Men/Pigs, same thing

Post by: Chris on December 26th, 2007 | File Under CoDependant

Well here I sit on a quiet Wednesday night. My son has a friend over, so I actually get a couple hours of uninterupted peace. I decide to log into Yahoo Chat, which I tend to do on occation cuz I love to chat! so fun, Anyways this guy pulls me up. I call him Flyboy, as I have nicknames for each and everyone of my chat friends. K, so the story goes, I met him online like months ago, cant even remember when, but I do remember that he called me a “flake” in his last email, and said some terribly rude things to me cuz I had to break a date. K, I broke the date like 6 days in advance! It was not like the same day or anything. I could not get a sitter for my son and explained the entire thing to him, but he still called me a flake and was slammin’ me and pretty much yelling via email. (oh, and you need to know that he lives one hour away and was expecting me to drive to him. such a gentleman, not) He was so rude in that email, but I still laughed hysterically cuz it was all speculation on his part cuz he does not know me and my situtation w/the X.

Anyways, I delete all emails,address and chat links. He must have not done the same to me, cuz low and behold, there he was. Acting if nothing happened. Me, who remembers everything, nicely replys to his bombardment of questions; did I find a keeper yet (whats a keeper? I have no clue whats he talking about) Am I seeing anyone, ya know, the basics. No, I still answer nicely, cuz I am not a rude person, I have my blog to vent on ! (like now!) So we start taking about Blogs, I say I am making a little cash, he asks if I quit my job. good gosh. he has no idea what a blog is. I am actually surprized that people out there dont know about this! We talked all little about January and February and how my nutso friends come out and bug me cuz they know I am codependant. He asks what I am codependant on. LOL, I was ROTFL ! ! I guess he really doesnt know what that is either.

Anyways, he stopped chatting after I while. but I am proud, I was nice; did not bring up the past, was not rude, and didnt make any snide comments (which I am known to do).

So thats the highlight of my nite. It was a good night. I think I will go back over to my nice and toasty fire, send my son’s friend home, have a cup of Hot Chocolate in the new Mug my son gave me for Christmas, and watch Pushing Daiseys.

Ain’t life wonderfull! I am happy.

XOXOX

Togetherness

Post by: Chris on December 23rd, 2007 | File Under Every Day Things

I am originally from the Chicagoland area and not a native of Utah. Even though I do consider myself a Local, I was born back East. At times I do miss the Eastern part of the States. Last time I was there, my cousin was getting married. Let me tell you, it was one heck of a party! Full bar, live Band playing great music, dancing, full dinner, it was pretty awesome to say the least. I have heard that Philadelphia Weddings are pretty awesome as well. They really know how to celebrate. I will have to recommend this site to my friend who is getting married in March. I don’t care for the month of March as thats the month I got married, but I do have to support her as she is a good friend of mine. She is a Raiders fan, and as we all know, they are rather crazy! Her fiance proposed to her at halftime at a game they recently attended. For her, that was the most romantic thing he could do. I know them both very well, and it’s true, they are made for each other. I already told her to make sure she invites me. They are going to do the entire wedding in a Raiders Theme, from colors to food to music and even dress. I think she will be wearing a white dress, but underneath will be something different. Really ! I personally think she needs a wedding planner. She has lots of idea but needs someone to put them all together.

Such fun. Now I have something in March to look forward too!

Condo’s v House’s

Post by: Chris on December 23rd, 2007 | File Under Every Day Things

Here it is, Sunday; snowy outside, but warm inside our little condo. I don’t know if I mentioned this before, but we do live in a condo. It’s not one of those apartment condo’s, but more like a twin home condo. We have a small yard and really terrific neighbors that help keep our place looking beautiful. We really like it here, but some day I do want a real house. We have also owned rental property as well, so I have been looking into HomeVultures. This is really not that great of a time to buy, or sell for that matter, but come next year we really want to start looking at homes. I do miss having a big yard all to myself.

Oh, a good thing though, is that I don’t have to shovel all this snow, the condo people do! We are supposed to get another 6 inches in the valley today and tonight!

Why do I make the bed?

Post by: Chris on December 21st, 2007 | File Under Every Day Things

We just got this really cool bunk-bed for my son. But its rather difficult to make the fetchin’ bed every morning. I have to crawl up there and re-arrange everything; fluff the pillows, straighten the blankets and organize all the animal. He likes stuffed animals. I demanded he keep the number of animals to a minimum, as before, his bed would be covered head to foot with them! and of course, I have to make sure they all face upwards in an orderly manor. Why I ask, do I do this every day…? My mom did it for me and I remember being thankful each night for a crisp fresh bed; I loved it so much. and I think he does appreciate me when I make the bed each morning before the suns rises. XO
