I feel like I'm neglecting my blog and stuff. I don't wanna do that. So what to talk about...oh yeah! The weekend cool. I spent friday night taking care of the house and then hitting HH with my bois at Nellies. We then went to Logans for some grub and called it a night. I didn't wanna get trashed because I had a 15mile challenge Saturday. I OWNED IT! I FUCKING OWNED IT!! From my parents house in Springfield I ran to Burke Lake, around Burke Lake twice and then back home. Well when I say ran, I mean jogged and paced myself. The end result was sooo sweet and the whole day all I wanted to do was eat eat eat!
Spent that afternoon with my best friends at belvoir. I was tired so went home and HOLY HELL! Why isn't the AC workin?!? Ummmm....damn thing is broken. So I called the warranty company to send someone out. Monday morning the guy told me I had the wrong thermostat and that I have a heat-pump, thus needing a heat pump thermostat. That'll be $100. *Ca-CHING*. So went to HomeDepot to swap the thermostats. Hmmmm the one I bought a month ago they don't make anymore $70 *FLUSH*...Programmable touchscreen/heat-pump friendly thermostat $100 *Ca-CHING*. So...still no A/C, out $270....and it's a HI 90 weekend. Oh yeah I'm hot. Tuesday comes around (day 4 no AC)...someone is scheduled to come Thursday morning to check the exhaust lines. My mom stops by and I am not friendly and neither is jackie. We are exhausted and want a house that functions. So my mom plays with the thermostat, turns the air on and says "How much are you gonna pay me". She got the AC on!! I hugged her sooo tight and now owe here a nice NICE meal this friday (yum yum!)
La vida dirty....that's all for now

Resets more than an original NES
Yes yes....i'm not an art major but at my job I do have some leisure! LOL (hope my boss doesn't read my blogs! LOL) Anyways...so my 4th inferior Products on demand loves to stop in the middle of a song and go to the menu. Personally I thought that the damn thing had an attitude with my choice of music (which from what my friends say is totally understandable...and you all suck too! But moving on...). This is a known issue with Apple! *...blink blink...*
ummm
ok....so WTF is the fix?!? Lemme go ahead and fast forward the "genius" bar dicussion
...blah blah..reset? ...blah blah...restore? ..blah blah..upgrade software? ...blah blah...steve jobs a hummer?
And I've done all that! And I still don't know how the last "troubleshooting" tip *hee hee* gets my iPod working but I'm not one to question the "geniuses" there. So here I found the article of 200 damn bullets. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8888918
You should be able to scroll to the end of these damn things and have it say "You're Fucked" if there isn't an answer.
Gawd dammit Apple! If I wasn't such a fuckin sheep I'd...I'd! oooooooooooooOOOooH! (sips double tall skim no foam extra hot latte). So I'm gonna see some overweight, glasses, goatee 17yo named Sasha to hopefully swap out this iPod with something that works. I'll fuckin slap Billy or Sasha if they make me walk out the store with my current iPod and some weak ass advice. And you people want me to get an iPhlop?!? L...M...F...A...O! As if fuckin meself in the arse with my music isn't bad e-nuf, lemme go ahead and toss communications in there too! F that!
Ok....that's enuf about me bitching over stupid shit! God Bless America! iLuv that it's STUPID shit like this I get to bitch about, and not real world problems! Good life! Good Life!

just a glass of water and an almond, please
...sometime I feel like that is the story of my life. I try to hard to maintain healthiness...Cut down on sodium, give up cokes (haven't had a diet soda in like a week now), exercise, limit fried foods, eat more salads and veggies, have natural sugars.
I think back growing up how I use to eat what I wanted and how fat I was. It's that mental image that drives me to continue to strive for the slimmer me. I know I'm not alone in this, but (pretty woman moment) when you get put down enough you start to believe it. When does your mind finally say, you know what...I'm satisfied with my appearance? I accept people (unless ur scary or clingy) as they are and it helps that I surround myself with people who do the same. I also have my princess moments where If I'm with someone I know really well, we just gotta be rock stars. But I digress....no matter what positive comments I hear from people, friends and family...I don't see what they see. My eyes always see this guy about to put on weight, and I have to stop him.
It would be my dream to have that perfect bod in magazines just so I could be like "OMG! Yes! It's all mine". But deep down I'd rather keep what I got and be satisfied with it. If only my eyes could see that I have the perfect bod, then maybe my mind would be n'sync.
Apart from that, the house is getting better and better. I need to do face plates this weekend. Tomorrow my desk arrives and I'll need to set that up in the loft. The loft will then be complete. I may take a reg chair until I find the right mesh computer chair for upstairs...it's a lil cramped, but not too cramp. The loft is my favorite place (as someone guessed on my facebook site) because I share the house with my sis...and the only privacy I have is my bedroom. Everything else is open to the both of us, but my bedroom is mine. So I am getting attached to my loft.
Housewarming party? Man I hope soon! My sis has had some of her friends over and I've invited a couple peeps to show the progress, but I guess I'm waiting on her to say "Ok let's do it". Mostly because it'll be more her friends than mine. I know of all the friends I invite no matter what, Chris and Tiff will show up. And that rocks! My other buddies *lol* naaah! Swing n a miss...
Interview today went well, I answered a lot of their questions correctly. So....SNAKES! Yes, lets talk about snakes! I e-mailed them salary requirements for their network reviewer position. I was being interviewed for a windows' reviewer position...ok, what's the difference? 15k. So *the nerve* they brought me there to do the hook-n-bait. Basically told me about the job, training and all the traveling I can expect. They just couldn't meet my salary range. That is what a snake is...so I smiled and told them that I would have to take their offer into consideration before making a decision. I was disappointed in EDS (for the second time). This is the 2nd time I got so close with EDS and that was it. They make the temp-perm contracting companies not look so bad. So it was a great opportunity to interview and as much as I study DNS over and over again, it's fuckin useless knowledge unless I'm doing it (dammit! I miss being a sys admin!). So I'm sticking with the DOS until something better pans out...to bad about EDS. The road warrior gig just sounded right. Only plus I could see is that I would break into IT Security at the same pay and then advance from there. I also met my potential boss and he seemed sorta rigid too. Maybe that is because of interviewing, but I'm not so sure. Alright time for some ZZzzzz.

Last day of therapy
Right....so I decided yesterday that today will be my last session with Dr. Knep. I'm feeling it to be more of a drag and since therapy is suppose to be helpful and not a burden I've decided to let things be for now.
I can say that for the four months I have learned and (although not fully developed) planted a seed of knowledge to Mr. Sanchez...I've brought understanding and some enlightment towards my Love life and personal life. I am no longer the desparate mess I was back in November (and thank God for that! I hated listenin to that fuckin Tattoo song and bursting in tears, not understanding why my heart and head can't be N'sync). My heart and head may never ever get to where I want them to go. But if I can learn to look, crawl, walk, dance and then run I will have my life a TON easier when it comes to friendships and romance.
I'm going to buy a red ring and whenever I feel the urge to rush situations, take a look at it and play it cool. What else did I learn. Well...I'm still not great at this step. Talking about my feelings. I know and accept that people have different personalities and that if I don't explain what is going on in my head that my friends are not Nostradamus. I've learned that my feelings of guilt should be explored on a two way street (not just on Dirty St). There are so many more things to say but I'm going to withhold and focus on what/where I need to go next?
Finishing up my townhouse is a good start. Morning Jogs, coffee/lunch dates with friends, reading (pleasure or educational) before work....work, hit the gym and then go home. Friday or Saturday I will hit the SportRock gym up and climb.
Things in the future I'm looking forward to:
* A housewarming party
* BB visiting in May
* Turning 21 for the 7th time
* 3/4 day weekend in San Antonio, LA, San Fran or Biloxi
Friday night I'm thinkin of either scopin out the Haunting in Connecticut or 12 Rounds. Regal Potomac Yards. I can't believe it's only Tuesday...hurry the hell up Friday! LOL!

Ready for some R&R
Rather than blog about how the weekend turned out lemme just do a tenative plan. This weekend my parents are flying to Phoenix to place my grandmother with my grandfather. They will hold a small memorial in Phoenix for her and then fly back Sunday. So I won't be doing the family thing (it's done and I move forward). I've got a basement to finish up and maybe paint (I'm toying with that idea).
Friday night I'm going to take Tiffany (co-worker) to TOWN. She's never done the drag show bit, so we'll do that ( I won't get wasted since I gotta drive back ). Saturday is again working on the house, maybe do a bit of rock climbing in the afternoon followed by cleaning up the bedroom and bathroom.
Don't I just wish I could wave a wand and have the place be done already? Yeah! I do wish that! So nothing big this weekend...just simplicity! Next Saturday I know for sure me and jos are gonna rock climb, laser tag, eat good pasta and then prolly hit the cinema. I'm hopin for a good crowd but the wicked awesome thing bout this event is there will be tons of peeps climbing and shootin that if it ends up bein a small crowd it won't be a big disappointment.
Aight gotta work work work *BLAH*
