3 of 6 tattoos


Back piece right after is was finished

I already had the unicorn on the left and the red rose on the far right...the tribal with the blue rose and the fushia color roses were just added. This thing hurt like a mother bunny humper.
so this is 3 of the 6 tattoos...3 combined to look like one big tat.

Barracuda and not the song


Barracuda for Kitten

Shark!!!!!


Another close up of a reef shark

Penis Coral

This is some coral the house elf found and was so proud because it looked like a penis. **sigh** men will never grow up

Butt Crack


Butt Crack Coral

This is the piece of coral that I almost killed myself swimming to the damn elf when he was banging on his tank like he was out of air and drowning. I could have killed him when I burnt half a tank of air getting to him so he could show me this butt crack

Back in the saddle with itchy ears, ninja moms and other stuff

Okay..I said no new years resolutions but here's one. I'll try not to do any more boring posts. Well okay all my posts are boring but damnit people this is my happy little dream and I'd appreciate it if you'd stop trying to wake me up. Alright....Alright.

Have you ever woke up with itchy ears. I don't mean those little outter crevices that we all pretend to wash and then when the dirt and wax builds up we have to pick at it wondering where all the crud came from...but the deep down in your ear drum let me shove a ice pick in there to scratch my brain sort of itch. That was the wonderful sensation that I woke up to this morning. Which of course immediatly made me parnoid that the dogs left ticks or fleas in the bed since they love to sleep on the bed. So all morning I've got the mutts pinned to the floor picking them over like monkeys in a zoo grooming each other looking for pests. Of course they had none so now then I contiplated pouring alchol in my ear...but alas I eneded up drinking the tequilla instead of washing it down my ears...now I'm buzzed with itchy ears. If you don't hear from me for a few days it means I've found a very tall basement window to fling myself out of in an attempt to stop the insanity in my ears.

Okay I've had several inquiries about the frozen bread loaf incident...Thanks Chicken for not letting me conspiciously hide my shame in your comments section...LOL So here is the whole humiliting story.
Around the age of 16, when all of us know infinatly more than our parents do. (That's when they should kick us the hell outta their houses to go make our millions since we are so worldly and wise at that age and KNOW IT ALL damnit) Anyway, myself and my Uncle who is only a few years older than I am were arguing about something in the kitchen, so my mom walks in to break up the fisco of our fight. I'm 6'1" and he is like 6"4" and we were most definatly trailor trash..(walk into the kitchen/living room through the front door..man I wish I was joking about that one) so when we got to wrestling it felt like a hurricane/tornado/earthquake was hitting the home...so mom is trying to break up the fight and the Uncle and I deceide to turn on her, and play hot potato..with my poor 5'8" mother as the hot potato. This of course did not amuze her in the slightest. So she whips around and flings open the freezer. Now my mom buys EVERYTHING on sale and freezes it..no matter what it is. So she had like 80 loaves of bread in the freezer. She grabs one in each hand, whirls around on us holding these loaves of bread by the tie ends, and has this wild look in her eyes, and drool dripping down her chin. She beigins to make this high pitch noise that sounds like a bad Bruce Lee movie sound track and starts to ninja swing aroud these loaves of bread. People I'm here to tell you I've never had my ass kicked so badly as I did that day with those frozen bread loaves. My uncle and I were supporting black eyes, multiple cuts and contusions, fat lips and I think I still have a chipped tooth from that incident. Nothing and I mean nothing my blogging famliy..is more humbling than to have your ass kicked by a short woman sporting bread loaves. By the way ask Burfica, mom was just as wild with the Ninja flyswatters..Burf got her share of welts and bruises from the flyswatters. Of course looking back on it now...we were such angels there is no way we deserved this punishment. I after all was the perfect child, and while Burf wasn't perfect she was as close as she could get being the younger sister and all. Evil rotten mommy anyway.

Speaking of being the big sister...I contiplated this morning being a very good sister and was going to Call Burfica early..since she's been posting on her blog (>>>>look over there under don't eat the tomatoes..good lord folks if you aint' read it yet you are lacking in your daily blogging experience) any ways she's been whinning and moaning about sleeping in and how hard it's gonna be to start getting up to take the kiddo to school..so I thought hey...she's an hour behind me so I'll just call to be helpful...but then I grew a brain. Last time I thought I'd be helpful and call her early...the kiddo answered. Let me tell you all..this is scary, this child hates mornings as much as his mother does. Last time I called and woke up the bratnic, I swear I dialed 1-800-Satanshotline. This child picked up the phone and sounded like something you'd conjur up in a horror movie voodoo ceremony. The gruntal growls and threats from the mouth of a 8 1/2 year old is bone chilling. So being the great big sister and wonderful Aunt that I am...deceided to let the two darlings sleep in as long as they wanted to, I never want to cross the early morning spawn of satan again, I'll just wait until my little angelic nephew as emerged in the mid-morning early afternoon sweet kid that he really is.

Okay enough blogging for now.
I hope I've thus far stuck to my new years resolution

Late Night Post

I'm sitting up late..playing on my new laptop. Yayyyy house elf...and thought I'd do a quick post.
The zoo is plopped down around my feet. Blade is laying on one foot...Capser is laying on the other foot. Both have gotten a few table scraps and are farting on my feet choking me outta the room. One cat is under the Christmas tree laying on her back lazily batting at a oranment...the other cat is about 12 feet long on a blanket she found half on the floor. People I ask you how can Cats get streatched out that long. It makes me fearful...I don't ever really want to piss one of these animals off if they can make them self that long.

Nothing really intresting happened today. I came home from work early sick again. Yesterday I was sooooooo sick. I had been really happy that I hadn't been sick in over a week and BAM yesterday it hit hard. I did not know a human being could actually examine their toenails from the inside and surive but I'm telling you it can happen. I'm here to tell you I have really ugly toenails from the inside. Ick...Oh a note of your list of not to do's. Barfing pumpkin pie is really disgusting. It looks bad..it makes the toilet water spalsh up in your face and it tastes much better the first time.
On the note of being sick though the Dr.s office called. I have to have another test done on Monday but they are almost positive that it's my gall bladder. If this last test shows for a fact it is, then they are going to yank it out. I just want whatever it is to be fixed.

Poor little house elf had to have a root canal done today. My poor little hubby doesn't handle pain real well. He's been holding up a brave front but he's in bed already...before Midnight. This is the man who stays up till 1 or 2 in the morning and then gripes at me about being tired. He was in bed tonight before 11. Poor baby...I'll have to be extra nice to him for the next couple of days.

I think the most popular presents for the house elf this year has been his XM raido and his subscription to netflix. Actually I've been playing on the net flix site more than the elf but he's really liking it as well. It's so cute to see a grown man carrying around his XM radio like it's a blankie or something. hehehehehe

Okay I'm done boring you for now. I'll post some more tomorrow when hopefully I can be more witty.

goodies...movies...other stuff

I hope my blogger family had a great Christmas. Our weekend was very nice, and since I didn't have alot of people over and we don't have little folk it was pretty relaxing as well.
I ended up working all day on Christmas Eve but that's okay because we were able to help some folks that were leaving for a trip on Sunday get geared up, and to help a couple others frantically looking for last minute gifts. That in itself feels good.

My hubby did really good this year. Now mind you that man of mine has 0 romance and not alot of creativity as he's an Electrical engineer and a computer programmer so he does point A to pont B in a straight line. So for the last 5 years I've known exactally what I was getting for Christmas etc. Well this year as we were opening gifts and of course as mentioned earlier we got each other new dive computers which we knew about as that was a fairly sizable purchase. But I had alot of goodies for him under the tree...lots of scuba things like a sling tank with strap, tee-shirts, hats, swimming trunks, assorted DVD's and CD's a memberhip to Netflix and signed up for XM radio, etc...so we are opening gifts and I got 1 tee shirt, 1 dewrag (for diving) and a pair of jammies along with the dive computer. I felt a bit down cuz I got him all these goodies..but figured with the dive computers he thought that was a pretty large purchase. So as I'm cleaning up after his brother and mom you know picking up all the paper etc...he says oh look hunni here is another box..it was a small box wrapped. I open it and there is a note in there saying well hunni I just had to hold true to form even on christmas day and be a pain in the butt. Your last gift is in the scuba closet on the topself, so I go in there and there is a largeish box quite heavy and in it was a rocking new laptop...Whoooo hoooo I had no clue. He didn't even tell Burfica about the suprise. He bought the laptop over a month ago and has been hiding it at his brother's house and keeping the secret all that time. Anyone who knows my hubby knows he is no good at secrets...so I'm very proud of him.

We did a movie marathon at the theater yesterday.
Movie #1 Life Aquatic with Steve Zissu
This is the most boring movie I have ever sat through. I was quite excited to see it as it was a spoof on scuba diving..but good lord...30 minutes into the 2 hour movie and I was squirming. The storyline sucked...all of the little scuba spoofs you see on the previews well that's it. The most intresting parts were in the previews. Not even Owen Wilson could save this horror of a movie. Sheesh I give it half a star out of 5 stars possible

Movie #2 Lemony Snickets a series of Unfortunate Events
This is definatly worth seeing but you may want to wait for the DVD and rent it. It was a very good movie in my opinion. It had the feel of the movie Big Fish which I enjoyed. If you didn't like Big Fish you probably won't like this movie. I'll give this one 3 1/2 stars outta 5

Movie #3 Darkness
This is being billed as the scariest movie of the year Hmmmm by whose standards?
The Grudge that was a scary movie...The Ring..another scary movie. Darkness...nope not so scary. This movie couldn't deceide if it was going to be a scary movie or a physocoligial thriller...so it failed miserably at both. Though it was more intresting then the life aquatic masterpiece.
I give this one one star outta 5

What's up people I would have been better off going to see the sponge bob square pants movie or staying home and watching the Grandma got ran over by a reindeer cartoon. What a disappointing movie marathon day.

I'll post a bit more later when I have some inspiring thoughts
Tell me what Santa brought you all for Christmas. I love to hear about everyones gifts.
What was the most popular toy for the wee folk?

Christmas Eve Day

Merry Christmas Eve Day my blogger family.
Not alot of excitment has been happening around here the last couple of days. However the scuba shop has been quite busy. Yayyyyy, I was justified in insisting that we be open the days before Christmas. ALOT of people have rushed in to get stocking stuffers, major pieces of equipment and gift certificates. AWESOME!! One of the biggest purchases had to be mine. The house elf and I got new Dive computers, while we both know what we got they are wrapped and sitting under the tree awaiting tomorrow morning before we can begin to play with the settings. We were informed that as much diving as we are doing we really need to now dive with 2 computers, and since you base your life and health on your computer we thought hmmmmmmm that's probably not a bad idea. :-) So that is our big gift to each other.

I have been amuzed by many of the people comeing in the last few days. We seem to have an influx of those that come swaggering in with the story, well my buddy took me out diving with him a few times. Therefore I am a super experienced diver and just need you to issue me a C-Card (certification card) They haven't wanted to take any classes, just want us to take their word for it that they have a whole **gasp** 6 dives with their buddy and therefore we need to just give them a card. Hrumph I don't think so numbnuts. I don't get it. This is a extreme sport...with proper training a very safe sport but without proper training it can kill you. Even with training things can happen and you can get hurt or dead like anything we do but still these people have figured that we'll just give em a card and send em on their way. Shaking head. I guess it takes all kinds to make the world go around.

Well I ventured out to Walmart again last night...it wasn't to bad, I was acutally suprised. I just needed some doggie joint medicine and some pumpkin pies for Christmas day, ohhhhhhh and I needed socks cuz all mine had holes in them. Hardly any rude people out last night and only 3 times were did people have their butts parked in the middle of the aisle talking to their friends. Maybe everyone is getting in the Christmas spirit.
My in-laws called wanting to do Church right in the middle of the evening tonight. Well I want to go look at Christmas lights. We haven't done that for like 3 years and I love to look at Christmas lights...so they are mad that I told them if they wanted to go as a family it's either early or midnight mass...Much grumbling I finally told them, Manny and I are full grown adults and capable of attending Chruch on our own, so go when you want to but we have plans, if they'd like to join in our plans they are welcome to but otherwise do what they want to do and we'll see them tomorrow. I don't know what the verdict was but I am going out looking at Christmas lights. **smile**

I hope everyone has a wonderful day today and tomorrow, Please be very safe if you go out tonight and use a designated driver. It would make me very sad (and angry) if any of my buds did any sort of drunk driving. I don't wanna lose any of you...(shhhhh don't tell anyone but I kinda like you all) :-)
Merry Christmas
Can't wait to hear what Santa gave you for the holidays cuz I'm sure you all have been very good little boys and girls

CHIT it's cold outside and the weather is frightful

I really want to know who's idea it was for an Arctic cold front to move through Texas. Give me a friggin' break. Texas, AZ and New Mexico are supose to be warm, sunny, a joy to live in. NOW..arctic blasts, freezing tematures and SNOW..SNOW it's not supose to snow around Christmas time..It is supose to be in the 60's or 70's. Who moved me to the northeast while I was asleep last night. Huh...which one of you did that to me.

So this morning the dumbest dogs in the world are leaping around wanting me to let them out. So I get outta my nice warm bed with the first thought being hmmm it's a bit chilly in here I wonder if I forgot to turn the heater on. I stumble to the back door and wander right outside with the dogs.. (I always go outside with em to give them fresh water) Now mind you I'm right outta bed and in a thin night shirt as I wander out the back door. The next thought that hits my sleep induced brain is IT"S COLD...then I realize as I hear the dogs go sliding by wrestling each other that there is SNOW in the back yard. The dog water is frozen solid. And the snow was comeing down in big old white fluffy clouds. Good lord I've been abducted by aliens and sent to a differnt planet..or I died and Hell is acutally cold.
The dumbest dogs in the world however loved the snow. I've been giving them both some stuff for their joints cuz as they get older they are moving much much slower. Apparantly this stuff is starting to work as 2 100+ pound dogs were acting as if they were puppies...running, sliding, tackeling each other then tackeling me. It is not fun to land ass first in the snow when in just a thin nighty. It took me an hour to coax them back inside. The whole time they were playing in the snow. So in they come coated in snow and mud, tounges hanging from mouths...smelling like wet dogs and flop right in the middle of the floor. To tired and to soar to move anywhere else but with big old stupid contented doggy looks on their precious faces.
At least someone is enjoying this.

I'm now waiting for the house elf to get here from a dentist appointment. He's had a horrid tooth ache. When he gets here I have to go be one of the jerk-o don't know how to drive in snow people. I want to get what I have to do before the stuff starts sticking to the roads and freezing up. Once that happens I will not be outta my house. I don't need to kill myself or anyone else. walmart is around the corner if I need anything I can hike over there.

Suggestions for Pain

This is a question mostly for the ladies
OUCHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Holy crap ladies I'm having horrid cramps. (Sorry guys)
I can't take anything asprin based for the pain...I'm having enough troubles with my little pouch that calls itself my new stomach I dont' need to ulcrate it with asprin stuff.
Any natural ideas for pain...Hot bath and hot pad has not worked.
I'm thinking a good line of herion but then that takes us to a whole new area

Narcosis on the brain

Today I feel like I'm in a total narc'd state. I'm not sure but Kitten might have sent me her vertigo. When you get Narc'd diving it's kinda like a night of Mezcal and you have eaten the worm. Nice thing about Narcing you come up a few feet and the feeling goes away with no puking (from eating the worm) and no hangover with the Damn tequilla monsters (If you've never seen a tequilla monster they look like the old aztec paintings of the the square headed/bodied creatures with the feet ((no legs just feet)) sticking out the bottom of the body--tequilla monsters have large vampire looking teeth and have a very sharp knife in each hand. They run across the ceiling and as soon as you open your eyes they begin a loud screaming and dive right for your eyeballs with knifes and teeth)But I digress.
I belive I was saying I feel like this narc'd state. The room is kind of spinning, I'm light headed and just feel queasy. I was very happy because for the last week I've been feeling pretty good, but today POW and icky. I hope my surgeon figures out soon what's going on and will fix it so I can stop being spinny, queasy and pukey..Boy doesn't that sound like names from a bad sitcom

So I had my CT scan yesterday...of couse I won't know anything for a few days until Dr M can check it out..but here was yesterday's adventure....Get up at Gawd aweful dark 30 in the morning just to drive to Dallas...ughhh but I won't go there again..see yesterday's post. Get to the hospital and signed in...then drink this horrid should be on Fear Factor fizzy stuff to make all my insides inked up. Yummmmm and stuff...The house elf wouldn't kiss me..the a-hole anyway.
Go to the back and the IV nurse comes over to poke me. I tell her...if they aren't taking me right in your don't want to put an IV in cuz it'll clot. She tells me I don't know what I'm talking about and sticks the IV in...it's 15 minutes before they take me in and of course the IV is clotted...(I do know my veins) So the cute little CT tech puts in another IV, and pumps me into the machine and it makes the horrid squalling sound. Kind of like the cat sounded when I pillow batted her down the hallway....and the machine gets the smokey smell..the tech runs out and says ummmmmmmmm this machine just broke we'll need to leave the room and use a differnt one. I'm thinking well no shit sherlock it smells like Chicken Flickens dishwasher and Kitten's oven about now. So we move rooms and of course the FRICKIN' IV is clogged up again.. Start a new IV and do the test. I was at the hospital for 4 1/2 hours...the actual scan took 7 minutes. Gawd I hate hospitals.

Now to top it off...feeling spinny, queasy and pukey we can add crampy and bitchy...meaning the dreaded curse has hit...ughhhhh I just wanna go home and crawl in bed with a hot pad.

I'm so glad I love you guys enough to share all this with.
Happy Tuesday

Cold Windy Monday

Woke up this morning and it's cold and windy and don't you know we have to get into the pool with student divers tonight. The in the pool part is okie dokie it's that getting out thing that really bothers me. The pool is nice and heated, but I have to jump out and show skills to the students like how to make giant stride entries, backrolls things like that. Getting out of the 85 degree water into the 30something air with wind is NOT fun and I'm gonna be bitchy. GAWD I hate to be cold. And the next 3 nights are supose to be even worse as far as how cold it's going to be. Grrrrrrrrrr...The house elf is taking 2 nights in the pool and I'm taking 2 nights. I have the feeling my 2 nights are gonna be the coldest. I know I know I'm whinning.

I didn't get much sleep last night. I went to bed fairly early as I had to be up early to go get a CT scan done. So just as I'm falling asleep I hear scratch scratch, MEOW MEOW claw at the carpet claw claw...So I get up to see what the damn cat wants..she runs in on the bed and goes purrr purrr purr pet me pet me. So after a couple minutes toss her back out and snuggle up under the covers and drift off to sleep only to hear scratch scratch MEOW MEOW claw claw again...it's now 3 am and I'm not happy. Open the bedroom door and kick at the cat and go back to bed. 4 am scratch scratch, MEOW MEOW claw claw...Okay now I'm pissed. Did you know that if you hold a king size pillow like a baseball bat. bum rush the bedroom door and swing you can launch a 10lb + cat down the hallway. I had to pick myself up off the floor as she was launching down the hall way she had a look in her eyes like WTF just happened. She landed on her feet and turned her ass to me with the I meant to do that demonor that only cats can get. HOWEVER she did not scratch at the door for the rest of the night. But by this time I was only able to snooze for another hour before having to get up and drive to Dallas.

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate driving into Dallas...I HATE it..and avoid driving to that side of the metroplex like it's a plauge. Gawd the traffic and the attitude of the people driving and in the stores just SUCKS
It's a good reason for road rage I'm telling you. You look in the rearview mirror to see someone coming up on your tailgate at about 110 miles per hour...move over outta their way so they can go screaming by you then they pull into your lane and slow down to like 45. If I can figure out how to get a 1.55 howizer mounted on my Durango and to keep it secured when firing and not rocketing backwards at mach 2 after the round leaves the weapon I'll clear the frigging freeways of drivers like that.
hehehehe Merry Christmas and all

Okay I'll post later if anything amuzing happens in my otherwise dull and dreary life

Why the hell is it

.........you can think of a million great ideas to blog about but then when you actually get your piece of junk computer to finally log on (cuz I gave my mom the great turbo power computer I built. I thought she'd need it for a business she'd like to start) that the blog you had in mind is floating around somewhere in the cobwebs that have taken up residence in my ceribum. Gawd I just hate it when that happens.

So you all are going to be stuck with my ramblings but I guess that's what I always do: then I will end with the list of things about me that I swipped from Papa...
Shiver...ladies don't every time you say Papa you just wanna scream "Who's my daddy" Giggle..sorry papa was just the thing to say on a sunny saturday afternoon.

Oh and speaking of Sunny Saturday afternoons. Who's bright idea was it to have this killer sunshine luring you outside to bask in it and then when you get outside it's like 30 below 0 WTF with that. Sun's out..it should be warm..this is Texas after all....

Have you noticed that when you click on a link ----------> Over there>>>>>>>>> yah over there on the side bar. (Good I knew you could find it) that it opens up in a seperate window. I just kinda figured that you all loved me sooooo much that it would just break your hearts if when you clicked on one of my links >>>>>>>>>> over there>>>>>>>>>> hehehe and if it closed my blog..you'd spend the rest of your day in a high state of depression, having to pop downers and alchol to get through the rest of your day. So it's just my little contribution to keep you out of AA and NA..No need to thank me...you all are my friends...I'm happy to do it.

Okay I know someone is definatly on drugs..did you see that new movie Darkness that's going to open on Christmas Day...oOooOOooOO it looks scary so don't cha know I'm gonna go see it and probably on Christmas day too..I LOVE SCARY MOVIES. The scarier the better.

Thanks for saying you love my name Papa..if you recal I said in a post somewhere that I used to belong to a club that historically recreates the middle ages...In that club my name is Aleksina Dominovia Bystrycha...Of course all the Russian was way to hard for most people to pronounce so at one point when the King was trying to say my name he made a decree that for everyone's sanity I would no be Lady Alekx..and so it stuck at Alekx...99% of the people I know and care about all call me Alekx and don't even know I have a birth name. So it's mine and I love it too...

Okay now to leave you...I'll leave a list of things about myself because I really did love papa's idea on his blog

I am a wife of 5 years
I met the house elf on the internet
We got engaged 5 days after we met in person
Married 5 months later (I'll blog that story sometime if anyone is intrested)
My husband is orginally from the Philippines and became a US Citizen about 8 years ago
I'm 40 years old
I'm 6'1"
I'll tell you my weight even...I'm about 240 but that is down from 498 so I don't care who knows it now.
I used to have blonde hair but it got ugly now I have red hair
Green eyes
I LOVE TO SCUBA DIVE (but nobody knew that did you)]
I used to work Law Enforcement, which is why you'll never see Burfica's childs name or photos on the web, I'm to paranoid and made her that way.
Ummmmmmm I used to ride a Harley...a 79 sportster...I miss riding one but I can only afford one expensive hobby right now and well did I say I LOVE TO SCUBA DIVE
I have 6 tattoos and can't wait to get another one
I have 2 dogs (Casper and Blade)
I have 2 cats (spook and smudge)
I have 1 bird (Manuk African Grey, Manuk is Philippino for Chicken I find it very amuzing)
I have one baby sister (burfica)
No brothers
Born and raised in Arizona now call Texas home
I'm German, French, Irish and Cherokee Indian... so that makes me a stubbron hot headed lover that will scalp you if I'm mad at you right

Anything else you'd like to know you may ask...I will probably answer in some form or another.
Hugs all and Happy Saturday

How is it....

that I can be walking on a perfectly flat surface and still fall flat on my face. I have to be the most ungraceful person that I have ever seen. I'm 40 frigging years old and still fall down on a regular basis. The other day the hubby and I were going out to my car he gets in the passanger side and I walk around the back of the Durango to go get in the drivers side and WHOMP..I'm down...on my hands and knees...he comes outta the passanger side going Hunni where did you go..comes around my side and sees me down on the ground. Now my wonder husband looks at me starts snorting laughter and says what the hell are you doing down there...Thanks love of my life.
And why is it everyone I know is always telling me what the hell are oyou doing down there.
I used to belong to this middle ages recreation club called the SCA and one day I was in service to the king and queen and was dressed in my best Irish outfit and I'm on my way to talk to the queen and tripped over a tent stake..as I went airborne with skirts foffed out around me I look up and I see this knight coming toward me...this is all in slow motion in my minds eye, this cute little knight is reaching toward me doing the very slow N o o o o o o o o o o o o Like he is going to catch me in mid air. My thought is oh my he's a very small guy and I'm a very large lady (before I lost alot of weight) then suddenly gravity took effect and FLOP face first into the dirt..I'm laying there with dust puffing out from around my nose and mouth thinking GAWD I hope Sir Andre is the only one that saw that..when I heard a lady scream and go OH She Fell...so now everyone is looking at me. I roll over trying to keep my dignity...which is hard to do with Arizona dust caked around your mouth and nose and your foot bleeding profusuly where the tent stake has cut you open...I look up and there is my best buddy in the whole world...and my dad...Well Lord Lann and my dad in unison as if they were twins look down at me and go "What the hell are you doing down there"
Sighhhh NOt the first time nor the last I'm sure I'm going to hear that line.
And that ladies and gentlemen is why I scuba dive...I have never fallen down at 60+feet.

On another note..I am not going to have any platic surgery to get all my loose flabby skin fixed. The write up from the doc says I can't dive for 6 to 8 months after the surgery....I DON'T THINK SO. There are priorities and 6 months off from diving is not one of them..Besides I can hide everything nice and tidy in my wetsuit. You just can't be sexy in full gear like the girls in the magazines.

Go look at Burfica's don't eat the tomatoes page..she's learned to link....I'm so proud of her. hehehehe
so she's got things on her side bar and with in a post...
Yayyyyyyy don't let her fool you she's not as dumb as she tries to make out being

Underwater Photos

Okay twice I've tried to make a post. The first time after a long long post I hit the power button with my foot and poofies it went away. Damnit.
2nd I got the post done and the hubby called and wanted me to take the queen angel fish off for now since I want to put that one into a contest so after the contest I'll post it again for you to see. she's pretty.

Sooner or later we'll put a bunch of the pics on a web site with a link for you to browse at your leisure. For now I know Kitten and Burfica have wanted to see some of the photos so these are for you my homies.. (hehehe)

Photo 1: Carribian Reef Shark about 12 to 15 feet long. We were diving with about 20 sharks. It was the most AWESOME experience I've had and I can't wait to do it again. Sharks are such a nobel creature and really have a bum rap from all the movies. I didn't get eaten or anything. Though I have a good healthy respect for them because I am not the top of the food chain while in the water with them..I will dive with sharks EVERY chance I get

Photo 2: Stone Fish...accidently posted this one twice but leaving it up anyway

Photo 3: Deleted Angel fish. hehehe you'll just have to wait to see her

Photo 4: The house elf with a large grouper..No this is not the fish that was smacked on the head and plummeted down to the depths..that was a Remora..I'll try to find a photo of one of those little basterds for you to see. This grouper last year had the top of it's head bitten off...and part of it's brain eaten so it is not afraid of man...It's very curious and comes around to see if anyone has any food. See the pin at the bottom under the hubby..that's the feeding pin. Where a guy with chainmail drops down and feeds the sharks. Our boat didn't do that, which I'm glad for...that's when people can get bit when the sharks are in a feeding frenzy.

Photo 5: That's a stone fish, or scorpion fish..very posinious. Let me see if I can help you find it.. Upper left you see the purple that looks like a plant..it is a plant but come to the right of that fuzzy plant and you'll see kind of a dark spot looks like an eye..it is...follow the kind of purple color around toward the left center where there is something that looks like a green rock. That is some coral..but just to the right of that green looking rock thing fanned out is a fin flat on the bottom of the ocean floor..follow that fin around back to the darker purple and black and that's the back part of the body. The green fuzzy looks like a plant almost in the center of the photo is the top fin on this fish. See him now. This is a very posinious fish..and very well camafloged. Unless they move you probably won't see one which is why we don't even touch rocks when diving so you don't get hurt.

Hope you guys enjoyed a couple photos.
Kitten I added you to AIM but I'm only on that in the evenings...I can sometimes open Yahoo pager during the day...I added you to that too.
I'll post more later.

Can you find the fish in here..It's posinious..called a stone fish Posted by Hello

Curse you Kitten

Unfortunately this seems to be a favorite in our household
Curse you Kitten
Santa's Sleigh

Answers and a question

Okay if anyone plays the answer/question game I'll wait a day or so and answer them all in a blog post.

Also does anyone have a receipe for low fat cheese enchaladas. That seems to be the only thing I can hold down without urping it back up.
It has to be low fat cuz I don't want to gain any of my 200+ lbs back.
Thanks

Cute Idea

Okay I got this From Pink Kitty and it was kinda cute so I'll do it here too....

Answer then ask per the directions below. Go on it could be fun....However I do reserve the right to plead the 5th or use counter acqusations to throw you off track. hehehehe

A) First, recommend to me:
1. a movie.
2. a book.
3. a musical artist, song, or album.

B) Ask me three questions. Ask me anything you want.

C) Go to your blog (if you have one), copy and paste this, and allow everyone to ask you anything.

If you are brave enough to get the answers go ahead and ask away. :-)

Blah blah blah

Have you ever had someone come talk to you...and they are so obnoxious that after awhile all you hear is blah blah blah blah kinda like the Charlie Brown cartoon when the teacher is talking to him. This chick comes in here...she's a Navy recruiter..and a very nice person but she has like A.A.D.D. and can't keep on one conversation so trying to follow a conversation with her is like trying to talk to a 18 month old. And in some instances I think it's easier to follow the thread of an 18 month olds conversation. And where the hell was this chick yesterday when I was so damn bored. I would have been so excited to see her yesterday. Today it was like Oh just please go away and come back NEXT Monday.

I've been watching people walk into the Quizino's today. First off there is no way I can ever eat there again after they did the rat commercial. I understand that it was supose to be singing hamsters I think...but my goodness it looked like Rabid rats. The scary part is some dumb ad executive thought that commercial was a good idea. The poor Quizino's manager keeps coming over offering to buy me lunch and I'm like DUDE...you are a nice guy but I ain't eating anthing where rats might have pooped...didn't you watch the commercial. He just walks out shaking his head laughing at me. Am I wrong on this. I just can't do it man..and I've eaten some weird stuff...I am married to a Philippino after all and they eat some really strange stuff.
Anyway back to the people walking into to this place for lunch....first off I have to wonder where these people are coming from. Some chick just walked in and she had on puke green sweats..with a BIG hole in the butt and she had on like Brown stripped underware. No kidding the hole in her sweats was so big you could see the brown stipes. Gawd I hope that was the material as I shudder to think where else brown stripes that size might have come from. She was also wearing a Neon purple t-shirt about 3 sizes to small with no bra and she had some boobs on her...Not only were her boobs pretty big but they were hanging down to her waist. It was scary...Now I wouldn't be making comments if she looked as if she maybe was poor and just couldn't afford any cloths and had saved up her money to treat herself out for a sandwich but she pulled up in a Lincoln Navigator. So GOOD LORD if you are gonna dress that way to come out of the house at least put on some lipstick and earrings..maybe a bag over your head so nobody knows who you are.
I've also seen 3 men walking toward the sandwich shop, touching themselves...Is there something about the melted cheese on the sandwichs that makes men want to masturbate before walking in to make their order. Hmmmmmm maybe I should reconsider the owners offer of lunch.

I have got to take a photo of my Rotweiller...he's been doing the cat box raiding thing..But this dog can't sneak in there and just eat out the poop..he's got to root around in the box to see if he's missed anything so he comes out with his whole nose covered in cat litter and trying to look innocent. I've never seen a dog this size try to act innocent..but I'll put my hands on my hips and look at him and say BLADE you've been in the cat box haven't you...I swear the dog looks around like he's whistling going what....ME????? in the cat box...I can't belive you'd make such acquasitions...all whilst he has the kitty litter beard and mostache. Then he wants to snuggle...ICK I don't think so mutt face.

For Jen...Check out www.premierdesigns.com it'll talk about the company I'm an independant distributor for. There are some photos of the jewelry on it..But they are all about people contact so won't sell on the internet..However if you or anyone else would like a catalog or information Drop me a note and I'll send one out. I do travel to do home shows, and my hostess earn a whole BUNCH of Free jewelry..so you don't need your hubby to buy you any. And it has a manufactures defect gurantee on it as well... Again if you or anyone else wants some info or a catalog let me know or e-mail me...

Anyone have Yahoo messenger...and want to trade id's to chat real time once in awhile...
This could be fun too...Pett and Burfica..yes I already have you..sheesh. LOL

I'm SOOOOO Bored

Have you ever been so board that you just feel like flinging yourself off of a skyscraper just becasue those few seconds before becoming a blood splat on the sidewalk will be quite exciting.
I'm that bored today...I've been thinking of different ways to relive the boredom however I'm so bored I can't think of anything. I'd even be up for seeing the herpes comercial. Gawd someone just impail me with a sword now.
This is my own fault...I told the owner of the scuba shop..we need to open on Mondays this month for the throng of Christmas shoppers. Gaaaaaaaaa...I guess they are at walmart circling around in the parking lot not buying their favorite scuba diver something. How rude (done in my best Jar Jar Binks voice...) SEE I told you I was bored. I'm doing bad Star Wars impersonations.
This is so bad I'm considering posting my cell phone number on my blog just to see who will call me. But since it's my business line as well (for my jewlery business) I shouldn't do that. Not that I wouldn't mind getting some obsence phonecalls from Papa or Baron just to spice up the day..it might interfer with the multitude of ladies calling needing new jewlery before Christmas. Yah like my phone is ringing off the hook.
I can't even get the damn house elf to answer the phone at work and talk to me. I called and he's like sorry I'm busy..click...I wonder if he truely thinks he's gonna get gratitious sex for that hang up when I'm banging my head on the counter.
This is so bad I've ALMOST called my mother 3 times today. Now don't get me wrong I LOVE my mother very much but she never goes out of her house to do anything so a converstaion with her goes something like..
Me: Hi Mom
Mom: Oh hi
Me: Well gee thanks I'm glad to talk to you too.
Mom: Oh I just got out of bed (it's like 3 in the afternoon)
Me: How come you slept for so long
Mom: Just felt like it
Me: Well how's everything?
Mom: Fine..I'm gonna go back to bed and lay down
Click
Man that would be so stimulating today.

Burfica won't even call me. The big bully.
Sigh......... if my brain ever stops leaking outta my ears and my left nostril I'll try to post something enjoyable for you to read.

Stuff and More Stuff

DRIVING FREE FOR ALL
Okay when did new driving rules get made or was there a law passed that says it's just a free forall out there and I missed the memo. I'm driving along this little 2 lane road a couple nights ago..Minding my own business which is a rareity for me. When I look up and see lights in my lane. Thinking to myself, well this is an intresting illusion on this curve that I've not seen before. It looks like the oncoming lights are in my lane. (I'm sure we've all seen those illusions on curves) Now keep in mind I'm barelling along at about 65 mph when suddenly both my husband and I realize at the same time it's not an illusion. Apparently some moron needing to make a left hand turn figured it would be a good idea to pull over into the oncoming lane traffic, of course so nobody would rear end him in his own lane, then he stops to read the street sign, which by the way Texas at least the Dallas Fort Worth area does not belive in putting up street name signs (I'm not kidding about this) before making his turn. Once realizing that these headlights are indeed in my lane I stomp on the brakes. Item of note here, 2001 Dodge Durangos do not like to have their brakes stomped on at 65. I'm not sure any vehicle likes this but my poor Durango was definatly bitching about this state of affairs. After much sliding, laying down of rubber, cussing, praying and wheel manuvering I skid by this idiot in MY lane and guess what...HE FLIPS ME OFF for almost hitting him. I am quite proud of myself that I did not get out of my vehicle and proceed to beat his ass to a bloody plup. However in hindsite I probably should have then I wouldn't have all this pent up anger. HOWEVER it is difficult to blog from a jail cell, so I guess I'm happy I refrained and went about my business.
PAPA that story was for you....

COMMERCIALS
Am I the only one or are some of the commercials on TV just a bit over the top. I mean I know Herpes is a problem but is there a reason I need to see a full 60 second commercial about some chick who seems to be sleeping around anyway saying how long she's been outbreak free. GAWD already.

The Victoria Secret Push up bra commercial. It makes the boobs look sooooooo good. However when you have the saggy grandma boobies nothing helps...and I think this commercial should not be giving false hope to regular society. I'm almost sure a commercial like this can lead to mass murder, sucide or just plain depression. Hmmmm I wonder if Victoria Secret has a solution to a vortex bra. (Always thinking of ways to help Burfica)

That Donald Trump Visa commercial where he drops the card into the trash bin and goes diving for it. I mean come on how bad off is the Trumpster that he has to sink to this sort of a commercial. Nuff said on this one.

I think the all time coolest commercial going on right now is the HP digital camera commercial where they go back and forth between real life and photos. Unfortunatly HP is a terrible camera to own (I need cameras that can be land and underwater and HP doesn't have the underwater features that I want) but man that commercial ROCKS...any one agree with that?

As far as cameras, and yes I'm going to post some underwater photos I've taken maybe as soon as tonight. I'm actually going to try to get them up on a web site soon so especially Kitten can go gander at her leisure when her world stops spinning. But for my birthday my hubby bought me an Olympius 5060 5.1 mega pixal camera that has a built in macro and super macro mode as well as the underwater housing. I LOVE this camera, but of course now need a wide angle lens for taking pics of sharks and hopefully soon Whale Sharks. MAN I can not wait to go to the Philippines to snorkle with Whale Sharks....I'm so excited I could almost pee myself. I also need one or 2 strobe arms with strobes for the extra lighting especially when taking pics of the big stuff. I also need to learn about using F-stops or something I have no clue about. I'm actually pretty stupid about photography but I'm slowly learning.
The very cool thing about the camera my hubby got me is the underwater houseing has all the buttons that the camera does so I should be able to start getting some really awesome photos. I already have some awesome ones, but I think all those are by accident. Can't wait till I do it on purpose.

Kay nuff for now
Happy Birthday Kitten, get better soon my new friend.
And for those asking, Ginney's Blog is on my side bar under Gin's Daily Haps.

Exhaustion Rules

Yesterday ended a very long week. I've had the mental issue of helping my friend who was layed off from work after 18 years as a Senior Vice President. I talked about that a post or 2 ago.
I had 3 jewlery shows this week. Which is a good thing, but I'm not a high pressure salesman so to me it's very mentally draining talking wiht a crowd of ladies who at first think you are just there to sale them something. That is my living and I do appreciate it if they will purchase something but that's not what I'm all about. Each lady is present at one of my shows for a reason, even if she can't afford to purchase anything I try to meet that need. Maybe she just needs to be out with some friends, or something else. I do a survey sheet at each of my jewelry presentations and I ask things like what was your favorite part of the show etc. I've had comments written in there with things ranging from your "silly puns" to Mary I was contimplating suicide today and just coming out tonight being with friends and having so much fun with your smile and laughter I no longer feel that way. It's a huge responsibility for me, and I just want to meet the need of each person at my shows, so after 3 days of doing them I'm wore out. But on top of all that I did make a GREAT profit....YAY team.

It's also been one of those weeks were your spouse does things that make you look at them and wonder what they will look like with their hair on fire using napalm..I have thus far resisted that urge. Besides since I no longer work for the military I don't have access to napalm... Just kidding...

We went out to On the Border to have dinner last night, it's intresting to people watch at a resturant, espceically a fun one like on the border...You know when people go out to a resturant it's like they leave their table manners at home. Or good GOD if they eat that way at home it's a scary thought. I was watching some lady at the next table. It was like a steam shovel on steroids shoving stuff into her mouth. I don't think a Physco squirl gathering nuts could have stored more in it's little cheeks then this woman had in her mouth. And to top it off she was telling a very animated story with her mouth this full. Even her date/husband looked a bit appaled. I wanted to go over and say Hunny...they aren't going to steal your plate away..slow down-there is plenty of food.
Then there are the ones on a date...the seductive eaters..OMG...Mexican food is not the food of choice when you are trying to get laid. But the chick that deep throated a Burrito Grande was pretty impressive. I have to much gag reflex to try that. Guys...is that sexy???? Deep throating a burrito? Okay I didn't need to regive myself that visual. Ick

After we got home from the resturant...I indulged in one of my few "just for me" passions. I took a nice long hot bath. When we built the house we upgraded to a 6' jacuzzi garden tub. I don't use it to often but last night I went in and got the water boiling hot..climbed in with a good book and some bubble bath and turned on the jacuzzi jets (mentionable note here..when using the jacuzzi jets do not use to much bubble bath or your bathroom looks like the washing machine exploded) I stayed in the tub for over an hour...but today my skin is all crapped out from the water being so hot.

I've not been sleeping to well lately so last night I deceided to take half an Ambien tablet. Like Papa I'm not big on taking sleep aids or anything but I just wanted some good rest. Now while it knocked my ass out into a coma like sleep..I was having some very physidelic dreams. The likes of which I have not experienced since my magic Mushroom/peyote cocktail days of partying. Things like riding in a purple and yellow limo, whilst watching a cat and zebra rendetion of dawn of the dead on a 80" screen tv in the limo.. Needless to say I didn't wake up feeling like I got any sleep. Oh well

I'm gonna go try to sneak in a nap if I can, but we are supose to get in the pool today for some more dive master training. Since it's cold and rainy outside I'm hoping our instructor will say lets do it next week.
Love ya all

Friday Freaks

Boy has it been a busy couple of days. My last post I was up late...well up late turned into up very early...I didn't fall asleep until 4:45 in the morning and had to be up at 8:30. Let me tell you when I don't get enough sleep I am the world's biggest bitch. And boy was I bitchy on all day Wednesday. I couldn't even stand my own damn company, and that is saying a lot because I am my own biggest fan.

Unfortunatly I was correct about the man who owns the scuba shop. He has been a Sr. Vice President at the company he works for over the last 18 years, goes into work on Monday, and that evening they told him that they were changing around the Vice Presidents as the new CEO of personal wanted a change and his services were no longer needed. What bastards. I'm glad I stayed around for the day with him. Poor man has had a very awful year and really needed a friend that day.

So here it is Friday...yayyyyyyyy, however I don't have normal weeks owning my own business and am booked up with Jewelry shows non-stop for the Christmas season. I had a show last night got home late..after unwinding it was rather late when I get in bed so I'm trying to sleep in this morning, and the phone rings. I of course answer it, figuring it was my handsome hubby saying hello or Burfica giving me an obsene phone call or should that be vice versa, but no it's a telemarketer. WTF I'm on the no call list.
I try to be polite to the person on the other end of the phone as they are usually just someone that is trying to earn a living, so this morning I nicely cut him off in mid sentance, something about time shares or something...and told him, I know you are doing your job and I respect that however I am on the no call list and would like for you to have my number removed from all call lists associated with YOUR company and the company you are making the calls for. This little F**$ing moron goes well okay mame but let me tell you about blah blah blah...I once again nicely told him to have my numbers removed and he started his blah blah blah again...Now I've become the raging hydra who's heads are multiplying at an alarming rate. I make the very loud snorting sound that you hear in most horror movies. My head begins to spin at a frantic rate around on my shoulders....and I swear I climbed through the phone to rip of this fellas head and use his skull for sex. Holy Crap...how dense can they be. I blew my stack at this guy big time. Now I'm all wore out and need a nap. Grrrrrrrrrr

My Doctors office called and told me I'm not dying or anything. That's always a good sign...but I did figure I was breathing, the heart was beating so things couldn't be to bad. He doesn't think I have another hernia, so that is also good but he told me my bowels were spasming..I'm thinking to myself if that's happening doesn't it just mean you have to go poop...but apparelty it's something he's not seen in someone else (go figure me the over acheiver has something WEIRD) so anyway I'll be on medication awhile to see if that helps me not feel like or actually hurling everything that goes in my mouth. I'm so happy I can share all these visuals with my new family...hehehehehe

WTF is it with the cops in my city and there is a little fender bender...the car can move under it's own power...and be moved out of the main flow of traffic, but the wonderful men in blue (and I do have the upmost respect for police) but these guys have to stand around during RUSH hour with all lanes blocked waiting for a damn wrecker when all they have to do is move the car 5 feet under it's own power into a turn lane opening up the main flow of traffic. BUT noooooooo they wait for the wrecker...2 frigging hours to get 8 miles. Sighhhh maybe I'm tired and bitchy again.
