OMG YAY

I have the best boyfriend. Ever. No one can tell me differently either. I won't listen. What makes me say this? Remember the flowers he sent me about a week ago that inspired the first HNT Lilies post? Those rock. They're all finally open and smelling great. Tuesday, I got another little something in the mail from my guy. I was puzzled as to what it was as it came in a standard brown box. I checked the return address but got nothing out of that. I knew he was sending me something but I had no clue as to what it could be. I found out Tuesday and O M G y'all!

Okay enough with the dots! Lol.

I give you..............................................

BAT BEAR!

Isn't he fucking adorable? Anyone who knows me and anyone who reads my blog enough KNOWS that I am obsessed with LOVE Batman! Love love love. I also dig stuffed animals but don't happen to advertise that little fact, lol. So when I opened the brown box and saw a box inside from Build-A-Bear Workshop, I was a little on the giddy side. When I opened it up to see a bear dressed up like my love Batman? Oh my gosh, I was just so surprised and happy. That is one of the best gifts I've ever gotten. I just love the cute little devil. Isn't my boyfriend awesome? It's okay if y'all don't think so. I still adore him.

*Happy Sigh* On to the weirdness. =)



1. When your relationships end, are you the instigator of the breakup or the recipient?

I've never been broken up with. Every relationship I've had, I've been the one to end things. Even the casual ones, I have always been the one to break things off.


2. Do you save things from your ex, or get rid of them? If you save them, how? If you trash them, how?

If it's gifts like CD's, DVD's, books or a television... well it would just be silly to trash those things. =D

Jewelry... I got a few bracelets and one necklace from ex-boyfriends and those ended up given back or thrown out in some way.

Pictures and clothing were usually burned or just thrown away. Clothing was usually just shirts that were used by me as sleep shirts that they didn't want back.

Letters, cards and other random things were also burned or just thrown away.


3. Describe your favorite ex?

I only have one ex that I like. We call him Civic. We dated and everything but we were better off as friends and didn't stay together long. We're still friends and talk once or twice every few months. It's funny because I think that my mom thinks he broke my heart and in all reality, I was the one who ended things with him and I was also the one who wasn't the nicest about ending things in the first place. This was such a long time ago though. =)


4. Do you consider a friend's ex off limits?

Usually, yes. I think in certain circumstances, it would be okay. If the friend is more of an acquaintance, sure. If it's a good or close friend, then their ex is off limits.


5. Have you ever had sex with an ex? Why?

Yes. I did with two ex's after we were broken up or after we had been broken up for a while. Why? Not because I wanted them back or because they wanted me back. It wasn't for any emotional reason. It was just sex. Plain and simple. I already knew them and knew I could trust them as opposed to going out and hooking up with a random stranger. It wasn't anything more than just having sex.


6. If you had a choice between spending the rest of your life with your worst ex-boyfriend, or your HS Nemesis, who would you choose?

I have no high school nemesis but for the sake of the question, I'm going to pretend I do. I imagine I would prefer by worst ex honestly. Mainly because I could make his life miserable and probably have fun doing it, if only for a little while. I imagine I would get tired of it after a while and grow bored with him. The nemesis thing would probably be too much of a headache to want to deal with. Plus, I don't actually hate my worst ex. I just don't like him. I don't harbor any real hate or anything for him. I could probably get along with him after I got done having fun being a pest for a while. I doubt if I had this nemesis that it would be so easy.


7. Would you ever create a YouTube video or a website celebrating your exes' flaws?

No. None of them are worth that much of my time or efforts.

Happy Wednesday Y'all! =)

What I Got.

I am skipping TMI Tuesday this week. It's not that they aren't good questions because they are good. They're about romance and being romantic though and I would rather skip playing over posting insanely short, boring answers. I'm not a very romantic girl, at all. Trust me on that, lol.

Last night, I ended up getting off at 12:30 AM instead of 11 am. T-Rex asked me if I'd mind staying so he could send a relatively lazy girl home who was faking being sick to try and go home early. Once she found out she could leave after cleaning and stocking, she perked right up and her illness that had her moaning, groaning and acting like she was about to die disappeared. I don't care. More money for me. =D It was a pretty good night at work. I worked with mostly guys and I tend to be able to relate a little better to males than females. Always have. We had a debate about cars that lasted about an hour. We then got onto talking about football. T-Rex is from Texas. He grew up about fifteen minutes hour from where I lived in Texas. He's been in Ca a little over a year. I had someone on my side while debating sports. ;) We weren't busy. Then we were busy. Then we weren't. Then we were. It came in spurts. Time still went by pretty quickly.

I had something else I wanted to write but now, I don't feel like it. It was something I felt like I might want to get off my mind, sort of to clear my chest in a way. I changed my mind, lol. It's too emotional and I don't want to get all sad and boo-hooey right now. ;)

Don't forget, come play Wednesday Weirdness tomorrow! =D I *think* we're hosting a set of questions contributed by Another Suburban Mom this week so you know they should be good, lol. =D

Happy Tuesday! =)

Working girl.

I've been working my butt off all weekend. Fun eh? I only work 5 pm to 11 pm tonight though. I'm down with a short shift. =) I was off tonight but they called at 1 pm and asked if I wanted to pick up a shift tonight. The annoying girl that I want to throttle called in so I'm working for her tonight. Ok, so there are multiple annoying girls I want to throttle. This one, oh my gosh. I've NEVER met a more lazy, messy, whiny, obnoxious, stupid bitch in my life. She makes messes, doesn't clean them up. Doesn't put enough ingredients in a drink? Finds some way to make it look right without actually fixing it. Did I mention she doesn't clean messes up? She stands around and walks around talking. She also has to know everything being said. I said something to another girl and this bitch comes up and says, "What did you say?" I said, for probably the tenth time, "I wasn't talking to you." She's constantly doing that. You cannot say something in her hearing range without her turning around and wanting to know who said what.

"What did you say?"

"What did he say?"

"What was she talking about?"

"What was so funny?"

"What are you laughing about?"

"What was he saying to you?"

"What were you guys talking about?"

I'm like... OMG, SHUT THE FUCK UP. If you were meant to know, they would be telling you and not talking to the person they are talking to. Or at least they would be including you into the conversation as well. It drives me nuts.

Did I mention messy? I really hate that. That is a hardcore pet peeve of mine at work. If you make a mess, clean that shit up. Spilled a drink? Clean it up! Got a little crazy blending something up and splatter crap all over the counter and blender? CLEAN IT UP!

You also can't say anything that she won't chime in on about how she is worse off. If she hears it being said or if you're willing to repeat for her.

Guy: "Man, I'm so tired. I can't wait for my shift to end tonight so I can go home, shower and pass out."

Her: "Yeah well I only got 1 hour of sleep last night and I'm working longer than you and my feet hurt because I dropped a box on them and my life sucks because my sister makes my life hell so I win so you can just stop complaining."

She does that all the time too. No matter what it is, she has it worse or she's in a lousier position in whatever it is. I think my blog name for her is going to be Mrs. Ren. Yes, Ren and Stimpy. Lol. =) I'm mean.

Hmm what else to say? I have nothing. I worked all weekend. Before work, it was exercise and do laundry. Also run errands. Nothing exciting at all honestly, lol.

Oh! There is a girl from work who thinks El Salvador is in Mexico. She was trying to insult a guy we have who is Salvadorian. She asked him if he was from Mexico why couldn't he speak spanish? He informed her he was born in California and that his mother was born in El Salvador. She piped back with, "It doesn't matter what city she was born in, it's still Mexico!" I was laughing. I laughed even more once he told her it wasn't a city in Mexico and she started to argue back with him, lol. Fun times.

I'm off Tuesday and Wednesday. I'm going jogging and then swimming first thing on Tuesday. I haven't been able to hit the pool in a little over a week. Being sick for quite a few days and then starting work ruined my swimming schedule I had going, lol.

Right now, I'm blogging while I wait for my laundry to finish in the wash so it can go into the dryer. I need clean pants for work tonight, lol. I'm watching The Breakfast Club right now too. I *love* this movie. It's one of my favorites. The first time I watched it with my mom, I was maybe 12 and I protested it as she was putting it in because it just sounded so lame. I watched it anyway and ended up loving it.

That's all for today. Have a great Monday y'all! =)

Happy Birthday darling!

Every day is someone's birthday. Among all the people who have a birthday today, one of my favorite ladies out here, Kiki over at Who's That Kiki , is celebrating her birthday today. She's an awesome, cool, funny, sweet, interesting chick.

Go on over to her blog and tell that awesome woman Happy Birthday would ya? =D

I will be the death of you... =D

I was talking with a friend of mine, we'll call him Fangs, Thursday night and we got on the subject of love. He was telling me that his girlfriend of over six months told him about a week ago that she wants to be with another guy sexually but she wants to maintain her relationship with Fangs. He's bisexual but she doesn't want a threesome. She just wants to do this other guy on the side. Fangs isn't the type to do an open relationship like that. He believes no matter what the gender of the person he's in a relationship with, it needs to be monogamous. She doesn't want a relationship with this other guy, she just wants to fuck him for a while and then be done with it. Fangs isn't okay with that. It doesn't make him a prude in my eyes. His girlfriend however says he's being a prude and unfair to her. She's been pushing it, asking him at least twice a day every day since she talked to him about it why he won't be fine with it. Along with other things she's said. I asked him if she realized it was unfair of her to push this and be rude (read: a bitch) about it when he's clearly told her that he isn't okay with it and doesn't want it happening. He said he told her something similar but that she still reasoned he was the one being unfair. That he was repressing her sexuality and only saying no to be mean. That she would allow him to fuck someone else if he wanted to. He asked me if I thought she would be likely to cheat on him if he didn't cave in. I asked him if he would be bitter and angry about it if he did give in and tell her to go for it. He said he probably would. I told him I didn't know if she would cheat or not. Only she could answer that. He stopped talking with me after about another hour of talking and went to talk with her about some other things.

I'm not against having an open relationship, threesomes or things like that. To each their own you know? I'd be a bit of a hypocrite to bash such things based on my own personal history and what not. ;) Lol. I think if it's not something your partner is okay with, it's not cool to push them on it. That's something you should talk about and figure out if you're going to be compatible over or not. Relationships are complicated and hard enough work as it is.

An hour later, he texted me to ask if I was busy and if I could get online to talk. Basically, she's going to do it anyway. According to her. She doesn't see why it's a big deal. It's just sex. She isn't emotionally cheating on him. She doesn't have feelings for this other guy. Just lust and the want to screw him senseless "five or ten times" and then be done. If she's going to do it anyway and he's going to be hurt by it, I asked if he would stay with her or not. He said he wasn't sure. He cares about her a lot and said he felt like he was really falling for her but if this was going to be something that happened with her, he might as well end it now and save himself from future grief, arguments and heartache.

I agreed with him ending it. If he's not going to be able to handle it, he should end it now before he develops deeper feelings for her. He'll only end up more hurt in the end. If she's going to do it anyway, in my opinion, it's disregarding his feelings which is pretty rude, uncaring and pretty damn selfish of her. It's not something he is ever going to be okay with and that's fine. It's nice to see that some people still believe in being loyal to one person, that some people still believe in having a monogamous relationship.

I don't know many couples who are monogamous anymore. Real life and in the blogger world, I know more couples who have some form of an open relationship or more where one or both parties are cheating on the other as opposed to couples who are committed, loyal and monogamous.


Anyway.... I start the job tonight. I work 5 pm to 2 am all weekend. Unless the schedule changes but hopefully it doesn't. I'm damn broke and need to start making money again. I might even meet some cool people out here to hang out with. Not that anyone will replace any of my awesome friends but, it wouldn't hurt to have a person or two to chill with while I'm living out here.

I started reading "Blood Noir" by Laurell K. Hamilton last night. I've had it over a month, had it since it came out actually but I've been a *little* bit too busy to get to it until now. I'm having a bit of an issue getting in to the beginning of the book. It's not bad, it's good, very good. There is the problem. That's probably a little confusing but I'd prefer to not expound upon that further. ;)

I need to find somewhere to jog. The roads around here are too congested and also lacking in a sidewalk. I'm not jogging in dirt and grass and hurdling fences, sorry, lol. I found a place that's five minutes from my new job though. A fitness center. It's $99 for a three month trial. I'm thinking about checking that place out. I'd have to go during the day, probably before work though and I'm not sure I want to do that. A good work out followed by an 8 to 10 hour shift where I will be on my feet almost constantly? Meh. We'll see. There are two other places I want to look in to. One is a little more expensive but they're open 24 hours a day which would work better given that I'll be working until midnight and later. I'd prefer to get off work and then work out. It's a twenty minute drive to work so I don't want to drive to work out early in the day, go home, drive back for work and then drive home. *Sigh* I'll get something figured out. =D First, I need the money before I can join anywhere, lol. I doubt my charm will be sufficient for payment.

I want to try archery. I have no idea why. It's just something I always thought would be cool to try at least once. I don't see where it would be particularly useful as I don't hunt and would get in trouble for shooting random, obnoxious asshole with the arrows just because they were annoying or pissing me off. So, I don't have much use for learning to do it other than I want to. It might be fun and also might be relaxing. If not, oh well.

By the way, is hockey season back yet?..... No? Fuck. =( Lol.

Have a great weekend y'all!!!

HNT: Lilies

Monique over at Escape Hatch gifted me with this bloggy award.

Pretty nice huh?

So I'm going to bestow it upon JeannieGrrl, KBear, Weekends Off, Another Suburban Mom, Masquerade, Rage, Pluff, Fairy Flutters, Here I Smile and Samantha. Why? I have no reason. They were picked at random my by pointer courtesy of my blog roll. I thought about picking people on my own but there's no fun in that. People can't get their feelings hurt if I pick a bunch of people at random. I scroll up and down without looking and stop, whomever I land on, I picked. Easy easy. Pluff, this one is for you buddy. It's a little less... girly looking, lol.

My guy sent me flowers. See this post for more on that. I decided to use them to snap a few pictures for HNT. I took plenty with these lovely flowers so you'll be seeing more of them. =) I really prefer the main picture on display over the click this week. I was really happy with how the main one turned out. I'm rarely pleased with my own pictures so that's something for me, lol. I'll try to make it around but the internet situation that I explained in Tuesday's post isn't any better than it has been, lol.

Happy
Thursday!

Today, I'm smiling. =D

I've returned to make a second post. The Wednesday Weirdness post is below this one.

I lived in Texas up until around 20 days ago when I moved to California. My boyfriend stayed in Texas. Read about that here if you haven't.

I was awakened early in the AM to receive a long box from Fed Ex. My dad woke me up telling me that someone had sent me flowers and to wake up so I could open the box. It took me a few moments but I got up and opened them. These are what I got.



Those lovely flowers arrived from Pro Flowers and the thing I love about it is they always come unopened. They start opening usually a couple hours after you get them in water and by the next day, most of them will be open partially. My awesome boyfriend sent me these flowers. I'm not a flowers kind of girl really. I don't care for roses and most other flowers. I love Lilies. It's more the gesture behind it that gets me. I forget about them for the most part after they're in a vase. Until someone comments on them anyway, lol. Or if I happen to look up and see them, remember and grin. It's just a very sweet thing to do, especially when there's no occasion accompanying them. Just because gifts rock.
