The differences between men & women
1.NAMES
If Laurie, Linda, Elizabeth and Barbara go out for lunch, they will call each other Laurie, Linda, Elizabeth and Barbara.
If Mark, Chris, Eric and Tom go out, they will affectionately refer to each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla, Peanut-Head and Scrappy.
2.EATING OUT
When the bill arrives, Mark, Chris, Eric and Tom will each throw in a $20 , even though it’s only for $32.50. None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want change back.
When the women get their bill, out come the pocket calculators.
3.MONEY
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn’t need, but it’s on sale.
4.BATHROOMS
A man has five items in his bathroom: a toothbrush, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, and a towel from the Marriott.
The average number of items in the typical woman’s bathroom is 337. A man would not be able to identify most of these items.
5.ARGUMENTS
A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that… is the beginning of a new argument.
6.CATS
Women love cats.
Men say they love cats, but when women aren’t looking, men kick cats.
7.FUTURE</ I>
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
8.SUCCESS
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
9.MARRIAGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn’t.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won’t change < /I>, and she does.
10.DRESSING UP
A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the garbage, answer the phone, read a book, and get the mail.
A man will dress up for weddings and funerals.
11.NATURAL
Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed.
Women somehow deteriorate during the night.
12.OFFSPRING
Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favorite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.
A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house
Tuesday is OFFICIALLY the New Monday!
Ok I have to admit, I’ve never ever been one for Monday’s they are always the hardest after a weekend of sleeping in and having to get up and go to work or school or even both! Which I never get to sleep in anymore since I work every day BUT Sunday! But since starting this semester of school I’ve come to realize Tuesday to me is the new Monday! I offically HATE Tuesday’s with a purple passion! I mean granted I still have to get up and do things and go to work on Monday’s but Tuesdays are just horrible!
Take this morning for instance…. I get up at 6:30AM go downstairs to have my bowl of cereal (I’m tellin you what I can’t wait to get rid of all of this cereal I’ve been working on it for a while now! I need something new sorry side tracked) and find that there werent any clean spoons! Great!! Now what?! So I look in the dishwasher and find a spoon and hand wash it which takes like 2 minutes out of my regular morning routine and sets me off completely! So I have to run around getting ready, the only thing good I do for myself to save myself time is to pack my lunch and book bag the night before so all I have to do is grab it. Thank God for that! I get out of the house at about 5 til 7 and find out that they have closed down the gas station close to my house so I have to go down to the next one which is fine I like that one too! I have to put fuel injector cleaner in the gas tank which I’ve never done before and spend $35.00 on gas (WTF!? I hate gas prices! But that’s for another day) But I tell ya when I got in the car to start it for the first time I was scared my car was going to explode (I’m not smart about cars I didnt know any better!) The car didnt blow up and I made it to school safely in pouring down rain! Oh yeah forgot to mention the rain didnt I? Yeah it had been tourentual (sp?) down pour since about 3 AM and the streets were flooded and I almost hydroplaned on the way to the gas station! I handled it though! YAY ME!
Anyways! I get to school and I was about 3 minutes later than I normally am and I miss out on my great parking spot that I like that is nice and wide so I can just open my doors as far as I like and everything but it was gone so I had to get in a normal one (darn it!) that wasnt the worst part really I go to my first class we are in there for about 40 minutes (an hour and 15 minute class) and then I just go and sit outside the room for my next class which I had worked really hard trying to get all of my stuff done for last night because the teacher said it would have to be turned in and we all had it done and ready and were all proud of ourselves for having it done and SUPRISE guess what we didnt have to turn it in! We were all needless to say angry! Owell maybe next time! I now have more worksheets to have done Thursday gah! So much school work to do! It’s outrageous!
But now I’m at work and I’ve been since about 1:30 and I dont offically start until 3PM so I was trying to waste time until it was time for me to start my shift and that just dragged on forever! My shift started about an hour ago and I still have 4 more hours! AHH! It is the never ending day I swear! I was going to be good when I came in early and do my Medical Terminology homework but much to my demise I did not complete one single chapter nor did I even crack open the book! I’ll get to it…..eventually!
Anyways I feel like I’m rambling so I’ll stop if you’ve made it to the end of this longggg blog I’m sure you can now see why Tuesdays are now offically my new Mondays!
I hope everyone is having a better Tuesday than I am!
Oh and 6 days until I see my love! YAY!
ok…..
Well I guess no one wanted to play my game or see my house so I’m not going to do either anymore. Owell it was worth a try!
In other news: ONE WEEK UNTIL I GO TO ALABAMA!
Excited cant ya tell?! Yup one week until I go to Alabama for J’s officer graduation ceremony! YAY! We made it through the first part it’s all smooth sailing from here!
I have A LOT to do before I leave! BOO KOOS of school work; laundry and just surviving basically! I really hope I can get all the school work done ugg! I really hate school I just thought I would let everyone know that! Well I just thought I would post something since I hadn’t since Friday!
Sorry I dont have much to talk about! But I hope everyone had a great weekend and has a great week ahead! I’ll look forward to reading all the new blogs you girls have posted!
Who wants to play?
Ok so after reading another blog I just recently found (Cheaper than Therapy go read her you’ll love her!) She has a flicker group who posts pictures of what she wears everyday! I thought that might be fun! So I thought I might ask who wants to do it with me! I thought it might be an interesting way for me to have a picture of myself everyday! So who wants to play along?! I think it will be super fun! We’d just post our pictures on here everyday in our daily post!
Also, I have promised to make a video of my house because a few of you have asked to see it and since it is semi clean right now I’ll make a video tonight after I get home from work so you all can finally see my loverly abode! Trick is it’s going to be password protected because well honestly I dont want everyone in creation seeing my house! So if you are interested leave me a comment on here asking for it & I’ll email you the password! I’m really excited! Oh yeah leave me your email some how!
In other news I’m really proud of myself today! I got up and took a shower and made myself actually look nice (so much for a few hours of work!) but I will definately be taking a few pictures tonight and might post them along with my video tonight! I wish I had the time and energy and wasnt so lazy everyday to make myself look nice! I really feel a lot better about myself when I do!
So I’m going to start the photos of what I wore today with a few people who’s style I emulate……![]()

I also like Jennifer Aniston but I couldnt find a good picture of her!
I need some advice!
Ok I need some of you married girls advice!
I was talking to J. the other night on the phone and he brought up getting married in Feb. while he is home! Well I took that and ran! I began hypothetically joking with my best friend about it and also my mother. They both took it pretty well!
So I began thinking about what I would have to do for this to be possible! I know that really all J. wants is for me to move down there; but honestly I can’t do that without something I would honestly have to pick up my life and leave my family for a year! I just cant do that for a boyfriend who is possibly going no where (which I dont honestly believe that).
But if it does turn out that he was not joking and proposes when he gets home in Feb. the plan in my head would be for me to move down there after this semester is over and stay with him until he comes home! I’d take online classes and only come back for important things like Christmas & anything to do with schooling such as having to go to a conference for radiography!
To me this doesnt seem like a bad deal. But I’m really afraid he was joking about it and I’m just gonna end up disappointed in the end! Which I will be because I know that I want to marry this man more than anything in the world!
We’d just have a simple ceremony in a place like gatlinburg with a couple of friends then have a nice wedding when we came back in June of next year!
Anyways married ladies? Am I crazy?
My Newest Pursuit
Well as I’ve mentioned about a million times before on here I have became seriously interested in photography in the last few months. I researched and researched the find the perfect camera for my budget at the time and also found a book that I thought might help me out and learn a little.
I’ve broken into the book and been playing with the camera for about a week. I’ve also been working with my Paint shop pro program that I bought back in the summer when I was making graphics for myspace users (more specifically military icons and layouts for girls like me to use to support their men) well that has sense fell by the way side and I’ve become more interested in the visual art of photography and editing and minipulating the plain image I’ve taken and to make it into something I see in my mind. Because hey not everything you see in your head is possible with a camera! But with this wonderful program (if only I could afford Photoshop) I can do most of the things I want to do! Plus my camera has a macro setting which I’m kind of obsessed with as you will be able to tell from the photos I’m going to post.
I really dont have any interest in pursuing this any farther than a hobby but I would love to take pictures for my friends and family. If they want some nice pictures I’d be willing to take them, after all how am I going to learn to use people as my subjects without trying right? My family doesnt like to have their picture taken so I mostly will have to use my friends and J. ,he loves to have his picture taken but too bad he’s not around to model for me! But hopefully I can get some when he comes home in a few weeks! Then I can show you all how hott my honey is
lol I’d have to make them in a private post though because I’m kind of all about ananomity here. I want to protect him and there are certain rules I have to follow when posting things about him. All you military girls know what I”m talkin bout the lovely thing we like to call OPSEC (or Operations Security for you civilian people).
Anyways as I was saying….I would love to take some pictures for people. I mean granted I dont have all the fancy equipment that the pros use but, I feel I can acheive just as good as they can! Well maybe…..anyway what do you say want your picture taken by me?!
Here are a few photos I’ve done….enjoy!

Watch this please
Ok now I’m bothered
Alright I filled out a survey this morning while I was being lazy which asked ” have you been bothered today” at first during that point I had not been bothered, but now I”m thinking I should go back and change that answer! Because guess what now I am bothered!
I am an easily bothered person! I come in to work hoping to be able to get some work done and I guess that is just not going to happen! I have this stupid woman in here who doesnt know how to do jack shit on a computer! She used to come in all the time last semester and didnt know how to do anything I’d constantly have to go over and “fix” or “do” something for her! Well guess what!? Now she expects me to do her math homework for her! Guess what lady thats not my job! I’m here to help out people with their computer problems on things such as word or powerpoint I dont do it for them I basically show them how and make them do it themselves! She has prohibited me from being able to get anything done! I have to read a chapter or two in my communications and study for a quiz in Anatomy!
UGG! I guess I’m just in a pissy mood today with all that is going on! If you want to know what I mean by “all that is going on” you can ask me for my password for the post below “a vent” and you can go read about it! If not thats ok too because I just wrote that to make myself feel better and to get it out! But if you really are that interested in reading I’ll give you the password!
Ok I’m done for tonight! Hope everyone is having a better night than I am!
