How are you doing? Still working in that bar?
Liked the story about the leo man in the bar. My ex boy friend was a leo. Always looking for dramatic love scenes...

Yes, I am still working in that bar. lol. It's a trip, I tell you.
Human nature on parade.
I love it, of course.

Dramatic love scenes huh? I don't think I could keep up with a Leo.
I have bad nerves and I couldn't stand doing that emotional outburst thing every day.
It's hard enough dealing with 'The Water Dudes' that I deal with.
Or DON'T deal with, depending on the day, the phases of the Moon, the color of their underwear, who knows?? Moody, moody, moody.

Not you of course, I'm sure you are a very nice person.

Oh well, what can you do, right? Just love them up, while their little and can't fight you off.

Grannie isn't so bad, I've heard worse! I don't what to be called! I refer to myself as 'Grannie' when speaking to him, cos I can't think of anything else yet.

I love it when people know their pets sign!
I only know my adopted/abused doggies sign, because he is an AKC registered Brittany.

He's a Libra.

I wish I knew my shih-Tzu's sign! He's the love of my life as far as dogs go, which I've had 13 in my life. He is the cream of the crop.
He followed me home though, and the vet guestimated him to be close to two years old by now.
Just don't know what month, darn it!!!

I think I've decided to stay WAY far away from men for awhile. Thinking of taking a college course....yep.

Nothing wrong with withdrawing from the game for awhile. Rest, and recharge. The men will still be walking the Earth when you get back.

I'm glad to hear your daughter is visiting, and congrats to the twins graduation! Major achievement, we did that last year, with my daughter... look how much difference a year has made, now SHE is a Mom!

The weekend wasn't bad, not bad at all!
I think I'm getting pretty good at this visualization thing. Or maybe it's just 'my time' astro wise. Dunno.

Leaping is right there. Remember some years ago when '1001 Dalmations' came out? The Disney movie?
Well, my friends sister-in-law thought it would be so cool to get a Dalmation.
So she did.

But she didn't consider the fact that Dalmations need aLOT of room, they are big dogs and they must excerise their legs.

She worked at a grocery store 9-10 hours a day, and she was not in any shape to walk a dog. Actually, before I tell you the end of the story, I should add that she is a tad mentally handicapped.

Anyway, the dog started acting up more and more.
It ATE the couch.
Yes, ate it.
I had a German Shepard eat my bed once, dogs will do this.

So she bought a GIANT metal crate, and put it one of the spare bedrooms.

She crated that dog day and night, until finally someone called Animal Control, and they took it from her.
The dog was in bad health, but it survived.

No, it wasn't me that called, but I would have eventually. It was actually my friend who called. Sometimes you just have to.

So, make sure you consider how much time you have, have much space, and all the personality traits of the dog.
I suggest a Shih-Tzu, they are perfect.

Really, google them, they were the only animals allowed in the temples in Tibet, because of their temperment. They rock.

Oh, I was griping about my cranky bird, and he died saturday! I had him for 13 years! Sheesh, that is 3 birds in 2 years.
My co-worker said, "Keep the cage, I'm getting you another bird, that is so sad!!"

I was like, "NOOOOO, I really appreciate it, but, I'm cool with just the dogs for awhile, I work to much!"

I've always been majorly drawn to pumpkins and all things fall/Halloween.

Then I had Chad; who was due on Halloween, and actually came two days early.

After that, I thought, if I ever got married again, I would marry on Halloween.

So, the universe sent me, My Scorpio Ex, who was born on Halloween. Ahem.
I try to keep my brain free of dates or specifics these days, because whoever runs the Universe seems to take me LITERALLY. lol.

So, at work the other day, I am talking to my Saggie girlfriend, the one that got me the job, and she says she's thinking about asking her husband to move out, because she didn't think she was in love with him anymore, and she met this new guy, and she thought he was 'The One', so I asked his sign, and (she knows Mr. Scorp Ex of mine, she doesn't like him) she squinshed up her face, and said, "He was born on Halloween."

I like these:

Cancer: His favourite game is: "Guess how I feel today?"

Virgo: When he says your ass looks fat in that jeans,he actually says 'i love you'.
He doesn't mean any harm, he just can't live without criticism.

Still working overtime?

I hated it for obvious reasons, and he used to call me that, LOUDLY, in front of other people! Arggg!

So, totally fed up one day, I asked him, "why do you call me that!!" (I am not a large person, and I do not eat messily, lol) and he made me bend in close to him, so nobody else could hear, and he said, "You know that movie about the pig, 'Babe'?"

I said yes.

He then said, "I call you 'Little Pig' because you are my Babe.

How can one get mad at that. OH, and actually blushed when he said that!!

And yes, to answer your question I am working my rear end off, literally. I have no rear end anymore.
I am getting totally stressed and I am thinking about looking around for another job, but in my town, all the bar owners know one another, and if I do that, it will most likely get back to the owners, and I will be fired.

So, for right now, I'm sort of seeing how it goes for the next few weeks.
I've decided to try and think of things differently.
Like, instead of panicking and running away, which would be my usual course of action in this sort of situation, I'm thinking of trying to set my mind to a block of time, so to speak.

In other words, I'm saying in my head, "30 days, I HAVE to stay there 30 days, in order to pay for this, that, or the other."
That way, I have a goal, and there is an end in sight, and then after the 30 days are up, I will reevaluate.

No, nothing really negative has happened, he just can't seem to make up his mind about what he wants to do with his life.

He said something about him and his brother moving back here, from Texas, and opening a custom bike shop. I'de like to believe him, but since we've been talking 7 months now, he's made mention of several plans, then totally forgot about them and never brought them up again.

I think he's conflicted and confused. His kids are there, and he has a grandchild on the way in August, but he hates his job, and he misses his family here, and me.. I hope!
