…and what’s going on. I’m in a pissy, hateful, bitchy, skin you alive kind of mood today.
My sister was admitted into hospital yesterday and will be staying there for the duration of her pregnancy. She was bleeding again, worse this time. They say she had a contraction in the middle of the night and that caused the bleeding. Her placenta is pulling away from the uterine wall which is a sign of labor. If she has more contractions she could hemorrhage and bleed to death, so she’s where she needs to be so that if need be they can take the baby whenever they need to. Which means that my nephew could be born anytime now. Hopefully she can hold out until Feb. 16 when she was originally scheduled to have her C-section.
This Sunday is my birthday. Whatever. All my friends…I’m sorry did you not hear me…..ALL MY FRIENDS are busy. ALL OF THEM. Sooooooo, I have to figure out what the fuck to do this weekend to celebrate. If I don’t have plans by tomorrow night, I’m going to egg and toilet paper every single one of my asshole friend’s houses. I think that is more than fair, since I didn’t miss anyone’s birthday this past year and wait….let’s add up the dinner’s, presents, and drinks I went in on because I’m a good friend and care for people….yup, I think they’re getting off easy.
Do you know what one of my biggest pet peeves is? People drinking hot coffee through straws stuck in the sippy hole of the coffee lid. When I see this I want to knock the cup of coffee out of their hands. I’m not sure why this bothers me so much, but it does.
Why does everyone think Scarlett Johanson is such a good actress? I see her in a film and I want her to blow her nose (she always sounds like she’s stuffed up) and get a fucking personality. She’s a charisma bypass. She has the same dead stare and monotone voice in every fucking film she’s in. She’s one of those people who is lucky she’s pretty.
Remember that guy I told you all I had a crush on. Turns out that he’s in the hospital for a little while. Want to know why? Apparently he has genital warts and had an outbreak. To sooth this outbreak he started using a new cream which caused him to have a severe rash. Instead of going directly to the doctor, he let it go figuring it would go away on it’s own. Well, let’s just say my friend was surprised he didn’t need skin grafting to get things back in order in the crotch region. That’s just beyond gross. Don’t people wear condoms?
Did anyone watch Scrubs last night? No? Losers. They had a song on there called Guy Love and it’s the best thing I’ve seen in weeks. Go here to view and I dare you not to laugh.
Before I get to the stroke, I want to let you all in on an idea I have. I think one day each week I’m going to let someone “hijack” my blog. Meaning that someone can send me a post and I’ll put it up on here. The only rule is that it has to be funny. No politics or religion, unless it’s funny. Shit, I’ll even let you do a parody of me if you want. I’m doing this because I know I’m going to be insanely busy for the next couple weeks and I thought this would be fun. So email me your posts.
And now the stroking….
Sector-9: Miss Sarah is one of my first readers. She came from Marcia’s blog. Sarah is like the punkrocker of my blogroll. The anarchist. But with heart. She’s living in Israel and it’s quite amazing to read about current events from someone who lives there and isn’t getting paid by anyone to water it down. She’s a great read and you should go over there and leave a comment. She also posts some yummy recipes.
So this is my life!?!: I work with this lovely lady. She’s a personal friend of mine. Her desk is one row over from mine and if I talk loud she can hear me. Actually, I can hear her talking now. She’s funny and has an adorable 3 year old daughter who talks like she’s 30 years old. This lady knows my sense of humor and oftentimes we get laughing about something so hard that I almost pee my pants. Mostly, we’re laughing at LJ (cubicle neighbor) cause she’s nuts. Go check her out. Her blog is pretty new and she’s just getting into posting often. Leave a comment and say hi.
Softball Slut: The name of the blog makes me laugh. She loves softball. Even more than I ever did. I love her stories of softball games and family and trips. She’s got an adorable kitty. She’s freakin funny. Go check in regularly and you won’t be sorry.
The LJ Hour: This is not my cubicle neighbor, but someone I found in the weirdest of ways. I won’t get into it. But, I love her blog. She’s funny and a seriously talented photographer. Her dog is the cutest little thing. She writes about her life in NYC and her trips everywhere. She’s a big traveler and it’s cool to see the pictures of all of the places she goes and read the stories. Go over there now.
The Pink Shoe: Well now….there would be no Fresh Air Lover if it weren’t for Marcia. She’s a former work colleague and she’s the one who told me to start a blog. And she’s the one who told me to keep on blogging, even when I thought I had nothing to write about. So, if you love this blog you need to thank this little lady. She’s got crafts, food, and wit…oh and shoes…and she’s a good time. I think you should go over there now.
Have a good weekend.
Ewww – nothing kills a crush faster than imagining a crusty wart crotch! Ewwwweweewew blech!
I’m sorry all of your friends have let you down on your birthday. You definately deserve better friends than that. I say definately go with the egg/tp route…and don’t forget the shaving cream for their windows.
I will keep your sister in my prayers. It does sound like she’s in the best possible place she can be in. I hope she’s getting all the support she needs from her husband!
Happy Happy Birthday and it appears we seemed to be in a similar mood today.
Happy Birthday in advance. I’m sure your friends will come through for you. No one should be without celebration and debauchery on their birthday.
So is your crush now a “non-crush”? That’s just beyond nasty. You can’t play around with the netherregions.
And for the record, Ms. Resident Sexpert, everyone knows that condoms don’t protect against genital warts…unless he’s wearing a pair that covers his balls, ass and everything else in between. Bloggers are depending on you for correct sex info!
Weekends off: My friends are all cut off. Seriously.
edtime: Yup. I’m not very nice today.
S*: Of course he’s a non-crush. So, we’re nitpicking today. I’m so in the mood. This isn’t my sex blog so I can say whatever I want. It was a general observation. And yes, condoms do help in the prevention of spreading HPV and genital warts and all of the other nasty shit out there.
Happy Early Birthday 🙂
I will send you a virtual drink…very little good it would do ya 😦
I am now off to go visit the blogs you listed!! You always have the best blogs you read 🙂
Deb – It sounds to me like your friends are the same kinds of people as my friends… They love it when you do for them but as soon as you ask for an ounce of it back suddenly everyone is INSANELY busy… And it would be believable if it happened once in a while, but EVERY TIME… Jeez. They deserve to be cut off.
As for the crush and his creeping crotch crud, ummmmm…. EW. Just be glad you found out now and this way as opposed to later and another, much less pleasant way.
I don’t get Scarlet either. I see her on Letterman or what have you and she can NOT have a conversation. I don’t see the appeal at all on so many levels. Rumors have it she is making a cover album of Tom Waits tunes. I can’t take it!!
Happy B’day…if you were closer we’d have you over for cake.
Hey,,,hope you have a good birthday even if your friends let you down.
Don’t feel bad, mines on the 31st and I won’t have anyone celebrating with me either.
Sending prayers for your sister and your little nephew.
#1. thank you for getting me out of the DC blog-o-hell for 5 minutes and listening to me b*tch 🙂
#2. yes, i want to give scarlett j. a shot of dayQuill
#3. I hope your sister is OK!!
“Charisma Bypass” would be a good name for a band.
I hope your sister is OK. I’m sure she will be. I’ll be thinking of you!
Happy Early Birthday! Sounds like you and I have the same “friends.”
if that’s the case, then I’m sorry.
I need to ask… did your now Non-Crush tell you about his…misfortune? Did he think if he peeled away his skin with that cream he would rid himself of warts?
I have someone on the commute to work EVERY DAY that drinks her coffee from those straws. She is the most miserable human on the planet, and I loathe her. I can’t wait for the day she sucks out piping hot coffee and it burns her entire mouth with that coffee. Maybe she’ll shut the fuck up then.
Scarlett= Charisma Bypass. I love it! I admit she’s got a great rack, but those dead shark eyes and snout face… & I HATED her in Ghost World. Good call!
WAIT A MINUTE– just read March’s post– Scarlett’s covering a Tom Waits album??? What the Mother Fuck is that all about?
I know this isn’t your sex blog. And I guess you thought I was nitpicking. Perhaps I was but didn’t mean to come across as mean or nasty by any means. Just meant that for all you know the guy has never had unprotected sex in his life and got screwed. And it’s true…many of us read both of the blogs. I like to think you know what you’re talking about.
fleas: Thanks. I need a drink today.
lizzle: My friends are assholes. And so is wart crotch.
march: I had no idea she can sing. By the way she talks, it sounds like she’s tone deaf.
pass me: Thanks chickie.
scarlett: No problem. We all get in funks. I’m in one today. I’m super cranky.
joey: That’s a pretty good idea.
rosie: I hardly ever spoke with this crush. And I didn’t like her in Ghost World either. She played the same part she plays all of the time.
s*: I’m really bitchy today, so that’s why I took offense to the comment. I’m tired. I know people can get warts even wearing a condom, but like I said it was just a general statement. No thought went into it. And I do know what I’m talking about, even when I speak rubbish. I’m just not in the mood today at all. I hissed at Greasy….yes hissed. That’s the mood I’m in.
Happy Early Birthday!! It always sucks when your birthdays are let downs because you think that no matter how crappy the rest of the year is, your birthday will revive you. And when that doesnt happen it is just too sad. So I will have a drink for/with you in honor of you!!
P.S. Thanks for the mention and heartfelt comments. *muuaahh* besos
Oh and who doesnt love Pink Shoe Mar See Yah? 🙂
Hey Deb… I’ve got an idea! We need to call all of our “friends.” We tell them that we are getting them all together to go bowling or something… And when they all end up ditching us to do other things you and I can get together and booze it up!
Seriously, what is wrong with these people that they don’t realize how awesome we are and how good they have it on the rare occasion that they are in good with us?
Happy Birthday Deb! Birthdays always suck in my opinion.
Love,
Jaime
Best wishes and thoughts on your sister.
I had heard a lot about Scarlett Jo-however its spelled but the first movie I saw her in was The Island. I was shocked at how bad an actress she was, but then I thought maybe that was just Ewan blowing her off the screen. But then I saw her in something else and she still sucked so the jury is in. And personally I don’t even find her all that hot so I don’t know exactly what her broad appeal is.
“I’m in a pissy, hateful, bitchy, skin you alive kind of mood today.”
Debbie, one of the things “the editorial we” like about you is that even when you are having a bad day and are in the kind of mood described above, you still make room for others. In other words, you are generous enough of spirit … thoughtful and nice … to take the time to make sure others are taken care of.
Just an example, and we’ve seen things like this from you before: In today’s entry, you describe various disappointments, (your friends bailing on celebrating your birthday with you; the guy you had a crush on turning out to be not so desirable after all), peeves and annoyances … and then, in the wake of all that and in almost the same breath, you go on to stroke various folks and encourage your readers to visit their blogs “right now.”
That empathy and thoughtfulness for others represents a generosity of spirit that — combined with audacious writing talent — makes you a very special person, one who deserves to be acknowledged and appreciated.
Your regular readers certainly appreciate you, Debbie. Although we can’t be “there” for you, we’re “here” for you. Happy Birthday.
Hope you have a fab bday…whatever you do. If I lived closer to you, I’d take you out to dinner. Your real friends suck, so do mine.
*waving the white flag and backing out of the room*
We all get bitchy. And I do think you know what you’re talking about. Have a fabulous birthday.
softball: Thanks. I haven’t had a bad birthday in a long time.
lizzle: It’s because I’m single. I know it.
jaime: Thanks honey!!!
shadowdog: Thank you for thinking of my sister.
joey: You’re so sweet. Thanks for the kind words. I really needed that.
helpmebubba: Thanks sweetie.
s*: Truce. I know I’m cranky. I’m going to bed early and having a fresh start tomorrow.
I hope everything works out for your sister. How scary.
You need some new friends, yours are fucked!! If you were here i would get you blind, magotted drunk and find you a hot Aussie guy to shag 😉
Happy Birthday gorgeous!
ood. Kinda good you found out about the warts n stuff. Sorry about your shitty friends and lack of birthday plans. I’m sure something will pop up. If not then you should drink water until you get water intoxication and end up in the hospital. Then they’ll all be sorry!!!!!
We all have these days. You’re absolutely allowed.
I concur with everybody else; your friends suck. I really hope they read your blog so that they know how much they suck.
I hope you find something fabulous to do for your birthday…and may this year bring you friends who are there for you as much as you’re there for them.
Happy early birthday!! Wanted to get that out in case I don’t make it back before Sunday.
I invite you to come on over and watch the Saints kick the Bears ass. You already know we won’t be here so you’ll have the run of the house and the kitties. The booze is all ready to go. The tv is nice and huge (70″ HD widescreen) so you’ll have no trouble locating us in the stands freezing our asses off.
Oh yeah, we have snow and they’re predicting more for Sunday. So that’s even more of a reason to come on by.
I think it’s time to find new friends. Or at least kick their asses to hell and back.
I’m sending good thoughts and well wishes to your sister.
The first thought I had about your sister was, “At least her husband can’t treat her as bad in a place as public as a hospital.” I feel she’s safer. And I hope she goes full-term.
What a way to end a crush!! Complete and total yuckness.
Happy Birthday, Sweetie!
If I were there, we’d go out!! I’m huge about birthdays, and no one should spend theirs alone unless they absolutely want that. End statement.
And the gential warts? Yeah. That’s not hot.
“charisma bypass”, LOVED IT. Thanks for making me smile and you bet your sweet ass I’m going to use that phrase every.chance.I.get.
I’m sorry to hear about your sister, but SO GLAD that she’s in the hospital. I think it’s good that she has a medical staff looking out for her and the little one, and making sure that she gets the rest she needs.
You’re a terrific sister, and a much better friend than your “friends” deserve.
Happy (early) Birthday!
First of all you sexy wench, Happy Birthday! I would come over and lick you all over your face right now if it would cheer you up (or gross you out, either one!)
I missed Scrubs the other night and I was PISSED (damn nursing boards!) so I am SO glad you posted that video!!!!
CP.
Oh yeah. Please email me your mailing address. I am sending you a prezzie.
