• Sunshiny Sunday

  I have noticed that my local politicians now campaigning to keep their jobs are not even bothering to lie about what they're going to do for us if re-elected.  They are simply telling us how bad their opponent is.  As if I and thousands of other thoughtful voters aren't noticing their lack of details about what they plan to do with our future.  I already voted, if they had an R after their name I chose them.  Can't be any worse than having all these's D's in office.

  Heres a fun little video for ya....If you're a democrat and it hurts your feelings feel free to just it shut it down...This is always an option in Teriland, this ain't no nanny state 

   

  And yes, I know, the R's in office suck too...that's why I'm advocating the replacment of EVERYONE who is now in office.  Let's start fresh & see what happens. 

  I'm sitting in my dining room, typing on my new laptop (I fried the old one...water & electronics do not mix..public service announcement)  listening to the gentle sounds of Nate welding something in my driveway.  Someday I'm almost certain I will be able to once again park in my garage.

  Got a "promotion" at work.  From Financial Counselor to Financial Coodinator.  The difference?  One week in 5 I have to sit out in the booth all day long and take appointments with folks who have no insurance but need to get some procedure or test done, and figure out if they can get it for free.  It's been interesting.  My first "client" was a beep beep beep - edited for job security reasons 

  I gotta brand new boyfriend. (sang to the tune of Steve Holy's Gotta a Brand New Girlfriend)  No, really, I do.  His name is John and he's crazy about me and scares the shit outta me, but I'm trying to roll with it.  He saw me in June on Tagged and thought I was someone he knew from high school so he left me a message.  We started talking from there, then the phone, and in Sept I let him come here and meet in person.  Ok, before you holler at me for letting him come here, he works for the city of Akron, knew where I lived, had driven by, and I had Mr. Smith & Wesson hiding in the flower box behind me.  Ok, I didn't have the gun, but Nate was in the garage, 2 steps from where we were on the back porch.  So yeah, he's got it bad. Me, not as bad as him, but I do like him.  I'm just not used to all this niceness...honesty...togetherness.  I had to sit him down a couple weeks ago and tell him he had to give me some room cuz I was freaking out with all the togetherness  *L*  Funny thing is that he took it all in, patiently accepted it and backed off, all while letting me know he wasn't going anywhere unless I wanted him to.  So....I dunno.  Roll with it, baby.

  So, statistics - he's 54, has worked for the city for 20 yrs (pension), divorced for 2 yrs, has a 13 yr old daughter (drama, child support), doesn't have a Harley but lit up when I mentioned I was lookin for a Harley & a pension plan  *L*   He's a lot bigger than the men I have dated in the past - bigger as in stocky.  He's Italian/American.  He swore he knew me from somewhere and through talking we have found that his cousin was my counselor in jr high school and another cousin worked with my sister & brother in law, and looking thru my picture albums he recognized Nate's dad and the friends we had at the time we were together...so quite possibly we have been in the same circles like 30 yrs ago and he, of course, noticed beautiful lil me while I was totally unaware of him  *LOL*  what a bitch, huh?  *g*

  I'm sure I'll screw it up somehow.

  Alrighty then, I have food to prepare for a retirement lunch thingy at work tomorrow.  You kids have a wonderful evening ~ You know I will!
