Second worst day ever this week. I was scheduled to train the same doofus .. on a job he's been working for over 8 months. YAY

Just so you all know ... today I have to work ... then I'm off Tuesday (my BIRFDAY ... YAY for birthday monies), I have an 8 hour presentation to make Wednesday, and I'm going to try to get Thursday off ... I may try to get off on Thursday too. Girl toys RAWK!

I'm THAT fookin frustrated today!!! I'm tired, I'm bitchy ... I'm PMT'ing ... or PMS'ing or whatev!!! I'm AWESOME! I'm going to do all the other normal stuff and stop ranting about my day. I'll edit ... really ... If I'm forced to work again ... I'll rant or cry ... I forgot my book today.

I'm all out of sorts.

Here's a funny for ya'll anyway ... because regardless of my day ... YOU guys RAWK!!!

HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY?

(written by kids)

You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming.

-- Alan, age 10

No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with.

-- Kristen, age 10

WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?

Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then.

-- Camille, age 10

HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED?

You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids.

-- Derrick, age 8

WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MOM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON?

Both don't want any more kids.

-- Lori, age 8

WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE?

Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough

-- Lynnette, age 8 (isn't she a treasure)

On the first date, they just tell each other lies and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date.

-- Martin, age 10

WHAT WOULD YOU DO ON A FIRST DATE THAT WAS TURNING SOUR?

I'd run home and play dead. The next day I would call all the newspapers and make sure they wrote about me in all the dead columns.

-- Craig, age 9

WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?

When they're rich.

-- Pam, age 7

The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess with that.

- - Curt, age 7

The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them. It's the right thing to do.

-- Howard, age 8

IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?

It's better for girls to be single! But not for boys. Boys need some one to clean up after them.

-- Anita, age 9 (bless you child)

HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN'T GET MARRIED?

There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there?

-- Kelvin, age 8

And the #1 Favorite is.......

HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK?

Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a dump truck.

-- Ricky, age 10

ஜ~§Poem Of The Day§~ஜ

The Owl and the Pussy-Cat

THE Owl and the Pussy-Cat went to sea
In a beautiful pea-green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
Wrapped up in a five pound-note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
And sang to a small guitar,
'O lovely Pussy! O Pussy, my love,
What a beautiful Pussy you are,
You are,
You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are.'

Pussy said to the Owl, 'You elegant fowl,
How charmingly sweet you sing.
O let us be married, too long have we tarried,
But what shall we do for a ring?'
They sailed away for a year and a day,
To the land where the Bong-tree grows,
And there in the wood a Piggy-wig stood,
With a ring in the end of his nose,
His nose,
His nose!
With a ring in the end of his nose.

'Dear Pig, are you willing, to sell for one shilling
Your ring?' Said the Piggy, 'I will.'
So they took it away, and were married next day,
By the Turkey who lives on the hill.
They dined on mince, and slices of quince,
Which they ate with a runcible spoon;
And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,
They danced by the light of the moon,
The moon,
The moon!
They danced by the light of the moon.

Edward Lear

ஜ~§Recipe of the Day§~ஜ

Surry's Goulash ... AYE ... that's right ... my OWN personal and super easy recipe. Kid friendly ... Mother approved.





Ingredients:
2lbs Hamburger
2 1/2 cups elbow noodles
1 Medium onion
1 family sized can of tomato juice. (to control your own sodium get the low sodium can and salt and pepper to taste)
1 pinch to 1 dash of cayenne pepper (because it's good for you and I like a KICK to my food *grins*)(oh and this is OPTIONAL!!!)

Insert mashed potatoes here or rice. (I assume you all know how to pick up the box of instant taters ... right?)

(I like some fritos in my goulash too, I'm strange like that)

Preparation:
Brown and crumble hamburger in pan with diced onion

Cook pasta (really if you don't know how by now ... I'm going to have to call you names, really nasty ones, it's pasta for crying out loud!)

Drain pasta and return to pot, add hamburger/onion mixture, add the whole can of tomato juice.

Let mixture simmer on stove on med-low heat to combine flavors. Stir periodically to keep from sticking to the pot. (We're not making pot stickers here folks!)

Serve over Rice or Mashed Potatoes.

Brightest Blessings,
