OK…so…this is Christmas…and what have you done?? Well…I can tell you what I have done…a whole lot of stuff…and even still I have not done some things I wish I would have!!
I love this time of year...in case some of you may not have been able to guess!!! Love all the Christmas movies that are out and being played!! Christmas Vacation, Christmas Story, Miracle on 34th Street, The Santa Clause, and ALL the classic movies from the 60s & 70s with the old style puppets and claymation...just AWESOME!! And of course all the Christmas music one can handle!!! I LOVE IT ALL!!!
What a wonderful feeling when Christmas time is here!! I am in the mood, in the spirit, being the unofficial Cheermeister of everyone around me, I love this time of year. It’s just so much fun!! What’s not to love about Christmas?? Seriously…what’s not to love?? Go ahead; tell me…I wanna know!! I can’t think of anything…except for maybe the FLIPPING cold!!! (Yes…I am doing my best to curse a little less this time of year!!) It’s just the most wonderful time of the year. The songs that are played now, have so many different meanings. But the common meaning, to enjoy this time of year…be with family and friends who are dear to you…and spread a little cheer to your fellow man/woman. What’s NOT to love about this…I mean seriously!!!
What I just don’t get, is why society has turned into a bunch of pleasers. Why not just stand up for what you believe in??!! Why is it that we do things to make people smile, and bring joy and warmth to everyone’s heart, that when ONE PERSON complains…then we take it all down?? What the heck is up with that?? It’s just ridiculous how we just cower down, and bow to all the haters and complainers, because they don’t like us spreading the cheer. A Christmas tree is donated to a public school…and put up on display…two days later it is taken down, because someone complained. The CHRISTMAS Village in Philly, next to city hall, been there for 3 years…it’s all about Christmas…not in the religious sense…someone complains, and they take the sign CHRISTMAS down…WHY???!!! Luckily, the mayor said, it’s a Christmas village, and the sign stays, and it went back up. He also lit the CHRISTMAS TREE the next night…and said it was a CHRISTMAS TREE on television. Why?? CAUSE IT IS!!! What are people thinking calling it a Holiday Tree??!! I have a question…what IS a Holiday Tree. Hanukah has a bush, Christmas has a tree. So what is a Holiday Tree for?? What does it look like?? I have never seen one…have you??
Radio station NJ101.5 has a CHRISTMAS CHOIR contest going on right now. They want any schools with choirs to submit entries for singing Christmas songs. People are complaining because it’s a Holiday contest, and religion isn’t in the public schools. So…Jingle Bells…that’s a religious song?? How about Frosty the Snowman, or Here Comes Santa Claus?? Are they religious songs?? LIGHTEN UP PEOPLE!!! Have a heart!!! Seriously!!!
Well...that is all for now!!! Although I do have one more point to make...Why is it, that one can come up wirth great last minute gift ideas, and they are already sold out...??? UGH!!! From me to you...Have a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS...and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

What goes on here??
OK...someone explain it to me...Is it a gene thing?? The way your raised thing?? Are men just that dumb and ignorant?? I wanna know...where do some men get off?? Where do these morons come up with the idea that it's ok to do what they do?? What makes you think you are better than us?? What makes you think you are better than them?? What makes you think that you are better than anything or anyone??
OK...I bet by now...you are wondering what the hell am I talking about. Well I will tell you...I am talking about why do some men have an idea, that they think it is right to abuse a woman?? What gives them the right?? What do they THINK gives them the right?? Where do you get off thinking it is ok to hit a woman?? Where do you get off thinking it is ok to abuse a woman...both mentally & physically?? I really wanna know...someone please explain it to me. I have kept my mouth shut long enough on this topic. I have seen it, or at least the results of it, or the signs if you will, too many times. I am so sick of it!!! It is just so wrong on so many levels.
Why is it, when a man and a woman have some kind of disagreement, and the man feels intimidated...or that the woman is wrong and he is right...that he has to hit?? What does that prove?? I want to know!! Or...why when you don't get your way...then you call her names, or insult her...ad break her down to the point of whatever you say...you are right no matter what?? Come on tough guy...tell me!! You have no idea what it takes to be a real man...what it takes to please a woman...what it takes to make a girl happy!! If ya did...you would NOT strike her. You would NOT insult her...call her names...demoralize every fiber of her being. Real Men don't do that shit!!! Real Men never raise a hand to a woman...or demoralize her in any way.
No...a real man would work it out if there is a disagreement. He would never raise his hand to strike her. He would never call her mean names, or insult to the point of bringing her to tears just to get his way. Men & Women will ALWAYS have a disagreement or two or a million...that's just the way it is. No way around it. But that sure as hell doesn't mean that a man is always right...and a woman is always wrong...and to prove it to her, you're gonna knock the shit outta her, and set her straight!!! That is just ludricous and a crock of bullshit!!
You hurt these women. You demoralize these women. You crush the very fiber of their being to the point that if you say jump...they should already know how high!! I mean really?? You are that big and bad, you can just hit a woman, and be ok with it?? You can insult her, calling her every name in the book, making her feel so worthless, so broken down, so far lost and gone from what is right, that she would think its OK for you to do such things to her. Why?? For what?? I don't get it...you are nothing but a worthless piece of shit. Any man who can do that to a woman is just a worthless, no good, useless piece of trash.
Tell ya what tough guy!! You have a problem...and you feel like hitting a woman...come look me up. You can try and knock my ass down. I will guarantee you, it would be a LOT tougher than trying to knock these women down. Not saying that these women couldn't hold their own against you. But I bet you wouldn't know what the fuck hit you. And then maybe...just maybe...it would knock some sense into you!!! Doubtful...really fucking doubtful...but just maybe!!!
STOP THE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE!!!

Communication is ALWAYS the Key...
You can tell a lot by how well a person is able to communicate with you when talking to them. And you have an understanding of what makes that person tick. Communication...it's the key to a lot of things. Businesses, schools, families, and marriage are just some of the most common. And I wanna talk about the last one...marriage. If you don't have communication in your marriage...then it will never survive. And having a form of bad communication doesn't work either. Communication should ALWAYS be on the good side!! If men & women did that, the world would get along a helluva lot better than it does now.
Who is to blame?? Who is at fault?? Why don't they just sit down and talk it out?? These are always the same questions that come up with the communication issues. First I am gonna say...and this may get me into trouble...but...I am going to say that the guys are more at fault than the gals. Why is that?? All I seem to ever hear...is that the guys never talk...the guys don't ask...inquire...or pry out of their wives what the problem is. Again...why is that?? Why can't men communicate?? I don't know...I used to be like that...A LONG time ago...I used to not talk, I used to keep it all bottled up...I used to say...I ain't gonna ask what's wrong if you can't come right out and tell me. I have learned, that this is wrong!! This doesn't solve the problem. This doesn't fix anything. All it does, is mount more frustration & anger on top of a bad situation. And the end result could be catastrophic.
You can wake up alone one morning...because your wife has left you...because you won't talk to her any more. Is it worth it?? Is it worth your stubbornness and pride to not tell her what your feeling?? To not ask her what is wrong?? And gals...you're not completely off the hook...You have to learn to speak your mind when you need to. If you don't...you're gonna go insane. Is it worth it to not talk to each other?? Is it worth the anger, the frustration, the dirty looks, all the emptiness?? That's what you will be left with in the end. Nothing but a lot of emptiness.
I could go on & on about communication...and how everyone can practice better communication with each other...but I won't...You need to just finish reading this...and talk to your significant others...and tell them what you are feeling!!
Till next time!!!

Just a Few Thoughts...
As I write this...I am really tired...I was up late watching the JETS beat the Vikings 29-20 on Monday Night Football!! What an awesome game!!! Can I get a WOOT WOOT from my fellow JETS fans!!!
So...what's on my puny little mind?? Hmmm...Let me think...How about courtesy??!! What the hell is goin on in today's world with today's youth?? Did you all take a stupid pill recently?? Or a rudeness pill?? Maybe it was an ignorance pill?? I dunno what you took...but you need to stop it, and knock all the bullshit off!!! What am I talking about?? Let me explain...Most recently...like THIS MORNING...I am coming out of the WaWa, and I see a teenager with their hands full, I hold the door open...both actually...I get NO look, NO reaction...let alone...NO THANK YOU???!!! WTH??? Example #2...I recently was at the pharmacy...I won't say which one...but again...I am just being courteous, and holding the door for another teenager...and again...I get NO look, NO reaction, and NO THANK YOU!!! WTF???!!! Don't you kids have manners?? Didn't your parents teach you any?? You need to be thwacked in the back of the head to shake loose some of that common courtesy loose!!! How about a little common courtesy!!??
I would also like to thank the kids who walked passed my house the other day, and removed all my flag markers on the front lawn. Thanks!! I appreciate it...Good thing we are done with training my dog in the front yard!! Otherwise, we would have had to remark the area again...and that is a pain in the butt. How bout you respect other people's property!! Again...do I need to thwack you on the back of the head to shake common sense loose??
Recently...I posted a couple of statuses and BITCHED and COMPLAINED about my wife's company the Canine Fence Company...the Original Invisible Fence...I would like to explain my actions and opinions a little further. I will admit that I love the product...I stand by it...I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone!! It's a great thing to have for your pets. My problem was with how they were treating my wife. It's over...it's done with...and i will not get into it here nor there...but if you wanna discuss it with me...email me...HAHA
I apologize if some people are upset or offended by my statuses updates...but it is my opinion...and I am entitled to it...and if you dont like it...that's fine...while I am entitled to have one...you are also entitled to not like it...I don't have a fear of voicing my opinion on Facebook...so it is what it is!!
Halloween is in the air...and I LOVE IT!!! I only have one question though...Why when we go to the stores for whatever reason...are the Halloween decorations right next to the Christmas decorations?? Does that make sense to anybody?? I mean...forget that it's so early...what about the fact that there is a holiday in between...called THANKSGIVING??? WTH???!!! When did the holidays become so commercial?? Seriously!!! I dont remember it...LOL Well...anyway...I got my two boys helping me out with the decorations and theme this year...and I like the way they think...It is gonna be a GOOD and SCARY time for Halloween this year!!! LOL
Well...that's all that's on my mind for now!!! Until I blog again...

I don't get it...
OK...Hello everyone...time for a monthly blog that is overdue, since I did NOT do one in August!!! Sorry...it was a busy month!!
Question...did everyone start school today?? Or recently?? I bet you're ALL CELEBRATING now that school is back in town!!! LOL I know I kinda am!! Next Question...do you get involved with your kids in extra-curricular activities?? Do you coach them?? Or did you join the PTA?? Or did you join the Yearbook Committee...or something like that?? Well...I did...I coach Baseball & Soccer. I am on the PTA...and I am on the Yearbook Committee. Yeah...I like to be involved...so sue me!!! LOL
Here is what I don't get...I understand that the "norm" if you will, is that the Dad is the coach...and Mom cheers from the sidelines...and Mom is involved in the PTA, and Mom is on the Yearbook committee. (And let me tell you...I had NO IDEA there was a yearbook committee in the elementary school level!!!) But why is it...if the Dad wants to be different and do those things...he gets the funny looks...or the something has got to be wrong with him looks?? I am not talking about single parents...because God Bless ALL the single parents out there...as I know it must be a struggle to have to do it alone. I am talking about the married couples...and while the "norm" is for Mom to do her thing, and Dad to do his thing...why can't I be different?? Is there a law?? A rule?? Some kind of unwritten prophecy that says...Dad's cannot do what Mom's do in certain things??
Is that it?? Cause I am unaware of this rule...especially since you got Moms coaching sports. So why can't I as a Dad participate in other things?? I am a picture hound...ask anyone who knows me!!! I love to take pics, look at pics, have pics texted to me, emailed to me...whatever...Pictures are worth 1000 words. So...since I love to take pics...would it not make sense to be on the Yearbook Committee?? So...if that's ok...then why do I get these funny looks, strange looks, curious looks, and even some mean looks, or worried looks, about why am I taking pics at the 1st Day of School for the Yearbook?? Can't I do it?? Am I not allowed?? Is there something wrong with me?? I am a big boy...I can handle it...just tell me!!! But don't give me any of the strange, weird, or mean looks and expect me to not notice it!! OK??? It's just down right rude!! I wanna be involved with my kids with coaching, and at school...so let's just leave it all alone...ok??
I had other stuff I wanted to blog about...but it all escapes me at the moment!!! Have a nice day!!!

Random Thoughts and Such...
Hi...been a while...about a month to be exact!!! I am sitting here typing this, and I really don't know what to type, or where to exactly begin!! So I guess I will begin from the top...LOL
Why is it that no matter how hard you try, or how much you give your all...some people just can't deal with change, and try to ruin a good thing?? I don't wanna go into details now...I will just say that I am getting tired of being slapped in the face for busting my ass and doing all this work for the right reasons, and yet some people just wanna destroy it and make me fail. WTF???!!!
Why is it that some people just don't know when to shut up about things they have NO idea about, or just shouldn't be talking about?? I won't say that I am innocent of this...but I have learned to keep my mouth shut a lot more when i have no business offering my two cents!!
When will we all learn from our mistakes...and stop trying to save a buck or two, and do it right the first time so we don't have the catastrophic problems from doing things the cheap way?? Perfect example...the Oil Leak in the Gulf. BP slacked on the inspections, they used bad material, and now we are ALL gonna pay for this, as we are trying to save the wildlife, and restore the way of living out there.
Why are we heading in the direction as a society that will remove all physical sports and become lazy, and fat...and not be able to survive?? Why are schools removing the good old sports like Dodgeball, and Kickball, and stuff like that...games we all played when we were kids. I got hit once or twice...I am ok...so what's the problem?? Now I hear that someone has launched a crusade to stop T-Ball...because her 14 yr old son got hurt (I think its a sprain) while doing it? And why is T-Ball being done at that age? I thought it was for 4-7 year olds...Hmmm...
When will people learn to drive on the road safely with motorcycles on the road?? I have been riding for a year now...and I have noticed in that time, that people just don't pay fucking attention to their surroundings!! Cars & trucks & vans all just weaving in and out of lanes, cutting off us motorcycles...and for what?? I mean seriously!! Share the fucking road people!!! You don't own it...we all rent it...LOL And on that note...Speedy Recovery to my friend Adam...who was hit from behind on his BICYCLE by a tractor trailer!!! WTF is that??!!
Why do we end up getting the rude & mean people to care for our kids at summer camp?? I had someone threaten my son in a sense...by saying "You are going swimming tomorrow or else" and that just doesn't fucking fly with me!!! And when he doesn't have to go swimming...that just pisses me off even more!!! So when I go to drop him off at the "camp" and the same counselor who made the comment to him, is there and his rude to him while I am STANDING RIGHT THERE???!!! You have got a big problem...so i was stern back to her...and she became all friendly suddenly!! I just don't get it...isn't camp or this form of camp supposed to be fun?? When a kid fakes being sick to stay out...and other kids are guilted in to doing things...then there is a real fucking issue and it needs to be addressed. And don't worry...I intend to address it next week!!!!
Well...that's all for now!! Till next time, and maybe I will have something more important or interesting to discuss!! LOL

There is a show on the food network...called Iron Chef. I have never watched it...but some friends of mine & Christy's have. In fact...I think my wife watched it...but I don't!! Well...we decided to do a fun thing with this show...and 5 families decided to get together and have our own version...but home style!!!
The way it works...we all come together at one of the 5 families' home...and bring the kiddies...and we all prepare to have some fun. Whoever hosts the event...one person is the shopper...and they go out...and buy all the ingredients...whatever you wanna buy...but cheap and within reason. That also includes the special "Mystery Ingredient"...this is up to the shopper.
Then...when all the families show up...while the kids are distracted...teams are drawn/drafted and the odd men/women out are the judges!!! Teams of 3 are usually best...this way the kitchen is not TOO crowded!!! LOL So...once teams are formed...strategizing begins...and then the cooking commences. Each team has 3 hours total...to cook 2 appetizers...1 entree...and 1 dessert. The mystery ingredient has to be used at least once!!! Everything is made from scratch...no recipes off a box...all from your creative mind!!! The judges grade each item on 3 specific things: Presentation, Originality, and Taste...all on a scale of 1-10.
So...this past weekend...it was held at my house!! I cooked...Christy was the shopper and one of the judges!!! It was a great time...I gotta say that the two people I was paired with...some of the most creative cooking minds I have ever seen. I felt like little worm on a big hook, or a little pea in a big garden...whatever your cliche is...they were WAY smarter than I am with cooking!!! They were suggesting some of the ingredients we had and how to cook them...and when asking me my opinion...I looked at them like a deer in headlights!!! I know very basic stuff...I know how to grill things...I am NOT in any way, shape, or form a gourmet chef!!! LOL
So out 1st appetizer was some crab meat (mystery ingredient) and other tasty things stuffed in a portabello mushroom...baked in the oven for 20 min on 350 degrees. It was YUMMY...the 2nd appetizer was marinated shrimp (i don't know in what) grilled with bacon wrapped around each one on a skewer...our entree was a marinated steak...I believe teriyaki sauce and some other good stuff helped the taste...grilled...and a side dish for it was pomme frits...which is homemade french fries...and they were really good!!! And our dessert was a crem broule' with chocolate, some strawberry sauce. And HOT DAMN it was ALL so good!!!
Needless to say...it was a close race...and my team won...by 5 points!!! It was a fun time...I recommend it to everyone!!! Its cheap...and fun!!! Can't wait for the next one...and again...let me state again for the record...I suck at the creative portion of this...and Thanks to Geoff & Jessica my teammates for being so totally awesome!!!
Till the next time!!!

T-Ball...What an experience!!!
In February 2009...I met with a buddy of mine to discuss plans for T-Ball...I thought there would be more coaches...but it was just me...and him. He was the commissioner...but he had to step down...the president of the league asked me to step up...I did. Boy did I have my work cut out for me!!! I had me as the only manager...and my buddy Cary who was the commish...as an assistant coach for a 2nd team. Well it took some digging...and begging...but I got enough managers & coaches to run 7 T-Ball teams. It was a pretty fun season!!! This was my 2nd experience in coaching Jack...and I was really looking forward to it. Even more exciting, was the opportunity to teach other kids the fun behind the game of baseball.
Being the commissioner...it was tough...heck it still is...as I am doing it again this year. And as the season comes to an end...it has been a blast. Every day within the season is a learning experience. Yes there are things I would change from the past, for having done some things wrong...but you live and learn...and aside from a few errors I have made...I wouldn't change a thing!!! It has been a great experience to watch the other coaches...who I consider friends...help teach these kids the fundamentals of the game of baseball, and making sure they have fun!!! Cause really, that's what it's all about right?? If the kids aren't having fun...then we are doing something wrong!!!
While I have run into my share of parents and coaches...who think its time to instill the goal of winning every game into some of these kids...and I try to show them they are wrong...cause it's not about winning...it's about having fun!!! You can still lose 10-1 or 5-0...and as long as your kids/players tried their best and had fun...then you as a coach succeeded!!! That's my philosophy!! And it's good to see that it is the same with so many others!!! Yes...we may all think our kid is the next A-Rod, Jeter, Bonds, Santana, Henderson...but why push them now?? Let them have their fun and enjoy the game...they have plenty of time to learn how to become that big league baseball player inside of them!!
Last year...Jack's 1st season...as well as a bunch of his friends...was a great experience...in my opinion...they had fun...they were learning fielding...hitting...throwing...and having fun...did I say that already?? LOL This year...Jack's 2nd season...he has shown that he has the ability...but not the desire...and that's fine...so he won't be moving on...the important thing is he had fun this season!!! So did all his friends on the team. The big contest this year...who can knock the coach down...hitting him with the ball when he pitches??!! That coach of course was me!! From the very 1st practice...until this coming Saturday...all the players have had one goal...KNOCK ME ON MY ASS!!! LOL And the parents loved it...I think they cheered louder when the kids succeeded at that!! And yes...they have done that!!! Last year in the batting cages for practice...I forget who it was, but they managed to break my cell phone!!! This year...knock on wood...I have been lucky!!!
We have our last game of the season this Saturday...then we will have our end of season picnic...and give out the trophies to all the players. While some think it's foolish to give them trophies at a young age...or some think it's just unnecessary...they will get their reward for all their hard work. They came to all the practices. They came to all the games. They tried their hardest...and gave it their all...and had a blast doing it. Last year we had 84 kids playing in the T-Ball level...this year we had 148...I can only imagine what next season will bring!!
Oh...and on a personal note...if you get the chance to coach your kid in a sport...I highly recommend it...it is one of the greatest feelings in the world to teach your child all you can about a sport you know and love!!! Just have patience...and treat them like a player on the team...not your child!! I know I have had a problem on occasion with it...but I managed to get it done!!!
That's all for now!!!

Is an opinion always needed??? I don’t know…
Is an opinion always needed or even necessary?? I don’t know if it is…but I got one…and I am going to express it…so hold on to your hats!! Well…for starters…as far as my latest in the weight loss category…I am now down to 215 lbs. It’s so fricking awesome!! I have not been this thin in a LONG, LONG time!!! Kudos to me!!!
Ok…Tiger Woods…does anyone really care?? I mean seriously?? What has happened to news in the last few years…with more gossip than actual news??!! He is married…and filthy rich…he cheated…got caught…too bad, so sad…I don’t care!! Have a nice life!! Do what you must to repair or end your marriage…and move on!! I don’t care Tiger…I am sorry…but I really don’t!!
March Madness has hit!!! And WOW…who else lost big in their brackets with Kansas taking a nose dive to…Northern Iowa?? Unfortunately…Duke is still there…I hate Duke!! I hope they get smoked next game!! Well…with all the upsets…and ‘madness’ in the games…who knows what will happen this year!!! Should still be fun to watch!!
I just gotta say…I went on a 3 hour motorcycle ride this past Saturday…and it was so effin’ awesome!!! I love it!!! Bring on the nice & warm weather!!! I wanna go riding again!!!! It was a great day for the 5 of us that went riding!!! Took a little cruise into the area of New Hope…and boy was it crowded…they need to fix that!! LOL Or not…it was just super packed!!! We went around it instead!! Great time though. Next time we should cruise to the beach…or even the Delaware Water Gap up north and get the greatest hot dogs in the state of NJ, Hot Dog Johnny’s!!! They so totally rock!!!
Healthcare…does everyone see the sad and bad direction this is going besides me?? Somehow, some way, we the little people are gonna get the royal SCREW!!! I don’t care what this is called or labeled as. It’s gonna go bad for a lot of us!!!
Since the weather is warming up…it’s time for baseball season. No I am not talking the pros. I am talking the recreation league. I am talking T-Ball!!! As the T-Ball commissioner…it has been a very interesting 2nd year so far…and opening day isn’t for another month!! You gotta love the stress, and anxiety of trying to make it as fun, and as exciting as possible for the 5, 6, & 7 yr olds!!! Don’t parents…some not most…understand, this is supposed to be fun…not a chore?? Tom Selleck said it best, in one of my favorite movies ‘Mr. Baseball’. He said, "Baseball is a game, games are supposed to be fun. It’s not about 9 guys doing their own thing. It’s about 9 guys working together as a team…and having fun!" That’s what it is all about peeps!!! Remember that…and never forget it’s about the kids at this level…not the parents. That being said…can I just say…I hate the small town politics!!! Last time I checked…I graduated HS back in 1989…over 20 years ago!! I don’t play the HS games anymore…you don’t like me…fine…be a man about it and say so…don’t play any damn games!!! Yet…I got coaches from one team…messing with coaches on another team!! Seriously??? Really??? And now because of some stupid beef…I had to have a coach quit!!! That is just so ridiculous!!! Remember what I just said…it’s about the KIDS!!!!!! It’s not about two parents squabbling with each other, and calling each other whatever. It’s letting the kids go out and play. If you have a problem with the coaches on another team…Tell me what the beef is, and as commissioner…I will do my best to squash the issue quickly!! If it’s two parents arguing with each other, and using your kids to get at each other…don’t come to me…cause you got bigger issues than playing ball. Get your head screwed on right, and leave me out of it!!! But remember…we are here for the children!!! I know the drama is not over…so I may have to open this door and bitch again later!! LOL
Ok…the next opinion could be a sore subject…and get me on the bad boy list…depending on thoughts!!! But here I go anyway…I know we all can’t stand the state of things in good old NJ. It started way back when with Florio…and only progressively got worse…and worse…with each new governor. And Corzine did the really good job of screwing us!!!! Now we got Christie!! And he is doing what is necessary to get us back on track. I know that sacrifices need to be made…I get that!! What I don’t get is his leaving it up to the idiot administrators, making the big bucks…and watching them screw the little guy like teacher’s aides, or newbie teachers!!! What’s the deal people?? Why are we trusting the administrators to handle the budget cuts?? Too many good people are losing their jobs so the rich continue to stay rich!! That’s just fucking bullshit, and totally ridiculous!! You blew it on that one Christie!! Sorry but you did!! So how long does anyone think it will be before the state of NJ declares bankruptcy???
Let me see…what’s next?? Oh yeah…work…work is still a pain in the ass…and I am STILL waiting on a final answer to move out of my current location, and go back to some kind of normalcy at my field office. WTF???!!! I am waiting on final word from two people, that I can’t even begin to understand why they have any opinion or here say on my relocating. I don’t care if I have work that I am gonna be able to do!! I want out before I go totally nuts and get into it with someone!! I am so sick of all the drama, bullshit, back-stabbing, and all of that!!! I don’t need it or want it. I hate it over here!!! Absolutely hate it!!! Give me strength…and the sanity to survive just a little longer!!!
Ya know…one of these days…I am gonna take some of my own advice…and when I think of a good idea to blog about…write it down…cause right now…my brain can’t think of what else I wanted to talk about…and I know there were a few more subjects to write about!!! Well…guess that’s all for now boys & girls!!
Have a Nice Day!!!

Mother Nature...Why are you so mean?? And some other stuff...
Well...Mother Nature is hitting us hard again for the Winter of 2010. How many more inches of snow do we possibly need?? Normally i am someone who absolutely LOVES the winter time...and the storms...and the way everything looks...and I just enjoy the snowy weather. Now...I can admit for once...I am sick of it!!! I am sick of all the snow...I want warmer weather...I want the sun to be out shining bright and heating up everything like it's supposed to in the Spring & Summer. I can't wait for the Spring & Summer of 2010. They need to get here quick!!!
The snow needs to just stop. Too many idiots out there, who don't know whow to drive in the snow. Everyone thinks they are drivi ng 4-wheel drive vehicles...when really...they ain't!!! And then you have accidents, that clog up the roads, and everyone is stuck out there...cause of ll these idiots...who think they are the bomb at driving in this weather!!! GET OFF THE ROADS you idiots!!! Its really simple actually...if you are nervous about driving in the weather...then you don't belong on the roads in this weather!!!
Ya know...some people may think that Hell is freezing over with all this snow. Does that mean the Eagles will win a Superbowl?? Or the Jersey Shore reality debacle is a good show?? Or any other cliche of a team or group that you think fits in there?? I don't think it's hell...I think mother nature is just letting us all know how small we really are in her world!! But enough is enough mom...let's bring on the warm weather...OK??? PLEASE!!!!!?????
So...what else is going on?? Not too much...I don't get to post as often as I like...I should really take a moment, as I see things that should be spoken up about, and jot them down...and when I can blog about it...do so...but here are a few things...
Let's get something straight...and clear...in my opinion...if you are on a reality show...it does NOT mean you are a fucking celebrity!!! It does NOT mean you are a fucking superstar!! It means...you had no problem being on a show...that the whole world could see...and see how interesting or pathetic you can be. I am so sick and tired of these 'celebrities' that come from reality shows...and expect some kind of royalty treatment...or something of that nature!!! Some reality people that need to go away...in no particular order...Spencer & Heidi Pratt, the Octomom, Jon & Kate, the Kardashians, all the fucking "real housewives" of any county or state... just to name a few. Oh and Rosie O'Donnell needs to fuckin go away forever...but that's a whole other issue...she is just annoying, annoying, and fucking annoying!!! She is just crazy and lost her fucking mind...but again...I won't bitch about it...for now...just SHUT UP ROSIE!!!! That' all I have to say...
Ya know...if more people used common sense and logic...the world could be a safer and better place...just saying. Why are higher ups in the food chain of business so oblivious or just stupid in making decisions that affect the little people like me on the food chain below?? How did you get to your position again??? When a parent puts their child in a sports group for a recreation league of some kind...do they realize that their child is 6...and not a Derek Jeter, David Beckham, or Brian Urlacher??? I mean come one people...they are kids!!! Games are supposed to be fun then...not work!!! And if any work is involved...it should be very little, and made a fun experience for the kids!!! Let's remember that ok???
Well...that's all i got for now!!! Have a nice day!!!
The snow needs to just stop. Too many idiots out there, who don't know whow to drive in the snow. Everyone thinks they are drivi ng 4-wheel drive vehicles...when really...they ain't!!!

As of my last official weigh in on 1/14…I am down from 251 to 226…WOOHOO!!!!!! I fucking LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am fitting so much better into clothes…I am feeling so much better…and I am actually keeping up with all them young little rug rats!!! HAHAHA My ultimate goal is to be around 215…and I will continue to work on that…and hit that goal soon!!! I will be sure to keep ya posted!!! Thanks for your support!!!
Well…it’s been a rough last few months…mostly in the health department for the family…just one thing after the next…and very frustrating!!! Back in September, Christy was in the hospital, as her body had a bad reaction to the IV steroids that was prescribed to her, and they all thought she had drinking problems, heart problems…and wanted to do all kinds of crazy shit. But it all turned out to be nothing!!! Except…the one neurologist wanted to run a few more tests for the possibility of MS. 10 years ago…we went thru the same thing after her accident, and she was diagnosed with having MS…but after a month of the injections, went for a 2nd opinion…and he proved she DIDN’T have MS. So…the MRIs are not conclusive enough…they do a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) and that shows she does have MS…but she is not symptomatic…weird!!! So…she has to start the treatments soon. Gonna do the daily shots…and oh yeah…probably go for the 4th opinion on this subject soon enough!!!
Jack, we took to the IDS doctor…God Bless this woman…she totally rocks!!! Jack is finally over that viral fever thing…and she suggested he go see an allergist…so we did…and wow…he is allergic to a bunch of trees, cats, dustmites, and something else…Poor kid!!! And we went to an ear specialist, as he was STILL getting ear infections!!! The last time was a double!!! So the doctor said to do tubes in his ears…and let me tell you…I have seen some funny shit in my life…but NOTHING is as funny as watching your 6 ½ year old child on the ‘giggle’ juice to prepare them for surgery, and watching them wear it off following the surgery. I can’t remember the things said…but they were so damn funny!!! Had me & Christy rolling along with the nurse!! Once he came to his senses…he was hearing things so clearly!!! It is great that he can hear…but now I have to fix that selective hearing thing so he stops tuning out the parents…LOL
So like I said, rough couple of months!!! But all is better now. Except now after Jonny’s last ear infection…we wanna take HIM to the specialist now, and see if they recommend tubes for him too. Need to make that appt and see what happens!!! Did I mention that I lost 25 pounds in less than a year on Weight Watchers?? WOOHOO!!!!!!!
Work is still stressful right now…and a change is forthcoming…I need to change locations soon before I go ballistic!! I won’t go into detail…yet…but keep your fingers crossed that I am sane again by 5 February!!! That’s the deadline to make a change!!!
Otherwise…believe it or not…I have nothing super bad to blog about!!! I finally got my Christmas decorations down…way later than I wanted to, but the weather was killing me with the ground being so frozen!!! So…now for the rest of the people who have to finish…GIT-R-DONE!!!!! Valentine’s Day is just around the corner!!! LOL
Well…guess I will end this short…non-super bitching blog on a good note…this time!!! LOL
I would like to THANK everyone for their thoughts and prayers with all that has been going on!!! It means a lot!!
And…I guess that’s it…so tat a for now!!!!
Have a Nice Day!!!!
