choke on that causality

I’ve been using those crest white strips for the past few days. But I had to take a break after yesterday, because they make my teeth kinda hurt. They seem to be working though…that’s nice. I drink too much coffee and soda.

I finally upgraded to the latest and greatest version of Wordpress. I’m not really used to the admin changes yet. And is it just me or does the widget drag-n-drop controls seem buggy. It was awkward trying to reorder stuff in my sidebar. And I can’t seem to find any themes that I like. And the ones that I think are ok don’t support widgets. I know like 95% of my readers have no idea what I’m talking about…ah well.

So Sammy is getting huge! He’s also getting much better at holding his wee. He almost always makes it through the night without wetting in his crate. And he’d kinda funny. I take him out and he seems to go potty on command. While he’s squatting to pee he turns his head back to me…like, “you gettin my treat ready???” I love that puppy. Him and KC are always fighting though. It’s really annoying. KC gets so upset when he has any toy, and she makes a bunch of funny snarly noises. I’m hoping that as we can trust Sammy more and more in the house…that the extra time together will help them calm down. That’s what I’m hoping anyhow.

The dogs are driving me crazy. Love em and all…but I don’t understand how they can have so much energy. We went for a long walk and played outside forever…Then I had to give them a bath because they stank. And now they just decided to roll around in the dirt to get all the clean off of them. Damn them. I feel like I’m getting eaten alive by mosquitoes (hmm..I didn’t realize there was an ‘e’ in there like potatoes), but i haven’t caught one on me yet. Perhaps I’m just paranoid.

I love having a deck where I can sit outside. (It’d be nicer if Mike would help me get all the patio furniture out :-\) It is beautiful out tonight. I have no desire to sit inside and watch tv. Although it is kinda lonely by myself. I suppose the dogs are here…and the cats sit and stare out the screen door and sniff the air and listen to the birds overhead. It’s so nice having a quiet neighborhood, and I don’t go in my back yard to see some shirtless old guy in the alley fixing televisions and yelling at “Angel, Shut up!” at his dog every few minutes. Although…been there with k.c… the shut up part…not the fixing tvs shirtless part. Ugh could you picture it?

We are on our way back from shopping in Toledo. I really wish it had been as nice this weekend as it had been on Friday. I’m very ready for summer. I took Friday afternoon off and just laid out in the sun and got all pink and crispy.

Shopping is exhausting. I start to get really annoyed when five different people ask me if I need any help finding anything. It’s obnoxious. Not as bad as best buy, but still bad. We totally had to stop at the Irish pub and I downed a beer… That made me sleepy and hungry though.

I got some cute clothes though. All for work pretty much.

I was so bored last night I watched this movie on showtime called material girls with the duff sisters. Wow it was even worse than you would imagine. I don’t recommend it. Then I watched the zodiac…which I thought was the one with Jake gyllenhaal. No the ‘the’ really made all the difference. I don’t recommend it either.

I thought this was funny. Originally found here: http://nataliedee.com/012405/ribbon-based-economy.jpg#html

I hate it when people don’t know when to shut the hell up. Sometimes people will either stop in to my office, or stop me in the hallway and start talking to me about something….and just go on and on and on bitching and complaining about something. I realize that everyone needs a little healthy bitch time…but if I’m inching away from you…just let me go. When it comes to work, I want people to get to the point, and go about their business. I have other shit to do!

There are also those other people who aren’t even talking to me but their voice carries all the way down the hall to irritate the shit out me. And it isn’t even once in a while. It is all the fucking time. Shut up!

Today I had the worst headache imaginable. Like it was so bad…I started to feel all woozy and weird like I might vomit at any moment… I came home early from work and just slept for like 3 hours. It was nice.

Now I feel a little strange…but much much better. Although my dogs are driving me insane. Like I can give them each a big bone, but they choose one to fight over. They are outside right now, and Sammy keeps running up against the glass door…I think he realized he can’t just walk through it…I guess he is just trying to get my attention or something. Like, “Let me in!”. Uh not if they are going to act like that…besides it is a pretty nice day. They can stay outside while I recover from my migraine.

I remember at my old job I used to kinda make fun of people who would go home sick from ‘migraines’. But now I realize it is a little more serious than that. Like when that shit happens, you can’t function normally…so I figure you might as well go home sick. The sooner you do that…the sooner you’ll be back to 100%.
