Writer's Block: Bedside Manners

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 23:37:42 GMT

Hospital dramas are a time-honored staple of television, from General Hospital to County General to Seattle Grace. Which TV hospital would you most want to check in to? And who would be your doctor?

View other answers

oh jeez i'd want to be at general hospital for certain reasons as well as the ER from county general and also seattle grace. all for different very cute reasons lol
Patrick Drake would of course be my doc at General hospital, uum john stamos from county general and hhmm this is a tough one from seattle grace i think most of the boys on that show are cute. so i'd need a reason to see Dr Sloane, Karev, O'Malley and Shepard.
But then i'd also want to check into sacred heart (scrubs) and visit dr doran lol

I keep forgetting about the downtime tomorrow

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 04:47:48 GMT

I am so gonna go thru withdrawls lol.
at least for the most part I won't be home.
Mom and i went shopping tonight we got stuff for my sister in law's baby shower.
We are having it at my house. We needed to get soda and plates and stuff. We are still shopping for it though.
We need to figure out what kind of food we are serving. We have an idea just still kicking some things around.
Still debating on if we are gonna get party trays at Sam's Club or buy cheese and crackers and stuff separately.
It would probably be easier to get trays.
We have a recipe for chicken that we are gonna try this week to possibly serve. Mom also mentioned having italian beef as well. Have the chicken for those who do not like beef.
There will be a few salads made too. I just hate that the menu still isn't finalized and the shower is next week.
This month is just flying by.

Happy Monday

Mon, 17 Nov 2008 22:27:29 GMT

I have been in a royal slack mode.
I haven't felt all that great lately. I've been tired and just not motivated. I think it's because of the lack of sunlight and stuff though. I hate this change into winter.
We've had a bit of snow none sticking as of yet (thank god).
I think I need a SAAD light or something.

I am watching Liam tomorrow so that will help get me out of my rut.

Writer's Block: Political Misdeeds

Mon, 17 Nov 2008 09:01:25 GMT

Today is the anniversary of Tricky Dick Nixon's famous "I am not a crook" statement. Let's take a moment to ponder the many politicians caught being naughty. What's your favorite political scandal?

View other answers

there are soo many.... I think my fave is the one where the dude was in the public bathroom lookin for some gay sex. Or the dude doin the dirty chattin online with the young male pages.
But there are soo many good ones to choose from.
I think another fave was Newt Gingrich after talking all kinds of shit about Bill Clinton getting some head he was cheating on his wife.
I mean I know politics isn't all squeaky clean but I love when it bites someone else in the ass when they are being hypocritical.

Writer's Block: Department of Stereotypes

Sun, 16 Nov 2008 08:29:52 GMT

One of the most popular gender stereotypes is that women ask for directions while men would rather be lost than ask for help. In your personal experience, does this stereotype hold true?

View other answers

well I am not one for asking strangers directions especially if i am alone. I am kind of paranoid about not knowing where i am going so when i do go someplace i've never been to before i am obsessive about mapquesting it or even using my dad's GPS so i DO NOT get lost.
NOW... If i am not alone I would so ask directions.

LJ downtime??? OMG say it isn't so...

Sat, 15 Nov 2008 00:13:26 GMT

Not sure any of you read the LJ maintenance site but we will be having some downtime Tuesday.
It'll be pretty much during the time i won't be home.... BUT I will still be thinking about it. Sad yes but very true.

I generally check LJ like a crazy person b4 I have to leave and as i am getting ready so this will be taking place during that time. There will be serious withdrawls from my end. Paranoia the shakes everything an addict deals with I am sure.
Once LJ is back and i can read my friendlist to my hearts content I may recover, not promising anything though.

Drama Free Thursday Homework

Fri, 14 Nov 2008 02:48:22 GMT

popfiend Gave us on his f-list homework to tell people that matter to you that they matter.
I mean that makes sense since not everyone tells people in their lives that they matter.

I don't think of those of you on my flist as just people who read my journal. There is more of a connection there. We friended each other for a reason either i met you from a makeup message board or other places or we met thru a friending frenzy or randomly in a community But I value all of your opinions which is why I invited you into my life which is pretty much what my journal is.
I know sometimes I don't always tell exactly what is going on at the moment it's going on (the last friends only post about what is going on in my life right now is pretty much testament to that)
But if I can't be honest here where can I be?
This is the place where I feel I can be the most honest about anything. Where i share things i find or like with my friends. Not that you all like my taste in ANYTHING lol but I share it anyway.
If you are reading my journal, if you comment or not I know i can be bad about commenting on every post but i do read. Sometimes i do get behind but I do try to check my flist at least once a day to catch up with all of you.
I want you all to know that you do matter to me.
If you are reading this from my imported note on facebook you matter to me as well.
Have a wonderful rest of your drama free Thursday my friends.

SOO tired.......

Fri, 14 Nov 2008 01:07:18 GMT

I got all kinds of sleep last night but today i am just drained.
I watched Liam today. He did not take a nap. Normally when i get there he's sleeping. And sleeps for at least and hour and a half after i get there.
Well Kelly told me Liam had been waiting for me to get there lol . (for at least 2 hrs b4 i got there) So no nap was taken.
So i tried to get him to go to sleep and since Kelly did not want him sleeping past 2:30 by the time 1:30 rolled around it was too late for him to even take a nap cus he wouldn't get a good sleep.
So we were playing games and then we decided we were gonna go to the park.
Liam found a stick on the way to the park that he had to bring with him so we had this stick he said it was for his dog I knew better lol.
then I found out that since he's potty training and wearing underpants and not his diapers that his jeans are too big and they kept falling down it was too late to go back home to change his pants so we had to deal with droopy drawers at the park.
We were at the park for maybe 15 mins alone then some other kids showed up I had liam put his stick down so we could play at the park without poking out an eye. These kids showed up and he got all nervous about if they would take his stick. So i took him out of his swing so he could get it (i had it in my pocket the rst of the time)
well these boys seemed ok at the start. one of them was even kinda playing with liam. THEN the older boy said liam was too small to play and then they both proceeded to block him from going down slides or even climbing up the ladders to even attempt to go down the slides. (i took pics but will post them in a friends only post after i post all of this)
They were there with a nanny who obviously does not have any control over these kids. after the one kid pushed liam down i grabbed him and took him to the swings where they could not hurt him and to talk to the nanny.
The older kid (5 year old) said he didn't do anything i said uum i am an adult who does not have to lie and does not have anything to gain from lying and that YES he did do all the things i told her.
Then Liam wanted off the swing and to play in this little path by some bushes and a tree. Then the annoying boys followed. Liam tripped over a root then it was time to leave lol I got him to stop crying though told him big boys don't cry lol
On the way home he was still sad so i had him ride on my shoulders he really kinda dug that lol. we got home i took his jeans off him cus they were falling off anyway he had a snack. Then his dad pretty much came home. He was really tired though and started crying cus he wanted to take a nap. He had climbed into his bed. Poor kid.

Ok so that was my day.... how was yours???
