Blue, black and purple

Yeah, Im looking at this bruise on my knee from about.......2-3 weeks ago and it still looks nasty. It was a big bruise though and I did hit my knee pretty hard. What happened? Well, I was walking behind my machine at work and I just happened to nitice a spider walking across the floor right in front of my foot. It was not little spider. It was pretty good size! So I did the "OMG! A SPIDER! dance" (screaming and very quick foot work to move out of it's way). One of my co-wokers came up to see what was wrong and I poited at it and said "kill it!" several times.....Okay before I go any further you have to understand that I am deathly terriffied of spiders. If I see one I will sit on the other side of the room under a blanket, panicking and throwing things at it until someone comes and kills it. If no one is there I have to force myself to go at it with a shoe or a broom panicking the whole time. Well, my co-worker said "Oh, I saw him crawling over there (he pointed to a certain spot so many feet away) a couple minutes ago and hurried him along so he wouldnt get stepped on". I could have shot him lol! I noticed my friend, Dodie, comming toward me and thought she was going to step on it, but she bent down, grabed it by the legs and tossed it at me (just joking around) so I turned and hurried as fast as I could away and when i turned to run I ran my knee right into a pipe in my machine. It hurt bad! It was so sore for days and turned blue, black, purple, red and even had a little greenish color to the outsides of it. And it is still there. It doesnt look as bad as it did, but it is there.
Lately my supervisor's son has shown some interest in my friend who also works where I work. The supervisor's son just went from 2nd shift to 1st and has been talking to my friend. Our supervisor doesnt like this much and has been down my friend's back for the past week.......for that particular reason we are thinking. Our supervisor doesnt really like us that much. Me, because Im different and I dont kiss her butt. My friend, Steph, because.....well, Im guessing that our supervisor sees Steph as a weakling. No offence to Steph, but she is weak in some areas when it comes to our supervisor. She just doesnt want to get fired and who can blame her. She has a kid to take care of. She has also been having some major health problems and has had to take time off work because of it. And now since my supervisor's son is showing interest in Steph, the supervisor doesnt like her even more. Her and her son have even talked about it (Ive heared them) and she goes on "well, she has too many health problems. She isnt our religion". Just excusses. Besides, Steph has a boyfriend. Steph has left it up to me to save her. She doesnt want to hurt the son's feelings or be mean so if I notice him talking to her I am innocently going tosay something about her and her boyfriend comming over for a cook-out and hope that works. If the guy starts after me....well, Im single so Im screwed on a boyfriend excuse lol. Ive had one horrible boyfriend and one awful boyfriend so far so Im not really interested right now :)

NEED SOME A/C IN HERE!

Wow, it is around 90 degrees here in ohio, people and I am baking in this house! The heat has just knocked me out. I was supposed to clean up the house today after work, because my Nanny and Papaw (Mum's parents) are going to be here so I started cleaning and I got really hot and over did it and fell asleep on the couch where I was tormented constantly by my brother calling to see if his laundry was dry yet. Mum came home and she was pissed because there was still a little work to be done around the house and I was sleeping. Shes lucky. She got to be in air conditioning all day at her work place. Im stuck in the house (which is like an oven) with no air conditioning and Im slowly cooking plus I got a migrane comming on and thats not cool. I really feel sorry for my dog in this heat. He a little poodle and has that thick, curly poodle wool.....which is getting a bit long and I really need to take him to the groomer and get that cut off. I found my lost snake.......and I feel like an ass lol. I called my brother (who was at his friend's house) and appologized to him and he actually took it very well. I didnt raise his voice or call me names or anything. He was just like "Yeah, thats cool. Dont worry about it. It was nothing". Dad (of all people) found it. Im still not sure as to how exactly it got aout because I make sure that the lid is closed and the rocks I was keeping on the corners of the lid were in place, but it must have just found the tiniest little place to get out of. I was outside on the phone and Mum started yelling "Theres a snake in the bathroom! Come get it!" so I ran into Mum and Dad's bathroom and Dad was standing there pointing at it all like "I was sitting down to use to bathroom and I looked over and I thought it was a rubber snake so I was going to pick it up. Then it moved! What kind of snake is that? He's funny looking". Dad wasnt too upset about the snake. I went out to the pet shop the next day and bought like.....seven locking clips for the tank lid to keep it in place, plus I put some strips of Gorilla Tape on the sides.

Mirror Mirror

Days and weeks of suffering and this has come to pass.
She looks into her mirror and is instantly aghast.
She sees a hollow skeleton with pale skin stretched across.
She looks so frail and fragile from all the weight shes lost.
She was a vibrant spirit looking for something so grand.
Now shes just a fading light and all this for a man.
He will not love her, never love her all of this she sees.
Her heart breaks down and tears well up. She drops down to her knees.
Once a beauty now a walking corpse to look upon.
Look into her face you'll see her light is almost gone.

Whoa......

I got a call from my friend some days ago and her husband had caught a garter snake and wanted to know if I would care for it. On closer inspection of the snake I noticed it had a bite in its little tail. Im guessing something probably tried to eat it so Im caring for it right now.
Something tragic has befallen another one of my friends. A man that she grew up with was killed by a train (if youve read the Chronicle Telegram paper [Ohio] it was in there). Come to find out that the man was also my ex's best friend so him and my friend (his sistser) are both realy torn up about it. The man was just in a drunk rage and wasnt paying attention to the train moving in front of him and ran (on foot) right into it. What a horrible way to die! Ive been praying for them and Ive even tried to get a hold of my ex to see how he is holding up, but so far I havent heared anything from him. The really sad thing is that my ex seen it happen so those moments are burned into his mind. I just hope he doesnt try anything stupid like lock himself up in his room with a six-pack.
