It's Been A While
Well I haven't blogged in a while. Life sure does get busy. I know there is lot of stuff I would love to share. I want to do a music favorites list. I haven't ventured out very far musically but music that caught my attention I think have been very good.
So expect more soon.

The Space Heater
So today I come into my cube and there is a dusty space heater in here. Why? I don't know. I don't know it was manufactured by the Sears Roebuck Co. (which makes the thing older than me).
It didn't come with a note either. Weird I know.
Theories:
Someone wants to kill me (by "accident")
Someone wants to burn down my cube (by "accident")
I'll post a couple pictures then you tell me.
It says, "Source of possible igniton - high temperature. Keep combustible material away from front of heater."
I'm just say it looks suspicion.

Post Thanksgiving Post
So yesterday was thanksgiving.
So one thing we did before dinner is we all said what we are thankful for.
What about you?I am kind of glad I only make these pies once a year they are not very good for you.
Oh I made sweet potato pie and green beans as my contribution to dinner.

I will post more if you read more
Ok that may be a lie (or a mistruth) as I won't stop posting entirely because you (whoever you are) stop reading but I...
There is no but I.
Anyway breathing hurts today. Asthma. I guess. I live alone and while watching tv or sitting on my couch have a lot of time on my hands to think or talk to myself. Yesterday witht he breathing pain I thought of those sucking chest wounds that I see on medical tv dramas. Then decide that maybe my chest pain felt like that but as a bad. I don't know.
Oh I have good news. So last week it was rumored that Lipstick Jungle was being canceled but its not. I started to feel bad for my Tivo.
That's all I got for now.

Wow what an election
There is something to be said about the presidential race. It was a very interesting one. I don't know if anybody could have expected what we saw tonight. The polls just closed on the West Coast and the news people started to make ther presidential predictions. Once it was announce that our president-elect was Barack Obama there was a cheer within the bar.
This presidency means so much to so many. I don't think that I could think of the many ways this will effect lives or livelihood of those who voted for or against Obama.
With such an historic election in front of us I think it is important to realize the impact.
Those of us that happen to be black - The first black president. I know he was not the first to run but he was the first to have a fighting chance.
Those of us who needed change - This country has had its number of issues over the last 8 years and I must say that if you are bold enough to say change is what we need and be honest about it, there's my vote.
I could go on and on. Here is the thing. This would have been an historic election either way. I still have this mind-blowing excitement and enthusiasm behind this. I just can't wait to see tomorrow's news and react.
This is big and exciting.

I have a problem
Well I am big on saying please and thank you and if I am not particularly crabby excuse me. Today I am walking through Enderis to get coffee and as I am leaving Denemark Lounge a guy gets on the elevator. I didn't hear anything but there was a guy already on the elevator and the new elevator guy says "4". Well I immediately say "please". I should know I can't say please and thank you for other people but for some reason I sometimes do. I may be losing it.
Even after I thought "Tamara its crazy to say please for other people" I have the thought that please was probably not the right response (from me or the "4" guy) it should have been "thank you" because I would hope "4" guy wouldn't be so rude as to yell out a number at a guy to push on the elevator and that in fact he must have been prompted in some way.

SNL
So I can't tell you the last time I sat down to watch Saturday Night Live. Like many others who have stopped watching have said "I think it lost it funny". Although I must say that Tina Fey as Sarah Palin is pretty funny. Anyway I have been reading lately that Mark Wahlberg (one of my favorites - give me a moment while I close my eyes and think of him in his Calvin Klein undies) did not find the Mark Wahlberg talks to Animals sketch not funny. I must admit if I would have watched it live I wouldn't have found it funny either but the fact that Mr. Marky Mark is all over the gossip pages about such a sketch is kind of humorous.
Here's the video:

It's soapbox time
Well, well mixed reviews of Quantum of Solace theme song. That being the new James Bond movie. Today it was debuts on a UK radio station. http://tinyurl.com/4l3yaa you can check it out on Buzz Sugar.
In the UK (at least that radio station) loved it. I have only listened to it once and I liked it. I'll have to listen a few more times though.
Here are my thoughts on the matter. When you do a collaboration with very popular artists in different genres of music you are bound to have varying opinions.
Where do I stand?
I like Alicia Keys. Some times I think her heavier, husky voice needs the right music to accompany it. Maybe I'm crazy but I loved the first two albums and half loved the third.
Jack White definitely has an interesting sound, that I love. Listening to The Raconteurs' Carolina Drama. Both vocally and as a guitarist.
When I first heard of the pair I thought that will be interesting. I am not ready to cast my vote about how well they meshed their sounds together. Take a listen, what do you think?

One Tree HIll
As I start watching this week's episode I find out someone dies. Then think I must of missed something did I watch last week's episode. I though I did, well I go back and notice that by some late night genius moment I have. I didn't watch the last ten minutes. It is a hazard of starting to watch a show at 10pm or 10:15pm. Well I go back and I already know someone will die then watch. I am thinking what the hell. So I start watching this week's episode again. It is extremely sad.
I don't understand why they killed off Q (Quentin) but we are only 3 shows into the season. I hope something clarifies it soon. What's the big setup.
Well Brooke is continuing to lie about how she got so beat up. She has been telling everyone she fell down the stairs (well tumbled) at this point I don't think anyone believes her. She has been going to the shoot ranges to learn how to use a gun. I have a feeling that if push comes to shove she will shoot her mother.
The crazy nanny still has Dan locked away in her house. Dan tried to escape again this time out the back way collapsing onto the son grave. Which I thought was really weird. Who buries their kid in the backyard. There is more story behind this I am sure. Dan sympathizes with her but she's batshit so who knows how she will spin it.
Like I said this episode comes right after everyone learns that Q has been shot (at a gas station on his way home from basketball practice). It comes out at his funeral that Deb (Nathan's mom) is sleeping with one of the coaches and Nathan's good friend Skills (Antwon). She goes to console him at the funeral. I thought that was a touching moment (there will be fallout from that also).
Gish there was so much more I wish I knew someone who watched so I have someone to discuss with. Until then I will tell Michael everything there is to know about the show.

ugh
I know that I am a little nutty so I thing I have the right to judge other crazies. I have deemed someone to be batshit crazy and to hear them talk incessantly for thirty minutes to an hour will drive me out of my mind.

If we're friends (and you don't work at UWM (in some cases))...
you can send me a text message that says "do you want to go to a fish fry on friday 4 my work fundraiser?"
and I will say yes (if I am not already booked) because that's what friends do.
ok I like fish.
Plus I am a sucker for raising money for good organizations and friends that need help.
If we're friends (without any stipulations of where you work)...
you could text me and say "do you want to go to Chuck E. Cheese so we can make fun of kids and their parents while eating pizza and drinking beer" I'd say yes because that sounds like a fun time.
There are tons of text messages you could send me and I would say yes to, except for maybe going to a dairy eating contest (and I'd think long and hard about this especially if it was and ice cream and cheese eating contest (i'm lactose intolerant - and I think I would go but not participate) before saying I don't know.
If we're not friends, I'd tell you to suck it and never text me again. (ok that wouldn't happen - I'd probably say no (and then when you asked why I'd say 'because I don't want to, get off my back').
I also think that I may be losing my mind.

A change in affliction
So I use to post about how bad my nose was behaving and although it still has its moments. I take a slew of meds for my allergies so my nose is ok. I made a post yesterday on Twitter about how the dentist was taking over my life. I have a dentist appointment to day in fact. I just had this really weird thought about what I could use as a replacement to the nose posts. Get ready for this...
"My teeth haven't fallen out yet"
I know it is bizarre which now makes me want to look up why teeth would just fall out without extensive trauma.

How late did you stay up last night and why?

If you could move somewhere else, would you?
Yes

Well how did you spend your Labor Day weekend??
Well I went to Ikea on Sunday. Then I put together my chair and the dresser that I bought I am going to say June 13th. I know but its together and in my bedroom. Awaiting fresh laundry to be put in there. I think it may be time for me to throw away some clothes again.
So there are a few more things that I would like to purchase:
Too busy to finish this but take this.

Nacho nacho
Well tonight was Beer and Nacho night at Harry's. I really got nothing but I am watching soap operas and blogging is one of the best things you can do while watching soaps.
Herb Kohl was at Harry's apparently, although I didn't see him.

Pants-off
SO I was getting dressed this morning and while searching for pants I picked up the pair that I wore on Saturday for the Zorn b-day party. Then it come to me, the memory of the mustard incident. I was there to help out with party setup and then to have some fun. Well after setting things out we decide its eating time. So I go for one of my favorite, the hamburger. Well as I am trying to put on the condiments I realize that the mustard is not open. Being the self-sufficient girl that I am decide that instead of taking the help that Erin offers, I can open the mustard while holding on you my plate.
I put the mustard being my thighs so I can unscrew the top, I did that fine. Then I go to remove the pull lid which I did just fine. Except for the splash of mustard on the leg of my pants. Erin is getting a good chuckle as she says, "I told you I could help". Now I have to clean up the mustard which I thought I did. All the while Erin is laughing and telling my there is more. Yes I have mustard all over my crotchal region. Kinda funny. Not like that was the first time that happened. I have a incident at work with something white (I wish I could remember what it was).
SO to avoid this I say no pants.

Superman makeover
Not in the way of a new cape but image. Well I must say I didn't watch the Superman man movie. Now that Dean Cain is not my Superman I've been over it. It shouldn't surprise anyone that after the success of The Dark knight movie makers are trying to find ways to make comic book movies with the same level of success.
I was reading that they wanted to make a new darker grittier Superman movie, since that worked for The Dark Knight. I think they could chalk up some of the "grittier" and "darkness" to the nature of Batman. Superman who is out to save because he has strength and a do-gooder doesn't make me think tough guy like the vigilante justice of someone out to rid violence as a way to avenge their parents death.
Well what do I know maybe it could happen. I like Superman so I hope that the franchise has success. We'll see what they come up with.

It's been awhile
Well on August 21st I had my 21st plus 7 birthday. I had an awesome time last week. Tuesday, was Harry's night. Co-workers sang happy birthday it was kind of weird but I will say it was the thought that counts right. I guess you have to except that thoughtful weird, I am glad it wasn't a shoulder rub or a fake punch in the stomach. Well at Harry's we tried the new Rehorst Citrus and honey vodka (with seltzer and a splash of sprite - what they call a vodka press).
Wednesday was Porchclub. I got a very lovely cake.
Hung out with friends. Some drunker than they probably needed to be on a Wednesday night. I must say that it was very very amusing. I haven't been to Porchclub in a while so it was good to go again.
Thursday was the big day. I decided that I wanted to do something adult. I invited a bunch of people to Water Buffalo but before we get to the festivities. At work I was gifted another lovely cake.
Way to amusing. Work was fun. Another co-worker realized that the sprinkles on the cake matched my earrings. Then she got sprinkles from the cake and brought them to me. Somewhat bizarre but also funny.
Now to Water Buffalo. I really like the place. Oh we had this awesome appetizer, baked Italian cheese. Delicious!!! We should move on to the gift portion of the night.
Kathy got me Coach sandals (white).
Anna got me a new bag (shimmery brown).
Kim got me a Brewer's t-shirt.
Jenni got me two v-neck elbow length sleeve (red and white).
Beth and Jim got me a Snoopy sno cone maker.
It was a very fun time.
Friday was the Brewer's game. They won. Then Saturday we went to the lovely city of Kiel for the Zorn's 50th birthday party. I got a mosquito bite on my lip that was fun. Well I got about 10 other mosquito bites.
Wednesday was Porchclub. I got a very lovely cake.

Well I got nothing really
This post is mainly to force my friend Kim in to reading my blog she said she would read all posts where she was mentioned.
Kim the internet isn't a bad place.
Well yesterday was Jamie's birthday, we went to Hooligan's for drinks and dinner. I had one of each. Then I went home and watched some tv.
Oh while we were at Hooligan's we got yelled at by a woman asking for money. She was very pissed because we didn't give her. She also said that she wanted to have fun and drink, eat and other such things that we seem to be partaking in.
I understand that people get into situations. I understand that you aren't always mentally stable to take care of your business but don't get mad because other people can.
I know a little bit about struggle and I know that it can be hard to navigate at some times but there are people and places that will try to help you better your situation. The point of the story, don't yell at Kim and that guy that I can't recall his name.
Even with that I had a fun time.

I am annoyed right now
It totally something at work and I won't blog about it. Well I went to Kiel this weekend and got a little wastie. I don't know how it happened but it did. The parade was ok, nothing spectacular. Now I face another busy week.
Today I really need to go to the grocery store. I need lunch stuff for Great America on Wednesday. Then ingredients for stuffed shells for Italian night on Thursday. Tuesday is Harry's night. Friday is the first book club meeting where we will discuss The Kite Runner. Saturday I am double booked and I don't know what I will be doing Leah's having a going away party (she's off to teach English in South Korea) and Kim and Corey are having a housewarming party.
At some point I have to finish the book, which mean I am going to have to cut out some television. I hope the tivo is ready to work.
Wish me luck.

What to do
I am going to keep telling myself that i ma going to blog more until it actually happen.
So I got my remaining (2) wisdom teeth pulled Friday. I don't remembered what happened the last time I had an impacted wisdom tooth pulled because I slept through it. Yes with only local anesthesia. The weekend was something, I was in pain for most of it. I think the dentist tried to break my jaw. I still can't open my mouth fully. Which makes eating hard.
So I went out and bought SingStar 90s this weekend and sang a couple of songs. I know people are a fan of the 80s edition but I know this one is fun and I know a lot of the songs.
I think it is time for me to do a music moment once again on my blog. So that's what the next post will be about. Watch for it.
Oh Diddy (or whatever he is calling himself these days) has a new reality show starting today. Where people compete to be his assistant. I think I will watch just to see what his old assistants have to say.

Time
Did I get anything that I wanted to get done tonight done??
Well the big answer to that is no. I wanted to do laundry, didn't happen. I wanted to clean, didn't happen. I wanted to post on my blog. Ok that happened but just barely.
So today I went to see The Dark Knight. I must say that I loved it. I don't know what the pull is for me toward Batman. The Caped Crusader, right? There is something about vigilante justice that makes a good movie for me. The only good justice is justice you make for yourself. That statement I am sure will come back to haunt me I'm sure. Maybe when I am on trial. Anyway, I thought the Joker performance was great and I laughed maniacally at how truly off kilter the Joker can be. Well you do have to suspend belief. (Spiderman sucks - not the movie the character)
Going to see the movie has inspired me to put a new poll on my blog. I was told that it seemed a little crazy to go to a movie alone. Whatever, I enjoy my own company.
Well before I put that poll up and I venture off to bed, I have to make the statement that my eye hurts. I don't know if this is cause to worry but oh well.

Why I blog less
At first I thought it was because I was too busy. I now realized that I drink less wine and wine is the key to the success of every nonsensical blog.
Drink up.

My week in review
Well I was pretty busy at work. I taught Excel Basic 2. Now I don't know how the students took it but I was not on my A game. I didn't have as much time to prepare as I wished I would have. I also taught CMS (content contributor) to some people. I thought that went ok. I mean I have been using it now for quite some time and think I have got a good enough grasp on it.
Anyway I made some progress on some projects and even impressed myself in my ability to just figure out some thing if I just put a little effort in them.
Well Sunday I spent some time with the family. Over to my aunt Cindy's for dinner. Then came home and watched a lot of tv. Nothing very exciting. My great-aunt Winona was in town hanging with the fam after all the health scares.
Well Monday I came home and took a nap. No movie night since Pam and Michael are off to Iowa. I guess I can say to start a family and further their careers.
Tuesday was customary nachos and beer at Harry's. I am going to try to make a good effort to eat less when at Harry's. Cut out the mini burgers I think and just stick with half the nachos. We'll see how that goes.
On Wednesday, I went to Axel's with some co-workers and had an interesting time. Some people obnoxiously made their way into our group. This is where strangers touched me and I tried not to be to weird about it. If you know me at all I tensed up but I was not the focus of the strangers attention, thankfully. It was a weird night for sure.
Thursday night I saw a message on Twitter and decided I would walk over to Rascal's for meet Liz. That was fun. We talked with a guy named Aaron that told us about how smart he was. he had graduated high school at 16, received two degrees by the time he was 22 and now he was taking a year to have fun. What can I say I can get people to tell me their life stories without saying much at all. I think that means I should have gone in to the field of journalism. Who knows.
Well Friday was very uneventful for me. I just wanted to come home and take a nap. Which didn't happen. I sleepily talked on the phone with my sister ate dinner did internet stuff tried miserably to organize all my pictires then read The Kite Runner in bed.
Now its Saturday I am doing the internet stuff again. Blogging apparently.
I know I blatantly left oft punctuations during the post, maybe i will fix that later maybe not.

Becoming an Evil Scientist
I found this link on Neil Gaiman's Journal and I found it extremely funny. So I thought I'd share with the world.

Reading
I was doing my morning reading of not news and I came across the blog of Neil Gaiman. In the post I read he was responding to a bookseller who is not the biggest fan of him experimenting with putting one of his book s online for free. The bookseller had to survive and all.
I see both sides of the argument but I like the side better that says if you never had a taste of (let's say) cheese how will you ever know you like it.
Now I I must say that I would one day love to be an successful author of both fiction and non-fiction. When this happens I would love it if people bought my books but I do know I'll have to give a sample.
Which brings to why the saying "Why buy the cow when you get the milk for free is wrong".
Wouldn't you be pissed if you bought a cow without trying the milk (because the cow had pretty spots or whatever) and you find out that the milk is bad?
So getting back to why this post is titled "Reading". In Gaiman's post he sites the statistic that 1 in 4 adults read no books last year. It's kind of scary to read, even though I may fit in that category. I know I have started to read books but didn't finish one.
I would love to be a pleasure reader again. I don't have the time. Every year I set big reading goals for myself and never achieve them. I am now a part of a book club that a friend started. I have the book I am on like page 6 there are almost 400 pages wish me luck. Some have suggested I just watch the movie. I know that it is cheating.
I have a vague idea of what my point for this post was and it is...
If you want me to read your work and gain a fan. Give me a sample. If you are a good dealer, your words will be like heroin and I willwant need to read more. I will go to a local bookshop (once I find one I like) and buy the hell out of your books. I have been know to go back and buy an additional copy because I have ruin my first by reading it to much (or hard).

When did I get so busy
I have so many things that I need to do. I probably couldn't list them all if I tried. There are things that I know I just need to get them over and done with:
Putting my dresser together (It's been sitting in my hallway since I bought it at Ikea)
Fixing my "work" bag (It broke one morning outside of Sabin. I have been carrying my Vicky's Secret bag and the weirdos that I naturally attract has new reasons to talk to me - see my post from a few days ago)
Fixing my new tank top - the straps are too long.
I need to go to the store and buy cake mix for Anna's birthday cake.
I need to buy beer for the Brewers game on Friday.
Busy busy. I need to relax. That won't be happening soon.

Never wear or carry items with words
After running to catch the bus today, I sit down and a older bearded guy says to me...
I just wanted to let you know We are here.
I smile and nod. Damned Victoria's Secret tote.
Its time to fix my sunglassed faces bag.

Beth's Playlist
After talking with Beth about many things. We discovered that she needed a Tamara's playlist. So I will be throughout the day compiling a list of the music that I am listening to or just plain amuse me.
Duffy - Mercy
Estelle - American Boy
Lil Wayne - Lollipop
Maroon 5 feat Rihanna - If I Never See Your Face Again
Gavin Rossdale - Love Remains the Same
Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love
I'll probably think of more as soon aas I close this window.

My Contributions to the internet
Everyday it gets harder and harder to stay connected even though I am an internet worker. I don't have the time anymore, unless I am taking a sanity break like I am now.
Well I will continue to try and I do contribute some via twitter. Although never anything of substance because I am being watched there. That's a whole other rant that I will probably won't have the time for.
ted out.

Monday Night Movie Night
Well the end is near for movie night in its current state. I have one last pick before Pam and Michael move away. So I have been thinking of what exactly we should do with the blog. I think we can continue to use it in a way to keep each other up-to-date on what were watching and recommend movies to each other. Another thought is we use it to update each other on what spin-off movie nights are watching. I don't want to get rid of it because it chronicles over 2 years of a groups of people movie viewing habits. As well as memories that we've made in those years. I am actually IMing with Pam right now and she telling me about a Britney Spears look-alike and how the blog needs to be updated. Oh and celebrity babies. That's all of the point though what do we do?
Any ideas?

Oh Bryan
What can I tell you about Bryan?
he's 22
he was in the marine corps for 4 years
the love of his life is John (he carries John's senior picture in his wallet)
he has a half black (cousin/niece) named Alyssa (other half Italian)
he's from Illinois
he's pissed @ the Catholic church
he's a close talker
I can be sure of these facts because he was very close to me while repeating this information over and over. Well until John came to get him leaving after harassing a couple of salad-eaters.
What I can tell you about me? I'm a easy target. Drunk people love me. There could be something said about how approachable I am. Granted I brought this on by bumping into his chair. I said sorry and then he started talking. I am going to go with the fact that I am a people person and I look friendly.
Update:
Bryan also works at the Pfister.

Jello Shots
So I asked my sister for her recipe for very potent jello shots and she told me replace all water with alcohol.
I then asked her how did they gelatinize. Which I know isn't a word but whatever.
I have been doing research and I am thinking flavored vodka.
Any suggestions?

Teen Witch Top That Lyrics
I'm king, and they know it
When i snap my fingers everybody says show it
I'm hot
and your not
But if you wanna hang with me I'll give it one shot
Top that, top that
You can give all that you can, but you will never top that!
You can dream until you're blue but you can never top that
huh huh
I'm hot
and your not
But if you wanna hang with me I'll give it one shot
Top that, top that
You can do all that you can but you'll never top that, top that
Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
Such a waste of pretty face but hanging in your no one's face
I wish that you would take a look and really stop that
Top that, stop that
I don't really give a about tryin to top that
Top that, stop that
I wish you finally take a real look and really stop that
Whats this, stop that
What gives, stop that
I don't really give a about tryin to top that
top that, big deal
top that, unreal
you can try until youre blue
i will make a fool of you
TOP THAT
When i snap my fingers everybody says show it
I'm hot
and your not
But if you wanna hang with me I'll give it one shot
Top that, top that
You can give all that you can, but you will never top that!
You can dream until you're blue but you can never top that
huh huh
I'm hot
and your not
But if you wanna hang with me I'll give it one shot
Top that, top that
You can do all that you can but you'll never top that, top that
Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
Such a waste of pretty face but hanging in your no one's face
I wish that you would take a look and really stop that
Top that, stop that
I don't really give a about tryin to top that
Top that, stop that
I wish you finally take a real look and really stop that
Whats this, stop that
What gives, stop that
I don't really give a about tryin to top that
top that, big deal
top that, unreal
you can try until youre blue
i will make a fool of you

Heartburn
I have a raging case of heartburn. I will pay someone to bring me an antacid.
I guess I will have to go somewhere and buy some tums or something.

book review
I Was Told There'd Be Cake by Sloane Crosley
So this post is mainly for Michael's girlfriend, Calley.
I haven't gotten very far in the book yet but I am recommending so far. Here is a quote from the book that anyone in the age of original Oregon Trail could appreciate.
"Oregon Trail slowly moved toward a singular goal. It also had a distinct masturbatory quality. Here was something millions of preteens did, only you wouldn't find out until much later in life."
A little more about the book: It is funny in the conversational, tell me more kind of story that a friend tells way.
More to come...

Last Year
Well around this time last year my John Mayer obsession was in full swing. Like anything else that obsession has many factors that effect it. Think economics. Anyway. I think a good John Mayer-ish spell of blogging is about to begin. To my delight and I am sure (horror of others who discount music for no good reason at all) John Mayer will be back at Summerfest this year. Which means I will be at Summerfest again this year.

Heavy Thinking
Well I have been trying to keep up with the internet and its very hard for me at the moment. I was reading a famous person's blog today and I started to think about the sentiment that the famous person was trying to get across. Anyway some of the thoughts really hit close to home. If anyone has been around me lately I have been on the edge (of so much). When I have more time I will reveal aforementioned famous person and other thoughts of mine.

Hello World
What's up out there? I have a headache but I won't let that keep me down. It really does suck that its raining out though.
I can't think of anything clever to say or anything. So I won't.
I can't think of anything clever to say or anything. So I won't.
Well Well
First off, I don't give a shit.
I would say that I didn't know what I was thinking but on second thought I know exactly what I was thinking and that was very questionable. Many of you know I sent out a slew of text messages. None of which I got answers too but I will be ok, despite the fact that no one loves me but Robby and Kim. I must say I am not nearly as drunk as I wished I was but I will say man was tonight uncomfortable. For everyone just not me.
At BBC, it's Wednesday so it's Hamburger Hell and I have a yearning to go. Robby indulged me. As I was walking to meet Robby, I thought 'I was going to take the night back'. Well that slogan is taken for a much better cause than mine. I know I torture myself (a little) but this was a bit much for me tonight.
I wish that things didn't have to be as awkward as they are but there is nothing I can do about it. You know I am polite and really really need to go to bed. I will say hi to whoever will say hi to me. I learned it's not to many people. Well whatever. You know I am a nice girl, if nothing else polite. Ask a bus driver.
The night was filled with lovely saying that I shouldn't repeat online, but the sentiment was I'm a fun time who know one likes.
My response is "I don't give a shit."
I must say this while I am in a relatively good mood. I am not upset with anyone, I don't have the time. I would like to go back to having a drama-free lifestyle. More importantly I will no matter who I have to cut out. I sick of all the bullshit and if anyone can name a time that I did something to them out a maliciousness (and if we were or are friends) sorry. There is nothing else for me to give.
I'll end this post with this:
fuckedy fuck fuck fuck, suck that.

food blog
Man it had been so long since anyone posted on the food blog. I guess I haven't been cooking that much lately. Not to mention that my camera was broken. I got a new camera so I am a picture taken fool again. I made chocolate peanut butter chip cookies. Check out the blog and the cookies http://dinnerness.blogspot.com/

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.

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.

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.

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.
