Bored

So.... I am sitting home and I am really bored out of my mind, so I thought that I would post a blog, since I really haven't had alot of time to do so. It's 10:18 p.m. and actually I am kind of tired, so I am just trying to waste some time until my eyes get heavy and force me to fall into a comfy comma. Today was actually a very blah day for me. I went out last night with my husband's friend Eric, well he's my friend too, but they are more friends. We went to Ken's bar around 8:30 and then when my husband got out of work he met us there, and we stayed there for a little while and played a few games of darts and then we went home and Bobby and I shot some more darts, and didn't end up going to bed til like 6:30 a.m. , so I slept most of the day away today. I was extremely tired and I can't believe that I am still tired. I guess that it's true that they say the more that you sleep the more tired you are, I really don't see how that can be, doesn't really make any sense to me, but whatever. My brother was suppose to come down this weekend, but he never called or anything and said that he wanted to come down and spend some time down here. He was here 2 nights last week because Bobby cut his finger on Sunday night and was out of work for 3 days so Stephen was here to keep Bobby company. Bobby really did do alot for me though when he was out of work for those days, the house was spotless everyday when I came home from work and everything that I would need to do when I got out of work was already done by the time I got home..so I was very happy about that and it was a huge help. When I get out of work all I want to do is shower and clean up and then relax. Some people would think that it's strange since I am a woman and considering my size that I work in a warehouse, but I love doing that kind of work. I always have, I love to keep busy and people think that just because I am so small that I really can't do alot of lifting or whatever is required with the job. I gained almost 10 lbs. since I started this new job, I think that it's mostly muscle that I gained, because it really doesn't look like I gained weight. I am just more in shape now then I was before. Actually I went to the mall yesterday and got a new pair of jeans. Usually I used to wear a sizes 5, which I would have to wear because I am tall and I needed to wear a 5 for the length, so I took a pair of sizse 5 jeans and went in the dressing room to try them on and they pretty much fell off me, so I ended up buying a size 3 and I didn't try those on. When I got home and put them on to get ready to go out, they were still kind of big in the waist, so who knows maybe I could wear a 1, which I am really excited about. Well I don't know, I am just blabbering about anything, so I think that I am going to go and watch some t.v. and try to get to sleep, so that way I won't waste tomorrow like I did today and I could actually do something with my day, so til next time.....

Dear Alcohol

Dear Alcohol,

First and foremost, let me tell you that I'm a huge fan of yours.

As my friend, you always seem to be there when needed. The perfect post-work cocktail, a beer at the game, and you're even around at the holidays (hidden inside chocolates as you warm us when we're stuck in the midst of endless family gatherings). However, lately I've been wondering about your intentions. While I want to believe that you have my best interests at heart, I feel that your influence has led to some unwise consequences:


1. Phone Calls: While I agree with you that communication is important. I question the suggestion that any conversation after 2 a.m. can have much substance or necessity. Why would you make me call my ex's? Especially when I know, for a fact, they DO NOT want to hear from me during the day, let alone all hours of the night.


2. Eating: Now, you know I love a good meal. But, why do you suggest that I eat a taco with chili sauce along with a big Italian
meatball and some stale chips (washed down with wine & topped off with a Kit Kat AFTER a few cheese curls & chili cheese fries)? I'm an eclectic eater but, I think you went too far this time.


3. Clumsiness: Unless you're subtly trying to tell me that I need to do more yoga to improve my balance, I see NO need to hammer this issue home by causing me to fall down. It's completely unnecessary, and the black & blue marks that appear on my body mysteriously the next day are beyond me. Similarly, it should never take me more than 45 seconds to get the front door key into the lock.


4. Furthermore: The hangovers have GOT to stop! This is getting ridiculous. I know a little penance for our previous evening's debauchery may be in order. But, the 3 p.m. hangover immobility is completely unacceptable. My entire day is shot. I ask that if the
proper precautions are taken (water, vitamin B, bread products, aspirin) prior to going to sleep/passing out (face down on the kitchen floor with a bag of popcorn or wherever). The hangover should be minimal and in no way interfere with my daily activities.



Alcohol, I have enjoyed our friendship for some years now and would like to ensure that we remain on good terms. You've been the invoker of great stories, the provocation for much laughter, and the needed companion when I just don't know what to do with the extra money in my pockets.

In order to continue this friendship, I ask that you carefully review my grievances above and address them immediately. I will look for an answer no later than Friday 3 p.m. (pre happy hour)on your possible solutions. And hopefully we can continue this fruitful partnership.

Thank you,
Your Biggest Fan
