Let\’s test your memory shall we?
Oh fuck.
Did you sleep alone the last two nights?
Yep, I generally do.
How long was your last phone conversation you had?
about 15 seconds
Who was it with?
Pete\’s voice-mail
Are you starting to realize anything?
Four things you can\’t recover: The stone…after the throw. The word…after it\’s said. The occasion…after it\’s missed. The time…after it\’s gone.
OK day number two at the daycare, I\’m the executive Chef in case you were wondering. Even my friends think this is hilarious… Read:
Yeah me of all people in a day care, even I think that\’s strange not entirely my deal but I like the predictability of it all. I\’m not against change but I am against drama and stress… Kids need routine, so do I (at least at work, kinda). So it kinda works out for us both. Now don\’t get me wrong, I don\’t hate kids, birth control failures adorable children under the age of 5. Nor do I have an issue with giving your child a bitching, cool ass, name. I like being unique, I\’ve always marched to the beat of my own drummer. Always. I also try not to be judgmental, judge not lest ye be judged and all that. However I have to wonder what on earth goes through people\’s minds when picking a name for their child that\’s so out there. So out there in fact that it belongs in outer space.
Jupiter & Neptune. There are children in the day care who are named after planets. I can think of two children who just might end up hating their parents when they grow up. Perhaps not. OK yes there\’s Venus Williams, lets not forget the Venus fly trap. Not a tennis buff, but that plant is pretty freaking sweet! Also a Greek goddess However Venus is also a planet. Not only that, Venus rhymes with penis. However sporting a Medusa tattoo myself, I can see the correlation behind naming your child Venus. Jupiter & Neptune though? Perhaps their parents are astronauts? Possible astronomers or something? At least they didn\’t name them Uranus like one of my friends pointed out. Here\’s what my peanut gallery had to say about the whole thing:
Tammy: \”I know of another girl named Jupiter Jane…okay…but NEPTUNE?\” (that has the Jetsons written ALL over it)
Babette:\” At least it wasn\’t Uranus!\” (my thoughts exactly!)
Darcy:\”lol\” (coffee almost came out my nose when I made that discovery this morning)
Josh:\”Haha, why do they do it!?
…growing up is tough enough without being named after a planet!! lol xXx\” (yeah I know, hello!)
James:\”Yeah but when he turns out to be the head of a major corporation, and she\’s either some type of hippie therapist/social worker or psychic they won\’t seem so odd. It\’s nominative deteinism in action!\” (OK there\’s always one, that\’s OK because I wouldn\’t expect anything less from him 😉 lol)
Jaime:\”gah! I thought Pyper was an odd name…thankfully my daughters name has become more popular these days!\” (OK first of all, at least it applies to your heritage Jaime and its lovely & unique. I like it!)
Melanie:\”What about the parents in the States who named their son Adolf Hitler? They thought it was wonderful…. Children\’s Aid didn\’t, and little Adolf Hitler Campbell and his younger sisters, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell were \”removed from the home\”. Those parents are winners!\” (there are no words…)
Fallon:\”I know a Rainbow Cloud :)\” (see that\’s hippy chic, I can at least respect that! Or one hell of a raver name)
Lindsay:this is great! lmao….my friend named her kid Treasure….Stripper pole here she comes (I feel compelled to agree with that)
Had a fabulous day yesterday, aside from that whole e-mail thing! Went out for lunch and shopping with Miss Jen and then hung out with her and her future hubby for a bit. I love how its totally acceptable for me to wear my fuzzy pink hello kitty jammie pants & my HK t-shirt so long as I\’m wearing heels to their wedding in May. I\’m classy like that 😉 Then I went to Jolly Roger\’s where Jeff was being his usual thorn in my side/pain in my ass/makes me want to stab myself in the forehead with a plastic fork charming self. Gil wasn\’t there but I made an appointment for April anyway, fingers crossed I have money ha ha! Then I dashed off to see Krystal for a few hours at her place. Which was nice, it was good to catch up with her. I miss our morning coffee/gab fests, when we used to work together. I despise being texted to death though, got my plan back but Jesus Christ if I\’m busy & can\’t get back to you right that second chill the fuck out! Girl needs her space yo & if you (meaning anyone) ain\’t willing to give it to me, then my ass will runneth far, far away from you.
Murphy\’s law, the minute you get a job, everyone and their mother is on the phone to you asking for interviews. I\’ll call them back and see what kind of offer is on the table. I\’m on a temporary 30 day contract with the daycare so we\’ll see what happens. I know I can swing two jobs with the hours I have there & if they offer more money then where I am currently then we\’ll see what happens. Don\’t have proper ID for the background check to go through, which is very specific. Basically they want to see if I have a federal record (which I don\’t) or anything violent, fraud/theft related and most important of all if I\’m a registered sex offender or not. Which I of course have to pay for ($63.00), also had to shell out $50.00 for an infant/child specific CPR course which I don\’t mind too much because that could come in handy. Highly unlikely, but you never know. Its also required by law due to the fact that I am working a facility with children. Oh and lets not forget my expedited birth certificate. Which is kind of my own fault. My last one was \”misplaced\” and by misplaced I know where it is, but the chances of me getting it are nil.
Stupid thing is, I applied for a replacement months ago but it didn\’t go through and its slipped my mind since then. So of course now that I need it like yesterday I had to have it expedited. Its an extra $30.00 but whatever, at least I\’ll have it in 5 business days as opposed to 15 and the sooner I have it, the better. So I better keep this damn job since its costing me a small fortune to work there. At least I get to keep my copy of the background search, which could come in handy somewhere later on in life. The CPR certification is always good to have and so is my birth certificate. I don\’t mind spending the money because its all useful. I just don\’t have a lot of it to be throwing around these days. Then again, who does really? Although I have never had a job that\’s cost me so much money either. Isn\’t the whole purpose behind working to make money while there? Anyway…
Oh goodness! Some people never cease to blow my mind. Just when you think something is over, it never really is. Well at least not in this case. I use reCAPTCHA which is free software to stop spam bots to hide my e-mail address that I have set up for this blog. I get enough spam messages as it is, who needs more? Anyway that being said, I have quite the following of readers (thanks guys!) and do get the odd e-mail from time to time about various things/compliments/asking for advice on something or whatever. I don\’t mind that at all, unless its something utterly ridiculous such as this. I also love calling people on their BS 🙂 However this time, I\’m not going to bother responding privately because its just SO utterly bogus (not to mention exceptionally amusing to me) so I thought I would share in the nefarious glee that I have in doing so with the rest of my dear readers. Normally I wouldn\’t bother to stoop so utterly low, but this guy is a psycho-pathetic ass who obviously reads my blog (otherwise how would they have my personal e-mail?) also seems like he doesn\’t want to let go. So to protect my own interests, I decided against it. I also created an e-mail just for my blog which I should have done in the first place (ah well live and learn right?) Besides this is pretty damn funny (at least to me) and well hey why be selfish and keep this all to myself? Not only that, this isn\’t the first stalker I have had and I somehow doubt he\’ll be the last…
