Completely Random Thoughts- Part 9

Thoughts brought on by…who the Hell knows?
1) I hate my underwear
2) Forgot to de-puff my eyes this morning, I look like a inept prize fighter
3) Just tweezed my 3 errant eyebrows
4) Sometimes the power of the "vibe" amazes even me
5) I know that quite a few people find procedures and guidelines unnecessary and pointless, but for those of us who like structure, those things are like air and it pisses me the hell off when folks don’t follow the rules!!!!
6) Yeh, I know, life’s not fair…yada yada yada
7) My ear is so stuffed up; sounds like people are talking to me underwater and there’s a lot of static
8) Crotch jewelry…what’s the point? No one ever sees it and lace panties are not compatible
9) Poor Dee Dee, they make her life hell here. She should dot more people in the eye, in my opinion.
10) Really must attend more slumber parties…what a ball that was!
11) My ears are so sore.
12) Did not have time to do my hair this morning…lets just say it’s exhibiting its on personality today
13) Looking forward to Black Friday and Christmas shopping. Still don’t know what I’m getting Lili…something non-lethal to newborns is probably a good idea.
14) So only simple food today—oatmeal, salad, cottage cheese—maybe my stomach and ghost gall bladder will calm down then
15) 3 more things added to the "Sharon can’t eat it or she’ll feel like she’s dying" list—hot dogs, roasted marshmallows and anything fried. Sometimes the cure is worse than the illness, but I have to bite the bullet for the tummy’s sake. Being an old grown up sucks.
16) Roddy’s already making plans for running amok when I’m gone on vacation in January. I would worry, but he’s already tainted, so what’s a few more swabs of ick? LOL Just kidding, Fodder, I know it washes off…..
17) I guess salad is going to be disagreeable today as well—crap, I am SO tired of having a stomachache.
18) I wonder if eliminating my stress would help my stomach? Hmmm, point to ponder.
19) This day is passing so slowly…I guess the rest of the week will too. Holiday weeks are that way, aren’t they?
20) My frown won’t go upside down.
21) Sighing deeply isn’t helping today
22) Will it never be Friday?
23) Okay, beet salad….canned beets (yummy), hard-boiled eggs and mayo…is it just me or is this the most disgusting concoction known to man? The pink shade it turns is roughly the hue of Kaopectate…blech!!!!!!!!!! At least I get to bring something homemade for a change
24) Crystallized ginger is a lot harder to find than you would think

Country Music-My Take

Country Music Songs- Just My Take
I love country music…grew up on, breathe it, eat it, love the heck out of it. I enjoy other music too, but my musical roots are country. Occasionally, however, the message of the song makes me do a double take and say "what the….!". Lets take a look at my favorite ones…
1. Whoever’s in New England (by Reba McEntire)- "When whoever’s in New England’s through with you and Boston finds better things to do, you know it’s not too late and you’ll always have a place to come back to"…. I don’t think so, Sir! When that frigid Yankee skank is done with you, don’t be bringing your nappy ass home to me…as if!
2. Just To Hear You Say That You Love Me (by Faith and Tim) –Okay, can we say codependent? They have drugs to help with that now. I mean, if I have to jump through hoops, rope moons, or turn my head so much that sucker’s swiveling like a gyroscope just so that can I hear some undeserving yahoo say "I love you", then I need someone to kick me in the ass.
3. Stay (by Sugarland)—Do I even need to say it? "You keep saying that there will come a time, you will leave her arms and forever be in mine, but I don’t think that’s the truth and I don’t like being used and I’m tired of waiting" She is doing the Posturpedic Polka with another woman’s husband and seems confused that he would lie to her…HELLO! Fortunately, she comes to her senses at the end, but I feel she is missing the point…"it’s too much pain to have to bear, to love a man you have to share"—you’re not sharing, you homewrecking ho, you are stealing, big difference. It’s only sharing if everybody knows what’s going on.
4. Now I Know (Lari White)—"I always wondered how’d I live without you if you ever said goodbye"…I know, I know (raising my hand) oooo, maybe get a life of your own? Staggering, I know, but others have done it and survived.
That’s all for now, just had to vent on it a little. Warning: this week will not be cheery and upbeat…the holidays wreak havoc on me. But stay tuned for the ever escalating doom, gloom and bad will towards all and to a few in particular.

Completely Random Thoughts - Part 8

Thoughts brought on by songs on my computer
1) Just thinking that its funny how I have all the resolve and self-control anyone in the world would ever need, but one song can make me lose all of my home-training with the thoughts it brings to fore and the reactions to the thoughts…sigh, Donny Osmond, what a trouble-maker
2) I’m in a place I never thought I’d be
3) Dee Dee went home sick and took her funk with her, thank God. I can absolutely not afford to catch anything, literally.
4) I must go home and cook dinner tonite, people are starving (or at least a little tired of leftovers)
5) My little man is growing like a weed. He looks like Katelyn at that age, all arms and legs, tall as a tree. There is absolutely no baby fat on him at all.
6) If I keep calling Lili ‘Princess’, will she grow up a conceited mess? I don’t think so, I just think she’ll believe she’s all that and a bag of chips…as she should.
7) 64 days til I see my sister….Yay! Happy, happy day! This time I have a whole 8 ½ days with her which includes two weekends. That is so awesome, you can’t believe it. Wonder what we’ll do? She’ll probably sleep a lot, like always, I’ll cook a lot, like always, and we’ll chill. Maybe see a movie, maybe go to the ½ price bookstore (LOVE that place), maybe go to the scrapbook store (no, say it ain’t so), we might even scrapbook a little. Oooo, maybe antique shopping in Weston, or go to Central and get a new sweatshirt….oh, the possibilities.
8) Fairly cold at the moment
9) Someone IS touching the pudgy Pilgrim people. Does no one remember the rule? DO NOT TOUCH SHARON’S CRAP….EVER! Stupid heads, just wait until I catch who’s doing it, I’ll hand him his ass in a shovel.
10) Kissing you was not what I had planned…Jack Wagner, how I love thee!
11) Drinking diet Mountain Dew makes my eyes go all funky.
12) Working on a couple of dialogues in my head. Perfecting the delivery and all that is important, you know.
13) Waking up at 5:55 when you have to leave for work at 6 a.m. is not conducive to good hair
14) Still can’t decide what to take to the Thanksgiving get together. Doesn’t really matter anyway, no one’s going to eat it. Maybe I should just take rolls and sodas and count myself lucky.
15) Who would eat Kraft mac & cheese when they can have homemade?
16) I wish the construction business would pick up soon; its starting to worry me
17) I’ll be glad when they finish my floor, I need to bake
18) Just ate some more chicken so I should be laying eggs soon
19) Butterscotch coffee, does that sound good? It did at first, but now it just seems icky.
20) When I finally have an empty nest, I am going to sit on the floor in my bikini with socks on and alternately cry and laugh hysterically.
21) If your frequency is already infrequent, what happens when that becomes sporadic as well? Do you bite the bullet and just call it non-existent.
22) Making spaghetti and salad for dinner tonight
23) Just for fun, think of movie titles (or song titles) and replace one of the words with the word "booty". It’s hysterical and a great way to pass the time when you’re driving or working…ooops, I mean with time on your hands. Example—Another One Bites the Booty (lol) or A Few Good Booties …soooooo much fun
24) My wooden shelf fell off the wall last nite and a lot of my treasures got broken. I am so sad about it, but there’s no one to blame. Most of them are so smushed that they can’t even be glued back together.
25) Here come the holidays…ready to wrap, bake, fuss and fume.
26) If I could have sweet tea run intravenously, I would.
27) People who are educated beyond their intelligence frustrate me
28) The weather must be a-changing; my elbow feels stiff
29) I need a Coke and a smile
30) I hate it when people call me ‘honey’- do I look like an enormous pile of bee shit? How hard it is to say miss, or ma’am or even (gasps!) Sharon?
31) Do grown women have stuffed bunnies in their bedrooms?
32) If I only worked a couple of hours a day, I’d probably have a tidier house, cook dinner more often and would have conquered Laundry Mountain…or I’d just have grandbabies at the house all the time and run amok with them
33) OMG, b.o.! How hard is it to wash your pits, people?
34) How do you ‘break it’ to someone gently?
35) I should do a mud mask—I don’t feel glow-y right today

9) Spiraling, spiraling down to the deep dark black
10) I am going to hit Leslie in the mouth with my fist

20) I love the way my hair gets all full and bushy when its cold
21) Yippee ki aaaaaa, Cow Patty , I can’t believe the things that used to pass as music back in the day. Examples—Short People, Cheeseburger in Paradise, and the forever tragic Disco Duck.
22) It’s chilly in south Florida today…48 degrees and sunny. There is actually a severe weather alert for us, with a wind chill advisory and a fire weather alert. The wind chill drops the temp down to 43…be still, my frozen heart.
23) Would two non-snugglers snuggle if it got really cold?
24) Chicken and stuffing for dinner tonight, yummy, perhaps with a green bean or 2
25) Got to go see the babies after work, apparently Lili has a toe issue and Katelyn can’t figure out what’s wrong
26) All I want for Christmas is an external hard drive or a digital camera since mine was stolen. That’s all I want…
27) Beans and rice, beans and rice, once or twice or maybe thrice, beans and rice is nice…. Schoolhouse Rock, circa 1976
28) I think someone is playing with the portly Pilgrim people when I’m not at my desk
29) I want to win the lottery so I can have a day off
30) Little glimpses into someone else’s life are refreshing, educational and a little disturbing sometimes
31) No one wants to believe that they are responsible for specific negative outcomes, but if the flip-flop fits, wear it

41) I’ve been sneezing for the last 15 minutes; perhaps I have a cold

43) Gonna try to do the Black Friday shopping thing next Friday morning. Haven’t been in years, but Mama (that would be me) needs a new digi camera
44) I think Lili needs a baby stroller for Christmas and some BIG pink Legos—is that gender typing or just good gifts?
45) Can’t wait until I can get in the kitchen and start doing my Christmas cookie thing
46) Got to remember to start collecting addresses for my Christmas cards
47) Should I send a card to the same people I sent one last year? LOL, I don’t think some people appreciated my crafty efforts…but I guess you’ll have that from time to time.

Completely Random Thoughts- Part 6

All because Roddy said "catch ‘em"
1) I don’t think Fodder realizes how hard I work at holding back
2) Confession is good for the soul, but it’s not too good for the nose

6) Flip flops are funny things…
7) I wonder how many lives are ruined in the pursuit of mediocre ass?

17) Lust is fickle
18) Hell hath no fury like a flipflop discarded before all the snap is out of its sole.
19) I’m really having to work on this whole retribution and payback thing. I guess Roddy’s advice to get over IT and move the f*ck on really hit home.

Seems to happen to YOU a lot…LOL
20) I’m glad my world extends beyond the Okeechobee County line. Think how small and petty and dull my life would be if it were that limited

Ode to the Pilgrim People




Ode to the Pilgrim People

Oh, Pilgrim people, so plump and brown,
When you make your appearance,
I know the holidays have come around
Squat and serene, somberly atop my shelf
I just want to salt and pepper a-frenzy,
Unable to help myself
Memories of the holidays past,
Always heralded by your ad
Come flooding back with abandon
Making me smile, tear and laugh

You go home with me on Thanksgiving,
And then again on Christmas day
Other than that, here at work you will stay
Oh, Pilgrim people, my dear Pilgrim folks
Your presence on my desk has long been a joke
But as you cavort merrily each day (at least in my mind)
You’re a small reminder of the Season
And I try to be kind

Completely Random Thoughts- part 2

1) Apparently, when I want to talk, it's not that important
2) Even if people whose opinions I value, either for its honesty or insight, like something, it doesn’t help if I’m in the middle of a hair crisis.
3) I’m not vain, I’m self-conscious, there’s a difference.
4) God made puppies irresistible.
5) Uniform pants…sigh, not every man can wear them with impunity.
6) From what I have observed lately, a guilty conscience can be a motherf*cker—glad I’m not afflicted.
7) Boy, I miss my digital camera.
8) My granddaughter has enough personality for 3 grown drag queens.

10) Passive/aggressive behavior is the coward’s way out.

14) I’m really not feeling the snowman orgy this year, but I’ll give it one last go.
15) Even if you don’t want to say ‘no’, if you don’t say ‘yes’, then in fact, you are saying ‘no’ by default. Not being brave enough to face the fall out is no excuse to be evasive. And, in fact, by not being forthcoming, you have indeed precipitated the event you were hoping to avoid. (lol…bet Leslie won’t ask me if Jim’s still here or not anytime soon)
16) Not looking forward to the pelvic exam…wonder if the Dr. will grope my boobs again, since he already did it last month. If he does, should I look at him askance?
17) My bedroom is disgusting.

19) I need to see the ocean, or a mountain or the Ozarks in the fall—something indescribably beautiful and serene and soul-settling.

22) Blood is thicker than water…always. No matter the length of time or the depth of allegiance, there is no loyalty among strangers.
23) Andy Griffith is quality televison as is M*A*S*H.
24) He thought he had found a ‘hot tamale’ when what he really ended up with was a ‘pig in a blanket’…lol, found that on a website and it made me giggle.
25) PMS equals lots of food, bitchy attitude and the deep dark—good week to be me!
26) I can wear ivory, or cream, or ecru, but not white. Does that make me a fall or a winter?
27) Not terribly thirsty today.
28) I put my Pilgrim people (from the Publix commercial) on my desk last week. Color me in the holiday spirit.
29) I want a new vampire book.
30) According to the fashion guru (that would be my sister) women over 30 should not wear tube tops and mini skirts—I guess I need new clothes.
31) Slight headache behind my right eye and it is ouchie.
32) Someone told me today that I worry about what other people think too much—I don’t think I do, I just don’t live in a self-involved, egocentric bubble where I can afford to let #3 (the real Sharon) out to play.

33) On my computer stand: Pilgrim people, ladybug cake decoration, micrometer, staple puller, race car (McDonalds toy), calculator slash level slash tape measure slash pencil, shot glass from Hawaii filled with Sweet-n-Low, assorted business cards, pics of Lili, Grady and KK, note that says “bronze is by the inch”, a straight quilter’s pin, a daily reminder of patience and sacrifice, a shell with my name on it, 15 CD’s, post it notes, Eclipse gum, Pocket Ref (full of handy dandy formulas), and a sign that says “Sharon Rocks”
