my swirl of random

1. It's amazing how "time consuming" a part-time job can be, when one day turns into a week, and before you know it you haven't been online in over a month... 2. I seriously have no clue where the month of July went, hell, I didn't even read a single book. 3. There's only two weeks left of Summer vacation for Mini*Me. I'm equally happy and sad about this. 4. My phone continues to be a piece of shit. As I type this fourth item, it is already starting to overheat. Not to mention how long to took for this app to load. 5. I really need to do more writing... 6. Mini*Me and I took a rather scary cab ride today. Actually, I think sketchy was a better word for it! But we made it home in one piece, so I guess that's all that really matters. 7. My tits are peeling.

I just found a twenty in the dryer! Even better, I seriously have NO clue where it came from; the load of laundry contained absolutely nothing with pockets! And here I thought the best part of my day was discovering that the library has American Horror Story.

I really wish there were more natural ways to “control” her mental health. I mean there probably are, but I know it’s not covered by insurance and it seems natural is also code for expensive.

1. Facebook is so obnoxious on days like today. 2. So I totally thought I didn't have any pics of just my father and I, but I found THREE! However, the oldest I am in them is about six months. 3. After having yet another Hobbit marathon this weekend, Mini*Me and I have decided that we are going to learn orc for our summer project!! 4. I made a green smoothie earlier today...and I drank it all and didn't gag even once. 5. Then for lunch I ate half a pizza! 6. Men's beach volleyball is currently on my television, and I can't locate my remote. 7. I still haven't quite recovered form last night's viewing of Fifty Shades of Grey.

I keep forgetting the share to Tumblr option on Instagram! Anyhoo, I actually read part of this today and never knew that "coaches" was a location. Plus now I'm going to have to cancel the Hobbit marathon I had planned on an oil rig next month!

Mini*Me: *death glare*

FINALLY made it to Jurassic World yesterday: 1. It was amazing, although I'm pretty sure we would have been just as impressed without the 3D. 2. Loved the Jurassic Park tie in/throwback. 3. As much as I try to enjoy Bryce Dallas Howard's work I just really can't, and (obviously) this didn't help any. 4. The costume designer and I really need to have a chat about Bryce's wardrobe, especially those sad excuses for power pumps! 5. So I LOVE Vincent D'Onofrio, but he was just painful to watch. 6. And now we wait for the next installment that is supposedly in the works...

Although mine was technically over last night when I finally got all the laundry caught up, including my jerseys! And now we wait...

1. I am officially the mother of a teenager... whatever, I can still pass for 25!! 2. After all my father's bitching, he still paid for everyone's dinner. 3. Somehow I didn't take any pictures of today's festivities... 4. And now my step-mother doesn't know how to work her damn iPhone in order to send me the ones she took. 5. Mini*Me is now loaded, and I am totally making her buy me lunch tomorrow! 6. Speaking of, Jurassic World in 16 hours!! Woo! 7. Would it be wrong to eat most of the last piece of DQ ice cream cake once Mini*Me goes to bed?!?

If one more person bitches about where I'm taking Mini*Me for her birthday dinner I might truly become homicidal!! They were invited, which means they can say no. No one will be forcing them to the restaurant at gun point! AAH! In addition, my step mother just called to ask what she should get my child...I'm glad I had already planned on telling her to give Mini*Me money.

1. This week has been ridiculous! I've either been working, running around to appointments, or trying to get a bit of sleep. 2. Tuesday I went to an orthopedic specialist for my ankle, and because of my crapt insurance, they can't do anything but give me a brace to wear. If it's not any better after six weeks, THEN they can order an MRI. 3. One of my best friends had emergency surgery to remove her gall bladder Wednesday morning, so that has added even more to my plate. 4. Wednesday night's NKOTB concert was awesome!! Even with the whiny, drunk girls behind us. 5. I got a physical Thursday and everything came back great! The doctor referred to me as flawless!! The only "issue" was my good cholesterol was at 38, and they like it to be at least 40! HaHa! So see, you can be a perfectly healthy fattie!!

Yesterday, my B tells me that she's going to get us tickets to NKOTB for Wednesday! WooFuckinHoo! Oh wait, I have to work...so today I figured out someone to switch shifts with. She just replied to my news by saying she still has to see if she can rearrange her work schedule. Above was my response!!

1. I passed my inspection! Woo! 2. Only four more mornings of making sure Mini*Me's butt makes it on the bus!! 3. It's Donut Day! Too bad I have to wait until after work to celebrate. 4. I'm pretty positive working on Friday nights is going to get really old, really fast...but I do have Saturday and Sunday off. 5. Nine days until Jurassic World and Mini*Me turns the big 13...one of these I am WAY more excited about!
