A Convenient Truth Tuesday, February 27, 2007

Do I agree with Al Gore’s quest to to rid the world of global warming?  Well, I believe that his heart is in the right place and that the world does need to conserve for our future.  But I also believe in practicing what you preach.  Today, an article was released on Al Gore’s $30,000 a year electrical bill for his home in Nashville, TN.  RIDICULOUS!

See the article here.

 

This and that… Thursday, February 22, 2007

Filed under: Rants & Raves — jen @ 10:17 am

A few things on the brain this morning. 

Britney Spears…..wtf is up with this chic.  Makes you wonder if the media is blowing things out of whack.  Yes, she is a bit crazy lately, but wouldn’t you be if the papparazzi was on your ass all day long?  Every second of every day, you can go online and see where she is and what she is doing, poor thing.  I feel bad for her. 

Anna Nicole Smith…..been watching the court hearings online and it has been interesting to say the least.  My 2 cents.. let her be buried in the Bahamas with her son.  F*** the Mom, it has been public record for I don’t know how many years that Anna hated her.  BUTT OUT VIRGIE!  Money hungry natch!

Grey’s Anatomy…..will Meredith die tonight or what?  I think not, since the show is named after her character, but it sure is making for some good television!  Love it.

Netflix…..we have been with Blockbuster for a whle now on their unlimited rental plan.  Been real nice but when I found out that I was paying $27.00 a month when I didn’t have to, I cancelled it right away.  Right now, we are trying out the free trail with Netflix and I was surprised that the first shipment actually got here in one day, how rad is that.  Our plan is to do this free trial, then the Blockbuster Total Access free trial, then just stick with them.  That way we don’t have to only rely on the mail delivery, and we can go into the store if we want to.  Anyone try out either of these plans?

My weight…..so I have been steady on my weight, I can’t seem to get under 139-140 though.  My 8’s are very lose and the next range in pants that I have are 5’s, so this in between shit sucks.  I need to step things up a notch and start working out.  Spring is right around the corner, so no more “it’s too cold” excuses.  I am going to look into joining a running group I think.  Good way to meet some people and get a good workout in too.

 

Morning Wednesday, February 21, 2007

Filed under: Rants & Raves — jen @ 10:09 am

Good morning!  Nice weekend having the hubby home.  We were lazy for the most part, but I got some stuff done too.  Got caught up on most of our shows as well, I love my Tivo.  Although, I have been a little disapointed in LOST, not sure why, just not getting into it like before.  So many loose ends to tie up and then they throw more shit into the mix.  **CONFUSED**

On another note…..I am so frickin excited!!!!  We have been working on paying off debt since we moved here.  Still a couple years to go, but I can tell it is totally working.  My credit score jumped from a 580 to 707 in less than a year!!  How rad is that??????  And we have a re-finance on our house coming up, so I hope this helps in the monthly payment department, oh and interest rate.  I will never get rid of my membership with Triple Advantage credit monitoring.  It’s only $12.95 a month and you can get as many credit reports as you want and they let you know if anything changes on your report, good or bad.  Love it!  Did you know that YOU getting your own credit report DOES NOT affect your credit score and inquiries?  I didn’t find this out until a couple years ago.  I would neglect to get a copy of it just because I thought it was an inquiry, but nope, not the case.

ok, enough babbling this morning, asta.

 

Frickin Molly!! Friday, February 16, 2007

Filed under: Rants & Raves — jen @ 10:46 am

So I am doing my usual routine this morning, bending over the sink and brushing my pearly whites.  I had just gotten out of the shower and had my robe on.  Suddenly I feel this sharp pain in multiple places on my back and realized it was frickin Molly on my back!  Wtf!  I yelled, she dug in even more before falling to the floor and running under the bed where I never saw her again.  Ouchies, my back hurts.

 

blah Thursday, February 15, 2007

blah, sick today, cramps, PMS, blah.  It is snowing outside though, too bad I was already at work. Brutally cold out, feels like 12 degrees.

Eat peanut butter?  Peter Pan and Value Brand is contaminated.  Product codes that start with 2111, get it off the shelf.  ick.

Yippee!! Wednesday, February 14, 2007

Dave got home yesterday, so good to see him and touch him and most of all be touched!  Been a while.  I didn’t however like that I was up all night with his snoring.  How pleasant it was for him being gone in that case only.  haha. 

Rob drives out today, be safe Rob!

Happy Valentine’s Day!  Short post today.

 

Good Weekend Monday, February 12, 2007

Filed under: Rants & Raves — jen @ 10:08 am

Nice and productive weekend I had, but a better week coming up as the hubby gets home tomorrow night (I hope).  I re-did a majority of product pictures at Jenny’s Bead Factory plus took pictures of over 40 new items that I need to get added.  I borrowed Rob’s camera since Dave took mine and it rocks I tell you what.  Very good pictures, will have to invest in a real nice one one day.  Mine doesn’t suck, but just isn’t as good.  Did I happen to mention Rob is going back to Cali?  Yes, our time has come to an end and sucks, best roommate I have ever had!! 

Jamming to some Staind this morning.  Rainy day here in Memphis, but not nearly as cold as it has been.  In the 50’s, but it won’t last long, couple more days and into the 30’s again.  burrr. 

Since the hubby should be home for Valentine’s day, I am planning a nice dinner for him.  Not sure what yet, but I am thinking London broil with sautéed mushrooms, either cream of asparagus soup or split pea soup and a potato dish of some sort….oooo and maybe chocolate cake for dessert.  Yum, me hungry.

Back to work, asta.

 

Fun Night Friday, February 9, 2007

Filed under: Rants & Raves — jen @ 9:57 am

I had a frickin blast tonight.  There was a dealers meeting with one of our vendors from work.  Each year they throw a thank you dinner party for all their customers.  I was really nervous going because I didn’t know anyone but my boss, and while he was 45 minutes late, I decided to mingle instead of standing there looking like an idiot.  Met this cool chic Natalie and can’t wait for us to get together at a later date, but what was the most fun was visiting with the chef of the party, Robert Hayes is his name.  He said that he has worked with Emeril, Bobby Flay, etc.  He told me about going to cooking school in Paris and showed me around the place and food, it was pretty darned cook, I want to be a chef when I grow up.  hehe

 

Burrrrr….

Damn it’s cold, the feels like temp is 21 degrees right now, it’s 5am and been up since 4:30.  Decided to move my downstairs t-stat to 63 and upstairs to 55, so if I get another huge bill next month, I am going to see an attorney and starting a boycott.  Mark my words!  Also heading back to Wal-mart to return these heaters, they suck ass, guess I may have to spend a little more money for some good ones.  buurrrrrrr (((((shivers)))))

Been reading my regular gossip sites out there.  I can’t believe how many mean people are out there talking shit about Anna Nicole.  Chic is dead, leave her alone and let her rest in peace.

Might as well get up and go into work early.  Happy Friday!

 

Back from Wal-Mart Thursday, February 8, 2007

Filed under: Rants & Raves — jen @ 8:14 pm

Just got back from Wal-mart.  Bought two, energy saving, heater fans.  One for the living room, one for the bedroom and the one I have already will be up in my office.  Dave bought one while in South Carolina, so when he gets home, that can be the……..uummmm……I dunno, bathroom, workshop or sex room, we will figure it out.  lol.  Yes, we have a sex room, I didn’t tell you about that?  It’s kinky.

k, Rob is cooking his famous meatballs, scalloped potatoes and corn.  Better get downstairs before he grubs it all.  L8tr!
