Well, wow! First of all, it's been since April when I last wrote about anything! Lets see, John and I broke up back in May...that was fun...Jesse and I are a bit closer than before ;) Haven't really been to the gym all summer, went with Simone a couple of times, that was fun, and nice! Mom has been on and off crazy as usual. Still workin, which is good right now, John is still living with me even thou, and I should be getting into a house hopefully soon! But my issue now is that I really don't know if I should let John move in with me. Everyone of my friends are telling me not to let him move, and I know it would be best (emotionally) if I don't. Financially it would be good for him to stay, but then he has to move out again within 6months to a year, and honestly I think he's just gonna try to prolong that cause it really is convenient for the both of us. But also, if he's there I can't really try to be on my own and have the time for myself, plus I can't really see anyone else cause that would be hella awkward for everyone involved. So, yea...that's my crap right now.
Other than that...Christmas is literally right around the corner and next stop is good old New Years! Christmas I think will be fun! I don't have much of a tree or presents, but that's OK, I think it will be a great time. Then I need to get my resolution list together for the upcoming year, last years list I did pretty good on. I went places, did things...and had a lot of fun! So hopefully I can do more stuff this next year and maybe get my shit together! and maybe write more in the mean time!!!!
Well....lets see. I am waiting for summer to start so I can start going outside and doing fun things...like swimming, or skating the marina. Started working out with my buddy Jesse, that was a lotta fun...but now he doesn't wanna go with me anymore, I wonder if I gave him a bad vibe or something??? Well, thats cool, he'll come around, but I got Simone to go with me now, so not a total loss, hope to go tomorrow! My bf right now has been on and off pissing me off...not likin that! Had some serious fights and shit and nothin's resolved. Well, I joined Twitter (again)...the first time I was really confused, so I deleted it. But it seems like everyone is on or theres some cool stuff up, so I did another one. Follow me! http://twitter.com/hotwheelzchic
Well, Well...I would say that it is about time, but then I was kinda dreading this day as well. Chance...the infamous 'ex', has decided to contact me once again, this time via facebook. I have to say, he has balls, after everything he's done he has the audacity to try to be my friend once again. Part of me says what the fuck, check it out, I can always delete him. Then part of me says don't even think about it! If I do, well first of all, Johnny will be livid pissed at me....among some of my other friends, and then Chance will also get an inside scoop of my life, which is really not what I want. It took me soooo long to get away from him and now that he's back, its just a bunch of mixed emotions now. I really, truly shouldn't. Then if I decide that I am definitely not gonna let him an inch back into my life, then do I let him know? Well...I am gonna think on this for a bit and really figure it out. Its very, very complex...
So, work. Work, work, work...fucking work! Its not so much the company, more like the people who work for the company, and they don't seem to know how to do their job. Its a freaking circus and there are monkeys putting on the show. I mean, it just seems like anyone can b-s their way through an interview and get any old job . People kissin' other people's ass just to get their foot in the door! I'm sorry that I don't brag about myself, and I don't always have a story about being better than everyone. I know I am not very articulate, and I don't really interview well, but I can work my ass off. I can get the job done, plus some! It also helps when you have a 'fair' interview too.....I mean that's just how I feel. And the sucky part is that there really isn't anything you can do about it except be happy you even have a job. And I do realize that work is very, very hard to find right now, but really...and another thing, where has customer service gone? Doesn't it seem like anytime you need help whether it is over the phone or in the store, there is some wise-crack dumb ass that really doesn't wanna help you and could really care less about what the fuck is going on! Companies are just hiring any local scum-bag so they can save some money. But you know what? Karma. That's right, good old fashioned Karma. It's gonna kick in on everyone one of these days and people are gonna have to suck it! Suffer...deal...oh yes. I actually think that part of the economy crap that's going on is just the start of it. People aren't gonna wanna do business with companies that have shitty employee's. So, we shall see what happens....
So anyways, I'm sure you can tell that I am a bit bitter...and I only hope that I can get over it by the end of the week. I mean, I really have to suck it up until March, and then hopefully I can breathe and not have to worry about the shit that's making my life a living hell! But I have my real, true friends to thank for helping me keep my sanity, I love you guys!
I just wanna say how grateful I am to have such a wonderful person to be our next president! Finally someone to clean up Bush's mess. But at the same time I feel sorry for him, because no matter who is in that office, it will be hard. I am very happy to have someone that has the balls to bring our country back and get it back on track and especially to bring our troops home! I just want to say that I don't know that much about politics, but I will check things out before I jump into stuff, and from what I know, our troops have basically been fighting for nothing. Just keeping oil safe in Iraq because oil tycoons (Bush, Cheney, and the rest of the cabinet) want to keep their investments safe. Bush is no idiot, he was well trained by his father about how to run the country, and he sure ran it into the ground. Not too long ago I spoke with a very good friend of mine that served several years in Iraq, and she told me about all the crap that goes on, and that our government has no clue on what's happening over there. We need to get outta that country and get back on our feet! How the hell can we protect our country from terrorists, when were almost close to a recession and economic failure??? And then everyone is blaming 9-11 and all that crap, well I do give Bush props for getting Saddam Hussein. But that should have been the end of it, and it wasn't. That's where I think Bush went wrong, among other things. Bush did choose WAR, and because of that people close to him gained profit from that. When we got hit in Pearl Harbor, it was almost as bad as 9-11, and that got us into a World War. So anyways...I am once again very happy that Obama will lead us. He is not only very smart, but his wife is even smarter that he is! Plus he picked an awesome vice to help him in areas that he knows he needs help in. He's not afraid to take a challenge and is very family oriented. So the torch has been passed people, get over it! The next generation has picked up the slack, and going forward. Next will we will be able to have the right to gay marriage around the Nation, which should be allowed since we have freedom of religion, it's not up to us to judge people on what they do, they should be able to be happy to do as they wish. But that's another segment. Lets just be happy and celebrate, for it is Obama Day!
Well, today I voted for the first time in my life, and I'm pretty excited about it. I also want to say that I voted Barak Obama for president and that I believe in him. So GO OBAMA!!!!!!
The Statement: Republican vice presidential candidate Gov. Sarah Palin said Saturday, October 4, that Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama is "someone who sees America, it seems, as being so imperfect that he's palling around with terrorists who would target their own country."
The Facts: In making the charge at a fund-raising event in Englewood, Colorado, and a rally in Carson, California, Palin was referring at least in part to William Ayers, a 1960s radical. In both appearances, Palin cited a front-page article in Saturday's New York Times detailing the working relationship between Obama and Ayers.
In the 1960s, Ayers was a founding member of the radical Weather Underground group that carried out a string of bombings of federal buildings, including the Pentagon and the U.S. Capitol, in protest against the Vietnam War. The now-defunct group was labeled a "domestic terrorist group" by the FBI, and Ayers and his wife, Bernadine Dohrn — also a Weather Underground member — spent 10 years as fugitives in the 1970s. Federal charges against them were dropped due to FBI misconduct in gathering evidence against them, and they resurfaced in 1980. Both Ayers and Dohrn ultimately became university professors in Chicago, with Ayers, 63, now an education professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
Obama's Chicago home is in the same neighborhood where Ayers and Dohrn live. Beginning in 1995, Ayers and Obama worked with the non-profit Chicago Annenberg Challenge on a huge school improvement project. The Annenberg Challenge was for cities to compete for $50 million grants to improve public education. Ayers fought to bring the grant to Chicago, and Obama was recruited onto the board. Also from 1999 through 2001 both were board members on the Woods Fund, a charitable foundation that gave money to various causes, including the Trinity United Church that Obama attended and Northwestern University Law Schools' Children and Family Justice Center, where Dohrn worked.
CNN's review of project records found nothing to suggest anything inappropriate in the volunteer projects in which the two men were involved.
The extent of Obama's relationship with Ayers came up during the Democratic presidential primaries earlier this year, and Obama explained it by saying, "This is a guy who lives in my neighborhood … the notion that somehow as a consequence of me knowing somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago — when I was 8 years old — somehow reflects on me and my values doesn't make much sense."
The McCain campaign did not respond Saturday to a request for elaboration on Palin's use of the plural "terrorists."
Verdict: False. There is no indication that Ayers and Obama are now "palling around," or that they have had an ongoing relationship in the past three years. Also, there is nothing to suggest that Ayers is now involved in terrorist activity or that other Obama associates are.
~~~In light of this information, I would just like to say this...Get your facts straight before you come to me about my political beliefs. Thanks!
So lately, well actually just the last 2 days or so, I end up taking time out of my day and just watch people and think. I'm usually in my car when I do this. To me, being in my car, sometimes listening to good music (at least what I think is good, some may disagree otherwise), I just reflect on myself and my life. To tell you the truth, 10 years ago, I would've never thought that I would be where I am at now. I think that I've made it pretty far to be where I am today, and even thou some would think that I am not that successful in my life, they obviously don't know or understand what I've had to go through to get here today, or even be alive today. I've escaped death twice in my existence, and not many people know that. I think about 3 or 4 people know that really. So I just wanted to reflect on myself. So 'Hurrah' to me!!! I have a great lifestyle, groovy car that I love, a good job (lately has unfortunately been a letdown thou), a boyfriend that has really been there for me all along, a faithful doggie companion, loving kitties, and some really great friends. I am generally at peace with myself right now, lets hope this stays like this and I'm good for a while. So thank you everyone for being in my life and having faith in me.
Well, wow! First of all, it's been since April when I last wrote about anything! Lets see, John and I broke up back in May...that was fun...Jesse and I are a bit closer than before ;) Haven't really been to the gym all summer, went with Simone a couple of times, that was fun, and nice! Mom has been on and off crazy as usual. Still workin, which is good right now, John is still living with me even thou, and I should be getting into a house hopefully soon! But my issue now is that I really don't know if I should let John move in with me. Everyone of my friends are telling me not to let him move, and I know it would be best (emotionally) if I don't.
