~12-13-04~ I'm sick!

yes i am getting sick! it sucks, cause usually when i get sick it is bronchitis. and that is sort of what it feels like. i knew last night i was going to wake up feeling this way. so at least i was sort of prepared.

i don't think i have been sick for a while. i used to get bronchitis at LEAST twice a year. and that was before i even smoked!!!! the last time i remember having it was back in janurary/feburary 2002. and that was the first time in quite some time. it was really bad though. i even had to go to the emergency room to get a nebulizer thing so i could breath. and i was just barely pregnant, so it took forever to get something cause everyone had to make sure it was ok for the baby. anyways, then it ended up turning into pnemonia!! that was bad. i was sick with just that alone for over a week.

i do not want a repeat! i wasn't wheezy at all today, until now. of course smoking, i'm sure isn't helping it out any. but guess i should smoke away before it turns into full blown bronchitis and i can't for a few days. i sound so intelligent don't i?!

guess what else.....if you work at best buy, don't read.......i got my new printer. i LOVE it. at first i was pretty pissed cause the only one compriable to the one i had was $100 more. that is bullshit!!!! i should be replaced with something almost the same, not just given credit for what i paid to put towards a new one. plus it also pissed me off cause i paid $99 for the 3 year warranty, and now the 3 year warranties are going for $29!!! that is a huge freaking difference as well. so i was pissed and so was bob cause he was actually vocal about it and asked for the manager.

the printer was $350 and it had a $50 mail in rebate.....the manager said he would take off another $50, so we would even with the $250 we paid for the old printer. so all was well i guess.....except i am still pissed i had to fork over $50, that i don't have and now wait for the damn rebate.....and that i had to wait in line forever!!!!!

anyways, the main part of my story.........i get home and hook the printer up, finally get everything going, go to print and it DOES THE SAME EXACT THING THE OLD ONE DID. what the hell?!?!?!?!?! so then somehow it pops into my head that i locked that one button, inside the scanner, i wonder if that is the problem........YEP!!! here the button that i locked was a transportation lock, so if you are going to be moving the printer, all the parts inside don't get jumbled all over you LOCK them. so the reason it was making that noise and not working was cause it was locked!!!!!!!!!!!

so there really was NOTHING wrong with my old printer and now i got a new and better one! so i feel a bit guilty, but then again not. i spent a hell of alot of money in that store, they aren't losing out. and this is just payment for my time messing with you people!!

i'm so crazy huh?! so now i printed out a ton of pictures to put in my christmas cards, but tonight i made a little collage type thing with all the pictures and i like that a lot better. i want to put those in the cards, but i don't want the 50,000 that i already printed to go to waste! sigh...what to do, what to do?!

well, survivor kind of upset me tonight. not so much that the guy won, i didn't really mind him, and not so much the fact that twila didn't win, even though she is who i was rooting for since day 1........but it is the fact that those dumb ass broads still voted for that guy even after he TOTALLY srewed them over!!!! what the fuck are those dumb bitches thinking?!?! that just blows my mind, and it is funny i think, jeff, the host really thought so to, he asked that question a few times, and even STRESSED it more than once. dumb, dumb women!!!! like usual.

i don't think any of my shows are on this week except the finale of top model and the apprentice. them probably nothing til january! that sucks!!!! i guess it is a good thing. i have a TON of shit that needs done this week. saturday is the dinner with the inlaws. tuesday the carpets are getting scrubbed so i have to clean out all the junk from those 2 rooms!! not looking forward to that.

my house still is NOT done, as a matter of fact NO MORE work has even been done on it. granted the weather sucks, but it is only going to get worse this following week! snow, snow, snow.....and i don't even think it is going to be in the 30's!! if so, just lower 30's! it is supposed to be done before christmas.....guess we will see.

speaking of the houses. we drove by the house that i am in love with. granted it was dark, but there were a few problems. it is right on the corner of gibbs and colonial. gibbs is a bit busier street than i wanted to live one. not like the one i live on now, but i would prefer next to no through traffic!!!! and even though the lot is like 3 times what we have now, so is the house, so there is like NO yard! and what there is it is off to the side, and not really functional. so bob really is NOT into it at all!!! another cool thing is the garage has a door on each side. so you can just pull in and pull right out. i thought that was a very cool idea!!! i still love it and would love to see the inside of it. i doubt that i would go $180,000, especially where it is at.....it would be nice to get them down to $150,000!!!! i'm sure bob still wouldn't go for it. unless we got about 5-10,000 allowance for things. the roof looks kind of old, the windows look old, there is NO central air, and it has all hardwood floors (bob wants carpet) who knows what else inside needs fixed. we dont' want something like we have now where EVERYTHING needs updated and we don't have to money to do it. thank god for that hail storm!!!!!!! that is how we are getting anything at all!!!!!!!

oh well, since i am sick, i should really be getting to sleep now. lack of sleep is probably half the reason i am sick in the first place. so i'm going for now..........night!!!
