And Thus Begins...
The Weekend Update

I'll start with Friday night.
It's so hard to write our weekends down because they are just so full of great stuff. We only stayed out till 10:30 friday night, well let me rephrase that. Our curfew was 10:30, we got home at 11:30. Croker came and played with us for awhile as did Jim. Then JL showed up with Chad "the hermit" Harris, some old boys Jess went to high school with and then of course JONI! We love that girl, even though her middle name is trouble and she drinks more McCormicks Vodka than any human ever should. She's such a blast. Brian showed up with a mullet wig on. I shit you not on this one folks. Apparently he'd been wearing it all day, even to his job interview that morning. Needless to say he didn't get that job because he couldn't keep a straight face. The mood was light, but I pulled out the rubber boots later on cause the shit was gettin deep. Jessica talks more shit than the law should allow and I'm afraid it's gonna bite her in the ass real soon. Of course, I need a little chastising also because somehow or another my dumb ass was on the phone with Tyler, a.k.a the 'naughty school boy' talking some EXTREME shit. I don't know what I was thinking, it must have been the beer. Now he keeps asking about me, sorry babe, not in this lifetime. We somehow managed to find ourselves outside in the parking lot for a nice part of the evening, although I don't rightly know why at this time. Nonetheless, the parking lot is where all the bad shit happens. It's where you make that pivotal decision to go home, or god forbid...The Ponderosa! oh wait, that was last night. Anyway, there is something terribly wrong about being hit on by the recently divorced fathers of you students, and being hit on the by the guy's dad you were boning a few nights ago (ahem, Jess). We of course handled it all quite well and left every single one of those 5 boys on the porch hangin. But then the next morning I had these mysterious text messages from CHD. He wanted to 'show me and Jess somethin' I'm thinking no, but thanks.

Now on to Saturday night...

We started at a retirement party for one of my dad's oldest friends. I think it would be a great blessing to one day have a party like that where all of my friends and family were there. It was great. It's the small things like that that make it so special here. So the evening started out with a little beer, a little dancing, and then a whole lot of home made muscadine wine, in addition to a little apple wine. Jess did the chainsaw, we all 'fed the chickens', and then came the lap dance. They tied up the retiree and blindfolded him. Then one of the guys came out in a dress with his hair all up in a ponytail (he had a mullet) and gave him a lap dance. It was CLASSIC! I laughed so hard, I even went and put a dollar bill in his dress, hahaha. After that the party was rather anitclimatic, so we hit the bar. Where of course my ex was with his scary new woman. She's big, not just overweight big, but like amazon big. I don't think I'd piss her off too much. Well we took my Aunt with us and that was an experience. As soon as I walked in the door some older, nice looking gentlemen were sitting at the bar with their 'ladies' for the evening and they all turned around and were trying to unbutton my shirt. WTH!? were you raised in a barn!? Then they kept asking me how much I paid for those things. Of course Travis (owner of the bar) asks me that like every time I see him. I don't dig the harrassing, you have to be subtle about it like Freddy and Archie. They need to learn some manners, or I need to find a better class of losers. I wore Justin Morgan's hat all night, god is that boy sexy. I never noticed it for the longest time either, and then just one day it hit me. I'm a shameless flirt with that boy though, and of course I especially was last night because the ex was there. Not that I was trying to make him jealous really, I just don't want him to think I ever missed a beat without him. I think I did a good job of that last night, haha. For some ungodly reason Jess found it neccessary to hit on a married man for most of the night. Then Pruitt showed up. It all went downhill from there. I BROKE THE RULES!!! Remember that pivital point in the parking lot I was talking about earlier? Well this is where it went wrong. Instead of driving the two miles back to my house, we ended up at the Ponderosa. Where Jess's antics proceeded to piss me off, and Pruitt's advancements began to make me ill. I asked Cyndi "Is there something wrong with me?" Her reply was "no honey, you just have standards, that's all". I'm sure Jess is aware I'm a little irritated with her since I haven't heard from her today and I told her last night I didn't want to go to the circus with them today. So here I sit trying to recover from another bad weekend chugging down coffee while I should be sleepin...

Do you ever get that feeling that all that "fun" you have on the weekends is just to make up for everything you don't have in your life? I guess seeing them together gets easier every time, but I'm just ready for it to be OVER!

S
you can count on me..
from: http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/t2.htm
To see a tornado in your dream, suggests that you are experiencing some extreme emotional outbursts and temper tantrums. Is there a situation or relationship in your life that may be potentially destructive?
To dream that you are in a tornado, signifies that you are feeling overwhelmed and out of control. You will be met with a series of disappointments for the next week or so. Your plans will be filled with complications.
To see several tornadoes in your dream, represent people around you who are prone to violent outbursts and shifting mood swings. It may also symbolize a volatile situation or relationship. (that makes so much sense because Jamie was so volatile)

Hmm...overwhelmed and out of control? Now what exactly would cause that?
The winterguard routine I have yet to finish?
The 4 winterguard contests coming up?
The final in my PPR class next week?
The 4 Taks kids that I have that MUST pass this test?
Not getting home till 10pm every night?
Teaching 3 preps?
My CRUCIAL exit exams I have in a few weeks?
Wanting a place of my own?
I just don't think I can pin down exactly which one of those things it would be.

♥Oh, so vintage... 3:52 PM

Tornados...
I have these 'recurring' dreams about tornados. I've been having them for the past 3-4 years I'd say, maybe even longer. The first ones were always in the same place. I was at Jamie's house, but it wasn't her house. There were always tornadoes anywhere from 3-5 of them on the horizon. They always surrounded us. Then I didn't have them for awhile until about 6 months ago. I had one in which my mother and I were on our way to Humble and they were surrounding us everywhere. As soon as one would dissipate, more would be there to replace them. We were trying to outrun them, but we eventually had to stop the car and get into a ditch. We had to get under the water while the tornado passed over to survive it. Once that one was gone, they all were and I woke up. The more recent one was after Christmas. The tornados in this dream were massive, much like the ones on day after tomorrow. My mom and I were in the car again I don't know where, and the tornado actually picked us up and sat us back down with no harm. I knew however, as soon as it set us down that my dad had been in one too. We were looking for him and we found his truck with all of the doors ripped off, but we didn't find him. I woke up then. I had another one just the other night. It was back out at Jamie's and she was there this time. I don't remember much of it except that the tornados this time were extremely thin and long. They were perfectly formed and so vivid. I don't know what they meant, they were so different from the rest.
I don't know what they mean. I can relate one of the recent ones to my break up and everything seeming to disintegrate all at once, but the rest of them, I just don't know.

Ain't it just like one of us to pick up the phone and call after a couple of drinks,And say: "How you been? I been wonderin' that maybe you've been thinkin' 'bout me."And somewhere in the conversation, an old familiar invitation always arrives,

An' I may hate myself in the morning, but I'm gonna love you tonight.

Everyone's known someone that they just can't help but want;And even though we just can't make it work out, well the want-to lingers on.So once again we wind up in each other's arms, pretending that it's right,

An' I may hate myself in the morning, but I'm gonna love you tonight.

I know it's wrong, but it ain't easy moving on.So why can't two friends remember the good times once again?Tomorrow when I wake up, I'll be feeling a little guilty, an' a little sad,Thinkin' how it used to be before everything went bad.An' I guess that's what it is, in lonely late night calls like this, that we try to find;

An' I may hate myself in the morning, but I'm gonna love you tonight.

I may hate myself in the morning, but I'm gonna love you tonight.

I HATE THIS SONG.

Daily Horoscope for Virgo - 01/29/05
Still not done clearing the air? Still feel as if there's something you need to say? Well, go ahead. Just make sure you're finished by tonight, because the heavens are ready to banish all such unpleasant moments to the past. To cooperate, all you have to do is finish up on that diatribe you started days ago -- and then resolve to let it go, permanently. Are you up for it or what?

Days ago? they mean months ago right?

I broke my finger today.
I slammed it in the door of my car and actually had to open the door up again to get it out.
The same finger I broke
The same exact way
Almost two years ago to the day.
right now it's got it's own heartbeat, but I'm hoping that goes away soon.

"2. Did Friends ever "Jump the Shark?" http://www.jumpedtheshark.com/f/friends.htm
"Nah,
though I only watched reruns so was never current with it. D'oh!"
I've never even heard of this site. Cool stuff though, check it out.
I can't decide what I think. There were a couple of seasons I didn't watch because I just had more important things to do. But it wasn't because I thought the show had taken a turn for the worst. I was there for the last episode and I own way more seasons that I should.

"Drama makes the world go round"
Or so says Fred Durst. Although, I would neither consider him a philosopher nor wise, I believe he's got a point there. I must admit looking at everyone else's drama makes me glad I have very little of my own. I'm blessed with a few good friends who don't give me crap, even when their soon to be ex-husband accuses me of having an affair with him. Even though, our weekends are rowdy, our friends are a little rough around the edges, we hang around too many dirty old men, and our lives are often less than glamorous, we still love each other and never miss a day of each other's lives. We know that no matter what cards are dealt in the morning, we'll ante up with each others support at the end of each day. I've managed to remove a lot of the negative aspects of my life that did little more than fuel the gossip and emotional rollercoaster that has been my life in previous years. And those I didn't get to remove quickly enough had an almost magical way of removing themselves. I'm at a point where I hate giving people advice and have no desire whatsoever to offer them comfort. Because guess what, you can listen to me whine about not making the same mistakes I did all day long, but the truth is baby, you've gotta bust your ass a few times before you figure out the ice is slick. Besides, there is a healthy emotional reaction of shear amusement when you watch someone else screw up the same way you just did. Gives you a little comfort that you aren't the only moron in the world. So sit back, relax, watch others screw up, and enjoy the ride.

Happiness is just a teardrop away...

While it's still VERY fresh on my mind, let me re-itterate why I said last weekend "NO MORE"
Well first lets ask a couple of questions...
1. Where are Jessica's car keys?
2. Where is Lacy's cell phone?

Ok, let me give you the answers...
The keys are locked in Jessica's truck which is the reason we had to drive the ex's truck to my house and get my keys because he was so drunk I had to drive him home. After driving him home I SOMEHOW LOST MY PHONE. I hope to GOD that it's in his truck and will be safely located in the morning. I however fear that Jessica is going to have to pay quite the price for her keys, whereas I will only have to ask my hungover ex for my phone.

What is it that makes a person defensive?
Is it what we love that makes us hate others so much?
Is it for the shear sake of arguement?
Who really is worth our defense?
Why do we get so angry over things that mean so little?
Why is it we put so much weight on the opinions of others when there is only one opinion would should ever value?

Today is Tuesday
I thought today on my way home "wow, tomorrow is already wednesday and time to plan the weekend". Then this sort of twinge hit my stomach as I thought about my weekends. I have such a positive environment all week and then on the weekends I expose myself to such negative things. Don't get me wrong, I have fun. But, I'm really starting to question "Am I living it right..."? I mean I spend the week being a role model and getting to know these great little people and they think I'm something that I'm really not. I know you should have a private life and all, but it's starting to make the guilt sneak in. It's amazing how much this job really changes you.

Things you love to hear and wish were true...

VIRGO
Your love life is currently a very busy place -- and a pleasantly crowded one, too. You're entertaining four earthy, practical astrological energies in your house of love, all of them intent on getting you together with someone who's just as respectable, responsible and practical as yourself. If you're single, your chances of meeting someone you'll actually find intelligent and interesting are really, really good. If you're with someone, snuggle up and plan on spending some time alone. It's time to fall in love all over again.

I can't even describe last night. All I can say this morning is "NO MORE"
We've vowed to write a set of rules that we must abide by from now on when we go out. Things are always great at the bar, it's when we leave that things go terribly terribly awry. We realized today that both of us being single is WAY more trouble than we know how to handle. Before at least one of us had a man to keep them grounded. Now that we're both unattached, Damn world, you better look out. It all starts off so innocently and then the old men keep buyin ya beer, then some hot guy that you've yet to mark of your list walks in and it all goes to hell in a hand basket. I've yet to figure out why it is that Jess and I loose all logic where certain men are concerned. I miss the stability of a relationship. There is something very comforting about going home with the same person and waking up next to them instead of waking up thinking "holy shit, where the hell am I and who the hell is he" of course I wasn't the one thinking that this morning thank God. My exact thoughts were Jesus Christ why in the hell was I taking shots of whisky and am I still drunk?

My Song for 2005
Because as of today I refuse to settle for less

Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where’s the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?

Isn’t there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and I turn and I dream of what I need

I need a heroI’m holding out for a hero ‘till the morning light
He’s gotta be sure
And it’s gotta be soon
And he’s gotta be larger than life
Lager than life

Welcome to my life where...
"Every night is Saturday night and every morning is Christmas"

We rang in the new year last night rather quietly. Which was rather appreciated compared to the night before. Good lord save me from my sinnin ways. At least I woke up this morning with a man of my choice, not so much like the previous new year. I sometimes don't know where to start when telling about my wild nights, but of course sometimes I don't know when to stop either. We decided to go pick up Croker Wednesday evening and get a head start on the festivities. We headed down to the local hangout, socialized, then headed to 'the big lights' as John so eloquently puts it. Even though we suffered a near miss with officer Broyles last weekend, we still decided we'd brave the Ponderosa just to see what was happening. I seriously wonder if other people have as much fun as I do. I know I get all pissy about things every now and then and it seems I post about the pissy things more often than not, but GOD I love this crazy, tragic, sometimes almost magic, awful beautiful life. So I'll count down the great things I've done this past week.
10. Witnessed the carnage of Ivan in P-cola
9. hung out with my favorite two boys on earth
8. emerged victorious from another encounter with the ex and his new flame
7. taught JL and Jess how to 'feed the chickens'
6. set off fireworks in the parking lot of my bar
5. had a 'slumber' party with Croker and Jess
4. Drank too much wednesday night
3. cried on Bradley's shoulder
2. caught up with lots of old friends last night
1. had another slumber party and dined at el burrito this morning

Aren't we the cutest?

"What the hell's it look like I'm doin? Bakin a cake?"
