First off, thoughts and prayers to the shooting victims in Aurora, CO.  WTF is the matter with people?  It saddens me to think about the evil people are capable of. 

Cubs win AGAIN!  For those of you counting at home - that's 14 out of 19 for the Northsiders.  And we're about to acquire the Dodgers top pitching prospect (fingers crossed) for Dempster and Demps is probably going to sign with the Cubs after the season.   Boom!

I'm no Sox fans, but will you please shut the Tigers fans up.  They are annoying the ever living piss out of me with the "we're back" talk.  What happened to 120 wins?  LOL.

Tore up some fried blue gill and salmon last night, but my gut rot this morning has a honky wanting to lay on the couch.  #happyhourproblems

Heading to see a buddy in Michigan this weekend who just got a record deal (he's a DJ).  I'm not the biggest techno fan anymore, but I'm proud of said buddy.  Anyone have some glowsticks I can borrow? 

Over and out....but remember, college football season is a mere 6 weeks away.

They are saying he will be traded before the game today. And possibly to the Cardinals. That effing sucks!   But yes Go Cubs. And good luck to you Ryan Dempster. 

Haven't heard any Cardinals rumors.  Either way, we'd basically be fleecing them so I'd be OK with it.  He's a second half rental player.  Demps LOVES Chicago and lives a few blocks from Wrigley.  He'll be back in Cubbie blue next year.  You can take that to the bizzank! 

lmao. I LOVE that he got back up and tried some more.

This is absolutely chilling. 

Ugh, just a sick morning here.  I've lived in Aurora my entire life (with the exception of my time out and about in college), and this movie theater is about 10 minutes from my house, right across the street from my Target.  I never understand why people always talk about saying prayers for the families of tragedies like this when your god allowed something like that to happen.  Seems counter intuitive, but whatever helps you get by I suppose.  It's just really freaking sad

On a brighter note, another hockey tournament this weekend starting tonight.. game tonight, two tomorrow, one sunday, baseball sunday afternoon.  Gonna be a busy one

Other than that, I don't really have much

11 hours 12 minutes...........

Also...GIFriday!

My cuz is staying with me for a bit, while she's working down here again (HLN) and we spent the morning watching the shooting stuff. It's numbing. It's awful.

Here's my other new roomy for the next little while, Abigail. She's a total pick me up tho.


For some reason the traffic choppers and what not that fly by drive her insane, lol. Apart from that she's in constant chill mode.

I LOVE that dog! Can she do THIS. 

Hey...Ennyone heard from Glenda and if they completed her "Tornado Room"???

The f**t are gross, the tat is pretty awesome.

The Colorado shooting guy is at the right age for parnoid schizophrenia to surface.  Sad.   Stupid news stations here
are asking if "This will make you cancel your plans to see the movie or return your tickets".       Uh, no.  Hell no.

Last weekend with my son, then he goes back to his sperm donor.   I am going to try and drag him out of his room for the movie.

This looks like fun: 

EDITED-because JOE T corrected my grammar, and that just isn't right.

                                                                  (then it just has to be removed. hskrdave)                            Tried to edit the GIF, but it is hard to hit a moving target....

I'm really having a hard time focusing here, now...lol

GIFriday IT girl: Australia's Michelle Jenneke. The Olympics are looking up right now. Her pre-race routine is gold medal worthy.




Here's more from the lovely Miss Jenneke - AUSSIE-AUSSIE-AUSSIE!! OY-OY-OY!!

***UPDATE*** "Shelly," as she his known in her native land down under, will not be in London. We can now all go back to not giving a crap about the Olympics and/or just making fun of the whole hoopla in a very mean spirited* way.




*It's like if the WNBA only played games once every 4 years.

HUH...there are still the swimmers, so bite your tongue Canadian Marc!

Watching United States of Bacon.

I hope you are hydrating yourself.

Went and saw TDKR last night, so didn't hear about the shooting until I woke up this morning. Sad stuff. The girl who worked as a Colorado Avalanche correspondent got me - she was in Toronto last month and just left the mall before that shooting started, then became one of the 12 that died today.

The movie itself was pretty great. Sometimes had a little too much going on, and besides one little switch-a-roo, I was glad that I could follow along from my previous Batman knowledge. Bane was easy to understand outside of maybe one or two lines, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt had another solid performance, I really do love that dude.

Just under 53 hours till I get my first tattoo!  I have some questions. 

Should I have a full stomach before going in? 
Hydrate?
Someone to hold my hand?
A supply of Aquaphor? or other type of tatt balm?
Cancel plans that include any water activity?
Bring my teddy?

letme guess....Kings Stanley Cup tattoo.

I just realized (yep took awhile) 'f**t" wasn't a naughty word. 


Q'rs, the zoo was a blast, the Flamingos are still gorgeous and the Giraffes are still tall. Did you know some giraffes tongues are between 18-20 inches long? yeah, learned that yesterday...I have nothing really, the Colorado thing is very sad, makes me think if the human race could get their heads outta their asses this planet would be a pretty kickass place to live. Still learning how to post a gif, soooo, that is all.
Hug someone, in person, in your mind, wherever
PEACE

Depends on how long you will be there, being hungry won't change anything
never hurts, don't drink before going, alcohol thins the blood, makes you bleed more, also smoking thins your blood and makes you bleed more, so avoid doing that too
if you are a pansy, yes
I bought the smallest jar of Aquaphor on my last and it is still half full
yes, avoid submerging the tattoo for a while, till it heals(about a couple of weeks
See response 3

Bleed? I'm going to bleed? The stuff I go through for this team I love so. (Besides.....close your eyes Nyce and any other squeamish others.......it's not like us ladies don't know how to bleed.)

I don't think I'm a pansy, but I've never gotten a tatt so I can't tell for sure.

I already have a little Aquaphor from when my nephew stayed with me. With your info, I'm assuming that is enough. Thanks. That stuff is expensive.

couple weeks? I can do that. 

Thanks for the info.....it's helped.

Oh, so I bought beer again... idk why I keep doing this. It's like me and the flavored waters. Anyway, it was a variety pack, so why not? And people apparently had created their own, so I did the same. Last night I had Sam Adams summer something and an Irish Red. I drank them but they rate about a 6.7. Sam Adams has a bitter thing going on. ew. I may try the coast ipa tonight. No idea what ipa means.

And I'm gone.


Jason, fill in the blanks! ____ ___ ___, ____! and enjoy your stupid vacation!

Hola amigos y amigas!

Went to a bbq last night for a friends wife's bday. He is hawaiian so he always has spam musabi, fried noodles, and some mussels. He didn't disappoint. It was delicious. Anyways he made a lot of different kind of shots, and I tried them all. I was a lil tipsy last night. I may have called and texted some people.
I'm glad that I did drink last night, because this morning when I came to work our H.R. Manager was here with the branch manager to announce to us that they are officially closing our branch. Their severance package sucks and I will need to find a new job sooner than I thought. On the bright side. NO MORE WIGGY!!
I hope that you all have a wonderful weekend and have a drink for me!

Jokes? What jokes? All facts, Hotty Pants. Nature. 

*Puts on flame retardant clothing*

Today's shootings just made me angry at the senselessness of it all. The act itself of course is reprehensible, sick, and a special kind of evil. Luckily, justice will take care of that subhuman. That's all I have to say about that "person," since it's more than he deserves.

However, the reaction makes me almost as angry, because in the end, nothing will happen. Everyone wrings their hands for a few days when this happens (and it happens disturbingly often). People say things like "thoughts and prayers to the victims," which when you think about is a completely empty and meaningless phrase. There's precious little discussion on the state of mental health care in the country. There's precious little constructive discussion on gun control, mainly because of the stranglehold the NRA has on our politicians (and yes, this is an actual "both sides do it" situation). The result? Nothing. Ever. Happens. Nothing changed when a member of Congress was shot and a 9 year old was murdered, and nothing will change now after 71 were shot and 12 died for the simple crime of wanting to see a movie. How many more senseless deaths before something actually changes?
