Rant Time

Pregnant smoking mothers-to-be!!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRR! Ruth, you'll probably read this. I hope you share the same disgust. haha

To me it's like an unwanted gift... like here ya go, baby I've yet to meet have asthma and I hope that you don't develop properly! I saw a preggo smoker and I have to literrrrrally use invisible duct tape and put it over my mouth so I don't say something as bold as, "Hey lady, how can you be so rude and selfish? Every time you light up, you're making the decision to affect your baby and compromise it's very formation. And that right there, shows the little care for the precious miracle inside of you." And... going a step further... "You don't deserve to be the shell carrying that sweet thang! :D

Pretty good for my first RANT! Hahaha! :)

Now that I've got that outta my way... I can sleep peacefully. LOL

Here is a cute cartoon shedding light on my RANT & below are the facts of babies born to smoking mothers.



Lower birth weight. Smoking reduces the amount of blood that reaches your placenta starving your baby of the food it needs to grow.

Smoking makes it harder to get pregnant in the first place by lowering your fertility.

Once pregnant, smoking makes miscarriages more likely.

After birth, babies born to smoking mothers cry more as they crave the nicotine you do in cigarette smoke.

Babies born to smoking mothers are more likely to die unexplained (SIDS), and to suffer from asthma and ear infections when older.

Children of smoking parents are more likely to smoke too.

The Daily... Today's 411 Update

Good morning! I’m so sleepy…. At work, again. I am excited, however, to get off work and then get to be in my fancy smancy car. It’s probably gonna look grrrrrrrrreat! Haha I’m jazzed!

So today is pretty dreary out. The sky is a murky fog of gray and has every intention of raining all day (I’m sure!). I think me and a co-worker are going to lunch afterwards. We were going to go running but we do have some legitimate excuses that I’ve formulated for your enjoyment:

1.) It’s raining…..
2.) It’s raining…..
3.) I’m tired…….
4.) I’d rather eat than exercise! Haha

So we will probably go to a cute little café called The Twilight Café and have lunch (permitting their hours on a Saturday). Yummi. Then I have a very strong intention of taking a lovely nap! When it’s a day like today it’s almost required you take a nap and be lazy. It’s like the weather is asking you to slow down and enjoy rest! Here is the forecast for today in Evansville, Indiana.

Morning rain… then windy with a mix of rain and snow showers in the afternoon. High 44F. Winds NW at 20 to 30 mph. Precipitation: 100% (hahah)

Ok, well I’ll have to write you back later to give you the stat on my car’s detailing…. Or better yet, I’ll have to give you the “details” on my detailing! Haha I need sleep, I’m not even slightly funny and I know it. Anyways, ttyl…

Ok, so I got my car back! Sweeeeeeeeeet!!! Imma gonna be lookin' fly! haha

Pamper TIME!

(Written at work!)

Calls are slow…. (PS for the blog browser who doesn’t know me, I work in Customer Service at a Credit Card Management Corporation) Whoooot whooo! Anyways, it’s basically deader than a rock when it comes to the call volume. Go figure, considering all day the phone lines BLEW the crap up! J haha…. I’m antsy tonight. Tonight I think I’m going with my friend, Ragen, to the movies. I got free tickets from work! Yay for that! I asked her to look the different movies up while I am at work because my work blocks certain websites. “Shhhh!! Don’t tell ‘em I do it!” ;) Then tomorrow I work for about 4 hours. In the meantime, while I’m getting my “work” on my sweet little car (still haven’t given her a nickname… I’m working on that) is getting a mani/pedi *aka in auto terms – an interior detailing!!* I’m so excited about that! It’s really not a bad price. It will cost $75 which I definitely think is a great price. Are you supposed to tip for service-oriented work? I’ve never gotten my car detailed before… who knows!? I might tip though because the guy I spoke with was super nice and even told me he would go the extra mile and clean my tires and wash it. I wasn’t sure if he meant wash in the inside but since he was referring to tires, I’m thinking he might wash the outside…. Wowzas! So if you see my super schweeeeet ride of a Cavalier blazin’ the Lloyd Expressway…. Holla at me! Haha Because that’s me in my no-longa beater! Oh haha and I hope he doesn’t look in the truck…. No there’s not a dead body… it’s just trashed and fulla crap. Haha he probably will being that he’s super nice he’ll think, “I’m going to be super nice and vacuum out her trunk.” And then he’ll open that beast up and be like, “Holy *insert choice expletive here*!!” LMBO.

Anyways… hope that produced some laughs and shows you the true character of my unorganized habits. Yes, Dr. Libowitz, I’m working on that!

My Portion

Why should I feel discouraged?
Why should the shadows come?
Why should my heart feel lonely?
And long for heaven and home

When Jesus is my portion
A constant friend is He
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches over me
His eye is on the sparrow
and I know He over watches me
His eye is on the sparrow
and I know He watches me

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches (I know He watches)
I know He watches me

(I) I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know, He watches me
He watches me
He watches me
I know
He watches me.

New Beginnings...

It's about time I get started blogging. I write enough as it is so why not bore you all with my rants, raves, and in betweens. Afterall, I do always have interesting updates in my life so why not share my randomness with the world!!!



Right now is a funny stage in my life. Mixed between tickets, car claims, rental cars, 40-hours at work, and 6 credit hours at class, saying my life is calm, slow, and without change would be a complete LIE! (Yes, I mean it!) I think over the past 4 months I've had enough crap magnetize itself to me that I'm determined to announce I will no longer be standing for anymore crap that would attempt to gravitate my way. So if you're reading this blog, Crap, don't let the door hit ya in the butt!!



On an amazingly great note, things are getting done in my life. My car which was a beat-up mess and a half is now looking like a car that hasn't been in 15 million wrecks. Thank goodness for that! I have one minor repair that needs done and then I'll be on my way lookin' fly as ever in my 2002 Chevy Cavalier.... pretty pimp, eh? haha *Please refrain from laughing if you think that this is not sarcastic. This comment was not meant to be read by the unsarcastic-minded individual.* (See pics of the ugliness of my car!)

Anyways, tomorrow is my "Oh, so wonderful!" Psychology test. Zippideedodah! (Spelling?) I've minorly studied and have every intention of draining myself from sleep by waking up at the wee hours of the morning for some more hardcore studying. Whatta champ I am!

I cannot complain. I will have to continue to remind myself who my identity is in and what I stand for.... oh and not to mention the truth that I have the mind of Christ, dangit! Sometimes when it comes to learning in college I do wish my brain would act like Spongebob and and just suck and soak all the info in a jiffy... oh how nice that'd be!

Well, I better sign off for the night. Hope I get some subscribers to join my random thoughts and potentially add comments to it!

:)
