Yadda Yadda Yadda

So, I am totally over my anger from the weekend and yesterday. I guess I got it all out of my system with the letter writing. Still chaps my ass, though.

Anyhoo, I just figured out what I am getting Drew for his birthday and I'm super excited... which means he will probably know by the weekend what he's getting. Speaking of the weekend, we are going to be very busy. We are cutting down a birch tree in the front yard and I am planting some more flowers and cleaning up around the house. I plan on starting a few projects within the next month and I have a lot to do before I can get those up and running. Saturday night we are going to a friends house for her official "housewarming party" yeah and than Sunday work in the yard again. We have quite a few planned this year for the house so there won't be anymore vacations for the year and there will be a lot of weekends around the house working. Being a homeowner; even in an uptight, bullshit subdivision ( I mean you GE) is hard work.

I am pleasant today and not in a pissy mood so I apologize at the utterly mind numbing entry....

Peace out Bitches and Ho's..... and that means you too my lovely subdivision committee board members!

The nice letter.

To All Board Members:


I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to the members of the Association Committee (AC). Unfortunately, when I initially set up the website for the association, I was unaware that this site linked web pages by user names. Clearly, I had no idea that this, had in fact, occurred and upon being informed, I immediately removed the website from the internet.

It has been brought to my attention that some of my personal opinions posted on my personal website have been brought into question. I would like to make it perfectly clear that I do not feel it necessary to either give explanation or apologize for these opinions. It was not my intent for these statements and views to be fodder for the AC.

Furthermore, I am in complete disagreement with the manner in which this situation was addressed. I feel it was utterly inappropriate and coercive to be told when representatives would be coming to my residence. Additionally, I found it irresponsible that members of this organization would insinuate that this minor oversight had somehow justified legal action.

After the events of the past week, I feel it would behoove both the AC and myself if I no longer took an active role in this association. Therefore, please consider this electronic notification as my intent to resign. I appreciate the opportunities that this organization has provided and wish it and its members continued success.

Regards,

This blog has been posted by Meg. I need to mention that Jen is completely miffed that I have somehow "taken all the "Jen" out of the letter." I tried expressing that sometimes less is more, but she's PISED...still.

I am PISED now, people

I would like to take this opportunity and apologize to everyone on the Board. I made a horrible mistake in February when I made the AC blog active, I inadvertently linked it to my personal blog. I, obviously had no idea that this had in fact occurred and take full responsibility for the embarrassment that I must have caused everyone. However, I will not apologize for what I personally posted on my blogsite. Although you may not agree with all or some of what I posted it's not up for you to decide because quite frankly I have a right to an opinion and a right to express that opinion like everyone else in this country. Whether it is right, wrong or indifferent is not the point simply it is my right as a citizen and I will not be attacked regarding that subject. Nor will I allow people to come into my home and attempt to blindside me into thinking that what I did was out of malice. I made a mistake and for that I apologize, but I am only apologizing for that. I simply regret that this small and simple mistake turned into the Drama of the Week and I can only pity the people that are obsessing over something so trivial.

After everything that has happened in the past week I feel that it would be in my best interest if I no longer took an active role in this association. Therefore, consider this electronic notification as my intent to resign and thank you for the opportunity.

This is the letter that I wanted to send and unfortunately the adults that I consider my friends made me stop. I will post the email that I send to everyone in my committee shortly.

Baby Daddy Drama

Well, thank the Lord! The world can finally breathe a collective sigh of relief, we now know wh o fathered the mega-whores (Anna Nicole Smith) baby girl, DannieLynn. I, myself was shocked that is not, in fact, the drug-head, big nosed freak Howard K. Stern. Then I stopped myself and remembered I don't give a shit!!! Let's recap people just in case everyone has forgotten.

• We are at war, and it is only getting worse. Welcome to this generations Vietnam


• 23 people were killed in a blast in Algeria, yesterday.
4 people were killed her in Memphis by a fire. Three of them, children.

• Menu Foods is responsible for the deaths of many, many pets with the total to keep rising.


• Charges are dropped on the three boys from Duke who were falsely accused of raping a stripper. But, not too worry although the charges have been dropped for the rest of their lives they will have the stigma of "rapist" hanging over their head,


• A man with only two years of political experience has $27 million in the bank and a scary amount of America backing him for the White House.

No worries, though b/c the first thing this morning that I saw on msnbc.com was none of that. It was this Anna Nicole bullshit. Wake up people! Who cares, who the hell the Daddy is? Has your life been altered by the fact that you now know?

I agree that yes, the life and times of celebrities is grear fodder BUT it is not news. If you cannot have an educated conversation about the upcoming elections, the war or any other pertinent topic that affects our society, but can, regarding the divorce proceedings on Brittany and K-fed. Than, you should be ashamed with yourself and move the hell to Canada.

Spring has Sprung..... kinda

These past few weeks (down here in the shit hole that is Memphis) the weather has been fantastic. Sleeping with the windows upen at night and having that fresh spring smell throughout the house. It's been great, that is at least up until this week. By Friday, it is supposed to be a balmy 48 degrees and that aint good people. That aint good at all. In fact, I am certain that spring had arrived b/c my good buddy Gary had been attacked by a kamikaze Bee... proof that spring had in fact; sprung. I was wrong and so was that poorp misguided bee it's back to wool pants and sweaters at least until Monday when it will be back up to 83, sunny and half the city at home in bed, sick.





This weekend we worked our tails off and the front yard looks fantastic. We tore out the front bushes (they were getting lippy so we used them as an example for all the other fauna in the yard) and replanted a bunch of crap. I call it crap not because I don't like it. I do, but this green thumb of mine is still a work in progress. Not only don't I know all the names of the flowers that we planted, but I don't care what their names are. You know, as long as they are pretty and make me smile.

In other news, we watched the movie The Departed this weekend, and it rocked. I was so impressed by all of the big names and how well the whole thing was acted out. Amazing, I tell ya, amazing. I think my fav character in the film was Alec Baldwin, he just keeps getting better and better. Too bad his shit head brothers didn't get any of his acting ability. I hate that little fuck Stephen almost as much as I hate Oprah or Martha.

This week Drew is going to KC for an evening and he is going to have dinner with our friends up there. I would like to say that I am excited that he can go up there and have fun with them, but I can't. I am so jealous that he is going to be out with them it is killing me. The only thing is it probably won't be everybody b/c one of our friends is now dating someone seriously and from what I understand he doesn't have time for anyone else anymore. It's a pity really, I hear everybody misses him.

Happy Birthday to Me

So, this past weekend was my Birthday and we went to a party that in our subdivision and we had a blast!

Drew and Annie surprised me with new pots and pans, roses, CD's and a cute beer drinking mug with shamrocks all over it. Yeah me! Sam and Tom made sure that I had a great birthday I went on a limo ride, had a cake and got some great gifts. All in all it was a great day.

We didn't accomplish a whole lot yesterday simply b/c I managed to give Drew my cold and we were both tired from all the festivities the night before. However, we did watch the first season of The Office and started on Disc One of Season Two. Busy bees let me tell ya.

Work lately has totally sucked ass and I have managed to NOT sell anything for three weeks! Rock On! I am thinking about getting a job at The Gap until things start improving...

Peace Out and I promise to start blogging again, I got lazy and lost interest after the vacay... which was awesomely awesome.

My Very Own Mastercard Commercial

2 Concert Tickets to see Bob Seger $150.00

1 Bob Seger Concert T-Shirt $35.00

Kid sitting next to you and
vomiting everywhere..... Priceless

Chaos aside, it was a great concert. He played for almost three hours with only one break and my only regret is that he did not sing Come to Papa which is one of my all-time Bob Fav's... but oh well you can't get everything.

Weather update -
It did snow last week and West TN was a winter wonderland until about 1p.m. Friday afternoon. We got about an inch and a half and more than enough to keep Annie happy in the backyard for the morning. The dog is crazy about the stuff, and very entertaining to watch.

White Death 2007

The mid-south is about to get hit with a slight winter storm tonight starting around 8pm. The powers that be are estimating somewhere in the ballpark of about 3 inches; give or take. Now, for those of you kind readers north of the Mason Dixon line might be asking yourselves.... Who cares? Well, let me tell ya it is utter chaos down here. The two salt trucks (in all of TN) are already out and about and the grocery stores are packed with obsessed suburbanite mothers grabbing all the milk, eggs and bread that they can get their hands on. So, as usual nothing will come of this and life will return to normal by this time Thursday. However, to celebrate White Death 2007, Drew is making a fire and I am planning on cuddling up to it and working my way through a better part of a bottle of wine. Who needs french toast, anyway????

In other news, Drew and I are leaving in ten days for HI and I can barely contain the excitement. (Besides, the initial fear of crashing somewhere over the Pacific and being eaten by a whale.) It will be a great trip and I really need one, ADT busts my ass!

Peace out, and if you don't hear from me in a few days.... send the calvary.
