GET YOUR HANDS OUT OF MY MOUTH

It'll take about 45 minutes and then you'll be out of here. No problem, I can hold it open that long. I got poked, I got prodded. I didn't open up wide enough so they stuck something in to hold it open longer. Thirty minutes passed. More drilling, more poking, more prodding. I still held it open. Fifty minutes passed! more poking, more prodding, more drilling and sticking things in. An hour passed! I'm still open. They're still poking, prodding, drilling, sticking things in and my mouth is covered with some rubber sheet in which the holder kept going up my nose. An hour and a half later, they're still going at it. Drool is laying on top of my face under the rubber sheet, which still has poles going up my nose. Yet, they are still poking, prodding, drilling, and sticking. Two hours later, they're still going at it. I'm still being poked at, prodded at, drilled at, stuck and now I'm being x-rayed.
TWO AND A HALF HOURS, THE APPOINTMENT TOOK!!! I WAS POKED, PRODDED, DRILLED AND STUCK AT! I'm in pain now. My jaw hurts. I'm tired. To top it all off, tonight, I have to go to a Pampered Chef party. Like I feel like going to be social. All I really want to do is take the codeine the dentist prescribed, drink a glass of wine and curl up in bed. But no.....I have to go buy some kitchen junk that I'll probably never use. This stinks!

AND JUST TO WHINE A LITTLE BIT MORE.......MY MOUTH HURTS!!!!

IT'S MY LIFE!! and a birthday

Ok...for those of you, who keep wondering about what's going on in my life because I haven't been posting about it lately, this post is for you!!!!

Work is going well, still trying to save the world one kid with autism at a time. Maybe one day, I actually will do it and be able to make money doing it. Short on cash lately but surviving!!

This ones for you Kris Things with Toyota Guy are, shocker of all shockers, going well. He's actually a really nice guy. To prove it, he went out with me and a bunch of girl friends from where I used to work to go mini-golfing. It was TG, me, six older women, a teenage girl who is the daughter of my old assistant and one of my old students who has CP and is a daughter of one of my friends. It was a complete catastrophe with us hitting balls all over the course and laughing until we had to pee. TG took it all in, laughed with us, and when I thanked him later for coming wondered why I was thanking him. I'm thinking I must actually like him since I left my travel shampoo/conditioner at his house and haven't really freaked out yet.

Also in the past couple of months, I've finally met Blue and That Girl, both very cool people and looking forward to our next brunch! Let's schedule it!

Got into a car accident yesterday. Some asshole hit me from behind! Cars okay but in need of a back bumper cover. Hopefully he has insurance and they'll cover it!

Had to get a new phone. Unfortunately, they couldn't get my old numbers out of my old phone so if people don't call me I'm not calling you! Because I can't! I don't know your number! Not the best way to weed people out of my life, but unfortunately that's the way it's going to be!

My favorite play, Blood Brothers, is coming to dinner theatre. I talked TG into going with me. Next weekend going to see the Orioles/Yankee game (GO YANKEES!!!) Also going to see the Legwarmers next week.

Oh also learned how to link appropriately when posting. Next step I may udpate my blog and make it a little cooler! MAYBE!!!
So basically that's my life and I'm sticking to it!!

AS A SIDE NOTE ---- HAPPY BLOG BIRTHDAY TO WHAT'S HAPPENING NEXT!

GONE SWIMMING, LEAVE A MESSAGE!!

Some days it just doesn't pay to leave the house. Last night I drove over to Toyota Guys house. It was hot so I poured myself a glass of ice water and put it in the car. I plugged my cell phone into the charger and went driving on my merry way. About ten minutes later I decided to grab a drink...pick up the cup and floating in my cup was my phone...totally submerged!! The phone would not work! I had no screen, no nothing! I got to TG's house and, of course, he wasn't home yet. The truth is that it's not even like I could go to the pay phone and call him because I have no clue what his phone number is. They're programmed into the cell. I have no home number. My cell is my life. I'm completely unreachable.
Today, after yelling at me about picking up my lungs off of the desk, HipChick put my cell phone on her heater. (Yes, it's 90 degrees but our office is so cold you need to put a heater on) I now have a screen but cannot use the buttons. If the phone isn't working by tomorrow I'm going to get a new one. For tonight, MB lent me her phone so the single, live alone girl has some form of communication with the outside world!
So my new voice mail says,
GONE SWIMMING, LEAVE A MESSAGE!!!!

THE WHINY POST

I'm using this space to whine. Why you ask? Because it's my page to do with as I please. So what's my big whine about today.....
I'M HOT AND TIRED!!!

The weather here in sunny Baltimore has been in the 90's the past week or so. It's been hot and within three minutes of going outside sweat is dripping from my face. Yes, I am one of those people that sweat horribly. Luckily it's only my face so it's not like I'm walking around smelling. It just drives me nuts to have sweat dripping from my face.

Now the problem with all this heat is that I'm exhaustsed. I want to nap all the time. I feel like I'm going to fall asleep while driving. I feel like I'm going to fall asleep while sitting at my desk working. I feel like I'm going to fall asleep while sitting on my couch typing this post. I'm just hoping that all my extreme sleepiness is a result of the heat and not an underlying issue. I do have a past history of an iron deficiency so I've been stocking up on the spinach and red meats. I'm just so damm tired! One of these days I'm going to either get fired from work because someone is going to find me slumped over sleeping on my desk or you're going to find me and my car in a ditch because I've fallen asleep at the wheel of my car. So if you happen to drive in Maryland and see a red toyota lying on the side of the road, please honk and wake me up!! I'd really appreciate it!

RANDOM THOUGHTS FROM MY VACATION - FINALLY!!

Ok...I really don't have time to blog about the cruise. So here are some highlights!
**I had to wake up every morning, when we were on the ship, at 7:30 to be at poolside by 8am so I could get four lounge chairs for me and my family. The rest of them, didn't get down to the pool until after 10**
**The whole week I was gone, it rained in Baltimore. Weather on vacation...SUNNY AND HOT!!!**
**I averaged 6 drinks a day (frozen drink at 12, drink while playing bingo at 4, wine with my dinner, a coffee drink with dessert, the drink of the day at the evening show and a cosmopolitan at night!**
**I don't like free-style dining. I don't want to make choices about where to eat on vacation. My family cannot make a choice without a thirty minute conversation**
**The food on the Norweigen Cruise Line, not that great! The good thing with that is that I didn't gain any weight!**
**The staff on the ship are awesome!! I wish in real life I could raise my hand and get a drink**
**I can float on my back in the ocean for hours (and did so)**
**The gambling at the Atlantis Hotel in Nassau really expensive**
**Flirting with Romanian Blackjack dealers until they blush, gets you better cards ("Come on honey, give it to me!")**
**I play blackjack better with a drink in hand (I swear...one night I was sucking so bad that my father yelled at me to get a drink...my luck changed around!)**
**My mother, aunt and I have NO luck at Bingo but we still play it, every day at 4pm...alcohol helps numb the loser feeling**
**Whenever you go somewhere on vacation, you should bring a camera. I missed a great picture of my rather large father laying on the floor doing the worm. I could have made big money selling that picture to my little brothers!**
**If you need someone to cheer out loud for you, don't asks my family! I got voted off The Weakest Link because my family didn't cheer to vote off the other person. A polite clap does not cut it!**
**Sailing on a cattamaran is awesome!**
**When you go snorkling, bring more than one underwater camera! You're going to just click, click and click, run out of pictures and then see something else that's amazing (like a huge turtle the size of a outdoor garbage can)**
**Going on a cruise with my family, may not be the most exciting vacation, but it's fun. ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY PAY FOR EVERYTHING, INCLUDING ALCOHOL!!!**

Well if I figure out how to do it, I'll post some pics but don't hold your breathe on my computer screen. It took me six months to figure out how to link other blogs and still I have trouble with it!

SEXINESS IS IN THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDER

FOR ME TO FIND SOMEONE SEXY, THEY REALLY ONLY HAVE TO DO SIMPLE THINGS!
**brush hair out of my eyes**
**massage my shoulder when it hurts like heck**
**be hanging out with all your guy friends and tell me, no matter how sarcastic I've already been to you, that you missed me**
**hang out with my friends, no matter how goofy they may be**
**curl up on the sofa with me with your arms around me**
**give my dog water out of a bottle lid since he seems thirsty in the car, even though you get water all over you**
**be looking at me, every time I turn my head**
**being completely honest, no matter how wacky it actually makes you look**
**hold my hand or touch me in some way all the time**
**share a snowball with my dog**

SO, WHAT SIMPLE THINGS DO YOU FIND SEXY??

I'M BAAAAAAACCCKKKK!

Hi All!!! I'm tan, I'm relaxed and I'm home!! I'll be getting the pics back on either Wednesday or Friday so I will post then all about the trip!!!!
