Football Fever...



Ok so I have officially got my "Football Fever"...

I know it's only Pre-season for the REAL teams, but I went to my mover's game this weekend and now I am all set for the season. The Grizzlies didn't do as bad as I expected. Their defense was able to hold some pretty big guys back. They still have a few kinks to work out, as I saw more yellow flags hitting that field than I did players. Greg, and Rusty didn't even get to play. They claimed they weren't able to get uniforms in time since they started late in the practice season. I think they were just scared! They were standing at the gate taking tickets when I walked in. THAT alone was comedy enough for me. They play another home game in two weeks, and my daughter and I have decided to attend. Mainly just for a good laugh. 

I'll be planting my expanding butt in front of the TV every Saturday from now until the end of the football season. There is nothing like a nice cup of hot coffee, comfy sweats, and a throw blanket on a chilly Saturday morning. I love me some college ball, and this year I am really looking forward to the season. 
Go Bruins!

Movers Go Semi-Pro



Ok, so as most of my loyal readers (all 2 of you) know, I manage a moving company in California. My crew is a joke. I don't know how else to put it. I come to work every day and think wow, I have this kewl job, with this kewl boss, and I can totally sit here and blog, and play games all day and get paid for it....but then my crew walks in and I think about working at a local Taco Bell so I don't have to deal with them anymore. 

This morning two of my crew told me that last night they joined the semi-pro football team here in town. OHMYGOSH! These two are two of the biggest dumb asses on the actual planet. This will be total comedy.
 

Greg is a clutz. How in the hell can a clutz be a mover you ask? Well, he's not a good one. He actually dropped a shipper's washing machine off the walkboard once, and hoped she wouldn't notice! He's slow, and has probably never held a football in his life. Odds are this a futile attempt at trying to wrangle in women.
 

Then there is Rusty. He is cocky...and for no reason. When I tell him to go do something he looks at me like I am insane, and does it when HE wants to...yet...he never gets fired. OH the JOY! He is a smaller guy, and has trouble pushing a couch up a flight of stairs. I think once a REAL football player sees him on the field, he is going to make him a target. I give him two plays before he snaps like a twig.

Saturday the 19th is their first game...I can't wait to attend the bloodbath! Mainly because I am evil like that...I WILL take great pleasure in watching "The Goof Troop" being batted around like a cat with a ball of yarn! Good times I tell ya, GOOD FREAKIN TIMES!

Gosh I love Football!

Did You Miss Me?...



...Don't Lie! I know you did!
OK well My internet was down most of last week here at work. I know. That's no excuse since I have better internet at home, but that's what I am sticking with. I was too busy to blog from home, so deal with it! I live in a great city. My son is in day care during the week, and they have it at a different school this summer. It's out of my way, and not as close as his school. However, it's down a winding country road lined with oak trees dripping with Spanish moss. It's not unusual for me to see a bevy of quail tottering across the road, or a family of deer grazing in the fields. Every morning there is this woman walking her dog along the road. I don't know this woman, but every single morning as she walks along the road, she waves to me as I go by. I look forward to seeing her. It makes my day to know that I live somewhere, where people are genuinely nice. I used to think...Why is that woman waving at me? Now...I wave back.

Count your blessings today people...


Have you read this book? Why not!?
It's AWESOME!

Last Night It Rained...





MEN...

...Or something like that. Since CG went insane and broke up with me, I haven't really dated much. I have had a few dates here and there, but nothing so fabulous that I actually wanted to see them again. I'm tired. I'm tired of immature men who think its ok to treat women like crap. I am tired of unintelligent men who think because I am "fluffy" I am desperate to go out with their dumb ass. (Not So Much!) I am tired of men who have no goals, or work ethic. I'm tired of men who can't pick up the phone and tell me something is going on in their life, but they STILL want to see me. That's O.K. I haven't felt much like putting any effort into dating anyway.

So there I am last night talking to "Belgium Boy" on line, when my phone rings. It's "TV Editor Guy". He sounds like he is pretty buzzed but I can't tell for sure. He starts talking about how badly he wants to take me somewhere fun, and how on the 12th we should just pick up and head to Vegas for the weekend. I can't just pick up and leave. I have a job that I can't just call in and say "Hey Boss, I am in Vegas...can't come in today MMMK?" Yeah NO. That would NOT fly at all! Besides, I keep having this vision of "T.V.E.G." taking me out in the middle of the desert and killing me. I most likely wouldn't be found until some buzzard had pecked out my eyes...WTF? I do NOT want to be found with no eyes! Therefore, I think I will have to remain a NO on Vegas.

I get off the phone with "T.V.E.G.", and I resume trying to have a conversation with "Belgium Boy". We are chatting along, about...the weather when my phone rang AGAIN! OK why doesn't this happen when I am sitting home, alone, with nothing to do? This time it was "Ren Faire Guy". OK this one disappeared off the planet for like a month, and returns unexpectedly so smitten with me that he can't see straight. I mean I get it...how can he not? However...um...yeah you can't just call once a month and expect me to be waiting by the phone for you. We had a nice conversation, but I think I would probably scare him if I met him in person. He'd think I was too hyperactive, or too loud, or not funny. That would be bad...cause I am funny dammit! I dunno we will see.

The entire time I am on the phone with these two, Belgium Boy is chatting with me trying to make me laugh. Here were these guyz pouring their hearts out to me, and BB is talking about what good blog this is going to make tomorrow.

*Le Sigh*
