Let the Games Begin...

On Monday I went and did something that I think just about everyone I know has told me to do for the last 5 years. I went and signed my retainer to begin custody procedures for PrincessNic.

I am freakin' out!

I have this awful feeling that this is going to get really ugly. I am anticipating some heavy babymama drama...

The Sun doesn't give the light to the moon expecting the moon's going to owe it one...

Say Awww....

Today I took PrincessNic to the... dentist (que the ominous music).

She was crazy nervous! But as soon as she got in there she was a champ. As a future Drama Queen she recognizes the importance of good dental hygiene.

The dentist only found one thing... a small cavity. This is odd because Babymama told me it was "silly" to take her to the dentist because she has taken her a few months back. But... get this... she was surprised to here she had a cavity. Moral of the story... (I tried to think of something witty and smug but I'll I could come up with was...) Don't Lie.

Confess, come and get it all off your chest

Bitter Taste...

Last week something happened to me that I don't think has ever happened before... I failed something. I can't think of a single thing that I have failed at... until this. Talk about a kick to the stomach.

Well the good news is that I get a second try at it. I guess I better get to studying huh?

In other news, I got an interesting email the other day. It has my interested peaked.

Thought of the Day
I know that I've got issues but you're pretty messed up too.

Bitch Fight

Oh what night... Thought I would enjoy a nice relaxing evening with the neighbors. We all started the night at O'Leavers. Nice place... if you don't mind the open sewage pipe where (I hope) a toilet once stood but is now (oddly) missing.



So, for some strange reason everyone wanted to move on to another bar. Everyone decided on Connections (I was not included in everyone... apparently). It was nice, relaxed, and laid back... until one girl started beating the shit out of this other girl. One of the girls ended cutting open her forehead and was bleeding all over the place... 6 cops were called... needless to say it was an exciting night.

Thought of the Day
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky.

The Breaking Point...

There are times when I don't know why I go get PrincessNic from Babymama's. Tonight is one of those nights. She misses Babymama so much that she cries almost immediately after we leave. She is now crying in her room because at Babymama's she sleeps with her every night and here she sleeps alone. How can I compete... she's 4 1/2... who at that age wouldn't want to sleep with mom or dad every night? I want to cry with her... I want to cry and tell her I am sorry... I am sorry she misses her mom so much that she is driven to tears...

I hope some day you'll understand...

Where is the light at the end of my tunnel?

Shoot Me...

I am so sick of ISO-lation-DISC. I am tired of MooseKnuckle's bull shit (or is that Moose shit - which must be way more than a mere bull's shit - but anyway...). I am tired of the notion that no one works unless BK cracks the whip. I have an idea... how about cracking the whip on the one person who really doesn't do any work... Genius!

I am coming up on 2 years... I have been in my position longer than any of my predecessors. I am beginning to understand why.

Thought of the Day
Be careful what you wish for cuz you just might get it...

Halloween-ed

After helping PrincessNic gather quite the haul of candy from the rich Dundee neighbors KCGirl and I decided to paint the town with the Lebanese.

The Nerd

It was a good time. I've never really been a big Halloween person. I just don't really understand the holiday.

Stone-ed

For the past two months this Drama Queen has been plagued by a menacing demon. This abomination strikes without warning... comes at any hour of the day... wreaks havoc upon my life... and for only being 3 mm in size has been the biggest (and most expensive) pain in my ass (or is it a bit higher)!

I have... a kidney stone.

Thought of the Day
Out damn spot...

Let It Rain...

I don't have anything profound to say today (do I ever?)...

But I do want to say that the weather is not being very cooperative. I am supposed to be running my first tournament as DOC this weekend. But it appears as if Mother Nature has decided it would be a fantastic time to have a little rain shower (take lasts for 3 days).

Thought of the Day
I knew you when
I loved you then
The summer's young and helpless.

And Then There Was One...

So today my assistant at work got the axe. And just when things were starting to go so well.

It was a long time coming... apparently some people don't understand how to keep their negative thoughts private.

Thought of the Day
Where ever will the road take me...

Out of Hiding

I know it has been a while... let's just say I have been on a "drama" vacation.

So what jarred this Drama Queen back to the "real" world? A wicked crazy dream...

It started with BestFriend and others helping me move into a new apartment. I was thanking them helping me out. So they drove off and I walked up the stairs into my new place and you'll never guess who my new roommate was... Chrissy (Hello Past? Where the hell did you come from?) But even stranger than that... her ex-boyfriend was living with us. So anyway... we were unpacking and PrincessNic wanted to go and play with her new neighbors so she left. After awhile, I went to look for PrincessNic and there was this huge room full of kids watching some sort of children's show. Unfortunately, I couldn't find PrincessNic. So I'm freaking out. I'm going around this room looking for her but I couldn't bring myself to yell her name. I thought all the other parents would think so poorly of my since I had lost my kid! So I (quietly) search the room and still can't find her. So, in desperation, I go back to our apartment and there she is with Chrissy and they are as calm as can be.

Is that weird or what...

I've burnt every bridge I've ever built.

New Cubes!

Christmas came early (or late?) at ISO-lation-DISC. We got new cubicles! I am sure this was a tough decision for AK and BK. This money could have been used on so many other things... like fattening their bank accounts.

Here is my old cube... Nice huh?!

Here was my temporary "cube" during construction... Real nice huh?!

Here is my new cube (prior to moving in). Notice the sliding "glass" door. This is in case I want to have some privacy in my cubical... Real real nice huh?!

Thought of the Day

The Cubical is the modern dungeon.

Super Tuesday

Today was my one year aniversery at ISO-lation-DISC. I hope to holy hell that the next year is a little smoother than the last.

My Favourite Blonde

PrincessNic starts gymnastics tomorrow. She seems very excited! Babymama keeps telling me I could be around more, do more, and that I am so lucky. She really knows how to get under my skin. Then the sucker punch came from KCGirl. She got mad because I didn't share what Babymama said to me. Do you ever just not want to talk about something? It will just pass, right? (Sigh)

Thought of the Day

Heavy is the head that wears the crown.

Pure & True

PrincessNic had her first soccer practice last week. She was... very enthusiastic... I think I was sick of soccer by the end of the night.

"On Your Toes"

KCGirl and I also looked at a new place this weekend. I have to admit that I am nervous about the whole ordeal. My last experiment with "co-habitation" ended... in drama (gasp).

Oh, by the way... I am totally addicted to iTunes. How on earth did I live before? And why didn't you mofo's tell me to get with it!

Two households both alike in dignity...

Monday Night Raw

Oh Mondays! How I loathe thee!

I can't decide if I would like use my vacation days to take every Monday off or Fridays.

Tough choice!

Thought of the Day
Is the "X" a kiss and the "O" a hug or vice-versa?

Take Me Away

Hello 2008...
What should I say?

Work is crazy! They are hiring another full-time person. I don't really know how to take this. I can't do the job well enough by myself? Or just believe them when they say that they think it is just too much for one person. I've asked how our responsibilities will be divided up but I can't really get a straight answer. In response, I've started putting my resume out there. I've had two companies call me back (what a good feeling!). I don't really want to change jobs but it would be nice to get better benefits. Maybe I could even get PricenessNic insurance (what a concept)...

Please don't stop the music...

The Good... Bad... and Ugly...

Today is the last day of 2007. What a wild ride this year has been! I have been through just about everything in the last 52 weeks. Last year I had a great relaxing evening at home. This year I anticipate a bit more... drunkeness (is that even a word?)

The Good: I sound Super-Sappy but I have found someone!
The Bad: I think BestFriend and I are more distant than ever. I guess it is just a natural progression of life.
The Ugly: I hurt someone I cared for a lot.

Thought of the Day:
Goodbye 2007... Hello 2008...

The 24 1/2 Century!

I can no longer say I am the last person on the face of this earth that doesn't have an Ipod. (Thanks Dad!)

I hope all of you had a great long holiday weekend! I know I did!
I did not want to go to work to this morning. I just wanted to roll over and find my nook.

Thought of the Day
I can't remember to forget you...

Holiday Spirit

I am so excited for the future. I don't know if this drama queen has ever said that before. I am actually looking forward to "the next step".

Is it May yet?

Thought of the Day
Please come home for Christmas...

One Year Later...

As I was driving to work this morning I got to thinking... (dangerous I know...)
This time last year I had just been "let go" from Inatek. What a roller-coaster of a year!
I can't believe all the changes that have taken place this year.

I wonder if every year will be so... drama-full.

Thought of the Day
No whats...
