Crud

Broken. Everything is broken and falling apart.

First, I bought a new TV in April (ok, my dad gave it to me as a Mother's Day/Birthday present). I have been VERY happy with the new TV. I have shrugged off flat sceen, fancy, new TVs for years, but I finally gave in because I knew it would make P-Dub happier to watch TV in my room...or anywhere in my house. I only got a 22". It was $250 for a Phillips, and it was just too good to be true. In fact, we asked the sales person why it was only $250 when the Best Buy name brand, Dynex, was more. He couldn't give us an answer. Actually, I think he tried to give us some line about because it was brand new, energy efficient, and the economy was bad. Whatever, we took it and ran. Turns out they had marked it with the wrong price. P-Dub went back the next day and it was actually $350. But you get what you pay for! The damn thing is broken! It keeps flickering and then it has a big green line across it. And of course I can multi task all damn day at work, but the minute I need to do something at home or be organized, this damn ADHD won't let me do anything! (Trust me, I'm not using it as a cop out...my organizing and cleaning and whatever else skills get worse and worse and I can now see all the triggers and instances). So, I haven't taken the TV back to Best Buy, yet.

Sunday...the stupid dryer breaks. I had a load of towels in the dryer and ALL my work clothes in the washing machine. I have been hanging clothes on every piece of furniture, shower rack and whatever else you think of to get everything dry.

And...the TV in the living is breaking. It keeps flickering too. But only when there's a lot of movement in the room. Like if the radio is on in my room.

What have I done about all of it? Nothing so far.

Gabby has been at her dad's for two weeks and I've missed her like crazy. I picked her up today and took her to my parent's because she is now spending two weeks with them in AZ and CO. She looks so much older than two weeks ago. She looks like a junior higher. It makes me want to ball my eyes out. AND...have more babies.

This past weekend P-Dub and I went with my Carolyn and Scott to a driving range. I hit a couple of balls but my lower back was killing me, so I sat around with Carolyn drinking beers and letting the boys hit the damn balls.

I never give myself enough time here anymore and I never blog enough. I'm always cramming things into one damn post. Time for bed.

I'm confused. I thought you were on meds for your ADHD?
Confused about what?

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...
WTF? God, I feel great. I am a typical cancer (please refer back to this ). "At times you will seem to have the greatest love for life, yet at others you can be nothing but a self-pitying mess. You can be pleasant and cheerful, or you can be egotistical and vain." Yep, that's me! So, now comes the part where I have a great love of life. And isn't it sad that it stems from feeling secure that someone likes me? One final down...3 more to go! I can't wait for this semester to be over. It has been really hard. Really it was last Spring semester that was really hard, and almost killed me...and that semester seems to have put me in burnout mode for this past semester. But, next semester is new, and will probably kill me with how busy I'll be since I go back to work full-time in the Spring...but as much as I complain...I like being busy, busy, busy! Off to see Aaron the Beast in a couple of hours. Didn't have time to shave my legs this morning. ...

What is up?

Whew! I made it to my parent's house for once. My computer is still down, but it is my fault for not bringing it over to my dad's to get it fixed. It's kind of nice though to not always be so worried about checking my email or what not. I've been pretty busy. I was working my usually seasonal job for the last three weeks. Halloween happened, of course (pictures coming), and I've been interviewing like crazy. I'm going to be looking into temp jobs this week. I got a call from one, and she was going to put me into this once company that I've put in like 12 applications for. So, it might be easier for me to just find a temp-to-hire job. At least then I'll be relatively done with this whole interview crap. I don't even get nervous anymore...I just hate it. I'd rather sit in a bath tub full of frogs. Ok, maybe not that, but something else just as painful... I seriously had a blog written up in my head every single day for the last few wee...
