Hi Kelly,
I first became aware that you were secretly visiting here when you commented on my post about the death of Johnny Carson, and how I always thought Dad resembled him. That was in Jan. of 2005. The last time I ‘heard’ from you. OH, wait - there was that cryptic comment you made on Mom’s blog for her to email you - and me too. Well, we did. Where did you go?
Where are you anyway?
I moved Mom to her new apartment today. I think she’ll be much happier ‘cos she’s going to finally get another cat. It was really a tough job, especially since I had a raging “post root canal” abscess starting to attack my mouth. But we did it. She doesn’t have her t.v. or pc hooked up yet… probably going to be lonely tonite. She only moved about 7 miles away, but that’s still farther than the 1 mile away that she was from me before. You remember where she lived, right?
Where the hell are you anyway?
Ya, my tooth. My abscess. It is freakin’ killing me! I started on antibiotics, but they’ll take about a day before I start to feel any relief from the pain. The hell of it is that I can’t take anything other than Tylenol, which really doesn’t have any anti-inflammatory benefits, but Ibuprofen damages my stomach, and I have to stay away from the pain meds… you know that I had a problem with them, right? Now I steer clear from anything that takes me artificially away from myself. Gotta do that to stay healthy and true to myself.
How are your addictions btw? Under control? Still playing games?
So what’s the problem? Did I do anything to upset you so much that you disappeared and haven’t been in touch for years? How’s my niece and nephews? Getting big I imagnine. You know how great Jim is with kids - they’re really missing out on knowing their cool Uncle Jim ya know.
Doesn’t life ever make you think of your real family? Me & Mom? We’re all there is - you’re the only sister I have. What the hell is wrong with you? Oh, sorry. I didn’t want this to turn into a shouting match. I’m just sad.
I’m sad that you’re not around. Sad that you don’t want to share any of our lives with us. Sad that any of us could die, any second, and you wouldn’t even know. Oh what would the difference be anyway? Obviously wouldn’t bother you. Besides, I’m sure you still have Tony. And I’m sure he’s still everything that you desire for yourself. ya, right. OOPs, there I go again. Sorry. (ya, I said it. he’s an ass)
ANyway. I just felt like talking to you and this appears to be the only way to reach you - at least as of 3 yrs ago when you popped by.
Did I tell you that Jennie is in love? Very serious. And Brian is a really cool guy - an engineer and a VP at his job. Funny, bright, and he is so good to her. I’m happy for her. Everyone deserves to be truly happy in life. Did you know that? Are you happy?
Well, I’m going to throw caution to the wind and take a mega dose of Ibuprofen - I don’t want to lay awake in bed crying from the pain like I did last nite. I hope I get to sleep. Hey, if you’re around, say hi. That would be nice.
c’ya Kelly. I will always love you. I just wish I knew where you were.
xoxo

Thought I’d better pop in at least once in awhile… you know it’s few and far between when I forgot my WP password!
Nice to see you!

Happy Saturday!
I just added a page here that contains a little paint thingie - check it out (up there on the menu bar “Paint”).
Neat, huh? (from Offtype) Well, not exactly sure what one would do with it, but sometimes the mindless act of swirling a brush around, even a virtual one, is relaxing, no?
I also don’t know what happened to the template on that page (the sidebar), so I opened it up in Firefox thinking I may see something that I didn’t in IE, and wow, didn’t realize how small my text size looks. Bummer. (yes, I still use IE primarily)
c’yall later.

Oh lordie… did anyone see Brett’s “farewell” speech? I doubt that the coverage of this event is as all consuming as it is here in Packerland, so in case you missed it - Brett’s speech (make sure you have a box of Kleenex handy!)
Our FOX news affliliate had one of those video dealies of Brett set to music, 5 for Fighting’s Superman. Extremely moving, and oh-so appropriate. *sniff*
Ok, that’s the last I’ll mention it, I promise.

We are going to miss you soooo much Brett.

Hi guys! I just want to show you something…
Furniture Sox
Isn’t that a great idea? Gotta get me some.
(yes, she’s my client… but she didn’t pay me to say that)
:)
That’s all.

Wasn’t that one of the best Super Bowls you’ve ever seen? I thought it was quite entertaining. Commercials? Sure, there were a few cute/funny ones. I actually liked the first Dell one, where a sweet voice sang ”Que Sera Sera” in the background… rather Applesque I thought.
This ad is actually the reason I’m popping in here this morning… to the Hollywood Screenwriters, (via The Skinny) from TCM. Ha, good one!
It was also hubby’s b-day, so we went to lunch in honor of the old man. If I remember correctly, it was the Moosie-man’s bday as well, am I correct ma’am? or thereabouts…
Hey, smoking/not smoking update. I’m doin’ it! Quit the Chantix about 2 weeks ago. Hung on as long as I could, but to the relief of the hubster, I stopped taking it. Had me in quite a gasseous state! I could handle that and the nausea, but when it started affecting my psyche, that was it. ick. Sooo, I struggled a bit after it left my nicotinic receptors, but now I’ll pop in a Commit lozenge when I feel the need. But man-o-man, I have been wheezing up a storm ever since I quit. What the hell?? Hopefully that will disappear once my lungs get used to filling up with air on a regular basis.
Ok then, must get to work. OH, I’m also going to bed by midnight every nite now, BUT, I’m getting up at the butt-crack of dawn instead. Whatever. Makes hubby happy to hit the hay together.
c’yall later. xoxo

I am just beside myself right now…. (well, of course I’m beside myself, who else is sitting on my chair with me?) Got the brats simmering in beer and oniONS as we speaketh….GO PACK GO!!

The other day I flopped next to hubby in the living room and prefaced what I had to say with “I’m just throwing this out there - don’t take it too seriously,k?”
So now that I had his attention, I said how when I was cleaning the stove, I kinda liked it… made it all shiny and clean n’ everything. Then I was on a roll, and polished the stainless stuff, and even started dinner. But that’s where it stopped. Time up. Had a deadline to complete with a web client… ok. Party’s over.
So what I actually said to him, was “I wish I didn’t have the business, and just still worked the couple of days at the hospital, then I could be all domestic and stuff again. Shop, clean, cook…. wouldn’t that be nice?”
“YA, r-i-i-i-ght. That would last about a week. You wouldn’t be able to stop your computer stuff if you were paid to quit!”
“Hmmph. Well, I don’t know about that, but it sure sounds like a lovely change for awhile, ya know?”
So, I hopped off of the couch, leaned over for a ‘you’re my buddy” kiss, and trotted off back to my office. It’s nice to have those heart to heart talks on occasion, ya know?
(For Faith & Boris)
