Sin City

Josh took Gabby and I out to dinner tonight to J.C's restaurant. I was afraid Josh was absolutley hating it because of all the "entertaining" that goes on there. And, the whole thing is kind of weird anyways. Every waiter comes by our table and sits down and chats it up for a bit, all the while trying to stay in character, and it's just weird to me that I get drunk with these people all the time.

Anyhoo . . . Josh's consulation is that I went to Best Buy with him. He was super nice and bought me the Sin City DVD, which when we checked out came with a comic book. When I dropped Josh off, Gabby asked if she could have the comic, Josh looked at me, and I said it was fine . . . BUT WAIT . . . then it hit me, why am I just handing this comic book over to my 7-year old daughter, so I said she could have it with the stipulation that I had to check it out first, and it's a damn good thing I did! The whole thing may be in black and white, and the characters aren't clear cut drawn, but it's easy enough for Gabby to figure out that there's a hooker lying in bed with a big fat naked man hovering above her . . . Josh said he already had the same comic, that's why he gave it to Gabby . . . SHEESH!!! People without kids, who have friends with kids, should have to take classes or something on how to be more kid friendly!

Been there. Everytime we leave from a family function, Matthew talks about how Uncle Robert needs to be grounded for his mouth. He lets the F bomb and everything else fly constantly.

Wow. I would never have thought, you know? I'm glad you did.

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...

DIY Faux Brick Wall with German Schmear

Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a  WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together.  I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this.  In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot.   We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear.  It's a perfectly, imperfect technique.  I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own.  I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will.  Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige .  Shelves and floor...
"He's Just Not THAT Into You" Sheesz...did someone really need to write this book? Why couldn't women just be left alone in their lonesome deceiving torture upon themselves. No, really...seriously...we like not knowing the truth and playing games with our own minds. What will we have to talk about with our friends if we can't say, "What do you think he meant by this?" If everytime you have to question a man's motives or make excuses for him, and the answer to everything is simply, "He's just not all that into you"...there will be no glimmer of hope...none whatsoever...a girl won't even be able to fool herself into thinking that she can ever possibly find someone. I know I know I know...the truth hurts, and the truth also sets you free...but you'll have to be very secure in yourself and not prone to beating yourself up in order for the truth to really set you free...otherwise the truth only makes it harder to move on. So, thi...
