    “Shut up, Mac!”

    O. Friggin’ K.  I hear you LOUD AND CLEAR.

    I’m done.

    This is THEE last time this damn laptop is going back to HP.

    Stupid ass POS! Every time it goes into hibernation mode, I not only lose the wireless connection, now the damn screen won’t turn back on. AT ALL.  And the Bill Gates fix-all (turn off and on until it’s fixed) doesn’t even work anymore!

    I’m laptopless *wiggling eyebrows* for awhile since I am sending this one back.

    Now I need to REBACKUP stuff and delete all the damn porn off this thing!

    Go ahead, “Told you so, should have bought a Mac!”

    Memories

    “What can I do to make you feel better?”
    “Go get coffee.”
    “Huh? How will that make you feel  better?”
    “Go get coffee.”
    “Alright.”
    *staggering down to casino and drank two cups of coffee*
    “Where did you go?”
    “I went to go get coffee.”
    “Why did you do that?”
    “You told me to go get coffee!”
    “I said, GO GET COMFY!”

    2 days later and all that captain is finally out of my system…and I haven’t had coffee since then.

    Why?

    Why do we keep doing the same things over and over?

    Why did I spend the last 48 hours with about 5 good hours of sleep driving kids here, there, back again, to the doctors, to the orthodontist appointments, to the mall, to get food, here, there and back again…when tomorrow they won’t even remember how many miles I drove to make sure they had the right dress for the dance and their teeth were and lungs were safe?

    Why?  At what point do they come up to you 24 hours (or even 4 hours) and say, “Hey, remember how you did that for me? What can I do for you?”

    I’m guessing, oh…never.

    What a weekend

    This was one of the busiest weekends in a long time. I did more on Friday than I have all month.While borrowing Dan’s truck, I managed to lock the keys in the car, while it was running. I swear, If I had a brain I would be dangerous.

    Saturday night was Alyx’s belated birthday party. She decided to invite 7 friends to watch the Hannah Montana concert at the movie theater.
    I thought it was sweet to see all the parents getting involved in their children’s favorite singer. The mothers (and a few fathers) did his whole “Hannah Dress-up” including sparkle shirts and wigs.
    Somewhere after the Jonas Brothers part, I snuck off to the bathroom. The bathroom was the unofficial ‘omg, i hate hannah montana club’. One of the mothers came out of the stall and had to readjust her wig. She glanced in the mirror at me and then said, “I LOVE your wig!” This is where I turned red and admitted that it wasn’t a wig.

    On Sunday, Shaun and I picked up Dan for the superbowl party. Somewhere after the kick off I headed to the bar. It doesn’t matter who you are, if I want you to be my friend…damn it, you will be. I made about 25 friends in the ‘cigar smoking’ section and somehow ended up smoking a cigar all night. By the end of the night when Dan and Shaun came to fish me out of the ‘fun section’, I was best friends with a former Sacramento Kings player, a pin-up model, the Cigar guys, a 60 year old war veteran and the Jamaican bartender.

    Today I grabbed the dogs and headed out to the dog park. Halo and McLovin had this thing they do…they sniff the person in the park, sniff the dogs and then they try to herd the dog back to the owner. This isn’t a thing I taught them, it’s just one of those annoying things I have to learn to curb. Halo has learned my hand commands and certain words. When a new dog comes to the gate, I put my hand into a fist and give a call that sounds like, “IGHT”. She comes and stands in front of me and waits until the dog comes in and waits for “Ok”. Without this command, all the dogs bombard the new dog coming in and Halo doesn’t like the crowding, even though she is the one that is throwing herself in the middle of it.
    Today a guy brought a very aggressive pit bull to the park. I had already leased McLovin, but Halo was still playing with the other Border Collie. When he let his dog off the leash the pit ran full force towards Halo’s new friend. Halo went into full stride and right before the pit grabbed the Collie by the neck, Halo knocked him off course and came back to me to be leased when I called. The other Collie jumped into his owners arms. I leashed up the dogs and we went home.

    The girls all got their hair trimmed Saturday. Shea had a big date with her dad. I brought her to the store and helped her pick something. Keep in mind, this is the daughter that is your full fledged tom-boy. I wanted to get her something she would wear more than once. When she tried on her outfit, she thought she was something special. I even let her get a pair of kitten heel shoes. She spent the day figuring not only how to walk in heels, but how to RUN in them.

    Hope everyone had a super busy weekend like I did…because misery loves company ;)
