Armed with Cheesecake and Vodka, World Watch Out, I'm Back!

After the first disaster date, names “stink date” I went back online that night and took off my profile. Who am I kidding? I thought to myself. I figured every single dude on that site is going to warrant the same looks and smells. After reliving the “stink date” I thought maybe he just smelled cuz he had to work that day, and maybe he lost his fake tooth in the ocean… I stopped pondering after awhile and went to a bar with friends down by the beach. I loved the walk I took to the bar, it was very refreshing and over a 2 mile walk. I figured it could help with the beer I will be drinking, only sad note there was that I would have to walk home. In Ocean Beach though, it was safe to walk home as long as you went a certain way and I would always stop at Roberto’s for my favorite rolled tacos. I got to the bar and met up with a few friends, got a beverage and settled down to watch the Padres on their way to the World Series. There were still a few months to go, but with all of the good loo...

One day a long time ago... I sat in front of my computer, late at night wondering what I was getting myself into. I wrote all of the mini details that they asked for. Still not believing that I was going to follow through with this. My mother thought it was a bad idea, but I told her that it was just like meeting a blind date in a bar. Although, right before I clicked on the submit button I glanced over the information I gave; name, of course I gave my own. Weight, I was in a good frame of mind and my weight was perfect. I was running 5 miles a day and also going to the gym at night. I am sure that the firehouse that was right next door, the same one I would run past every day had something to do with my total commitment to exercise. Height was a normal 5 feet 8 inches. Interests; were of course the normal interest for a 29 year old.. outdoor activities, drinking, reading, things of that nature. I didn't really embellish anything since I really didn't need to lie about things ...

So of course I have this cat.... He of course has grown since this photo, but he is my cat. He is FAT, at a year old his length is over 4 feet. He cannot jump long distances or stare at things until they melt, but he does have: wait for it... SPIDER POWER I used to think that he would sleep in the basement cuz it was cool, and he had this perch on top of the recliner. He stopped sleeping with me, and retreated to the basement. I did take this personally for awhile, then I got over it. He would then sleep all day and I thought something was wrong with him cuz he slept ALL OF THE TIME! While he is in the basement, perched on top of the recliner... he is hunting things. BIG things. Things mommie does not like. Spider crickets are the worst. When you are getting ready to run they jump at you. You scream and shoo it off, only to have it fall to the ground and jump all over the place like they are blind again. Oh and forget the things that fly faster than I walk. FORGETTT IT! S...

So, was it worth it? I can't really answer that question as of right now. Many people have their own interpretations of the episode, and mine matches a few of them, but I still do not feel as held on to it, as I did for example with Grey's Anatomy. I know that everyone was looking for their own closure to their death before they could move on. I understand that you could look at the from a one person pov (Jake) and his journey to the end. The episodes where they were not on the island are not at the same time of the island, because of what Hurley told Ben, "you were a great number 1" so obviously they have had their time on the island and it was a long time since they had that bond. So Ben finally got his redemption and had something worth living for (the island). That was kind of sad. I wasn't sure why Ben wasn't ready to move on, maybe he didn't want too because he found exactly what he wanted to do with his life on the island. Or maybe he wasn...

And it is only Tuesday. It is all my fault though, that I have to admit. I started back to work Monday, working from home and I have been very lucky to be working from home. If I would have known how busy this week would be, I would have stayed home this week also LOL. All of this business I speak of is due to the primetime TELEVISION! Monday I had to wait till work was over, run to the grocery, JC penny's to check out furniture, then to Lazy boy for of course the same reason. Monday was Two and a Half Men, Rules of Engagement, Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother. I had to record One Tree Hill and Gossip Girl. I usually could catch the reruns but of course we all know it is season finale week, and OMG!!!! The Smoke Monster just got Richard! After all of the regular shows, I watched the recorded shows thereby not going to bed till midnight. OH MY GAWD BEN IS AN ASS As you can tell I am trying to multi task.... So today is Tuesday as soon as work was over I went to buy my co...

Wow, Monday morning rolls around and the bunch of banana's I bought were already turning brown. Ugh! I refused to throw away food as one of my goals for this year, so I looked online about freezing banana's and I took each banana, cut them, and put them in individual sandwhich baggies, and then put all of the baggies into a larger one. This will be the perfect way to make my smoothies in the morning and it will be much colder. I then thought well I am going to also freeze the strawberries, but how can I freeze them without them sticking/clumping together. I put some wax paper on a cookie sheet, cleaned and cut the strawberries and then laid them on the cookie sheet. I then put the cookie sheet in the freezer until they were frozen and threw them all in a large ziploc bag. This way I can just take out what I need and not have to deal with clumpy strawberries, which would wreck my blender! I then saw the large bag of broccoli in my fridge, and thought there has got to be a...

So you all know that I could not have animals because of the pet deposit, I stole a kitten and had to return her. *sobs* That scarred me more emotionally than it did the cat, since of course the cat went back to sleeping in a nice warm bed and drinking milk. So, back to the drawing board. I didn't get an allowance so I was very creative on how to could score an extra dollar or so. Sometimes I would buy nickel candy at 7-11, or 5 candy bars at the local liquor store. Sometimes though, I would walk to Gemco, there was a pet store behind it, and I would go into the pet store. I saw mice I saw fish It was very humid in there from the fish tanks. I remember the smell. I havent had a fish as a pet since then... I saw fish for a dollar and I saw mice for a dollar. I ran to the mice which of course were breed to be eaten by snakes and other retiles, but all I saw was the warm beatty eyes... calling to me, please buy me and give me a home... I bought the mouse, it was $1.07. I think he g...

I think the cat was white. I only had him/her for a few days. I was walking home innocently one day and a kitten followed me home one day. Well, that is what I firmly believe, but of course there is another half of this story. I stole the kitten from a friends house. I think I was 7 years old, and I wanted an animal so bad that i actually stole an animal and brought it home. I kept the animal under my bed and would bring him out at night to play with him. I remember keeping water under my bed for him and I think I fed him sloppy joes. A day or so later, I was up early getting ready to do a swap meet with my mom and we are talking in the bathroom and all of a sudden this kiten comes out and and starts stretching his legs and yawning. I was wondering if I would be able to pick up the cat and throw him in my room. My mother took one look at the cat and of course the first thing she said was, "what is that?" I pretended that I didn't see anything and wondered if she wo...

Every since I posted the Nacho's I have wanted nacho's. Each time I come here to write a post, I look at the nacho's and I think.. ohh yumm add some chicken and some black beans and a new plate of nacho's. okay. Enough with the nacho's. I highly recommend the book Sarah's Key. Amazing international best seller, amazing story, amazing journey of two women in two different time periods. I read it in a day. I cried. anyways! Nothing much to post, I do have a good story to tell as always, just putting the finishing touches on it.

I made lunch for me today. Everyone was gone so I checked out my favorite food website ( ThePioneerWoman ). I decided on the Nachos since I could tweak it with the stuff that I had, and I really wanted some carbs. I cooked up some ground hamburger, added some taco sauce, and you can use enchilada sauce if you want, but I wanted to stay as mild as possible but with a hint of flavor. I also cooked a can of pinto beans. While that was simmering I chopped up some tomato, avocado, and shredded some Monterey Jack cheese and added a bit of cheddar to the mix. Then I took some tortilla chips laid them down in a pie plate, covered them with beans and the meat, added some cheese, and a few tomato's then I repeated, omitting the tomato's this time. I then put it in the broiler for a few minutes and it looked awesome I then took a generous helping, and added some fresh tomato's and avocado, added some sour cream and I ATE. It. ALL. UP. Yes, I had seconds. No, I am not sharing. Yes, ...

I have been thinking of a million things since I have been home, and one of them has had a few people stumped. I know that I will never have children again, I am okay with that and if I become rich I can always adopt. People wonder why I am so blunt with the answer and none of them have a clue. I do have a sorted past... I.am.okay.about.not.ever.bearing.a.child.again Number 1 - I am 40 Number 2 - I have one child who is almost 18. Number 3 - I have been through some pain and will never ever want to go through some pains throughout my life and this is one of them. I have no idea where to start. I could start of when I was a teen and a wild woman, drinking almost all day on the weekends and sleeping around without the thought of protection. Yea me! I know I have made mistakes, if you are going to judge then stop reading. Thank you I was pregnant once, twice, three times... try 6 times each time there was a baby growing inside of me... each time the cramps started I knew... and just GAVE ...
