Finally…the secret of life
this was sent to me by one of my volunteers...

On the first day God created the dog. God said, “Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. I will give you a life span of twenty years.”

The dog said, “That’s too long to be barking. Give me ten years and I’ll give you back the other ten.” So God agreed.

On the second day God created the monkey. God said, “Entertain people, do monkey tricks, make them laugh. I’ll give you a twenty-year life span.”

The monkey said, “How boring, monkey tricks for twenty years? I don’t think so. Dog gave you back ten, so that’s what I’ll do too, okay?”

And God agreed.

On the third day God created the cow. God said, “You must go to the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer. I will give you a life span of sixty years.”

The cow said, “That’s kind of a tough life you want me to live fifty or sixty years. Let me have twenty and I’ll give back the other forty.” And God agreed again.

On the forth day God created man. God said, “Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. I’ll give you twenty years.”

Man said, “What? Only twenty years! Tell you what, I’ll take my twenty, and the forty the cow gave back and the ten the monkey gave back and the ten the dog gave back, that makes eighty, okay?”

“Okay,” said God, “You’ve got a deal.”

So that is why the first twenty years we eat, sleep, play, and enjoy ourselves; for the next forty years we slave in the sun to support our family; for the next ten years we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren; and for the last ten years we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone.

Life has now been explained to you.

Well I did end up going to Rolla. Was I well enough to? No not really. But I went and partied and did the whole thing. It was a good weekend but it had some bad moments. To top it off, I am now just as sick as I was on Thursday plus an upset stomach. That is all you are getting for now. I will post a private blog later. Nutangers - message me for the password.

Ok so they only called me once but still come on people it is my day off. I took vacation and I am sick as hell. I was sleeping peacefully until about 10:20 am when I hear my annoying ringtone. I rolled over to look at it figuring it was a wrong number. Nope it was my number, my direct dial line at the office. So I answer it. What do they want you might ask.

Well here is the conversation

Beth: "Hello."
Cindi: "Did I wake you up?"
Beth: "Yes. What do you need?"
Cindi: "Are you still sick?"
Beth: "Yes. What do you need?"
Cindi: "Have you taken anything?"
Beth: Deep sigh. "Yes, Cindi. What do you need?"
Cindi: "Oh, Beth were is the Family FOS master copy?"
Beth: "It is in the top left hand drawer of my desk."
Cindi: "No we looked there."
Beth: "Why do you need it?"
Cindi: "Katrina and Rhonda are down here and they want it."
Beth: "Check the top locked cabinet and tell them the master better be on my desk on Monday because if they lose it I will kill them."
Cindi: "Ok."
Katrina: "Sorry we woke you up."
In my own head...Yeah you better be you skanky whore. (Katrina and I don't like each other much.)
Beth: "Ok, bye now."

Of course after all of this I could not get back into that wonderful sickness curing sleep that I was in so I got up. Now I want to make breakfast. The problem is that I don't have any Orange Juice. That is not a really big deal to some people but when I am sick all I crave to drink is Orange Juice. It is probably just a mental thing, you know, my brain thinks that OJ will help me feel better so it craves it when I feel like crap. But also right now it is one of the few things I can taste... Ok that was a little of the subject. So I want OJ with my breakfast but we don't have any cause I finished it off last night. In order to have OJ with my breakfast I would need to shower and then drive to the grocery store, which is less then half a mile away, to get it. But right now I am trying to decide if it is worth it. So here is my thought pattern....

I would like Orange Juice. But I would need to brush my teeth, shower, get dressed, go to the grocery store and then come back and make breakfast.
So it the cost of getting ready and driving to the store worth the Orange Juice? Possibly. Or, this will never happen by the way, should I use the 3 Oranges I bought and make my own.... ha!

What a day and it is only 11 AM... Well I guess I am just going to shower...I have to do it at some point today and I might as well do it for Orange Juice.... I love Orange Juice.

I have made an executive decision about the list. I had number 7 marked as completed. This is now changed. Until I can honestly mark off number 6 I will not mark 7 as completed.

Thank you!

Ok so I went to work today. I basically got nothing accomplished at all. My boss didn't care though so....

I did go to Catholic Supply after work today. I was looking for a gift for my RCIA sponsor. I found a couple of things that I think she would like so I am going to decide and then go back. I did find a few things for myself. 8)

I don't feel horrible anymore just still a little yucky. I ate some dinner and now I am going to get some sleep. I hope I can get like 12 hours... then maybe I will feel better.

Nutangers are the best! Thanks for the well wishes. I already feel a little better after my little bit of sleep. I need to take my temperature again. I was at about 99.4 earlier. I just want to make sure I don't get a fever.

Btw...I can't sleep cause it is storming really bad here. Thunder and lightening and all of that and I hate to admit it but I am afraid of thunderstroms. I will probably post something else random later on... Night all

Sick... which I am. I have a terrible head cold and I feel like my head might pop. This always happens before I have vacation... does anyone else have that problem?

So here is my recipe for getting over a cold...
- 30mL Tylenol Cough & Sore Throat
- 1 Grilled Cheese with Bacon <- my second favorite sick food
- Approx 40 oz Tropicana OJ extra calicum, no pulp(This is the best OJ cause it isn't from concentrate)
- Sleep

I have to go to work tomorrow no matter how bad I feel. 8( I am almost out of sick days and they would believe I was sick anyway since I am on vacation on Friday.

Ok I need sleep. Oh and I am jealous of elessar...I want to go camping.
