SOOO over it:
John and Kate + Eight: Baby popping reverse mullet angry mom and a spineless clueless Dad exploiting their kids, who will be able to Google them someday. And both have reportedly cheated on one another. And it all plays out on a “family channel.”
Supreme Court nominees: And its only been like a week. First of all, I’m pretty sure there are other traits to be considered other than stance on abortion, but you would not know it for the first several days of Obama’s announcement. Only now are we getting more background info but without any real questions being asked of the nominee or clarification all we get is media speculation and partisan fucktards chanting “racist.” Which brings me to…..
Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich calling anyone racist: Really? These two wind bags calling anyone racist is just the end all of hypocrisy. But I expect it to be lost on people like these who have their head so far up their asses that living in the real world is a long stinky journey they are unable to make.
Bad Movies: Just watched Paul Blart Mall Cop. Really, this made a lot of money??
OK, enough for now…..
What to do when people you work with want to “friend” you on facebook? I try to not blend my work and personal life. It is why I never disclose where I work anywhere online, here or FB, etc. With the exception of a few trusted work friends from my Michigan days, nobody from work knows about my little online ramblings home right here.
There are a few people from work I genuinely like but still it crosses a line. And you run into the problem of “friending” those that you like and then having others at work who are their friends discovering you on FB and wanting to be friends.
So I have made rules for “friending” people on FB. No coworkers, with the exception of one or two from my previous work home in Mich. And only being FB friends with people I would actually want to sit with and have a meal and the conversation that goes with.
I’ve got to slow down when scanning headlines. I totally misread “dice tossing granny sets craps record” Leave off one little “s” and it makes you do a double take.
Back at work after having a few days off and celebrating my birthday. Alison baked me a fabulous banana cake decorated with sliced bananas and chocolate frosting. It was very yummy. I fully expect a banana dessert each and every time I am at their house.
And after being off only a few business days I came back to 150+ emails. So any chance of productivity on the first day back goes out the window along with the common sense of most of the people sending the emails. I swear many people just type and type with the thinking it makes them look busy and necessary when in fact they are merely time wasters and not necessary in any way. But hey, type away because I can delete typed gibberish just as well as I can ignore spoken gibberish.
Finally….my birthday gets the recognition it deserves.
New coffee pot (thanks ABO and PKO)
Caffeine levels slowly returning to normal, mind clearing, life worth living again.

Bruce Springsteen at Mellon Arena, grabbed a cell phone pic when the lights came up for a brief moment. Thanks to Laurie for a fun time!
Fun weekend, but as usual it went by too fast. I had to work on Saturday then had two softball games. My team was victorious in both games. Much beer was consumed in the hours following with team mates and other team players. I have not had a late night out like that in a while, so getting up Sunday morning was a bit more difficult than usual. But after finally rolling out of bed, Jeff and I went to Big Jim’s for a late and greasy but extremely yummy breakfast. And it was there I was able to snap today’s “Mary” pic for onlyinpgh.com. I then went back home, rolled back into bed and with Finnigan curled up next to me, took a nice long nap.
Also yesterday was a Mexican dinner for Paul’s upcoming birthday. It was very festive and the food was quite frankly a fiesta in my mouth.
I also was able to find time to get some resumes sent out so everyone send good vibes for me getting a better job and escaping the soul-sucking madness that now makes up my days.
Before turning in a bit early last night I was able to catch the Survivor finale and watch my favorite player win. And as much as I hate anyone but me getting a million dollars, he did deserve to win. Next I have to watch the final Amazing Race which I recorded.
Tonight I must do house cleaning and laundry, two tasks that were ignored this weekend amongst everything else going on.
Adios
Seriously, why is this guy still yapping. Go back to your bunker….DICK.
When does one cross that line. I’m talking about that line at work where no matter what the economy is doing, no matter what else is going on, when your work spills over and affects your quality of life, when one is just forced to say “enough.” I have one foot in the air crossing that line. Seriously it’s become that toxic.
