Another day another dollar
Well, I was told to go on line on Facebook and "like" Comic Con to try to get one day passes. apparently they are sold out? Anyway, they also suggested Twitter but I don't do Twitter. So I put a note out there about the passes. Two very nice people responded. 1 whack job responded. And keeps responding. Why am I letting some little twit who is maybe 20, get my dander up? Ugh! If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all, right? i would love to tell this chick off and tell her to get a life, but I would be stooping to her level. I wish we could "delete" and "ignore" on FB like we can here! These people are lurking on there 24/7 waiting for the release of 1 day passes to go on sale! And if I am reading correctly, I am told "Fat Chance" of getting more than 1. So I basically told my husband to quit dreaming of Comic Con. (I also saw photos of last year's Comic Con. Wow! I am personally glad I am NOT going and also happy David is not going!) The pictures of these people were SCARY!
Went to a garage fire today. Some morons stole a car, drove it to an alley and then lit it on fire, causing fire damage to this woman's garage. Very nice people. They had no comprehensive coverage on the car inside which sustained heavy fire damage and I had to explain that homeowners coverage excludes motor vehicle damage. So they have no insurance on the car.
Lost another 1/2 lb last week. Woo Hoo (dripping with sarcasm!) 1 whole lb in 2 weeks. but I guess I should look on the bright side and say it is better than gaining. Still doing Sparkpeople. If I was being honest with myself, I am not killing myself here either. but I have pretty much been in the 1400 to 1500 calorie range. 2 thinks I have learned: 1) validation that my calories range when doing Fitday was in fact on target, 2) I haven't been getting enough protein. I did get some ZonePerfect protein bars. Like 210 calories. Peanut butter and chocolate, YUM! Great for on the road and do help me feel full.
Ok: more names for "Red." I still like Sir Alec Guinness and calling him Guinness but Paul and David say "no." Paul and I like "Reggie" but David says "no." we like "Rudy" but my neighbor's name is Rudy. You ought to see the 2 page list of names I have! I drove up to Philly today and I am looking at the billboards for names! I want to pick a name so I can order him a name tag ASAP so I have it in time.
My mom paid an arm and a leg for training for Max. Personally, I think she got rooked! His last class was today. I think my mom just needs to take him out 30-45 minutes per day on the leash and walk him! This is what "The Dog Whisperer" says. This is what the woman on "It's Me or The Dog" says. I feel bad for her because I think she is doubting herself this time around and I think Max senses her hesitancy and is feeding off that energy. (Yep. I watch a lot of "Dog Whisperer.)
David and Paul went at it really bad yesterday. David has been stuck about this kid he thinks stole his bike frame a year ago. (LONG STORY). I basically said to David to let it go. Just not worth it. David is threatening to really hurt this kid and he has gotten himself all worked up over this and even destructive. I think/pray David starts anger management this week with the other counselor. In the meantime my narcissistic husband tells me he doesn't want David anymore and he can't do this. he eventually calms down. I got David to help me cook dinner. But there is some truth to what Paul is saying (for Paul) in that Paul is giving up. Not just on David but on life in general. Things did not turn out the way he wanted, so he gives up. WTF!!!!! When does life EVER turn out the way we want/thought? Why is that a bad thing? I say this all to him and he looks at me like I have two heads! I am SO frustrated with the two of them! Why does the glass have to be perpetually empty? You know what? You don't like it? Get up off your hiny and go fill it!!! Paul actually blamed me and David at one point as the reason he does not have a job! I basically said "you don't like it, there's the door." Needless to say, he is still here.
Poor Kona has been VERY clingy with me, more than usual, these last few days because of the two of them!
Slept ok last night. Praying I get a good night's sleep again tonight.
