Torture? I Got Your Torture Right Here!

2 sick kids, a husband getting sick, a FIL very sick and MIL trying to fight whatever's attacking her and me? Yeah, I've spent entirely too much time in the bathroom. This is not a pretty house. Monkey Boy seems to be much better though he still has a cough. Peanut though, she's not good at all. She's coughing, throwing up, can't breathe through her nose at all, all crusty and blech. Her ears are so red and she's yanking on them so much. Our neice is sick and Fluffy, my SIL that shares a house with them, came home early from work sick. Hopefully they will all feel better soon. We may very well be watching the big game at our respective houses.

I ate half a package of Oreos 2 days ago and had a "Zebra Mocha" at Caribou yesterday. That's a lot of chocolate for someone who is allergic to it. I call it an allergy. Other people call it "your body just doesn't like it". Hmm. Same thing to me. I'll cut to the chase on what it does. It's like ExLax for me. I literally have to RUN to the bathroom. It's not pleasant. I know what my limit is and thought that the coffee would be crossing the line but went with it anyway. Grrr. Woulda coulda shoulda. Torture I tell you.

Doctors Appointment number 2 is this afternoon for Peanut. Hopefully we can get this all cleared up for her. She's sleeping now, thank goodness. Hope the bug doesn't get all of you.

I Can't Wait

I know of no one who agrees with me that Jason Mewes is hot. This is a bad example and this is definately NOT hot. That's ok though. I remember the good, forget the bad. I make no excuses for my taste*. For fans of Clerks , Chasing Amy , Dogma , Jay and Silent Bob , etc , check it out: P.S. I've been working 'til 11 or midnight most nights so I'm pooped. I'll blog more. I promise. Was I missed though? * Or lack thereof to some people

This, That and The Other

I can already tell that Thanksgiving and Christmas are going to suck ass even more than it normally would at my job. Last night, a guy was telling me how much he gave me, how much he was supposed to get back and THEN told me what order to give it back to him in. Um? Sir? I'm not a twit, ok, I am a twit, but I'm not an idiot. Ok, sometimes I can be. Like that time I moved up to Wisconsin in the middle of a blizzard from nice, warm Tucson, AZ for a dumb boy and we broke up less than two months later. Yeah that sucked but my point is: I've been in retail, just about every job one could have except store manager, for about oh, 19 years. I think I know what I'm doing when it comes to giving change back. Don't talk to me like I'm a 16 yr old kid who's working his first job and doesn't give a shit what kind of work ethic he has. I care about you as a customer but when you're a dick to me and pissing off everyone in my line so they are dicks to me ? Well, ...

This Has To Be Said

I haven't blogged in 8 months. We bought a house, still unpacking, school started. You know, life. I felt the need, the urgent need to blog about the Adrian Peterson situation today. I am full of all sorts of feelings and had to write about it. I would love to hear your thoughts on this whole thing. No really, I would. I don't feel I was a douchebag in my writing so all I ask is you not be a douchebag in your response. Thanks. My thoughts on the Adrian Peterson situation (but first, some backstory): I was spanked as a child. I'm pretty sure most of us that grew up in the 80s were. Until the summer between 5th and 6th grade I lived in Charelston, SC and from 6th to 11th grade, North Chicaco, IL. I have seen every form of discipline doled out on a child. I've seen spankings, beatings, hairbrushes smacked into heads, spoons hitting the tops of heads, whips, belts and even switches. I've seen it all. Most of you know that my son is named after a little boy who ...
