Tabs & Spell Check

Third entry. I don't think anyone even knows this page exists. Oh well. Gives me something to do, and something to look back at in the future.

Trying to decide if it's better to splurge and buy the good rum or surrender and buy the cheap that tastes rather, eh, well rather bad. Well the first few glasses are bad, then taste really doesn't matter.

This weekend I was told by some people I work with that I was going out with them. So I did. We went to a night club place here in town and listened to a band. (One of my friends personally knows the band.) I drank my usual, rum & pepsi. And bought 3 shots for a few of us because it was Talk Like A Pirate Day. Captain Morgan, typically. Then I went to pay the tab later. I'm not sure what I expected, but definitely not a $50 tab. Whoops.

And I have just discovered that I have been spelling 'definitely' wrong for as long as I can remember. Way to go, jr high spelling bee champion.

Small Escape

I first had this blog full of complains against my other, all he did or didn't do that bothers me. Instead, I'm going to make a list of things that make me feel good, or things I love. I need to remind myself right now.

Music. I have had 3 different personal music players, and have felt vacant when without one. Very rarely do I drive in a silent car. My interest ranges from The Offspring to Frank Sinatra to Alan Jackson to Michael Jackson to Weird Al to the Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack. From Danny Elfman to Kid Rock to the Spice Girls to CCR. I currently have almost 45oo songs on my ipod.

Traveling. Of course I can't do as much since I now have a child, but I loved it. Had so many plans to go so many different places. Scotland, Ireland, Seattle, Salt Lake City, Boston, Melbourne Sydney and the outback... Several places in California. New York City. Hawaii. Miami. Maybe I'll get to one of them before I die.

My child. Yes, sometimes I would like nothing better than to hand him off to my mother or sister when he is crying and nothing I do comforts him, yet when he's away from me, I miss him and so many things remind me of him. When he's talking in his own way, and then he sees me and smiles at me, and sometimes I get a chuckle out of him... Seems to cancel everything else out.

Well instead of rambling on, I believe that is it for this entry. I bid you adieu.

Back to Blogging

Part of me wishes I were a big enough celebrity to be able to type... anything... and get fan praise and kudo's for it. I see that online a lot. But it's just wishful thinking on my part.

My partner in crime, friend, and roommate for over 4 years, Sobie, is no longer in my life. We had to leave my beloved feline behind when we moved out of our house and into an apartment a few months ago. I went by and fed her a few times a week, but last week the house maintained new ownership. I wish her the best and won't forget her.

Eric finds it creepy that I have suddenly been watching several 9/11 videos. I don't agree. Something about them just makes me want to see more, probably to try and understand more about it. Yeah, people hijacked planes and killed thousands of people. Yeah, most of them were civilians. But I wonder about things like, how many people survived the collapses, just to perish when they weren't found in time. How many people in the buildings saw the plane coming right at them.

I was in high school at the time it happened, and was told later on to write a paper of the one phone call I would make if I saw the attack in person. I wrote myself as being in the second building, on a field trip, calling my aunt, and seeing a gleam of silver in the sky as everyone around me starts panicking.

Hmm... Can't think of anything else to mention right now, so... bye.
