I just want the bottle. That's where they get you.

I went to Rollercon for the second time this past summer and did this huge dumb scavenger hunt contest, but me and five other skaters ended up winning a pair of $900 skates that were scheduled to come out in November. You get to design it in any color combo you want and the model doesn't hit the market until next year. No one but us 5 will have these for a while, so it's kind of cool. 
I designed mine tonight.
That's really awesome Timb.
PA: I really want to wrap these gifts but my stepdad hasn't brought done the Christmas stuff yet. We have specific wrapping paper that matches our decorations. It's fucking disgusting how much Christmas shit we have because my stepdad went crazy the past 5 years buying stuff. We have 5 different ornament sets that can be mixed and matched.
The neighbor ran over my puppy, at our old place. And that was several years, maybe a decade ago.
People thought he wasn't real, when he was sitting still. That's how friggin' cute he was.
His name was Mr. Rufus Tuppence.
But I called him Mr. Tuppence, for short (in a British accent). I always talked to him in a cockney accent.
Cute critters and babies bring out the dork in me.
I still miss him. Best. Jack Russel. Ever.
I had a dog once. We found her and three other puppies at the countryside in November, abandoned on the banks of the river. I started crying and asked my parents to take them home, we did, one of them died during the first week, we sent two to my grandparents' house and kept the girl. Lily.
In January mum thought it would be a smart idea to take her outside when she hadn't been vaccinated. There was snow. Her actual words were "to get her used to the cold". She got the parvovirus and we had to put her down, after a few days of seeing blood flow from every possible orifice of hers.
That was 13 years ago and I'll never forgive my mum.
Irina, that's heartbreaking.
Love dogs. Cats...eh, not so much.
I've not even got dressed yet today. My excuse is that I'm working so I'm too busy, that's okay right? I'm bundled up with the heating on really high and watching Young Adult (again) while I write all my bullshit.
I took a vacation day today because I've got so much time built up that already I'll be losing a lot of it as we can only carry over 40 hours of pto time. Last year I had to give back 90 hours. Yesterday was my 13 year anniversary with the company, so I accrue a lot of time every month.
I'm going to get laundry done, do the shopping, wrap some more stuff, clean the house...stuff like that. My mom's coming over tomorrow to bake all day. She's going to make us cat head biscuits (they're called this because they're about the size of a cat head), biscotti and Italian cookies. She said she'd make divinity but then I reminded her that I hate that stuff....so gross. It's my brother who likes divinity. Get it together, Mom!
I'm going to pick up Drew's smoker that I got him for Christmas and also Anthony's new TV. Gonna be a busy day but I'm going to try to find time for a nap. I say that, but then I'll feel lazy and no count and get up and do something probably.
the dhl delivery is starting to freak me out. he gave me strange looks the last view times he brought me packages, not flirty but just off somehow. he was just here again and he kind of leaned in on me while i was giving my signature on that little barcode scanner thingy. like way too close. i backed off immediately and he just gave me this weirdo smile and wished me a nice evening. eek.
All delivery guys thing they're in a porno movie.
This is why we can't have nice things.
"Howdy, Ma'am..."
"Oh, my! Do you have a package for me?"
*cue weird 70's funk music*
This is why we can't have nice things.
No they don't. The guy who brought me my Kindle wasn't like that 
PA: I did a great job wrapping up my friend's gift. I'll post a picture when I come back from the tea party.
Ahahahahaha
That is so true, Tuffy! I always seem to be in my dressingown when the takeaway delivery guy comes. It is not on purpose.
i guess i shouldn´t wear that schoolgirl outfit anymore then.
no really, i´m in a huge turtle neck pullover, jeans and my uncombed hair is in a bun there is absolutely nothing alluring about me right now.
Are you kidding? There is ALWAYS something alluring about you Barbara!!!
I think that's always in the back of my head, when the delivery man drops by. It must show on my face, because he seems to be chuckling at my yoga pants, sweatshirt and tore up ponytail. We both kind of chuckle actually.
...and then the music starts...
This is why we can't have nice things.
Ew creepy people who know where you live are not cool.
I'm going to the in-laws tonight. Bloke and I need some us time.
*music*
This is why we can't have nice things.
Moving this weekend. Need to get a truck, sneak into my apartment and hope I dont end up dead.
My new roomate Jolly was very pleased when I placed my crowbar next to the front door.

As your attorney, my advise to you is to start drinking heavily(er).-Tuffy
I had one of those nachos servings with awesome salsa, beans and olives and some kind of meat and they were fucking awesome.
Yeah, the tea party moved to an Irish pub because the tea house was full and my friend hadn't made a reservation.
Lol I've gone past 6000 posts. Wasn't it very recently that I had 5k?
Well, I'm hot blooded, check it and see,
I got a fever of a hundred and one.
I'm sick. I missed my first clay class for the quarter. With only ten of them all year I feel like the professor is probably going to be not so cool about it. I have to miss one the end of week three too, for a class field trip.
I am at 9,112 as of this post.
Wow...I've been here for like 9 years and don't have that many.
Alecia, you've been here longer than me. How do you have less posts than me by almost 600?
I took a hiatus or two. 
Yeah, but I go through spurts where I don't post but once a week.
And my first year or two here, I barely posted.
Gosh Pete, you're just better than me OKAY!?!
Alecia is a slacker.
That's probably the first time in history that those words have ever been written, spoken, or thought.
FRIST!!!!!!@!!!
I hate being sick. Tonight would have been an awesome night. It's a friend of mine's birthday and they're going to a black and pink lingerie party tonight. The girl has a friend coming up to stay with her for the weekend who is insanely hot.
I'm watching Cats.
One minute in and my hatred for Webber is reaffirmed. What a fookin' hack.
Also, this DVD was produced by someone who fails to grasp the concept of theatre. Fast-cut edits like Mtv on crack. Useless piece of shit. Stealing choreography shouldn't be this much of a chore.
This is why we can't have nice things.
I made the most awesome chicken and dumpling soup for dinner.
It's the National Day today!
I won't post pictures of the military parade after it happens, except maybe one of the 10-year-old girl who will open the parade riding a horse. She's got a lot of international prizes at equitation competitions and she'll be riding a white mare.
I don't know where to put this but I'm really fucking sad/upset. Today's assholes didn't help. I feel like crying myself to sleep but I don't have the energy. There's nothing specific as to why I just think I'm overwhelmed with a lot of bullshit.
Oh Jaz, I'm sorry. Stupid assholes.
I hate assholes.
This is why we can't have nice things.
I also hate assholes.
I had planned on going out with friends last night, but when I got home from work, I totally needed a little siesta. That was at 5:30. I woke up this morning at 9. I feel like I went through a time warp or something and lost all of friday night.
I like pomelo more than any other winter fruit.
We just had the shortest earthquake ever. It felt like the cat bumped into my chair, the room was empty, so I went to ask my parents if they felt it, too, and they did. It was just the blink of an eye, if I hadn't been on the chair I wouldn't have felt it.
4.6 Richter apparently.
Pretty sure I'm done with smoking. It's been awhile, and I feel great. No reason why I can't keep this up.
Si vis pacem, para bellum
My boobs really hurt. They haven't hurt like this since I was pregnant.
I need to buy another new(to me) car. The Passat I bought earlier this year needs like 2K in work.... arrgghhh. Also next week is my oldest daughters 2 year b-day. We are having a big party at a bounce house, and she figured out door knobs already, and Zoe is already crawling at 5 months....

Reminds me of a conversation once. Me and a couple friends were at Disney and their was a baby seemingly by itself.
Jeff- Who's baby is that?
Me- Not it.
Josh- Not it.
Jeff- Damn it.
*woman walks up to the stroller and leaves with it*
Jeff- Oh thank god, I was not ready to be a father.
Alabama beat Georgia by just a couple points. Poor Drew.
*DEATHUGS* Jaz.
HahahahaThis beer is terrible!
But, you know... I needed it.
