Just a few things

Can I get an Amen its Friday!! AMEN! okay..back to business. The workplace has hit a serious drought and I am forced to stay awake by reading anything that catches my eye on the Internet. Here are some interesting things from this week.

Bo Bice gets a massage in Lincoln:
Just found this story this morning. Random on two levels, it was Bo Bice and he was in Lincoln and decided to get a massage? I just found the article totally ridiculous. It just went on and on about how the manager had to confess to him that everyone in her salon had voted for him....riiiight. I would have responded with "prove it" or "I don't believe you." and this is why I can never be a celebrity. I'm sure he hasn't heard that one before. My favorite part was the following:

The women at Utopia have fun in their down time. They talk about many things, like the hot guys on TV. Deidra and Sherry both have photo shrines to Patrick Dempsey taped behind the front desk. Sherry sits on the right as you come in, Deidra on the left. Sherry also has a shrine to Jon Bon Jovi. Deidra has one to Matthew McConaughey. They share a hand-lotion dispenser in the middle, which Sherry decorated with photos of Patrick Dempsey on one side, Rob Lowe on the other.

That's just what Bo Bice wants to see/hear. Your shrine to guys you think are hot. I think the medical term for their behavior is PSYCHO.

Do you know what could be in your can of Red Bull:
I have been on a energy drink kick lately but got curious just how much more caffeine am I benefiting from by purchasing overpriced beverages. Turns out a cup of coffee actually has more caffeine than a can of Red Bull, but Red Bull has twice the amount of caffeine as a can of Coke. The real interesting fact below about made me throw up in my mouth a little:

In its natural form, taurine is derived from animal tissue, usually bull bile or semen; however, the taurine used in the Red Bull drink is produced synthetically.

I feel better knowing this because I was worried I was not getting enough bull bile or semen in my diet...

The Rosy and Elisabeth feud:
I found this hilarious! The first video is of the actual feud:

The following video is of Alicia Silverstone snubbing Elisabeth that same day. I'm pretty sure she came out after the "fight":

just had to post

Being too bored at work I have been looking up some of my favorite foods from restaurants and hanging my head in shame. For the love...they hide a lot of "not good for you" it everything! My latest shocker was Chipolte. I HEART this place...well used to. I remember when they came to Lincoln, NE and we would probably go once a day because it was awesome! Well here's the bad news. I looked up a Chicken burrito with rice, the fajita veggies, cheese, tomato salsa and green salsa(because that's what i usually get)...here are the facts!'

CALORIES 1049
FAT 45
SODIUM 3508
CARBS 110

FOR ONE STUPID BURRITO!! I always wondered why I had to BEACH myself like a whale after eating one of those. It is almost as bad as one piece of Classic Coffee Cake from Starbucks....450 Calories!

Its the Catholic guilt thing...

One of the main reasons I started up this blog was to vent my frustrations from work. I still have a very ex-coworker but things have been slightly better since we had "the talk." I never got a chance to blog about it but it was horrible. I know she still loathes me, maybe more than I loathe her. But I got out what I felt and she was told to change. Well, the magic fairy dust that made her somewhat easier to work with has started to wear off. My latest favorite is from this morning. I was checking in someone for a test that has very strict ID requirements. This examinee did not have the proper ID and she had to return home to get her ID. It happens more than we like but its just something that happens. So, the girl was gone getting her ID and I was just avoiding her eye contact and then she spoke:

" I almost asked if she had the correct ID when she came in. I don't know what it was but I just had this feeling to ask her. But then you started to talk to her and I thought well thats okay."

So it was my fault that I was HELPING someone and disrupted her prediction. All I could say was " I'm sorry?" The day had just begun so I know she is just going to be a spit fire today...might be a 3 drink lunch today...oh wait I used my last 10.00 to buy gas last night. I will go see if I can find any mouth wash....

I need a bigger plate...mine is full

Another gorgeous day and I am stuck inside...rotting away with janet.

Since school got out and we entered into the summer months or as I like to call it "What picture frame am I going to dust today?" or "How many times will CNN.com change top stories in the course of 8 hours?", I have been left with a lot of time to think, which then leads to worrying and then usually ends in panic. For example: the notion that I might some day graduate. Its a fairy tale I have been living for 8 years ( I can feel my mom shuddering) and the happy ending is hidden behind the evil witch also known as "degree requirements." In a matter of 1 hour, one of the days this week, I decided that I need to start doubling up on school, meaning take more classes and do so at two different institutions. Say hello to my old friend, NO LIFE.

I then also decided that since I will need more money to reach my goal of insanity, I need a part-time job. Thats it! Have a full-time job, go from 6 credit hours to 15 and add a part-time job on top. And the real sad part is, I'm not really dreading it. I am honestly looking forward to being busy non-stop. Its going to be a good challenge and I'm just hoping to be able to finish my fairy tale in about two years!

Why did I decide to start again with poop?

I'm excited to be blogging again! Its been way too long and it seems like everyday I think of something I want to post but was too lazy...here we go.

I think to start again, my first post should be about poop. Read this article and here are my favorite comments! I am totally grossed out about this but I guess it must happen all the time.

Sorry...nothing earth shattering for today. I got to get back into this. Plus I only have 13 minutes of work left.

Until tomorrow...
