Midnight launches and the Stuck on Stupids of the world

This week has been insanely busy. I got roped into working the midnight launch of the latest and greatest war video game, Call of Duty-Modern Warfare 2. Yeah. I know, I know.

I just have to laugh at these freaks…

So, the Outlaws remembered my birthday this year…but it wasn’t as profitable as last year. I was hoping for some cash-trumps-sincerity after their latest set of tirades and fiascos (attempting to kick me out of the house we’re living in for no other reason than Doug won’t tell them where I work.

Do I have a sign on my head that says “stupid stuff come to me! ?”

From the “It seemed like a good idea at the time” files

I joined another Death By knitting event-Hat Attack. I knit hats quickly, so I figured not a big deal, right? The pattern for Hat attack is kicking my rear.

When good gingerbread goes bad, or how to ignore the directions on a pack of cookie mix

So this evening, I decided that it would be a wise idea to engage in cookie baking with Isaac.

Here’s the pic of Continue reading →

Stupid, stupid people…the next incarnation

So, because of Doug’s multiple medical issues (and that’s being polite), we’ve had to use Edgepark for supply purchase. Normally, this is a seriously pleasant experience, if not downright completely efficient. Today, however, I have run into the latest dose of…. STUPID, STUPID PEOPLE!!!
