-year review has again left me feel defeated. I think I do a good job. They constantly remind me that I don't. I tell them I am bored, they say maybe I should just improve at my current job. I specifically say, "This line of work bores me."

"Well, what else are you going to do? Where are you going to go?" I felt like I was being told that now that they have me, I am trapped. And it's always good when they tell you that you have no chance for advancement. And that as long as I stay here, this is as good as it gets.

Just once I want a good review. Just once I want to leave here feeling good about my day's work.

When is good enough, good enough? When is ok to settle? How do you succeed in a small town built for men? How do you find a job that makes you happy? Is there a such a thing as a job that makes you happy? Have I overstayed my welcome? Is it time to move on? How long do you stay in one spot when you know that you have no chance for advancement?

Does anybody know?

What Is Wrong With Them...

First, Katie (who I bet in married before the end of summer), and now Jennifer Garner.

These guys are damaged goods!!!

Someone please put them in their right minds!!!

And if Keanu really is married...I will cry....And if this really happened, I might die...

Movie Mumblings....

This weekend I saw Taxi and The Aviator.

Taxi: I am going to have to have a talk with my Jimmy. If I am going to have his love child, he is going to have to make better movies if he plans to ssupport us.

The Aviator: Good, but long. You get to see Leo's heiney thou...

Thank God for short week...

Something For Everyone...

So I saw Mr and Mrs Smith with Annie and MM last night. What a good move!! Not going to win an Oscar, but sooo fun to watch.

I laughed alot more then I expected. Very witty. Lots of chemistry between the 2 (well, duh huh?)

I think Angelina is a horse, but she looked good in this movie.

I Miss All The Fun...

I won the sales contest for the month at work, and I got to go out for lunch with my supervisor (which wasn't all that bad) and I got to wear jeans today (for the first time in 4 years). I went for chinese, tasty goodness.

Well, I guess while we were gone, the alarms went off and the cops came. The Grinch had to convince the cops that we weren't being robbed. I miss out on EVERYTHING!

I Am Scared For Her...

Someone please save Katie Holmes.

I mean I get what the girl is doing, If given the oppourtunity, I'd do Tom too....But this is too much...

Movie Mumblings...

Minority Report, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, Batman Begins.

MR: Long but good. Tom Cruise and Colin Farrell ... A girl can't go wrong.

SC: Run, run fast away from this movie.

BB: OMG!!! Best Batman so far!!!! I would go see it again (money allowing) if certain brother's wanted to go.

It's Tongue Twister Time...

10 shots of Novacaine later....I can't feel my face.

Dentists are not nice people, but he was nice enough to hold my mouth open for me when my jaw was just too tired.

The Sweet Taste of Victory...

Not that I can taste anything right now, just got back from my 1st of many dentist visits, but that's another post...

But I am number 1 on Yahoo for Paris and Nicole Feud!!!!!

Shamelss Payoffs...

I am slowing see a slight increase in referral traffic. Sunday I got a hit for Jessica Simpson and Bam Magera. Presumably they were looking for dirt on the affair scandal. I personally find this doubtful.

I have always had good luck with Nicole Ritchie hits. Thank heavens for eating disorders and drastic weight loss.


I am #9 on My Web Search For Miss Congentialty 2.


I am on MyWay search for Gordman's. A store about 60 miles south of here.

Crazy...

Well, Isn't That Just The Cat's Ass...

I went over my limit on my credit card by $0.13, and for that I got charged $29!

That will teach me to have them lower my limit.

Adventures As A Vault Teller...

My foray into life as a vault teller has left me beaten and defeated. I do not believe I am capable of being a vault teller. My supervisor cut my week short today and thought it would be best that she took over. That really bothered me. 10 minutes later, I was back on track, content with my medicore career with no chance for promotion.

I made rookie mistakes. And for having no help and just having been handed the keys to the kingdom, I did ok. However, my $0.18 error will haunt me for a little while.

But, at least I am more available to blog then...

Shameless Ploy...

Most of my referral hits come from people looking for Lindsay Lohan info....so to attract more....I present this mess.

Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Simpson, dog porn whips chains and chocolate, dukes of hazard, bam magera, skinny bitch, herbie fully loaded, nicole ritchie, paris sex tape, mark, ann coulter, whipped topping, saddle riding, pizza face eating, clear skin now, low mortgage rates, losers on ice, geek porn, brad pitt, save katie holmes, hilary duff, britney's satan spawn (pregnancy), bit bit, tinkerbell escapes, tomkat, The O.C., Paris and Nicole fued

It might not work....but lets see what happens, shall we?

Do I Really Have Too...

It looks a bit like the sky is going to open a big can of whoop on us. I am sitting at Digi's office and I am debating whether or not the weather will premit me to walk to my car with out becoming soaked. Think they'd miss me back at the office? It's only 3 hours of my day...

It's been tornadoing south of here a great deal...and I am glad it's them and not me. hate storms.

Funniest Thing I Have Heard All Day...

You could not swing a cat with out hitting queer up in the Dodge Theatre.

Today's chuckle is brought to you by From My Lips To Your Ears. In context, it makes sense. Out of context, it's the funniest thing I have ever heard. Well, either way it's still funny.

This Is The Least Jealous I Have Ever Been...

In a strange twist in the Harry Potter story line, Prof. Snape professed his undying affection for the love of his life by proposing.

Ok, so you might not find that in the new book coming out. But PF did propose to his beloved MM last night. He is so happy, he even smiled.

yup, I am going to die alone.

And The Smart Villagers Quietly Scattered...

I am not going to tell you again, either you are going to keep your voices down or you aren't going to talk at all.

I really can say that I hate this woman. Never has one creature frightened me as much as this our Godzilla.

Thursday, June 09, 2005

Godzillza Returns...

Kiki and I just both recieved this same email from Godzilla.


Please keep your voices down regardless what you are talking about - especially when there are customers in the building.

Kind of wish we weren't talking about her date tonight with the psuedo-celebrity from town.

Thursday Treat...

Excuse me, ma'am, is that dress felt? Would you like it to be?

Small Town Life...

You know that you live a small town life when there are festivals devoted to alcohol. My mom just won tickets to The Beer Festival in the next town over.

I just inherited them.

Happy Birthday...

Birthday wishes to Blogger Buddy Mark today!!!!

So head on over there and bury him in birthday wishes!

Lonely...

Cue that retarded ass Akon song

Both KiKi and MrsGiggles are MIA today.

What's a blogger to do at work all day?

Tales From The Vault...

Kinda like Tales from the crypt. Did you ever watch that show? As a kid, it creeped me out. Not so much anymore.

Ok, so today was much easier. I have this vault thing down. Today I shaved 15 mins off yesterdays time. YAY me!!!

When someone complimented me, The Grinch sneered "Well, it's not that hard." To which Chicken in a Biscuit replied. "Well, it takes you 2 hours."

Teehee....I don't think she knows how nasty it sounded on her part. BUT yay! The Grinch totally had it coming.

Scary!

Adventures In Moving...

I keep losing posts and I find it very annoying.

Sunday night we had our very frist surprise company. Sally, Todd, and Brett came over. It was cool, they showed up with beer. I think I might even have a few cans left.

The quote of the night came from Brett: "I am comfortable with my sexuality, but that man has some big balls." Taken out of context it seems almost dirty. If you want to know the story...well...ask Brett. It's his story about another man's balls.

By the end of the night, Brett and I made a little barter transaction. He took my super cool copy of X-men on DVD and I in turn get his computer. It's cool, so much of our stuff has been donated. Our couch, entertainment center, both chairs, soon to be computer, and thanks to MrsGiggles' mom, a working digital camera. I am really blessed.

So who wants to donate some frozen chicken breasts?

Pimpin' Ain't Easy...

I felt very pimp with all the vault keys hanging off my wrists today.

That feeling faded pretty fast. I busted my butt today. In fact, I think today might be the first day in 6 months that I actually earned a day's wage. Today was my 1st day as vault teller. I was running around like crazy all day and I was so happy to get out of there, but my day just flew by. I didn't have have a chance to blog (I am at my parent's right now, eating their food and stealing their internet)!!!

The Grinch is wicked pissed. She didn't speak to either Kiki or myself all day. And I think we like it that way. Well, she went out of her way to be a thorn in my side today. All the things that every tellers you don't do. She did.

I hope she is starting to feel the pressure of everything. She's a decent enough person, but she has to get the hint that we all want her gone.

It's a shame.

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta.

Next on the list is Minority Report.

My Posts Keep Disappearing...

Strange Things...

Movie Mumblings...

Murphy's Law...

...States that if you are planning on moving a sofa in an uncovered pickup truck, it will start to rain 5 minutes before you plan to do so.

This is really an Adventures In Moving post, but I just liked the other title today.

Well, today the redneck brother offered the assistance of his pick-up. So here I am thinking, rock on! And he offered to assemble everything that needed assembly. So loaded up a ton of stuff from my Mom's and we were off. He is starting to assemble the over the toilet storage rack and sees that directions are for something completely different. If it were me, I would have just cried then. He instead pushed ahead....and didn't get it assembled. LOL he had way too many parts and it wobbled a great deal. Then I cried. So we decieded that it would have to be returned to get on with correct directions. He then though...I will hook up the DVD player and such. Well, can you guess what happened? That's right, I needed _________ adapter. Don't ask me what it was, but it had to be gotten at Radio Shack. And you would imagine that with working there last summer, I would be able to hook up my own DVD player, and the correct response to that is ....UH....NO. So he was off to RS and I was off to Wal-mart.

We then headed out to get the couch, because it was hardly raining anymore. And that actually went smoothly shockingly.

But I didn't get nearly as much done as I had intended. So I am a little bummed. But it's almost looking like a house now.

The Grinch Get A Mullet...

That's right.....the grinch got a mullet.

Next on Maury...Mullets and the woman who love them.

Thursday, June 02, 2005

Adventures In Moving...

Ever notice how the fastest hour of the day, is your lunch hour? Well today was no exception. I dropped off some boxes at the new house, and before I knew it. It was time to go back to work. I had enough time to snarf (isn't that a fun word?) a Hot Pcoket (yum) and dash to the car.

I am going back after work tonight to take the bunch of boxes out of my car. I will be happy when it's over.

Pick-Up Line Of The Week...

This week's cheesy goodness comes from my own life.

So I was at the gas station washing up Dessa, because a clear car is a happy car and I am approached with the following line, "There's something sexy about a woman who knows her way around a big hose."

My jaw hit the ground. I promptly got in my car and drove away, I was too creeped to even finish washing my car. It's really spotty due to the fact that it never got rinsed off.

I Am One Happy Blogger...

I am all caught up with my posting!!!! Now on to the new!

The Grinch Rides Again...

Kiki, Saltine and I have been having increasing problems at work with The Grinch. She is and has been out of control for some time. We have talked to the supervisor lady and made our point clear, however nothing really seems to help.

Well, it all came to a head Tuesday when I went to take a drive up tube and The Grinch looked at me and said "I'll do it, because I would hate to bother you." WTF?!?! I think my head exploded a little.

Well, I marched my little narc ass to the supervisor and I was promptly moved to a different window. The Grinch got her mid-year review minutes later and it was not pretty. Teehee.

Just Another Maniac Monday....

Alright, now we are at Memorial Day Monday and the redneck BBQ. Don't get me wrong. I had fun. The parental units, MM, PS, LE (see digi for explaination) and cutie girls, the redneck brother, and his crew. We are getting a few last minute things at the store and I notice that my mother has spent $65 on beer and chips. I think it's a little much. Well, we ended up with 12 bottles of bud select, 6 bottles of Lienney's Berry, 12 bottle of twisted smirnoff and a bottle of pre mixed jose' stuff. Well, the redneck brother brings a rather scruffy crew with him, and it frightened poor MM at first. She came running into the housae and said "Who are these guys and why are they staring at me?" To which I replied, "Well, you doned are the purdiest little philly they ever seen round these parts." She was not amused.

As the afternoon went on, we heard stories of exploding couches, fireworks gone wrong, caones crossing frozen lakes, and other things. Mind you, you have to picture this crew. They are business in the front, party in the back kind of people. Mullet science at it's best.

I was annoyed that -6 bottles of alcohol laster, they promptly left. They were there only for the beer.

But I had fun none the less.

I Got It Stuck Where...

So, tonight I got the keys to the new place. They will be changing soon, but he got us the keys so we could at least start moving in.

Tonight, I had my first experience with Contact paper. And it didn't go well. It's very sticky, you know. I think half the roll is crumpled up in the trash because it kept sticking to all the wrong places.
