Public toilets

we have all been there, in a stall, having to sit down on the toilet, a public toilet...duh duh ddduuunnnn!!! I for one have an issue with them, those lazy assholes who pee all over the seat itself, like hello, did your parents not potty train you properly? While i am in there wiping off your "aftermath" i am thinking boy would i like to wipe your nose in this, then i put a layer of paper on the rim to avoid full contact of whatever disease infested lurks on that seat, mind you it is only a thin layer, and its not very reassuring. They need to keep the toilet seat covers in the stalls.
Next things next, people who dont flush, like WTF is your issue?? sometimes its ok to do it at home, maybe depending on what you leave in the toilet, but to do it in a public facilty, i guess more good morals your parents taught you very well. When i see that i want to find the lazy ass that left this stink in there and make them bob for crapples. seriously, your disgusting and really make me question whether or not you have a fear of toilets from all the swirleys you probably got as a kid.
So the next time you are in a public toilet remember to check the seat first, as some jackass before may not be the healiest person in the world.

Cashout, over count

So I am with my baby in the supermarket, and as every superstore, i mean supermarket there is An express lane. Then I see something i see almost everytime i go there. There's always that person that waits in that line with far more than 12 items. And to make matters worse they play dumb to the situation, pppfftttt, as if they hadnt noticed there in this line with their overflowing cart. Another thing i notice is that, they tend not to make eye contact with the honest poor bastards that are in that line with their two items. Dont pretend you dont see us better folk,and dont think that by not looking at us your cart suddenly becomes invisible, we know your just impatient, and none of this my kids are waiting in the car bullshit,maybe the next time you go out in public during a busy time, take into consideration, YOU MAY HAVE TO WAIT YOUR TURN!!
Getting off topic, as usual, i would like to talk about a fashion trend that should have been gone a long time ago, but somehow made its eye blazing return, yes folks i am speaking of the jumpsuit, that one peice suit that should have stayed in the 70s/80's, and for some the 90's. GROSS!!! i know one thing is for sure, you would never in a million years catch me wanting to take off my shirt to go pee. your pretty much have to get naked whenever you use the shitter.worse yet, what happens if you drop your sleeve in the throne, theres a day you may regret....blllaaahhhhh. I encourage NO MORE JUMPSUITS, they are ugly, out of date, and sure as shit say nothing good about your taste in how you look.

Ponyfails to mullets to paper

Being on Maternity leave I have noticed different things about random people that i see on the street or wherever I happen to be. The other day Emma Shawn and I went out for some christmas gifts when i noticed something about an older gentleman that I never took into consideration till then. I noticed his ponytail, I really do now have a new pet peeve, its old whirey "ponyfails". Seeing that ponyfail made me want to pull out some scissors and cut off whatever that was on the end of it, which takes a lot of self control. Looking like a Jute rope and having more split ends than courtney love's hair in the winter, I just dont understand the look, nor do I get the point. Obviously they dont care about their hair, but it is just not pleasing to look at, Majority of the time it seems like its a sad attempt to cover a bald spot, which aint fooling anyone, so please chop that napeworm off. A mullet, now theres a look (just kidding) To me a mullet says "i mean business" in the front, and the back says "lets party" honestly mullets arnt that much better, but at least its got some personality too it.
Another thing I noticed is something little like PAPER, you know the prehistoric version of the PC. I swear Paper is out for revenge of the evil that is technology, they are bitter and are lurking, waiting to cut you up. I recieved a friendly reminder from my cookbook while baking the many recipes of christmas, going on my merry way, i turned the page and BAM....slice. My index finger never saw it coming. I am just fearing now that the brown paper bags in my house are going to go for my jugular one day. you ever see Matt Damon in one of them bourne movies doin some damage with that magazine, well it is a sneaky pulp affliction which can never be taken too seriously. I think we need to treat paper with more respect these days, or at least give it some attention to lose the bitterness for which it holds.

Family life

The title I have posted is pretty straight forward as to what I am about to speak of. First of all, alot of family life/married life is about comprimise. Shawn and I have a very differnt opinion of a lot of things, actually, about 90% of things we talk about, we are both thick headed, stubborn and VERY opinionated. Yet we manage to still be able to say "i love you" even though we dont agree on everything and we "argue" about EVERYTHING, literally EVERYTHING. We have a feeling of happiness that neither of us have felt before. and I have never been/felt happier in my entire life. We are planning on a fairly big wedding, i use the term big loosely, as we are arguing about wether or not to elope to a white sandy beach type of wedding.
We have a surpisingly decent amount of time together, even though he is working two jobs, and We have our 4 month old baby girl. during the day he works, he comes home at night, and usually spends time with us, Emma goes to bed then its just him and I. For a relationship that has a lot of strain and demand, I hope it never changes for the worst, and i am sure shawn feels the same, as we both want the same thing in our furture together. The one thing we do agree on, working hard at a great relationship,and hoping to blossom from where we are now.
Now, parent life, the best kind of life for me anyways. I love being a mom, and I know Shawn is the perfect father. Emma is even more than what we thought she would be, not to mention so much cuter, and continuing to impress us everyday, even more. parental life is a new level of stress, worth it all though. Its a great feeling knowing that you are the one to do everything in your power to keep your baby safe. Obviously as a first time mom I worry more than i should, but thats better than underworrying as far as I am concerned. After having Emma I now feel like for once in my life I have found my "true calling" I love the way things are, and really the only thing I would change is to own a house instead of rent. I feel that is pretty damn close to the perfect life.
We have a very strong life together, and I know this was meant to be, i believe that everything happens for a reason, even if you cant see the light right at that moment, you will see it eventually.

RIP Micheal J and Farrah Fawcett

Yes I just said the same thing you have been hearing for the past week. I believe that when a person passes on celebrity or not, depending on how they lived their life, that they do deserve respect for the life that they lived and are just as entiteld to have a celebration of what they stood for. Farrah and Micheal where both pop culture icons in their own time, without the use of the internet and so much other media that todays youth have access to become famous from, they rose to the top on their own. Both in two different objectives. Farrah being the jem she was and great actress, there was a point when she was the symbol of "sex appeal". And still stood strong by her spirit till the day of her passing. RIP Farrah.
Then there was Micheal. One thing that makes me angry is that now that he has passed people now love him, what happened to the WiLD allegations?? Which as far as i am concerned was a bad name for him, and most defently not true!! It was a way for these accusing families to make some money. Yes he was a strange man with a creepy house known as "neverland ranch" but really he was just trying to buy his childhood back. I know that has a parent if someone, famous or not would even so much as attempt to do that to my baby, no pay off could make me look the other way.However i do believe that he could have been a "Different" type of parent, and really dangling your child over a balcony should a been a long ass visit from social services. Micheal really did die a long time ago, just physically last week. He was a great entertainer, he started an era, he showed us moves that probably still wouldnt exist to this day if he hadnt started them. So RIP, i hope you got your childhood back micheal. knowbody will ever be able to grab their groin like you did.

"Hail" to all storms

Since a gal like myself has no job at the moment and is at home ALL the time raising my baby, i get easily amused, like today for example the massive storm that hit up The RGC. It was quite epic, with the spontanious loud thunder, and cracking lighting, i love em!!! oh and i cant forget the little hail we got, hence my title:) Heres a little example of what mother nature had to offer our fair city today, beautiful she isMake sure to pay attention to the poor bastard stuck in this glorious storm, he was just trying to sit outside and enjoy his popsicle:( It was quite amussing for me though.

Welcome baby girl!!

Well the time has come, Emmas birthday, may 18th, 2009. 26 hours of labour and worth it all. Emma Inara, the light of my life:):) Being a mom is the best feeling in the world.

A good e-mail i recieved the other day, i feel i need to share:

Here it is probably something that will make you laugh, especially for those of you who know what it is like to meet and smile at the public everyday of your life. These are just some things that once in a while you would love to say:

THINGS YOU'D LOVE TO SAY OUT LOUD AT WORK


1. I can see your point, but I still think you're full of shit.

2. I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce.

3. How about never? Is never good for you?

4. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public.

5. I'm really easy to get along with once you people learn to see it my way.

6. I'll try being nicer if you'll try being smarter.

7. I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message.

8. I don't work here. I'm a consultant.

9. It sounds like English, but I can't understand a damn word you're saying.

10. Ahhh...I see the f@$k-up fairy has visited us again.

11. I like you. You remind me of myself when I was young and stupid.

12. You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers.

13. I have plenty of talent and vision; I just don't give a damn.

14. I'm already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth.

15. I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you.

16. Thank you. We're all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view.

17. The fact that no one understands you doesn't mean you're an artist.

18. Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.

19. What am I? Flypaper for freaks!?

20. I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant

21. Congratulations, you have officially earned the “Dumber Than a Box of Rocks Award.”

22. You know the acronym behind your name won't keep me from kicking your ass in the parking lot.

23. And your cry-baby whiny-assed opinion would be...?

24. Do I look like a people person?

25. This isn't an office. It's Hell with fluorescent lighting.

26. I started out with nothing & still have most of it left.

27. Sarcasm is just one more service we offer.

28. If I throw a stick, will you leave?

29. Errors have been made. Others will be blamed.

30. Whatever kind of look you were going for, you missed.

31. I'm trying to imagine you with a personality.

32. A cubicle is just a padded cell without a door.

33. Can I trade this job for what's behind door #1?

34. Too many freaks, not enough circuses.

35. Nice perfume. Must you marinate in it?

36. Chaos, panic, & disorder - my work here is done.

37. How do I set a laser printer to stun?

38. I thought I wanted a career; turns out I just wanted a salary.

39. Who lit the fuse on your tampon?

40. Oh I get it... like humour... but different.






Seriously, wouldnt it be a perfect world with the use of these words to certain people:)

RIP Bernice Frankel

Bernice Frankel was born May 13th 1922 and passed on to a better life on April 25th, at the age of 86. She lived a long and full life, if you still dont know who i am talking about one of my favorate comiediannes of her time, Bea Arthur. Originally studying to become a medical lab technician, she quickly switched career choices after seeing medical work as TEDIOUS. She started taking drama and in 1958 had a first role on broadway "The threepenny opera" was her very first paid break. In the 1960s she then appeared in the original broadway performance for fiddler on the roof.Also appearing in "Mame" with Angela Landsbury. Her first regular TV work was for "ceasars hour" comedy sketch show. then in the 70s became the character we all know as "Maude", her title character was a once widowed, and twice divorced, quick witted individual. Finally in the 80s she hit it even bigger with the role of "Dorthy" in the golden girls. Which was and still is one of my favorite sitcoms of all time. The show went from 1985-1992.
As far as I am concerned she lived a full life of succeeding on doing what SHE wanted to do, I have always admired her and her work, and yes i still do watch golden girls to this day, that show wont ever get old as far as great sitcoms are concerned. I have to thank my Granny for the wonderful intro to the golden girls:)

Absence vs. absolution

What i meant to entitle was black vs. white, and no this aint a racial thing i am talking about, it is a comparison. And proof that my newer relationship with Shawn is a completion of each other:) When i first moved in Shawns bathroom was full of white towels, until i multicoulored the shit out of it....mwahaha. i ask him why that is, cause i dont own one white towel, they are my mortal enemy. I hate white, stains so easily, and really i dont want items that i have to bleach all the time to keep clean. Unfortunatley he told me that white is a good colour for a bathroom. As in my old place where i lived alone, my bathroom was black. So i came in with everything but white, twisted his whole world around, and now we couldnt be happier. We talked today about how, black and white are completely opposites but still complete each other and look good together. Black being the sign of abscence, and white well perhaps the opposite sign of absolution, but yet work together. Who knows maybe someday he can move me to to a brighter colour, he is already on a good road to it:)

Longing to look in our daughters eyes:):)

Life alterations happen on a daily basis, but one of the biggest ones in a mommy to be is the birth of her unborn child. Especially a first time mommy. Questions, worries (which by the way I have never done so much), which is why we have people in our lives to answer those questions, thankful for those people by far, then there are the books, and the internet, maybe tv once in a while (the whole reason I watch Nanny 911) nanny always has some good thoughts to share:) We have approx. 8 weeks left in this journey I call pregnancy. Then we get to look in our daughters eyes, the one step we have both been longing for since the beginning.

Could be considered a good day today:)

Ok so we decided today to go out and search some more, a place we did come by tonight, I even coughed up the money for it, as soon as I saw it. This place is much pricier, and its in the hood, but its on an upper level which means we are still getting renters insurance, and we are going to have to choose what gang colours we are going to start worshipping and wearing. But to have a place and move in is may 1st, feels so much better!!! I am more so excited to set up Emmas room, and I am sure I will have plenty of time to do that while on my mat leave. Which should be coming up soon. Its going to feel nice to not have to put up with people who have no common sense (ie customer service) for a whole year. However I will miss working, but I can always go back to that. In the meantime, i will just work at home for no pay. 2 months and 6 days, will come faster and faster by the day. Meeting mr. obstetrican tommorrow, and applying for my mat leave, hopefully everything going smoothly, but who knows, there is always thorns on roses in life.

On a nice stretch off, so I am blogging again....

So here is the best part of the year, yes folks you guessed it, the beginning of a new spring, fresh flowers, showers, and of course we cant forget the hot beaming sun:) As during winter you never feel the potential of the sun. And of course within the next few months, 2 to be exact, I will have a permanent beam of sunshine. Emma shall arrive and change our lives forever, she already has for the most part. We are slowly preparing for her little arrival, not having much luck at the moment, but also not losing hope. As most landlords in the city now do not want children in their places, I mean we may as well have a giant boxer type dog that barks all hours into the night, as per their reaction. And yes some do take babies, but they charge you extra now as the ones who do take kids are rare to find, so why not make a bit of profit off of their "thoughtfulness". We are having to wait a few years to buy a house as, the downpayment alone is a bitch to save up. And it wont help that i wont be working a month or two from now. We are doing what we can for now though, i am sure there is more we could be doing, and dont worry we are resorting to everything possible. Either way there is always a light at the end of a tunnel, just sometimes theres something or someone blocking it once in a while. In the meantime, we will just have to keep trying and maybe something will pop-up.

I also have a salute to do today...a salute to those people out there who believe that people such as myself shall never change and that even something as amamzing as a child shall never have an impact, to those and believe me you know who you are i would just like to say, look in the mirror for a second and try to lye to yourself that you are and always have been perfect, and please make sure you make yourself look all pretty while doing so, that way the make-up can cover up your doubt more than your own words ever could.

One last thing to reach my conclusion after this more or so bitter blogging today: I could not be happier as to where i am right now, I know why certain things happen, and its always for a good reason:)

Better days are a comin!!!

Yeah once in a while I will indulge and feel the great pleasure of sharing thoughts (sometimes), points of views, although not lately, and upkeeping in my life. So I want to start by saying thanks for stopping by, and checking in to "Foofie.com"
although the recent HUGE changes in my life have happened oh so quickly, Baby, which is the biggest step a person can take, and also most exciting, especially with this one being my first angel:) second is my big job change, I now am no longer in resturant managment anymore, I have switched over to wedding consultation, the complete oppostie of what I thought and anyone who knew me well enough thought where I would be. Its an amazing feeling to find that someone that you know you can see yourself with when you are grey and have no memory left. Its amazing how much impact one moment can have on the rest of your life, and you how you never realize it until the moment comes and you wake up to reality ,and how ignorant one once was. I have made some friends in this process and lost some, but all in all, time changes everything people change, grow apart and best of all learn life lessons about nessecary and unessecary things.
I am now 18 weeks pregnant and glowing, unlike the first few months when I spent my whole time not having an appetite, and throwing up. So far the second triemester I am back to my normal self, except of course the drunk part:)
