fosheezy my neezy!

Whew. I am SO glad yesterday is OVER. It was like the day from hell. Grab a chair and a drink. . . it's going to be a long one.

I could BARELY stay awake all day at work. Yeah. That'll teach me to go to bed at 1:30am during the work week. I was SO tired & worn out.

Last night, my sister Carol stayed the night with me. She and I and Zoey went to Walmart so I could take advantage of my $100 gift certificate. I bought some makeup, groceries, diapers, and 2 DVD's: Shallow Hal & Monsters Inc. We watched bits & pieces of Monsters Inc. last night, but, Zoey was acting up so it was hard.

I had a TON of stuff in my basket at Walmart. We wait about 1/2 an hour in line because it was so crowded. Carol & I put everything in my basket on the conveyer belt and get up to the lady and she was like, "Uh, do you have 20 items or less?" WTF? I look up and we were in the XPress Lane. F-U-C-K! I was so embarassed and pissed. She would NOT ring us up either. Are you kidding me bitch? The lady behind me was like, "Do you want to put some of the things in my basket and just do 2 transactions?" I said, "No, that's okay - I'll just go to another line." So Carol and I put everything BACK in my basket & head off to another line where we wait another 1/2 hour.

In the meantime, Zoey is getting hungry, so I gave her a piece of bread from the loaf I was buying. Well, she starts choking on it. She's turning red, and I can't get her to get the bread up. I turned her over, and hit her back. By this time I was panicking - almost about to scream for help! I stuck my finger down her throat and pushed the bread down & she swallowed it. OMG - I've never been SO scared in my life. I nearly cried. I was SO ready to get the hell out of f*ing Walmart.

So we get in the car & head to Taco Bueno to grab something for dinner. I call my Mom & she's crying. Apparently, Alfred left. . . . AGAIN. He got mad at her for "not contributing anything" to thier relationship, said she was a f*ing bitch, and gave her the mail key back and said he'd call her in a few days. I felt SO bad for my Mom. I told her that in NO WAY does she deserve to be treated like that. He's an asshole and a self-absorbed one at that. I mean, he's psycho! I see right through his little "nice" acts. I cannot stand him any longer. So, I hang up with my Mom and we get Taco Bueno and head home.

We eat & watch Monsters Inc., and Carol was making some brownies. We were in the kitchen with Zoey pushing her back & forth on her push car on the linolium floor. Well, my sister pushed her too hard & Zoey flipped over the front, slamming her face onto the floor. Ugh. She busted her top lip open, and her little nose was bleeding. I was terrified she'd broken her nose. She only cried for a few minutes, and went back to playing! I cleaned her up, and called the emergency room to ask if a child that young can break thier nose. They said yes, they can break thier nose, but it's rare because they're bones are still soft & most of thier noses are cartilage.(sp?) The nurse said there would be a noticable bump if she had broken it. Well, there wasn't, but it was swollen and the bridge of her nose was starting to bruise. I felt so bad, but my sister felt worse. We finally get into bed, and Zoey had swallowed a lot of mucus & proceeded to cough & throw it all up in bed. GREAT!!!!!!! So, we ended up falling asleep around 11:30. I'm beyond tired now. I handled last night fairly well, And I'm not even on my meds anymore!!! Whew.

Yeah. Anyway, my Great-Aunt called me last week and was like, "I have someone I want you to meet! My hairdresser! He's 33, divorced & has 2 boys." --Yeah, that sounds REALLY promising. So, just to explore my dating options, I made an appt. with him today at 1pm (during my lunch) to get my hair trimmed. So, we'll see how THIS goes! Ha. I said, "Is he good looking?" My Aunt says, "Yes! I think he's VERY good looking." Yeah, that's coming from a 60-something woman who's husband is terminally ill & bed-ridden. ANYTHING is going to look good to her. ;-) ha ha.

So I have NO New Years Eve plans. I might have already mentioned that, but who cares. I'm saying it again because I feel like a loser. I HAVE NO NEW YEARS EVE PLANS, DAMNIT! Shamus said that he, "might not be back from Boston" in time for New Years. Yeah, okay wiseguy. I happen to know for a FACT (through a reliable source!) that he, along with 2 other guys, planned a New Years party at a friend's home. Ha. I'm not stupid, asshole. I know you're ditchin' me. :-( It's all good though.

My Mom bought me some Aveda toning mist for Christmas. The shit is God-sent. It's light, airy, rosey, & feels SO good on your face. She also got me rosemary mint shampoo & conditioner. The stuff is like $18 a bottle - there's NO WAY in hell I'd ever buy it myself! I feel so fresh & so clean clean today! *busts out with the cabbage patch*

For those of you who are SpongeBob fanatics, "Bring it aaaaaaround toooown!"
