Listening to: Erykah Badu "Love of My Life" <---this is a good song
Madonna "Die Another Day"

I received an email today from a friend and I thought this was so hilarious because I can relate to it since I'm always at Wal-mart in the wee hours of the morning.



14 THINGS TO DO AT WAL-MART...


1. Get 24 boxes of condoms & randomly put them in people's carts when they aren't looking.

2. Set all the alarm clocks in house wares to go off at 5 minute intervals.

3. Make a trail of tomato juice on the floor to the rest rooms.

4. Walk up to an employee and tell him/her in an official voice "code 3 in the warehouse".

5. Go to the Service Desk and ask to put a bag of M&M's on lay away.

6. Move a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.

7. Set up a tent in the camping department and tell other shoppers you'll only invite them in if they bring pillows from the bedding department.

8. When a clerk asks if they can help you, begin to cry and ask 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?

9. While handling guns in the hunting department ask the clerk if he knows where the anti-depressants are.

10. Dart around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the theme from 'Mission Impossible'.

11. In the auto department practice your Madonna look using different size funnels.

12. Hide in the clothing rack and when people browse through say 'PICK ME! PICK ME!!!!!!'

13. When an announcement comes over the loud speaker assume the fetal position and scream "NO! NO! It's those voices again!"

and last but not least,

14. Go into a fitting room and yell real loudly, 'Hey! We're out of toilet paper in here!'

Oh what to do.....

I don't know what to do. I have a chance to work as a volunteer at a clinic in the OBGYN department. The catch is that I have to quit my current job and work as a volunteer with no pay. I want to at least have experience by the time I graduate, but I think it might be too soon to be doing volunteer work. I was thinking I would do volunteer work towards the end of school. I really don't know what to do and cannot make up my mind.......phewie!!!!!

listening to: Faith Evans

Damn, it's so quiet here at work tonight. I bet you can hear a pin drop. I should have company here in a bit. The janitor man usually comes in around this time. He is my company for while, although he does not speak one word of english. I could fall asleep here if I wanted to. I think I will try that one of these nights. I have a collection of rubber bands here for my amusement and I keep a big, fat, bat by my side just in case somebody tries to jump me. I will use it too. After every one leaves I pull it out from under my desk and keep it by my side. This office is huge and there are plenty of hiding places for weirdos, rapists, and psychos.

Today my cat coughed up a huge hairball. At first I thought she was choking. The thought of CPR came to my mind. Heh. I love my kitty. She is my baby. She always sleeps at the foot of the bed, on my legs, or by my feet. She follows me every where I go. I try and go to the restroom she follows me in there. She has a weird habit. She likes to watch the water flush down the toilet. So sometimes I stand there by the toilet flushing the water for her. It's quite amusing actually. It's like she sits there with a big smile on her face. When you look at her right in the face and start talking she looks right back you and meows. I know she understands me....anyway I think it is back to work for me. I've been sitting here well over an hour. Nite nite.

Tuesday, October 22, 2002

It is freaking cold in here. I can't type because my fingers are sticking to the keys. I can't believe it is already Tuesday. I hope the rest of the week flies by this fast. I thought today was Monday. Lately, I have been lost. I don't know what day it is any more. I have to always flip out my planner to make sure I haven't missed any bills or appointments. Usually, I will remember all this stuff, but I guess my brain just can't take all the information I've been receiving lately. Duh.

I finally watched that movie, "Enough". We were testing out the new receiver that we bought over the weekend. That thing is freaking loud. I think I will be deaf by the time I turn 30. Anyway, that movie pisses me off. It just makes you wonder how many woman have to go through that bull shit or how may woman let themselves go through it.

Brian's brother and his family are coming down this weekend for the fair. Oh gosh, I hate having a full house. The last time we had a full house the rug became black from every one walking around with their shoes on. Not this time, I'm going to have every one take their shoes off by the door. We had to get the rug professionally cleaned and I don't want to do that again. I think it would be cool that they would be out here for a visit because there is hardly ever a time we get visitors. Every one seems to have their own lives now a days. I think I will really enjoy this weekend.

Monday, October 21, 2002

Of course....I'm here at work. This is the only time I get to sit in front of a computer. I hardly have time to sit down at my computer at home. I didn't do much over the weekend. I did visit wally world again on Saturday around 2am. I hate that place and some body needs to post my picture on the wall there so they can ban me from that place. I spent so much money. I feel so guilty. My plan this year is to shop for christmas gifts early. I just hope I have the time to visit my family around christmas time or I might have to ship every thing off. I really hope that does not end up happening because christmas is a time to spend time with friends and family.

My boss is here today. That bastard. He visits the office like every month. It is so annoying when he is here. You can hear his sickening laugh in the distance. It makes me want to barf. He walks around here like he's top dog. Woof! Woof! When he is around I take more breaks than I normally do. I do it to make a point. You see, we are not considered employees here sooooooo I act like i'm the shit. That was his decision. He had a choice to make us employees or independent contractors. He chose independent contractors. He did it because it will benefit the company. Shit! I don't give a shit. If he wants his employees to respect him then he should do it in return. I don't kiss his honky, Texan ass any more. Not this missy, never again.

On Friday when I got home from school Brian was sitting on the couch with a little, gold box in his hand. I sat next to him and he gave me the box. I opened it and it was a necklace with a heart-shaped locket. It was beautiful! He had a picture of both of us placed in there. I cried. I cried because I was happy. I cried because in mind I was thanking god for bringing Brian into my life.

Friday, October 18, 2002

Today is Friday. I have to work today. I didn't go to work yesterday because I wanted to study for my test today. I got an A+. Woo hoo. I think I might have to do that every Thursday. I have to study for my tests on Thursday nights because we have tests on Fridays. I am still tired. I don't think I get enough rest or maybe it just might be that I am really stressed out over work. I know I'm doing great at school, but work is stressing me out. I can't make my decision on whether I should work or not. Brian is practically begging for me to stay at home so I can focus a lot more on my studies. I am very stubborn. There are reasons that I want to work. One reason is that we will have so much money coming in so we can finally save, so money issues will never be our problem. Another reason is that since Brian's work schedule changed, I would not be seeing him during the time I stay home. It kinda' sucks, but I guess I have to get used to that too.

In school we are doing Patient Billing. We are using the Medisoft program. I think it is pretty self explanatory on how to work the program. The work book helps you along and I'm having no problems so far. I think I actually like this class and I don't mind doing this outside of the class room. I also finished all my exercise questions in the work book so I'm am ahead. I like to stay ahead just in case something drastic happens at work and I don't have time to do any of my homework. I think I get paranoid because I feel like I might get behind so I feel like I always have to stay ahead of every thing. Well, I have about 2 more hours here at school and then I have work around 2pm.

Wednesday, October 16, 2002

I am sooooooo tired today. I just can't imagine staying here at work for another hour, but i want to get a decent check this pay day. I want to work, but my brain is telling me to go lay down and sleep. I have to get used to these hours again. My month has been one big roller coaster. I feel bad because I sort of yelled at Brian today. I took out my frustration on him. I did apologize to him afterwards. I'm beginning to snap at every little thing now. Today at school I was watching this girl playing with her gum. She was twisting it around her fingers, blowing bubbles, and then popping it. It was sooo annoying and I just felt like telling her to be quiet and keep her damn gum in her mouth. I'm serious! I actually felt like saying that to her, but I didn't. I'm glad I didn't because I think she probably would have kicked my ass anyway. Usually I don't let things like that get to me, but since I've been in such of a whirl wind schedule I just don't have the tolerance any more.

I got this email a while ago and it actually put a smile on my face:)

This is my oath
I pledge till the end. Why you may ask?
Because you are my friend.

What a dumbass! I got myself locked out of the office today. Hahaha. I had to get the security for the building to come and open the door for me. I was so pissed. There is supposed to be sales people that stay here until 6pm, but I guess they left early, locked the door, and left my butt outside. I forgive them this time, only because they gave us girls a little treat. They brought like this 7 layer dip and chip thing. It was delicious.

Today, I found out that Brian has to work 2nd shift now. At first I was pissed, but the more I thought about it the more it made sense. I don't have to drive back and forth during rush hour any more. Brian works from 2pm-11pm now. He also got another raise. I'm so proud ! I can now wake up at 6:30 or 7:00am (instead of 3:30am) to get ready for school. Brian can sleep in for all I care. He'll probably have more time to play his Playstation 2 now. Oh by the way, i'm really into that game, Tekken 4. I can kick Brian's ass battling him. Anyway, since the change of hours for Brian, I will now have to work from 2pm -11pm too (I'm considered an independent contractor so my hours can be flexible).

I'm here at work. I hear a lot of banging on the roof above me. I hear it almost every night. I wonder what the hell is going on up there every night. Maybe it's the boogie man. YYYYEEEE!!!! I might see something lurking in the shadows! I'm the only one here in the office too! It gets pretty lonely here. I miss working with the other girls.

Monday, October 14, 2002

Whoa! It's been a long weekend and I know it is going to be the start of a very long week day also. I just got this email message from my boss. He didn't even consider the fact that my days are very long. I let him know it too.


Bill,

I'm letting you know that I cannot give you more than 8 hrs during the week days because it will interfere with my hours at school. I am willing to work on Saturdays/Sundays.

Greetings All:

I need you all to put in extra hours over the next week to meet the deadline for the Omnidox unitization project.
There are approximately 170,000 pages and the due date is Monday, October 21st. Let me know if you all can get this done. If not, I will have to send some out to some other unitizers which I would prefer not to do because you all do such good work and I know you need the hours.
Please contact me ASAP.

Thanks-Bill

Is this information correct? You usually average much more than this
per hour.--Everyone else is averaging 500+.

I didn't know you were going to school.---Congratulations and Good
Luck!

This is after I told him that I go to school and work and then he has the nerve to ask me if I could work at home too. Is he freaking nuts? I think he thinks we are robots. This is what I have to go through here at work.

Anyway, my weekend was was alright. We visited Wally world on Saturday. I hate going there because I always come out with a big cart of shit that I just don't need. We probably spent like 3-4 hrs in Walmart. I had to get some pillows to match our floor rug and a whole bed-in-bag kind of deal to match our bedroom. Oh garsh, some one needs to ban me from that place. On Sunday, we went to our usual Grey hound park venture. There wasn't any thing that fancied us so we left with our big pot of menudo and we headed home. I made some dough before we left and I made some fry bread with the menudo. It was a good weekend......

Friday, October 11, 2002

Today is my daddy's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY DADDY! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY DADDY! HAPPPPY BIIIIRTTTHHHDAY TOOOOO MYYYY DADDDDDY! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY DADDY!!!! He turned 50 years old today. Wow! Don't the years go by so fast. I feel weird though because I am not going to spend his birthday with him. My sister is going to see him today. That should make up for me not being there. I called him early this morning to wish him a happy birthday. I love my daddy so much. My dad raised me, so in a way he is my mommy and my daddy.

So people wanna know a little more about me, huh? Well, I will try and give a little summary of my life....

So it begins......

My dad was in the Army and he was stationed in Korea. There he met my mother. They mingled, dated, fell in love, and got married. Once, my dad and mom got married they moved to Killeen, Texas. They lived there for about 7 years and then I popped out. For the first 5 years of my life I lived in Texas. Then a tragic turn of events happens, my mom and dad get a divorce and I was forced to move to the reservation. Those were some sad times. I still remember them too. Sometimes it's hard to even think about it, because to this day I still do not know why my mom and dad divorced. I don't dare ask my dad because I know deep down he still loves my mom because he told me so one day, just out of the blue. Anyway, so because of the divorce I moved to the reservation. I have lived in Fort Defiance, AZ, Gallup, NM, Kayenta, AZ, and St. Michaels, AZ, but most of my life was spent in Ft, Defiance. My dad lives there now and that is where I go back to when I want to go home. I have not seen my mother in 14 years. I miss her and love her, but I know that if i visited her, that it will not be the same.

And so it ends.....

That is a little summary of how I got to the reservation. I lived there for most of my life and enjoy it very much so. I love mutton and kim chee combined. I love eating mutton, cooked outside, green chili, and homemade tortillas cooked on the grill and for kim chee I love to eat it with plain ole' white rice. I love both worlds. I am me, that is who I'll always be.........

Thursday, October 10, 2002

Well......I finished my all my tests, final tests, exercises out of the workbook, and dictations for transcription. Sheez, it's going by so fast. Today, for some reason I feel so drained of energy. I don't think my body and my brain is used to all this information over load from school and work. Blah! I shouldn't be complaining though, because this is what I wanted. I have to keep reminding my self that this is what I want and that will bring some more motivation for me. Come on guys cheer me on....

Why is it that you take your car in to get it worked on and you pay outrageous amounts of money to fix it and then something drastic goes wrong with the car again and then you have to shell out more money?!!?? I hate having a vehicle because there are so many financial responsiblities for having it. 1. You have to have insurance (so if you live in the city you pay more!) 2. Maintenance 3. Payments to keep the damn car and blah, blah, blah, BLLLLLLLAAHHH! Anyway, I needed to vent a bit. I feel better now. The reason i'm complaining is because I just got my brakes fixed in the front. They grinded the ummm..i don't know what it's called. I think it might be the rotor. They smoothed it out and replaced the brake pads. NOW, the back brakes are squeeking and it is so freaking annoying.

Next week I start Patient Billing. The book looks pretty thick so I know I have to do a lot of reading. I hope it's not too boring because if it is, it will go in one ear and then out the other

Tuesday, October 08, 2002

This morning I was in a comatose state of sleep when I was suddenly jolted awake by my kitty's sand paper tongue licking my face. She tends to do that every morning. I think she is telling me I need to take a shower. She likes to place her butt down on the pillow next to me in a sitting position. She probably thinks she is human. She has never been around any other cats. Brian And I are the only people she sees every day. I love my kitty sooo much....

Anyway, I am here at work. So far, I have only worked 2 days within this pay period. I don't know if I can handle these hours any more. It sure is tiring going back and forth from school, to work, picking up Brian, dropping off Brian, going back to work deal. I feel like quitting my job, but at the same time I don't want Brian to be handling all the financial responsibilities. I don't want to be a burden, but he tells me it is ok and to focus on school and that I don't even need to work. I don't know if I would quit my job. That is too drastic for me. I have been working since I don't know when.....like forever. Quitting work will be weird. I mean I know I get these long periods of 1 week or 2 weeks off, but not going back to work permanately? I don't think so. I think I just made up my mind right at this very moment. I will not quit my job. The only way I will leave my job is if the department goes down the drain and I get layed off. That's it. I will stay until that happens. I know it is going to happen sooner or later because we were a company with over 200 people working at home for us. These people were from places like India, Manila, and the United States, but since the depletion of work, we probably have like 20 all together. Ha ha. I think my boss deserves the blow he's getting. Four girls including me helped him start up this department. Once he got all the information he needed to know about how to do this and that he just buried us into the ground and treated us like shit. He hired his friends or families to take our roles. We were coding queens before he knew the operations of coding. Personally, I think it was the color of our skin that made him bring other people besides us to the top. I will never really know..... I just know that for the first 2 yrs with this company I busted my ass. I used to work 12-16 hrs a day. I did it because my boss asked me to. I did it because I thought I would get something grand in return, but he just used us.

Anyway...just me bitchin.......

Monday, October 07, 2002

I'm here at work. I hate coding off of court documents. They suck. Any way, I didn't get to visit Shiprock. Brian had to work. We still had a good time though. On Friday, Brian took me to Red Lobster. I had me the king crab legs. Man, that stuff is soooo good. I wish I had a plate in front of me right now. My day is just about over. I've been up since 4am. I should be getting off of work around 9:45pm.

Brian and I went to the fleamarket at Greyhound Park. We go there every Sunday to get some Menudo. Oh gosh they can make some killer menudo there. If ya'll don't know what menudo is then you don't know what you are missing. We also went to the Phoenix Zoo on Sunday. It was really nice and relaxing. The last time I went to the zoo was like 7 years ago. It has changed a lot since then. It seems as though there are less animals than before. For example, there was only 1 elephant, 1 tiger, 1 alligator, and the big, fat, ugly, snake was not there any more etc.

School is going pretty good. This week I have to test out of Transcription. My instructor assigned 8 tests. Wow, that is a load, but I think I should be finished transcribing and proofreading my work by Friday. A lot of people that I have class with are very behind. I feel so bad for them. Especially the lady that sits next to me. Her name is Bernadette. She is apache. I think she is around 37-40 yrs old. She is having a hard time. I think it is because she has been out of school for so long. Another thing that could be the prob is that she just found out that her 14 yr old daughter is pregnant and the guy doesn't want to be there for the baby. That is so sad. Why do guys do that? What runs through their minds? I know they are probably freaked out, but what makes a man just run off and not want his baby; his own blood? Bernadette says that she will be there for her daughter though. She will help take care of it and doesn't want the guy in the baby's life. She says that they could make it on their own. She seems to be a proud soon to be grandmother. I am so happy for her.

|friday five|


1. What size shoe do you wear?
9 - 9 1/2. Depends on what kind of shoes I wear.


2. How many pairs of shoes do you own?
haha...too many. I love shoes. I would probably estimate 40. includes sandals, flipflops, boots, sneakers etc.


3. What type of shoe do you prefer (boots, sneakers, pumps, etc.)?
SANDALS. I love them because they are comfortable and you can slip them on easlily. sneakers if i'm walking long distance.


4. Describe your favorite pair of shoes. Why are they your favorite?
My favorite pair of shoes will be my plain, black flip flops that I bought from target. They got little bite marks from my cat:)


5. What's the most you've spent on one pair of shoes?
$130 on a pair of nike running shoes that I thought were so awesome. I had to have them.

Today is a good day. I'm sitting here in class not doing a damn thing. I finished all my work a week early. Yay! I am such a nerd, a motivated one. The more I think about work, the more I want to excel in my studies. I just want to get away from my current job and start a new career. If only I can fast forward time and be done with school. It's been almost a month since I started school. So far I have three A's. I am such a good girl.

I think this weekend we are going to go back to the reservation. If I'm understanding correctly, we are going to go to the fair in Shiprock, but I still have to find out if our work came through FedEx today. Deep down I really hope that work doesn't call me in because I really want to go out of town this weekend. We haven't gone any where lately and this should be a fun weekend for both Brian and I. Food stands and squash hunting are my main reasons why I want to go to the fair. I want some steamed corn stew, kneel down bread, and of course you can't forget that fry bread.

Heh, I found out yesterday that the IRS still have not received my 1040 form. I was so pissed yesterday. I thought all this time H&R Block filed it electronically for me, come to find out they didn't. So I now have penalities and what not for not sending it in before April 15th. I filled out a form 9465 too, to make payments on what I owed to federal. I was sending in my payments and they were accepting each and every one of them. Couldn't they have at least notified me that they haven't received last year's tax forms? I guess it could be my fault too for assuming that H&R Block was going to send them in for me. I learned a very good lesson yesterday.

I thought this was funny because this happened to me a couple of times, but not in a restroom.

THE WASHROOM

Leaving Montreal, I decided to stop at one of those rest areas on the side
of the road. I go into the washroom. The first stall is taken, so I go into
the second stall. I had just sat down when I hear a voice from the other
stall............" Hi there, how is it going? " Okay, I am not the type to
strike up conversations with strangers in washrooms on the side of the road.
I didn't know what to say, so finally I say: -"Not bad............" Then the
voice says: "So, what are you doing?" I am starting to find this a bit
weird, but I say: - "Well, I'm going back east............... " Then I hear
the person, all flustered, say: " Look, I'll call you back-every time I ask
you a question this idiot in the next stall keeps answering me!!!"

Yay! Yesterday I got a call from work. We finally have work. Time to make some more of that money. I didn't do much yesterday or the day before. Lately, I have been staying 2 hrs after class to stay ahead on class work. So far, I have finished all of my dictations. We had to dictate 12 scripts. Now, I just have to do my work book for the remaining time. I have been eating out almost every day. I am getting really sick of fast food. I hate eating it, but when you are tired and hungry, you just want to get any thing that is to go. I haven't been up to cooking at home for a while. I think today I will cook though because I'm tired of Mcdonald's, Burger King, and Kyoto Bowl.
Damn, it is getting cold here. It is really cold in the morning and late at night. I actually have to turn off the air conditioner at night or else we'll freeze our asses. It started getting really cold about two mornings ago. We had to turn the heater on in the car. Man, that means I have to start wearing shoes all the time. I like to wear my flip flops or sandals. Well, I'm off to the shower. I need to get ready for school. I have to go back to my weird schedule again. 8-12am (school), 12:30pm-2:15pm (work), 2:15pm (clock out of work and get Brian), 3:30pm (clock back in at work and try and work my 8 hrs for the day).

Went to school today, same ole' thing. Transcription sucks! I definitely don't like it. We wear these earphones and listen to dictations from doctors. They talk too damn fast. You have to stop and rewind every 2 seconds. I don't understand why they throw us into transcription when we have not taken medical terminology. There are words like: hypercholesterolemia, dysrhythmia, thrombophlebitis etc. They want us to dicate words like that? It's very frustrating when you are trying to type as fast as you can and you don't even know how to spell the damn word.

Our neighbor downstairs got kicked out of her apartment. She was another weird one. She always walked around half naked. I think she was a prostitute or dancer at a strip club. At night you could hear her singing at the top of her lungs. Sometimes, she would get so loud we would have to stomp on the floor just to shut her up. I know a couple of times she got pissed off because she started slamming things around downstairs. I am so glad she left.

I'm listening to Stacey Q "Two of hearts"

I never said i wasn't gonna tell nobody
no baby
But desperate lover, I can't keep it to myself
oh no
When we're together it's like hot coals in a fire
oh baby
My body's burning so come on heat my desire
come on come on

Two of hearts
Two hearts that beat as one
Two of hearts
I need you, I need you
Two of hearts
Two hearts that beat as one
Two of hearts
come on, come on

People get jealous cuz we always stay together
yeah baby
I guess they really want a love like yours and mine
together forever
I never thought that I could ever be this happy
yeah baby
My prayers were answered, boy you came in the nick of time
ohhh

I got this feeling that you're going to stay
I never knew that it could happen this way
Before I met you I was falling apart
But now at last I really know we're made of

(chorus)

I never said I wasn't gonna tell nobody
no baby
But desperate lover, I can't keep it to myself
oh no
When we're together it's like hot coals in a fire
oh baby
My body's burning so come on heat my desire
ohhh

I got this feeling that you're going to stay
I never knew that it could happen this way
Before I met you I was falling apart
But now at last I really know we're made of

(chorus)
