Day 1 of my 5 day weekend

Why did I forget to shut off my alarm clock dammit not to mention that I didn't get any real sleep lastnite because I think I was coming down with something. I was burning up but freezing at the same time. so I took some Nyquil and knocked out at about 10pm. woke up at 11 tried to go back to sleep. woke up again at 12:30. went to sleep again. woke up again at 1:30 to go to the washroom and finally got some HRS of sleep until dammit 5:45 (WAAA WAAA WAAA...my alarm clock) I get up and feel like shit. and not 100% conscious say that I never take time off... F It and them i'm callin in sick. so I pick up my phone and barely get out the words on my bosses vmail that i'm taking the day off. hang up the phone. bundle back up cuz i'm freezing and about 10 minutes later realize that i'm not working today... I have the rest of the week off. I call my bosses voicemail again and say that I'm a stupid fool as I was not even working anyways and to disregard my previous message.

I lie back down lookin at my ceiling as the sun is now beaming in my room bright and sunny like... WHY ME. I'm not supposed to be up this early. so after tossing and turning for hours cuz I can't get back to sleep I get up at 9 and get my gym gear on and take my behind to the gym. I get there and its packed like it is at night time. and i'm like how many other people have the day off like me. LOL. I get inside and its all Grandma's and Grandpa's and baby sitters (I say this cuz the daycare if full with children).

I get on an eliptical machine and do my 1hr. while doing this I flip on the T.V. and Jerry Springer is on and the topic for todays show is Jerry saving an 850 pound man. While watching this show and getting disgusted at how this man has let himself get to a permanent bed ridden state makes me start pumping faster and harder on the machine.
So the show is 1/2 way thru and I cant take it no more watchin them cut a hole in the wall and take the guy out on a man made stretcher made me gag and I couldn't take it any more. so I shut off the t.v. and put on my ipod shuffle (which I need to update) for the last 1/2 hr.

got off. did my weight lifting and departed the gym. The rest of the day is a blur. didn't do nothing much after that cept went into my store and chilled there. but at 3 got a call from my mom for me to bring her sneakers so she can work out at the gym

Its Vacation Time

Hello Bloggin Fam and you lurkers that come in from time to time. I’m doing some loose end tie ups here at work as I will be off the rest of the week starting Tomorrow, doing nothing but relaxing at home. And because I haven’t used any off time over the winter months and our Fiscal year is July 1st thru June 30th, Starting May 8th I have every other week off from work or else I’ll lose the time and there is no carry over which sucks. SO I have no where to go and nothing to do while I’m off. I can see from now that I’m going to be going insane. The only good thing that can come of this is that I won’t be getting up to the alarm clock.

People are heated because they have used up all of their time and won’t be able to take any time until July 1st and I horded my time until the last possible minute, which pisses off my boss, but she’s happy when I’m not taking time off during the year. I don’t understand… why you getting pissed!?!?!?! Maybe its bcuz she’s one of the ones that used up all her time during the cold nasty months and now that it’s starting to warm up and the suns out later she’s stuck in the office and I’ll be chillin soak up some (hopeful) sun.

I might have to have a chat with CHOC to see if I want to do this bloggin thing from my cell phone. Its doubtful but might want to try none the less…. Or I’ll just bring my laptop with me as its wireless in the back yard or out on the road

Friday Funny

Here is another one of life's funny little stories that MUST be told over and over again, even if just for the simple pleasure of snickering under your breath during a boring drive to work.

I work in an office building. Three floors, parking garage, lots of cool people but a few space shots. The normal office I think.

We have lunch/break rooms. Basically a 10 x 10 room with a couple fridges, a couple microwaves, a soda machine, a snack machine and a sink. This is your basic break room across the country...well at least in Massachusetts...I try to bring a lunch every day. This saves a lot of money in the long run as our cafeteria sucks now and charges way too much money for food that is pretty much warm crap. By bringing a lunch I get to interact with the diverse crowd that also brings their lunches which seems to be more and more people.. (may need a 3rd fridge as its getting packed)...and that's when this happened.

This woman, not huge, but not skinny, with real big breasts decides to stand next to me and wait for the microwave to be free. I'm nuking my lunch and I notice she is eating a salad with LOTS of Ranch dressing on it. Out of the corner of my eye I see a big piece of lettuce, dripping with dressing fall down her blouse between her big breasts.....

Think rock into Grand Canyon...

Without missing a beat, she pulls her blouse forward and sticks her other hand down into it. Her boobs are pretty much out, I can't see nipples though, and her hand is fishing around in there like a drunk going for the last pickled egg. I'm thinking to myself how disgusting this is. A piece of lettuce dripping with Ranch has been sliding between her breasts, leaving a snail trail of dressing down to who knows where. This can't be good.

She gets a satisfied look on her face and I presume she must have caught the little bastard and sure enough, out comes a big piece, with less dressing.Victoriously, she pops it in her mouth...

My mouth was just left open in amazement that she actually did this without even having a 2nd thought...


What say you people.......

Caribana Countdown

Ok yall its time to get serious. Its gonna be soon time to Jump up in Toronto Canada as August is only a couple months away. So while talkin to one of my new found friends Ms. L about Caribana, i've come to terms with myself that its time to really kick this health stuff to the next level. I mean I haven't been slackin in the Gym THAT MUCH but I'm not giving my full potential to what I could be doing either.

So this weekend I made a pact with myself, my sister and mother (since we are all members of the same gym) to keep on each other to get us and keep us motivated in the Gym. and hearing of my Girl Bklyndiva recent gym success story and acomplishments its just makin me even more motivated. so with that said I was in they Gym Sunday morning and again Lastnite.

I left work at my normal time (Goodbye Overtime it was fun while it lasted) and took my behind to the gym, and had my gear in the truck so I wouldn't be sidetracked into staying home if I went there. I get into the gym shortly after my mother and she was heading for the cardio room for aerobics. I jump on the treadmill to warm up. a 15 min 1 mile walk as i'm waiting for the elipitcal machine. I hop off as one opens up and I hop on. put on the headphones and start going at it. about 20 minutes later my sister comes into the gym and an eliptical opens up beside me and we start going stride for stride. she looks over and sees i've been on for 20 mins now and says oh I gotta catch up and speeds up her pace. I laugh and match her speed. we are bout doing about 7 mphs. (whoi the sweat started pouring and my legs are burning now)

so now I am at the 45 min mark going strong determined to make it to my 60 minute goal... not really tired anymore and out appears mom from her cardio class and the machine on the otherside of me opens up so she hops on. it was too funny to see my sister, me and my mom side by side strolling along on eliptical machines.

I make it to my 60 minutes. GINGERLY get off the machine with my legs feeling like rubber and hit the weights

Good Friday.... Damn Alarm

So its Good Friday (the holiday…not literally) The stock market is closed today and so is my office…. So why is it that I’m here and typing in my blog and you’re reading it? Well my dumb ass forgot to shut off my alarm lastnite before bed and it started blaring at 5:45 this morning (my normal start to 5 times hitting the snooze and coercing myself into getting up and going to work) While trying to go back to sleep which now I can’t because I’m awake. The sun is peering thru the windows and I hear the birds outside chirping I’m like dammit and get up and dressed. Good thing its Friday and a holiday I can be casual in Jeans and Timbs.

I make my way to my coffee stop (Dunkin Donuts) and get in line which is long today. I thought today was a holiday… or are these just suckers like I am that lookin to make that Double time and ½ holiday pay (another reason why I’m here.. I guess subconsciously my mind didn’t let me shut off that alarm for this reason). I get behind this high school lookin kid that has a backpack on which I’m assuming is filled with his books (for the time being) and the line is moving quickly as Ann is on top of her game and I guess most to the people are regular customers so she has the order ready for them when they get to the register.

This kid orders a hot chocolate and a couple donuts and then proceeds to pull out a WAD of money. My mouth drops becuz 1. The wad is huge and 2 the 1st bill he peels off is a $100 bill and I notice there’s a 2nd one under it when he fumbles to put the money back in his pocket. (damn he’s so lucky I’m not like I was in the old days otherwise he might have been followed and dealt with hahahah ) so he leaves and now the chatter begins. How the hell he have not 1 but at least 2 $100 bills in his pocket and now the scepticism begins as to what’s in his backpack as there is no school today and folks wondering if he’s carrying heat (a gun) and blah blah blah.

So I try to not get wrapped up and involved in the conversation get my coffee look at the direction the kid is walkin, which is opposite of the Jr. High school. Hop in the Truck and here I sit, in my office, currently by myself as no one will really show up until 9 if at all. So if anyone is out there in Blog Land… HOLLA AT YO BOY

Tattoo Thoughts


I’ve been thinking bout getting another tattoo I currently have one on me. This is on my right shoulder and it was a birthday present from my girlfriend at the time as was getting one and I was curious bout getting one and it was a spur of the moment thing. But after I got that and the saying is true you get hooked and plot what your going to get next and where your going to get it.

I was leaning towards getting at tribal band or was thinking of getting the American Flag and the Jamaican Flags intertwined at the post on my arm, which is still a good possibility of being done.



However last nite while surfing my Myspace webpage I came across this picture of a tattoo and am drawn to it. I’ll just have to take out the Chinese lettering as I don’t know what its standing for and maybe get a tribal around that. I gotta think bout this and possible talk to Ill the tattoo king (that I know of personally) and get his take on it.

Too my blogger family…. How many do you have? What are they of? and, Where are they? (for those of you who want to forward me a pic)

Weekend Festivities

So this weekend was LiL mans weekend. He’s been looking forward to this for a long time and of course being the BESTEST in the world I can’t disappoint. So I go get my hair cuz at about 8 am and head off to the gym Saturday morning to get my workout on and then home to the showers its about 11 am and lil mans mom calls wondering when I’m coming to get the baby (he’s 9 years old…. He is not a baby and don’t call him that) and take him my friends daughters birthday party. I tell her that the party isn’t until 1:30 and I’m not trying to be the 1st person there so I will get him at 1:30 and go from there. So I pick him up and we head off to the party. We get there at 2 pm and there is hardly anyone there as yet. But there was a good spread of food so me an lil man dig in as theres nothing else to do. And of course being the lil clown that he is I find him in this lil get up

People start showing up and its girl after girl after girl. And then just lil man. He looks at me and I at him. We both shrug out shoulders and get ready for the female festivities. At 3pm the clown shows up ½ hr late to do the magic act and face painting while the clown is entertaining I’m chillin in the back playing golf on the cell phone and surveying possible prospects. (NOT A DAMN ONE) either old or taken. DAMN. I then over hear, “Hey handsome. Will you be my boyfriend?” I look up and the clown is flirting with LiL man. He gets embarrassed as all the mothers are laughing and giggling and he runs out the door. I laugh my ass off and then it hits me he’s getting play at this party and I’m not getting shat. LOL.

So after 3 hrs out playing with the clown and all the face paintings here is one of his the others were paintings on his arms.

We go to the movies and see Ice Age 2. The Melt down. It was a pretty good movie but the 1st one was better after which we go home order some pizzas and have a slumber party pull out the sleeping bags hook up the PS2 and Game cube and chill out like the bachelors that we were.

Friday Nite Fiasco

Friday is a co-workers last day so some of the people in the office were going to take her to the company “Watering Hole” (bar up the street from the office) So I figured I haven’t be out in a while that I’ll go for a lil bit and be back in time to get dressed and make it out for 1st Fridays. I leave work and go home for a lil bit as I get out of work 1 hr b4 some and 2 hrs before most that were going so I didn’t want to sit and wait in the office and didn’t want to be seen as a loser walking into a bar by myself and be there all alone. So I go home and wait.

At about 7 pm I make my way back to the bar and come to find out that most people that have gone to pay respects have left already. I’m like what the…. But this girl was not that much popular amongst people so they took off after a drink or two. So the only people left are couple mgrs. from the floor and her best friend so I’m bored out of my skull. Looking at my watch every 5 minutes literally.

It is now 9 and I’m going to leave and go home but b4 I get in the truck I get a phone call from my god daughter’s father. His shocks went and one tire blew out from friction rubbing and when he jacked up the car to put on the spare the car fell off the jack and he thought he bent the frame. (BIG DAMAGE). So as the good friend that I am I go bring my AAA card to him to tow his car back home and still get to 1st Fridays. So I call AAA to start the process cuz they always take forever to get a driver to the call (avg time 45 – 1 hr.) and they tell me this and I’m about ½ hr out from where the car is so I have plenty time. I get a call back in 5 minutes that the driver is enroute and will be at the car shortly. (SHIT). So I haul ass to get to there and see the tow truck pulling up to the car just soon as I got there. Go to hook up the car and the driver then tells me that the tow truck broke down and now needs get another one. (OF COURSE SNAG in the plan).

During this time my phone is getting blown up from Missy cuz she wants to go out and is going by herself and worried that SOMETHING will happen because she is all alone and is BEAUTIFUL. *enter Snicker here* and doesn’t feel she should have to do this. Last thing on my mind is to deal with her. Tell her that she will have to go by herself and I’ll see her if she goes. That I’m in the middle of a crisis and will get there as soon as I possibly can. (1st of about 5 calls from her).

It is now 10 and the car is hooked up and the driver is following me back to Brockton as he does not have GPS and doesn’t know Brockton at all (what happened to the law that was putting GPS in all Tow trucks and Snow Plows) if felt like 10 hrs driving back home as I had to drive slow as the tow truck had to drive slow as well.

11:15 and I’m home jump in the shower hit the hotspots as I still want to salvage SOME of this nite. Get out the shower throw on some clothes and get to the club which is down the street from my house.

11:45 get to the club and there is of course a MONSTER LINE, but the line is moving fairly quickly so I feel I’m going to be ok but I see some friends close to the front so I hop in line with them. Were moving and I’m thinking it’s going to be a good time after all…. Get to the door and the Detail cop says, “sorry folks we are at capacity, no one else tonight”. NOOOOOOO. I’m right there. Next in line thru the first door… already patted down by the bouncer and ready for entrance when I get halted by the damn police like I committed a crime.

Don’t know if Missy was in the club cuz she didn't want to answer her phone now and haven’t heard from her since.

So I leave the club and start to drive home pissed. And get a phone call from the chick who had the going away gig at the bar asking if I’m ok cuz I took off quick to help my god daughters father. I tell her the story and she laughs and said I had a bad nite and in the same breath asks if I know anyone that has any wacky tobaccy (the way she said it) I’m like why would you ask me that. Her response, “Well I figured since your Jamaican you’d know where I can get some”. WTF. Not all of us Jamaicans (as crazy as it sounds) smokes Ganja.

If you reading this MISSY… sorry but I hope you had a good time

There ARE nice people out there...

So I get up this morning on my regular time and feel that its safe to hit the snooze button and get that 10 minutes of just lying in bed talkin myself into getting up and draggin my ass into this G. Forsaken place to earn not even half the money I feel that I deserve *smile* (don't we all).
Needless to say 45 minutes later when i'm normally ready to walk out the door i'm jumping out of bed, grabbin a wash cloth, hit the hotspots. (good thing I had a shower lastnite after the gym) and whippin clothes out the closet to wear.

I get dressed and run out the door, NO WALLET (liscense and credit cards) and didn't transfer my contents from my pants of yesterday to today. NO MONEY and ID for the office. not realizing this until I stop for my Morning Coffee at DD's (Dunkin Donuts)

So I go in and in line (which seemed kinda long today) and wait my turn.

*Good Morning T-Bear (real name)
*Good Monning Ann

*Anything with your Coffee today (she knows my order so I don't have to say what it is)
*No thank you just the coffee

*noticing pants aren't heavy from wallet*
*saying to self* OH SHIID I forgot my stuff

*me* "Umm Ann I'm gonna have to cancel I forgot everything this morning". to which she promptly goes into her tip cup pulls out a couple bills hands me my coffee and a couple doughnuts and tells me that it looks like you gonna have a long day. your a long time customer and a good tipper... not to mention one of the more handsome customers (*me blushing big time*) its on the house today, and I hope your day gets better.

So I say thank you and will pay her tomorrow, to which she says THE HELL YOU WILL. so I move out of line. get in the truck and come into work and had to go the long way round the building thru security because of no badge.

Man Oh Man... This coffee tastes good today for some reason. *sip* Ahhhhhhh

April Shower bring May Flowers, No one said anything bout SNOW Showers

Rain Rain go away, come back some other day. Preferably at night time when I’m asleep. Only time I like to get wet is when I’m in the shower, in the pool or…um… nevermind. But not when I’m in my work clothing and on my way to the office. Then I have to sit and wait in damn traffic, Why people Why. I swear people go from dumb drivers to incompetent when there’s a little precipitation on the road. Now they talking bout snow again.

HEY OLD MAN WINTER….. YOU HAD YOUR DAMN CHANCE TO DUMP SNOW THIS YEAR AND YOU DID ONLY ONCE, AND IT WAS A BIG ONE. GO INTO HIBERNATION ALREADY DAMMIT.

I guess being in New England you should be used to this nonsense by now. And they only talking bout a dusting to a couple inches (YEAH I KNOW I SAID ONLY) snow is really nothing to us up here when we are used to 2 and 3 foot snow falls at a wack and still going to work like nothing happened. I guess Mother Nature is showing up to the job later and later every season.

*hope she sees this* AYE TIGERKISS I guess today isn't much better than yesterday. LOL

Mad Mondays

What’s up Bloggers and Lurkers. Tell me and others why you Mad on this Monday.

Why I’m mad…..

I’m mad that it’s the crunch time of tax season and the company that I work for doesn’t want people to take time off until the last day of the season April 17th this year let alone anytime from April 1st til the 15th. But my boss feels it ok and acceptable to take off Thur and Fri of last week AND all this week but wines and complains if people want to take of ONE day.

I’m mad that I’ve never watched the Sopranos until this season and now I’m upset that I haven’t seen the 1st 5 seasons and now feel that I’m missing out on so much and its hard to follow. But I’m stickin thru it.

I’m mad that although it was was bright and sunny this weekend… it was still freezing cold but it was in the 70’s during the work week and I couldn’t enjoy it.
