Sweet Victory

Sunday has come and gone again, but this time the Dallas Cowboys have left behind that sweet beautiful victory over Houston! Honestly they could lose all the other games of the season and it wouldn't have been as bad as if they had lost yesterday, with all the shit talkin that Houstonians were talkin!!! Ok so that is an exaggeration....I will still be pissed if they lose...... Meanwhile my husband (he's a Bears fan *shudder*) is trying to corrupt our daughter and my nieces and nephews by getting them to run around the house saying Da Bears....He might meet a foul end...I haven't decided yet...
So in other news I apparently suck at computer class...that's awesome...and I have discovered that I have no life due to overwhelming amount of shows that I "had" to watch on this season premier week. I have a show for 5 out of the week. I believe that might be a sign that I don't get out as much as I should...oh well.
So also looking at becoming a cop again...don't know how I feel about that...On paper I look like I have 5 years of patrol experience, but I don't think it really counts if it was in foreign countries.
So here are our closing thoughts provided by textsfromlastnight.com :

(361):

Oh my god it's like Minesweeper. I can tell there's sex in three of the four rooms, but which one is the safe one?

(617):

When the cops came you just told them you'd go to your time out corner.

-see I always say I hate people and on the one hand I really do...then I read shit like this and realize I finally understand what Love/Hate relationship means...cause I really love the stupid crap people say and do!!!!

Holy Neices Birthday......!!!!!

So what are the scariest words a parent can here...."Mommy..Aunt Lizzy I wanna go to Chuck E Cheese for my Birthday!" On the one hand you desperately want to give her a wonderful fun birthday...on the other hand you really want to be able to claim some sanity afterward....I will let you know how to accomplish this.
You and your sister (both of us being a grand age of ** and **) leave all the kids with your husband and run like hell to the skee ball section ( because it's the only game ya'll know how to play there) and pretend like you don't see the kids periodically coming to you for coins and tickets. It works just long enough for you to feel like you didn't just spend 2 hours chasing small children and breaking a sweat for no reward. Promise.
So I did find out that apparently my nephews know all the words to I Will Survive and enjoy dancing around my living room singing it at the top of their lungs...who knew...

Hey anyone think it's a shocker that most of Obama's financial advisers are "leaving" aka getting canned by November?
Also think I might have to take on the whole Lonestar College Financial Aid department because apparently they feel it is kosher to accept people's important documentation and then lose it...Awesome...wish I was already a lawyer...
Ok so I'm tired and not near as funny as I believe I could be so adios for the evening. I'll be back when I have something worthwhile to discuss...like the out come of the plumbing company thinking it was a good idea to break into my renovation property to access a power source that they were supposed to provide for themselves...as in a generator. Once again...awesome.
I am going to leave you with a little something from Texts From Last Night because they are awesome:
(206):
Just because you were able to pour the entire bottle of wine into 2 glasses does not mean you took it easy last night.

(970):

There was a canoe full of alcohol. It was literally a boat load of fun

Car Shopping

So I go to a dealership that is unlike every dealership that I have ever been to because it is an ebay dealership...that you can go to in person...? Well let me just tell you it is awesome. I have been looking for a Tahoe for what seems like forever (reality: a couple months) anyway you call up schedule a test drive for any vehicles you found on their website that you like, walk in they give you keys...THEN LEAVE YOU ALONE! It was great, no hounding, so sales pitches...nada...they don't pressure you cause they don't have to! They list their car's world wide so it will get sold with or without them having to be a**holes. This story doesn' t have a happy ending for me though...still didn't find that special Tahoe that is just for me...oh well I'll find that little bastard!
So I haven't written in a few days... been doing school work (and shopping for cars). I went to my business law class for the first time on Tuesday, I think it will be much more interesting than I first thought. Although I have to get my head wrapped around law in a business sense instead of your everyday jackass speeding down the road with a baggie of something they're not supposed to have. THIS ISN'T A DEBATE CLASS LIZ! CALM DOWN!!
Have you ever found yourself looking up random things on the web? I know you have!!!! Well last night for some reason I found myself looking up My Little Ponies...weird..weirder is that some 'tard is trying to sell an Italian? MLP for like $1300. Really!!!!!! come on now I love my '80's toy's like everyone else but this person has to go under my "special" kid of the day category. Now moving on with my apparent A.D.D. of the evening.
I am a little upset that I do not get to go see my husbands first "official" gig tomorrow night. Instead I get to work with html code and other crap for my computer class. I would much rather go and jam to what will undoubtedly be some sweet tunes......FML....
Ok here we go.....
Immigration....oh lord help us all....why oh why are we the only country not allowed to have immigration laws that get upheld? Not by our own politicians, and according to every country in the world we are complete bastards to try and penalize any one who IS illegal....Screw this....To every liberal, bleeding heart, democrat, republican, whoever, THEY ARE BREAKING THE LAW!!!!!!!! it is illegal to come here with no documentation, it is illegal to assume false identities to remain here. Let's all take a minute and look at the definition of ILLEGAL :

1il·le·gal adj \(ˌ)i(l)-ˈlē-gəl\   Definition of ILLEGAL:

: not according to or authorized by law : unlawful, illicit; also : not sanctioned by official rules (as of a game)
 
Thank you Merriam-Webster dictionary people.
Ok so why can we not deal with that as we would any other criminal? I'm tired of the American public paying over 5.8 billion dollars a year for illegals of any nationality, to go to school, get better health care that most actual citizens, get more government housing help than most Americans and generally have a better way of life than the people that actually contribute. An argument is that our economy would fail if all illegals magically vanished....bullshit...cause they don't pay taxes!!!! We spend more on them every year than they contribute by buying shit from their own also illegal friends and family!!!!!  Thanks but no...I am at the point where sometimes it sounds like a good idea to become an ex-pat which is sad since I love my country, but apparently no one who has the power to save it, will.

Ahhh exercise you are no longer my friend

So a few short years ago while I was in the Army running a 3-4 miles in an hour at 0630 was a pain in the ass, but totally within the scope of my ability. Now....not so much. In my head I can still knock out 55 push ups in 2 min and struggle to 60 sit ups in 2min, I can run (maybe not fast) decently. Lately I have trouble with 20 p/u and sit ups...forget about it, it's all crunches now baby. Running I can manage a turkey trot for about a mile and a half, and that's mostly due to my over energized German Shepherd dragging me home all I have to do is stay upright! It's awesome. I am the only 28 year old whose hip gives out on her on an almost daily basis, this is crap. I want to get exercise equipment but I have to be honest with myself enough to realize I am total shit at self motivation. Apparently I can only do what I need to under threat of being shown up or embarrassed in a group. Anyone got any suggestions on how to self motivate?
Ok pity party brought on by seeing my little sister looking like Malibu Barbie in a bikini is done...promise.
So here is a new question for all the people that AREN'T reading this blog.....anyone know where to get a mobile food kitchen/truck? Or here is another one...What the hell kind of dog is used for the Seattle street style cream cheese dog?!?!?!?!?!?
P.S. hopefully in a week I will be able to write about the start of my 1st renovation project!!!!!
Also it's 9/11 I hope everyone took a moment to at least remember and pay respects to the victims and also offer up a little pray, whisper, anything that all those responsible or like those responsible find their deaths in the most heinous and disgusting and painful way possible on this earth =)
I'm about ready to take America back, I believe it's time to get some values back and a little bit of reality. I don't think we need any radical crazy as parties running around getting themselves on t.v. for the hell of it. I think we need some damn intelligent; ass kicking; not giving a crap about PC shit; people to stand up and start taking it back. I am in the process of educating myself so that I can speak intelligently on the "important" issues and I think everyone else should too, or at least be aware of them and not be scared because someone might call the ACLU or the NAACP.....screw them, their outdated and as unnecessary as affirmative action in my opinion. There is a black man as president so I think they've pretty much made the top. And anyone who wants to say but he's half black half white....wrong! that man put himself down as African American on the 2010 census not "other" so he obviously considers himself black, that's fine. I'm not racist I am an equal opportunity discriminator. I dislike the idiots of all races! So I will leave you here before I really get into it.
Have a good weekend all!

Another Friday

So here we start a new weekend and I already know that it won't be near as exciting as last weekend. Wanna know why? Because this one doesn't involve the beach! Maybe I should just give in to my husband and go live in Belize. That would so rock! I could sit there in tropical splendor, with an island bar selling alcohol to loaded tourists....ahhhhh the life sounds good to me!
On the real front though...who knew it would be so freakin hard to find a food truck in freakin Houston! I mean their crawling all over the place! Whatever.
Anyhow....think I need to start a political movement....yeah it could rock....all I wanna know is who's comin with me...eh eh....no one...that's cool.......

What to do...

Have you ever had so many ideas that are completely awesome and completely doable...you just don't know how to get them started? That's where I am. I have 3 business plans...I just have to figure out how to implement them. Each business will inturn fund the other ones. So to start I have to figure out the logistics of starting a mobile food truck. If anyone knows be sure to drop me a line! I am going to keep my discoveries, successes and failures updated on here.
Also things are finally starting to move forward on the renovation, getting the pipes replaced, gonna have movers come in and get the furniture and boxes out. Then it's game on!!! I really hope I don't screw this up to bad cause I have to do my mom's house to! Lord help us all!!!
Meanwhile it would appear that I can not write one of these with out digressing into fatkid mode. So on that front I made the absolutely best BBQ Chicken pizza last night! Honestly when I open my full bar/resturant it is going to take prime spot on the menu!!!!
I don't have any political ammo to thow at ya'll yet today, so I will just say if you know a kid or a teenager (who is not totally lost in the emo/apathetic trend) take a minute to educate them on respect. I honestly don't think they know what it means, other than it's a word. I was at my nephews and niece's elementary school the other day and the safety kids come out to do the flag. And while a teacher stands ACROSS the driveway and just watches them, these kids take the AMERICAN and the TEXAS flag down crumple them into balls to take inside. Now call me crazy but I know that you are supposed to fold the flag upon taking in down from a pole and I know that there are FEDERAL Laws governing this. It's not the kids fault they don't know. It's ours and it's that teachers. So I will leave you guys a link and see what you think. Cheers!

This was aired 40 years ago, how crazy to see how accurately he nailed it!

Ahhhh The Weekend Is Done and the fun begins...

So after a "relaxing" weekend at the beach in which my husband got out fished by our 9 year old nephew (who has only fished twice now in his life) and I got to chase an 18 month old bound and determined to find a way into the water without me. The last day of which we got to spend touring the very cool Seawolf Park with the USS Stewart Destroyer Escort and the USS Cavalla submarine. I will say it was bad ass, but the USS Stewart desperately needs restoration I hope they get the funding they need.
I did however find a condo that seems promising...I mean how can you beat 30k for a 1bd 1ba a block from beach! Ahhhhhh
So today I had a realization...I should be on drugs...I stood today while a random tropical storm shoots through Texas (which means lots of rain!) and my dog ran full out in figure eights around my house, and my daughter ran up and down the sofa screaming at the top of her lungs. All I could do was stand there and hope to not be a casualty. Then I go pick up my mom and brother to go to the doctor and find out he has shingles........how jacked up is that. Poor guy.
So I am pretty sure that I had a whole bunch of stuff to write about at one point but right now I can't think of a damn thing. So I guess it is off to read my Humanities homework. Yay.
Peace out!

P.S. the Pastor in FL is an irresponsible jackass. Now I have my personally not so nice feelings towards radical Islamist but to make a move like burning the Koran is going to spark a rash of unnecessary violence against our own people. I say if you feel hatred towards the Radical Muslims, mount a hunting party and take THEM out. I'm just saying get rid of them don't kill our own to make a political point! I personally want to wage a war against willfully stupid people, think I can get support for that!

AHHHHH Friday

Now for most people Friday is a symbol of the end of the work week, this is still true for stay at home mom's that don't have kids in school. Because this means the other adult in the house will be around to help!!! Yes!!!! But this weekend is gonna rock anyway cause we are trying to make one last trip to Galveston happen!!!
Plan:
-make it there and it not be raining
-let munchkin run free and wild around the beach since she is a complete water baby
-have heart attacks while said munchkin is doing the above and try to find the toddler leash deal I bought
-decide I can't take it anymore with the anxiety and/or some catastrophe happens pack up go back to Aunt's beach house.
- chill out eat, put baby to bed, have some beer, contemplate how great it would be to buy the lot next to her and build dream beach house, make slightly intoxicated plans that will all come crashing down when we sober up and realize we didn't win the lottery.

Ok sounds good! I will also be pretending to myself that I am going to read the chapters I need to for school, so I hope everyone has as good a wknd as I plan on!!!
Cheers!
