I lup my family


Aaron, if I could've photo-shopped this picture in the other one I would have...haha OOOOh I love you guys :D

boredom....not really worth reading :)

i am officially bored.
i have beat my record of 14 straight wins on freecell. I'm up to 17 games...and am needing a break. My eyes are going crossed.
i've found that because i've played so much freecell, solitaire is extremely difficult to play now. so that's out of the question.
hearts is one of those games that no matter how much i try to stratigize i always end up last place. playing the computer is such a tease and no one always wants to loose...hearts is out too. :)
and that leaves zuma. zuma is a game where these balls go round and round and you have to get three colors in a row to eliminate them. well, i've found that with too much zuma all i see when i close my eyes are colored balls going round and round and round...i can't sleep because of it! haha it really is frustrating. so, no zuma
i've done all i can do, and i've been looking through old friend's pictures on facebook all morning wondering why life has to take people away from each other... *gasping for air* gimme something to do!!!!
it's strange, but i can't relax when i have nothing to do. it makes me anxious....like i SHOULD be doing something, i am at work after all. and it's amazing how bored i get with things like facebook and myspace. maybe i should adopt animals on facebook and start a farm. or maybe i should sweep the floors...again. :) such great options...such hard choices.


this has absolutely no connection with the above...but i DO love chips and french onion dip :D

good gracious

check out this video. "Friend or Foe" by Fox news in the world section of their videos. Wow...all I have to say is, they need to learn how to check their sources. They need to learn how to do their research on all parties involved...not just the party who cries "HELP!" the loudest.

A quick lesson...

Lesson #1.
Things melt. Things I never thought could or would melt in a package melt...melt with a frenzy. These are what sour gummy worms look like after a journey to a desert in a package. Who woulda thunk? But no worries to the package sender...I still ate it...well at least all I could reach. haha. Harder than it looks.
Lesson #2.
Melted gummy worms would make a killing as an adhesive. Really really good sticky stuff.

Lesson #3.
Fact. Malted milk balls WILL show up in Iraq as a solid brick of chocolate with a big hunk of malt sitting at the bottom of package. Amazingly enough, still delicious


And THAT concludes my lesson for the day

Irritations

Harumph
So blogs are meant for writing, right?
I just feel like venting right now...
I'm sure happy that the law was put in place that prohibits employers from firing soldier-employees who have returned from Iraq. Sure, you're in a bind because you HAVE to let the returning soldier have his job back...and now you have to fire someone you once hired to fill that spot of the newly deployed soldier. Wow, that is rough. I just think it's funny how some employers chomp at the bit to get rid of soldiers so they don't have to be 'inconvenienced.' No matter that your employee just spent a year of life deployed in Iraq to help you keep your nice cozy comfy freedom. No matter. You just keep on a livin' in your closed-off world of convenience. I just hope at some point these money-hungry employers realize just how many soldiers sacrificed to bring them their convenient freedom. You just never know what you have till it's gone, do ya? Unfortunately not.
Irritating.

Another thing, the internet is so slow here that it lit-trally takes over 45 minutes to load and partially watch ONE E-card. ONE! I just want to find and send an E-card to my dad...and nothing, nada, not happin. Internet said, screw you, I'm taking the day off. I had to coax it to load my email. Wow, really internet? Really? Haha BUT irritating.

I'm tryin for the brighter note...
Well today just happens to be my dad's birthday. Happy Birthday DAD! Sorry you didn't get a card! haha
Also, one more day marked off of the calendar. I can't wait to get back to my room every day after work and take my blue marker to cross off the day and bring me one day closer to home.
OO I forgot to show you the camel spider! Check THIS out!

It actually died in a fountain pond thingy we have next to our housing. HUGE!
