The one where she speaks incoherantly and drools….

Have you ever had so much to say that if you sat down and put it to words your brain would explode and ooze out your ear, down your neck, and into your pants? No?? Hmm…that’s too bad. I was hoping someone would know what that was like!!

Because of said brain exploding, I will not go into any more detail other than I am super busy, super tired, and in many strange ways, super happy at work. My laundry, dishes, chores, and hobbies are backing up, falling over, and gathering dust but I am enjoying keeping busy and being productive.

If you are among the many casualties of my neglect (Hi Mom!! Hi Dad!! Hi Sis!! Hi Kids!! Hi Jon!! Hi Nat!! Hi my other friends who I can’t call because my brain exploded!!) then I offer my deepest apologies and some gift cards to Starbucks. They are in the mail as we speak! Let me know when you get them! (btw-I don’t have any stamps, so I’ll get to that soon, I promise!)

I leave you with this: type your name into google and the word “needs,” and blog the top ten hits that come up. According to google, this is what “Angie needs” :

  1. ANGIE needs an AGENT to become an ACTRESS Petition
  2. Angie needs some self-esteem and self-love so she can make her romantic decisions from a strong standpoint and not on neediness.
  3. Pink Angie needs food, badly
  4. nurse angie needs a nap
  5. Angie needs to see aerosmith
  6. Angie needs to take over the wheel of her psychological car.
  7. Angie needs…a night of blinding sex to get out of the coma that Bob left her in
  8. Angie needs to be intuitive
  9. Angie needs to stop hating on Jen
  10. And the very last thing that Angie Needs is:  Angie needs to put on 10 to 15 pounds stat!

Right on!! Brownies here I come!! Wooot!!

Starbucks anyone??

I discovered Kristen Chenoweth when my sister first told me about Wicked the Musical. I searched around for her on the web and I came across this song on  MySpace. I added it to  my page and then found the video. Taylor The Latte Boy has been an instant cult hit with me and my [...]

Let the fun begin!!

It’s the first day of school! Yahooooooie!!!
The kids were so excited. Lauren especially. She couldn’t sleep. She came out at 10:30 and complained she couldn’t sleep. I reassured her that I knew what she was going thru at least 12 times in my life, one for each first day of school I experienced. All the [...]

My husband rocks!! (he really is a geek)

He bought me a new wireless keyboard because my other one was fried and now I can type emails, talk on Yahoo and browse the Net! WhooHoo!!
 
I didn’t realize just how broken it really was until I got a new shiny keyboard that does all these cool things. I can press a button and programs [...]

Our house in Ingleside, TX is currently has a contact to sell. We were hoping it would be an easy transaction after the couple who is currently renting it decided they wanted to buy it one month after they moved in. Not so much!

After a house inspection, there lender is saying in order to fund the loan, we need to make some repairs. One of those repairs is tenting the house for termites for which the only bid requested was 3,000 dollars.

We don’t have 3K in our pocket to pay for repairs, so it will most likely come out of what little profit we were going to make. Both Jon and I are not very good at handling the stress of this new situation on top of me going to back to work and the normal everyday taking care of things, coupled with the desire to get out of debt and take care of our children’s needs without asking for help.

Let’s just say, I am taking a vacation from life today. Well, at least until 5pm when I need to go set up for a fair at our church.

When did life get so complicated? I have a ask myself when did I start feeling like I didn’t want to participate in my churches activities? Our families health has been horrible this summer. Two bought’s with pneumonia, a second Diverticulitis attack for me, Jon with his never ending sinus infection, and I stopped my anti-depressant because it was too hard to treat me for Diverticulosis while on it. We have missed a lot of church lately on Sunday’s but lately I have been in the building more than I can count. I think I am so focused on a job well done at the expense of my spiritual feeding. I do, do, do for others, but I’m not giving to my own spirit. How can I give to others when I am not filled? I don’t know the answer to that, and if it is going to church today, it’s not happening.

And also? My computer is acting strange. The keys aren’t doing what I want them to do. They beep, and close my windows as I am working or talking to someone on IM. I suspect someone messed up my keyboard and didn’t tell me or something is fried in the hard drive or mother board. It gets super hot if I leave programs running and then acts strange. That is stressful in itself because I live on my computer and its an extension of how I communicate with others. I’m ANGIE*STAR, I need to be able to tell my friends and family information that I steal from the Internet! And also? I hate when I misspell a word and my software editor puts that squiggly little line under the word even though I know I didn’t spell it wrong! Like internet. It needs to be capitalized in order to not have that line. Gimme a break. I mostly can’t stand it because I always want to be right, but the word Diverticulitis isn’t in it’s dictionary and that line is just glaring at me from the monitor screaming that I spelled it wrong! I didn’t…I swear. Anywhoo (that word isn’t in there either! Dang!) I’m going to go take my blood pressure medicine that I have forgotten to take for about a week and go un-puff myself.

Lumbar puncture with a twist of lime, please?

Yesterday was like any other day….. shoot, who am I kidding? This is how our day went:

Woke up late for Praise team practice, still groggy from sleeping pill.
Got there 25 min. late and ended up having someone else sing for me.
Worked in the school office for a bit.
Jon and Dan were home caring for sick-boy [...]

Will the sickness ever end?

This album contains 3 items.

Seems like Michael Jon is sick with whatever Brenna had. Hers turned into pneumonia so I can only hope his isn’t too complicated now. He has a fever, cough, and the ability to come flying into our bed at 2am in a single bound. Unlike Superman, he can’t bend steal with is hands, but he [...]

Yep, pretty much says it all…

Find your own pose!
I’m not sure if the “man” in the picture is wearing a lace edged pair of boxers or a skirt but I think they were going for “gender neutral”,  in any case… HUH???? I don’t think I have ever slept like that…ever! Way too hot to have a body all pinched on [...]
