Don't you just love it?

So, I'm a bit of a Bachelor/Bachelorette junky. I've only started watching in the last few seasons. But, Jake, are you kidding me? I'm so glad that Ali is the next Bachelorette, even if she did have to quit Facebook to do it. Jobs come and go, but if this is the real thing, then I'm glad that she is going through this.

As for my own Bachelor, things are up in the air. I'm really tired of all these games. Boys will be boys and all, but really? Give me a break already.

Lessons learned

I'm tired of all the drama.

With that being said, I have been shopping for a new washing machine. It has not been fun. It's times like this that I did wish I had a guy in my life that would deal with these things. Other times, I am so thankful that I don't have the hassles that being in a relationship involves.

Have you ever wondered what you're supposed to be doing with your life? I'm second guessing every decision I have made in the last ten years. Then again, I guess we all are, huh?

More later...

Today was fabulous

Hey there invisible audience. I hope you had a fantastic day, because I sure didn't! I want each of you to e-mail the features editor at your daily paper and ask them to carry the Humor Hotel package that the Chicago Trib is syndicating. That was the only bright spot of the day.

Have fun, maybe I'll have more words of wisdom tomorrow.

I'm out.

Another day, another headache

Well, I've been back at work for a couple of weeks now, I'm still sick, have been for almost three months now. It has been quite a joy ride, let me tell you. I'm trying to get myself in a better place, mentally and physically. I have been ignoring myself for a bit, but that's about to end. This boy has turned me upside down and I'm going to get my life back in order. When I do, if he comes back around, I hope I have the strength to say no. He sure does have a hold on me though, so, I'll have to stand strong. The million dollar question is this, can I?

So, you know that song Wanted, dead or alive by Bon Jovi? What year did that come out? Sometime in the 80's, right? Well, all this time, I've wondered what a stale horse was. I had an epiphany today when I realized that the line of the song was actually talking about a steel horse. I assume that means a motorcycle. Seriously?

I'll have more words of wisdom for you tomorrow. Miss me!

Updates

Hello to all the people not reading this blog. I had another blog on a different site and to streamline things, I decided to combine the two together, so, that is the reasoning for all the multiple posts today.

I have a problem. I have been seeing this guy and for the life of me, I'm not sure why I have entered into this relationship.

Why do I get myself in these situations? I'm very annoyed.

**sidenote? Why didn't I go into more details here? Sorry to be so vague.

It's over

Well, Hot Ness Monster and I are finished. It wasn't going to work, Pancakes and Brownie did NOT get along! But, Hot Ness realized that Pancakes was more important and he bowed out gracefully. I have to commend him for that. I guess it's a good thing, since I'm married...have I told you that story? I promised to fill you in on the polygamy story in my last post, so here goes.

Well, I have a husband and wife that live in Belgium. We met on Polygamy.com and we lived happily ever after. At least until I ran them out of the country! Speaking of polygamy, have you tried Polygamy Porter? It's a fabulous porter out of a little brewery in Salt Lake City. Back to the original story...

So, here I was, all alone and playing on the Internet. I stumbled across polygamy.com and the rest is history. Jean and Chris, my husband and wife. They are two of the coolest people you would ever meet. They lived in D.C. and I was all by myself in Washington State. We met up occasionally as our respective situations would allow. Although it was never enough, we made the best of the time we had together. We were able to meet up in Kansas City and D.C. a few times. But, before we knew it, we were on separate continents.

So far, it's working out fabulously. Maybe that has to do with the five time zones between us? I'm hopeful that one day, we will be reunited, but until then, I guess I'm just stuck here all alone...what's a girl to do? Questions? Ask away!

Big Love...

My vast knowledge of religion

So, I have a funny story to tell. You may have heard this before, but I wanted to get it out there for everyone to see just how evolved I am in my religion. It's a bit long, but worth it! Keep reading!

I was raised Southern Baptist, as most people in the Bible Belt of the country were. Now, when I got into high school, I began to experiment a bit with other religions. Now, I'm not talking Wicca or anything, but I went to a few churches that were a different religion other than Baptist. One was even nondenominational!

Anyway, do you remember the infomercials that the Church of Jesus Christ of Ladder Day Saints used to have? I do. They talked about the Mormon religion and it sounded interesting, so I thought, what the heck? I may as well check it out! At the end of the infomercial, it showed a phone number to call and get a copy of the Book of Mormon. So, me being the follower that I was, picked up the phone and began to dial. I happily gave all my contact information to the rep on the other end of the line and began the wait for my very own copy! I could hardly wait, I was going to learn all about this new religion that I did not know a single soul who had ever been a Mormon. I was quite the cosmopolitan girl! Suffice to say, two days later, I forgot all about the book.

Then, one day, I received this package and it turned out to be my Book of Mormon. I got all excited again and decided to read it to find out what this religion was all about. Now, I was working at Chick-fil-A at the time, so I was all excited about it. I was going to go and tell my Christian co-workers all about this new religion I had uncovered.

Well, I began to read the book. When I got to the part about Jesus discovering America, I quit reading. Surely that wasn't right?! Wasn't it Christopher Columbus? Were my history books deceiving me? I looked at the introduction to the book and found that Mormonism was founded by the great Brigham Young in 1830. So, I knew it was a little fishy at that point. I put the book down and forgot all about my foray into becoming a Mormon.

Now, fast forward a month or so. At the time I still lived with my parents, I was about 17 or 18, I'm not sure. One night, I was there all by myself and the doorbell rang. Of course, I answered it. Three men in black pants and white shirts were standing on the front porch. They asked if I was home. I told them it was me and asked them in. (No, I didn't ask who they were, but they knew my name, so surely they were safe, right?! Yes, I am *that* naive.)

I invited them into the living room and they gave me their names, Elder Smith, Elder Jones and Elder Jackson. They had come from the Church of Jesus Christ of Ladder Day Saints to talk to me about the Book of Mormon that I received.

They begin their whole talk about the religion, the benefits and the true greatness of becoming a Mormon and living a true testimony to Jesus Christ. They talked for maybe 20 or 30 minutes and asked if I had any questions. I told them that I was just amazed. At that point, they all got big grins on their faces and thought they had reeled me in. One of the Elder's asked me what I was amazed by. To this I responded...I have never heard of anyone named Elder and here all three of you are named it! What a coincidence.

No, I'm not kidding. It took them a minute to regain their composure, but when they finally did, they explained that it was their title in the church, not their first name. After that, I had nothing. I really was that naive. I promise! In some aspects, I still am, but hey, that's one of the qualities you love about me, isn't it?

Keep reading, maybe one day I'll tell you about my experience with polygamy.com!
