No means no…

If you watch Seinfeld did you ever see the episode where George tries to break up with a girl and she told him no? In my mid-twenties I had the same thing happened. I was dating a nice enough boy but after a few months I knew he wasn’t the one or even close to the one and so I broke up with him. He told me no. I was like what? I had been sick at the time and he told me that I must have a fever and I was delusional from the fever and we were too good to break up. And he left. Umm. So then I called him later to tell him no, we were indeed not together anymore. And again I got that I was sick and not thinking clearly and that we were still together. He would call as if everything was normal and I would remind him that we were broken up and he would tell me we were not. I finally broke down and called the largest, meanest friend I knew to go tell him that we were no longer together and to leave me the heck alone. Fortunately he was signed up to go into the military right after … [Read more...]

I watched the Vow tonight. A very chick flick indeed and I didn’t force MDP to sit through that. I liked it on some levels (if Channing Tatum tells you he is your husband tell him okay…and then ask him to see him with his shirt off :P ). I didn’t like it for the fact that it once again sets women up for the idea that men are supposed to repeatedly pledge their undying love for them and do quirky soap opera type love gestures and that somehow their relationship is horrible if this doesn’t happen. But what I liked was that through it all, the memory loss, she may have reverted back to her old self at first, that in the end what she was before the accident occurred started to shine through. As I start my journey into a new decade in the coming months it often comes with reflection. And while some may say I might have had a mid-life crisis of sorts getting divorced, starting a new career, etc ( I left out the 5K to marathon/triathlon and eating Paleo that the rest of my mid-life … [Read more...]

I know, I know. Where have you been Peabody? The good news is that I have a little more income coming in the bad news is that I have zero extra time it seems as of late and well the blog falls under extra time activity. I’ll work on being better though as it heats up to almost 80F today that also makes me not want to bake. Enough of that…a little letter writing time. Dear Printer, I know it’s not possible to hate inanimate objects but you really are pissing me off. If you don’t stop giving me Printhead Error warnings and not printing even though I have followed your glorious step by step instructions to fix this problem repeatedly I am pretty sure I am going to go all Office Space on you’re a$$!!!! I don’t own a baseball bat but I sure as heck could do some serious damage with a hockey stick…something to keep in mind when you continue to defy me! Dear Check Out Lady at Target, First off six bottles of wine is not a TON of wine. What if I was having a party? … [Read more...]
