Seriously?...

So, it turns out, I'm a sore loser. We were playing Five Crowns tonight (a fantastically lovely card game), we being, Mom, Dad, Joe and I, and I lost. I was in first place until the last 2 rounds. That just stings!! I wish I was a better loser, but I guess that's like wishing for it to rain candy!

This was a busy week. I worked my 4 days at the shelter, 2 of which were lacking in the AC department! Fun! Then, I covered phones in the Mail Order Department at Sticky Fingers (that's my old job) on Thursday and Friday, so instead of my nice set-up of 3 days off, I had just one. Not horrible, but I was so tired this week!

I do like, that on Thursday, I spent 30 mins on the phone with one customer, only to hang up and spend 30 mins on the phone with the next customer. One of which ended with an invitation to Las Vegas, but I should go in December when the Rodeo is in town. I love when people just want to call and talk. The guy ordered, but then he told me like 5 jokes and gave me a long comparison of OJ Simpson and Michael Jackson. I thought this too was a joke, but I'm pretty sure he was being serious, and felt that there was some conspiracy theory between the two. Weird, but an interesting way to spend a morning. People really do make me laugh sometimes!

Two Two (the cat) has found a string, or better yet, stole a string off my comforter and is now doing as she has done before, and obsessively carrying it around and meowing at you until you pick up the string and play with it with her (does that make sense?) It's cute at first, but her obsession has no boundaries. She doesn't care if you are sleeping, watching a movie, or eating. Now, my dog doesn't bark, but I think the lack of volume she has Two makes up for. She sounds like she is being tortured when she meows. Needless to say, we give in and play with the string. The hilarity of it all is when she jumps all 4 feet off the ground and wiggles around in the air trying to get to the string. Yeah, she's precious!!

South Carolina is having its Tax Free Weekend this weekend, which is supposed to aid in back to school supplies for parents and teachers. So where do wedding dresses fall into this category? Yes, this weekend, wedding dresses are tax free. I can understand, paper, pencils, and clothes, but a wedding dress is not an outfit that is worn to school, near school, or anything to do with school!! Just a strange thing that can only happen in SC!

One last rant. Kayla came in last on So You Think You Can Dance (SYTYCD) on this week's show. Why? Because she has talent, skill, the ability to take any dance style and ROCK it, but she came in 4th... Evan, who can only do Broadway well, came in 3rd. Brandon, who thought his ticket to winning the show was to show off his body. Yes, he danced in his undies one night. Then Jeanine won... I'm ok with that. She was good, but not the best. I realize SYTYCD is trying to find "America's Favorite Dancer" but I just wish America respected Kayla's skills. And breathe...

I realize these are all random things, but they are my life, random as it may be, I like my life!

Happy Day!
