What the Hell?....

...That's what Aaron is saying right now as our Comcast Cable is skipping through his english narrated program about someone's house....I have NO IDEA! "OOOO Basil! He inherited a Castle..." hmph, that's interesting.

So I was on the Taylor's Blog today. Check it out if you have time eandstay.blogspot.com. Erin is prego and needed a nap this weekend, thank God she got it! I needed a nap today. I think I jinxed myself last night when I was "loathing monday", I should NOT have done that becuase today ROYALLY SUCKED! There is nothing like being so tired that you literally can't make it through with out that oh-so-invigorating cup of Joe and then being short staffed, and told to your damn work "SELL SELL SELL" and not to get any of it done becuase your Fing phone won't stop ringing. I felt bad for my receptionist today, because by 11:00 I was answering "you've got to be kidding me!" I can't wait for my other collegue to be back tomorrow and Thursday I get to sleep in an hour (yippee!)....just to leave an hour later (SUCK!).

Well I bought my very first item on ebay! I am such a dork. I went to my dad's house so he could show me "the tricks" to getting what you want on ebay. If we had a video camera on us you would have been laughing so hard (especially Sara Lunde!). Let me just tell you how it went down. My dad has this timed to a tee. This man is amazing he sits there until there is like 3 minutes left in the auction, then he starts refreshing the page as he is watching his MOPAR clock with. When the thir had hits at 1/4 hour incriment he hits refresh, to time 1. how long it takes the page to reload (for your purchase of corse...) and two to see and what point the auction will end. So if the you hit refresh at the 12 #1 the page refreshes at 1 second after the 1 you know that is where you will need to be. and #2 the time on the "end auction" counter says 2 minutes 34 seconds you know that you need to be....somewhere....I have already forgot and if I thought about it more...I still wouldn't care...welll maybe a little bit. The point is we were both hovered over the computer he is talking about bidder n***r like "she" is out to get us (of course it is a she because duh it's a pair of women's shoes....I thought he, but we will go with his instinct) and I have seriously butterflies, getting all clamy and sweaty like it is the end of the world and we have to get these dang BCBG Shoes or it will all be over (...oh just wait....we lost one auction that was hilarious!) so here we go it is down to the 3 on the clock and my dad starts clicking the button, it doesn't work we have go back and then click again and then.....WE WIN! but no time to celebrate because we got to get the white shoes too that n***r is bidding on (that biatch~haha). I won't take you through the painful loosing details, but I guess I didn't "click the button enough times" (isn't one time all you need?) so we lost. you should have seen my dad. He SHOOTS up out of his chair "DANG IT!!!!!!" he's all mad, it was hilarious! I was all "dad, it's not a big deal, I didn't want to pay $30 for those shoes anyway, and there will be more".

I will just leave you with that totally sad sad sad truth to my life! hahaha! Good luck Tuesday, Let's hope it is much better than Monday....

Posting on Ebay

...SO...I just listed my first item for sale on ebay...what the F! That took So friggin long! They don't make it easy, but like Aaron says, I only had to do it once. Even the Easy as "1-2-3" wasn't that easy considering I had to link up my paypal account, ebay had to call me, and I had to give them another friggin credit card! Oh well its over. Thank God!

So you are probably wondering what I listed?..No, ok then, I don't care either (but for you inquisitive people, it is a "gently used" cell phone battery.- will it sell...probably not....so I just wasted a whole dang hour of my life- I'll get over it....i guess).

I am bidding for the like, maybe 5th time in my life (have had the ebay account for about 7 years) on two pairs of SUPER CUTE! BCBG Girls shoes, and already I am out bid on the pair that I really want! dang! Ok so should I bid $25.00? Probably would be a good idea...but I will play the game (ok my DAD of all people taught me "the game" of ebay...I feel way out of touch!) and wait till the last minute to put in my more than likely, $30.00!!! dollar bid, to win the shoes and then find them for $15.00 in Marshall's next week. That's life right?- SUCK! The black ones are cute, so hopefully I get those for $5.00 - SWEET! so life balances out in ebay land...well kind of.

Well this weekend was another bust, except for the fact that....what the heck am I listening too - country- hold on gotta change this-betohven (sp whatever!)- carrie- more classical- wierd stuff-Beastie Boys- DONE!...where was I? Oh right... I WON THE FRIGGIN BAKING CONTEST! My Ugglier than heck brownies beat out, carrot cake, banana whoopy pies and some totally awesome butterscotch layered something! Ladies and Gentlemen (who am I kidding no one reads this)...-To Me- Presentation counts for NOTHING when you reach the heart of men through their mouths....it all ends up in the same place.

Alrighty peeps (just kidding I hate that too)- me (remember no one reads this) there sure is a whole lot funnier stuff than that crap I just blogged about -
peace out yo!-

p.s. I hate mondays and it's only sunday. Is that a bad way to start the week?
