SUGAR BUZZ (shoog'er buz) n.

A phrase describing the highly candy-ized state of children on the holiday known as Halloween.

I picked up Princess from school today only to find she had invited several of her friends trick or treating. Without consulting me. We wandered up and down my street, got loads of candy, and came back to find Dustin's mom gone on an errand & him locked out of his house. Hubby says all the kids come over to our house because I am the Cool Mom of the Neighborhood. Okay, I can do that.

8:45 pm, all children have been safely sent to their homes and I am friggin starving cause I have had no supper.

And oh yeah, I have to start a 500-750 word paper which is due on Thursday.

Yum.

Daylight Savings is over. Yay.

Not. I like my sleep, and hated waking up at 6am this morning when I usually get up at 7.

Yes, it's late but I had to study. I want my weekend back. (WAaaaah !)

Christopher, this is for you. Heh. Makes you wonder what some of these people were smoking..

AIIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii....

Holy Mother of Astro's, Batman!! I haven't posted in forever ... Go Stro's. Just cause WSox are bitchin about 1919 & driving me nuts.

Got lots of loveley smak goin on round here right now. School starts tomorrow and am in the process of printing off 21 pages of reading that I must do before class at 6pm. Four Hour Class. Once per week. Plus Learning Team Meetings over & above class time that I must work ot with the rest of the team. Oy.

Darling Hubby is off on another trip to NC. These last minute business trips are a bunch of f*ckin hooey. Makes me feel like a military wife which is a pain in the ass. However, he has no control over it which makes me bottle it up & then vent on my BLOG at 9:34pm!! HOOrah....

And oh yeah, I have to tell my screamingly racist white mother that my stepdaughter is 4mos pregnant by her black boyfriend. Yay. But, can ya imagine Thanksgiving & Christmas if I DIDN'T?

To understand her viewpoint, you must know that my mother was raised in the VERY deep South, as in Southern Mississippi, as in the part that just got hit by Katrina. She is very prejudiced against blacks because that's just the way things were in that part of the country during her childhood (early part of WWII, just after Great Depression). I personally have no issues with L, I love her like she's my own and will support her emotionally through all of this. I like J (boyfriend) too, he is a good man and will take care of her and the baby.
I just don't wanna hear all the bitchin that will come from Mother out of this.

I have several friends that are white women married to black men, they are all happy and middle class & etc. and love their kids, & blablabla. Mother just does not understand the attraction cause she just wouldn't do that, it's not proper you know.

What-Ever. As long as L is happy, who gives a shit what anyone else thinks about it. There will be a darling little grandbaby boy along about March and that's all we need to worry about now, besides the fact that L is losing about a pound a week cause she can't keep anything down.

Oh well. Off to bed. I really will try to post more. Will help with the writing courses I must take. Yum.

Argh.

At least my eyeballs are no longer boiling...

Take it from one who knows.. strep throat is a bitch.Went to doctor yesterday after having that odd floaty feeling & trouble moving Wed pm. at church. Needless to say, I did NOT teach little ones like I normally do, did not want them getting this nassssty smak. Doctor gave me an antibiotic shot in my hip which still aches a bit today (Fri), I am up and moving but only because I have to. Fixing to go back in bedroom & collapse again.

Later.

Hah. My hubby will like this..

Men’s Rules For Women
We always hear “the rules” from the female side. Now here are the rules from the male side. These are our rules! Please note… these are all numbered “1″ ON PURPOSE!

1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You’re a big girl. If it’s up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don’t hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
1. Shopping is NOT a sport. And no, we are never going to think of it that way.
1. Crying is blackmail.
1. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one:- Subtle hints do not work!- Strong hints do not work!- Obvious hints do not work!- Just say it!
1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it.That’s what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.
1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.
1. If you won’t dress like the Victoria’s Secret girls, don’t expect us to act like soap opera guys.
1. If you think you’re fat, you probably are. Don’t ask us.
1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.
1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.
1. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
1. Christopher Columbus did not need directions and neither do we.
1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.
1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
1. If we ask what is wrong and you say “nothing,” we will act like nothing’s wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.
1. If you ask a question you don’t want an answer to, expect an answeryou don’t want to hear.
1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine…Really.
1. Don’t ask us what we’re thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as baseball, the shotgun formation, or cars.
1. You have enough clothes.
1. You have too many shoes.
1. I am in shape. Round is a shape.
Thank you for reading this. Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; but did you know men really don’t mind that? It’s like camping.

Oh. My. Gawd. (update)

He sent the check I wrote him back uncashed, with my original letter and a check to reimburse me for postage. No letter, no response, no nothin'. I have proceeded to return his check back to him, uncashed. Play that game with me, jackass. I dare ya.

Holy Schniekes.

Sorry for not posting for so long, my broadband service has been down for a week.

I have had lots of stuff to comment about, but my new company (same position, same building, different floor, different rules) will not allow blogging even on lunch. Oh well, I will try to stagger my entries..

Re: John Roberts. Sorry, he may have the best judicial record since John Marshall and I have no problems with his politics, (thought it was funny how he eviscerated Ted Kennedy too) but he looks so much like Frank Burns (M*A*S*H) it kills me.

Re: Harriet Miers. Who?

I have also applied to University of Phoenix to try to get my bachelor's degree in business with an accounting emphasis; this is highly amusing to anyone who knows me well since my unskillfulness at anything mathematical has occasionally been cause for amusement. However, I did completely piss off my sister once by not only adding her tip to her receipt to round it out but doing it upside down... (she was sitting across the table from me & her receipt was turned to face her.. )

Anyway, Princess wants to get online now, she has been sick with strep for 3 days & is just now getting out of bed.

Later.
