Feel good Friday

Feel good Friday….ok I think this will be my longest blog to date if ever again

Good Morning Family it is Friday and here in Boston its going to approach and in some parts of the region pass the 70 degree mark. *thinking to self* and Why didn’t I call in sick today or take the day off. I have plenty time to use. What was I thinking? Damn!!!!

Well my father has not skipped a beat he is his ole crazy self and anxious to depart the hospital as I knew he would.

So I leave work and go to the hospital and ask for his room the woman behind the computer check the log and tells me oh he don’t have a room. I’m like oh does that mean hes going home? She replies no we don’t have a room for him as yet; he’s still in the recovery room. My next question is when will he get a room in which she responds within the hour, they are cleaning the room he’s to be in now. And for me to go to the waiting room and someone will come talk to me about this.

I go to the waiting room and 2 other families are there waiting on they loved ones. So I sit and listen as they are going back and forth on current events and what the person is in for. Come to find out one of the families has been waiting since 10 am for the patient to come out of surgery that should have only been a one hour procedure. It is now 4:45. and the other family was there since noon and that surgery was scheduled for 1 for that patient and they are getting conflicting stories that the patient is on the table and another story that he is in a prep room. Shortly after a doctor comes out and calls for the 2nd family and said there was a delay and that the family is next on the list!?!?!?!!? And that’s the first and only update that either family has had all day since waiting. And the 1st family is still up in the air as to what was going on.

So by this time my Mom has come up to the waiting from its now 5:30 (1 hr since I am getting there) and no one has come to talk to me about my father or his room situation. I get up to go find the nurses station when an orderly passes by me with a patient…. my Father. So we go to his room and set up camp.

My sister and Niece come up to the room and as soon as my niece (17 months) sees my father, hears all the beeping and sees the tubes, senses something was wrong and gets a sad look on her face and in near tears. She is too smart for herself I swear. So I take the baby and bring her over to the bed to give her grandfather a kiss and assurance that he is fine. And she just starts running her mouth (in her baby babble) to her grandfather.

The Nurse comes in to check vitals and make sure all is ok with my Dad and puts the blood pressure monitor on him and as for a finger to clamp on the monitor. she asked for it. her words exactly. give me the finger. my dad promptly gives her the bird. we all had a good laugh.

I won’t go into the gore details as to what happened for the rest of the time I was there other then the doc came in and said if he starts to run clear and and urinate on his on with out the aid he can come home today.

So we shall see…….

Wild Out Wednesday (WOW)

Wild out Wednesday.

Good day fellow bloggers and lurkers. Seeing how most of us are in an office setting for our day jobs. What is funny in your surroundings today.

There is this female co-worker that came in BURNT Lobster burnt. She went tanning for the 1st time this year as she was having the winter blues or whatever the technical term is and she couldn’t tan last year because she was pregnant. I’m looking at this girl like are you insane why would you let yourself get like this. (Don’t you feel yourself starting to cook or get burned?) She said that she didn’t know it was happening and was only in the tanning bed for the minimal time and always burns the first time in. DA FAWK… Why would you subject yourself to this? You can feel the heat coming off her skin and she’s walking around like Frankenstein so she don’t brush her arms against the rest of her body and she’s not a small girl either so its gonna be funny to see how this plays out.

Next funny thing going on, a co worker beside me took another job within the company and told the rest of the department (probably so her greedy assed self can have a party and or cake in her honor.) Not even a five minutes after she makes her announcement that I hear the scavengers going to work as to who will get what from her desk, and who will want to move into her desk…. I swear no ones stuff is safe or sacred. See my Manic Monday for a better insight. *giggle*

HOLLA!!!

Talk bout it Tuesday

Tell it to me Tuesday.


Morning fam, its Tuesday and its starting to look like spring although it don’t feel like it much. But it’s getting there. Unlike most of my blogger buddies I don’t have entries every day nor 5 pages like some. guess that I need to stop working so much and get out in the world so I have things to talk about, not to mention I’m not getting any younger and need to start thinking family (shudder) and give my parents they grandbabies they’ve been seeking for some time now.

So I’m here working late as usual at the office and listening to Michael Basiden as I try to do when I’m here at work bcuz we here in DA BEAN can only get him on the internet, also and his show is from 3 – 7 pm but my normal hrs are til 4 so its not worth logging on the net for an hr if I’m not staying.

So anyways he has on this gentleman that is engaged to be married and found out that is fiancée has cheated on him and his wedding is in 30 days and is asking for advice. It was a welcomed twist hearing the women dawg out his fiancée and giving the brotha advice. He definitely need to get tested which was the first thing to enter my mind.
Another segment of the days show was men and women holding on to an ex for that special attention that he/she gives even when they or you are in another relationship.

We all have had that ex that we think about that “DAMN” he/she was the bomb but why go back. There’s a reason why you are EX’s right?

Sunday Afternoon Edition

Hello and good afternoon from my bed. (on the laptop). Haven't been outside and don't know whats its like if its cold / hot. I think its Sunny cuz its bright inside my bedroom.

So anyway I was/am watchin VH1. dont know why, that's what the TV was tuned into, and I was watching The Surreal Life and Hogan knows best. I gotta say this with passion. I HATE THE RICH FOLX.
Hogan lets his kids get away with murder... and when he sees them gettin full body massages (daughter) and buyin expensive parts for cars (son) he then supposedly is going to take things into his own hands and makes them get jobs..... FOR A WEEK ONLY.... and said now you know the value of a dollar and let them have back all the things that he took away from them and the back to doing what they were before.... WHY... What was the lesson learned if you gave them back all they credit cards and cellphones that you were complaining about.

What you think.

Freaky Friday

Ok Ladies (and men if you dare to) so I'm listening to Michael Baisden on the radio yesterday about women that use toys frequently and getting desensitized to having the real deal. Ladies do you use them? how often do you use them? Those that have significant others have you introduced them to your mate and what was his/her reaction?

NOW part 2 of this Freaky Friday....Those of ya'll with the children... Do you know if your kids have found your goodie draw.... or your toys in general... or have YOU yourself found your parents goodie draw


*pulling out popcorn*

Your Blogging Type Is Clever and Witty

Of all blogging types, you're the best with words.
Almost every blog post you write has legendary quality.
You have a perverse sense of humor and often play devil's advocate.
Impatient and picky, you tend to go off on funny rants from time to time.


Why the pic gotta be of a chick!?!?!?!?!?

Thank you Adam




Thank You Adam
The New England Patriots let Adam Vinatieri get away. The Colts, of all teams, now have the legend. If it was about money, I don't know why they wouldn't give it to him. He deserves it. The Patriots should have known they couldn't keep giving him the "franchise tag". Pay the man, he's worth it.

...Next Point

The New England Patriots have won 3 Super Bowls. They won those 3 Super Bowls each by 3 points. Are we seeing a trend here? I do. It's not hard to see. Without Vinatieri we don't beat Oakland, to beat St. Louis to set the pace for our Win streak and next 2 Super Bowls. If that was too hard to understand, I'm sorry!

The Morning After

Well we’re moving on up…. To the East Side…. To the deluxe appt in the sky…….

Good Morning peoples from my new clean and furnished desk. The move started yesterday at 5:01 (when most of the people dash out the door) its funny how I don’t see that mad dash cuz I’m normally gone by 4 but been doing OT becuz of tax season. Gotta make that extra cheddar when you can… Nahmeen…..

So I finished the final touches this morning… hooked up the puter and now have my back at the wall and face towards the walkway so I can see people comin at me and no one can come up behind me. So now I don’t have to keep lookin over my shoulder.

My boss comes in and lets out a belly shakin laugh saying that I’m cold and heartless that I didn’t let the chair get cold before I moved in. in which I promptly responded that the chair wasn’t touched. I brought my own over. The only thing that I’m using of his is the Monitor… no need to move it cuz it’s the same as mine. But I brought my keyboard, Mouse and Mousepad.

It sure does feel nice sitting at my new desk…

Manic Monday update

*grim music playing in background*

Ladies and gentlemen.... its my utmost displeasure to inform you at 11:25 am today Monday March 20, 2006, my co worker go the walk down the Green mile to the electric chair that they call Human Resources.

During this time a fellow Mgmt personnel brings a large box, looks at me and chats for a few moments while making a big sweeping motion of moving things into said box to bring to HR.

Not even 5 minutes after the Mgmt departure then the Vultures move in for scavenger clean up.... some of the things said bout the recently terminated...

Damn... He had tape
Wow... Look at all the postit pads
well, he won't need this stapler... or the staples.


My Boss came back and said that she feels sick to her stomach and wants to throw up. that he was askin her on the walk down if this was it. was this his last time in the building, and she couldn't say nothing back to him.

i'm waiting until 5pm to move into my new desk

Just another Manic Monday

So I’m sitting at my desk with my head on a swivel because I know it’s going to be D-Day for one of my co-workers, waiting for security to come and escort this guy out the building. I’ve know since this past Thursday. He is definitely the fly off the handle type of person, hence one of the reasons that he’s going to be let go that and attendance issues. Thursday afternoon the guy is leaving for the day and I’m staying late to tie up some loose ends and my boss says goodbye to him and has this look on her face. When he leaves the floor I ask her what’s wrong. She explains that he is going to be let go on Monday (today) which would have been Friday, but he had taken the day off (St. Patty’s Day).

So now I have mixed emotions because he’s a pain in the ass at work, always butting in on peoples conversation. Always asking questions on how to do something after almost 3 years on the job, and being confrontational to the shareholders (on the phone) but on the flip side he has a toddler at home.

Now my boss is giving me the reports of what needs to be done today and saying how many people have called in sick today (which in a sense is career suicide on a Monday during Tax season.) and this fool stands up and says well I’m here today. I don’t dare call in sick now a days. My mouth dropped and I wish I could have seen the look on my bosses face knowing what we both know and he will soon come to find out himself

Well it’s going to be interesting to see how this day plays out.

Black White and my Morning Drive.

Black White and my Morning Drive.

So I’m sitting at home waiting for the newest show to take up more of my T.V. watching space when I should be reading a book or going to bed.

BLACK / WHITE

This show was gripping right from the get go and I formed opinions even before people started speaking.

Originally Black Mom – She gonna be a straight up bitch in the house and out on the Road

Originally White Mom – She gonna be the crying bitch, getting all emotional when anyone talks to her

Originally Black Dad – Confrontational / Black Panther type (although he lightskinned with Green eyes) always talking bout Racism this and Racism that

Originally White Dad – Gonna get his ass kicked for using Nigger (Yes ER not NA) too much. Hes using it too Freely

Originally Black Son – Don’t know bout him right now really. He seems too laid back like hes just doing this for his parents and get laid when his fame stock rises

Originally White Daughter – Wigger (wanna be Nigger) she jumped into her role with ease. She got the moves and act like it’s a normal thing for her. That her tan is just enriched greatly.

Question for the day... Why must you go to a dead ass crawl during the morning drive because a state trooper is stopped on the side of the road. And then when you pass him you pick up speed? What is sooo interesting that you have to see him drink his coffee or down a doughnut?

Oh Hell To da Nah....

Why the hell this gotta be so damn hard to do. HTML here and IMG there.. why can't the isht be easy to figure out. but if Missy can figure it out then I guess I should be able to get it........ right? well I guess that it remains to be seen.

Thanks to you Reesie for helping me thus far. I think i'm getting the hang of this. Still a ways to go. gotta add some pictures to really call this place home. ha ha ha. I feel some ILL Wayne tendencies coming on HA HA HA



Moving on.....

So i've submitted my resume for the Finance Manager postion here at my office about 1 month ago. and my friends mother who works in the department that i'm applying for (she told me of the postion a few days before it was posting company wide) called me yesterday and told me the reason why that I haven't heard any word or even interviewed yet is that they are reconstructing the department, demolishing the floor and rebuilding it. (now mind you. we just moved into this building not even 2 years ago) This building wasn't even here 2 years ago. it was just constructed for us and now this new company buys out the old company and tearing is it up and rebuilding. this is pure madness here.

So then she tells me that its gonna be about 1 months time before I hear something as there is no place for an the department right now they are scattered on the floor and don't want to bring aboard any new recruits at this time.


Stay tuned..........

You know its Hard out here for a PIMP

You know its Hard out here for a PIMP ......
I know that i'm not the only person that is surprised with the events that have happened at the ....... Awards show. (dont even remember which one it is... thats how interested I was) but I was switchin channels just in time to see Three-6 Mafia win the award and just missed the performance by them.
Now is it just me or was it too suspect that they were the 1st hip/hop group to perform at the show... Queen Latifah was the presenter of the award that they got. and then they win the award right after they finished performing...

What Say you?

if you didnt see the performance
