Gotta Go

Ciao.

Something's fishy

I had ONE visitor today and for the last 3 hours or so I did not receive one single Spam mail in either my hotmail or gmail account. Now, something is going on here.

My new favorite song

Well actually it's two. One, that's on the Radio right now (Radio Hamburg from Hamburg Germany), is "Fuck It" by Eamon. I am trying to find the other one right now. I can't find her name but the song is called "Endlich" (German for finally) and it's kind of jazzy, hip hop -ish. I like it. I looked her up yesterday and now I can't find her name anywhere.
Well, I'll find it.

Who stole it????

Somebody took my Sitemeter and I want it back!
Believe me, you don't want to see me mad.

Would it be possible?

To just sneak out of here and start the weekend just a little early? I don't think so, but at least I can dream about it. Whatever I thought earlier is not true. This day is yet another slow one. I think I am just way too full of energy in the morning and I get so much stuff done and then once I ate lunch I feel like taking a nap and end up just looking at the clock. Well, I do some work, but all of the morning energy is completely gone. Especially on Fridays.

Hello?

Anybody out there?

UPDATE: Thanks to the one person finding his or her way over here through Ted.
Ha, I knew it was you.

Almost there!

I just hope that the rest of the day passes as quickly and quietly as it has been. I really can't wait to get home and relax. I finally got my adapter for the Ethernet Port yesterday so I get to hook up my Router tonight.
This weekend we'll clean the house. I do the bathrooms and laundry (as always) and y husband will do all the floors and some cabinets. I hope we're done with this by tomorrow afternoon so we can enjoy the rest of the weekend.
other than that nothing big is planned this weekend. My mom already got her flowers and loves them, although she is mad at me for spending money....but then she says that with everything because she "never" wants any present. Right.
So, so far it's been a good day.

No More :(

Too bad, but there will be no more Friday Five.
I can understand it though. Who knows, maybe somebody else will come up with something.

Kids in Wet Clothes?

I swear. Somebody searched for that and somehow ended up over here. People do the weirdest things.

.....

After painful waiting and unendurable work, I am finally ready to go home and actually enjoy the rest of the day.
Something is wrong with the trains though. Nothing delayed but they said to expect crowding. Well, I better be getting a spot to sit or I am gonna go postal. Poor me.

Ciao.

S-L-O-W Day

I am telling you. I am either starting a new phase or the last couple of weeks are just passing by way too slowly.
Do you remember when you were little and time just flew by? And now that you're older it just takes more time. See, I think I am at the next step where time goes by slower. Whatever, but lately I really feel like I am too much away from home.
Weird.

Time to say Good Bye

Well, tonight is the last episode of our beloved Friends and I figured I better post something to bring a little entertainment in here.
James has a very good list of links that you guys might enjoy.
I don't want to dwell on how great Friends is and how much I will miss it and now my Thursdays are just going to be bleak (not! CSI is still on). I just wanted to say that it is kind of sad but it's a TV show. I like it but I don't depend on it.
I must confess though I do have all of their seasons on DVD, that is up to the 7th, since the rest is not released yet. I also just pre-ordered their farewell DVD or whatever the heck it is, but I am not going to cry...really. Well, maybe a little.

Ok, there goes the entertainment post, but at least I posted something, right?

Look at the Time!!!!

Oh am I glad. My stomach started making all those weird noises and I was getting worried I wasn't going to make it. I'll have a nice salad, my husband made for me last night. I didn't want to eat it then (no green food for me, thank you very much) so he made me take it to work today. Isn't he sweet? But to balance all that healthy food out I also have a big bowl of mac & cheese. Did I ever mention that I put lots of ketchup in my mac & cheese? It is so yummy.
Ok, better get ready. LUNCH TIME!!!!!

Got 'em

Ok, I just went to get my Powerball tickets. Jackpot's at $205 Million. I got five tickets this time so maybe I'll get at least a couple of bucks. The store was packed too. It wasn't even open for more than 40 minutes and there must have been about 10 people in line. It's gonna get full there. I almost want to go there at lunch just to see how many people fit in there....
So, if you won't hear from me for a while after Saturday, I'll be traveling the world. But first I have to get a lawyer and financial consultant. I take applications now.

Almost the weekend!!

This week seems slow somehow.
I don't know why but I keep thinking it's Friday. Oh well, it is really beautiful outside today. It's supposed to be in the upper 70's this afternoon which sounds like an evening on the porch to me.
I have to call my insurance company AGAIN today since they keep changing my address back to the old one. About every day I get policy change letter in the mail because of the address.

I am almost done reading my book, which will complete the Vampire Chronicles for me. I am getting anxious though because my Amazon order hasn't arrived yet, so I might have to go to Borders across the street. We'll see. At the latest I'll go tomorrow and then I am sure tomorrow evening I'll get my shipment.

Don't forget that Mother's Day is coming up!!! You better be nice! It's kind of funny because I am "just" a step mom, but I do get a little something and I think it's so sweet. Last year they got me a new flat screen monitor!!! Cool, ey?
I am so happy because I ordered those beautiful flowers for my mom. I had to have them delivered tomorrow though, since they don't deliver on Sunday's in Germany and on Saturday my parents won't be home. But still. Gotta love the Internet. It's cool too, because I always though it would cost way too much to order CDs at amazon.de but it really isn't that expensive so I'll be putting an order together over there. The stupid thing is though that the wish lists are different. I have to keep two separate ones, but oh well.

Ok, that's it for now. I really need to get some work done today or else I feel worthless.

No Money!!

Not even a buck. Stupid Lottery. I was so sure I would win. But luckily nobody else did either so I guess Saturday is the big day!!!!!

The end is near

Well it's actually here.
Had a great day although it was long. I can't wait to go home and EAT! I am starving. Maybe I'll have a nice glass of wine or two. There should be an open bottle somewhere, but then there's always a bottle open at my house.
Ciao.

All gone

Ok, well no more gmail for all of you out there...at least not from me.

Schade

Ist es wirklich.
Ich bin aufs Kaifu Gymnasium gegangen und war somit immer gleich um die Ecke. Wir haben frueher die Turnhalle des ETVs benutzt. Ich glaube ich waere sogar fast mal Mitglied beim ETV geworden, aber bin dann doch zum TSV Stelingen gegangen. Komisch wie sich alles aendert.
Dabei faellt mir wieder ein dass ich immer noch nicht den Neubau am Kaifu gesehen habe, obwohl ich letztes Jahr in Hamburg war.

I know why

Just found that article via The Drudge Report.

A 14-year-old girl was beaten unconscious by several other girls at a chaperoned dance for middle school honors students, police said.

This happened at a dance for honor roll students. Not that they are any better, but usually you find that those students stay out of trouble because they concentrate on school and don't have any time for teenage bullshit. Note, this does not apply to my stepdaughter. She still gets in trouble. More on that later.
But You know why? Because of the "everybody-wins policies". They let almost the whole school go to those dances because almost everybody makes honor roll. Not just A students or A/B students.
Back to my stepdaughter, she made the A, B, C+ honor roll! Not that wasn't great effort and we are proud but it doesn't teach anything to kids. So what's next? ABCDF? Stupid.

One to go...

Ok you people, I only have one gmail account left now.
Doesn't anybody want their privacy to be invaded???
Remember, you can never have enough e-mail accounts.

Slow Down!!!!

Not everybody at once. So many people want those gmail accounts. NOT.
Well fine then, I keep 'em all.

No More

I am drained and ready to go.
Ciao.

I'm gonna be rich!!!!!

Just bought some Powerball tickets!!!!!
For tomorrow's drawing the jackpot is at $170 Million.

Anybody want gmail?????

I just saw that I can invite two people to join the wonderful and great world of gmail.
Anybody interested?
If not, I could sell it on ebay, not?

UPDATE: Just e-mail, me at Blogeline@gmail.com

Chaos

Do you know that when all of a sudden everything turns chaotic???
Ok, so last night we get ready to go to bed. 10.5 is over we turn the TV off and my husband remembers to take the trash out since tomorrow is trash day. I say that I'll get the new trash bags from the basement since we're out upstairs. Well, where did I put them? See, we had a roll of trash bags when we moved, but I buy those in bulk so I usually have a box full of those, but I can't find them. So, we look all over the house. ALL over. But no trash bags. I feel bad because I know there were there but I must have misplaced them and we look for something that we could use instead for now. After a while we decide we look in the garage again since we had all of those boxes sitting there and maybe we missed that one. No. No trash bags. So, we decide that it really was time to go to sleep now and.....locked the garage door.....no keys!!!! Fun, ey?
So, what shall we do? Daughter sleeps upstairs but hardly ever wakes up with an alarm clock. It's raining outside. So, my husband goes around the house and rings the door bell, calls for his daughter and after about 15 minutes I hear that he is inside. He opens the door, let's me in and we go to bed an hour after we planned to do so without accomplishing anything. Boy, did I have a good night sleep.

It's Time

I'll go bak to my screwed up computer at home...
Ciao.

Dumb!!!

That is all I can say. I feel really dumb. So, I went out and got my cable modem and because I am very "safe" I decided to get a Router too, since that one has a firewall as well. Well, wouldn't you know that my stupid f*****g computer doesn't have an Ethernet port thingie. How stupid am I, so I bought an adapter today. But my USB Hub is acting up, my PC doesn't see it anymore. It says that the connection speed is too low. I had that before and all I did was restart the computer and unplug the hub and then plug it back in when I needed it. Well, surely I will not run modem using that hub. After all I do have two slots, but I have a printer that uses a USB cable, pus I only have one printer port but two printers and then I have my digital camera. So many things and I am the stupid idiot trying to figure it all out. Soon, I will have that whole computer completely destroyed because I don't know anything about it but act like it.
And what was my solution? I am looking around for a new computer, but I don't need an extra monitor since I already have one extra one in the basement. I don't know.
I need a really good book to read that'll teach me something more about all that. All those "Computer 101" books at home just don't do it for me....or maybe I just never really read them.

????

For some reason I thought I ahd posted a very witty post already, bu NO, I forgot!!!!!! So of course now I am completely thoughtless and have absolutely nothing to write about.
Nice weekend. Got my cable modem and installed everything just fine...well a little trouble but I figured it out and fixed it.
