Don't worry the toothbrush was disposed of!

Memories

As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember! Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you (if you already haven't). It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

Giveaway

Friend Sarah is having a giveaway on Sallies Clippies this week on thes Very Cute felts. Go there for details.

Scarlet

Crimson

I received a call from the prosecutor's office today telling me that the kid who assaulted me has decided to go forward with the trial. So on September 9th, I will be testifying against the little shit! A part of me is SO MAD, but the other part of me is kind of excited to let the jury know my side of the story, & hope that when the jury is in the room deciding on a verdict, they laugh at what an idiot this kid is and sentence him. I also hope that he has a prior record, because if he does, that is also taken into consideration. Sorry tax payers of Utah, that is scum is wasting your tax $$.

This is one of the pains I would love to do to him, repeatedly. I tried to post it, but the option was unavailable at this time.

Mormon's Exposed

I am not sure how I am feeling about this? In a sense it is humorous, on the other hand I would almost be uncomfortable looking at these guys. How do you guys feel about it? I tried to find the article I just read today about some of the families who are supporting their RM's posing for the calender. The guy who started this has been excommunicated & he states that is not just for this, it is for not attending church regularly & not paying his tithing. Okay buddy, if that was the case, I would have been X'ed YEARS ago.
Nat, maybe your brother wants to pose in next years calender! He is really cute! Could you imagine your parents?!?!

More Addicting than Tetris

Remember Tetris? I played too many hours of it back in the day. Now, I am not a gamer, but I do every once in awhile like games similar to Tetris. I am warning you, if you like Tetris, do not start playing this game! I almost purchased it until I saw that is is $19.99, & that I think secretly Devin is annoyed & weirded out that I find this game so addicting. The nice thing is that you don't have to download or sign up for anything. Just play it online. So join me; but if you do, I may just have to buy it, so that we can challenge each other!

Well, off to play Zuma!

Secret Agent Man

Working at the motel I have frequently encountered guests who are mentally ill, but are in such a poor mental state that it is depressing. But there is a gentleman who has stayed with us a number of times, who is a high functioning schizophrenic, who claims he is an informant for the CIA. It was just over a year ago that this, sun weathered guy with scraggly hippie hair came peddling up to the motel on his bike, & I checked him in. For the next few days of his stay he would come by to ask me if a package had been dropped of for him or if there were any phone messages. On his last day, he came in to tell me he was checking out, but he was still expecting a package. If the package came, just hold on to it because it was from the CIA, he informed me. I didn't think anything of it, & a package never came.

A few months later my employee tells me about this guest who claims he is an informant, who has been down in the office talking, & talking to him about how the CIA drops a check off in his room every day while he is gone, & when he gets back to wherever he is staying they have come in and taken it back. He also has asked to borrow my employees cell phone a few times, & stands here in the office pretending to give orders. Orders like he is in the middle of a war, telling his troops to duck, and move along. But when my employee looks at his phone, there have been no calls made.

This poor guys loves my poor employee, who has had to endure hours of crazy talk. At least he understands, because he has a family member who is schizophrenic. My employee had reached his limit one night & told him he was going to lock up & run across the street to grab something to eat. Well, that was a bust, because the guy told him he would just join him! While at the grocery store employee runs into a girl he used to date & CIA man proceeds to hit on her, while poor employee is just mortified.

It had been a couple months since I had seen this guy, until he came waltzing into my lobby yesterday, & jabbered my ear off about how to feed my finches. As he was walking out the door, he turned, "You know I am an informant for the CIA, & to let me know when the package I am expecting arrives?" Sure thing!

Tonight, Devin busts in the asking me why I am letting crazy man stay again, & that he just cornered him outside & asked him if he had received his federal mail. Devin told him that he had not even been up at the front desk yet. The poor agents response was, "your wife told me you would know & to ask you." Then he marched up to the front desk & asked if anything had arrived or if there were any messages. If I was heartless, a part of me really wants to say some like, "your package came & the man who dropped it off asked me if you were came by car or bike. When I told him bike, he walked out with the mail in hand." Or that I saw a car sitting outside your room when I pulled up from running errands. But when they saw me pull up they drove off." Maybe tomrrow when he comes, I will just ask him if he really should have told me he was a secret agent. That is harmless right?

I try not to find it too humorous because it really is sad. He is pretty much a vagrant, who I would imagine the only government mail he is receiving is a disability check.

Cheers to my good mental health. Minus a few bad moods!

Lucha Libre Hello Kitty

I have been meaning to take pictures of Maren in this to post for awhile now. Well here they are in all their freakishly hilarious charm. My baby sister brought this back to MQ from her senior trip, straight from Mexico. We laugh hysterically every time she puts it on. Becky, I bet you wish it came in your size huh!

FED UP!!

I am so sick of this damn laptop cord. Ya know the one that powers her up? We have had to contort it, pull it, sit on it, and sit things on it for the past few months now just to get it to charge! Obviously I need a new one, but does ANYONE know of a cord that will not get bent over time. I know I am hard on things, for hell's sakes, this is our third one in a year!
And for all of your lurkers, who read but don't post and may know of one, please email or call me.
Taataa.

Clippies

A few posts back I shared my friends website, Sallie's Clippies. I forgot to post that they were having a giveaway the other week to launch their new felt clippie collection. Well, the giveaway is over, but I still wanted to show you how great these felt clippies are. They are two for $10. Which is a STEAL!!

Peacock

Banana Split

Kiwi Strawberry

Red Honeybee

Creamsicle

Groovy

If you have a child or baby with little or no hair, all of their clips slide into a little slit that is in the middle of the square piece of fabric on the headband.
Headbands come in pink{shown above}, white, cream, chocolate, textured chocolate, navy, & black.

I picked up a bunch of clips the other week, & am needing to get back to get some felts.

Meet...

Sam & Diane {Devin's name contribution}, the newest addition to this little motel. But unlike womanizing Sam Malone on Cheers, our male Zebra Finch is confined to his little cage with his woman Diane. I couldn't get a good picture of the two of them together. Aren't they cute?!

The only problem is this annoying animal!

Hunting dogs and birds do not match! Even though they are clear up at the front desk, his big nose can still smell them. The whining and barking is driving me insane!!!
