and it keeps getting better

Well, my BFFL Kristine decided to discontinue her Monday Moanings link up, much to my disapproval. So I feel the need to just moan without her. That sounds quite inappropriate, but whatever.
Hopefully you all read my post two days ago about how much I hate my boyfriends jet ski and all the things it brings to my life. If not, please read about it here. This is my biggest moan of the weekend. Oh, add to the that the fact that he goes on these jet skiing weekends with his cousin, who is a TOTAL tool, so he always wants to get hammered and talk to "women". And Chad told me once a couple years ago that he would never cheat on me unless he was completely blacked out... sweet. Then I hear from him today that he passed out at the bar last night. Imagine my delight...
(yes, he does drive it around in the bed of his truck AT ALL TIMES)

My second moaning is about my broke ass. I got paid 3 days ago, and I am already pretty damn broke. I have a second job doing bookkeeping for this awesome lady, but I don’t get paid on a regular basis (I could if I bugged her about it, but getting paid $15 an hour working an average of 6 hours per month doesn’t really make a huge paycheck, so I let it build up for a while before I ask for a check). But, I did take the plunge and cut up both my credit cards, so that makes it a little easier for me to curb my spending habits.
No air conditioning in the bar. Not that I spend a TON of time in the bar or anything. But I went to meet some friends after they floated the river today (don’t get me started on how much I wished I was floating with them), and it was approximately 85 degrees in there. No joke. Granted I spend my time at the little div e bar in town, so I can’t expect TOO much, but a little airflow would be nice.
That’s all for now kiddos. Catch ya on the flip side. Or something…
Side note: Please go over to Kristine’s blog and harass her about taking away her Monday Moanings link up. Because it was amazing. Tell her how much of a “beach” your life can be!

Hello Monday!

Well friends, I am going to link up with my BFFL Kristine for her Monday Moanings link up today. Because, believe you me, I have a LOT of moaning to do.



First off, I would like to complain about a particularly pesky limb that I have. To be more specific, I am referring to my right foot. You see, about 7 years ago or so, something happened to said foot. I don’t know exactly how it happened, but I managed to break it. This break caused the bones to start smashing the nerves between my second and third toes and my foot swelled up to the size of a softball. This was also at a time when I didn’t have my driver’s license yet (that’s right, I was one of those people who didn’t get my license until I was 18) so I had to walk two miles to work on this broken softball foot. Well, I was given the option to have surgery on it, but I graciously declined. However, now my foot pain has come back with a vengeance and I am NOT happy about it. So I may or may not end up having to have that surgery now. Great.
Next on my list is the weather. It is supposed to be summer here people. Yet, we are being plagued by overcast skies and, on many god forsaken occasions, RAIN. IN AUGUST!! What the French, toast? One of my favorite summer activities is floating the river, but that really isn’t a whole lot of fun when it is 64 degrees out and sprinkling.
Last, but not least, my diet. Or should I say, my self control. No matter how many times I look in the mirror and am barely able to stop myself from throwing up, I can’t seem to keep myself on track with good eating habits. Granted, I can’t be blamed for the type of food that people serve at their weddings/barbecues/etc, but I really need to make sure that I am not letting those ‘cheat’ days carry over once I am at home or at work preparing meals.
That’s it for now, friends. But let me just leave you with one last mini moaning - Paddington paid us a visit last night, and this is what he decided to leave as a gift for us…
