I want to get a second job so I can make more money and pay my bills on time.
I want to lose about 50 lbs.
I want to not get laid off.
I want Fergie to stop singing about her va-jay jay, in fact she can stop singing full stop.
I want my mom to not kill my dad.
I want to have a good year for a change, its been about 6 years since I've had a good year.
I want my meds to work.
I want someone to give me their dick in a box.
I want it to snow at some point this winter.
I want to make my apartment look nice so I can actually invite people over.
I want the people who made me feel like shit to feel like shit too because I don't think that is happening and they deserve to feel like shit.
I want the Yankees to make it into the playoffs and to at least make it out of the first round.
I want everyone to stop booing A Rod and on that note I want him to shut all the haters up.
I want to get a second and maybe even a third tattoo.
I want 30 Rock to be renewed for a second season.
EVERYONE MUST WATCH 30 ROCK. Even if you have to record it and watch it later or if you have to go online to watch it. Do it. You will not be sorry. It is the funniest show on television.
I want my skin to stop itching.
HAHAHAHAHAHA the news just said copyright 2006. Um its 2007 idiots.

Happy Belated New Year to my peeps.

Happy Boxing Day!
So my brother, bless his heart, bought me the first season of 90210 on DVD.
God I loved this show in high school.
The only thing that is bugging me is how the music is all different because of licensing and stuff.
I mean I haven't seen some of these episodes in at least 14 years and I even know the music is wrong.
I am watching "Slumber Party". I love this episode.
The Brandon and Steve plot is stupid though.
Yesterday was nice. We stayed at the nursing home until 3:15. We watched "March of the Wooden Soldiers" with Laurel and Hardy. My Grandma was cracking up. Especially when my brother decided to do an impression of a wooden soldier.
Heh.
I have a blister the size of Rhode Island on my right foot. I have no idea what I am wearing on my feet tomorrow because even with a bandage it hurts like a mofo to walk. Bleh.
My vacation is over. I have to go back to work tomorrow.
Aw Gerald Ford died.
Okay it's technically December 27th now. I need to go to sleep and I am wide awake. How wonderful.

I can't believe I am happy about this but Chrispy is not coming home this December. I mean don't get me wrong, I want to see him but I'm a fatass and don't want to have to venture out anywhere and see people.
My w,e, and 3 keys are sticking....hmmmmm. It's fucking annoying.

More proof that the baseball writers are fucking idiots. Justin Morneau wins the American League MVP when he wasn't even the most valuable player on his own goddamn team. Good job you fucking morons. That was Derek Jeter's award you fucking cocksuckers. And I hope the douche cocks who gave Jeter fourth and sixth place votes contract an STD that makes their dicks fall off.
Wow this has pissed me off more than I thought it would.

I am having a Queer a thon. Ahhhhh. So nice.
It's hard to believe that this was close to 6 years ago. Yikes.
Oh so I was told earlier in the week that I had 8 vacation days left. As if you needed further proof of my having no life. Anywho, at first I thought I wasn't going to be able to take any days because everyone took them before I could BUT because my coworker gave her two weeks notice her December days opened. Guess who now has the entire week before Christmas off. Aw hell yeah. Plus Christmas and the day after Christmas. PSYCHE. SEVEN DAYS OFF! WOOOOOOOOOO!
I am carrying three over to next year.
I'm so excited.
The last time I had this much time off and didn't go anywhere was when I had my surgery 5 and ½ years ago. I don't know what I'm going to do with myself. Maybe I'll paint my bedroom. I signed a two year lease which will end in Feb 2009. Wow.
I'll be...Um...Wait. 34.
Holy shit I was totally adding years on and thought it was 36. Now that's frightening.
I can go see Grandma that Wednesday that I'm off. Maybe I'll do a Stacey day. And oooo I can Christmas shop before Christmas Eve for a change!
God Gale Harold's skin is flawless. Jesus.
Oh yeah the Mets need to be moved from New York City. Have them play in Jersey or something. Mr. Met, the stupid theme song, those fucking towels the fans waved in the playoffs and now their new Stadium is going to be named Citifield? Bleh.
The New Yankee Stadium better stay named Yankee Stadium.
My mom just called me...for no reason. I'm usually the one that calls her so when I saw the number on my caller Id I assumed something was wrong. Heh.
She's watching Dateline: To Catch a Predator. She loves those shows.
Okay it's nearly two hours later.
I'm up to my favorite QAF episode of all time. Episode 118.
And now one of my favorite scenes is coming up....Hee.
Brian at the baths, catching Doctor David getting a handjob.
"What's up doc?"
I'm horny, horny horny horny.
No not me. That's the song from the scene. Well, okay watching 8 episodes of QAF isn't helping me much. Heh.
I still can't believe my mom called me.
It's supposed to be crappy tomorrow.
Ha this is when Hal Sparks's asscheeks going boiiiiiing when Doctor David yanks his character's pants down.
So I made a decision today. I am really going to start working out again. I am sick of being heavy. It's grossing me out. I caught a glimpse of my ass as I was passing by a store window and actually could not believe it was mine. You can serve dinner on my ass.
Yeah so I figure some days I can go to the gym early, since I've been getting up early for work lately or I can go after work since I have nothing to get home for. All of the shows I actually watch are 9 or 10pm shows.
I think I'm going to try one of those fat burners also to see if that speeds up my weight loss. I want to be skinny soon damn it.
I need to lose 30 but want to lose 40.
We'll see.
I want to be 40 lbs lighter by next summer.
This time I am really going to do it. Being out of shape is affecting every other aspect of my life and its time for that to change. I am going to be thin again goddamn it.
By the time I'm 33 I'm going to look the best I've ever looked.
Wow that really hurt.

So we (my mom, Aunt Kathleen and I) went to the nursing home to see Grandma. She was a tad out of it today but she did say a few gems that made us laugh. The best one being, after my mom offered my Aunt Kathleen the rest of Grandma's ham sandwich my Grandma says, 'Like she'd ever say no?' BWAH.
She's right. We used to sit in awe of how much my Aunt would pile on her plate at Thanksgiving and Christmas.
My mom was talking about having my Grandma's wedding gift list. From 1930. Hello! And there was a gift of $79 from Lane Bryant. My Grandma worked for Lane Bryant before she was married and they gave her paid vacation and the $79 which in 1930 was a lot of money. So I asked my Grandma what she did. She worked in the mail order department. She'd go and get the dresses that the women ordered and she'd get them ready to be shipped out. She was laughing recalling how it was dangerous where she worked. She commuted from Brooklyn into Manhattan to work in the Hell's Kitchen area. She said that she just missed getting hit by thrown bottles.
At one point we were talking and we thought she was nodding off and she said something in response to what my mom said and my mom said, "See? She hears everything." Then my Grandma said, "Daddy (my Grandpa) always said I had cat ears."
Hee.
She's so cute.
I was at my parents house last night and because my Aunt is staying with them I had to sleep on the floor in my mom's room. Ugh. I was in agony when I woke up.
ANDY GIBB!!! WEEEEEEEE! I love the 70s channel.
I hadn't been home in a really long time. I think I avoided going home the whole month of October. Actually...I think the last time I was there was my birthday. WOW. No wonder my family was worried about me.
The last time I had waited that long between visits was probably when I was away at school.
I'll be up there for Thanksgiving. That should be thrilling. And hectic.
Oh can I just say that Mo is like the best cat ever. No offense to Jack and Henry but Mo is perfection. I love that cat and I am going to steal him next time I am there.
Oh and Tiny is still a spaz. But he is adorable. He's a grey tabby and he looks like he's wearing white eyeliner. It's so pretty.
I'm am idiot. I thought I had no money in my account and panicking and I grossly miscalculated. I have over $300. Um duh. Now I can pay a bill that I was stressing out about. Woo.
So VH1 had its Top 100 songs of the 80s countdown. 'Hungry Like the Wolf' was #3. Aw hell yeah. It's kinda of amusing seeing that 'Hungry Like The Wolf' isn't even the 3rd best song on the Rio album.
My mom wants to see "Borat".
I told her we'll go in a few weeks when everything has died down.
Am I the only one who wants to see Sadaam Hussein's death by hanging?
Does that make me a bad person?
You are my you are my you are my lovely one.
Oh dear God. "Foolish Beat" by Debbie Gibson is on the 80s channel. Hee. Seriously how much did Debbie Gibson rule in 1988?
Heh.
