Thursday Thirteen 9/27/07

My foot has officially been broken for a week now. This is just 13 fairly random observations.

1. A week off of work is a lot more fun when you are not drugged most of the time.

2. I am a danger to myself and others while using crutches.

3. A walking boot is just as awkward as it looks.

4. According to my Orthopedic doctor it is actually against the law for me to drive with the boot on. (For the record, I will wear my post-op shoe while driving.)

5. My toes are ugly and I can't hide them with shoes.

6. My husband's solution for everything seems to be throw drugs at it. I think the dog might have stepped on my foot last night. I just remember waking up crying in pain. He puts 2 pain pills in my hand with a glass of water. I don't think I moved for several hours.

7. He says that I have been talking in my sleep.

8. Well, goody, he has been doing it for years and drugs have nothing to do with it.

9. Almost everyone has asked me if I was drunk.

10. If I had been drunk, I would not have hurt myself.

11. I haven't gotten anything done this week. The drugs make me sleepy.

12. Stairs are a bitch when you have a broken foot.

13. I can sleep any time any place. As a matter of fact I dozed off between 12 and 13.

My Clumsiness...

Appearantly, my nearest and dearest friends and family think that I am clumsy. Now I have never thought I was the most graceful person in the world, but I tend to hurt myself in the stupidest ways possible.

I still have scars from tripping and falling down at a Halloween party last year. People still ask me what happened to my knees.

Thursday night I was at a bachelorette party for a friend. While walking back to one of my friend's apartment, I stumbled, but did not fall. And broke my foot. I hoped, I prayed that it wasn't broken, but I finally went to the ER to get it x-rayed. The ER I work at, I might add. So they sent me home barely able to walk that night. I missed a week's worth of work. I only work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights anyway.

Today the orthopedic put me in a walking boot. Yeah, I am not stumbling around my house with crutches anymore. Seriously, my life was in danger with those things.

I am actually excited about getting to go back to work. There is really only so much staring at the walls that I can stand. The dang foot has hurt so much that I have been drugged most of the time. So I haven't gotten any writing done. Well I could have gotten some done but it would not have made any sense at all.

Thursday Thirteen 9/20/2007

Tonight I am going to be going out with a friend for what I hope is her last night on the town as a single woman. Maybe I am crazy for still believing in true love, but I hope this is her one and only marriage. I hope this truly is a forever kind of love for her. With that said I am looking back on my life. This Thursday Thirteen is thirteen reasons I am glad I am married to my wonderful husband. (I can say this here. He never reads my blog. So his head won’t swell after that announcement)

1. He loves me even when I don’t love myself.

2. There is always someone there at the end of a bad day. Sometimes to hold me and tell me that it will be better tomorrow. Sometimes to point out that it could have been worse. But in the end all I really need is him to be there.

3. I don’t have to shave my legs if I don’t want to.

4. He moves heavy things (like boxes of books) and only complains a little.

5. He thinks that I am the smartest woman he knows.

6. The thought of having to date scares the living crap out of me.

7. He gets excited about buying a new washer and dryer. He isn’t excited about needing new ones, just about picking out new appliances (Weird, I know.)

8. My husband always has some comment that makes me laugh my ass off. Never in over 14 years have I ever been bored. Annoyed maybe but never ever bored.

9. He has always done his best to be a good provider. I know that sounds old fashioned, but I have a very strong work ethic. He shares it. He would say that he just likes money, but I know better.

10. He loves my mother.

11. He likes to give me things. I insist that these gifts aren’t necessary or are too extravagant. But now that I think about it, I have never refused any of them.

12. He knows where all my spots are...

13. Almost all married people sigh wistfully when they remember the excitement of falling in love. Everything is shiny and new. And that feeling is great, but no one wants to think about the rest. The fear and insecurity that also comes with new love. Does he really love me? I’ll take a steady man that loves me day in and day out any day.


Here we are last.

This was taken last year on my birthday. My gift tickets to the CMA Awards show. They are outrageously expensive. The year before a 7 night cruise to the Caribbean. This year he wants to get me a new laptop. He said something about pink Alienware. Yep, I am pretty sure I love him.

Thursday Thirteen 9/13/07

Since it is Fall Premier time. Here are 13 shows I am setting my DVR for:

In no particular order

1.Back to You. I love Kelsey Grammer. He is a TV news anchor instead of a radio therapist.

2. Torchwood. A secret goverment agency that know aliens exists.

3. NCIS. Goverment CSI. There is nothing about this show that I don't like.

4. Moonlight. Vampire fighting crime. All good things.

5. Kitchen Nightmares. I love Gordon Ramsey. This is man has no problem telling people exactly what he f-ing thinks.

6. Jericho. Post apocalyptic Kansas. Conspiracies. And Skeet Ulrich.

7. How I Met Your Mother. The only comedy. I just need to know who Ted marries.

8. ER. I have watched this so long it is a habit at this point. I have loved and hated so many characters.

9. CSI:NY . Crimes in NY. The amazing thing is that crimes in NY get solved.

10. CSI:Miami. Same thing, but more skin.

11. Bones. Again this is a near perfect show. Besides we all know how I feel about Seeley Boothe.

12. Blood Ties. Again Vampires solving crimes. Anyone else detecting a pattern here.

13. Heroes. Mutants saving the world. They have saved the Cheeleader and the World, now what? I guess the world will always need saving.

Thursday Thirteen

This is the topic of my Thursday Thirteen.

While watching Bones tonight I realized that I am in absolute lust with David Boreanaz. So I found 13 of the hottest pictures of him that I could find. Actually 14 if you count this one.

1. A Vampire with a soul, what's not to love.

2. Again what isn't to love here. My god, the man is naked in a tub just waiting for... me.

3.My two favorite vampires. I am so glad I took my vitamins today.

4.I have a serious weakness for a man in leather. There is nothing in the world like a warm man wearing leather.

5. As Agent Seeley Booth , the man has a badge and a gun. And handcuffs. Dear god, the man has handcuffs.

6. Just one of the many reasons I have always wanted to be Buffy.

7. Again the man is naked in a tub. And that little bit of goatee that he has going on in this picture just increases the hotness level.

8. I confess, if David asked me to bear his love child I would. It wouldn't even be a hardship if we had to try many, many times for it to take.

9. It wouldn't be a hardship being Temperance. She is smart and beautiful. Her job wouldn't bother me at all.

10. What is it with the bathtub poses. Is the man trying to kill me?

11. Did he get caught out in the rain? Please say yes. There is just something sexy about getting caught in a rainstorm.

12. Just another sexy picture of David. He looks so moody.

13. OK. We can go skinny dipping, if you want to.

The Vampire Oracle

OMG this looks amazing.
