Random Rant
So I’m sitting here at my desk,
minding my own business trying to look productive
when I hear a horrendous sound coming from the hallway near my door.
It's a child.
Not your typical loud crying child,
but rather a possessed, blood curdling, screaming child!
I open the door and glance in the parent’s direction as to look like I’m asking
“If everything is alright”
when really I’m looking in their direction to say
“Really asshole!? You can’t hear that?”
And they are just sitting there ignoring the spawn of Satan like he’s not even making a sound.
WTF? …I hate people like that.
Not everyone can tune out your kid the way you can people.
Not everyone thinks it’s funny or cute.
Not everyone will tolerate it without wanting to choke or punch your child!
Normally I will call you out in public because I’m a jerk like that
and I will tell you to tend to your child or even use my mom’s favorite
“watch your kid before someone walks off with them!”
But I couldn’t do that at work. *insert sad face here* Instead I just had to politely smile, nod, return to my desk and wish chicken pox on the entire family.
Kidding! … Just on the parents.

Sunday, Drunk Day!
Today I had to go to work for what I thought was going to be a few hours, I had this project I needed to finish. I was supposed to go in the day after Christmas but I was too busy sleeping, watching TV and eating so I lost track of time. Who wants to go to work the day after Christmas? Honestly!
When I left for work this afternoon Hubby was sitting where he usually sits on Sunday afternoons... in front of his laptop checking his fantasy football stuff, and multi-tasking playing a game on his PSP, while watching one game on our 42 inch plasma TV in our bedroom and watching another game on his 27 inch LCD "video game TV" which is also in our bedroom so he can play his PS3 or watch two games at once.
Yes, two TV's in our bedroom with a laptop and a PSP
forever attached to his hand! Anyway, I leave around 2:30pm,
I get to work and just start getting shit done!
Side Note: I don't know if I've mentioned that Special Girl Chris also works with me? Well she does and she just so happened to be working tonight.
So as I was saying, I'm getting my work done, I'm on a roll! Then Special Girl Chris shows up and distracts me for a few minutes, she's talking away. I'm trying to listen to her yet finish my work at the same time when I go to hit the "details" button and check my work, when really I hit the "delete" button and now everything is gone.
I wanted to cry, scream and punch her all at the same time.
Needless to say this set me back quite a bit.
I take a break and call Hubby, I let him know what happened and it's going to take longer than I planned. He sounds a bit distracted but I figured he was watching TV or on the computer...
Hubby: I'm hungry, what's for Dinner?
Bon Don: Tell one of the girls to make something for dinner,
since I'm stuck for a bit longer.
Hubby: Ok, but I'm hungry
Bon Don: Do you want me to pick something up on the way home then?
Hubby: Oooo yeah, but what?
Bon Don: Well what do you want? Jack's?
Hubby: Nah, it's ok... I'll get something here.
Bon Don: Ok sounds good.
Hubby: I'm hungry...
Bon Don: Are you drinking??
Hubby: *laughs* Can you tell? I'm feeling pretty good!
WHAT!?? It's my Saturday and I felt like having some beer!
Bon Don: *laughing* OK... well have fun! I'll see you in a bit.
Hubby: K! ... I'm hungry
Bon Don: BYE Babe.
I finally finish up, and head on home. I pull up to my house when I see Hubby standing outside on the porch, listening to blaring music on his cell phone smoking a cigarette. Hubby doesn't smoke, but when Hubby is drunk... Hubby smokes.
I walk up and I'm greeted by a big smile,
a swerving stance and blood shot eyes...
Yup he's drunk.

End Scene
Who am I kidding, it was my idea to do all the eating!
This year we ditched both our family's. Usually we try and squeeze in my family on Christmas Eve and then we make our rounds on Christmas day to his family but not this year. We both worked on Christmas Eve so we used that as an excuse to stay home and not drive. We took the girls out to dinner, picked up some sweets on the way home and then we forced the girls to watch TV with us for the rest of the night.
Christmas day we opened gifts and munched on yummy food all day long.
This year we tricked our girls, we bought them all these random gifts from the .99 cents store and made them believe those were there gifts! HA!
I know, we're mean parents.
Finally when all hope was lost, we brought out one more bag with these little plastic wallets that had good old fashion CASH in it... they were very happy! Later Mz. Tapz came over with her tribe which is half of my God-Children, we watched movies and ate... again.
Last night when my BFF Himbo came back from The Tundra we all went shopping because the girls wanted to spend money, after shopping we came back here and had a nice bottle of wine, cheese & crackers and other yummy snacks. Apparently I was a boring date because Himbo fell asleep the entire time he was here, we had to start the movie over twice! Himbo went home and then Special Girl Chris came over at 11pm and we snuck out to see The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, when we left the theater it was 240AM! Who goes to the movies that late!?
Honestly Chris!
Anyway, that was my fabulous Christmas story,
I'm so ready for New Years. Bring on the Champagne!

My Kind of Running Around
I had to pick her up from LAX...
I hate LAX.
It's SOoo not like Orange County Airport.
See at least here in Orange County they offer you valet service, and if you are picking someone up and want to wait in arrivals they practically offer you a Starbucks Mocha to make sure you're comfortable!
Not LAX I got yelled at by the angry cops on bikes! Ugly pedestrians that had the nerve to just walk into traffic and hold up a hand commanding you to stop for their impatient asses.
Not luxurious at all!
Anyway, I haven't seen her in a minute so I was willing to put up with L.A. for the day, but I can't help but have this sneaky feeling she didn't just fly in to "see me"... why you ask?
I'll tell you why, exactly 17 days prior she commented on the blog that she was craving a cupcake that looked exactly like my cupcake picture on my page. Well she searched all over Cabo for one but according to her the entire town does not believe in frosting.
"All of a sudden" the broad shows up "to visit" umm humm... sounds suspicious to me!
She tried to butter me up by taking me out to dinner (which by the way ALWAYS works) than BAM!
she said, "We need to find me a cupcake, but it has to be the right kind of frosting" of course Sprinkles was closed already and Albertsons was just not going to cut it with "whipped frosting" so we ended up going to Downtown Disney for some yummy cupcakes.
She didn't make it out the store before tearing into one.
...It was the right kind of frosting!

That's Why She's Dingy!
it went a little something like this...
*ring ring*
BD: Good Afternoon, this is Bon Don...
Jo: Hi mom just wanted to tell you that I had to take Dingy a bath. (Dingy is our other Chihuahua)
BD: Ok, make sure you blow dry her really good, because it's kind of cold outside
Jo: I will... Oh and I'm cleaning the floor in the living room.
BD: ... Ookayy??
Jo: You want to know why I took Dingy a bath and why I'm cleaning the floor?
BD: What happen?
Jo: Dingy spilled over a can of paint in the back yard, sniffed it, stepped in it and ran into the house with white paws...ran around the living room and jumped on the sofa.
BD: Are you serious!??
Jo: Yup! she had white paint on her nose that was hard to get off, now I'm working on the floor...
Booo Dingy!
*UPDATE*
The paint came off of everything including little miss Picasso "Dingy"

Game Night
Just kidding it's my Hubby! (Fooled you huh!)
He's trying to ignore me while I sing EVERY song on the radio.
We stopped here before the game to load up on
nutritious drinks before the game...
What!?... There were PLENTY of lemons in my Coronas,
Therefore I fulfilled my daily fruit intake!
We met the nicest people in the parking lot,
they helped us prepare for the game by offering
delicious refreshments from a very sophisticated drinking vessel!
This was our awesome view of the field,
I could almost smell the uniform pants blend
of polyester-spandex from my seat I tell ya!
This is a picture Hubby took...
I'm sure these guys were trying to get a good shot of
the "field goal posts" just like my Hubby
but those pesky cheerleaders keep getting in the way!
Had to throw in this one of Dula Dip & Bon Don at the end of the night...
We were tired... not drunk! *wink wink* So don't let the red eyes and wiped off make-up fool ya. *giggle*
End Scene.

Decaf Kind of Girl!
The other day my girls wanted to ditch me for a school football game, so I dropped them off at the game picked up my Momma and headed over to Himbos house. Yes my Mom.
My Mom loves to hang out at Himbos for the following reasons:
1. Because he got her hooked on watching Six Feet Under
2. We always pick up a pie from Marie Calendar's on the way over, and she's not allowed to eat junk food or too much sugar but I make an exception when we are at Himbos so needless to say a pie makes her little heart sing!
3. Most importantly because she's not allowed to have coffee hardly ever, so it's a treat for her to have it in the first place...Well Himbo makes a pot of his gourmet coffee AND loads it up with flavored creamer for her!
4. Oh yeah...and according to the both of them "How can you not want to hangout with The Luxurious Prince Himbo?"
So we hung out, had a blast... killed the entire pie and they both drank about two pots of coffee! I say "they" because I am a decaf only kind of girl. I can't have coffee because I will not shut the fuck up! I will talk and talk and TALK, my little heart races, I start feeling light headed, I develop a headache then I crash...HARD! Yup that's my relationship with those magic little beans... Well that night the coffee smelled sooo yummy and I seemed to have drank all the fruit punch Himbo keeps on hand for me so I poured myself a cup.
Aww man it was DELICIOUS! I drank the entire cup.
I got back home around 1:30am-ish and started talking to my Hubby about my entire day... and talking... and talking. He had this look on his face like, "Really? ... you have this much to talk about right now?"
Then I realized I sounded just like this:
So I simply said "Oh, I had coffee at Himbos..."
Hubby then nodded and smiled, now understanding why his wife was acting like a spun-out crack head.
I had to forced myself to fall asleep by counting the endless number of heart palpitation's per minute!
Thanks Himbo.

Drunk Lady: Mother Fucker!!!... the other mother fucker told me it was this way!! Which one of you mother fuckers is lying to me?!!

Drunk Lady: Whatchu mean mother fucker it's not like I'm not going to pay for the mother fucker! let me off this mother fucken bus! (now she's trying to open the door)
Hubby: You have to wait for the next bus stop.
Hubby: (Hubby pulls up to the next stop and says) Here you go...remember next time before you come out and play, you need to know where you're going and where you're at.
Drunk Lady: Fuck you you fat mother fucker!
Hubby: Ok you "Ugly Mother Fucker"!

Real Quick
So I started calling him a Bimbo and eventually it just turned into Himbo. It's funny because the guy is pretty smart, he's a number cruncher for crying out loud! But when it comes to the little things, well... he's a Himbo.
Here's an example of his "Himbo-ness"...remember the picture below (in my last post) the one with Himbo taking a picture with the pretty sky and my car in the background? Well last night I was over at his house watching TV, when he jumped online and started checking our blogs.
Conversation was as follows:
Himbo: I'm going on your blog right now,
I wanna see the pictures again *sits in front of his computer*
Bon Don: K... *sits up and turns towards Himbo*
Himbo: The sky looked so nice, what a pretty color! *admiring the picture*
Bon Don: Yeah, it came out nice...too bad my car was in the shot
Himbo: *starring and concentrating at the screen* wait...
Bon Don: What? What are you looking at?
Himbo: I'm just trying to see if I can see you in the car! *still concentrating on the screen*
Bon Don: *Laughing* HAHAHA No ass I wasn't in the car... I took the fricken' picture remember?!
Himbo: Oh Yeah! *falls off chair laughing*
...Really Himbo?

Gotta Love Those Random Drug Tests
Hubby arrives at the clinic and only see’s the janitor cleaning the lobby, the janitor tells Hubby that the little nurse man is probably out back smoking a cigarette and he’ll go and get him. Hubby’s not really in a hurry at this point but thanks the janitor and off he goes.
Hubby had just taken a break about 15 minutes before he was notified to take his drug test so he doesn’t really have to go at this point, but he tried anyway and got close enough to the “line” he was supposed to reach.
He spilled out both vials and hands Hubby a new cup and says
Hubby's starting to get a little upset with little nurse man
Now Hubby has to drink his weight in water and sit there for about an hour, when finally he's ready to go. He tells little nurse man he needs a cup and little nurse mans says,
Really little nurse man? You dare challenge Bon Don's Hubby!
Little nurse man finally gives Hubby the cup and tells him
Now what does Hubby do?
Well being awesome and vengeful like his dear wife (me)
his pisses in the cup (to the line)
all over his hand to the point where there is piss everywhere...
Yup that's my man!

Adventures In Voting...
*Disclaimer Side Note: Yes, I have been known to a little opinionated in public, NOT all the time! I'm not one of those obnoxious people, but when it's called for I don't hold back. And YES for the record I will admit I was a little annoyed to begin with because I was a tad-bit hungry. My bad.
Yesterday I left work a little early to hit the voting polls, I finally get to where I thought was my voting place and stood in line with every walk of life in Orange County, when all of a sudden this 400lb trashy looking loud mouth, power hungry heifer started yelling at all of the volunteers for calling people next in line, she actually said "NO!! Don't you call these people in again, I already told you I'll bring them in...you're gonna screw it all up again!!"
*Another Side Note: I have a hard time controlling my facial expressions (I've been told) and sometimes I have to really try and keep them under control.
Meanwhile there is the world's stupidest conversation
going on in line right in front of me!
Like I said before, there was like every walk of life in line right.
Well in front of me there's this little blond petite girl, in front of her there is this other normal looking mexican chick and some guy talking to the this young girl to my left, I'll say about 19 or 20 she looks kind of normal, tight pants with wedge shoes tank top and hair in one of those faux hawk bumps...trashy but "normal" that is until the idiot speaks!
I'm not sure of how familiar everyone is with the "spanglish accent" we have going on our here in Cali sometimes but it's horrible and that's one of my BIGGEST pet peeves!
Almost like Rosie Perez with a Mexican twist.
ANYWAY, so this girl (we'll call her Rosie Perez)
starts talking to this guy in my line
(I guess they went to school together or something)
and in her Spanglish accent Rosie Perez says,
"YeAAhh I hate school it's stooopid, I'm gonna just drop out and work two jobs or somethin' cause I just don't like it" The guy says something back to her, I didn't really pay attention because I was too busy giggling out loud AT her.
Well now big heifer comes back to tell people to make two lines according to last names A through L in one line and the rest in my line, the guy stays in my line and Rosie Perez asks "What's your last name howcome your over there?"
and the guys says something like "Williamson"
and Rosie Perez said "Eew like a white boy, you have a white boy last name!"
again I'm giggling out loud and by this time I'm sure my face looked like "you're kidding right" I was kind of embarrassed for her, there was about 30people in line.
So now Rosie Perez is getting antsy and says "Ugh this is taking long"
and young Mr. Williamson says "Who are you voting for?"
Rosie Perez says "I don't even know, I don't even know why I'm voting"
then of course i couldn't take it anymore and I said
Rosie Perez turned around and said "Are you talking to me?"
I said "YES! You're a Fucken Idiot!"
She turn around and mumbled "whatever"
So I said, "You don't even know why you're even voting?!
You shouldn't even be here,
I know a bit harsh but she deserved it. right?
