Well, I went to Chick-fil-A! Dressed up! As a cow!

And the lady taking my order didn't give it to me for free. So I went and sat down with my friends, who were all dressed up the same amount as me (possibly less), and they had all gotten theirs for free! It took me the whole time were sitting there (which was obscenely long because our other friend was late) and much nagging from my friends before I plucked up the courage to finally go back up and ask for a refund. They gave me one, though!

I'm so sad, but I totally forgot to take a picture!

But you can rest well knowing that the costume was quite obnoxious!

I always turn down "Ferris" Street, forgetting it's not "Fenris," and then feel disappointed.

Seven years ago, when I was in Toronto, I saw a herd of cow-people. They were near Eaton Centre. I don't know why they were dressed up as cows in the middle of February.

We are here for you in the emotional sense, but I hope you have some refuge in the physical sense if you need it.
He hasn't been keeping up with therapy but yes he has help. It frustrates me that he doesn't keep up with it and thinks they just want to overmedicate him. He hasn't given it a real chance. The drinking makes it worse.

I am safe. He won't do anything intentionally hurt me at all.

Thank you again though. Honestly I appreciate all your kind thoughts.

Take care.

How about that! I've drank many-a-glass of vino in a Red Solo cup (I'm classy like that) and never noticed that either.

And well, frankly, now that I do know, it's still unlikely I'll only fill it up to that meager 5-oz line.

Just saw a friend's totally hot acquaintance in one of those fold out perfume ads from a Macy's catalog. Drool.

Lol! Sorry to disappoint - he's not shirtless or anything! And it's kind of a tiny picture. But I do still think he's a hottie.

He's the one on the right. Sorry my phone pics suck.

That's just silliness. Just means un-needed multiple trips to the bottle!

Standard restaurant pour is 6 oz. Why would I pour myself less than I'd get from a waiter???

You live in a government funded glass house, and there are more cracked panes than you realize.

Yay, it worked! I couldn't log on for a little while.

Claudine & Nej... Sad and wrong indeed.

Curlysue, I am glad you are okay. Please stay safe.

My oldest nephews have unknowingly saved my sanity. They called yesterday and asked if they could come for a visit this weekend. I got tomorrow and Sunday off! I rarely get to see them and I am so excited.

This visit has saved me from a weekend of work crap. Nothing to do with my recent rants (we had a very good talk this morning) but everything to do with the blue, spatula tailed, demon I dreamed about. She was cooking up a scheme to get me in trouble at work and I was questioned about it by the office supervisor today. It was a very small, and perfectly routine thing that was turned into a mountain of high school drama. Not even one ounce of proof to her accusations, more like pulled from her ass/umptions, and nothing but time and date stamped proof in my favor. She's lucky she high tailed it to Florida. I'm in the mood to stomp. Idk what is going on in the universe right now but I need a break. The things going on around me are ridiculous.

Time for a big ol' drink, and some relaxing music.

Worn out iPhone. Need I say more?

That in itself is an issue. I always look at the glass like they served me someone's leftovers. Now I just order a bottle...to split of course

So I just joined e-harmony to try to get over my shy self because my cousin urged me to do this. These men who are my "matches" look like my grandfather. Are they kidding me? One foot in the grave and another on a banana peel. White haired crusty looking old codgers. Give me the creeps. I really doubt I'll meet any "match" this way. Effing waste of money.

I should have lied about my age.

Sorry. This will be long, again. I have to get this off my chest before I explode. Overlook me.

Tuesday a.m before I left work I looked up address info on a man, upon request. When I couldn't find it in one part of the system, I did a general search in another. This search generates a list of close name matches, and shows only name and address. Several on the list, no correct matches. I log off, and go home. That's when I couldn't sleep more than an hour, was delirious, and said something on here to WS about having a messed up dream about a girl I can't stand. She turned into a demon and told me she was going to run me out of my town. Yeah, that was ****ing weird and yes she's yet another co worker. We no longer speak to each other, with good reason. She relieved me Tues morning, and started her routine search of everything I ran on one system after I left. She's apparently been checking me in hopes of catching a mistake. Knock on wood, I have a flawless work record. Nada, in 9 years. She see's this search, and takes a copy to our office supervisor. One person on that list is in emergency services, and apparently her new *maybe* boyfriend. She tells my supervisor that I ran his personal information, which given his job is a no no. She also tells her that I did it because she might be dating him, and I was snooping in her business. Isn't that funny? I had no clue. If she doesn't know if she is dating him, how would I know? I didn't run it due to him, and didn't look any further into his info. This is all proven. At 10 this a.m my supervisor was in our office to discuss this, which is a first. Everything is fine on my end, but I'm pissed and hurt. Her co worker backed the assumptions based on lies. He trained me, and I thought he was my friend.

Funny thing is this girl tried to sleep with my ex when we were together. She texted him non stop, told him lies, looked up his info, and showed up at his house when he turned her down.

I'm... WTF is going on!?!?

Again, sorry. It's been a rough week.
