Yeah ok, so maybe I'm not as bad as this poor hound, but drinking on Monday nights are a definite no no. I went out with a friend last night; we went to the San Diego Brewing Company. Cool place w/alot of great beers to sample..actually too many good beers to sample. We chit-chatted from around 6:30ish to 11:30ish downing a beer here, there and everywhere while in the process. You know that old saying that mom use to give "not on a school night", that still applies now as a 29 year old in the work force. I've learned my lesson (for this month anyway...hahaha), no more drinking on school nights. So now I will suffer the consequences for the rest of the day until I can happily plunge into my warm cozy bed and sleep it off this evening. I hope everyone has a great day!!!!

WEDNESDAYS
Ok for today's blog I decided to combine two of my favorite things, my love for hump days since the weekends is right around the corner (especially when you are on summer hours like I, and you get off on Fridays at 12:00pm...I'm not bragging or anything....yeah, I really am :) and Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean (not sure why really since he acts a little feminie sometimes, but man does he look good in those leather pants)..ROWR!!! The new trailer for "At World's Edge" looks fabulous! Combine the two together and you get the above; so happy hump day folks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Monday, March 19, 2007
JOB REFLECTION
Ok, so take this picture and throw a long straight brown wig on him and picture me today. I'm in that time of the year where work sucks! It is boring and tedious, but busy nonetheless, just not in a good way. And we all go through it, but I'm just grateful for this forum so I can vent about it. Though my friends here in SD hear about it enough as it is (Jillie, Jodes, and Dani)..hehehe. For those of you who don't know what I do (which that would be most since I haven't really mentioned it before), I am the Associate Director for the San Diego County Combined Federal Campaign. It is the once a year federal campaign for all military, federal, and postal personnel. Here in SD it is huge and during campaign season I am busy as all hell (in a good way), training voluntolds (as we say in the military...oh, I'm a former Marine Officer...so that's why I still say we), public speaking, campaign kick-offs, materials pack-out etc.. From August through December it is a blur of activity. January-July..tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock. Days go by slow and I am buried under a mountain of paper work in preparation for the next campaign.So what am I getting at here you might ask??? Not to much other then getting in my god given right to whine and moan about it, but in a positive way. I really love my job; I just want more excitement and I am not patient enough to wait for it, but the complaining helps sooo thanks everyone for listening to me unload. Much happier blog on Wednesday :) Happy Tuesday (or happy Monday night if you look at this now) either way, Oh Happy Day!!!!!!!!!!!

TOP OF THE MORNING TO YA
Just wanted to wish everyone a great weekend and a wonderful St. Patty's day if you celebrate it. I myself am not Irish. Infact, pretty far from it; but being an east coast gal from Scranton, PA, St. Patty's was a right of passage. Every year on the Saturday closest to March 17th, the bars would open at 5:00am and downtown would be an intoxicating blur of drunkin Scrantonians running around screaming happy St. Patrick's Day. We would all then bar hop throughout the day until the parade started and then eventually find our way back to another bar and dance until the glow of day. ahhhh memories. So hear's to all you Irish eyes out there and to the ones that aren't, but love to celebrate it.Thursday, March 15, 2007
PATHETIC ATTEMPT AT HNT
Ok, so this is my pathetic excuse for HNT this week. Unfortunately, I have no pics of me really in bare mode anywhere on the body. Infact, I have not many pics of me in general, which I am sure I will come to regret later on in life. Anyway, I was at work, in my office, had a skirt on and decided to provide something relevant for HNT utilizing my work digital camera. Ta dah!!!! Best I can do, but as we move from week to week I will try and get better. So enjoy the legs and enjoy the day!!

GREEN TEA
As I was sitting here this morning trying to figure out what to post, I glanced over at my seeping cup of hot, wonderful GREEN TEA and decided to post some pretty interesting information on it. I am your everyday, gym crazed, psycho, health nut. Over the past couple months I've been looking into different supplements, meal replacements, foods and drinks that could help me to just feel good and energized each and every day. As most people know green tea has been around for a long time and there have always been rave reviews about the health benefits of drinking green tea. Since there are so many different health recommendations on the market these days, I thought I'd attach a few facts about this great and all natural health source you can get anywhere. Here are some of its benefits;Benefits of green tea and its effects were discovered 4,000 years ago and since then has been considered a wonder drink! The green tea ingredients are the ones responsible for its amazing health benefits. They are called polyphenols! Polyphenols are considered the most effective of all antioxidants and the amounts as well as the effects are far higher compared to black tea. Asian population are experiencing the effects and benefits of drinking green tea. Statistics have shown that Asians have a lower risk of acquiring diseases because of their healthy lifestyle. Another health benefit of green tea is it's potential to act as a protective agent against premature death from heart disease and cancer. Drinking this tea is said to lower the levels of total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol, thereby reducing platelet aggregation, and helping keep blood pressure in check. Other health benefits of drinking green tea are the following:
• fights against cancer
• helps stabilize diabetes
• prevents cardiovascular disease
• it keeps your skin acne-free, making it healthier and prettier
• assists in weight loss regimen
• slows the aging process
• aids your digestion
• encourages bowel regularity
• provides you with a mild stimulating effect without causing sleepless nights or nervousness especially during pregnancy
You can do a lot of things with this green drink. The health benefits are not only confined to drinking but you can also medicate with it. What else? You can cook with it! Use the leftover liquor to water your plants, and keep your cat's litter box fresh and pleasant smelling. These powerful health benefits of green tea cannot be compared to any other substance in the world without a single side effect. I drink green tea once a day in the morning right when I get to work and I keep a fully loaded drawer of it and some herbal honey. So what are you waiting for??? Have you had your green tea today?

Thanks!!!
Well today's blog is a heartfelt thanks for a number of different reasons. First I want to thank Jodes for making my blog look so incredibly cute. I have two little Siames cats, so she knows of my love for kittens. So thanks soooo much; I really love it. Next I want to thank Jillie for sending all of you great, wonderful and amazing people my way to visit my blog...so thanks Jildo (hehehehe) and next I want to thank everyone who has taken the time to drop by and say hello. Welcome to my blog and I look forward to getting to know you all better. My blog will probably run a litte differently then my two swettie pies Jodes and Jillie. I tend to not get a chance to get on until the afternoon or late morning or sometimes not until the evenings at home cause work can get a little hairy for me during the day. With that being said, if it takes me a bit to reply back to posts or to drop by and say hi on other blogs it is because of work, but I promise to eventually get there so hang in there with me and know that I am not blowing anybody off. I really like hearing what everyone has to say so therefore THANKS for your patience with me as well, as I try and become a dedicated blogger. As for this weekend, I think Jillie hit the high points in her blog, but I will say that I'm not so inclined to have any more margaritas anytime soon. 5 in a matter of a 2-3 hours was quite enough and then topping those off with rum and coke, red bull and vodka, and sunshine lemonade did not help will the ole' hangover yesterday if you know what I mean. Let's just say I didn't partake in to much of the sunny Sunday we had here in San Diego. Lessons learned..until the next time around that is..hehehehe. It was great seeing my girls; I had a good time Jillie, Jodes and Dani and can't wait to do it again. Let's not wait another 3 months this time around. Love ya all!!
