I Just Had To Show You...

I twittered about how huge my seedless grapes were and I decided I just had to show you. They are crazy. Look at it next to my chapstick! Awesome. These pics don't do the grapes justice, but lets just say they are two biters! It is the simple things that make me happy :)

I know - a random post, but these blow my mind....and I don't want to work.

Observation.

I know I am not one too judge, I myself am a bit OCD (mainly when it comes to numbers, patterns, and routines) but I have to say this, my neighbor is a bit anal-retentive!

Ever since we moved in she has done these weird things, but when I was unemployed for 4 months I began to observe more closely some of her habits. Sorry, but try being alone until 8 at night everyday and you will pay attention to anything!

So she lives alone and is obsessed with cleaning! She vacuums twice a week - Saturday morning and Wednesdays (I am lucky to vacuum twice a month), while I was unemployed she had a cleaner come over every other week to power clean her deck (which we still have never seen her use), and her strangest “Obsession” would be sweeping with her broom her garage and driveway.

Now folks, it isn’t like we have seen this once or twice…it is every week (weather permitting). Every week (once, twice, three or more times) she takes her broom and sweeps up the garage and driveway of her house. I mean, I have seen the inside of her garage when I get the mail and it looks cleaner than my house! You could probably sit on that cold cement garage floor and get nothing on you!!!

I know we all have strange habits, but I would think you would put your time and energy into something with a bit more reward. You know, cleaning something that won’t get dirty 5 seconds later b/c it is outside where there is a ton more DIRT! Come on, dirt free cement on your driveway….well that just doesn’t make sense to me?!?!

Like I said, who am I too judge…but I am allowed to think this is weird!

Do your neighbors do weird things?

Why?

Why do some people say they want to lose or have lost "LB's" instead of just saying the word pounds? It is one thing to use "lb" when writing, but not when talking.

I have heard this before and a guy at T.'s office party last weekend said it. It annoyed me....just say pounds - not "LB's"!!!

Is it a guy thing? I don't know why it bothers me so...it just does.

(Sorry if you say that, it is just one of those things I don't get.)

Know who your Baby’s Daddy Is for $29.99!

I read a story online that Rite Aid has begun to sell a Paternity test kit at their stores in a couple select states for only $29.99.

All I have to say is, really?!?!?!

What the?!?!?!!?

Please take a moment to review the item above.

Yes, that is a large knife.

And yes, the top of the knife is broke off.

How you ask? NO IDEA! (maybe my mighty strength)

I went to use this knife and the top inch of the knife just fell off!! Yes, while chopping an onion the top of the knife just broke. Now this is a good knife and one of my favorites!! Even when T. saw it he was amazed at how clean a break it was.

WEIRD! (I didn't realize how strong I was!)

Really?!?!?!?!

Totally gross......

"Police find 1,500 girls’ shoes and one big fetish

WAUKESHA, Wis. - Police seized more than 1,500 pairs of girls’ shoes from the home and storage unit of a man arrested for breaking into a high school, police said Tuesday.

“He liked to smell them,” said Lt. William H. Graham.

Police said the recovered shoes may be related to the burglaries of three Waukesha public high schools and a middle school over the past two years.

The 27-year-old Kenosha man, who was not identified because had yet to be formally charged, worked for a cable company and collected keys to the schools as he responded to calls, Graham said. The same man was convicted in 2005 for stealing shoes from Kenosha Tremper High School.

Police arrested him after a security video showed him entering North High School on May 20 and leaving with some items, authorities said.

Officers searched the man’s home and a rented storage unit on Thursday, recovering the shoes along with school yearbooks, keys, a bolt cutter and other items.

The man was expected to be charged in Waukesha County Circuit Court, Capt. Mike Babe said."

This is 100% gross!!! I don't even know what else to say.

We Spent your Salary on this Ad.

P.S. If you know of anyone/ anyplace who is hiring and paying an event person, please let me know!

A Time Phenomenon!

This morning I experienced what I like to call a time phenomenon. It is where for a strange reason the time in my day alters for unknown reasons. I am sure we have all experienced this before like when we are at work and you think 2 hours goes by and it is only 20 minutes or vice versa. Or you wake up in the morning early, follow your same morning routine and are still rushing around because you are running late. Or (like me this morning) you wake up late, dilly dally around the house taking your time, make stops on your way to work, and still get to work 15 minutes early!!!!

Here is my example: (Please note: At NO point was I rushing, infact I was like eeyore just taking my time and not really caring about getting anywhere fast!)

- 6:45 a.m. wake up (normally I wake up at 6:30 or 6:15 if I need to shower)
No need to take a shower, as I normally shower in the evening (just wanted to throw that out there!)
- 6:50 a.m. look at my self in the mirror for 5 minutes (actually I think I fell back a sleep standing up b/c I really don’t know what I did for that time)
- 6:55 a.m. Contacts, brush teeth, spray some hair spray in my hair (it looked fine how it was), deodorant, perfume, ect..
-7:02 a.m. Talk & pet the cats in the hall
-7:05 a.m. Get dressed
-7:08 a.m. Go downstairs and pack lunch
-7:12 a.m. Realize I am WAY ahead of schedule and play with the cats some more
-7:16 a.m. Finally decide to leave and kill time by getting coffee
-7:20 a.m. No line at Starbucks…get coffee right away
-7:24 a.m. On the road to work
-7:40 a.m. Realize I am REALLY earlier for work so I get a bagel (no line again)
-7:45 a.m. Walk into work an entire 15 minutes earlier!!!
-7:45-8 a.m. Sit at my desk pondering what just happened

Now, as I said before…this is really a strange phenomenon to me. I usually get up an entire 15 minutes earlier and rush around to leave by 7:35 a.m., don’t make any stops, and typically arrive at work either right on time or 5 minutes late (if I need coffee)!!!! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!?!?!?! I hope the rest of the day doesn't go this slow!
