Top 10 on the McMind

I've been having trouble with Moma Kat's writing assignments. I don't know. I feel like all my creative juices have evaporated. I should wear a hat. It could help hold my brain in...and those creative juices. None the less i will attempt this weeks assignment. Talent or list?

I'm a girl of many talents. I can stand on my head while drinking water and painting a picture of unruly kids. I can pull Greyhound Buses with my teeth and push an airplane all by myself. I. AM. AWESOME. A.W.E.S.O.M.E. Awesome. But I don't feel the need to brag. gloat. or anything like that. but I'm pretty creative please refer to this post or even this post for a taste of my talents.

So instead I will do the list. List 10 things on your mind this week. Might not be as EXCITING as the talent portion, but I'll do my best.

10 things on my McMind this week.

1. How fantastical my NEW contact lenses are. I can see! I can see! It's like a brand new day.


2. I'm really glad to be over my cold I hate being sick. Not to mention cold stuff is EXPENSIVE.


3. Why do I have heart burn? All day? EVERYDAY? Will Ice cream make my heartburn less burny?


4. I sure hope MaJunior and Dinky want to go out for her birthday this weekend. I REALLY need a trip to the bar. And a if the opportunity came up to YELL at Mr. Ship. Well Who am I to look a gifted horse in the mouth. I swear all I would do is YELL. I swear. I think. I don't know.


5. To bad mystery man wasn't a ringer. One day my prince will come. Right?


6. I really need to clean my apartment. I just need to buck up turn off the TV and...tackle......oh wow the magic bullet infomercial.


7. I can't believe Nana pulled one over on me. Dang it. Nana-1 Amy-0. That sneaky S.O.B.


8. I wonder how long I can drive on my tire before it just completely deflates. It's been looking low since Sunday and so far so good.


9. I have a hankering for some Grand Buffet (Chinese). I could nos on some egg rolls. Maybe MaJunior will want to go to her birthday lunch at the GB.


10. Cake or Cupcakes for Preggers Baby shower. I guess we need to get planning on that Extravaganza. Decorations, food, people. Parties. One of my many talents.

Hello bloggers my new FRIENDS

I've been seriously slacking in my blogging lately. I'm so sorry. I was sick then I was away and then I was just to BUSY here at work to blog. I blogged but not very much, and mainly i did it out of fear. Fear that someone would go "forget this girl". i doubt that would happen, because I'm so crazy cool.

Well the wonderful Diane gave me an award the other week (sorry) and I'm just finally getting to posting about it. Again i was sick, deathbed, started willing my stuff to people SICK. So now that I'm feeling all Peachy Kean Jelly Bean (I just threw up in my mouth). So now I shall pass it on to some other friends. Friends I have meant here in bloggyland and a few I've known longer. If I don't pass it to you....well....get a clue. I must not like you. Hey what can I say.....I'm KIDDING.

First off I'm giving it to Kitty because she is...well my real life best friend, so if i didn't give it to her she would more then likely not get anything COOL for me for my birthday.

To Rachel because she is my first bloggy friend and she cracks me up. If you haven't you have to check out her blog, she posts the coolest pictures of her little boy and she's a pretty funny mommy. I hope I'm a cool mom like her someday.

La Pixie is such a sweet heart. I love reading her blog and living vicariously through her life. Plus we both share a love for baking/cooking and she's always cooking up something yummy.

Melissa oh Melissa. Your strength over the last few months and your honesty amaze me. I don't think I could have held up the way you have. I would have been a huge blubbering (not so) hot mess. I hope that when i need to be strong in life I am able to be half as strong as you are. You are truly amazing. and you have a cute little family. total package

Darcie I've known since college. She took me to my first frat party, did shots of vodka with me until i vomited all over our friends rug, and introduced me (the new kid) to her closest friends. She is also strong and when life gave her lemons she threw those fuckers in life's face. GO DARCIE!!

I could keep going but i wont. I'll stop. I'll leave some love for someone else to pass around. Oh and Thanks Diane for passing this to me! you're a DOLL!

Best Card (?) EVER!

I like to fancy myself a pretty creative person. I get off decorating and making things for parties. I write funny stories and fake memos to make my co-workers laugh. Do I even need to mention the AWARD wining PAC MAN outfits I made for our work Halloween party. I love that stuff. Well my co-worker Ruth is equally as funny and creative. We get along great. I think it's because we both of the same sick twisted sense of humor. Ruth is in her mid 60's (I think, trust me it's important to the story) and she LOVES South Park. For Christmas this year Sharon got her a south park desk calender. While I was away last week Ruth had some time on her hands and this is what was waiting for me when I returned.

I do believe this is by FAR the BEST Valentines Day card I have ever been given. I couldn't stop laughing. I LOVE it.

Death....who needs it

I haven't be able to post because.....well sorry people, but everyone is dieing this week. And it's only Tuesday! 25 obits. that's how many I did for yesterdays paper. 25 obits. it was insane. not a great welcome back!

Can't help but notice there was no ticker tat parade when I returned from my trip. No "hey how you doing?" No glad to have you back. Just work waiting for me. No screaming 250,000 fans waving signs and towels and shaking their money makers when they saw me pull into the lot. What gives?

Busy busy!

Melting Pot-O-Blog

Ok I'll start with this. Everyone knows who Moma Kat is. What? You don't? I don't even know what to say if you don't. Buy a clue. buy a clue. Well the ever fun Moma Kat is hosting an apron giveaway. I love give aways! Who doesn't. You don't? Wow your a strange one. Anywho. Stop over to her site and check out the giveaway. If you win because you see this post you'll have to share custody of that hot little apron with me. Fairs fair. If you like what you see at Moma Kats you have to swing over to Carolyn's Kitchen and check out what else she has to offer. I love this one and this one and about a million other aprons. So fun.



Ok. Second. I'm no longer sick! Can I get an AMEN! AMEN!

Third. GO STEELERS!!! WOW! I thought I was going to throw up, poop my pants, and lose my voice all at the same time in the 4th quarter. I flew out of Buffalo at 6 p.m. Missing the start of the game. Got to Baltimore by 7 p.m. in my car and found a radio station broadcasting the game by 7:30 p.m. Just in time to Hear about my boy James Harrison running back that 100 yard touchdown. Not bad for a (2 time) cut player. Then halftime. I got to my house with 2 minutes left in the 3rd and watched the whole 4th quarter. DEAR GOD! What a quarter it was. Thank goodness for Holmes and his pointy feet.

Fourth. My trip was great. I got over my cold mostly by Friday and we had a lot of fun. I had some yummy hot dogs from Ted's and got some great wings at Elmos. I love Buffalo food. Can't forget to mention the tasty MONSTER Burger. It was Yummastical.

Fifth. For those of you who are on the edge of your seat. Mystery man was nice. We all had a good time at dinner and playing cranium. Good times. While Mystery Man was nice he reminded me of my Ex. A LOT. I don't know.

I'll post more about my trip after I get the photos uploaded. I'll also post about my misadventures with the Netty pot!

"you and the netty pot are not Bf's" Soccermom's best comment from the trip.
