Now I do. I've seen it so many times and never knew and then saw IT when I was in Indianapolis so was trying to figure out how Indiana University fit into it but couldn't figure out the other letters. Finally tonight I looked it up when it came up watching college basketball.
I'm not sure exactly what color I tried on but this is the dress. I think it was a purple but I don't remember it being as light as this one below, though I don't pay much attention to detail most of the time.

Looked on Ebay and found one, but too small for me. Saw other very similar ones too but even smaller, size 0.
Last night at The Asgard Tara started up the pimp topic w/ Peter because he was the only guy initially, until D-Boy showed up. Anyway, today she's instructed all of us to embrace our pimp name, as we all have one, regardless if you're really a true pimp like Peter or not.
Mine is...Tricktickler Heather Sweetness
(If you keep refreshing you'll get a new name. I have to admit this wasn't the first one I got but I like this one)
These are good too:
Fine Ass H. Slim
Delicious Heather Skillz
I'm sitting here at work next to the fabulous Chung-Wei and he asks me if I need a lot of Ivory soap because I can get 96 bars for $1.75. I think this is totally crazy and I have hated Ivory soap since I was a kid because my mom always bought it and it made me itch. Apparently, Chung-Wei uses it, he like the way it feels :0) but the rest of his family uses Dove so he doesn't think his wife wants him to buy a lifetime supply of Ivory, even if it is only $1.75.
He also pointed out the Nike sale which is more useful for me but I've had a boycott on Nike since 1989, well, until I bought the Nike+ thing in 2006.
My favorite gift this Christmas would be Buy One Get One Free Diet Coke 2 Liters at CVS.
I would stock up but I thought I might try and give up soda for the new year??
But I love it soooo!
HRM (my initials, in case you didn't know)
Her royal majesty
What a royal travesty
Her people plead for love and devotion
In return delivered sadness and commotion
Her royal majesty
What a royal controversy
She rules with an iron fist playing the part
Allows no one, nothing, nobody into her heart
very fat, maybe homeless, I hope crazy man that I had to call and complain about before because he was sticking plastic grocery bags down into his ass to clean himself while alone w/ me in the laundromat is there again.
His stink quickly takes over the not-very-large laundromat.
While I was putting my clothes in the washer at the opposite end I was trying not to vomit. I'm not looking forward to going back several times tonight.
I hope he leaves soon!
the only reason I mention it is because no one ever calls me at work even for work-related things so it was funny to get a call from baby Greg all the way from London. Not sure why he decided to call me, normally email is just fine but it was nice to get a phone call for a change. Besides, I don't think I've heard his voice since my graduation party Summer 2006. You still sound the same, older than me :0)
(I love being scared but have a hard time finding scary situations.)
About 1am this morning I was looking for something on the telly to fall asleep to. Paranormal State was on so I thought I'd tune in; there was nothing else on. It's a new show on A&E. I saw the commercial for it when I was in MI w/ my brother. My brother is a big baby! and when we were younger I'd purposely try to scare him. I loved the movie 'The Exorcist' and my brother could not watch it because he was too scared. So I'd sneak in his room late at night when he was sleeping and in my best Linda Blair exorcist voice say things about 'your cunting daughter'.
If I bring it up now he gets mad. So I told him I would teach his 2 year old to tell him that she sees dead people. She repeats everything I say so I'd be very easy to do. He didn't appreciate that!
So anyway I'm watching this show very early this morning and this little kid says he sees dead people, specifically this guy Timmy who turns out was found dead near this little kids house but the little kid knows nothing about it. This is a reality-type show by the way, real people, real stories. Anyway I get bored w/ it so turn over to fall asleep. I sleep in a very tiny bed w/ my hound and we basically sleep right next to each other, head to head, last night she even had her legs stretched out over me, paws in my face basically, not the most comfortable.
At one point I guess she flinched or something, kinda like her panniculus reflex fired, and her arms moved and it felt like someone came up behind me and started choking me. I was totally freaked out and scared!!! I woke right up and quickly figured out what happened though I still turned around to make sure no one was behind me.
Thanks Beaky for scaring Mommy! It was awesome!
I deleted a large portion of my blog late Thursday night. I was trying to update the Amazon links in my sidebar and ended up accidentally deleting a ton of the blog. I was freaking out because I wasn't sure if it was gone forever and I've been blogging all this crap since Aug 2002 so that's a big portion of my life's history gone plus all the hard work RR has put into it. I thought he was going to be furious w/ me.
I was trying to delete one of the Amazon images from the server because I wanted to change the size of it and I didn't realize that the main folder for my weblog was also highlighted so when I hit Delete it started deleting everything in my weblog folder. It took me a bit to respond because I didn't expect that to happen and then finally I hit stop but it was too late. When I first went to check the site to see how it looked, it looked the same so for some reason I thought maybe the computer decided to have my back and didn't really delete all that stuff because why the hell would anyone do that? But then I ended up reloading the site and it was a mess.
I wanted to contact RR ASAP so first I tried emailing but only had the patience to wait a minute w/out a response. My cell phone doesn't work at my mom's so then I had to go downstairs and call RR from her phone but no one answered. (Jenn, when will you ever switch your cell phone to voicemail and not the office main line???) I repeatedly called until I got an answer and talked to RR.
I told him I did something really bad and he started to freak out. He thought it was something like I screwed him over somehow so when I told him what I did he didn't really seem worried. He said we should have a backup and it would be fine. So now she's back up w/out losing any data. Now I'm afraid to mess w/ things so I'll take some time off. That works out anyway because I'm at my brother's and he doesn't have wireless so I can't use my laptop. I'll just use his once in awhile like I am right now.
Thank TimeMachine for backing the server up properly!
Me: shake my head No
White Hen cashier: Just hungry?
Me: Yeah
Really I wanted to say Yeah I'm aggravated. You three are standing there like white trash assholes going on about your nonsense instead of just keeping your mouths shut and taking care of customers.
I just went in for some snacks. I live right next door so go there when I need something quick. I've never seen these people working there before. Normally I like the people working there for the most part. Today there were 3 people behind the counter. A 40+ something white trash woman, a 20 something white trash chick in a wife beater and about 7 months pregnant who could have been the woman's daughter for all I know, and the third was maybe an Indian guy 35+ or so who didn't look white trash but guilty by association. The pregnant chick was talking about some conversation she had w/ I assume a friend about how she should punch someone at work, a customer?, I don't know but I'm standing there while they run my credit card and I had nothing to offer the conversation and they were making me a bit uncomfortable so I guess I had some face on that the woman thought was aggravated. Why the hell she has to call me out on it I don't know. Bitch, you're working, leave me alone. If I look aggravated, whatever. I can't tell you I'm aggravated at you, your pregnant bitch will punch me or maybe you will or I can't come in to stupid White Hen anymore, who knows. You don't ask customers that. If they are aggravated it's because of you so if you think that they are, don't ask, just assume it's you and change your attitude.
Bottom line, leave me alone and do your fucking job!
It's totally overused.
"I'm a very competitive person."
Think about it. Are you sure? or do you just think you are??
Nobody likes to lose but that doesn't make you a competitive person.
Have you seen the new Maroon 5 video for 'Makes Me Wonder?' Doesn't Adam remind you very much of Sting?
Will consuming much less Diet Coke save me money if I replace most of it w/ water and have 1 glass of wine at dinner every night?
Examples of the generic being better than the expensive stuff: EasyMac and Circus Peanuts (Brach's suck!)!
How the hell am I going to adjust to getting up at 6am every morning for the next 3 months and actually have to commute like an hour in a vehicle when normally the earliest I wake up is 8am and commute 15 min. on foot to work?
Why do I always have a gazillion Powerpoint presentations to work on at any given moment? Will I ever catch a break?
What's the worst for my teeth: diet soda, candy or red wine?
Will I ever reach an age where I stop eating candy, or at least so much candy? When I was younger I would always see older girls and think 'Oh, by high school, I won't be eating candy anymore,' like it was a childish thing to do. Now in my 30s I don't see a decline at all. I probably eat even more now, maybe since I have more access than when I was little.
Who's gonna win American Idol? I don't think I care either way. I just like Blake's affinity for argyle.
Does your voice change at all as you age? Ozzy Osbourne sounds exactly the same as when he started out. Your nose and ears grow as you age, yuck, yes I know it's different than your voice, but still it's weird to think you have the same voice. Or maybe just the same singing voice but talking voice gets 'older.' I don't know.
I wish I didn't leave my Circus Peanuts home today. I could use some right about now.
Thanks for stopping by!

Really?
Thanks, very nice of you.
First, check my Amazon.com Wish List and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.
Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.
A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
