Effin' UPS

I am sooo mad today. I had 9 packages due to be delivered today by UPS, all of which are gifts. So I am home all damn day waiting and waiting, And nothing. So I go online to check on the status of them. 4 of the 9 claim to be delivered at the front door at 2:06 pm today. Well who's effin house did you deliver them to cause it wasn't mine. I call UPS and they have no clue. The chick says that she's going to put in a tracking request and find out what the heck is going on cause if I was home then there is no way they could have delivered to the house without me knowing. Not to mention that 3 of the boxes "delivered" are part of a 7 piece item so why did all of it not get "delivered" today?? Talk about duh! Now I have to go through heck to try and get this taken care of. Grrrr...I'll update this post as I gather more info. I'm going to look around the outside of the house and tomorrow check with the neighbors and see if they even saw UPS yesterday.

UPDATE:: I GOT 3 OF MY BOWFLEX PACKAGES BUT 4 ARE JUST MISSING. THE THING FROM TARGET ARRIVED AND THE GIFT FOR MIKE CAME TOO..NOW WE'RE JUST WAITING FOR A CLAIM TO BE FILED ON MY BOWFLEX SO I CAN GET THE REST OF IT

amrdrn rbaf sod gt

WTF you might be asking. Well, I'm on AOL talking to my mom via IM and this is how the conversation goes. things in ( ) i added for explaination

Me: Well it's time for me to take my pills and get ready to go ninites (what my 18 month old says when he's tired)

Mom: amrdrn rbaf sod gt

Mom: what was all that jumble I typed?

Me: lol I don't know I didn't type it

Mom: Neither did I

Me: well then who did? bridget? Keesha? (her 2 dogs)

Mom: the candy cane? (her animated buddy icon on AOL)

Me: if the candy cane is typing i'm done using computers

(We then get into a discussion of what it could have been she was trying to say)

Me: maybe it was "i am getting ready for bed so good night"

Mom: no i don't think so

Me: well then it must be "am ordering roast beef sod get"

Mom: either way you look at it something is wrong

Me: lmao

Mom: what does lmao mean

Me: laughing my ass off

Mom: pmplso

Me: what? are you not typing again?

Mom: no i'm laughing so hard i'm crying and i can barely see to type

Mom: peeing my pants laughing so hard so it should be pmplsh

Me: rotflmao and that means rolling on the floor laughing my ass off

Mom: well i am going to bed so good night

Me: so maybe I was right that "amrdrn rbaf sod gt" means "i am getting ready for bed so good night"

Mom: maybe

Me: well then "amrdrn rbaf sod gt"

Mom: whatever you say RAINBOW (from mad tv)

Me: Night

Mom: night

By the end of this conversation I can't see from crying so hard from laughing.

So my question is... WTF does "amrdrn rbaf sod gt" mean?

BIG PIMPIN'

We went to Arizona Mills the other day, and no matter what mall we go to I have to look around in spencers. Well while we're looking around this Santa Pimp hat catches my eye. And being the goof that I am I put it on my son's head. The hat is funny on an adult but sooo damn cute on him! Just had to share.

A task for the readers

I have an assignment for everyone who reads this blog. As those who know me are aware I have a thing for Fairies. I have a collection of them at home as well as a tattoo. I am now starting an online collection of Fairies. If you can find them please send them my way and I will post them with the person who gave me my fairy.

I have my snow fairy already to start things off.


Thanks,

New Car...for ME

Just wanted to post a few pics. We traded in the Trailblazer on the 29th of November, for an '07 Pontiac Torrent. So far I really like it, it's a little smaller then the Trailblazer and better on gas. Which is a plus.

STUPID CHEVY

This is a picture of the train wreck we call Mike's Camaro. This is from when it was running good and he was able to take it to Speedworld. But since this post is about this piece of junk I figured a picture from when it wasn't junk would be nice.

So, this past weekend Mike had to go to the Land of ONE Grocery Store for Drill. If you don't know where I'm talking about click here. So at 11pm Friday night I get a call from him saying he made it there but now his car won't start and he thinks it's the battery and he wants me to drive down. I laugh at him, and tell him I am not waking up our son to drive 2 1/2 hours cause his shit mobile won't start, and that I'll have my mom watch the baby and I'll come down Saturday and we'll fingure out what's wrong and fix it.

So Saturday I take the 2 1/2 hour drive in the rain and residual flooding to go help him with his crapper. I get there at 5pm, his car won't start has no lights and all you hear is a clicking noise when you crank it. Now about a year ago we had the same problem with the car and we got a new battery but the old battery load tested full, so something is not right and causing the car to think the battery is dead. So we go to Autozone and he ends up getting a 5/16" battery ratchet and a light tester to make sure he didn't blow any fuses on the way down from all the flooded roads. But we don't buy any parts.

We then go to dinner and Walmart to get tums and a fleece for me cause it was cold and I don't have a jacket. We stop at another Autozone and buy the positive and negative battery cables, only one problem you need a lift to put the positive on. And since the car won't start we can't exactly put it on a lift. So still nothing useful is bought.

We go back to base and push the car out of the 10 minute spot it's been in for about 21 hours, and nothing is working. So we finally cave and go to Checker and buy a battery. Now the whole time the battery we already have is load testing as full and Mike's multimeter is showing it's got 12.6 volts so we know the battery is good, but because this seems eerily like the last time we try it again. $100 later we get back to base put the new battery in and voila it starts right up.

After all that we're both ready for a drink and a nice hard wall to slam our heads up against. So we decide to take a walk to the Enlisted club for some drinks. It's a 15 minute walk in the dark, in the cold and on rocks non the less with no street lights and i'm in flip flops. We get there and they are f'ing closed! On a Saturday at 8pm they're closed!!! I was not happy, so we turn around and walk to the shopette and buy some drinks and go back to Mike's room. We have a few drinks talk about his stupid car and his project for school and by 11pm we're asleep.

He gets up at 5 to get ready for work and I get up at 10 pack the room check out for him then leave. I stop to get breakfast and get home around 12:30 and put Monkey down for a nap then unpack the car.

Mike gets home about 4:30 and when he pulls into the garage his car stalls then won't stay started. It's got some smoke coming out of it but that's pretty normal since he has an oil leak. So we leave the garage door open for a while to let the smoke and stink of burning oil go away and about 4 hours later he goes out and the damn thing starts no problem, and stays running.


I JUST DON'T GET IT...WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS STUPID CHEVY! If anyone has any suggestions or answers please let me know.
