I have nothing to wear

Literally. I only have about 2 1/2 weeks worth of clothes and guess when the last time I washed clothes was? If you guessed more than 3 weeks ago you would be correct. We had a holiday along with a few other days off so I didn’t need as many work clothes. I have a ton of t-shirts for the weekend so I wasn’t worried about that. It had been so hot that I didn’t want to trudge all the way down to the basement with a full basket of clothes so I’ve been putting it off.

Unfortunately I can’t wait any longer. So I’ll run to the store tonight and get some detergent and dryer sheets. I may look at some eczema relief cream and other health and beauty items. Then I’ll come home and get to work washing clothes.

Doing laundry is my least favorite chore in the house.

I broke my favorite flip-flops

Now I know that might not seem like a big deal to most people but it’s pretty devastating for me. It sounds dramatic but it’s true. I wear my flip-flops year-round and yes that does mean in the dead of winter. I don’t wear them out of the house, but I will wear them to run outside and put out garbage. Pretty much as long as it’s above 60 degrees outside they’re fair game.

I have been looking for a new pair to replace them before they broke but I don’t like anything that I see. Most of the flip-flops that I find are either too flat or way too expensive. I don’t need designer shoes and I really don’t plan on paying over $50 for a pair of flip-flops.

Maybe when I run out this weekend to pick up some vitamins and other stuff from the store I’ll get lucky and find a inexpensive pair. I’m not even that picky, I just want a black pair with a small wedge to it. I will be so bummed if I have to go to the department store to find a good pair. I just do not want to spend a lot of money right now.

The internet is much funnier with sound

I had my sound on yesterday while I was surfing because I was listening to music. As I went to certain websites, I noticed that they had sound. Since I usually have my speakers on mute, I thought it was funny hearing all of the noises. Mostly I heard a buzzing sound like when you get the wrong answer on the Family Feud. I also heard a lot of clicking as pages loaded. That sound was pretty annoying though. I’m sure if I had gone looking for Acid cigars I would have heard the crackling sounds of smoke or even the sound of someone puffing on a cigar. There were a few other sounds that I heard but I can’t remember them all.

I figure I’ll turn the sound on every once in a while to get some entertainment as I’m playing around on different websites.

It is freezing at work

I know I shouldn’t be complaining because I don’t have air conditioning at home. All I have is two fans, one of which just blows hot air around the room. I wind up coming to work and freezing while at home I roast to death. There really is no happy medium right now. I don’t have to worry about taking any apidexin because my metabolism is running high right now trying to warm up then cool down my body.

I’ll be glad when the weather breaks and it’s only in the mid to low 80’s because this heat is ridiculous.

Joke of the week

The fire fighter walks over to take a closer look. “That sure is a nice fire truck,” the fire fighter says with admiration. “Thanks,” the girl says.

The fire fighter looks a little closer and notices the girl has tied the wagon to her dog’s collar and to the cat’s testicles. 
 
“Little Partner,” the fire fighter says, “I don’t want to tell you how to run your rig, but if you were to tie that rope around the cat’s collar, I think you could go faster.” 

The little girl replies thoughtfully, “You’re probably right, but then I wouldn’t have a siren.

I’m on a 6 week plan

I need to lost weight. I’ve decided to start small and go on a 6 week plan. I have 2 main reasons for doing this. The first reason is that I’ll see a small victory. I can start a exercise regiment along with diet pills that work for my metabolic rate and see some weight come off. The second reason is that 7 weeks from now is my birthday.

I’m not going on vacation this year so I need something to cheer me up on my birthday. I don’t know why, but I’m usually sad on my birthday. Even when I’m surrounded by my family and friends I just dread that day. By going on this plan, I at least have something to focus on.

The best part is that I’ve made it a manageable goal. I’m only looking to lose 10-15 pounds which is not a lot but enough for me to see a difference. Maybe I’ll even tweak my budget and be able to squeeze a small vacation in there as well. Hey I can only hope, like I said, I need something to look forward to.

I’m ignoring my work email

There are so many of them that I don’t know where to start, so I haven’t. I left work 2 hours early on Friday and between then and this morning I have a ton of questions to answer. One person emailed me at 3pm on Friday and wanted something done that same day. Only problem was that the deadline was noon so there was nothing I could have done anyway.

I’ll get to my email in a bit. I just need to clear the weekend cobwebs from my head and focus on work. Right now I’m looking at my affiliate programs and seeing if there’s any money to be made. If so I’ll work on that first since those opportunities are few and far between. They also don’t last long at all.

Besides my regular work isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

I knew it

Yesterday I just knew that I would fall asleep during the baseball game that I was watching. I figured I would doze off for a minute and wake up close to 2:00pm. I was pretty surprised that I made it all the way until 5:00 or the 9th inning. The only problem was that the game went into extra innings and I almost missed it. I was in and out of sleep until I heard a bunch of noise. I looked up just in time to see the game winning hit.

I would have been so upset to miss the end of the game. On a side note, today is my day off and of course I didn’t sleep in. I would up at 7:00am today. I guess there really is no rest for the weary.

I never sleep in on my days off

It’s my day off and I’ve been up since before 8:00am again. It’s annoying because I’m not going anywhere and I don’t have anything planned. I can’t even relax in the bed because I just feel like I should get up. I always end up on the internet looking up a online degree program or just surfing in general. Right now I’m watching a infomercial while playing on the internet.

A baseball game that I want to see comes on at 1:00pm. I just know that I’ll start getting tired around 2:00pm. That seems to be the way it goes.

The Phillies are in town this weekend

Yeah I am so happy about that.  I love the Phillies and Ryan Howard in particular. My eyes shine like diamonds every time I watch him play. I wasn’t able to go to the game last night or tonight but I’ll try my best to make it to a game this weekend. The tickets aren’t that expensive but I hate going to games by myself.

This is a holiday weekend so I suspect that it will be really crowded so I can find someone to talk to during the game. But even if I don’t, I’m still trying to go to a game.
