Attitude and Life Circumstances
Well, I've been pretty depressed for a while now. Not only does my job at Walmart royally suck, but Chad is gone for five days to Cornerstone without me, because I had to work, and Mommy and Lynn are gone to Gulf Shores as of this morning. This means nobody to keep Emily in line.
Working in lawn and garden was great, but now they're closing the ( Read more... ) -
Negative = Awesome!
After all this hardship and stress lately, I have some great news:
I'm NOT pregnant! :)
I bought my first pregnancy test today, and boy, was that a weird feeling. Now that I'm relatively certain, I'm sure Aunt Irma will visit me within the next day or two. I know worrying about it probably contributed to the lateness, but come on. How could you ( Read more... ) -
My Sister, The Bitch
Emily. My middle sister, the one with the word "bitch" tattooed on her lower back in big black letters. The one who lives up to her tattoo every day. The one who is tormented, conflicted, and severely messed up ( Read more... ) -
Olfactory and Insecticide
I've probably neglected to mention here that my sense of smell as I used to know it disappeared about four or five months ago. I came down with a bad cold/sinus infection, along with fluid in my ears, and even after I thought I was cleared of all symptoms, I realized that I could barely smell anything. This has continued to present day. Even my ( Read more... ) -
Telepictionary
Since Chad posted these to Facebook, I thought I may as well include my favorites here.
A while ago, a bunch of us got together (me, Chad, Rachel, Jaron, Posie, & Will) and played some Telepictionary at the Heston house. The rules are as follows:
1) Each person writes down a scenario that can be drawn.
2) Pass the paper over one seat.
3) Draw the ( Read more... ) -
Some Rant-ish Clarifications:
- I refuse to ever tuck in my shirt, at work or elsewhere, regardless of what my store manager says. AND we're not required to, per the corporate policy online. So there. I may very well be fired over my clothing principles.
- I am becoming less and less of a pushover while working with bossy, opinionated menopausal women. And I do not condone ( Read more... )

New (Sort of!) Car!
We have a new car! Well, it's used, but it's new to us. I wish there was a correct, easier way to say that. It's a red '04 Hyundai Elantra. Notice I said red. I've always wanted a red car, and this is a beautiful, rich, candy apple red. My favorite shade!
Chad and I looked at the Dodge dealership in Carlyle that we had the van towed to, but ( Read more... ) -
Oh, Vehicles.
This will be a short-ish post, even though I have many emotions and words on the subject.
For starters, the car is in the shop right now, getting fixed from some oil/coolant problem that is apparently a problem with all 2002 Chevy Malibus. It has something to do with the oil and coolant leaking into each other, thereby ruining the engine. However ( Read more... ) -
Life With A Job
Wow. It's been over a month since I last posted. I suppose that means I need to post more often.
I noticed I never posted the plumbing story, which is sad. Basically what happened was this. Both toilets in my mother's house were leaking from the water shutoff valve near the floor, and I took it upon myself to replace them. Can't be too hard, ( Read more... ) -
I Have a Job.
I got a call from Carlyle Walmart this morning and I got the part time cashier job! My orientation is at 8:15 on Thursday morning.
I'm not looking forward to driving thirty minutes just to get to a Walmart job, but then again, I think this may be one of the best Walmart jobs I could get. The store isn't a supercenter, so the hours will be less ( Read more... )
