Why is it when parents bring their children to a restaurant they spend more time yelling at them than eating? Kids are kids - they are going to make noise. Do the parents realize most of they time they are the ones that are being obnoxiously loud, telling their children to sit down, shut up, behave. Don and I went out to dinner and the only thing I heard was some bitch counting to 3 loudly time and again. Just made the kids cry and get louder. What school did she go to that she couldn't get past that? 4...4 comes after 3!!!!!!
Furthermore - it's not the first time those kids have gone somewhere and acted like monkeys, parents. You knew what you were in for when you decided you didn't want to cook. You knew your children can't behave at home - why would you think it would be any different where they have a new audience?
I am not talking about babies who can't help but cry when they find themselves in a new place that might be potentially scary or weird smelling to them - I cry too when that happens.
If people don't like children in restaurants they should leave and find somewhere else to eat. We weren't at the Four Seasons for God's sake. It was the Chinese Buffet - hell, I like to run down the aisles there too. I am far too loud most of the time as well - Don doesn't sit there and sshhh me - sometimes, anyway.
I think I am the most boring person I know...

AH-HAH
OMG I finally had my Oprah "AH-HAH Moment"! Tucker Max has a lisp - that's why he's mean to people...he picks first so he won't get picked on. I am sure he would disagree and call me a fat whore, but I know the truth. Now, I can get on with my day.

294 Channels to watch and ...NOTHING!
With 294 Channels to watch (and scores to just listen to) I could find nothing of interest last night to watch. I finally settled on the cheesy Jewel Spectacular on some no name Shopping Network and was intrigued to see that you could "allegedly" buy a 2.7 carat diamond of quality for the low-low price of $595.00, Princess cut and ready to be mounted. That's a bargain, people. I am going to watch tonight and see what they have. If they have an "automobile of quality that simple assembly with an allen wrench" for under $2000.00 I AM GOING FOR IT!
Incidentally - I slathered my feet with Vick's for the second night and NOTHING! I figured if I had the Vick's out, I would cake my ears with it too since that's what hurt the most - Worked like a charm - my sinus congestion is GONE and I am blowin' green snot like it's goin' out of style.
Have a great Memorial Day!!

Dating sucks dude!
Went on a date with Don tonight - didn't go so hot. I think we both might need to see other people if we want to continue dating:-) He doesn't like my driving - apparently I don't watch the road enough. He also thinks my constant comments and chatter are irritating at times. Whatever ~ We are going to settle for being the couple who thinks it's cool to NOT keep things fresh. We did agree on the Chinese Buffet though and tied our feed bags on. Isn't there a law that crab rangoons are supposed to be made in wantons? The ones they had were freaky and not so good. Anyhoo - I am going to go to bed and hope to wake up NOT sick tomorrow.

One more thing...
Still haven't been on teh treadmill, but I make myself do 25 squats before I sit in the computer chair! That's a good step, or so I figure.
I had a dream a while back that I can't get out of my head, just because it was so obscure...
I was hired to be Obama's nanny - they still had Malia, but they had a son instead of another daughter. What I was basically hired to do was teach them how to do laundry, which neither of them were particularly interested in. Malia ran away and being a great nanny I let her go and didn't really look for her or pursue any further laundry training. The son did soso to my knowledge, but apparently I did a good enough job to be promoted to...(keep in mind this is a dream and I can make up names for anything in them) "The Democratic Chairman of the Investigation into why Paperclips rust". My committee partner was Bob Dole and we spent a lot of time in the pasture at my mother's house floating paperclips in puddles. I would use a stick to float them around and poke at them and he would use his pen. I, being exceptionally brilliant and the Chairman, came up with the solution and exclaimed to the world..."If a paperclip doesn't get wet, it won't rust. They are rusting because they are getting wet. WE NEED TO KEEP THE PAPERCLIPS DRY!!!" Accolades from countries across the world came flying in and then I woke up and went to work:-)

My New Hobby
It has been suggested that blogging would be a great hobby for me since I am not smoking anymore (I got the hint, B.). Perfect! It also might be good since I tend to say things out loud that maybe I shouldn't sometimes.
Why shouldn't fillies run against colts? There is no real difference except their gender. I say that's like suggesting that Fords shouldn't race with Dodges in NASCAR - That women shouldn't be allowed into high stakes poker games with men. It's a ridiculous notion in my opinion.
In stadium jumping mares, stallions and geldings all compete on the same course.
Rachel Alexandra is an insane example of a racehorse male or female and some of the trainers were scared that she was going to beat them - and they were right. Don't use the excuse that she could break down. She is a TANK. I think it's a shame she didn't run in the derby because we really could have seen a Triple Crown winner this year if she had.
I wish I had seen the race...Stupid dumb DishTV - as they went to the post the channel went and when they were posting the payouts the channel came back! DOH!!!!
What else is new, you ask? Still not smoking (as a rule). I went to a wedding last weekend and it was all over after the 4th glass of wine:-) I only had 5 cigarettes the entire evening, but I count that as falling off the wagon for the 1st real time since I QUIT. I was quite entertaining if only to myself. After switching to beer, doing a shot of Jack (which doesn't agree with me) and then going back to wine I was done.
Poor Don. If he went to the wedding with me, he wouldn't have been made to pick my drunk ass up, take me to Stewart's and buy me a pack of cigarettes and a six pack and then put up with me in the car. When I arrived home I decided that I didn't need a cigarette or a beer and perhaps it was just fine if I went to bed instead. Don drank the beer and his friend smoked my cigarettes. I am back on the wagon and doing fine - picking up my 3rd refill of Chantix today as a matter of fact.
Still having the wacky dreams and loving them - they are FUNNY! I wake up every night around 11:30 and can't get back to sleep until 2:30'ish, but Will & Grace reruns are abundant at that time of the night and there are a BUNCH I haven't seen. I don't want to take Lunesta because I am afraid I won't remember my dreams:-)
I am going to attempt to be more diligent and definitely more interesting about blogging - have a great day!

Leave Miss California alone
I was watching the Today show yesterday and realized a myriad of things, two of the most important are that 1.) Matt Lauer is just all that and 2.) Miss California has a right to express her opinion wherever and whenever she wants and everyone should just shut the hell up about it. Do I agree with her...NO, but she has a right to her opinion and the right to express it. I feel rather bad for her, but after watching her yesterday she's absolutely correct.
Why is everyone vilifying her for EXPRESSING her opinion. She herself agrees that people have differing views, but that doesn't seem to be the point. And, the judge (who should be ashamed of himself for portraying homosexuals in such a stereo-typical manner both on his web cam site and on the pageant) should shut the hell up. The Miss USA contest is a pageant scholarship and while we can all snicker at that, she is pursuing higher education so how can he classify her as a "stupid bitch"? There is also ridicule that she is leaving her platform of Special Olympics support and now jumping on the no same-sex marriage band wagon, but she is only getting this attention for the question the judge posed to her and that's where the attention is going - had he asked about mentally retarded people, I am sure the focus would be there.
P.S. I have been smoke free for 33 days:-) And, seriously...i dusted off the treadmill so it's ready to get back in action on Monday:-)
