Have This Problem?

Do any of you have a wife/husband/girlfriend/boyfriend/whatever that while they are working won't stop calling you? I cannot complete any task around the house without receiving a phone call about something that is completely unimportant.

Most of the time, the conversation revolves around food. Here's a little information. Skinny people don't think about food all day long!!! Leave me alone! I don't care what's for dinner 10 hours from now! I just woke up and the thought of food makes me want to vomit! When I'm at work, sometimes I'm so busy that I forget to eat. I'm not about to call and bother you asking, "What's for dinner?"

A lot of the time the conversation is, "What are you doing?" Well, I'm at home doing your laundry, cleaning, taking care of your children while you sit on your ass at work because I don't have a job and you won't buy me a nice vehicle.

When I go to work, I work. It's that simple. I'm there to do a job and not call home all the damn time. I have peoples' lives in my hands. The odd thing is that he does too! You would think that would require his complete attention.

Now, here's the kicker. The pharmacist gets home and hardly says a word because he is glued to the couch and watching television. Drives me fucking crazy!!! Sometimes I just want to take a baseball bat to the television. I don't sit around on my lazy ass watching television all day long! With 3 dogs and a large house, there's always something to do.

The moral of this story. If you have a job and don't actually do it and feel the need to call your significant other all the time while at said job, stop it! Your significant other will probably appreciate it!

Week in Review

I hope that all of you have had a pleasant week. I know, I know. It was hotter than hell and it's only going to get hot again next week. I've always stuck by my belief that Summer is the worst season and people who just love the shit out of it and then complain about how hot it gets are complete and utter morons. Guess what folks; it's the South, it's going to get hot EVERY Summer no matter what! If you say, "I can't wait until Summer," and then complain about the heat, I'm going to tell you to eat shit because you are stupid.

Last weekend I attended a wonderful wedding in Mississippi. I must say, that it felt warmer down there than up here. Maybe it was because I actually went outside while I was there and pretty much stay indoors in Arkansas. Who knows? All I can say is that the wedding was first class and the exact way that I prefer it. No tacky crap, great food, wonderful floral arrangements (I won't even tell you how much they cost), great entertainment, and of course more than one open bar. I was able to get some great ideas for my own ceremony if that actually ever happens.

As for Mississippi, Jesse loved it. I knew that he would. He loved it so much so that he wants to move there. I can understand his enthusiasm. Hob-nobbing with senators is a far cry from growing up in crystal-meth city Harrisburg. However, what in the hell would I do when I got there. I refuse to move anywhere with a population smaller than that of Jonesboro.

I finally got the bathroom painted. Originally, I was going to hire somebody to paint it and the bedroom. However, I have become insanely bored sitting in this house and decided that I could do it myself. Well, I did and I'm trying to get used to the color. I'm going to have to wait until the wallpaper is up to decide if I like it. I've picked a Candice Olson design that will look lovely and should make my master suite feel like a "Divine Design." I'll share pictures only when I'm finished.

Mother decided to get away for the weekend, so I'm keeping Sophie. Needless-to-say, she is driving my dogs crazy. I have to give it to Liesel. Sophie bites the hell out of her playing and Liesel doesn't get mad. She gently plays back with her knowing that she is much bigger than Sophie. I love my sweet girl and will miss her when I start back to school in just over 2 weeks.

I hope that you all have a fabulous weekend. I'm home alone for this one. Until next week...
