Something borrowed.

OK, so my brother told me a few months ago about his engagement to his girl friend. Needless to say I wasn't exactly super excited or jumping up and down. I mean I am happy for him but she wouldn't be my pick, if you know what I mean. She can be quite nice and extremely forgiving (almost to a fault) but let's face it, she has shit for brains.
A few weeks ago, my mother and I had plans to go up to Fargo and do a little shopping. I called my mom and asked if we should invite her along to feel "welcomed". It went surprisingly well. We got along swimmingly and I helped her pick out a wedding dress. It's beautiful and black. This will be her third marriage after all.
So after reading this story I just about died laughing. If this happens at my brothers wedding, I certainly hope I am not the one that will be the giver or taker of any blows. If it does happen and the "bride" gets a bruise, at least she will have something that's blue.

the Hell...

1. I have way too much gray hair for a girl my age and I can't financially keep up with it.
2. Ford Excursions are way too gawd damned big to be on the road.
3. I almost lost it at work today when a.)A program restore deleted 3 months of work and then b.)One of my bosses gives me a "project" to do in the middle of the catastrophe and says he needs it done today.

I swear I wanted to bite his hand but you know what they say bout that.

What a month

So many thing have happened since I have last written anything. I think I may have to bullet this.

• Quinn and I went to see Eric Clapton in concert. Fantastic. The music rocked!! The seats on the other did not. We could see the stage just fine but, they were right next to the isle at the top off the stairs going out to the hall. So all the people going out and coming back with their beers was quite distracting. Then to top it off I looked and Quinn and said, OMG What the fuck is that rancid smell??? Did someone puke?? Sure as the sun rises in the east, someone let loose about 10 feet behind me in the hall. Then to make it worse, there was a drunk couple that fell in it and smeared it around themselves...EEwwwwww
• My bean has started gymnastics. She loves it and I hope to get her in more sessions this summer.
• We received Jon's report card in the mail. People, my son is a pure genius. Can you say straight A's. I can only hope that he continues to do this well and knows that I am more proud of him than anything. Now if I can just figure how to get through to him with out getting into an argument or yelling match, or get him interested in anything besides his gaming.
• I got my second tattoo last month. pictures are in flickr, look if you like.
• Easter went as expected. Now I am not a religious person, far from it. So I celebrate the Easter bunny and Peter Rabbit part of it. My husband told bean about the Jesus thing, I just ignore it. We went to his Grandmothers house. She made a turkey dinner. I love his grandma, she is a big sweetheart but she is becoming forgetful. His mom and her boyfriend were there also. Now his mom is the nicest, most giving, caring, loving woman you could ever meet. Her boyfriend on the other hand...he is so fucking stupid that you could give him a piece of paper that had please turn over written on both sides and you could keep him busy for hours. As usual, he started in with shit he doesn't know all the facts about and it turned into an argument. I feared this. I said nothing to him for the first few hours but I could no longer hold my tongue. It was quite interesting.
• Quinn ordered us a new bed. It shall be delivered next week. I am so stoked!!! One problem...it's a King and we have nothing but queen stuff. Up side to the problem...I get to go shopping.
• Work has been going swimmingly, so nothing to complain much about there. I do have a my yearly evaluation coming up. I am interested in hearing what they have to say.
• My brother informed me upon his returning home from Mexico, that he proposed to his girlfriend. I am not happy or excited about it one bit. I don't trust her farther than I can throw her and she is not the brightest bulb in the pack. oh well. It will be his first marriage, her third.

That's about it for now. Spring was here for a few days but left us again. The flicker birds, killdeers, and robins were here too but I haven't seen any in a few days.

My hands are freaking cold.
