On Wednesday evening I was surfing the net like I always do when a headline made my heart skip a beat. I quickly clicked on it, read the story and when I had finished reading it my heart was completely broken. The woman of my dreams Adriana Lima married some basketball player and just like that my dream of meeting her on the bus and asking her to marry me was over and done with, a sad day indeed for me and a whole lot of men out there. All that I am left with are my Victoria’s Secret catalogs, I shouldn’t have said that, for the record, I don’t own or have ever owned any Victoria’s Secret catalogs ever!!. I will take the fifth from now on if this issue comes up ever again.
I am sure that by now you have seen those commercials for Snuggies, the blanket with sleeves as they put it. Well, to me they are the creepiest thing I have seen this year. If you are a gamer like me then I am sure the burgundy ones look familiar, they were in Resident Evil 4 and just thinking about them makes me want to pull out my shotgun. It’s a good thing they didn’t make them in white because if that were the case a whole bunch of people would be accused of being something they are not if you know what I mean, creepy indeed.
The Good, I decided to take a break and took a bus to Palm Springs to just get away. I left on Saturday morning at 8 am on Greyhound, the total was $52 dollars for a round-trip ticket which wasn’t that bad. I got to Palm Springs at exactly 11 am. The weather was pretty nice, not too hot during the day and not that cold at night. I got me a room for $71 dollars and just relaxed, I honestly didn’t do that much. I went out to get some food a couple of times and back to my room. I just wanted to relax, be alone and that is just what I did.
The Bad, is there anything bad about a nice one day getaway?, nope but when one of your bad habits tags along with you uninvited then yes, it’s bad. Friday night I didn’t sleep at all and that was ok because I figured that I would sleep soundly that Saturday. Boy was I wrong about that, at about 9 pm I went to bed, turned off the lights and I could not go to sleep. I would close my eyes but nothing, next thing I knew it was 8 am and I had not gotten any sleep in two days. I was tired and sleepy and I know that if I had slept on Saturday the one day getaway would have been a lot better.
I am so glad that Friday is finally here. I just want to go to bed and rest as much as I can, can you believe that I am still sick. I could call in sick but I already made it through three days and one more is not going to hurt. My healing factor is working so slow this time around and I have no idea why. It sucks being sick and it sucks even more when it lasts a while, more than a week already. I should be back to normal come next week so I will see you then.
The three day weekend was very wet, it rained a lot and since I was medicated I don’t remember that much but here is what I do remember. On Valentine’s Day instead of getting me a date and going to the movies I spent it at home, alone with my medicine, so romantic. Sunday came and I was still under the weather but not under the rain because I was indoors all day. I was feeling so bad that I didn’t even play COD 4, I know, hard to believe but true. I got some sleep and in the evening I got up to watch my favorite show, The Amazing Race 14 season premiere, if you have never seen the Amazing Race now is your chance, I highly recommend it. On Monday I was still feeling sick and the rain just wouldn’t go away for some reason so I slept, slept and slept. Evening came and I was feeling somewhat better, so I got up, got me some soup and sat in front of the TV and then went to bed late. And that is how spent my 3 day weekend, I am still a bit sick but I will be fine and ready to enjoy the coming 2 day weekend, so sad.
Yesterday somebody left some Valentine’s Day chocolates for me, I just wish I knew who that was. Anyway, let me tell you a story, I was just minding my own business on Wednesday going down the elevator to the first floor of my building; doors open I get out and there I saw three of my co-workers chatting away, I said hi and continued on my way when one of the females said to me, “you look so handsome today”, I answered, “I took a shower” to which she replied, “you shaved and had a haircut” so I just smiled and went my way. I hope it wasn’t her because I work under her and that can only spell trouble, besides she is not my type. We are having a Valentine’s party today and she happens to be in charge of the whole thing so I am going to check if the chocolates that she is having at the party are the same as the ones that were left for me. If they are the same then I don’t know what to say but if they are different then I am still left wondering who left me those chocolates.
It’s Friday and since I don’t post on weekends I have to wish everybody a Happy Valentine’s Day today. If I had a Silver Wings Princess I would take her out to the movies, buy her some flowers and chocolates of course but since I am single all I can do is stay home, watch TV, surf the net, play some COD 4 and be sad and lonely. I suppose that I could go out to a bar or some party but I don’t drink so that is out of the question and being around drunks is not my thing, drunks I don’t know at least. It sure sucks being single, anyway have a great Valentine’s day and a great three day weekend.
I am back after not posting on this blog on Monday. I am glad I didn’t post anything on Monday because to be honest the weekend was very bad for me. I got into an argument late Saturday evening with two people that I love, some things were said that really hurt me and that in turn got me pretty upset, I then said things that I shouldn’t have said and spent the rest of the weekend angry. After thinking everything through I am feeling a lot better, I don’t live in the past because nothing can be done about it and that is the way it should be. We are back and speaking to each other again like a family should and that is all that matters to me because I Love them to death.
On a recent post I wrote about the problems i was having with IE 7, I was so feed up with it that I downloaded Firefox as a back up. I was surfing the net just minding my own business this past Wednesday when I decided to search for IE 7, when I got to the site I saw that you could download IE 8 and even though it’s not the final version of IE 8 I decided to download and install it. So far so good, didn’t I say the same about ScribeFire, I decided to give it a test so I went to the websites were IE 7 was having trouble and to my surprise I had no problems.On Thursday, I fired up IE 8 and opened a few tabs, I usually open 5, I check mail, I read news and watch a few videos and then all of the sudden it completely froze. And I mean it froze, I had to push the power button to turn off Sunshine. I restarted in safe mode and then turn it off the way it has to be done and then again turned it back on. I went back to IE 8 with the same tabs and guess what?, yep, it froze again. Went through all those steps again and decided to use Firefox to see if IE 8 was the problem. I opened Firefox, again 5 tabs and I couldn’t believe my luck, it froze as well.I was getting annoyed of course so I said to myself, IE 8 has to go until the final version comes out. I did a system restore and have not had a problem since. I am pretty sure that the problem was related to IE 8 but that is ok, the problem has been solved and life goes on.
This post is dedicated to all the lovely ladies that read this blog. I don’t think that I have ever mentioned the fact that I am single and oh so very available. What some women may not realize is what a big catch I am. I am creative with so much unlimited potential that I sometimes scare myself, in a good way of course. I am like Google stock, when it was cheap anybody could get it and right now anybody, females only please, can get me but sooner or later that Google stock will go up and will get very expensive and just like Google I will be very expensive and taken and the one that got me when I was cheap surely won’t let me go. My advice to you is simple, get me now while I am still cheap, not that kind of cheap, and very available. Why am I writing about this?, because it’s the month of love and everybody needs that, including me.

I was just getting ready to write today’s posts when I noticed that no posts were published last Friday. I did some checking and I just don’t know what happened with my new editor, I wrote the posts and then clicked the publish button but it obviously didn’t happen. I had to use my WordPress editor to post last Friday’s posts and I am going to keep using it until I figure out what happened to ScribeFire. I thought that I had found a new editor until the new Live Writer update comes out but now I am not so sure. I am going to do some test posts with ScribeFire and if it doesn’t work then we are going to have to go our separate ways.
