Random Tuesday Thoughts

How the hell is it Tuesday? Like it or not, it is, which means it's also...

randomtuesday

First off, if your one of those people bugging Keely to change her logo, stop it! She'll change it when she's good and ready, geez. While it may be ugly, it is random, so it's perfect for today!

Somehow, the same arguments Vx & I keep having got started up again last night, I don't remember how, so I'll just blame it on the cat.

Big Brother is down to the final 5. Poor Regan, he'll probably be evicted this week. I'm guessing after that will be Britney, then Enzo, leaving Hayden & Lane the final 2, no clue who would win. Then again, Enzo is a crappy competitor, so he may go to the final 2 so the other person would be a guaranteed winner. We'll see how these next few weeks unfold...

My NBC decided to work again, so I got to watch Boston Legal and Poker over the weekend. One of the Boston Legal's was the last episode, when Denny & Allen visited the Supreme Court, then got married by one of the justices. The next night was when Allen dressed like Shirley and had to keep Denny out of his skirt. William Shatner and James Spader played those characters so well!

Monday while mom was sleeping, she had crazy dreams, one of them was me, her, & her bf riding together in his semi somewhere. This morning when he was leaving for work, he asked if the cat & I were ready to hit the road w/him today. If he only knew what car rides with P are really like...

Last night, I helped Vx recover the back side of his airplane wing. The wing is longer than I am tall (if that makes sense). He made it out like he couldn't do it by himself when all I really did was stand there & watch.

The other day, the furry hunter made sure to alert us of her recent catch: a grasshopper, possibly dead. I think she found it by the pantry (near her food dish), she brought it out into the open, meowed several times, & rubbed on things until I acknowledged her prey. I grabbed a napkin and threw it away. At least this "catch" didn't involve nudity (like the last one).

"Don't pull out your penis unless you really have to, indecent exposure is a class 2 felony!"

I hope I'm not the only one who's seen the Aqua Teen movie.

Mooninites are the bomb!

Don't break your femur, if one pin doesn't keep you awake, the other will bother you when your awake. Stupid car wreck!

Incase it wasn't crowded enough w/the deployment crap...

My mom's boyfriend has now officially moved in (I guess you could say that). My mom works security at a warehouse, a company he works for is leasing part of the building, he was mainly living in a trailer parked on the lot. He was told to move his trailer, so it's now at some storage place and instead of spending 3 nights a week at his trailer (the nights my mom work), he's now sleeping here when he's not gone for work or visiting his family. Those used to be the nights Vx & I had the place to ourselves, now we don't really have those.

I hope this will encourage Vx more for us to MOVE OUT!!!

We'll see how this goes...

Six Word Saturday

Yay! It's Saturday again, meaning it's time for...


It's very simple, just describe something in 6 words, my words this week:

Scratched arms, inconsiderate husband, that's life!

And that's just Thursday! Vx aggravated me, & the cat's need to scratch my arm to pieces didn't help any. Thanks for reminding me why your such an inconsiderate jerk! At least the cat has tried to make up to me, the little hunter cried out & stood her ground when she found a grasshopper, until I got rid of it. Grass snakes, grasshoppers, she tries to protect her humans!

MilSpouse Friday Fill-ins

Yay! It's Friday, and time for...


Milspouses and significant others get a chance to answer questions and learn more about each other!


This week’s questions are:
1. What secret indulgence do you act on while your spouse is away? (from Devil Dog Darling)
Reality tv shows I like, listening to Metallica, and other things that my husband doesn't like, but I love!


2. If you were a spice, what would you be? (from New Girl On Post)
cinnamon, sweet but not too sweet


3. Where do you go for support when your significant other is deployed? (from Texas Meets Washington)
The three weeks he was "deployed" I didn't really need any kind of support. My husband assured me that if there were any problems, his uncle and aunt can help with some issues, and like I did before Vx, my mom should be able to help with other things, or knows who can.


4. What is the oldest thing you own? (from A Troop’s Girl)
My Keeker doll, I assume. My mom made her for me when I was about 2 years old. I have two other dolls that my aunts made for me as well, they may be older, but Keeker was always there by my side when I was younger.


5. How did you vision your future pre-military? (from Daddy’s Duty)
For starters, I never imagined marrying someone quite like my husband. I would be working in radio or on tv, living on my own, not sure if I would've been married or not, I never imagined I would be working where I currently work, let alone doing security. Pretty much what my life is now is nothing like I visioned my life being.

What? A real post? Her head must be ready to explode!

Yeah, it's gonna pop any second now...

If by any chance you have missed the Funny Pet Moments posts I used to do on Thursday's before I got too busy lazy preoccupied with other business watching tv twitter, I have now added a widget to the bottom right corner that will post funny cat pictures.

I also made some changes to my sidebars, since my twitter account is currently private (dear lord, please let my MIL quit tweeting, I'm scared to go public until I know as a fact that she has given up on this, please don't change my younger SIL's mind about her account, her last tweet was something about "not getting this" from a while back, and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do NOT inform my older SIL about this as she is the last person on earth that needs a twitter account. Spare all of us her drama queen tweets!), I changed the timeline to a "follow me" button. That annoying log in pop-up should quit showing up as well. I'm sorry all my in-law drama couldn't be contained onto myspace (back in the day) and facebook (where they currently reside). I also took out some other graphics & things as well.

If you really are interested in what P is up to, she sometimes uses this website that's twitter for animals, this is her profile: http://www.petstatus.com/pthearmybratcat If your pets also use this site, she would love to chat w/them.

Random Tuesday Thoughts

It's Tuesday, so its time for...

randomtuesday

Poor kitty! The worms are gone (to my knowledge), but now the poor thing's sneezing. Damn dogs at the vet! It could also be allergies, or she caught whatever's making me sneeze. (If you doubt she caught something from me, back when swine flu was everywhere, a cat caught it from its owners.)

Sunday night, I heard her throw up in one of her hiding spots, the patio door behind the tv. I had to walk outside to inspect the damage. Luckily it was on a rug used to keep air from escaping/coming in, easier to clean up than the carpet.

Monday, when my husband and I were planning on taking my car somewhere, it wouldn't start. He said it was the battery. We replaced the battery 2 years ago when I was working in a construction zone, we couldn't find the receipt, but since we got it from the Auto Zone down the street, they were able to look it up in their computer, find it, and since it was still under warranty, replace it NO CHARGE! Yay!

My husband survived last week. Tuesday-Friday, he spent the morning working on a house in the next town, then drove about 60 miles to another house to work on it in the afternoon. Friday, his nephew tagged along, he's 19 or 20, so he was a bigger help to him than the other nephews would've been. He was slow to my husband's standards, but he was able to finished both of them up with his help.

He's also on steroids again, some breathing doctor put him on this inhaler he's taken before, the follow-up appointment is about the time he should be going to WLC & that other class, so we'll see how all this goes.

Don't have Walgreens call you to tell you your prescription is ready. Wednesday I picked up my prescription from them, Thursday, Friday, and Monday, they called to inform me that its ready for pick-up. Did I also mention that Monday's call woke me up? Not everyone works during the day, or is awake at that time. That's the reason I transferred my prescription there, this particular one's open 24/7.

Popsicles shaped like guns, why haven't I seen these at gun shows???

Six Word Saturday

Oh boy! It's Saturday and time for


If you've never played before, all you do is describe something in six words, this week, I'm going to use a phrase I've said a few times this week to the cat:

"I'm sorry that your feeling better!"

Monday evening, I took her to the vet, they updated her shots (it was almost time for her 3 year shots & I never brought her in for the 2 year ones) & gave her a pill. By Wednesday, she was back to her normal bad ways. But those few days did allow my arms and hands to heal up!

MilSpouse Friday Fill-ins

Happy Friday! It's time for MilSpouse Friday Fill-In, this week's questions came from other people, what creative minds they have!

1. If you could be a fugitive from the law for whatever reason, what would your crime be? (from It's a Hooah Life)
Flipping off a cop.


2. How long do you think you will be a military family? (from Julie the Army Wife)
Vx got out of the National Guard several years ago, but he wants to stay in the reserves until he can retire. He's 34, so I hope he can make it that long.


3. What's your favorite recipe? (from Keep Calm and Soldier On)
Since I'm not a cook, I'm going to use another definition for recipe according to dictionary.com. My favorite medical prescription is birth control. B.B.C. (before birth control), time of the month would have me paralysed in bed, felt like I was gonna throw up on myself & everything around me (have I mentioned that I have a vomit-phobia?). I also couldn't take any pain meds, so I would suffer for a few days. A.B.C. (after birth control), I can eat, walk, take pain meds if I need them (which half the time I don't), & following my doctor's advice, have them less frequently. Hallelujah!!!


4. What would you want your last five words to be when you leave this life? (from My Goal is Simple)
See you in hell, fuckers! 


Not really, that would be too mean, even for me. 


5. Where do you hope to retire? (from Pennies from Heaven)
This assisted living home my grandma and her friend just moved into sounds REALLY nice! I want to live there now! I don't wanna wait til I'm in my 80's (like my grandma) or 98 (like her friend) to move in!

While I thought the questions were tough, it took me very little time to fill them out, so hopefully my answers don't suck too badly.

Hope you have a rockin' weekend!

Random Tuesday Thoughts

randomtuesday

This week's Random Tuesday Thoughts is brought to you by...

Monday
Only the craziest of crazy days happen on a Monday

and

Tuesday
It can't be as bad as Monday

(See, my broadcasting education wasn't a complete waste of time!)


So, Friday night, my husband said he saw a worm on P's butt, then proceeded to do a Stevie Wonder impression. This caused him concern, so Saturday, I called the vet's office. Unfortunately, I called too late that day to get her in, but there was a Monday evening opening, so I took it.

Saturday, I cleaned up the carrier the best I could, took the top off, then placed the bottom half by her food/water dishes, with the water inside. Sunday, I replaced the top, but left the door off, refilled the water dish, & placed a milk ring inside (one of her favorite toys). Monday morning before I went to bed, I removed the water, replaced the door, propped it open w/the water dish and stuck some newspapers inside. Last vet visit, after the fecal float, she pooped in her carrier, luckily on newspapers so it was easier to clean up. Right before I tricked placed her in the carrier, she started eating food, worried she might get car sick, I placed the food dish out of her reach, and cleaned up the crumbs remaining.

Then she tried to hide.

My mom had found some catnip-flavored treats somewhere, so I shook the bag, threw one in the carrier, then when she walked in to get it, I closed the door, and we left. The whole car ride there, she cried, I almost cried, I drove through construction zones nervously, trying not to drive like I normally do (slamming on the brakes, so she wouldn't fly out of the back seat), and I almost missed the turn to the vet, but we made it. I told the receptionist, "The crybaby in the floor has an appointment w/Dr. Smith." She kinda chuckled, and asked how to pronounce P's name (it's a persian name) so I told her how, explained what it meant and where it came from. Common questions asked. The assistant said she was beautiful, and looked at her eyes. Both of hers are green, she said something about most having blue eyes, or one blue one green. Also said most with blue eyes are deaf. If you read the first sentence, then you know she's not. Then I told her the story of her name while she anal raped her collected a sample for the fecal float. Everything looked great, they gave her a pill there for her worms, vet suggested I use some different flea medicine on her, (something about heartworms being bad in our area), and if she has a reaction to her shots again (she did last time), call her for a pain pill. She's not acting as "pitiful" as last time, she's sitting up more, not sleeping as much, but she's still not eating, drinking or moving around much. If she's not better by Wednesday morning, I'll call and get a pain pill.

Think my day was bad? Vx's was worse and longer!

Vx was supposed to drive about 60 miles to work on something. Before leaving, he went to a supply place close to home. Good thing he did, his work vehicle overheated on the way there, so he has had to postpone that job, & he spent Monday working on his work vehicle. Since he wanted his cousin's help, he also helped his cousin out, which (in typical Vx style) turned into something WAY more complicated. Cousin's vehicle had a flat tire near the area Vx was gonna help him out at, then a blowout, since he hasn't been working in the heat as much as he normally does, Vx about blacked out several times. When they were going back to work on the vehicle, the aunt who was watching the cousin's kids started throwing up, so they got the kids, grabbed some dinner at Sonic, and went to work on the vehicle. Since he was supposed to start on another project closer to home Tuesday, he made an appearance there this morning, then drove out to yesterday's job afterwards. Since the other one is so far away, he's hoping to get it done in one day, if not, he's gonna sleep in his vehicle (not the first time he's done this), and finish it tomorrow. 

Since this is supposed to be a random post, but turned into one of my normal bitchfests, now I'll make sure to post random things:

*Golden Oreo's are very yummy.
*Pest control came in this morning, so the kitchen stuff has been randomly placed in the living room, dining area, and mom's bedroom.
*My sleeping schedule has been random lately, I sleep a few hours during the day, and a few hours at night.
*I have a canker sore (is that what its called?) Its on the inside of my mouth, it hurts to brush my teeth, laugh, talk at times, and when objects touch it (drinks, food, lysine, etc.). My lip looks swollen and sometimes I seem to have trouble talking w/o feeling lots of pain. Usually lysine helps them go away (I get them quite a bit, usually citrus items cause them, but sometimes very salty chips and bad stomach aches can as well. I think eating too many potato chips the other night did it this time).
*My pajama bottoms have tinkerbell on them. I'm still wearing yesterday's shirt, it's gray w/music notes all over the front.

Six Word Saturday

The weekend has now arrived, so it's time for...


If you've never played this fun game, it's easy, just describe something in 6 words. This week's words:

I hope the cat's not sick!

My husband thinks she may have worms, ew! I'm not looking forward to the car ride, last time she went to the vet, she cried the whole way there and back. We were never sure if the crying was because she was in a pet carrier, or the car ride since she was still crying some in the waiting room. Also, neither of us have been working much in the last few months, and she is overdue for her yearly shots and check-up by several months (I blame life).

To play along, visit Call Me Cate's blog by clicking on the banner at the top or on the left sidebar, add that cool colorful button to your 6WS post, stick the link in Mr. Linky (that sounded dirty), and leave Cate some love. If your one of the lucky random.org selectee's, she'll even visit your six words.

Have a great weekend!
