I was laying in bed watching the baseball game last night while hubby was working on his laptop.... Then I thought to my self... why am I even watching this game?!?! My hometeam is not in it (Cardinals) and my second favorite team is not in it (Astros) and my third fav team is not playing tonite (Cubs) But there I was rooting for the Sox... Why I do not know... I do not know anything about the Sox, I know a little about the Yankees but there I was rooting for the Sox....How weird is that? Guess I want the underdog to win :o) How strange would it be to have the Sox and Cubbies in the World Series?? I never thought that the Cubbies would even make it, I thought for sure they were going to screw it up, like they always do and it would be the Astros or Cards in there... but noooo, Cubbies did not screw up and here they are 1 and 1 with the Marlins... I really hope that the Cubs go all the way!! I think that would be great! Especially since they have not been there since 1909. (If I remember that correctly) I have no idea about the Yankees or Sox... but I am rooting for the Sox :o) Ok enough about sports :o)

In other News... there is a Grocery Strike going on around here... I am personally ticked off about it. I have never belonged to a union and they all seem like they are a great big pain in the ass!! Because they cannot agree to the contracts they striked at the local Shop n Saves and the other 2 stores locked their employees out. Since this has happened the stores are only open from 10-7 and the bakeries are closed, the seafood and meat counters are closed and you are limited to what time you shop. This royally pisses me off! I do not care about their stupid strike, I do not care that they are not getting the pay raise they want (they should be happy that they HAVE a job) I am ticked that it is a total inconvience to the consumers. Oh, and on top of it the Union leaders do not want you to go to Wal-Mart to buy your grocerys.... ok, so you strike the grocery stores in town and want us to go to the really expensive mom and pop places and do not want us to go to wal-mart where they do not charge an arm and a leg??? Union ppl... you can KISS MY ASS!!! You made the situation... do NOT tell me where I should and should not go!! I will go wherever I can get my dang groceries so that I can feed my family, I WILL cross a picket line if I have to, my FAMILY comes first and I do NOT give a shit about your stupid strike!!! This is the 3rd day of the strike... which means the 3rd day that the grocery workers are not getting paid... is it worth it ppl???? This strike could go on for weeks!! Was it worth it for the raise that you wanted?? GRRRRRR ok I am done with that now :o)

Here is an interesting story for you.... It is a Haunted House that is not permitting anyone younger than 17 into it... for their sexually explicit material... One scene shows two women touching each other's arms and legs and then kissing on the shoulders and neck. The scene ends with the simulated cutting of a man's genitals. Yeah... hmmm.. NOT something that I would go to. WHY would you want to go there?? Haunted Houses ares supposed to be fun, I never would have imagined one with sexually explicit material... people and their warped minds!!



Tonight I go out to dinner with my best friend and other girlfriend and then scrapbooking WHOO HOOO :o) Tomorrow night hubby and I are going out (WITHOUT kids) with one of my girlfriends, Sunday we are having a birthday party for my baby girl and Monday we are taking her to Applebees for dinner. The kid has a major obsession with the place. We have been there ONCE and now every time she sees the place she wants to go, we drive by one and she screams out APPLEBEES and then starts demanding that we go there RIGHT NOW. It does not matter if we just finished eating... she wants to go there. So that is where she is going for her birthday dinner... my kids are so strange :o) Most 3 yr olds would choose McD's but nooo my kid wants Applebees and my oldest son... you would think that he would have picked something like ChuckE Cheeses or something fun... he chose Cracker Barrell and my other daughter wanted to stay home and have me make dinner, which was fine with me, I do not mind doing that, we had fun with it. Oh, well... the strange behaviors of my children :o) I hope that the rest of you have a great Weekend!! :o)
