Life could be worse!

So I figure life could be worse as so many have repeatedly pointed out to me. So begins my weekly... Life could be worse!



I could have horribly poor hand eye coordination!


***Oh and PS... I'm totally awesome.. I just bought a Twilight shirt to wear to the midnight show! I'm such a nerd!

Not so much venting...well... maybe just a little

First off I got tagged! so I will do this first:

A) Four places that I go to over and over:
Work, Walgreens, Walmart,My moms house
(how pathetic is that?)

B) Four people who e-mail me (regularly):
Toni, Mom, Abbey, Mary (mom-in-law)

C) Four of my favorite places to eat:
Native New yorker (yeah yeah Mandy!!), Chick-fil-a (excellent chkn salad), Texas Roadhouse, and...hmmm... Outback

D) Four other places I would rather be right now:
Hawaii, Disneyland, Somewhere in Europe, Basically anywhere but here.

E) Four people I intend to tag:
Mandy, Jill, Suzette, Katie (and anyone else who wants to do it)

F) Four TV shows I watch:
Only 4? Hmm...Lost, The office, Ugly Betty, (and I should probably put something semi smart in there) How about.... The Daily Show.

Okay ladies, now its your turn. Its easy, just 4, 4, 4, 4, 4,4 things about you. Have fun.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I thought I should just update. Well I still get horribly depressed when I go to work. And poor Adam, I feel like I just take it out on him. However... since I've been nagging, he is doing more. I just love him so much. I still feel bad. The good thing about this week, however, is that every day that we have come home from work, there hasn't been crap torn up and strung from one end of the house to the other.... But how could we get mad when they are so darn cute.... (see picture)







Just lounging...






See... so darn cute. But anyway, I have decided that nobody is really of any help to me with my problems. This revelation came after I was complaining to Adam (and crying yet again) and he just said in frustration "What do you want me to do? I can't do anything for you!" And even though I feel like I'm having these little bouts of depression, I don't want to turn to meds or anything yet. But like one of my other friends mentioned it seems like most everyone is having hard times right now. And everyone's problems are different. So from everyone that I've talked to (some helpful, while others...not so much)...Alot of people just think I'm being silly and such a cry baby. I mean there are like ice caps melting and people dying in Africa and stuff. And then they say I just need to stop worrying all these silly little things.... REALLY? REALLY?!?!?REALLY?!?!
WELL KISS MY GRITS!! I must be so stupid, that I couldn't figure that one out! JUST STOP WORRYING! Thanks to all those out there that helped me see the light! Now maybe I'll be able to get to bed before 5 and actually sleep through the night. I won't name names or anything. Cause there were lots of you out there that did help and that sympathized with me and I totally appreciated it. But I just realized that I can't really count on anyone else. So I have to try my darndest to try to fix it. So that's my tyrade. I'm just trying to stay positive, except I've gone from sad and depressed and turned to anger and sarcasm. I like that better. On a lighter note... this last Tuesday, Adam and I went and saw METALLICA in concert!!! It totally rocked!!! And I was totally deaf for at least 2 days. Ok not totally deaf, but there was definately ringing! It...was...awesome! And I'm pretty sure we were definately high the whole time. We had people on each side of us smokin it!


**This is actually what it looked like when they played "One". It was freakin sweet!

So excited!!

So I had to put the Twilight countdown clock on my blog too...Cause I am just so excited for the movie to come out. Hey it might be juvenile, but it's something to look forward to! :)

Plus I just downloaded one of the first songs from the soundtrack. It's pretty good! It's called "Decode" by Paramore. It's so new I can't even put it on my blog yet! bummer :(

Just something funny

So this is just something funny that I read in a magazine. They had an article about John McCain and Barack Obama, and the title was something like "How they overcame adversities" or something like that. And John's side was about how he survived 5 horrible years in a POW camp in vietnam, how his wife divorced him shortly after he came home... etc. And then on the Barack's side, it was about how he didn't have a father figure growing up. WAAAAAA! Hmmm.... That article alone would sway me towards one side more than another. Personally I don't really feel like I want a president who is going to complain about how, in the words of Austin Powers, "Daddy didn't love me!!". So it was just something that struck me as funny. Not that I'm trying to sway anyones vote. I just thought I would share.

Venting.... Everyone needs it now and then

So right now my life is an oxymoron if you will. I am blissfully happy with my husband and dogs. I have a secure job with pretty good benefits, which in these times is great. I have a running car. I have a roof over my head, even though I sometimes think the guy upstairs must practice for a dance class or something. All my neighbors are semi-tolerable, even though I think the guy next to me sells drugs, and the other guy next to him buys them. I don't have a ton of friends but the ones I do have are all my favorites! 90% of my family is crazy, but I wouldn't trade them for anything (and that includes Adams side too). And I'm in pretty good health, besides my bodies unconscious attempt at storing my years supply under my skin instead of in my cupboard (which I just have realized that it was not just an attempt. I'd say it has packed on at least about 6 months worth)! And I know everyone has their problems... some bigger than others. I'm not a single mother trying to make it through. I'm not a married mother with 3 young kids who seem to have been sick for the last 5 months. And I'm watching something on TV about a lady who has no body from the stomach down, and has to get around by pushing herself on a skateboard. So believe me...when I complain I always feel guilty. ALWAYS! And believe me, Adam, I'm sure, is quite sick of hearing me complain. (I know cause he's told me). But I'm sick of hearing people tell me "It could be worse", or "Just be grateful you have a job", BLAH BLAH BLAH. I'm so sick of hearing that. This week has been worse that usual. I applied for a job, still at the same place just a different department. I want this job so bad. My job now isn't horrible, but lets just say that I've never been so bored in my entire life. I feel like I'm in prison. In a small cell all day with 1/2 hour of daylight. Except in prison you get to do whatever you want in your cell, whereas I have to either be busy or pretend to be busy. I am so absolutely miserable, I can't really even put it into words. So I am just praying and hoping and wishing that I get this, so I can save some of my sanity. Now I'm writing this because well I'm tire of the usual things that people say (see above, and if anyone writes any of those things on here I will delete them, don't think I won't!) But you know I figure if you don't want to listen to someone complaining, what better way than here. If you don't like it, just close the website. Easy as that. And I feel bad too cause Adam's not all too happy at his job either. I mean I know that work is supposed to be hard and not all too fun, but should you really be crying the day before you go? Or actually breaking down and crying at work? It's happened, luckily it was on a day where I was all alone. Those are the worst nights. Anyway... so this is why my life is an oxymoron. I am happy, healthy, and living quite comfortably. Yet... I am completely and utterly miserable. And you know I'm not really writing this for sympathy. As I mentioned before I feel extremely guilty when I complain, and there are those of you out there who are having harder times than me. But every one's problems are different, and right now these are mine. Just mine, not Adam's, (even tho this is our website).

So I just recently stepped away from the computer, hung out with my hubby. Played a little Wii. Talked to a friend who is also going through a hard time, and all of that helped me. Not hearing her problems, because they are totally different than mine. But to get out of the little pitty party I was having. I always go back to it, because my mind never really stops thinking about the problems. However, I relaxed, had fun, talked. The bad thing tho...Adam is getting sick. At first he kept telling me it was mono... (I told him I had it in like 6th grade, and now he is certain I have spread it to him, which I very well could have). But just about 2 hours ago he said he was feeling achy and flu-ish. YIPPEE!! Don't get me wrong I have no problem taking care of him I would do anything, but as all women out there know, who are married, dating, or have ever dated a guy who has gotten sick.... THEY ARE BABIES!!! WAAAAWAAAAWAAAAAHHH! But that's ok... I don't mind. I'll just have to quarentine him!

HE'S GOING IN THE BUBBLE!

Well I'm tired of typing so hopefully I was able to end on a good note, now that I am out of my one person pitty party, and if you have made it this far... wow you must be really bored! :)
***And remember if you write any of those things mentioned earlier...you might just get a flaming bag of dog poo on your front step. I have easy access to that stuff now....(insert evil laugh)

Ok... So I hate leaving a post without a picture so here is a comic we found online about a dog named Chester. And if you can translate it...kudos. It's pretty funny:

Just some more cute pics!

So yeah nothing much more is going on right now. Our life is in a boring lull right now. So enjoy some more cute pictures of our "kids".

 

They are BFF's!

 

They love to sleep next to eachother.

 

This is after they were running around the house for about 30 minutes. This is usually how Chester sleeps too. We say he has chicken legs. Funny thing is that Piper sleeps that way too. Must be a Boston thing.

 

This is what they usually look like.. play fighting!

 

This is Piper after playing! They seriously are CRAZY!
