Most of us have made it here alive and in one peice.
Some of us made it here sober.
I'm sitting here slightly after midnight, enjoying my first cup of hot coffee of 2006, and wishing I didn't have to go to work tomorrow.
I'm also wishing I was very druk and partying my ass off right now instead of on the computer being lame.
Some things will never change.......

YummY!'s New Do
So, to those of you who have been here before, whadda think of the new look?
Aliens...yes? Not what I was looking for (I was actually looking for something for my writing blog) but I though...hell, I've had a yummy down banner on BE with and alien on it forever, why not have aliens on my blog.
Speaking of BE.....
I found out today that I can't rent my blog because its marked as being an "adult" blog. I pouted for a bit over that one. I wanted to join the renting fun.
And just now, typing this, I wonder if I'll be allowed to space on OTHER blogs with this one, with it being such an "adult" blog and all....cause I've been trying to save up credits to rent out the Shitty Blogs Club space.
Somehow I managed to be off work tomorrow. Its funny, I got New Years Eve off. Most people would be thrilled off their asses. I'm just annoyed becasue my husband will be home all day.
We never do anything on New Years except shoot off fireworks...and this year we coudln't even afford to buy fireworks. (Had too many pesky bills to pay, including a gas bill that was about $100 more than it should have been because some fuckwit read the meter wrong.)

YummY! Out Loud.....sort of.
So, I signed up for this Skype thing that I heard about on Shitty Blogs Radio (among other places).
I thought, hey, I can talk to whoever else has it and it wont cost me a damn thing. At the very least I can get my brother to sign up and talk to him free of those painful long distance bills....becasue I love my bubba and dont talk to him much.
If you have Skype and want to try to talk to me (I say TRY becasue I have no clue what I'm doing) I'm Nonersays on it....not YummY!.
I couln't decide at first, then I went with Nonersays, because 98% of my internet people know me as Noner.
The trick is for me to remember to turn it on when Robert isn't around watching TV so I can talk back.

The Dullness of Me
I woke up around 7 this morning and thought the light in my room looked VERY funny. Strange.
Like I had slipped into another dimension where the world glowed pink.
I looked out of my bedroom window, and the entire sky was pink. Not just where the sun was rising, but the ENTIRE sky.
Once aware of that fact I yawned, pissed, and went back to bed.
Pink sky or not, 7 is too early for me. (I’m NOT a morning person.)
Add to that a gas bill that’s about $100 more than it should be, and 5 hours of me playing a computer game, and you have my day in a nutshell.
****
I’m basking in the post-Christmas glow. Ready to take down my Christmas decorations, eager for it to be new years.
God, please let this year end soon!

So this is christmas....
Just 2 days before Christmas.
Just 6 minutes before I leave for work.
What do those two time periods have in common? NEITHER of them make me happy.
I'm about 100% grinch this year.
I want to take my tree down now. I sick of looking at it.
I want to give the next person at work who tells me "Have a Merry Christmas" the finger, because I know that inside they are laughing at me.
"You have to work and I dont' ha-ha" their false smiles jeer at me.
Today, a child ran circles around me. Around the entire aisle I was in actually. Through kids crafts, to the dollar bins, round and round and round.
At one point I though about how painfully funny it would be if I stuck my foot out and...oopsie...kid falls down.
Oh how horribly, horribly badly I wanted to do that.
I didn’t though.
Sometimes it sucks that I’m the better person. It would be so much more fun to be an asswipe.

I can't be bothered to spell check tonight....
It recently came to my attention that I've been blogging here a year.
One whole year of this pointless blather.
And most of it wasn't even blather. Most of it was pointless pictures or me not saying a damn thing.
Thus is the world of blogging.
I tried once to have an "interesting" blog, then I remembered that I'm the worlds dullest person. The most I can hope for is for someone to get a giggle out of my customer rants, but you can only REALLY appreciate them if you've worked retail, and if you're one of the customers I rant about (or have done similar things) then you just get pissed off.
Better to be pissed off than pissed on, someone once said and alot of people have repeated.
Whoever said it to begin with must have never heard that there are people with a "Golden Showers" fetish. (Thats just sick. Ewwww.)
So, I settled on being a "Day in the Life" blogger, and it makes me feel like a little girl with a diary with pink pages scribbling in mundane things and calling it a journal.
None of you give a shit about a day in my life. None of you.
I know this because I never get comments. (I'm SUCH a comment whore.)
I know where this blog has been, I know where it is now, I have no clue where its going.
Have a good night. Come again soon.

Of Bitches with Buggys and Bad Christmas Juju
Okay, just in case anyone out there DIDN'T know, I work in a retail store. A retail arts and crafts store. I work in ALL departments, but they mainly keep me in the seasonal department, because thats where the people need the most help.
Its the BUSIEST department in the store, espically since the "season" right now is Christmas. The customers are many, like bess in a hive or ants in a hill. Theres hardly any floor space there to begin with because of the Christmas displays, and what space that does still exist is full of housewives with shopping carts.
Part of my job in this busy, busy area of the store is to put up stock.
We stock 24 hours a day. Literally. There are people there while the store is open putting stock out. There are people there when the store is closed putting stock out. We can hardly keep up with the demand.
And when I'm stocking I must have boxes. Its hard to find places to put the large stacks of boxes we have.
And to stock I must have me and at least one box wherever the stock must go.
Well, one day I had to put stock on the BOTTOM shelf of a rack facing the MAIN aisle on the Seasonal side of the store.
That means...I had to get on the floor where the most buggys are going by.
Of course I was bumped into by several buggys. That is going to happen. And to their credit, MOST people apologized and went on by when I moved to let them pass. One lady even came back by about 5 times to apologize AGAIN for having bumped into me.
Then there was the bitch.
She didn't bump into me so much as she SLAMMED into me. The first time I gave her a little credit that it was an accident, and I was in the process of getting up to let her pass when she pulled her cart back a little and this time forcefully SLAMMED it into me again. The second time there was no doubt that it was not an accident. She purposefully hit me with her shopping cart.
After that I stopped trying to get up so she could pass. My first instinct was to leap off the floor and rip her throat out. Instead I just sat there, very much in her way, and gave her a look that would have withered a cactus.
She just made that rude tooth sucking noise, rolled her eyes and backed up to go another way.
If she had hit me a third time I would have called the manager and ask for something to be done about her assulting me.
I have a fucking lump and bruise on my leg from where she smashed her cart into me the second time.
More Orange Kool-aid, The Cellphone/ass connection, djs who hate their listners
Due to the earlier mentioned incident with Orange Kool-aid, my keyboard is still sticky. It still works, but the buttons stick down. Funny thing is that with every passing day the sticky gets worse.
So, tomorrow i'm going to take it apart and soak the key part of the keyboard in warm water. Seeing as how nothign MECHANICAL is in that part, its all plastic, I should be able to safely get rid of the sticky.
Anyway, in honor of the renegade glass of orange kool-aid, I demand that you all go visit Orange Pulp, because its alot less dull than my own blog.
If you're still reading this, you didn't visit Orange Pulp. Shame on you.
...
Went to see the Narnia movie yesterday. Had THREE cellphones go off during the movie. I'm highly tempted to shove the next cell phone that goes off while I'm watchign a movie up the ass of the cellphone's owner.
TURN THE FUCKING CELLPHONE OFF.
If you can't do without it for the 2 and 1/2 hours it takes to sit through a film, then stay the fuck home so the rest of us who do not depend on our cellphones ringtone to keep us alive can enjoy the film we payed too much to go see.
Intense scenes loose much of their intensity when the Lone Ranger theme bleeps out at you.
...
It interesting just how many djs on Mango Radio proclaim their hatred of their listeners. Being a listener of 2 of those listner hating dj's, I'm slightly offended. I say slightly, becaue I'm to tired right now to do anything more than slightly. That, and becaue I take everything they say with a grain of salt, and because somehow when they say, "Fuck you, listners" somehow it doesn't sound as bas as when my customers say, "Fuck you, you ignorant bitch."

Fevers, the orange koolaide incident, blog orgasims and gnomes
Apparantly my site is "broken" in firefox.
I did all I knew how to do to fix it. I was informed it still broken. I'm out of ideas.
I spent and hour and a half browsing different blogger templates. I didn't find one that suited me.
I like the idea of a mushroom/ladybug theme. I'm also liking the idea of a vampire making its kill theme. YummY! Down on This indeed. (Have I mentioned my vampire fetish here recently?)
I'm running a fever, so that doesn't help much with my decision making process.
I tried to write something tonight and it came out pure shit.
I spilled orange koolaide on my keyboard. My keyboard still works, but the keys are sticky and hard to push down.
Oh! A gnome theme would kick ass too! I love gnomes! If I could get a combo gnome/ladybugg/mushroom theme I'd probably die of a blog orgasim or something.

Pet Names, Good Music, Scalded Boobies
This just served to remind me that Robert's pet name for me used to be Sugarbumps. Thats probably something to be ashamed about.
I'm listening to Utopia's show on Mango Radio as I sit and type this. Good stuff. Always good stuff. You shoudl listen some time. She's on every Sunday at 9pm EST.
Meanwhile I spilled hot chocolate down the front of my shirt, so now my feet are cold but my titties are scalded.
Okay, just in case anyone out there DIDN'T know, I work in a retail store. A retail arts and crafts store. I work in ALL departments, but they mainly keep me in the seasonal department, because thats where the people need the most help.
Well, one day I had to put stock on the BOTTOM shelf of a rack facing the MAIN aisle on the Seasonal side of the store.
