Things I hate..

Things I hate:

Tailgaters on a busy freeway. Especially when there is nowhere else for them to go on the road (ex. "California Road Block") It makes my blood boil. Stupid female drivers. If they are in that big of a hurry, they should have left 5 fucking minutes ago and not waited till the last minute.

Borring day...

My goodness, yet another borring day. Just kill me, please?! I could be at home studing for my test on Thursday, or reading a book. Ugh. Seriously now.

Awesom-o does not understand...

Ah. Thank goodness this day is finally over. I think I did the most boring work all day. I have the wonderful pleasure of going thru all the accounts from the old Orangevale office and auditing them to see if all the patients paid what they should have (since Dr Froh took over the office, all hell broke loose... I don't know how any claims got paid thru him) and if the insurance paid too... Plus I have to do care plan write offs and make sure that everything has been entered in right. I am making it sound easier then it is only because it is the most boring and time consuming job. I think today I managed to get thru 6 patient files but I did manage to write off about $20k that should have been. Now, I have about $94k left to look at. Joy.

Now I spend my evening on the couch watching last nights episode of South Park (the one when the kids are 'cheesing' and Cartman is like all of a sudden a Schindler of the town hiding out the outlawed cats of the town)... Which, might I add, was awesom-o; searching for random crap via Google and aimless waiting to see if "the bag of crap" comes up on woot.com. I don't know what will come with the bag of crap, but I hear that it can be super awesome. Maybe I will wait in the room... In bed... All warm and cozy : )

That's baby making music...

Bleh. I need to update some more. If only work and school weren't so time consuming... I have come to a relization tho today while sitting at my desk/ workspace:

I have decided that I don't want any kids... Atleast not untill I am like in my late 20's... And once I have come to actually tollerate the sound of kids crying. Till that time comes, no making babies for this girl.

Things I love: #62...

Thing I love:

The song "Me So Horny" by 2Live Crew... It has got to be the stupidest song in the world but it puts a smile on my face for some reason.


Maybe it's because of how desperate the lyrics are. Eh. Oh well. Fuck it, lol.

The world would be a better place...

if only i could find the perfect balance between:
-blogging
-crocheting
&
-studing



ugh.


this weekend fo-sho.

Photos for fun...

So,
Super Troopers is on Comedy Central right now. I think I have seen that movie about a hundred times and I love it more and more each time. Oh snaps, Paul just changed it to Saturday Night Live. I am not an Ellen Paige fan, but the opening with Andy Samberg was pretty damn funny... He was making fun of Diablo Cody. It was awesome.


Here are some random pictures of things filling up space on my damn cell phone:

Capt. O'Hagan: I swear to God I'm going to pistol whip the next guy who says "Shenanigans."
Mac: Hey Farva what's the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit on the walls & the mozzarella sticks?
Farva: You mean Shenanigans?
Mac: OOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
Thorny: OOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
[as they hand the Captain their pistols]

Yeah, Paul & I went out to Gottschalks a few weeks ago to return something that Paul's Grandmother had bought him which didn't fit. As we were walking around looking for something else to use the gift card on, I saw a pair of shorts with this tag... Love it. How random of a company name.

On a drive home sometime last week, while I was enjoying the stupidity of my fellow drivers on Business 80 East, I happened to look out my drivers side window and saw a flat bed truck with a chopper on it... I've never seen that before on the road. I was more surprised that I managed to take a decent picture while driving.

I usually take the stairs when I leave the office for lunch or when I go home (since I am a slacker and don't exercises as much as I would like... I know "excuses, excuses".) On one of my excursions down the stairs, I happened to look down at the ground and saw this piece. One word: Yuck City. The funny thing is that my co-worker saw it too a few days before I did... Atleast 3 days. Now bad. Shows how much those slackers clean every night.

I am thinking about picking up these books in the near future. I think this is the same guy who did the book Wicked. I have so many other books to finish first tho... I think I should finish the book I have by Charles Bukowski called "Post Office"
I was headed to school some time last week and when I found a random place to park, I looked back and saw 2 other Ford Focus' next to me... Small world. Mine is on the far left tho. I think it is the nicest of the bunch.

fuck-nuts!

ugh. i wish someone one would have put up a spoiler alert on wikipedia when i search for project runway! i know who is going home before fashion week...

i sold 3 more things c/o half.com... a book and 2 cds! i have so much more that i need to get rid of... but every little bit helps, right?

Seriously...

OMG...

Ugh, how I hate using that phrase but I feel like I gotz too (it's the only thing that can describe how I feel)! I feel like I have been on crack all day... Jittery [check]... Heightened senses [check]... Nauseated [check]... Something happened to me today and it hit me like a ton of bricks.



fuck@!

We sit & grow our roots into the floor... But what are we waiting for?///

A lunch-time quicky:

• I didn't get the job at Pension Planners that I interviewed for last Monday. Bummer, huh? I called the lady back today to ask her what is going on & she said that "the position has been filled"... It's all my fault for waiting & for being to scared to take any time off... All I can do now is learn from my mistakes.
• Stupid McDonalds was out of soda today... I had to drink a water. Ugh. I can't stand the taste of french fries and bottled water... *yuck* But like I told the cashier, "this is a sign that I should be drinking more water."
• Got paid today $750 but that hardly covers the emotional bull shit I am constantly put thru on a daily basis. I am beginning to think that this place is where I am doomed to spend the rest of my stupid work career... I think I would rather die then go thru that. I have to keep my chin up & do all that I can to leave. It's my new mission in life.
• I am full of anger today. I am angry at the job I could have had, the stupid patients, me for being scared of everything... *sigh* I am an angry bear. No doubt about that.

Let's make love & listen Death From Above///

Ahhhh, another day is finally done (no sarcasm here!). I can't wait till the weekend is here all over again. Trust me, it is for my own good actually.

The recap:

• Seeing photos like this Beagle one makes me feel all happy. Maybe I am taking the thought if getting a dog too far but it gives me something to look forward to in my simple life . I have to wait till Paul & I get a house before anything happens. And like I have always said "A girl can dream, can't she?"

• 'The Office' is on right now on TBS. I can't wait till sometime in April when the show comes back on TV. My life of normalicy will be returning back shortly... Well, once 'Heroes' also comes back. & '30 Rock' too. [Edit] The guy who plays "West" on 'Heroes' was on 'The Office'. I got excited. Paul seems to know that I have a slight crush on him from his other work like the indy movie "Rocket Science." I can't help it.... Dark haired boys make my heart go 'boom.'

• I sold my first item on half.com which made me feel good. Now if only I could sell everything that I don't want online... I would be a nicer person. I only made $5 off it, but if I sold the other 15 books on there... cha-ching! The list is here, btw.

• It is raining outside... still. It's kinda strange, it has been beautiful outside for the last week or so & then today it rained & looked gloomy & shitty! At least my plants on the balcony are getting some much needed water.

• We made home made pizza for dinner tonight. We bought some pizza dough, sauce , cheese and peperoni from Trader Joe's the other night and also I bought a pizza stone from Bed Bath & Beyond. It turned out pretty good... I like more sauce, Paul likes more cheese tho. All in all, it was a hit! I think we are gonna need to add this to the rotation. I don't know if we should call the pizza 'Papa Beez' Pizza' or 'Poppy Pizza.'

• I haven't heard back from those other jobs... I must keep the faith tho.

-manda

& I can go on and on and on///

[Gnarks Barkley: 'Who Cares?']

Another day of random things:

• When ever I hear the song "Poison" by Bel Biv Devo, I always think of the episode from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia when "The Gang Dances Their Asses Off"... Every time that song comes on, I think of Mac trying to 'serve' Dennis.

• Since I am on the subject, when I hear the song "Analyze" by Thom Yorke, I think of the movie "The Prestige" with Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman. It's a catchy song & it is probably the most beautiful song I have heard in a long time.

• Bought a pizza stone from the wonderful Bed Bath & Beyond. Also bought pizza dough and pizza sauce from good ole' Trader Joe's while on our weekly grocery trip... Paul bought a rolling pin form Gottschalks. When we got home from our shopping trip, Paul opened up my pizza stone from the box which fell on the floor and broke. I had to drive back to the store and get a new one... I opened the box the second time :)

• Dreading going to class tomorrow... I don't want to know what my grade on my last quiz was. I don't know if I am gonna even get a passing grade in the class. But I am giving it my all right now, right?
  

Darkly Dreaming Dexter...

I wish the weekend were not so short as they have started to become lately. Since nothing eventful has happened, I figured I would just make some bullet points...

• Went to school on Saturday & worked on some photos in PhotoShop. I got bored & tired & left a little early. I just wish I had some time in the day to take more photos tho. Thinking of what photos to include in my final portfolio.

• Went to Capitol Park and tried to take pictures. Experimenting with exposures & the f-stops. Took a bunch of neat little photos of the plants (cacti mostly) & some monuments there. I wish there were roses in bloom. I would have loved to take a picture of them to add to my portfolio.

• Had a fight with Paul but will not go into details about that.

• Finished working on the baby gift for Lance & Jessica's baby girl. Now if only I knew when the Baby Shower was gonna be. I asked but, he didn't have any answers for me. Boo.

• Went to The Farmers Market in Sacramento this morning. Had so much fun looking at all the different produce & meat. We bought tiger shrimp, brocoli, spinich, apples, potatos, mushrooms, & I also got some flowers (like I need any more plants for the patio!) all for under $10.

• Got a new wireless keyboard & mouse combo which I have wanted for the longest time. Stupid Staples didn't have the set that was advertised for $14 (this is the second time we have gone there for something that was on sale which they did not have, the first was for a flat screen monitor). We went to Circut City to see if maybe they would have it. It turns out that they DID have what we wanted & they matched Staples price, so I got a $84 set for $14!!!! We are the best shoppers in the world. :)

• Thinking of making a book for Paul for either his birthday or our 2 year anniversary (which is in July). I am tossing around the idea of a Cookbook with all of the recipies that we have discoverd & now love and are in our roation... Or a book using all of his pictures from when he went to Italy durring Christmas of 2005.

• We watched Dexter on CBS for the heck of it... Waiting to see all the good things that the stupid sensors would get rid of... We were totally disappointed about how lame the language is now. We think that the language and the excessive use of blood is what makes the show what it is. Thank goodness that Paul downloaded the first 2 seasons.

• I spent $50 on some artwork, all on a whim. It is this pretty sugar skull print with a bright lime green background. I just wish I had my own home to put all the artwork I could. ::dare to dream::
