Five Levels of Hangovers - Appropriate for my upcoming birthday ;)
Current mood: drunk

Five Levels of Hangovers

One Star Hangover (*)

No pain. No real feeling of illness. You're able to function relatively well. However, you are still parched. You can drink 5 Cokes and still feel this way. For some reason, you are craving a steak & fries.


Two Star Hangover (**)

No pain, but something is definitely amiss. You may look okay, but
you have the mental capacity of a staple gun. The coffee you are
chugging is only increasing your rumbling gut, which is still tossing around the fruity pancake from the 3:00 AM Waffle House excursion. There is some definite havoc being wreaked upon your bowels.


Three Star Hangover (***)

Slight headache. Stomach feels crappy. You are definitely not
productive. Anytime a girl walks by you gag because her perfume reminds you of the flavored schnapps shots your alcoholic friends dared you to drink. Life would be better right now if you were home in your bed watching Lucy reruns. You've had 4 cups of coffee, a gallon of water, 3 iced teas and a diet Coke--yet you haven't peed once.


Four Star Hangover (****)

Life sucks. Your head is throbbing. You can't speak too quickly or else you might puke. Your boss has already lambasted you for being late and has given you a lecture for reeking of booze. You wore nice clothes, but that can't hide the fact that you only shaved one side of your face. For the ladies, it looks like you put your make-up on while riding the bumper cars. Your eyes look like one big red vein, and even your hair hurts. Your ass is in perpetual spasm, and the first of about five shits you take during the day brings water to the eyes of everyone who enters the bathroom.

Five Star Hangover (*****)

You have a second heartbeat in your head, which is actually annoying the employee who sits in the next cube. Vodka vapor is seeping out of every pore and making you dizzy. You still have toothpaste crust in the corners of your mouth from brushing your teeth in an attempt to get the remnants of the poop fairy out. Your body has lost the ability to generate spit so your tongue is suffocating you. You don't have the foggiest idea who the hell the stranger was passed out in your bed this morning. Any attempt to take a dump results in a fire hose like discharge of alcohol-scented fluid with a rare 'Floater' thrown in. The sole purpose of this 'Floater' seems to be to splash the toilet water all over your ass. Death sounds pretty good about right now...

2 YEARS AGO TODAY!
Current mood: chipper

So, again, we'll just verify that I'm a HUGE NERD, but 2 years ago today, my crazy friend Julie decided to take me out for my birthday as I was going out of town for my actual birthday.  She picks me up at my house and we decide to go, where else?  Big Wangs...and who do I meet?

And now??

Not too much has changed except my hair color, which has gone back to how it was when we met :)

I still owe Julie a great big thank you!!  :)

And yes, I'll post this every year...I'm not afraid!!

Bored outta my MIND!!
Current mood: bored

So, I really need to stop working so fast, because I have essentially left myself nothing to do today, and through Wednesday when my vacation starts.  I'm sure there will be little things here and there, but nothing to make the day FLY by, which was what I was hoping this one would do.  It's Friday for crying out loud...AND it's the boy's first weekend off that we're actually in town for.  I mean, I know that he'll have the weekends off from now on, but I want to pop this ones' cherry right.   So hurry up 4:30 and get here quickly you elusive lil bitch.

And this only took two minutes out of my wonderful day.  Christ, I'm going to smoke.  Slowly. 

Love you.

So sad...
Current mood: sad

I had the best morning ever.  I wasn't tired, and I felt funny and was just enjoying life for once. 

Now, there's a spider living on my office door, and I feel like he's my only friend....I'm so sad.  I feel like everytime I take a step forward, I'm pushed two steps back.  And I'm trying so hard, but it's never going to be my turn...and I don't fucking care if I'm throwing myself a pity party...I was having such an amazing week and only caring about other people and making sure they were happy...guess I should have spent some of that time making myself happy.

Zales and I may have some retail therapy to discuss tomorrow afternoon.  Anyone want to go with me?

Poor Kitties - Feline Abuse
Current mood: sad

I know I want to be a crazy cat lady and all, but I think I'll stop at ten ;)

Please read and pass along:

A home literally overrun by cats got the attention of local police as well as the SPCA Sunday night. But they weren't legally able to do much to help.

Several of the animals were dead and more than a dozen others appeared sickly--all while the homeowners were no where to be found.

It all happened at a property on Chestnut Street in Elmwood Place.

When 9News Reporter Lance Barry first arrived on the scene, two cats were laying dead on the sidewalk. More than a dozen others were freely wandering outside.

According to residents in this neighborhood, all of this was happening as the pets' owners and owners of the home are on vacation.

As of Sunday night, many of the cats remain. The Hamilton County SPCA says legally they can't do a thing about it.

One of the more fortunate cats was able to meow, but others found outside the home weren't even able to make a noise. It was conditions like these that prompted the SPCA to take away some of the sickest.

Their actions come too late to please Sam Phelps who lives across the street from the home that neighbors say is owned by Marcia and Kevin Kammers.

"It has been going on for a couple of years and a lot of people here on the street have made complaints with the village and the SPCA and nothing was ever done about it," said Phelps.

Two of the cats were found outside dead--one on the sidewalk, and another underneath an empty beer box.

The SPCA wasn't able to take away all the cats, and they tell us that's for a reason. Unlike dogs, state law does not allow them to take away stray cats unless they have serious health issues. That was unwelcome news to those who live near them.

"Everytime the SPCA gets called they take two (cats), so I figure there are 25 over there, a few more calls, they will all be gone," said neighbor Billy Plavsic.

So where are the cats' owners? Neighbors here tell us the Kammers are on vacation and that they often leave for long weekends during the summer--leaving all this behind.

"Even when they are here, they (cats) are out. It doesn't make a difference," said Plavsic.

"I am suprised you don't see more than what you do with the way they have been treated," said Phelps.

Despite the conditions, it doesn't look like there are any criminal charges pending.

We're told again, that is because cats generally are classified differently than dogs. Much to the dismay of residents here, the SPCA says their hands are tied. The SPCA was able to give the cats some food, but many of the felines were simply left behind.

PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO CONTACT THE SPCA AND ASK THAT THEY REMOVE THE REMAINING ANIMALS AND CHARGE THE OWNERS WITH CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.

The SPCA's lack of action in this situation hinges on the perception that the remaining cats are strays, however it could easily be argued that these cats are not strays, but simply unsocialized outdoor cats belonging to the homeowners. Some of the animals were already found dead. Please contact the SPCA before its too late for the rest of them.

To contact the SPCA, call or write to:

Hamilton County SPCA
3949 Colerain AVE
Cincinnati, OH 45223
Phone: (513)541-6100
Fax: (513)542-7722

Ughhh!! Feel icky...
Current mood: accomplished

..> ..> ..>..>

I'm very paranoid lately.  I feel like people are talking about me.  It's icky.  Blacking out is icky too, not knowing what you did or how you acted feels just disgusting.  And then I think people are talking about it nonstop and I'm the only one who doesn't know what happened.  My brother told me to get over it, that I was funny, but he's a lovely person and he's supposed to say that.  Boyfriend and I got into a drunken fight in front of everyone (embarrassing enough) but now I'm CONVINCED that people think we fight too much and aren't good together.  Just because of one fight in public.  Even though I know most people are jealous of our relationship and how we can't hang out at night without at least one person telling us how cute we are together and how happy and wonderful and blah blah we are.....so yeah, I'm crazy. And on a lighter note, I'm not just concerned about what people are saying and doing and shit like that....last night I also swore there was a snake in my bed.  Now granted, I was half asleep, but it freaked me out so badly that I had to go get Butters and make her lay in the bed to me to prove there was no snake in the bed.  Hey!  I never claimed to be sane.  Today I talked to a bug in Megans office...yeah, a bug.  I told him to walk near the walls so people wouldn't see him and step on him...Megan laughed at me, but I was REALLY concerned about lil Buggy's welfare.  I like Bugs, I'm a freak... That's all...just thought I'd share how psycho I am with the world.  I guess the good thing is I'm still okay with me and I like being this way ;) Love you.
