Moonlit Jazz

“La Bomba” by Ricky Martin

I just had to blog while this song just happens to play on my Launch radio station. Yeah baby! I love this song, it makes me groove. LOL! Good thing no one can see me. 😉

Es una bebida
Que va cambiando tu vida
Una gotita de nada
Te vuelve loca
Loca divertida
Agua de risa
Con unas gotas de rosa
Y una aceituna sabrosa
Y en lo caliente
Esa es la bomba

Muevete mamita….

THE TITLE OF THE POST

“listen to your heart, it won’t lead you wrong”

I like that quote so much that I might use it for my next layout. Someone said it to me and I thought it was totally sweet. 🙂

Actually, that was yesterday. 😉

TV STUFF

Touching Evil – Like we need another freakin’ show! But this one was rather good. I liked it. I think I wouldn’t mind watching it. And hey, it might actually have a life on tv since it’s showing on the USA Network.

MISC MUSINGS

Oh look, my friend is online! I bet he won’t say hi. 😛

I was sooo sick Sunday night! I think I ate something bad somewhere. My stomach hurt so bad and I had a fever. I went to bed and woke up yesterday feeling all right. Twas weird…

I finished doing our party invitations and realized that I forgot to make a card out to my grandmother! I suck! Now I need to find her address…

COUNTDOWN TO FREEDOM

Just nine more days of work.

Monday was all right. People are coming up to me, asking if I’m really leaving. The most common question is “What are you going to do?” They all think I’ve found something better. When I tell them I haven’t, some are a little shocked and others are understanding.

I know I shouldn’t be TIRED of working. People work all their lives. But I am tired of this job in the jail. I don’t like all the crap that’s going around right now. Like the whole threat of a layoff. Yes, the number is 100 Sheriff Technicians (that’s what I am for nine more days) to be laid off in about a month. Some people think it’s just political. Some people say the sheriff is really going to do it this time. Either way I shouldn’t really care. Except it could affect my friends. I hope it doesn’t…

HAVE TO ADD

Omigosh, he IM’d me! LOL!

But this is of more interest to me: Chavez deal appears close

Dare I hope?…

DREAMS AGAIN

I dreamt that I was trying to have my picture taken with Donnie Wahlberg! How weird is that? Anyhoo, I had my arm around him and he had his cheek pressed to mine, but the person taking the picture (with my camera) couldn’t figure out how to take the picture! I was like, “Just point and shoot!” I didn’t know the chick and Donnie didn’t really look like himself. (You know, I knew it was him, but it didn’t look like him.) He was too tall and had a bit of a tummy. LOL! 😛

MISC RAMBLING

As much as I ADORE the present layout, I’m itching to revamp! But do I do a Greg layout featuring the lovely new headshots? Or do I try my hand at Mulder layout featuring the LOVELY shot from MLB Photo Lady? Oh, dilemnas! Which man do I feature? And then I’m not sure what kind of layout I want to do. Centered? Flushed right like this or flushed left? Tables, DIV layers, IFrames?

A’s 5, Diamondbacks 9 (Sunday)

Redman got ROCKED! Grrrr! But hey, that’s why it’s just spring training. 😛

A’s rally late to top Giants

“Don’t Run” by Jordan Knight

I got ten new William Gregory Lee headshots. Groovay! And I must say, he looks very good in all of them. 😉

A DREAM

Just before the dogs woke me up, I had a baseball/Mulder dream. I was at a game or spring training or something and Mulder was on the side throwing. I was taking pictures of my sister (why?! I know not) while he was wrapping stuff up. He had a sleeveless t-shirt on (why?!) and was showing off his muscles (LOL!) to some girls. And because this is a dream, I went up to him and gave his arm a little squeeze. We started talking, he took my hand and checked out my green stone claddaugh ring. Before I left him, I gave him my card and told him to tell Zito hi. LOL!

Dreams are so weird!

MISC RAMBLINGS

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Jeff! Not that he’ll read this or ever see this, but I had to send wishes his way.

And a belated Happy Birthday to Ms. Miller. I should email her. 😛

TV STUFF

Survivor – We didn’t watch it until last night. I don’t want to watch anymore! My boy, my dear Colby has been booted! 🙁 I think he played just a bit too cocky this time around. But damnit, I wanted him to at least last longer than Jerri. She annoys the hell out of me!

Ah Colby, why did it have to be this way? Now I don’t know who to cheer for! Ethan? He’s been so lucky to last this long. Can that luck last to the end? And wouldn’t that just piss off the “losers” who want to win? LOL! If not Ethan, then I don’t know who I want to win. Oh well.

American Idol – Why did Paula put that Leah girl through? I don’t know why, but that girl just annoys me! I would have thought that Paula would have put the cute boy through. 😉 I’m glad Mr. Pen Salesmen got through even though he’s not the greatest singer. He gave it his all and it paid off. Plus I thought he did a decent job with the Elvis song. 😉 I like the Matthew Rogers fella. He’s got a boomin’ voice. 😀 But really, LaToya London is the most pro out of the group and she’s got a beautiful voice and a great look.

Nashville Star – Even though I think American Idol is a lot of fun, the real talent is on Nashville Star. Those people have something, whether it’s a voice, songwriting skill, or total guts, they are ten times above the American Idol cut. Of course, Nashville Star allows working performers. None of the contestants are just off the street. Most of them have performed. My favorites right now are George Canyon (he’s got such an Elvis-like voice) and Marty Slayton (we saw her singing backup to George Strait). Oh, and the Irish guy is cool too. 😉

Oakland’s Zito shines under the lights

I must give a HUGE THANK YOU to MLB Photo Lady for the Mulder shot. Awww! And Getty Photo Guy, thank you so much for trying. 😀

COUNTDOWN

So, just ten more days of work for me. Ye gods! I just want it to END. I’m tired of wearing the polyester, I’m tired of feeling sick when I’m in the office (the air in there sucks!), and I’m tired of the staff dining food. Blah! 😛

My “exit interview” is sometime next week. The person who interviews me has to fill out an employee termination interview report, as follows (along with what I would LIKE to answer and what I will probably answer):

1. Reason for exit My answer will be PERSONAL.
2. Does employee have a new job? Why does the employee think it is a better job than his/her position with the County? My answer: No, I do not have a new job. And if I did, it’s not your business why I think it’s better than my position now.
3. Evaluate employee’s comments on the following:
Supervision Most of them are decent
Fellow employees Worked well with most
Work conditions Horrible
Agency personnel policies Lacking
County benefits The best thing next to the paycheck
4. What do you think is the real reason for leaving (give as much detail as possible) NONE OF YOUR FREAKIN’ BUSINESS! Do they really have to try and figure that out?
5. Based on your discussion with the employee, what changes in Agency or County policies would satisfy the employee? How about informing the employees about the department’s plans? How about reworking payroll so that we don’t have all these mistakes? How about a little respect for the little people?!
6. General comments of interview Hopefully he writes that I was pleasant and honest.

But will I be honest? We shall see…
