I should probably update this more. I think last year I said that my New Year's Resolution was to blog more,oops! Things are simply amazing right now. I'll sit down and attempt to write about everything, or I'll just start updating. We're wonderful, healthy, and have made a lot of great changes. I actually achieved my resolutions for 2008 and I'm very pleased. I've come a long way, yeeaaa,biiiitch!

Love and miss you all. I still stalk you guys when I have the time.

Sergio noticed this weird picture on our shopping cart. He said it looked like the kid was pouring vodka and his gay daddy was cheering him on. Oh yea, and I hate Albertson's...it was the only grocery store open at 1 am.

 I've made some friends in my training class with Arise and we're going to celebrate hurrrrr ( part of Sergio's casino) . Well, not all of us. One of the girl's can't make it because she lives 3 hours away and wants to spend time with her baby. The other ladies are older and we don't really talk to them. When I do talk to them, I get so annoyed. Old single ladies who are struggling to raise their children annoy me with questions like " Why are you on the pill? You are married, why don't you want kids?" I have to hold my tongue so many times in that class when the 2 older classmates speak.

Actually, I've been so freakin annoyed for the last 3 weeks. I hate dealing with the traffic down here to get to class, I fall asleep in class because majority of it is boring as hell, but when there's something important..it just doesn't register,haha. I did my first live calls yesterday and today and I seriously almost cried from being so stressed. I've never really had to deal with people, I was always "behind the scenes" and just resolved their disputes and issues. This dude didn't know where the hell he was and expected me to send someone out to help him. He said he was on HWY 90 in NY, passed the Buffalo exit NW and was in a town called Watertown. That is like 4 hours South of Buffalo, I think. I spent 20 minutes trying to dispatch the info he gave me and everyone was like "that doesn't make any sense!" and then he said "OH, I thought you meant where I'm from..I think I'm in....Syracuse!".....think...... I asked if he could see buildings or businesses and he said " I think I saw Lockheed Martin 20 miles ago...maybe 50". It turns out HWY 90 is a restricted area and most tow trucks cannot go on there, only the ones that are contracted with the state or some shit. What was supposed to be a 4 minute call turned out to be an hour an 20 minutes. I ended up calling the cops giving all the info I had and they sent someone to drive around the hwy for this douche bag. I thought God would be nice and give me a nice call after that bullshit, I was wrong. This lady was so strange, she didn't know her phone number (I needed it to look up her Verizon roadside plan). I could see her number, but she needs to verify it. She didn't sound that old either! I needed the year,make and model of her car and she didn't know wtf she drove. "Um, I drive an SUV.....it's blue". I needed the exact make and model because the tow company has certain restrictions,rules,etc. She had to make 5 phone calls to find out that she has a 2003 Ford Explorer. The money is great, the tax write offs are gorgeous, I can work wherever and whenever I want..but omg, I don't think this will last long. I'm hoping that today was one of those rare days. I'm looking into getting certified with Apple and Disney as a back up...ya know, in case I just go apeshit. I'm looking into going back to school, I still don't know what I want a degree in. I can't make up my mind, I always hate something a few weeks later. I'm surprised I'm still married, haha. That sounds so horrible, but I get bored easy. Sergio is the best =)

I had the worst rash ever the last 3 weeks too!!!! I put bug spray on before I went to the park on the 4th of july and I normally never have chemical on me..and I just broke out all over. I went to my derm and the lady at the front said I've been at the derm too many times, that I need a referral. I went to a new primary care dr and she was so anti accutane saying that I had an allergic reaction and she put me on a steroid. Guess, what? That didn't work! Oh, she also was like "I want to test you for Lime Disease" bitch,please. I stopped by my derm's office to see if the referral was acceptable and MY DIEGO IS BACK! I guess Dr. Waterman and Diego made up, I'm so happy. It turns out the lady at the front desk was just being a straight up asshole to me (most likely because my Dr was spilling his guts out to me and loves me ) and I didn't need a referral. They fired her for being such a cunt. My Dr. was mad that I wasn't treated sooner and saw me ASAP. He gave me this kick ass spray that cleared it up...It's like $400..jesus. They had to fire someone else because she was stealing from the office. Diego was asking if I knew someone who needed a job and was like "we really need someone NOW..do you know anyone?" . When my Dr. was looking at me he was like "Where do you work?" . I think he wanted to ask me to work for them but I don't think I ever could. I love them too death but his office is so disorganized and busy. I think I would go insane. On top of that, Diego is always happy and ON. Ya'll ever watch the King Of Queens? Sergio swears I'm a mini Carrie Heffernan. He also saw True Life: I'm from Staten Island and was like "HOLY SHIT, YOU'RE LIKE A STATEN ISLAND GIRL!"   lovely.

 This lady from Sergio's work keeps asking him to ask me what my brother signed before he got into the military. I don't remember what it was, but my brother and dad wouldn't let my little bro sign until the recruiter brought some form. Her son is a lazy prick and I don't feel like helping him out, especially since her son in law is in the military. My brother is out to sea and my other brother is working 60 + hours a week. He's annoyed with me because I won't ask. I don't give a shit. He was all "but she invited us for Christmas @ her brother's 2 years ago" ...the fuck? She's not my mom and he's acting like that shit was special or something. Yes, it's nice she invited us..but it wasn't a big deal at all.  We just sat there.. and watched her son act like a douche. I just don't do favors for people that don't deserve it.We're not friends anyways, she's like 50 something.

I'm done bitching. This always makes me feel better. I'm sorry if half of this doesn't make sense or has really bad typos!

******EDIT******** I'm having problems with replying to people from my comments now. Um, wtf?!

I know a lot of you are into healthy foods. I make this on nights that I don't have time to cook.

I started out with a Filipino Sofrito. I put about...

2 bay leaves
drizzled olive oil
half a red onion
4 cloves of garlic
half of a yellow pepper
half a red pepper
jalepeno pepper
2 table spoons of Cumin
and then I sauteed this for 5 minutes

I added 2 boxes of organic chicken broth
4 drum sticks
2 cans of tomato sauce
I let this cook for about 30 minutes
I added broccoli slaw (shredded broccoli, carrots & red cabbage) & 3 cups of chopped chicken breast 10 minutes before I served this baby.

I top this with shredded Locatelli Pecorino Romano cheese. Soooooooooo yum

Myspace has been so ridiculous for me lately. I'm getting errors, some shit about "phishing", slow, and getting directed to a page I didn't ask for. On another note, I started doing pilates again because my joints are a bit achy. I really want to go to the class w/ the machines at the Contour Spa, but I have this fear of doing things out of my element (in public), especially when I'm alone. This one instructor in a spin class embarassed the shit out of me with Sergio. I have super long arms and legs and I just don't fit normal for someone my height. I adjusted the seat and bar to a height where I was comfortable and she got off of her bike and yelled into the mic "you're all wrong, I can't believe you're spinning like this". Stupid cunt. The height she put me at made it to where I looked retarded and felt so awkward, I wanted to choke her. Yea, I never went back.

Sergio's coworker wants us to go out to dinner with him and his wife this weekend. Everyone knows I gravitate towards food, but the thought of being near these people make me want to poke my own eyes out. We're not all on the same page, that sounds so horrible, but it's true. I think they're 27, but they act like they're 12. He got her pregnant when they were 17 and he married her soon after. I guess he never got to get shit out of his system, so a lot of the things he says and does is immature. They're constantly fighting about ridiculous things (I don't really know him, but the stories Sergio tells me gives me a headache). I've known of them for 3 years and he's always walking home, or taking the car and leaving her out in public by herself...or she's accusing him of cheating and going apeshit crazy. They fight in public, even at the company Christmas party we were all at. I do not want to end up in an awkward situation with these folks.

I'm going to vent like you, B! I want people at my level. No one too old, or too immature. I can't find people balanced or in between. Most people my age aren't where I am in life. I don't think I've ever fit with anyone my age anyways.  I did the party thing for awhile, but I kind of had to with my job. I got pissed at one of my friends this week (thank you,PMS..or maybe I had the right to be). She asked what I did this weekend and I said that Sergio and I did a lot of shopping, went to the movies and just spent a lot of time together because I didn't see him a lot this week,because he had to work after hours. Her reply was "and.....you're ok with that?"  Ok..what the fuck am I going to do? Yell and scream at him for working? This hard work is paying off. I'm starting to think that people live in a fantasy world. This is coming from someone who lives with their parents who pays for everything, chases away every man who has ever been interested in her because she's jealous/has low self esteem, the last guy she was with was going through hard times (money wise) and bitched at her for wanting to go to the MOVIES...and you want question if I'm okay with my husband having to work beyond his hours? Sergio wishes he could leave right at 3:30, his job is basically 24/7. If a computer or system crashes, he can't leave. Things go wrong all the time in that field...plus, he's running a hotel/casino. I constantly have to hear/watch him bitch on the phone to people on different shifts than him, or logging in from our home to fix the problem. I've went with him many times when he has emergency calls, just so we can spend time together. This shit is not fun. I don't know, this person just really pissed me the fuck off. Everytime I say something, she has something negative to say. I kind of expect more from someone who I constantIy have to comfort and help out when they put themselves in the most fucked up situations. I think that a husband making up time with their wife because they were stuck in the office is pretty damn great. Maybe I'm the one that lives in a fantasy world.  

I added the music player to my page, but I never listened to it before hand (smart! I didn't want to wake up Sergio). I heard it for the first time a minute ago, and it's like Mariah kareoke..EW!

My favorite thing for my favorite husband.
