Just one of those days....

As soon as I couldn't drag my ass out of bed this morning I knew it was going to be one of those days where I should have just stayed in bed.

::warning lots of negative talk to come::

My day.....

I got a bloody nose in the shower.

Put on the clothes I picked out last night and felt like a fool so I had to change.  I couldn't find the tank top I wanted which resulted in my dresser drawer being ripped apart.

I almost fell asleep driving TO work.

I had to print up sub plans for a co-worker who is out with the stomach bug- fine- but another co-worker was bugging me during the process and following me around-Please stop!

All morning long I couldn't stop thinking about how badly I needed to go the bank.

My class wouldn't shut the fuck up and I already had no patience to begin the day with.

I had what felt like a gazillon things to do during my short 45 minute prep time and no energy to do them.

I had a conference after school which lasted for 40 minutes.

I finally was able to drive to the bank along with everyone else in the world who was getting out of work.

I sat in traffic on my way home.

I have a new bridesmaid dress that doesn't fit me.  I have to get it fixed.  I can't stop worrying about the cost and the time it is going to take.

I had to stop at the store to buy a few things we needed badly.  People popped up out of no where with their stupid carts and stood there while I was trying to rush around.

I got home and remembered the 6 articles I had to read which were 6 pgs, 7 pgs, 12 pgs, 20 pgs, 22 pgs and 30 pgs long for class this Saturday.

I have class again Saturday.

It is late and I want to sleep but I also want to see my husband.

This is a huge list of things that went wrong but right now there isn't much going right for me.  So much for being pumped for an amazing 2010.  Yeah, it is just he beginning but I still have 4 months until the hellish part is over.

I am rambling and don't even know what I am talking about anymore.

I could scream until my throat bleeds right now.

Friend Makin' Monday- The Superbowl

My friend Amber is hosting another round of Friend Makin' Monday! This week she is asking us about the Superbowl!

Did you watch the Super bowl?  Yes!


If so, who were you rooting for?  The Saints.  No Patriots fan would ever root for the Colts... if they did I'l hunt them down.


Where did you watch it/not watch it? From the comfort of my living room with hubby and Daisy!


What did you eat? Cheese and Crackers, Queso and tortilla chips, pizza bites, veggies, buffalo wings.. yeah we ate a lot of this- it was our dinner!


Favorite Superbowl commercial: I thought the career builder one with the "casual Fridays" was hilarious!!!

Least favorite: Emerald nuts- the creepy man in the leotard making people do tricks for snacks... WHAT!


What did you think of the half time show? I didn't pay much attention to it.  I started to correct and plan for the week.  

Who do you wish would have been the half time show? Lady Gaga would have been neat to see! Even though I think she is a weirdo it would have been interesting to watch!

What about you? 

Join in! 

Sunday Share

I have been meaning to share with you the information about a wonderful ring that got sent my way....

I was contacted a few weeks... maybe a month ago by someone from Tungsten Carbide Rings who asked if I would mind putting their link on my blog.  I checked out the website and everything seemed good, so I agreed.  Little did I know that they would want to send me a ring as a thank you for doing that.  I really wasn't expecting that nor did I need any kind of compensation but he insisted.

So, I went back to their website and picked out a ring that I liked.  I got it in the mail a week later and I have been wearing it ever since!  It is so comfortable and so smooth and shiny I just can't stop touching it!  People have noticed this new shiny ring and have asked about it.

The company never asked me to post about it but I can't help myself, this ring is amazing and the person I was working with was kind and quick to respond.  I know that if I ever need a simple but beautiful in the future I could go to them and get exactly what I want.

I just posted this in my 365 blog Friday but here is the ring I have been wearing every day since I got it in the mail....

In my dreams.

Ever feel like you just don't belong where you are?  I don't mean with a group of people.  I mean where you are living?

Yesterday I had this weird morning where everything felt disjointed and messy.  It finally hit me when I was driving to a friend's house and I saw people walking down Main Street with their jackets pulled up close to their faces, steam pouring out of their noses as they breathed out.... I don't belong in New England.  I belong in a land where it is warm year round... a land that has sunshine most of the time but enough rain that you can fall asleep to it's sweet pitter-patter against your window.  I am already craving summer and it just the beginning of February.  I am screwed.  It doesn't really warm up here until about June.

If you look in my closet you will find a few dozen t-shirts, fun tank tops and capris.  You will find few long sleeved shirts, sweaters and pants.  This is not only because the clothes that once fit this new body of mine don't fit any more, but because of the fact that I pretty much hate winter and the clothes that come with the season.  I love walking around with flip flops or nothing at all.  Feeling the cool ground beneath my feet, the grass or sand between my toes. I love the sunshine touching my shoulders and warming me up.

I know, at this moment in time, I can't move to this land I so desire, but some day... Some day I will live there and I will love it and I will be happier than I am now.  Until then... I'll just live there in my dreams.

I am SO happy it is Friday!

This week has been long.  Like two weeks slammed in one week kind of long.  Like I want to call in dead long. Like any kind of issue a child can have happened this week long.  Looooong. 

Well, the end is finally here! It is Friday!

Not only do I get to wear jeans today but I get to eat bagels and enjoy breakfast with my work friends.  Not only do I have Art this afternoon but we also have a Guidance class after art which means I get to stop dealing with my students for 2 hours straight! This is MUSIC to my ears!

I am also really happy because I'll finally get a weekend of fun instead of a weekend of driving to graduate class and work!

One thing I am NOT happy about is the super shitty 3 year contract that just got passed yesterday for teachers.  It is complete bullshit and most of the teachers are bullshit about it... but that is a story I won't be sharing.

Regardless of what is going on- IT IS FRIDAY!!!! HAPPY DANCE times a kerbillion!
