"He knew a bum was our president."

I don't care who ya are that's funny! 

Wade In The Water ...not!

 I grew up near a creek, and in the summer it was our local hangout.  Us kids would trek down to Tygart Creek and hike and wade and whatever else, we had the place to ourselves! On a few occasions you would spy a snake on top the water coming downstream and have to get out until it passed by, and once I stepped on a mud puppy and that was kind scary, but try to get my 20 year old near lake water...she freaks! Actually she never grew up near a creek, always had an above-ground pool at her dad's house, so she was spoiled.  Also, her fear stems from this show called "River Monsters" and she swears up and down weird things could live in murky water and if she can't see the bottom she's not going in....

actually that show does creep one out on what could possibly be underneath the water and you just cannot see it! Come to think of it, I'm not sure I would venture in creek or river water myself anymore! You never really know what lives down there...LOL

Computer problems again?! wtf???

Don't you just feel like whing and crying like a baby when your puter just doesn't work? 

Well, I don't know what the hell happened, but it appears something happened to not allow my Windows to come up; rather what came up was the blue screen of fuckupedness! OMGawd! 

So...it says if you are seeing this error for the first time, we suggest you restart your computer; then should this fuckupedness continue then perhaps you should check your disk space and BIOS, but since I thought perhaps it was a security issue, I contact Microsoft Security Essentials support but they could not fix it because if Windows was up, there was no reason why their security software would fail, so they suggested I contact Windows....well, if you aren't willing to give them a $199 bucks you'd best put your 'geek on' and figure it out yourself...

Well, I damn sure was not going to settle, so I sat my butt down here and figured I would try to bring this computer back from scratch.  I reinstalled my original Windows XP Home Edition disk and after countless hours of manipulation and upgrades and updates, I am up and running again! ha! Now, if I could find my stuff (my computer thinks I am trying to transfer from an old computer to the new computer but its all the same damn computer! so I'm not sure how to download that wizard of documents from my other partition)  instead of losing all my stuff would be nice, but not an absolute necessity at this point, ya know? at least I can surf and blog ... damnit!

Oh, and I have a new little toy! a Nook! I found and bought a 16 GB Nook for a ridiculous price at a pawn shop, and we're tickled with it! its not an I-Pad but it still has internet capability and apps to include games for Isabella, plus I would like to keep her reading all summer so its a plus! Of course, I have to fight for time to play with it!  Best of all its portable, I can do it anywhere in house with my wi-fi!  It sure beats sitting here at the desk! I think I'll cozy into bed and play with my Nook! See yuns later!

Give Me Your Worst Curse!

Okay tell me.  Are you a potty-mouth?

I have to admit that I can be quite the potty-mouth should the occasion arise.  I have an extensive vocabulary.  However, I have mellowed out with age and having a 9 year old present at all times.

I blame my potty-mouth on my parents, cause I grew up in the most potty-mouthed house in the south.  I swear.  My parents could put the best cussers to shame.  Everybody cussed at my house growing up, and Goddamnits and Fuck-Its were commonplace.  I never knew what it was like growing up normally not to hear cuss words.  I thought everybody cussed...LOL

Unfortunately when I got out into the real word, cussing like a sailor was not that impressive with folks.  They were like, WTF? I have never heard such a musical accompaniment of gasps, sighs, and utter disbelief at the repertoire of cuss words flying freely from my mouth, sometimes neglecting any attempt at being tactful.  Shame on me! Problem was I was a young single (no wonder, huh?) mother and unlike my predecessors before me, family traditions would have to be broken when out of the mouth of babes, I heard my 4 year old son spew out some pretty foul cuss words, I have to sincerely look at the source, Yours Truly!

Now, if that doesn't wake one up, then it should! I hardly ever cursed from that point on once I realized its impact.  Imagine that all those years I was honing my fine art of explicative expression and it was over! It truly makes one look bad, like they grew up in Appalachia, for goodness sakes!
