Ideal

I got tagged....Thanks Jimmy. Sorry it took me so long.

We live by the rules...We die by the rules: Tag 8 victims to join this game & leave a comment on a post letting them know they have been tagged. If tagged before, no need to contribute.

8 attributes (in no particular order) of Jess' "perfect" (perfect in quotes, because no one really is!) partner:
(oops, I actually put mine in order...it's easier)

1. 1. Humor - Oh, I can't stand it when men can't/won't be funny. It's a killer in a relationship for me (if we make it that far) if they aren't funny. Not slapstick funny either, dry, witty humor for me thanks.
2. 2. Intelligence - I don't want to talk to cardboard, I need some substance. I don't want a rocket scientist, (unless you know one who's interested in me?) just someone with a little book smarts and a lot of street smarts.
3. 3. Balls/Confidence - ok, this is SO important. I am a really strong woman, so I need a strong man.
4. 4. Honesty - Who the hell wants a liar? Sometimes the truth hurts, but that's life, take the good with the bad.
5. 5. Respect - This is sorta a gimme, but I can't respect anyone who doesn't respect me. Period.
6. 6. Support - I cannot be with a man who doesn't support my decisions in life. From hair color to career, he needs to support it ALL.
7. 7. Independent - I need space...a lot of space. So an independent man is a necessity.
8. 8. Easy Going - I need someone who is up for anything and is cool with hanging out on the couch watching a movie or spending the day riding the same rollercoaster 20 times.

Now I have to tag 8 people, damn thats a lot of tagging:

1. Duane

4. Eunuch
5. Paul
6. Julio

Cats + Scratch = Bloody Ear

So I was laying in bed last night and for some reason I couldn't sleep. I could hear my sweet little kitties playing and running in the living room. They came running into my bedroom, across my head (and apparently my ear) and this is what I was left with...

I spent 20 minutes cleaning the blood off my face & out of my ear. Wow, I haven't seen that much blood in a long time. (I had to sleep on a towel because I couldn't get them to stop bleeding) Yes, I said them...I have one really deep cut on the outside, that is the one I couldn't get to stop bleeding, a smaller one below that and a really long one on the inside.

Luckily I went to work this morning and Dana (my co-worker) applied liquid stitches to the scratches to stop the bleeding. Gross right?

Laundry Sucks

I fucking hate doing laundry, and since I just spent the last 5 1/2 hours doing it...I dont have time to post anything good. Talk to you all tomorrow.

No More Darts....

YEAH!! Dart Monday is OVER!! Now I can play when I want to, instead of because I have to.

Big surprise...we came in last...but it was fun for a while.

Broncos Fans Are Crazy?

Broncos fans are willing to do just about anything to get tickets to Sunday's AFC Championship game. They're offering to pay thousands of dollars or to trade wedding photography, a fly fishing trip - even a diamond engagement ring. But a Fort Collins physician has come up with perhaps the strangest ticket-trade offer of all. "The offer is a full service vasectomy," says Dr. Steven Broman of Associates in Family Medicine, "which includes pre-op and post-op visits, all the lab tests and things that go along with that, for two Broncos tickets. Anywhere in the stadium is fine."
Broman came up with the idea after seeing what other fans were offering on the Internet. "There's plumbers, electricians, landscapers - that's all great," says Broman. "I don't do plumbing. This (vasectomies) is the kind of plumbing I do."

Does anyone else find this disturbing?

Stupid Brain

Does anyone else get migraine headaches? I always get them with stress...and unfortunately I'm stressed today. So I'm gonna take a nap and see if I can get rid of it.

S'mores at 8am? Hell Yeah!

My mom bought me a S'mores maker for Christmas last year, not like 3 weeks ago, but last Christmas. We couldn't find the stupid little cans of fuel anywhere and when I looked online you had to buy like 20 of them at a time, so needless to say it's been sitting in the box for over a year now. This Christmas my mom found the fuel and I finally get to use it. So I brought it to work today....it's a hit. We fired that bad boy up at 8:30 this morning...and again at 12:00..... and Mmmmm!

Go Broncos!!

GO BRONCOS!!

I had to post something for my dad who is a huge Denver Broncos fan. I usually just see the game as an opportunity to drink beer with friends but I hope they can pull it off today.

So as I was googling images to put in this post I came across the most ridiculous Broncos items you can buy. So in addition to the jerseys, t-shirts, hats, golf balls, towels, sheet sets and belt buckles (because yes, everyone in the country thinks we're still living in the wild west, so why not have a huge Denver Broncos belt buckle to go with your all important cowboy boots) I thought I would post a few of the products that made me laugh...






Denver Broncos Barbeque Sauce











Denver Broncos Picante Sauce










Denver Broncos Gold Charm (for the lady that has EVERYTHING)




Homemade Denver Broncos Couch Potato Door Stop (what?)
(because I'm sure someone out there wants one of these, here is the link)








Homemade Denver Broncos Damn-It Doll

And My Favorite.....

The Denver Broncos Mailbox

I Concede

I watched one episode of the
"The Office" last season. I so didn't like it. But, all my friends watch it and talk about it incessantly, so I decided to check it out again. Well, I love it now and last nights episode made me laugh out loud.

The one thing that bothered me about last nights episode was when Dwight went for his CatScan and the tech told them they couldn't have any metal on them. That's not true when you're having a CatScan (trust me, I've had a few,) that's when you're having an MRI. I guess that's the hazard of working in a radiology department, I can see when things like chest x-rays are hung backwards, like the intro to "Scrubs." Sorry, I just realized how bitchy that sounded.

And on the upside....I'm feeling so much better. I just about coughed up a lung today and I miraculously feel 1000 times better.

Poor Uni!

The other day Ali & I were talking and we realized we hadn't fed our sweet little virtual unicorn in a really long time. (like a week) Oops! So Sunday morning I ran to the computer, logged on and fed the poor little guy. (yeah, he was almost a goner) So today I remembered I hadn't fed him since Sunday (I don't know why it's so difficult to remember, but I blame my sickness) So to my surprise I logged on and it says he's satiated. I don't understand. 7 days very bad, 4 days fine. Sorry Nick!

Slacker

So it was brought to my attention today that I have been a
'blog SLACKER!' I will start by saying that I'm very sorry to my loyal readers and I will try to get back in the habit of posting daily.

Then I will tell you that the reason I haven't posted in the last few days is because I have been sick. Not just 'oh poor jess doesn't feel well' sick, but like bad sick, not keeping food down, coughing so hard my ribs hurt, sick. It's been 4 long days of that fun and the good news is I'm finally starting to feel a little better. But really all I want to do is sleep. (and no that's not really me in the picture, eww that would be weird)

And in an awesome follow up to the hour I wasted watching a history channel special on 'paint' in November, I just wasted another hour watching a show about 'gold mining.' Did you know that gold is so dense that a cube weighing one ton measures just 14.2 inches on each side? And of all the gold ever discovered, 90% has been found since 1848? Wow, now I know a lot of useless crap about gold. (And next hour: Rubber, geez I need to feel better and get out of the house)

Happy New Year!
