Retention

I am amazed how some people can retain knowledge. Like for instance G can talk about stuff with a lot of knowledge that I may have learned about at one time or another, but have since forgotten - you know the saying, "If you don't use it, you lose it?" Well that is me. But not G. You can bring up almost any subject and he will know something about it - in great depth. How does he do that?

Man, the only thing that I can retain, and with great success, is water.

Questions

So I'm wondering...when Noodles goes into her cat box, does she scrunch her little paw-toes so that they hold about a bucket full of litter? I mean the stuff is everywhere!

Does anyone else think Mike Rowe is cute?

Do you have a favorite character on Futurama?

Whose your daddy?

Game Night Approach-eth

Yeah! We have a date for Game Night! It's Friday, July 20th. We're going to be playing some serious Chicken Foot , have fun on the Wii, and test our skills on the dartboard! Of course some good eats will be served such as BBQ steak and chicken (maybe pork too). Snackies and drinks will play a very important role - an endless supply of fuel is needed for the gamers!

I just love Game Night even though I suck at games, but it's ok - I enjoy being the jester.

Hooksie

I'm playing hooky from work. Well actually it's a mental day off for me. You know how it is when you need a break, but didn't know you needed one until the day arrives and you're laying in bed wide awake unable to get your ass out of bed no matter what? Then you start to realize there is no way you can go into work because mentally you're done, you need a break.

I'm not doing anything but relaxing at home and vegging out. I'm getting myself mentally prepared for another year of running around like a chickie with its head cut off.

Hola

I realize it's been awhile since I've posted. I've just been busy with my work and my guy.

Work has been a bear at times, causing me a lot of pain and stress, which I am happy to say has somewhat subsided. But through it all my guy has been a rock.

So I'm still a lead admin despite the hell that I have been put through. My manager and the HR rep have been supportive, which has been a big help. There was a time when I almost left my job, but I have risen above the crap and moved on without worrying about another person's behavior. I did what I could and that's good enough.

So on to the good stuff.

The man in my life who I shall refer to as G or SirG ;-)

G and I now live together. We met online about eight months ago. Of course we have our ups and downs - how else can we learn from one another without some adversity? Like for instance putting the toilet seat down so my ass doesn't touch water.

Life is good.
