October 30 Birthday blahsYou know, there used to be a time when spaces updated your profile automatically when you had a birthday...but not anymore. Now you have to do it manually, which I feel is kind of adding insult to injury. I mean, isn't it depressing enough to have a birthday that even my brother forgot? Now I have to manually update my profile and admit that I'm a year older. Geesh! Can't catch a break!
Yes ladies and gentlemen...the day has come and gone. Thirty-two. Blah. Of course, I guess if I look for the silver lining I can say that at least I made it to my birthday again. I guess that's always a good thing. I think what probably put me in a bad mood wasn't necessarily the birthday, but the fact that we had our first snow. Yes, that's it. I'll blame it on Mother Nature. Aren't you always supposed to blame the mother anyway?
I should not be so grumpy. I must work on that, I know.
Some of you know my annual tradition (that I started with I turned 30) of buying myself something from Tiffany's. The first year I bought myself a silver "B" necklace, and last year I bought a sliver ring. This year I think I'm going to get a sliver heart-tag charm bracelet, which I'll probably have engraved but I'm not sure on that yet. I was going to order it online (like I did the first year) but now I think I'll just wait until I go to NYC again. I am going for Christmas to visit my brother. I decided to take the train and I already have my ticket. Then I guess it could be kind of a birthday-Christmas present to myself. It's much more fun to actually go to the store too (like I did last year). I'm sure I'll let ya'll know what I decide.
Well, I should get going. I'm at work...so I guess maybe I should actually do some of that!!
Later!! October 27 Political fun (or truth?)You may have gotten this email yourself as it's going around...but if you haven't, you may find this little "story" quite humorous considering the upcoming election. A little boy goes to his dad and asks, "What is politics?" Day says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way: I am the head of the family, so call me The President. Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we call her The Government. We are here to take care of your needs, so we will call you The People. The nanny, we'll consider her the Working Class. And your baby brother, we will call him The Future. Now think about that and see if it makes sense." So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad had said. Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying so he gets up to check on him. He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper. The little boy goes to his parent's bedroom and finds his mother asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed. The next morning the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now." The father says, "Good son. Tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about." The little boy replies, "The President is screwing the Working Class while the Government is sound asleep. The People are being ignored and the Future is in deep shit!" Amen, brotha! October 19 Baby farts and BINGO! How pathetic is it that I: *Got excited that I got a killer deal on a 64 piece silverware set this weekend ($50 marked down from $129); *Am ADDICTED to Bingo Luau on Pogo.com; *Spent the entire day in my sweats and never took a shower (although I did brush my teeth!); and *Got so into watching farting babies on YouTube that I forgot to eat dinner (they are hilarious, BTW)? Yikes, now all I need is about 12 more cats and I'm set! Maybe it's a good thing that I have to get up and go to work in the morning. Here, but not Well, after several long phone calls to tech support...followed by (and proceeded by) several temper tantrums...then followed by several swigs from the tequilla bottle...I'm finally online at home and it is FINALLY working great! Yeah! Now if I could only come up with something interesting to blog about I'd be golden. Oh well. We can't have it all! I'll try to come up with something and get back to ya'll! Take care... October 06 Good News!!Starting October 13th I should FINALLY (hopefully) be moving into the 21st century! That is the day I can install and hook up my DSL internet at home!! That's right folks...I live in the stone ages...but hopefully not for too much longer. Please keep your fingers crossed. I'm trying to not get too excited about it, to try and save myself the major disappointment, in case it doesn't work...but truth be told, I'm excited as all freakin' get out!! (Whatever the hell that means!)
Soooo...this means that I will be able to post more often because I can do it from home instead of at work (like I'm doing right now...shhhh...don't tell). Be patient, bear with me...and maybe...just maybe...I'll actually be able to use the internet at home soon!! It's been almost three years since I could do that...can you feel my excitement?
Of course, if it doesn't end up working...stand back and watch the wrath of Bridget!! She can be one tough bitch when she needs to be! |
