Today is not Friday Akkk!

First of all Bo Bice did not win American Idol and that makes me sad, I really thought he would make it. I think it is almost better because now he can sing his own stuff and I would buy it if he did so ... he won in my books.

Next I thought it was Friday yesterday when I woke up and again today I hate that feeling !

Sad mood

I am in a weird mood today. I quit my guild on my Star Wars game and I think I did the right thing. I planned on quitting a long time ago when everyone just got so cliquish... I felt like saying this is a game and you guys are all taking things way to serious and the rules of the guild were getting out of hand, but then people started easing up and the drama stopped.
The reason I quit it because our funny, silly and very married leader (who is also is a father of a young daughter) seems to be having an affair with one of the players and openly I might add. It all started for me when their characters had a wedding that I was the maid of honor in this is before I knew, because lots of players do this but they do not actually take it serious, well the more and more I am seeing that the conversations in guild chat have turned to real life chats and on the website (for the guild) there are photos of her, it almost looks as if she were saying here are the photos so you can see what I look like, like most people do when they are chatting up people online and dating. They are both married and this is cheating.My deal breakers are you do not lie to me or cheat on me, it is simple and makes life pretty easy for me really... it is a clean break. I am married now and do not have to worry because I know my husband is not the kind of person, even though for years he had a fairly skewed view of dating and commitment from a former friend. I don’t have time in my life for people like that. I feel bad for their spouses; I think my last straw was when they pretty much said they are lucky that there spouse did not game and that they would never know. Stop wasting your spouses lives and stop hurting them! People like that are so selfish and just look out for their feelings. The girl’s husband is off fighting the war and is “never home”
Wow so you are upset? Did you not know this before you said I do? ... Here is my suggestion get a divorce then date! So here I am feeling bad and these are people I know IN GAME! I need some real friends!

Working out

I am back on track with my working out (2-days in a ROW! yippy) so here is the secret.... music! I have a pretty good cd that has some high power matrix type stuff on it.... Yes call me Trinity kicking all the pounds away! So knowing me, I will be SICK of this music soon like the end of the week I will be needing something new. So I would like some ideas on some music. I tend to like Techno, Alternative, Heavy Metal stuff to work out too (NIN, Ministry, Radio Head, Moby) I like lots of music!! So I need fast paced music ideas that will get me in gear.

Walk

today I will talk a long walk during my lunch hour and try to do so each day.
I am not ready to balloon up like a blow-fish and give up on my self. I wonder how many people my age are going to reach their fifties when they (this includes me) sit around and do nothing most of their lives. So I will walk and eat better and drink lots of water and .... try not to die of a heart attack. Now that I am feeling a little scared of those thoughts I will walk! Maybe one day soon I can actually work out on my Gazelle at home with out needing a cane after.

Smoking Ban

I am glad it passed. I think people were looking at it in the wrong way the people that were not for the ban. I have been there so addicted to cigarettes that if anyone even told me that I should quit I would blow a fuse, I never thought I could live or breathe or be calm without one. I have not smoked in six years and while I feel really good and can breathe that urge is always there., but then it passes.
It was made really easy when I started working in the medical business and looked at lab results and then later worked for a research lab and saw the results of pre-screens before folks were allowed into a study. It is amazing how glossed over people are.. if you are around ANYONE who smokes near you in a closed room or breath in direct smoke you will test positive for cigarettes… no for an hour or a day BUT ONE WEEK! If you work in a bar or a club you may as well just be a smoker. When I say you test positive for nicotine …yes it is the same kind that causes cancer.
People if you want to smoke, fine. Just do it away from me and my family I chose to quit so I could live and no car exhaust is not the same thing and will not cause the same effects and yes we will all die one day but I will be breathing and not choking to death way before my time when I do.

Monday!

Today started out and my car did not, So Derek drove us to work and school and that was nice.

I am here at work and have all kinds of plans for what I want to do when I get home, I hate doing that because I always end up not doing anything that I think of, almost like I am rebelling against myself.. I have to remember I am a grown up now.

Things that I know I will do is:
Get a car battery
Get a movie at blockbuster ($15 a mo all you can rent!!!)
Play either SWG or WoW (Maybe both)
Watch OZ (season 2 thanks to Evil Mike for letting us borrow it)
.... but I need to vacuum too and walk and do grown up things too... we'll see.


Ahh I wish it was time to be home now. soon!
