Today's Horoscope~ You'll want to go out and play, regardless of the fact that it's a school night. Resistance is futile. All you can do is plan to take a nap after work tomorrow. You know, dear Libra, you don't have to be at everyone's beck and call all the time. You know just how exhausting this can actually be, and how much you can get out of contact with yourself. You should try and take some time out today to take a good look at your life to see where you are going. Go for a walk, or take a nice long bubble bath. Things will seem much clearer after a day of relaxation and reflection.

I guess I misinterpreted everything S & I said about finding a place together. He says he can't live with a cat & I told him that I am not getting rid of my cat. It personally think it's a lame cop-out for his fear of commitment issues. He apologized for my misunderstanding if I was lead to believe otherwise. I got pissed off & to top it all off today is the first game of the Stanley Cup finals & I offered to make us a special ding ding then he said no, another night meaning I again don't get to see him. He's starting w/ the Monday, Tuesday +/- alone time again. Not to mention he made plans with the guy for this past weekend even though he didn't really go out Saturday night & all of his plans did not include me. I'm sick of going back & forth & all he could do last night was give me a shocked face ( =l ). I didn't say much after that. One of the last things I said was "If our relationship is not going to move forward because of my cat then I guess I was wrong about us." He only responded with the face as before :l Then I didn't write back until I logged off saying only gn & btw it would be nice if I could borrow those 13 Bruce CDs to burn for BG. I logged off before he had a chance to really say anything. Well he had enough time if he wasn't so busy to read the im right when I sent it but apparently he was too busy.�

Word of advice: Be careful when making complaints at a tanning salon. The fucker set the timer for 20 minutes when I had told him I am rarely in the sun & obviously pale white. Well not anymore. I didn't pay attention, fell asleep listening to the music & now I have a severe sun burn. My entire back is lobster red & the front is too. Ever had the back of your knees burnt? It's not very fun. I had to take 1200 mgs of Ibuprofen & a darvocet just to be able to lay down in bed too bad they had worn off by the time I woke up - it hurt like hell to even move enough to hit the snooze button.�

I'm just so blah today, blame it on the darvocet or the BS numbness I feel now from last night but I am just blah. I did watch about 10 of the 12 Sex in the City season 6 pt 1 last night. Or maybe it was only 9. I don't remember but since I am not going to be watching the game with someone� then I will just finish watching that unless there is something better on.�

Did I mention I got dressed up & went out last Friday? I decided to have some fun & post pics of me getting all ready & gussied up. I started that textamerica moblog thing so you can check out the pics here. I'm going to stop right here now for today. I should probably do some actual work for a little while today.�

This coming Friday J, sexyatheist, GE & myself are meeting up for dinner & then going out dancing. It will be the second dland meet up we all have had together & I can't wait. I sent an email invite to S but I doubt he'll actually want to go after all it is something that I want to do.�

Here's a little filly forward my mom sent me. My family originally were southerners so I got raised up learning these terms, I reckon.

Southernosity

Only a Southerner knows the difference between a hissy fit and a
conniption fit, and that you don't "HAVE" them, you "PITCH" them.

Only a Southerner knows how many fish, collard greens, turnip greens, peas, beans, etc., make up "a mess."

Only a Southerner can show or point out to you the general direction of "yonder."

Only a Southerner knows exactly how long "directly" is -- as in:
"Going to town, be back directly."

Even Southern babies know that "Gimme some sugar" is not a request for the white, granular sweet substance that sits in a pretty little bowl in the middle of the table.

All Southerners know exactly when "by and by" is. They might not use the term, but they know the concept well.

Only a Southerner knows instinctively that the best gesture of solace for a neighbor who's got trouble is a plate of hot fried
chicken and a big bowl of cold potato salad. If the neighbor's trouble is a real crisis, they also know to add a large banana puddin!

Only Southerners grow up knowing the difference between "right near" and "a right far piece." They also know that "just down the road" can be 1 mile or 20.

Only a Southerner, both knows and understands, the difference between a redneck, a good ol' boy, and po' white trash.

No true Southerner would ever assume that the car with the flashing turn signal is actually going to make a turn

A Southerner knows that "fixin" can be used as a noun, a verb, or an adverb.

Only Southerners make friends while standing in lines We don't do" queues," we do "lines"; and when we're "in line," we talk to everybody!

Put 100 Southerners in a room and half of them will discover they're related, even if only by marriage.

Southerners never refer to one person as "ya'll."

Southerners know grits come from corn and how to eat them.

Every Southerner knows tomatoes with eggs, bacon, grits, and coffee are perfectly wonderful; that red eye gravy is also a breakfast food; and that fried green tomatoes are not a breakfast food.


When you hear someone say, "Well, I caught myself lookin'," you know you are in the presence of a genuine Southerner!

Only true Southerners say "sweet tea" and "sweet milk." Sweet tea indicates the need for sugar and lots of it -- we do not like our tea unsweetened. "Sweet milk" means you don't want buttermilk.

And a true Southerner knows you don't scream obscenities at little old ladies who drive 30 MPH on the freeway. You just say, "Bless her heart" and go your own way.

To those of you who're still a little embarrassed by your Southerness:
Take two tent revivals and a dose of sausage gravy and call me in the morning. Bless your heart!

And to those of you who are still having a hard time understanding all this Southern stuff, bless your hearts, I hear they are fixin'
to have classes on Southernness as a second language!


And for those that are not from the South but have lived here for a long time, ya'll need a sign to hang on ya'lls front porch that reads "I aint from the South but I got here as fast as I could."

Bless your hearts, ya'll have a blessed day.
