It is Christmas time, and I keep forgetting that.

You know this is just weird. The news tells us it will be sunny and - gulp - 82 for Christmas. That is just unheard of in all my - cough cough - years. Florida is thankfully so much nicer than Ohio. I do kinda miss the softer grass, as does Sam, but that is the only thing. Anyway, that was not to rub our luck into anyone less fortunate in colder weather, but it is just so weird.

And Christmas is only three days away. ?? When did that happen?

We probably don't realize it as we're really having no celebrating again, but we have gotten many a card from our wonderful flisters - will post proper thank you's later :) In the mean time, if anyone needs help hanging last minute holiday lights, I'll help you. Free o' charge...




I wear Jammies a lot down here.

Final Day at Work

Toady felt like Christmas all day, as this was my last official working day. I was all smiles all day, when I wasn't coughing. As I walked out the door I turned in my paper work and handed my boss my two week notice. I have the rest of this week and all of next week for vacation, already approved.

To say the least he was shocked, but offered a reference if I need one "You are always a good worker, feel free to use my name." He is a nice boss, the head guys are the ass hats.

What a feeling of calm :)

Now to finish packing and we leave on Saturday for sunny weather and a new home.

So how was your day?

OT and Fests

It has been ages, and I'd have to find my calendar from last year to find the exact day, but suffice it to say it's been ages since I got Over Time. Especially a Saturday. Not that I wanted to go in yesterday but it will be nice on payday. At least the arse holes who repeatedly fuck with me, weren't there. So it was a semi relaxing day. I got to speak with formerly known as - Evilantiesnape and [info]thrihyrne.

In other news, the [info]slash_weasley has had a fantastic first week of posting. There is enough fics and art to be posted for an entire month ( Mon - Fri ).

Click her for the Weasley boys fun

The pairings so far -

Bill / Charlie
George / Percy
Charlie / Ron
Arthur / Fred / George
Bill / Charlie


And all this is just week one. There are some very talented individuals over there, and the Mod's have given us a great start, so pop on over and check them out.


Today we're off to the Lake Erie Wine Fest. Starts at 1:oo. Have a great Sunday.

Memorial Day

To day is a day for remembering those who fought and or die for the freedom we love on this planet.

World War II Memorial -



My Grandfather was a Sailor in the Korean War.



My Dad and my Father were both in Vietnam. Neither will talk about it.



And no, none of these are my Dad or Father. Apparently they don't have pictures.

And because they're hot. Happy Memorial Day ->

Why don't they simply make us all indentured servant

Heard this on the news yesterday. And I just don't know why they don't simply make us all indentured servant. That way they can have all the money, all the houses and all they'll have to do is give us a one room shack and a chamber pot.


Here be the latest way to stick it to us further, in Ohio.



I did the math, and being there are roughly 260 working days a year ( Mon - Fri )

- I drive a total of 80 miles to and from work Mon - Fri

- If they use .25 per mile ( a figure I heard second hand )

- I would have to pay the Ohio government $ 5, 200 a year just to work at my current job, using their roads.

- How will they know? They will put a GPS in everyone's car.

This seems a bit invasive to me ( outrage against the extortion of the tax aside ). Would this also open up the legal system to sending out speeding citations from evidence recorded on said GPS? Not to mention, they'll have a record of every where we go. Not that me going to the quicky mart is all that private, but it's still none of their damned business.

Is the $ 110-120 it costs for a tiny sticker each year, not enough for them? Or the rising gas prices. The people exploring this idea don't pay for their gas, we do. We pay for their cars, so naturally they'll never know what the average ever day person will go through.

I know I shouldn't dwell on things like this, and as it's not a done deal only the studying stage, but it just pisses me off. Where the bloody hell do they intend for us to find this extra money when we don't have it now? If I had an extra $ 5,000 a year, I'd pay off some bills.

I wonder if I'd have to pay if I drove on people's grass?

beta help ?

I was wondering if there might be a kind soul out there who might have a few to look at a fic for me? The specifics :

For: [info]slash_weasley

Pairing(s)/Characters: Arthur / Fred / George
Rating: NC - 17
Word count/Medium: 3413
Warning(s): Incest, angst, dark fic, cross-dressing, mention of but not detailed - m-preg, multiple deaths, non-con, torture, human consumption,

Summary: In a world where Voldemort wins the battle, Harry is dead and the resistance is quickly being systematically eliminated. Arthur and the twins are the only Weasleys left free or alive, but for how long?


I have made this a friends post as it is for the anonymous fest.

Good Sabbath to you all :)

Food fight: school bans homemade lunches / WTF

I heard this on the country station as I was coming home from work. I understand their thought behind it, but really this is going over the top.

Not everyone can afford to buy school lunches, and for families that are vegan / vegetarian / Jewish / Spanish, etc. some are quite strict ( and that is not meant to be a slam, anyone who knows me should know this. I had an uncle who's family were strict Orthodox Jewish - and they made awesome food ). So now the school board will now override your morals / ethics / and believes?

I think I would have to tell them where they could put their new rules.


Food fight: school bans homemade lunches


Is it my simply my rebellious nature, or am I completely off base?

Y I M strangness

Really weird thing happened this morning. As many of you know I have a Yahoo email, and use the 'Chat' link instead of the proper YIM. I get those little yellow tabs saying so and so would like to chat with you, accept or decline.

So I got this one a couple weeks back and didn't recognize the name so I just closed it. However it pops up every time I log into Yahoo. Even though I didn't get an email from a flister saying - hey that's me, I accepted just to stop the annoying yellow tab. I'll chat with the person a bit and perhaps they will be friendly.

Today I logged on and this person pinged me, asking if I were there. I said yes, ( I closed it so I can't do word for word, dammet ). Then she said she wasn't into exchanging pictures, but if I went to this website we could see each other face to face.

Erm...I don't do pictures, if you're a flister I will show you my scary mug, but this seemed a bit creepy.

Then she said I'd have to go through an age verification, ..."cuz I'm not showing my pussy to a minor..."

Excuse me? I answered back, "Thanks, but I'm not really into that."

She stopped chatting.

I mean really. She clearly is not on my flist as she wanted me to see her female organ. Perhaps if she were a he, but I'm not sending a pic of my Jr. to anyone. Is it me getting over the hill that I didn't realize people just up and show their business to everyone on the net, so long as they have an interesting yahoo name? And not even on a porn site. If it were a porn site, hey I completely understand that, but my email?

Did I say, she found me through a search on yahoo. Anyway, that was just weird.

Back to your Sunday morning, and I'll leave you with some wonderful Tron art, beautifully created by Yanagoya, over on LJ.

I was tagged by [info]write_light, whom I first met in LA last March. BEHOLD:

The rules:

1. People who have been tagged must, if they want to play, write the answers on their blog and replace any question they dislike with a new, original question.

2. Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you.

Note: These are the rules, but no pressure. Answer if you like, or not. No worries!

Before I continue, lemme me first tag ten folks (assuming 8 will do it):

It looks as though most of my flist has already done this in one fashion or the other, so if you've not...tag you're it :)


1. Make a list of 5 things that you see without getting up.
- An I'm not 40 I'm 39.95, cup of coffee, nice and hot.
- My wonderful Wolfie, doing programing for the radio station
- A vase of sweetheart roses, I gave to said Wolfie
- Streets of Fire poster
- Sam and Dean, patiently waiting to be fed. ( They still have four minutes )


2. How do you style your hair?

- Pull it all back in a pony tail


3. What are you wearing now?

- Shoes, green pants with lots of pockets and strings, bubba gump shrimp shirt Yeah, not too exciting am I?


4. What do you hear right now?

- Against the Grain, Sara Mckeen talking about Corporal Manning.


5. What is/was for dinner?

- As we didn't eat dinner last night, tonight should be...Scallops and shrimp with Thai-Scented Pea Puree, and a light salad.


6. What did you do today?

- Made coffee - priority one, fed Mouse ( Sam and Dean now too ), collected eggs - one green one brown - they're holding the others ransom until I feed them, which I did, threw a load of laundry in washer, and assess the foot of heavy snow we received last night.


7. Dog person or cat person?

- As mentioned above, we are both. Mouse - our energetic kitten, and Sam and Dean the dogs.


8. If you had to change your name, what would you change it to?

9. What was the last thing you bought?

- black socks for me, and thermal socks for Wolfie.


10. Favorite tv program/actor?

- Supernatural, and I guess the actor would be - Jensen Ackles.



11. Favorite book?

12. What are you doing this weekend?

- Not much with all this snow


13. If you could play any musical instrument, which one would you play?

- Bass Guitar?


14. How are you?
