Not Liking Kat at the moment

I am not liking Kat right now. I never liked Carlos so it stands to reason my Sunday did not start off well. Carlos was told by me (the drama queen) that the upstairs door MUST be closed. Just in case you were wondering why… the cats get upstairs and misbehave themselves some thing fierce. I lubs my kitties but I don’t trust them behaving themselves.
Friday I come home and I hear scratch scratch scratch at the door. Ms Lillie was locked up stairs. So I told Carlos Miss Lillie was locked upstairs. He said OK. I said not OK. The door needs to be closed. There is no box upstairs and they can get into the attic. Very unsafe for the kitties.
Fast forward to Sunday or has Mr. Monk would say picture go fast. Kat was in the den. Shocking but true. Ms Lillie spied her. Not as shocking. The chase was on. I heard the door open upstairs. A little tap by little paws and the cats were upstairs.
I go upstairs and I shoo Ms. Lillie away easy peasy. I find Kat sitting on my dresser in Carlos’s room. I pick her up, I am chatting with her. Petting her. Not fussing at her. I am fuming at Carlos but not at Kat. Kat is a cat after all.
We get to the door and she went ballistic. I have claw marks and scratches up and down my right arm. I was dripping blood.
I was so upset with Carlos, with Kat and with Kathryn.

Courage

Courage does not always roar. Sometimes it is the quiet voice at the end of the day which says, 'I will try again tomorrow.'

Went to the fair

Had fun at the fair. Saw the art, the sand sculpture, the craft building and the food I ate was soo yummy but so bad for you. I had fried mushrooms, them yummy cookies and cinnamon/sugar donuts. The players that were there were Kathryn, Me and Mum.

Water Color Doodle

I doodled a water color of Raggedy Ann while watching Dancing with the Stars yesterday. Wait you so observantly noticed. Dancing with the Stars is not on Thursday. Oh but the Magic of DVR say it is. With instant replays and the go forward button like Mr. Monk says.

My mother asked me why I was doing what I was doing. I told her it was the same reason she plays the slots on pogo. Cause I want to.

Favorite picture to draw

This is probably my favorite picture to draw. I draw it a lot. It came from cleo christmas wrapping paper of all things. The bow was red though. I made it light blue and gave it a bit of sparkle with glitter. This card was for a dot challenge in a card making group I belong to on yahoo.

Finished another book

I finished the Lost Symbol. I am so glad I didnt buy the book. Would of been a waste of money. Ink Death was much better LOL. The author had a one hit wonder with the DaVinci Code

Another Doodle at work

doodle a gary

Will the real gary please stand up please?

Finished the book

Yeah I finished the book!

The character was tossed in the dungeon again but a happy ending came out of it just the same.

Now I am reading the Lost Symbol by Dan brown. So far the Davinci code was much better.

The funny that deserves its own post.

I briefly mentioned the guy on the express way going 45. Let me set it up for you.

26 splits, you can either stay on 26 or you can get on 77. That is the beginning of 77. So here we were at the beginning of 77 there are two lanes from east 26 and one lane for west 2. We were on east ran into west and now there are three lanes. So about a few miles on 77 I caught up to this guy who was going 45 in the middle lane. He would not move. So I did something I never did before. I flashed my lights. He still would not move. Finally I got tired of going soooo slow and went around him. He took his finger and gave me the shame shame shame on me sign.

Now that is funny!

I do not like rude People

I try not to be an imposition on others. Well maybe except my mum. It is her fault why I am on this planet anyway. She owes me. She had to marry the most anti social being on the planet and I inherited his wonderful skills.

Anyway back to the rude people story.

I usually follow the rules and am considerate of others. I expect the same in return from others. Take a minute and answer this… Do I ask to much? You may leave a comment. Please leave a comment.

For example, It just burns my biscuit when a vehicle will not pull all the way up to the light in a turning lane. They know if they keep back so far that the sensors would falsely sense that there is a lot of traffic and they would get a green arrow to turn.

In the mean time the on coming cars are still sitting at the red light waiting waiting waiting waiting for their green light while this one lone car who beat the system gets the luxury of turning.

Then there is the guy who was going 45 miles on the express way. Wait no… that wasn’t annoying that was funny and deserves its own post.

Then there was that lady. It was more of a scare the crap out of me then rude. She was driving down 26 and remembers at the last minute she wants to get off on 378. Traffic was so heavy that she could not get over. So she stops. YES SHE STOPS ON THE EXPRESS WAY. With me behind her, directly behind her. So I was stopped on the express way and cars are zooming by us and the ones who are directly behind us are able to get into the other lanes. Guess who would of got slammed first if the cars were not able to go around us or stop. ME ME ME ME ME ME. Did I mention Me. I put my hand on the horn and did not let up for a good minute. Yes that is how long we sat on the express way at a stop while cars were going around us. It felt like a life time. You know the old life flashes before you thing. Kathryn was yelling at me to stop. She did not get it. YOU DO NOT STOP ON THE EXPRESS WAY. You just don’t do it. NEVER EVER EVER in a million years. I didn’t let up until finally the lady gave up and drove on.

The above stories were pre-ambles to the meat and potatoes.

Now to the meatloaf and smashed potatoes of the story. Don’t you just love Meat Loaf. The singer not the food (yuck)

I was at chick fil a. I see all of you snickering. Anyway you enter, you drive around you get in line for the drive thru.

This lady decided to enter thru the exit and did a V not a U but a long mile to get into the drive thru… while at the same time watching me drive around the proper way to get to the drive thru. Yes she saw me and made the decision to be rude and cut in front of me. So like a fool I am I honk my horn. After all it was rude.

She gets out and she starts yelling at me and cussing at me and using all kind of racial slurs. Yes we were of different race ethnicities. Let’s put it this way, she had an Obama bumper sticker on her car. I would never put any bumper sticker on my car. So I irrational blamed Obama for her racist attitude. (Obama is underlined as being spelled wrong in word… this program is so out of date LOL… heck LOL is not underlined though).

I made one mistake I honked.

While she on the other hand went thru the exit, sped up did a V turn backed up went forward backed up went forward to get in line (did I mention I was the only one in the line)

Then she gets out and threatens me

I am sure she could of womped me. No matter how much I love Chick fil a… is not worth getting womped over.
Then she F this and B this and you white B on and on and on.
My clever come back… Unintelligent racist. I know, a real zinger there!
People at chick fil a looked at me like I was nuts. Which I am but she started the whole thing. I shouldn’t of honked though. I was very very very very very wrong of me

DOODLE AT WORK

TAKE IT ONE STEP FURTHER

The Lost Symbol

My mum was given the book The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown to read. She never will. She let me borrow it, but I still gotta finish that other book. Oh the pressure is on! I hope it is as good as the davinci code

LET THEM EAT CAKE

DOODLE A DREAM

I couldnt sleep so I doodled a dream.

Ink Death

I am reading the third book of Inkheart trilogy, InkDeath It is taking me for ever to get thru it.


I think the problem is the first book was awesome. The second book was ok. The third book is becoming tiresome. It is all drama drama drama drama. A person can only read that the hero has been captured so many times.

Well they are not captured yet in the third book but it is only a matter of time. The bluejay was almost caught once and I almost tossed the book across the room LOL.

I did that once to a John Grisham book. I really shouldnt of because it was a library book.

For shame on me.

Fame

I went to see Fame today and it would of been better if I didnt have a headache. It would of even have been better if they didnt squeaze four years into on movie.

The goody that was returned

I mentioned I got a goody. A hair straightner. Got it from Walmart.

The scoop is... they had a few on a rack and they looked pretty nice for 25.00. So I picked one up and took it to the self check out. It rang up for 46.00. I didnt have the extra 21.00 so I was going to put it back. Then I told myself no wait I will go thru a check out with a person and insist it should be 25.00. So I did and when it rang up for 46.00 I said woe now it shows on the rack for 25.00. They called the CSM (aka Customer service manager (aka also known as I think LOL) (aka laughing outloud))) They sold it to me for 25.00.

So fast forward to last Saturday. We were in desperate need of people food. I still had the straightener in the box. I dusted it off and took it to Lexington walmart and got 51.00 after tax 55.00.

Sad I dont have a straightner though. Kathryn should get me a new one since she is the one that broke my old one.

Thats the scoop. I doubled my profit. On a return. I have actually done better on returns before. I bought a $1.00 clearance item and returned it to another walmart and it was $8.00.

The football frenzy

The big game is going on today. All the USC (South Carolina version) games are the big games. I only bring it up because I work down the street from the football stadium. So when game day is on a work day, the orange cones come out, the police start trying to make some kind of order out of the mess, the cars with the goofy flags go by, traffic picks up … thank goodness it is in the opposite direction of which I will travel home and the guys stand out with their goofy flags to flag fans into their parking lot. $10.00 Parking the card board signs advertise up and down the street.

Now are place is a good solid mile from the stadium but parking is at a premium and they start all the way down and beyond where we are located. Last game day that was on a weekday the fans had to fight over the tall weeds for a long hike to the stadium.

Maybe you are wondering why I am bothering with all this. I do have an amusing twist to the storey

The branch manager who actually is a fan of the rival team Clemson doesn’t usually partake in watching an USC game unless they are playing against each other. So the case must have been. Archie thought he would be mighty clever and park at work and walk… saving him the $10 bucks parking fee. When he got to the branch to his bemusement somebody was charging $10.00 bucks to park on the Spatco’s grounds. He politely declined. He allowed them to continue to charge for parking. Claiming he wanted his car to be in the same condition that he left it. I guess he was recalling memories when Karen #1 had her car stolen from the property in broad daylight on a work day.



A bunch of horns were honking and I peeped out the window and 6 or 7 gals in their short skirts were walking to the stadium. I got the guys in service and says you might enjoy this.. bunch of gals getting honked out in minis… the guys took off running outside to peep. What pervs LOL.



I was forced to watch the end of the game. Good news for all you USC fans (SC version) The gamecocks won. Whippee. That is all they are going to talk about for a week until the next game. Whippee.



Next day a guy asked me who won. Every other day I would have been to answer I DUNNO. But I did know. Worse yet, when he asked for what the score was...

I KNEW THAT TOOOOO!

a funny about married life

Let me first say I work at a place that services gas stations and they do not have a real strict dress policy. On with the funny... There is this guy at work who told us the woes of married life. He had two pair of shorts that were missing buttons. He said, he asked his wife several times to sew a button on his shorts. She never got around to it. So he being a man picked up his shorts and was going to take them to have the button sewn on. His wife asked why he had the shorts in his hand as he was walking out the door on his way to work. He told his wife he was going to take them and have buttons sewn on. His wife chewed his butt out (because he was being a smart aleck) and told him to leave the shorts; she will sew the button on. He got home that night and the shorts were lying on the bed with the new buttons sewn on. The dude was wearing one of the shorts (camouflage) today. He lifted his shirt and showed us his brand spanking new button. It was a pink flower button. PRICELESS!
