bfJ is coming home!

Hi all - in case you didn't know - bfJ has been in Texas for the last month doing insurance inspections on boats damaged by Hurricane Ike. He's been pretty busy - mostly trying to find a wireless signal from anywhere but the library - but things are starting to wind down so he can come home! He has been living on the boat so the expenses haven't been nearly as bad if he had to stay in a hotel. And he even got to join a gym for a month for $57.00. sweet! But I have really missed him. Mostly cause-

• The bed is really cold with only one person in it
• I apparently have lost all capability to cook for myself. bfJ does all the cooking (dinner that is) and we eat waaay better when he is home. I HAVE had quite a few salad dinners but haven't really cooked very many veggies.
• I don't drink much beer alone. At home that is.
• I go out way too much when bfJ is away. Not my fault though - there has been lots going on around town. So I go.
• I fall asleep way early which is weird because when he first left I stayed awake way too long.
• I can talk myself out of going to the gym in a nano second!
• Having full control over the remote is going to be something hard to give up!
• Did I mention the bed is waaay too cold alone???

So I'mma smilin' - and I have a party to go to tonight. ::sigh:: bfJ - hurry home!

ENOUGH Already!

 

Political bickering SUX! Unfortunately though it’s come to be routine in a Presidential Election year. ::yawn:: I can’t wait to get back to the stupid car commercials.

So last night my WCB went to the Palin Rally in Greenville. He came back this morning sporting a new button “I’m Voting For The Hot Chic.” It was funny. The other morning I came into work and on our fence around the property is a HUGE McCain-Palin sign. “No, seriously boss, who are you voting for?” It’s all good though cause I agree with him (yes – she’s the hot chic too). I honestly do believe that McCain is the better choice. Let’s face it – nobody is perfect and we certainly have had a few Presidents in our history to prove that! But I do feel that McCain is going to make the better (i.e. more thought out) choices for ALL Americans.

I overheard someone say this morning, “sure Obama is promising no more taxes. He’s going to put everyone out of business so that the average Joe is not going to have a job. No job – no income – no problem – no taxes!” The biggest thing I hear though in support of “that one” is that “that one” is “going to bring our troops home.” Last I heard it was still an all-volunteer Army. Sure they all want to come home – but this is their JOB. If you ask me ANY DAMN DAY OF THE WEEK if I want to go home (from work) I am going to say HELL YES!! But I’m still not going to leave while there is work to be done. And neither are any of our soldiers. While you are making arrangements for everyone to come home (you bleeding heart liberal) why don’t you plan to help them find jobs too?!? Oh yeah – didn’t think about that did you?

So let me get this right – Obama is going to end the war, balance the budget, promise health care to everyone and manage the energy crisis. How long is he planning to be President?
