Post Random Ramblings

that finds is kinda scary that although Obama is running for president he has never voted. That just seems wrong to me on so many levels. I’ll put my opinion out here even though I’m sure no one else cares. I’m a retired Navy petty officer. I served my country proudly. I have nothing against women, being one myself, but I don’t feel any woman is prepared to run this country. I don’t want a self proclaimed Muslim in my White House either. This country was founded on Christian morals and though I support religious freedom I do not support someone being in control of the most powerful country in the world when they view me as an infidel and by thier beliefs should kill me on sight. I’m McCain all the way, POW, war veteran, old man. Works for me. GO MCCAIN!

right now I’m home… I’m sitting in my bedroom,on my bed, with my laptop on my lap… just where it should be. My radio is on my favorite station and the air conditioner is on low and just now switching itself back on again.

it’s nice to have electricity again.

Sunday afternoon was one of the most interesting days of my life to date. I had never been in a hurricane before… well, that may not be completely true… I’ve flown through one… rushed madly as one was on it’s way … but never held onto the banisters of my own porch and let the wind lift my feet so they were flying off the ground or watch as giant trees a few feet away are snapped in two like toothpicks while pieces of the house break off and fly down the street.

Today we have our electricity back on. We fared much better then some around us through the storm. There were trees that snapped in two all around us, but none hit either the house, cars. We did have some roof damage, but dh knows how to repair that himself, and our power was only out for three days.
dh “jerry-rigged” the computer to the care battery and got the internet hooked up for 10 min. at a time… then we used that to “encourage” our teens … they were able to have 10 min. of internet time after helping with the clean up. amazing how well that worked … lol

I know you’re gonna read this eventually and I’m not sure if you got my message so here’s your teaser. =) Enjoy!

I was at school today and I say this girl who was alot bigger then me was in class today, one of my friends was looking at her today and I said ,”I know I’m big too but if I where that size I’d be bothered with what I look like.” and she replies “Oh yeaaahh I know. The way I look bothers me too.” and I said “My weight dosen’t bother me, people who are bothered by my weight bother me.” and she “Who your good with words, I wanna write that down, to remember it.” And I donno, just made me feel good because she seemed to feel different, better, after I said it. And I drew some corn in coal and it looked pretty good and lots of AP students gave me good complements and so did the teacher!

I’m so freakin’ happy it’s the weekend (almost). I need to catch up on some homework and some sleep. And do a little shopping before my baby comes home. I just hope the bitch doesn’t fuck up my day.

It’s cold today, it was cold last night; got down to 45! This is insane for September. High today is only 66. Which that part is good, but this morning was freezing. It’s too early to be wearing coats and boots and such! I love colder weather, I love the crisp clean air; but it happened so fast. One week it was 85, the next 45. Sherrie says TN should be in the 80s/90s this weekend; I will have to adjust from cold to almost hot! :-) Should be fun!

If one more dumb bitch makes a comment about me being crazy, I swear I’m gonna cut their throat!!! You don’t know me or what your ridicule is capable of causing. Back the fuck up before someone gets hurt (more than likely you). Thank you and have a great day!

Do you think I relish the fact I have to act like Mary Sunshine twenty-four-seven so I can be considered a lady? I’m the Marcia-fucking-Brady of the Upper East Side and sometimes I want to kill myself.

because I’m feeling sick or if it’s because I’ve stopped taking my meds but I’m feeling really low. I slept all day yesterday from the time I got home until about 10 this morning. Woke up a couple times but went right back to sleep. I felt so bad I didn’t even get up and go to bed, I slept on the damn couch all night. And in all this I didn’t get to talk to Matt on the phone. We texted yesterday but we were having a bit of a diagreement so it wasn’t really uplifting. I just wanna hear my baby’s voice. I tried calling him but he’s either working or sleeping or out with the guys, something. I want him to come home so bad. I HATE being alone. I want him here to cuddle with me and talk with me and give me kisses and lay down to go to sleep with me at night. I want my baby to come home to me. _cries
