07.13.09 - Life is coming together

Okay, so I think we've established that I completely and utterly suck at keeping up with a blog. Well, even my journal hasn't been touched in 6+ months. I forgot about it until the other day when I was cleaning and found it in my laptop bag. Teehee.
Over the past few months a lot of good things have happened to Max & I; don't get me wrong there's been a few bad things but I'm not even going to touch those topics, why stir up what's already drifted away? The RamCharger should be up & legally running by tomorrow, which is just in time because Marizel, my step-mom, will have to have her car back because her current car, the Prius, will have expired plates. I ALSO won a contest for a $20 gift certificate to Dismantled Fashions which pleased the CRAP out of me because I never win contests! Then today I had a job offer working 10pm-7am (which is what I was wanting because Max & I will be working around the same time, thus seeing eachother) paying $1.50 more, way more than I thought; when the topic of a promotion came up I thought it would only be a 20 or 40 cent raise. I will continue being full time & I'll be the head overnight processor & will be training 2 other associates that will be hired in the next few weeks. It's going to be so nice having the same hours every day AND having the same days off!! Now all we have to do is save money for a new car & our own place! I can't wait!!!

The only negative experience that is on my mind is my dad. He went to the ER yesterday because he's had a pain in his abdomen that has been around for over 6 months; it was a problem before Max & I moved here. His doctor at the VA kept telling him it was nothing. All it was was his hernia & acid reflux, no biggie. Well when he went the to ER they discovered that his pain is from his Gall Bladder. The doctors are currently scheduling surgery for him to get it removed. He was given morphine at the hospital and when he came home he had codine & vicodine and still was in way too much pain. He still went to work today. I can't wait to see him better. It'll turn out well, I know. It's just waiting for it blows.

Well I will talk to you all in a few months, lol. It'll probably be in a few days or weeks. We'll see. If I had more comments or readers I'd probably update this thing more *nudge*

05.01.09 - Car Insurance

Alright so my husband has decided that he's going to buy a Camo 1975 Ram Charger for $1000. Okay that's fine, it's his car, his paychecks, and you know it's okay if it looks like a shitty car because where we live most people purposely have crap for cars because people will break in and steal it (our co-worker didn't think his car would be in any danger b/c it had no stereo..the guys took his battery). So now the trick is.... what's a good car insurance company?

So far looking online for quotes I've found Geico to be the most affordable with the best coverage for what we need, but I really need to see what other insurance companies are out there that I don't know about. Any advice or recommendations would be great.

04.23.09 - vote

Hey guys!

Vote for my bag!! It's a design I entered for a contest where if I win my design will be used on the reusable bags with my local grocery store. :)

I thought it would be cool :)

04.20.09 - Fleas

Gah! There's fleas in the hosue. I just found one on my laptop.

Know what that means?!?!
Time to give Freya a flea bath and treat the house. Bah. I really wish my dad would actually treat his cat with flea medication than assume a flea collar is doing the job because now my poor ferret keeps getting them.
I'm ready to just go out and buy his cat flea medicine.

04.08.09 - RVT

I've found my calling.
In July I'll finally be a resident of Indiana, thus I'll be able to go to school and take advantage of my benefits that I am eligible for being that my dad is a Veteran. So I've decided to attend Indiana Business College to become an RVT (Registered Veterinary Technician).
For years animals have fascinated me; I've learned to notice their body movement to see how they're feeling, I've watched their forms of communicating with eachother, and I've felt a great companionship between animals and myself, including those that aren't my own pets. Until I met my husband I never had pets in my house for more than about a week other than when I was a little girl (my parents aren't too keen on animals) but even when I had a dog tear half of my face off I still kept a spot in my heart for all animals.
Yesterday Max and I went to the vet because our three toed box turtle (Max has had her for years but the pervious owner told him that she was a tortoise, as well as a he lol) wasn't feeling well and being there just felt right. Even in the chaos of trying to get the credit card machine to work haha.
So yeah, I'm going to be a Veterinarian :)

04.04.09 - Sleep?

Well I'm still sick but I am feeling better.
I'm going to work tomorrow. I decided not to go today because last night was spent vomiting and tossing and turning. Today I've felt like I was about to barf at least 10 times BUT it's all staying down, which is a plus.
So 7am - 4pm tomorrow, sick or not :/
Other than being sick and trying to nap I put in a comment to Lipgloss and Razorblades today in hope that I'll win their Essem Design giveaway, wish me luck :)

mkay, time to sit in front of the TV and fall asleep.
ttyl.

04.03.09 - Illness.

I'm feeling like crap.
I was great, I slept like a rock until about 2am rolled around, then I was coughing so much that Max could hear me downstairs with the TV loud enough for me to hear from upstairs.
And I can't play with Freya because I'm not sure what I have and the last thing I want to do is give it to her.
I'm so tired I can hardly sit up. My sides ache. I can't stop this ridiculous coughing. I can't stay comfortable, either I'm too cold or I'm too hot. I have fevers that are coming and going.

Oh and I'm starting to get a headache.
I'm thinking about just watching a movie until I fall asleep - of course I have work tomorrow at 7am so I don't want to sleep too much in fear that I won't be able to sleep when I actually need to. And Nyquil might make me sleep too long. Maybe I'll go take Dayquil.

Idk but someone make me feel better!!


I hope I can go to work tomorrow. blargg.

mkay well I'm done complaining.
entertain me? everyone is at work, school, or getting ready for work. =/

03.21.09 - Twilight

I just got Twilight. I am such a dork and I love it!

It's a good movie, even my husband loves it, which is why we're going to go watch it right now. Toodles.

03.19.09 - Spring

Damn, it's been awhile since I last wrote. Exactly one month.
A bit has happened. I don't really like my job, but at the moment I'm taking what I can get. Besides Max and I are doing really well. We're looking to buy a '77 Nova (4-door) this week. I'm shocked at how well off we're doing right now. Financially we're doing so much better than we we're living in both Arkansas and California, combined even; Max isn't even working and we're better off. I spoiled Freya, my ferret, today. I gave her a bath and brushed her teeth. I combed out her hair and cleaned her ears. Then I went to the store and got her a container of Peanut butter flavored treats and 17 new toys. She's super excited lol. I've even found her a boyfriend! His name is Venom, his mommy is this girl I met through Craigslist/Myspace/Email.. yeah small world..I found her cage she was selling on Craiglist, Emailed her and then she realized I added her on myspace a few months ago. hahaha. I really like her so far. We have a similar love for ferrets which is always a plus lol. But yeah, Vemon looks like a teddy bear hehe. So if we ever do plan a play date Freya will have 6 new friends so chase around and wrestle with while having no worries of being too rough!
I'm excited about tomorrow. Although I have work during the entire day, not getting off until sundown, once I'm home Max and I are going to celebate Ostara (Spring Equinox) together. We've planned on finding some seeds for vegetables and setting them into a damp paper towel so that they can begin to sprout and we can see what seeds will be best for planting. I was just telling my sister-in-law on her blog about how much I really love this weather. Even if I live in the city the feel of beauty and warmth from Nature is so abundant. Winter isn't depressing, unlike in Arkansas (unless snow was on the ground) and once the sun really came out the beams felt embracing. I'm really loving being here. Max and I are planning on going to TurkeyRun State Park soon. It's gorgeous, I can't wait to see it.
Every time I discover a new place I think to myself, "Man Max's mom would love this!" or "I really wish I could take Max's sisters here." I miss them =/. I get to see everyone this summer, including Molly :) Can't wait.
Today Max and I went to Panera Bread. I've been there before, infact I used to go there with Thespians, which was the shit I might add lol. I told Max that we needed to go, he pretty much orgasmed in his pants with every bite. We're going back. We also went to Georgetown Market last week or so. They had amazing Vegan food. I had the James Dean smoothie with this amazing sandwhich; I can't remember the name but it was tomatoes topped with sprouts and cucumbers. There was avacado speaded on the bread. Oh, it was great.
Well maybe I'll write soon; I must admit, I suck at blogging. I used to post almost everyday; damn becoming an adult and having a life, hahaa...

which reminds me I have to go clean my desk.
Bye!

Hope everyone has a great Ostara and if you aren't pagan then I hope you enjoy the first day of spring :)

02.19.09 - Wally World

Sorry I haven't been writing.
I've been busy; I just started working at Wal-Mart. It's actually a really awesome job. I like it so far. :)

well that's all for now, time to clean & spend time with the hubby.

02.10.09 - It's good.

Well, everything is going well. I'm going to an interview tomorrow :) and on Friday I'm going to Chicago. Freaking awesome. I hope I can get the job, I need money. I have a lot of items I want and need to buy. Especially for Freya, she needs a new cage and a friend. Well that's all for now, today was a good day. Not boring at all.


and I leave you with this:



hhahahaa, nah, Edward is awesome, but that's priceless.

02.09.09 - Chill

I don't know what it is, but the term "Chill" is always awkward for me if I try to say it. I mean, everyone else can say it and it sounds fine and normal but I just sound weird. It also reminds me of ice cubes & freezers. I don't think I'll ever be able to say it. I think I'm too much of a dork to use popular "lingo." That's okay though, proper English is fine with me. ^_^

02.08.09 - Oh, poo

Alright, I don't know what it is. I think it's contagious. Everyone I've been talking to isn't feeling well and now it's hitting me.
I feel nauseated & dizzy. My right arm feels numb and tingly & my shoulder hurts.
I really wish I had insurance. I don't like feeling like poop.

Anyways, other than the way I'm feeling physically;
the weekend wasn't all that bad. I never did get that resume made like I planned. I went over to Jimbob's and watched Star Trek 2, hahahaha.

I've also been playing Sims 2 all day. Freya and I played, I was running around the house chasing her - she loved it, I looked like an idiot.

I've even been on Facebook, which if you're a friend then you probably know that's a shocker because I usually don't get on there for months at a time.

Well, that's all for now.

02.07.09 - Happy

So I've been feeling super

which is awesome. I haven't felt that way in a long time.
And that's always a good thing.

So today I'm going to sit on my ass (like every other day) and make a resume.
I have a job fair to register for.


Leave love.

02.06.09 - IM me.

Well, seems like today is another one of those days where I'm bored out of my mind.

I woke up rather early, for me anyways. 10am.
Then I just laid in bed until 11 fantasizing about life.
Ate brunch.
Worked out a bit.
I worked on this layout. It was looking really badass but I couldn't get comments to work, and whats the fun in that?
Freya and I were playing for a bit, for those of you that don't know, Freya is my ferret.
She's sleeping again. Max is asleep too. He couldn't sleep last night - he was having an allergic reaction to the comforter (it was washed in generic tide) so when he broke out in hives, instead of switching the blankets he decided to sleep on the office floor. He said he didn't want to change it because he knew I was cold, aw. So he went to sleep probably about 7 hours ago. The only bad thing about his sleeping schedule is when it's like that,
I sleep alone.
>=|

Oh well.

Kay, well I'm on AIM, Yahoo Messenger, & Skype. You guys should IM me. :)
My 411 is over there ====>

02.06.09 - Annoyed.

Okay, so I'm Jackie. Blahblahblah.

This is my new blog. My other blogger decided to not let me access it anymore so I'm just making a new one.

Anyways, I have a livejournal but no one comments it really.
I figure that'll become my nice private one and this'll be the public one. I guess.

So yeah, this is it. Not much to see but fuck it. :)
