What were you doing ten years ago?

Ten years ago I was between marriages and making up for lost time. I was pretty young when I married the first time. I had a fun six months, and I can say I never went too wild. By January 1996 it was getting a little boring. I was working two jobs (accounts receivable clerk by day, cashier at Goody's by night) and going out all the other nights, I lost too much weight. I met my current husband in Febuary 1996 just after Valentine's day.

My new toy!

This is my new toy! Only mine doesn't have that little stand it is sitting on. It has a flexable clip for a flat lcd screen.




















The reason I have this nifty little toy is that my husband is changing jobs and he will be going overseas in about a month. He has one for his laptop so me and the girls can chat with him free on the computer. He is going to be gone for a year, maybe two, but he gets to come home for two weeks every three months.

Here is my first picture taken with the webcam:

My daughter's Barbie is filling in for me because I had a bad hair day. The blanket is on the chair because leather is cold! Not to mention one of my cats has a leather fetish. He scratches anything leather or leatherish.

Happy Birthday Baby!

My Winter Baby!
When she was born (via cesarean) she sucked in fluid when she went to take her first breath. They cleaned and wrapped her up and the nurse brought her to me to kiss, then she was wisked away to the nursery. This was at noon. She had to be under an oxygen hood the rest of the day and they thought they would have to send her the Children's because her oxygen level was too low. Daddy could see her, but I couldn't leave my bed because of dizziness. Late that night when she was the only baby in the nursery, the nurses let big sister go in and talk to her. Her oxygen level jumped! Soon after that it was high enough for them to let her come to me ten hours after she was born. Her oxygen level improved even more after that and by the next morning she was fine. We just had to be extra careful that winter because she was more prone to colds and infections.

It was snowing when we brought her home from the hospital.




Looking cute.


















Being silly.

Classic Leading Lady

Katharine Hepburn
You scored 14% grit, 28% wit, 42% flair, and 23% class!

You are the fabulously quirky and independent woman of character. You go your own way, follow your own drummer, take your own lead. You stand head and shoulders next to your partner, but you are perfectly willing and able to stand alone. Others might be more classically beautiful or conventionally woman-like, but you possess a more fundamental common sense and off-kilter charm, making interesting men fall at your feet. You can pick them up or leave them there as you see fit. You share the screen with the likes of Spencer Tracy and Cary Grant, thinking men who like strong women.

Find out what kind of classic leading man you'd make by taking the Classic Leading Man Test.

Pleasure After Business


Noel sat at the end of the bar where she could see everyone that entered. It was a small local bar filled with smoke and business men. Finally she saw him, the man she was waiting for. He was tall and well built with dark hair and eyes. The grey business suit he wore blended in with the other men as he took a seat in the middle of the bar. Noel ordered a another drink for herself and second one for him. She motioned for him to join her when the bartender pointed her out.

"Thanks for the drink." He said as he stared at her chest. She turned towards him and his eyes moved down to the short black skirt that showed off most of her long shapely legs.

"You're welcome. Have a seat."

After a little conversation and a few more drinks for him they decided to leave the bar. He drove them to the nearest cheap hotel and checked them in while she waited. As soon as they were in the room she pressed herself against him. As they kissed she slipped his jacket off and he began unbuttoning her deep red blouse revealing a black silk bra. She pulled him towards the bed and sat on the end. Kneeling before her he kissed her neck moving lower. She pressed his head against her breasts and reached behind her for the dagger hidden in her waistband.

He died quickly and quietly, just how she liked it. She buttoned her blouse and retrieved his keys from the jacket lying in the floor. In the backseat of the car she found his briefcase and the disc she was sent to retreive. A quick drop-off and her business would be done. Noel smiled to herself. With her business finished so early, there was plenty of time to go out for a little fun.



For the next chapter in Noel's story see Chris.

Christmas shopping and wierd dreams.

Well, here it is the day after Christmas and am I out hitting all the clearance sales? Hell no, I haven't even made it out of bed! I'm only online because hubby left his laptop in the bedroom. I've had a tummy ache ALL NIGHT. And my little one has a cold, complete with a small fever, so she was in the bed kicking my already pained tummy. I would have gone to the couch, but I felt I should be near a bathroom, just in case.

I had a really weird tummy-ache induced dream last night. I was in a car with these people, and they stopped to pick up someone, but I totally freaked, grabbed one of the girls cell phone and bolted from the car. Then I was running down this really nasty dirty area looking for some people I know, I called them on the cell phone to find out where they were. I had to go back through the nasty dirty area where I distinctly remember seeing a dead kitten!

Then I needed to cross a short bridge but for some reason I was under it. There was a kitty there looking at another dead kitty. The dead one was really gross. I barely looked. The live one was rather large and orange with black points and blue eyes. I carried it across the little bridge and away to where I was meeting the friends. But I left him outside their apartment, because the don't have kitties. For some reason I knew he would wait.

That is where the dream ends, or shifts, or I just don't remember. Isn't that wierd? A few relevant facts: I have two kitties, one tuxedo colored black and white and an orange tabby. They are both rather large kitties 13 lbs each but they are slim, not an ounce over wieght. So real life was probably blurring a little in the dream. It is still wierd, and it was very vivid.

My tummy seems to be feeling better, maybe I will make it out to shop after all!

Insomniac Ramblings

Ok, so my last post was not very Christmasy. I am having so much trouble getting into the Christmas stuff this year. Holy crap, I just realized it became Christmas Eve twenty minutes ago. It just doesn't seem like it should be here yet. My youngest has a birthday coming up too. January 6 she will be 2! We are going to take her to the Build-a-Bear store. She can pick an animal and dress it (with help). I think she will have fun. My oldest has been twice now, and she loves it. Guess I better get to bed or I will be too tired to make cookies tomorrow.

Merry Christmas!

Porn Addiction

I came across something online about men addicted to porn and how it ruins whole families. I don't understand it. I can see how people can get addicted to a substance. And even gambling with the possibility of winning large sums of money. But how can you get addicted to watching two (or more) people going at it like animals? I'm not talking about your average spank-the-nursey adult movie. They watch hardcore nasty shit. The thing that bothered me the most was the men that watch rape porn. Yes, there is actually porn video made to look like rape. At least I hope they are acting. It is just disgusting how low some people will go.

Tap Class

After having my digital camera for almost two years, I have figured out the software! I spliced several sections together and added music. It is my oldest's tap class, the music I added is "Santa Baby", by Madonna. I have spent two days trying to get this to upload to the internet. It wouldn't work for You Tube after I fixed it up and I couldn't get the videos from my camera software to work on Windows Movie Maker. So I found a new location for it. I think you have to have Quicktime for this to work, you can download it free here.

Well, what are you waiting for? Go see my video!

HNT-2
