Not important but read anyway
Well most of my posts are not important but I think it is a good idea to have some of my thoughts readable to the world.
So I think I am hungry right now so the poll of the day is food related but not like most people would think.

Walgreens
I hate Walgreens in the morning. The high school kids are there and they can only come in two at a time. Which makes the whole experience just painful.
Well I bought some hair clipies, cocoa butter lotion ans new chapstick.
The chapstick will be is awesome. It is Chapstick All Natural. So next time your out pick some up. It smells really good.
Well I think it is time for a nose update: Well it is crap. I am trying all my techniques. Except saline spray that is always the last step because it makes my throat icky.
I am really excited that I am going to have french fries today for lunch and Jimmy Johns for breakfast. Sounds like fun right.
I am going to try to make today and fun filled day for blogging.

Say goodbye to The O.C.
Well its time to say goodbye to the show that sweeped the nation then fizzled bad. Well Today is the last episode of The O.C.
I must admit that I watched the first season religiously and caught part of the second then lost all interest. Well It had it moments in the beginning and I am sure int he episodes that I didn't watch.
For all the fans. There will be a new show that you fall in love with and they will cancel.
Here are a couple links that will bring back some O.C. memories.

Today's Poll
If you happened to see the first poll it was slightly flawed. So I decided to fix it in hopes to get the real feelings of the people (you). Here is the new and improved poll.
I like...
peanut butter. I feel bad for the rest of the peanut butter lovers out there whose favorite brand of peanut butter is Peter Pan. Well there has been a recall on some peanut butter: http://www.fda.gov/bbs/topics/NEWS/2007/NEW01563.html
So check your brand out.
For the record I like Skippy. Which reminds me of a conversation I had once I tell you all about it later.

She does not help me with my obsessions . So she finds a place when I can watch John Mayer clips. Who does that help? No one.
What's New??
Well I haven't done my normal activities today so I am a little light on material right now. Well I will chat it up and have more later.

Germs
So I was watching Good Morning America this morning and they said women's desks had more germs on them than men.
This surprised me. Although I am not included I wipe my desk down with CLorox wipes on a regular basis.

Delivery People
I don't know how many people have had experience with DHL (the delivery company) but I mentioned to my boss that I was having a package shipped through them and I was worried. I shouldn't forget to mention that they are the mentally challenged of delivery services. So after to attempted deliveries I call the company to find out what is going on. Here the deal. They are attempting to deliver to the post office. Once at 6:00pm once at 6:15pm and again at 7:00pm. Obviously the post office is closed at those times as I am sure the delivery guy could have noticed by the hours posted on the door of the post office. Like I said I called. The woman told me that they were attempting to deliver to the post office so they could deliver (which is stupid) and the post office was closed. So I asked were they going to attempt to deliver before the post office closed. She assumed so. What does that mean. SO she said she would call the driver and ask them to deliver before 5pm.
How is delivering a package that hard. UPS and FedEx do it (kind of).

Who will I vote for?
Well I have been reading a few articles and watching a little tv to help me decide who I would like to be the next president of the US. Well I don't know. Its a good thing there's plenty of time.
So I have not decided on anyone yet or even have strong feelings about anyone now but I think it is unfair (and this is why I would never make it in politics) to expect someone to say something they did (or voted for) in 2002 was a mistake. Hindsight is 20/20.
Yes I think that somethings could have happened differently and that fear played a large part in what we were willing to except in 2002 compared to 2007.
Anyway I will continue doing my research and will report back.

Feb: Crazy Month
I know that this doesn't make me crazy but my sweatshirt obsession makes me look crazy.
I am cold 75% of the time. Unless it is above 85 degrees I'm cold. I wear sweatshirts as the help keep the heat in.
The reason I have so many sweatshirts is...
I don't like to do laundry there for I need a rather large rotation of sweatshirts.
Now for a real crazy of mine. I am a selective germaphobe (I don't know if that is an actual word). I can't handle people who I don't know sneezing or coughing or being what appears to be ill in my present (or earshot). I start to freak out and want to disinfect things. Now for people I do know its a little different it depends on how sick they are or if they just have a cough or something. If they are really sick then I will more than likely freak out and not touch anything. If they are not sick I will try to pretend that I believe that they are not sick so I can have normal interactions.
My brain likes to believe that I am susceptible to things like TB, whooping cough and the plague. Although I have never thought I could have caught the plague the TB announcement freaked me out for the rest of the day (9am announcements are not the time for stuff like that 5pm as I am going home is the proper time). i remember we had a mumps scare that freaked me out too. Man is it good that I know I'm crazy and don't that me to seriously.

Stein Optical
All Stein Optical employees suck. I have had wonderful experiences with the eye doctors there. The rest of them all suck. What happened to customer service. I know its called being understaffed or having employees who just don't care. All I want is contacts or new glasses or whatever it could possibly be. Pay attention to me Stein Optical employees. Oh I am on hold with them right now feeling ignored.
When my friend worked at Stein Optical I thought oh know what are they going to do to her. I like her and they are going to force her to suck at life and that would have made me sad. She no longer works there and therefore does not suck.
Still oh hold. it has been over 5 minutes.
Update: After ten minutes of being on hold I gave up.

The crazy is loose
As we all know know February is a good month because everybody wants to label it something.
It's Black History month
I think it is GMA's month of love
Somebody's doing bar or bartending month
Well I think I should get in on the action. It will be get all my crazy out month.
I figure this will be partly therapeutic, a little sad, and a whole lot of amusement for some.
To get a few things out of the way:
I'm a little bit obsessive. IF you guys couldn't tell that already. Case in point. John Mayer - I really can't help myself. Remember I said a little bit obsessive, I'm not stalking him or anything and won't for all of you who are worried. I gave up stalking and am now going to healthier ways to entertain myself. Once again John Mayer does not need to be worried.
You may all think that this nail/manicure thing is new. It's not. I used to be a nail biter I have gave up that habit because its disgusting for one and I have picked up a new nail related bad habit to take over. This one maybe worse than biting my nails. I pick at my cuticles. This one is not nearly as bad as the nail biting but if I don't get a manicure soon this is going to get out of hand. Right now I am taking breaks in typing to pick. Plus the horrible dry winter doesn't help.
When I allow myself to have chips and dip, that gets out of hand also. Once I have had them I think about chips and dips for days maybe even weeks. I have to move on quickly from this topic because there will be a vicious cycle no one wants to deal with. Just ask Jenni what happened the last time we watched Grey's Anatomy at her house.
I am done withe the obsessions for a while I think those are enough to deal with right now.
I'll write more later maybe starting with being germaphobic and a little bit of a hypochondriac.

My Internet Skills
So everyone knows that my internet skills are hit or miss. Somethings I can find things easily other times it is like it doesn't exist. One of the few times that my internet skills are right on is when I am looking for something John Mayer. Beth sent me a text this morning saying that John Mayer was going to be on CBS today. I missed the text and therefore missed John Mayer on tv. I didn't miss John Mayer though. The internet did what it needed in record time to bring me and John closer together. (that was a joke) It's not time yet. Some of you know what I mean.

iTunes Library
So as random people go on and off of Prowlnet, checks out the shared libraries. David (unknown to us) likes all types of music but the most offensive to Beth is Nickelback. We thought that was just an odd selection of music. Now we have come across Alex (unknown to us) whose library is only rap except for one thing... Nickelback. Now is there something weird happening or is it Nickelback being awesome. You tell me.
We will keep and eye out for other Nickelback sightings.

Nail Care
As mentioned before I need some serious work on my hands. My cuticles are crap and my nails are horrible. So I have been trying to find a place close to me where I can start with a manicure. I want to start there as these cuticles have major issues. The first place I called doesn't have a nail technician of course this would happen.
Why don't nail salons and in general beauty salons have web sites. Without a web site I have no way of determining if I would like to stop in someplace. Oh well I guess this well be a longer process than I thought.
Any suggestions would be helpful.

The Fast Food Industry
Well who knew Mr. Rapper Wanna-be could cause such a big stink. Well for all of you would do not know what I am talking about. K-Fed appears in a television ad where he works for a fast food restaurant - with dreams of becoming a rap star. Of course day dreaming is not accepting and his boss tells him to concentrate on the fries or something. The National Restaurant Association is upset because they say the ad (a Nationwide Insurance - "life comes at you fast" ad) portrays working in a restaurant as "demeaning and unpleasant". I hate to break this to them but when you are almost 30 years old it can very well be a demeaning and unpleasant experience. Have you seen the way I can be bitching and degrading when I want a cheese burger or the way I scream at fast food restaurant employees when they can't make a taco properly.
Well I guess to get to my point. I really doubt that people's aspirations in life are to grow up to be a fry girl. Get over yourselves National Restaurant Association. I am sure that when I am in desperate need for employment this post will be found and no McDonald's or Taco Bell across the land will hire me but oh well. I hope they will continue to sell cheeseburgers and taco supremes to me.
