My Cute Nephews!

Image
So my birthday was a couple weeks ago, but I held off on celebrating with my family until this past weekend as they knew they'd be able to come visit then. We didn't do a whole lot other than go out to eat and hang out at my apartment for a while, but that was enough to get some really cute pictures of my nephews! We went out to eat at Cheeburger Cheeburger. Here's a link to their website for those of you who have never heard of them. Diner experience with custom made cheeseburgers! Now because they also do shakes, and have a "shake of the day" we all felt the urge to indulge. Pictured above is my youngest nephew, Ronan, showing off a big grin after Grandma let him have some of her Peanut Butter and Banana shake. This kid has suction power! See those 3 straws in Grandma's hand? Ronan had all three of them in his mouth with shake moving up all three of them at the same time! Now back at the apartment there wasn't much to do, but I do have a Wii and th

Office Space

For those that may not know. I hate my job. The picture above is pretty much how I feel about it. I'm an Administrative Specialist for a state agency. While the job isn't hard, and honestly I normally don't have all that much to do, its extremely boring and I feel brain dead most of the time. I directly support 8 people and provide assistance when needed to 12 others who do not have their own support staff anymore after lay offs last summer. So, about six months ago I was having a lot of problems with my stomach. I went to the doctor and as far as they can tell I simply have irritable bowl syndrome. I had a colonoscopy done just to make sure it wasn't more serious. The doctor then proscribed me some nasty prescription drink mix stuff that I took for 2 days then refused to drink more. I'm currently taking some over the counter stuff along with a fiber supplement to try and help keep things going as they should, but it doesn't help every day. Some days being mor

On the 9th Floor..

So, I work on the 9th floor of a 10 story office building. Normally this isn't a bad thing. We have a semi-nice view of the city from up here, which depending on the weather is kinda pretty. When it isn't nice to work on the 9th floor is when someone decides to burn their popcorn in the microwave setting off the fire alarms. I'm a government employee, and as such I have the traditional figure of such. Round. I'm not in shape by any means, nor are most of the people who work here. I'm just lucky I'm not one of the ones who also has ankle/knee problems. On average I walk maybe 1 mile a day, mostly just to and from my car as I have to park 3 blocks from my building. So it isn't like I never move, but 9 flights of stairs for me is just painful. The worst part is that it wasn't painful while actually walking down them, or over the block to our meeting place. They started getting soar about 30 minutes later and getting worse the rest of the day. Now, 3 day

Maybe I'll try this...

So it isn't like I haven't tried to do blogs before. I have. But my life just isn't interesting enough for me to keep it updated. So I'll put this here and it'll probably be the only thing I ever post. Not like anyone will read it anyways. Other than maybe Zoe. Everyone I know who would even look at my profile has drifted away from yuku for one reason or another. Life is like that. Hell even I'm not really around. But I think it's more reactionary for me. People stopped coming by FK, so nothing new was being posted, so I had nothing to read or comment on, so I started stopping by less and less. I've not bothered trying to find another community to join either. I don't have a lot of time for RP and I don't know what other type of forum would even be interesting. That and I'm not good meeting new people. Took me a week just to work up the courage to post at FK the first time. *pauses* Hmm...guess I had more to say than I thought for this. B
