I love playing White Trash.... I AM playing, right?

Well due to some recent issues I will writing a little less "inside" my life, this is just for a while ( I hope) until I feel more comfortable that this "issue" has been taken care of...

OK, now that has been said.... on a lighter note....

Whilst taking the long HOT daily stroll to the car today I was in a conversation with a girl from work about loving to play White Trash every once in in a while(this subject came up due to the "issue")... its not too hard and sometimes a lot of fun, well as long as I don't end up on an episode of Cops. The best way is to to just ignore all societies rules for being a girl (or woman). So why does most women when they get pissed at each other say the other is either white trash or psycho? Is it because we all fear that is what we are? Well my feeling is this... letting go of the rules of society isn't all bad. It can feel a little bit liberating and you can let your hair down! So all I have to say now is girls try it once, let out your white trash side you might enjoy it.

So off to the knitting world...

I did find my pouch of notions, some how it ended up behind my bed. How the freak did it get back there? I have no clue! I think I'll just blame it on my cat....

Thanks to a fellow Knitlist member Noe, I went on search for a pattern for Sakura and this is what I found. I saw it a long time ago but my knitting, well let me be honest, wasn't even fit for a regular SS scarf.

I think I'm going to do my flowers in red, to match my hip tattoo... not sure what color the scarf could be, maybe an off-white. I'm going to try and find a little star pattern so I can incorporate them also, then it will look just like it!

I'm about to head up to ATL for a week. My bestfriend is going into the hospital on the 2nd to deliver my baby god-son Dylan! I'm so excited I've been buying baby clothes like crazy. So I have yarn for a blanket and some booties (which mind you I bought the day after I found out she was pregant) but with this inner ear infection I just haven't felt like working on something I plan on giving away... because it would have to be perfect for my Wendy! I did find out today because of some problems she will have to stay in the hospital for 5 days and she asked if I'd stay with her to get her some good food, watch movie and look at trashy magizines....

I'm going to try to do the blanket while I'm sitting around the hospital... I have to find a really cool pattern first . Something unique, her boyfriends mother has crochet her a few blankets already. I just don't want to do one that is like every other baby blanket, something like her, unique and beautiful.

So any suggestions for anything cool... I wish I could do those converse booties but I just can't see myself trying to learn crochet while hanging out in the hospital... I don't even care if I have to buy the pattern, just as long as it is special....

Well I guess I need to go eat and lay down so I can get to feeling better.

Ta Ta...

Armed and Dangerous

Alright... I finished my arm gauntlet but I seem to have "misplaced" my little pouch I keep all my darning needles, stick markers and everything else I have... damn I'm such a dumb ass sometimes.

I can't wait to find my stuff... I remember seeing it, well somewhere!!!! I guess it is time to clean my house huh?

So for some reason my TV is stuck on E and what is on? Well it is the worst reality dating moments... I just can't seem to turn it off...it has helped me find my new line,

"In the beginning we use to hump all the time. We'd hump here, there and everywhere! Now we never hump anymore!"

I know men can be pigs but what the hells up with these stupid women? It embarrasses me to be one seeing how these girls act and the level desperation they "show" on freakin national TV.

Stupid people just piss me off... but it makes me feel so much better that I'm not one of these girls! If I ever say I'm going on reality TV will someone please shoot me because I must have some kind of incurable disease.

I never understand how people care about people one day and the next hate each other... I think in order for you to be happy in your life you need to remember why you let them in your life in the first place. This is how I have stayed great friends with my ex-husband.... but some people are freakin idiots and they can't see it... and to them all I can say is GROW UP and stop reading my blog!

OK, so its freakin hot here in Savannah, knitting seems to make it hotter if you can image! So I'm off to sweat and search for my little pouch of knitting notions....

12 things – A Bitch's list of Today

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

1) Writing and Cussing: Ugh, why is writing the first sentence always so hard? Ok, well I guess I wrote it now and the words should be flowing now! Maybe I have Blogger’s Block…. or could it be ADHD? Should I go get tested? Umm, where was I going with al this? Oh yeah… I think I have all this important stuff jumbled up in my little head and they are so not playing nice with each other! Damn them!

2) Smart as a Brick? First things first, working at a large aircraft company seems to be a pretty cool sounding job right? With an abundance of brilliant people right? Now don’t get me wrong, there are some really intelligent people here but most have very little common sense or tact. A guy can build an airplane but can’t make a copy, which scares me just a little bit. It just is not nice to treat people like they are beneath them. I don’t care if you are VP or the guy you empties the trash we all have to work together! UGH, ok now that is out… on to the next…

3) As the Gulfstream Turns: The other day our IT dept or what we call “the internet Nazis” put a new block on our daily visits to the local County Sheriff dept website. It seems that we (as a company in whole) have nothing to do but check the website daily to see who we know that had been arrested the prior night and spread it as fast as we can. I am guilty of this little bit of pleasure, which is a little embarrassing on my part! All I know is to never get arrested in this town, actually never do anything that could be used against you in this town cause word spreads faster than peanut butter on toast! Anyhoo(I really hate when I use that word) there is the ADHD at work, So I guess when the last girl at our work was put in the slammer for Terrorist Treats and acts, “the man” decided that something needed to be done to the gossip train. I mean talking about taking all the joy out of our day! What the heck will we do now? Work?

4) We giveth but you have to giveth 5 dollars: So now it seems I have an interview tomorrow. Am I getting a new job? Well no, not exactly. I have to actually interview for my promotion! What kind of bullcrap is that?

5) There is Terror in S-Town: Speaking of stupid people and terroristic threats… this is nice, they had a big crackdown at our local family entertainment place… here is the best part:

From the Savannah News:

15-year-old was charged with terroristic threats after he confronted a police officer.

"The officer was trying to prevent him from attacking a child and he said, '... don't touch me. I'll kill you. I don't care if you're the police, I'll bust a cap in your a-,'

At least it seems he had great grammar.

6) Its all about the Ska: I’ve got some exciting news! Oh yes, Aug 6th Dropkick Murphys is coming to Savannah! Finally some good music in this town.

Dropkick Murphys_beer_beer_beer

7) What a lovely Asshole:

8) The 5th reason girls are dumb: Wearing 5” heels on a day that is so hot even this southern girl is complaining is a really bad idea especially when I have to walk about half mile to my car! Today is a total flats day. What do I care if my ass is perky?

9) Cats, Men and PBR: I believe that I will end up marring my cat! Hey, they could have some kind of special pill in the future you never know. I mean who knows what is going on with Ashley and me, he won’t grow up long enough to talk about me which I know is a shock! I mean there are guys out there but I think instead of telling them I’m not into them I try to make them not want to date me, it has become a little bit of a game for me. Its actually pretty hard ! I mean I tell them I’m tattooed, been in rehab, like punk music, love going to the local hole in the wall bar in my jeans/t-shirt and drinking PBR in a can. Oh yeah I left out I can burp the alphabet… ok I’m kidding on that one, well I can but I don’t do it anymore! I just don’t seem into the guys down here, for too country-fried for me. I mean they are good to go out for some fun but to date? No way!

10) Knitting? Who me? So, I’ve picked up the needles again! This time I’m telling myself that I have to actually finish something (this is where the ADHD comes back into play from #1) and I’ll be back into the grove… well I have a million excuses, along with the 9 above to give ya but the truth is I’m a little on the pissy side lately and if I mess up I’m going to end of stabbing my eyes out. Oh an extra one….

Ok, I know this is doctored but Sid was just cool!

11) Digging for Gold: Oh well guess what my baby is doing in my bag? He is hunting for hair bands! This little bandit steals all of them and when I go to put my hair up I end up searching the whole house for just one. What a cute little brat.

12) The Vatican issued a set of “Ten Commandments” for drivers: Yes the Catholic Church has now given us "rules" of driving. Now, I can think of much more effective commandments than what the Church can come up with! Check it out! The Driving Ten Commandments!!!!

Here is a couple of cute little baby pics...

This is what its all about... well until the brawl starts!

The normal "Rufus pose"

All Disco'd Out!

First I wanna start out with a song that means a lot to me... its just reminds me of some great memories!!!And no it isn't disco!

Devil_Doll-__It_Was_Raining

So its 2:30pm and I'm just now getting up and going!! I'm getting to old for the all nighters! Went to a "somewhat" of a Disco last night... After a little bit I took off the extensions(thank god!!!) and hit the local punk bar Jinx! If that is the only club I go to in this town I'd be happy!!!!

I Will Survive Dance Remix

So the Savannah News papers was there and they got a pic of me and my friends. To the left is Missy (as Blondie), then there is me with my Disco Yarn Extentions and the guy is my friend Chris Cook.... he puts together all these parties and things in this town.

I did however score a pair of kick ass shoes... I'll have to post a pic! Glitter platform made by playboy! I felt so darn cool(ish)!!!

So I have vow'd to get my ass in gear today and work on my arm warmers from Pretty in Punk. I had one almost down and realized I dropped a stitch at the very beginning, damn that sucks. Some time I feel like I frog more than knit. I think it doesn't help that I am an perfectionist!

I know part of this knitting slump is that is it HOT HOT HOT here is Savannah. Temp is high in mid 90's and heat index aroun 110! I can't even cool down the apartment lower than 83. The worst is the humidity, as soon as you get out of the shower you feel like you need another one! Well I really need one right now! I'm sitting in my usual Sunday afternoon the coffee shop with glitter still on me! Hey I like to look good during the day too!!! HA HA HA.... I'm just lazy!
