Some people

Okay, so I'm sure everyone knows someone who has everything you want but they aren't happy. I just don't get it! So, that makes me wonder, is there really perfect happiness in the world? I know happiness is what you make of it and everyone has their own idea of happy. But I am sick of hearing people bitch about what a crappy boring life they have when in reality, to me, they have the perfect life. So every time they bitch to me, it's like they are rubbing their perfect life into my face. I know this person doesn't mean to do it and I'm sure they don't think their life is perfect. But, it is!

Who wouldn't want a spouse who loves them more than anything in the world, who looks at them with all the love that they hold for them, so much love it just pours out, even after being together for a super long time, the love is still there, in thoughts, actions, words, all of it. (I know that was a run on sentence, but I don't really care right now, I'm ranting!)

Another thing that bothers me is people that bitch about things they can't control. I know it sounds like that is what I am doing right now, but I'm not bitching......I'm ranting!! What the difference is I'm not sure, but I know to the one person that reads this blog, he just wants me to write something. Since this is what is on my mind right now, this is what you get, SORRY JASON!!

So, in other news.......

I bought my sister tickets to the Lion King in Toledo. She is very excited, me - not so much. I do want to go see it, but I don't really think the tickets are worth $75. I would rather go to two baseball games for that price!

Which by the way, most baseball tickets went on sale today, and I cannot buy any because I don't know what I will be doing come the summer! I really don't like not having a plan. I always have had a plan for my life. While I do have a plan in the back of my mind, I like to think of it as my plan in the bullpen. I don't want to have to move back in with my parents and lose all of my freedom. I won't think about that until the time comes!

I started a new job on Monday. It is just part time, it will only be on Mondays and a few hours at home during the week. But, I am excited, I plan on using the extra money to pay off bills from Shawn (maybe if I can use all of this money to do that, I'll have his bills paid off by 2020!!) I will be doing billing for a computer contracting company. The guy I am working for seems very nice, so that is good! Plus it is close to home (for now), so that is another plus. I will still be home in time to cook a halfway decent meal for Tom and Andrea on Mondays.

Another thing I am very excited about is Relay for Life. It is upon us again so I will be busy with that! I LOVE to be busy, it gives me less time to worry (about things I can control-to a point!) But, then again, do we really control anything? I need to learn to just let things work themselves out- any ideas on how I can do that?

Back to Relay, the theme is Country/Western, not really sure what we are going to do with that, but I hear Chris has some excellent ideas, I need to hear them, it's driving me crazy that I found out about them a week ago, but we haven't had time to discuss them. We are three people short at work this week, so we have not had time to discuss Relay at work.

I am all over today! I do apologize. I have a million thoughts running through my head. I have a lot to say, cause we never can tell when my next post is going to come. Two in one month, you should be ever so proud!

So, my cousin had his baby, a little boy, Ryan Joseph. He is very cute. Everyone around me is having babies, when will it be my turn??? My clock is ticking very loudly, I'm sure you can hear it through the web!

WOW! I think this is the longest blog of my life. I feel like I have been through every emotion in this blog tonight, frustration, anger, envy, joy, excitement, confusion, maybe a little hatred! You would never guess that my life is actually pretty good right now. I don't want to say why, because I will jinx it, and I'm not going to do that (knock on wood).

Alright, I'm getting quite hungry now, and I'm sure your sick of jumping all around. By the way, this is completely normal in the brain of Kristen. That's my secret, my brain is really scattered.... I am thinking about a million things at almost all times of the day. That's what makes me so moody! I think I need to be back on my medication, it seems worse now that I have been off for two and a half months!

Okay, I'm really signing off now, I must eat the rest of my tuna fish sandwich with extra tomatoes from Subway.

Until we meet again.... I wish you health, wealth and happiness!

An interesting few weeks

So, I know I haven't blogged in awhile, but I have been pretty busy, and life is about to get busier, Relay is just around the corner!

So, my dramas started last Wednesday, that cold snowy morning, I went down to my car to go to work. I was planning on being a good girl and bringing my clothes to Goodwill so I left early. I put my purse in my car and started it up. I then walked around the car to get my scraper out, and to my surprise, my door would not open. It was locked, with my keys in the ignition and my car running! How wonderful!

So, I go over to Dunkin' Donuts to use their phone to call into work to tell them that I was going to be late. I then called Ange, and then went out to find the maintenance guy to the apartment complex. I found him, he told me he could get into my car with a metal coat hanger. I told him I didn't have one, he checked his car and came back with a pry bar and a rag ( I then became scared thinking he did this for a living), of course, no coat hanger. So he went to Dunkin' Donuts to find one, no luck, I went to Powerhouse, again no luck! So, the guy from DD comes out five minutes later and I go over to him, he has a handle from a bucket straightened out in his hand. I grab it, and bring it over to Rick. He used it to get my doors unlocked!!!!

Next comes Thursday, I was going to bring Tom brownies at work. So, I came in the house to get the brownies, I threw my keys on the chair and grabbed the brownies, then walked out of the hosue. Right after I shut the door I realized I had left my key to get into the main door in my apartment. Because of the snafoo with the car keys the day before, I separated the car key from the key pad. Attached to the key pad was my apartment key so that I could start my car then lock the doors and come back up to the apartment. OOPS!


Now it's time for Friday. Ange, Sarah (Ange's friend), and I decide to go to the Bier Stube. We are gettin our drink on and Ange is singing. She is on her third song, Sarah and I are on beer number two with two shots each in our system. Next thing we know is someone is at our table telling us that Ange is on the floor. We go over to her and she is crying. She NEVER cries in public. So we try to get her head off the nasty floor and get her to calm down. She tells us she thinks she broke her ankle. Against my advice, she takes her boot off (did I mention she was wearing a mini skirt and hooker boots?). There are two nurses at the bar, they look at her ankle, tell me it is fractured and that we need to go to the ER. So, Sarah and I close our tabs, I go get the car, and some guy carries Ange out to the car.

We get to the ER, explain what happens, obviously they think Ange is drunk, which she is not, so she gets NO pain meds. They take her to x-ray, no fracture just a severe sprain. They discharge her with an ace wrap, an air cast and NO MEDS!!!! Sarah and I feel guilty for that since we were the ones that were laughing like drunken idiots!!

Ange is still gimping around! She's getting better on her crutches in the snow.

My life is finally back to normal (knock on wood). But at least I had something to blog about!

Talk to you after the next round of drama in my life occurs.

Until then try to stay warm!
