Political Mumbo Jumbo

An election year is upon us.

SHIT.

I hate politics. In a conversation amongst friends and strangers I can keep up with most topics. But as soon as things gear towards a political slant my eyes glaze over and I begin to drool on myself. --Bored. Outta. My. Mind.

Many theories exist as to why this happens. The first is that I like to hide in my own little Utopia of life and ignore the drama in the world. Pretty sure this is true. Why stress over horrible situations when I feel like I have no control over fixing them anyway? I know, its a cop-out. But at least I acknowledge it.

Another theory is that I am lazy. This too could be very true. After all, one should not vote unless they are up-to-date on the platforms of each candidate. And I don't WANNA research all that.

But the most accurate theory is that I am full of too much empathy. I could listen to debates for two or three people and see things their way every time. I mean, each person running is going to have great ideas and stupid ideas. And, with few exceptions, I think that they all balance each other out in the end.

Candidate #1: Come join us in our quest. The grass is greener on our side of the fence.
Ms.B: Oooh, pretty green grass. I like green grass.
Candidate #2: No, no! Come join us on our side. Not only is brown grass a nice change of pace but we are conserving water too!
Ms.B: Oooh!

No more

After much suspicion and a little research, I've decided that it is the Penicillin that I have been taking that is making me feel so horrible. I start the day feeling great and as soon as I take that first pill begin to feel completely rotten. I'm not having the super scary reactions that some people do when taking this med, but at the same time I can't ignore that it is causing adverse effects. Left a message at the Dr's office a short while ago and we'll see what they tell me when they finally return the call. Either way, I'm NOT taking any more of those pills they gave me.


No more!

What every trailor hitch needs

When I first read the article about a small town in Virginia making it illegal for people to put rubber testicles on the tow hitches of their trucks, I thought it was a joke. Why would anyone want to do that? And therefore, if no one is crazy enough to do it, why would there need to be a law against it?

Horrifyingly enough, this is a true story.

WTF??

*drools*

Friday wasn't bad. Okay, so logically, its safe to say that I felt horrible, but I expected to feel that way. After all, they had ripped two teeth out of my head. So Friday-Blahs were okay. Saturday was achy. Drugs from the surgery were no longer in my system and I was relying on Lortab to keep me out of pain. Unfortunately, Lortab is the devil. It simply can NOT be taken without food or you will wish you were dead. And the idea of chowing down on food when you've just had teeth removed is not a fun idea.

Sunday... another icky day. I was feeling gross. PLUS the idea of working on Monday loomed before me. AHHHHHH!!

Monday showed up and BLAH! I felt so horrible!! Monday afternoon was the worst of all. Thankfully I had some sick days at work and was able to take one more day off to recouperate. Back spasms and headache and my jaw was more swollen than ever. Nightmare.

Now its Tuesday and I'm sitting here at work wishing I was at home. But I am HERE. And that is progress. My jaw is huge but doesn't ache as much. I am still feeling vomitous and my headache won't go away. But honestly, compared to yesterday, I'm doing swell!!

SWELL!

Thank goodness I don't have any more wisdom teeth left to cause me horrible thoughts of ever having to do this sort of thing again.

WIN!

Ms.B

p.s. I hope that my "fog" ends soon. I can handle the pain. I can semi-handle the sick feelings. But the wierd "Outside of yourself" feeling won't go away. And I've never really had to deal with this before. And I can't even blame the drugs since I stopped taking them and now only have some regular pain killers in my system.

*goofy*

Reported by: Yahoo! News

WARSAW (Reuters) - A Polish man got the shock of his life when he visited a brothel and spotted his wife among the establishment's employees. Polish tabloid Super Express said the woman had been making some extra money on the side while telling her husband she worked at a store in a nearby town.

"I was dumfounded. I thought I was dreaming," the husband told the newspaper Wednesday.

The couple, married for 14 years, are now divorcing, the newspaper reported.

______________________________

So who should be more pissed off? I mean, the husband was AT the brothel. Just why do you suppose he was there. He can't really fault the wife for cheating on him. This looks like a Pot & Kettle situation to me.

And kinda funny too.

Stubborn, yes.

She pestered me to tell her for days. Even a long weekend apart didn't distract her from wanting to know.

But I wouldn't tell. I never did tell.


And I never will.

And yes...

I STILL need my Neopet Intervention.

Save me, someone, SAVE ME!!

Or find me a NeoPet Sugar Daddy.

*ponders*

Red Fury II

For reasons unknown, I am a grouchy grouchy bitch today.

Random things that people do or say (including myself, at times!!) seems to grate on my every nerve. Stupid comments seem extra stupid. Simple comments seem extra simple.

Maybe this is because I am scared about my oral surgery on Friday. Not that it gives me an excuse to go around thinking that some of my co-workers are suffering from Alzheimer's and/or lack of brain cells.

What is wrong with me?!

The fact that I'm not sure why I'm acting this way is the most annoying thing of all.

Dammit!

Not to mention the fact that I originally typed the Title of this entry as "Red Furry", which normally would have given me the giggles at the perverted visuals that came to mind, but instead pissed me off even more.

On a positive note: I got my "Green Kau Morphing Potion" this morning shortly before I left for work. It is now featured in my Neopet Gallery. If only I could win the NeoLottery and get the items I will need to make my Kau Items complete. *sigh*

Observation

You only feel guilty about leaving work early when you know you really aren't feeling that poorly.

I could have kissed her

Oral Surgery is scheduled for one week from today. When all is said and done the remaining two wisdom teeth in my head will go far far away and never again will I have infections in my jaw caused by a tooth that likes to come in... then out... then in... then out, or is it in?

I had a consultation today to examine my mouth and determine the game plan for next week's cut and yank parade. As I entered the lobby the receptionist asked for my name and then politely inquired about my age. I thought this was odd but I reluctantly told her.

She began to chuckle and I inquired as to what exactly was so humorous. Apparently she had been under the impression that I was younger than 18 and would need a co-signer on my paperwork.

BLESS HER HEART!

2008!

Last year's blogging ended with me recapping all the adventures of 2006. This year was blissfully uneventful. Therefore I have no amazing recap.

YOU ARE ALL SPARED THE BOREDOM of reading crap like that. What better "New Years Gift" could I possibly give you?

Bwa hahahaha! I need sleep!

Happy New Year!
