Big Spender

This weekend I did a lot of shopping. I don't know why I have the urge to not have money in my pockets but you know I was boosting the economy.

Well I will try to make a run down of what I bought:

Saturday was a jean expedition. I went to the mall looking for jeans, dark jeans. I went to the Gap and picked one of every dark jean they had unless it was over $70 (which I can't justify). I then took up residence in the dressing room and tried them all on. I am happy to say that I found a pair that I liked. I went to Old Navy on Thursday they didn't have my size in the styles and colors that I like. Then I was told they didn't exist. I told the girl that I had them in a different color, her response was "I don't have a good explanation for why the system is telling me that".

What else did I buy?? I went to H&M and got a shirt but because I didn't have time to try in on in the store I took it home and it didn't fit (I returned it on Sunday).

I went to Kohl's looking for new heels, the sale wasn't good enough but I still bought some things from the intimate department (that makes me laugh).

Then I went home to get dresses for ladies' night with Jenni.

Sunday I did more shopping this was planned shopping. I needed to find a dress to wear to Pam's wedding. I don't know if I was successful. But I like it.

I also went to Best Buy and bought a new camera. I love it. I also bought a router, tivo needed internet too.

I can't forget the mac and cheese I bought at Trader Joe.

I spent all my bling units.

Troubled

I was troubled to read today on cnn.com somewhere that General Hospital has had a decline in ratings.

Well as a person that would watch (at least)ABC's soap if I could.

Here are my major problems:

General Hospital is on at 2pm. Well at 2pm I am at work. Unfortunately I must continue to work because I haven't won the lottery yet.

It's not streamed online. I know an hour every day (less than 40 without commercials) would be a hard job. I am just saying that other networks have toyed with the idea and have up two-weeks worth of episodes at a time would do it for me.

It's a digital age people get with the program.

What do you think?

Do you think I am Legend is in my mailbox?

Ok, I know that you will never be able to answer this by the time I go and check but in case....

What do you think?

Half a Snow Day

So it's March and Spring but we here in the lovely state of WI got a ton of snow. Most of us spent half the day at work then went home around noon. I spent my afternoon reading about things I have been hearing about at work but didn't quite know what it meant or what it was.

So some of my searches were:
agile (software) development
Scrum

Anyway that was fun. I was upset that soap operas weren't on instead the news was on because of the snow. I wanted to make a post today and I really don't have that much. Pretty dull day.

Well now I am going to watch a few hours of CSI.

A Question for my Readers

I was talking to a co-worker today about getting tattoos while still maintaining a certain level of professionalism.

I have always wanted to get tattoos om my wrists. The reason why I haven't done so yet is that. I haven't been able to find the right designs yet. This particular person was thinking of a forearm tattoo. I said do it, but also that I was biased because I like tattoos.

I would like to think that in 2008 tattoos wouldn't still be the workplace issue that it once was. I know if I thought I was going to be in a situation where I thought I should cover them I would but that's what's long sleeve are for.

Anyway I would like the thoughts of my readers.

One more post before I go to bed

What's up people????

Well this is the first Tuesday that I can remember having free in a long time. It was a good day Any way. I probably drank to much wine tonight but who cares.

You know life is what it is. People move on. People aren't the same and I think I am moving with it. I am just going to keep up with the flow.

Over my many years I have learned some things:
You can't make people like you
Everyone won't be what you want them to be
You will have disappointments in life
You have to make do with what you have
and many more.

Anyway I hope tomorrow is so much better than yesterday for everyone.

I don't know what happened today - whether it was that I realized something or I really accepted something that I known for sometime. I am having a hard time where I am and I am going to do something about it.

ted out.

Welll since I am not going to stop

I went back to March 18, 2007 on the blog to see what I was complaining about. I thought if I posted anything that day I was saying something that may have annoyed me you know.

What was it: Word Order - I talk funnily some times and I don't like to correct people unless its egregiously horrible but this is that someone said on tv.

"I had prime rib roast with company for dinner..."

It still makes me thing of eating people. That was Sunday.

ted.

I apparently have a lot to say

I am annoyed once again with life. You know I try to live my life in such a way that I don't have secrets and don't need any. There are things that I don't openly share because sometimes it's best not to lay all your cards on the table at once.

So one of my cousins frequently doesn't ask me to participate in activities (whether it be dinner, or out to a club or whatever) that her and some of our friends do because I on a few occasions said I didn't want to go or that I couldn't go. Its funny to me. It probably shouldn't bother me but it does. I personally like to put out the offer out there and see. If someone I invite can't make it they can't make no hard feelings on my part.

It probably shouldn't bother me but it does. Well enough bitching for this post.

I think I might cry

I guess Leonard Cohen was inducted into the Music Hall of Fame March 10th and at the Ceremony Damian Rice performed Hallelujah. Well I just listened to it and man every time I hear the song I start to feel a little sad.

It is a real touching song. Now that I heard that I want to listen to the Jeff Buckley (I'll say it for Beth: "He's dead") version which won't make me feel any better.

Nicknames

Ok I am going to go out on a limb here and embarrass myself because if you can't laugh at yourself I know you will have a rough time in life.

So I was recently thinking of all the nicknames I had in my life and decided to share them with you my readers. If you are brave you can join me in sharing some of yours or adding to my list.

Here we go:

tam
tam tam
tammy
tamarama
tamaramacamera.com (roommates for you)

tedmond
tknochie
miss t knochie woman
poohknochie

Updates:

red

Well I did it and I going to post this and hope no one reads it.

See I'm trying

So I left my house today and the neighborhood smelled of burnt toast and coffee. Not to bad I thought. Made me want toast but that didn't happen. Oh well.

Time to do some work.

Renewed Effort

Every once in a while I have to make these statements for myself if for nothing else. I am going to try to blog more. I will try to do more posts on the weekends and evenings.

So what's on my mind tonight. I was at movie night and we were looking at pictures from years ago. Fun times I think. I miss some of the people I hung out with because they were fun. I even sometimes miss the recklessness that I could have back then. Now I have to go to bed at a reasonable hour and work normal hours.

I won't complain because I could have it a lot worse and I am glad I could have the type of fun that I had.

Tamara Update

Well I have decided that I should post something.

Well I went out on both Friday and Saturday night. I'm a fun time.

I sent out a very important text message Saturday that read "Drunk".

I hung out with about 40 people I didn't know. Which was fine. One girl forced me to eat pizza.

The police in Appleton are bored.

I almost bought a new watch, didn't and now regret it as my watch constantly falls off my arm.

I am wearing the same shirt as I did on Saturday (I washed it yesterday)

I am a awful bowler but I love it. Which leads me to the following equation: Tamara + bowling = Tamara is a brilliant bowler

Beside the drowsiness the new allergy medicines are great. Also no dizziness.

It's my pick for movie night I have no clue what I am going to choose.

I kind of want ice cream right now.

I bought a cool new jacket Saturday morning http://tinyurl.com/2d6so6

I could use a nap.

How smart is Your Right Foot?

Try it?

Just try this. It is from an orthopedic surgeon............ This will
boggle your mind and you will keep trying over and over again to see if
you can outsmart your foot, but, you can't. It's preprogrammed in your
brain!


1. While sitting where you are at your desk in front of your computer,
lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.


2. Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your
right Hand. Your foot will change direction.


I told you so!!! And there's nothing you can do about it! You and I
both know how stupid it is, but before the day is done you are going to
try it again, if you've not already done so. Send it to your buddies to
frustrate them too.
