Redemption and Forgiveness

For the last couple weeks, I've been feeling really bad about my post regarding Jani Lane. I didn't say anything mean, just that I was shocked at how he looked now. You know how you root for the underdog and when they do well you almost want to cry? No? Well you're simply a heartless bastard! He got a haircut and I agree with my friend G, that helped a lot. He has done so well on this diet show. I'm so proud of him and I didn't even birth him. I know it's hard to go through tough times with seemingly no support but he totally has my support and has had it in the past. I just had to deal with the shock. So Jani Lane of Warrant....I still love you, always will. Thank you for being an inspiration to a lot of people. Good luck with the sobriety. It's a tough road but it can be done. Ok enough sentimental shit. I gots me a nap to be taking.

If I Wasn't Afraid of Getting Fired

Don't be a smart ass to me in the bar. If I say I need your ID, hand it over. Yes you will screw your friend out of their shit too. Snap at me again girl when your man comes in and you wait outside the department because "he's buying it not me - I don't have to show you mine". How many other freaking stores are there that sell liquor? WHAT? There are others?!? YES! Take your sorry ass to one of them. I don't make the rules, I enforce them. (I felt so empowered as I was typing that. Bring me a punching bag Myrtle!) I know you're 50 and not 14. You think I don't hear enough of this shit ALL DAY LONG? No I need one more asshole before I close. Thanks. If I say thanks and have a good night/day/one, don't stare at me blankly. I may just have to tell you to have a shitty day. I don't care. And for the record, yes I do card the 80 and 90 year olds that come in. And no dumbass, I don't card the 6 year olds. They didn't help Poppy pick out what ...

Please Do Not Bathe In Your Cologne, Thanks

I ask that you think before leaving for a small confined area where others may possibly pass out from the fumes. If I think for a moment that I have too much on (cause we all know the person wearing can't smell it just like a smoker can't smell other smokers usually unless it's been a few days since a smoke, then they want to mug the smoker for one but I digress)I usually ask someone if the smell is too strong. Unless it's Drakaar (YUM-UMM-YUMMY) please back off the spritzer, thanks! Other pieces of advice: If you turned 21 in the last two years, don't get all self rightous and pissed off when I card your ass. Wait til you're 80, then bitch. If you're underage, sit your ass in the car. I don't want to hear the "Oh he's buying it I'm not drinking it" shit. When I say you have 5 minutes before you can't purchase more, that means 300 seconds and not a single one more. As much as I would like to say that I did this to my child, I canno...

The Bible and Us

So the bible arrived the other day (and I totally just reminded myself I had to leave feedback!). I've been reading it thoroughly and God willing, it will work. I'm impressed with the fact that the authors originally did this program to teach the mentally challenged to dress, feed and go to the bathroom on their own. When they realized that it worked so well for them, they thought why not a toddler? It looks like a great program that Donovan can follow. Kirk and I were talking about when we should do this. Wait until we move or just do it now? If he regresses when we move then we can just do it again (if it works that is). I think we'll be trying it in a couple weeks since Kirk will be out of town for a few days with interviews and whatnot. I was brave (and impatient) the other day and shaved Donovan's head without the hubby around to distract the child and make him happy. It didn't go anywhere near as bad as I had planned it to. The news of a bath right after made ...

Premonition Baby

I've been saying from the day she was born and her red hair was flaming at us that Sophia was going to be a handful. I couldn't tell you when it will happen but mark my words, it will. There's nothing we can do to prepare for it. Kirk was holding her just now and she was squirming per the norm, trying to climb over his shoulder, her two teeth grinning at him with buckets of drool pouring out. He called her a wild woman and I started to say that she is way wigglier (it's a word now!) than Donovan ever was. She is going to be more obstinate and independant than the boy. I tried to get this visual across to Kirk and he interrupted me and said, "Bite your tongue woman! If she's worse than him, I'll be in a mental institution this time next year!" I think he's scared. I KNOW I am. We all should be. Even you, thinking you're not going to be affected. Oh it'll make it's way to you, yes indeedy.

And Of Course.....

my Cowboys lost. Good to see they're consistent. With LOSING. What a long football season this will be. I'll be sure to work the Mon night that Minn and Green Bay play. I don't need to be at home listening to the screaming at the tv even though the refs can't hear you even if you drop 17 F bombs. Better make sure the baby is out of the room. When Donovan was still a newborn, the Stanley Cup finals were on, last game of the series and there was a bad call. Kirk was holding Donovan, he let the tv know in no uncertain terms how displeased he was then Donovan proceeded to tell his father how frightened he was. Kirk felt so bad for making Donovan cry so bad. I felt bad for both of them. More so for the kid of course. =0)

Let The Potty Training Begin

We're not sure if we're ready but here we go. Hopefully I'll win this "Potty Training in Less than a Day" book on eBay. I think Donovan is ready, he knows about the potty chair, likes to sit on it (clothed and nekkid). He knows the difference between the different functions. Should be interesting. I received my two sign language books that I won on eBay and am excited to start learning. Now that I have the first 5 Harry Potter books read, I'll have the time to get started. I'm looking forward to that! I have a customer at my work that is deaf and I would love to surprise her some night by signing something more than hi or thank you. Her daughter and grandaughter come with her all the time and they are just great people. Maybe I can get Donovan to learn some and later on Phia as well. Donovan already knows how to count to ten in English, Spanish and German. He knows how to count only to three in French but that's 'cause that's all I know. Oh wel...
