Yesterday, I felt so sick I was in bed till 3:30, and back in it not too long after. Today I felt so sick, I stayed home from work. I worked half the day from home, so at least I didn't waste the whole day. I still feel kinda gross.... but in about an hour I'm gonna pop my last dose of Tylenol Flu (nighttime please!) and drift off to sleep!

Other than the whole sickness thing my weekend was productive.... around the house anyway. I wanted to get some paperwork done at the office, but that didn't work out as planned.

Alrightie! It's the middle of a thunderstorm and GOOOOOOD sleeping weather!

:-)

She's Baaaa-ck!

Me. But Christina Aguilera too!

Can I just say.... hell yeah!

Yeah. Yeah.
Ooh, Ooh, Ohh

If you see me walking down the street
Or in the pages of your magzine
Looking just a little differently
Showing off a softer side of me

They saying I'm looking like a lady
They saying that love is going to change me
But don't be fooled by everything you see
Gotta let the naughty in me free

There's a woman inside of all of us
Who never quite seems to get enough
Trying to play by the rules is rough
Cause sooner or later something's going to erupt

Cause I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (still got it)
And if you want some more sexy
Still got that freak in me
I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (oh yeah)
And if you want some more sexy
Still got that freak in me

No matter what you thinking of me, still dirrty
And if you're still rolling with me, still got it
No matter what you thinking of me, still dirrty
Still got that freak in me

Why is a woman's sexuality
Always under so much scrutiny?
Why can't she do exactly as she please
Without being called a million things?

They say I'm not the girl they used to know (used to know)
'Cause I don't always wear revealing clothes (oh)
But don't be fooled a moment, I can't hold (I can't hold)
I'm letting loose, 'cause then I'd probably choke (don't you know)

There's some women out there who talk and stare
Who never seem to let down their hair
Like to past judgement, but they're just scared
And don't know what they're missing, so they better beware

'Cause I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (ooh)
And if you want some more sexy
Still got that freak in me
I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (oh yeah)
And if you want some more sexy
Still got that freak in me (oh yeah)

No matter what you thinking of me, still dirrty
And if you're still rolling with me, still got it
No matter what you thinking of me, still dirrty
Still got that freak in me

Don't tell me to behave
'Cause I'll never play that game (no)
Don't tell me what to do
'Cause I'll never be uptight like you
Don't look at me that way
'Cause I ain't never gonna change
And if you're talking about my life
You're only wasting your own time

If I want to wear lingere outside of my clothes
If I want to be erotic in my own videos
If I want to be provacative, well that ain't a sin
Maybe you're not comfortable in your own skin

I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (in me)
And if you still want some more sexy
Still got that freak in me
I still got that nasty in me
Still got that dirrty degree (in me)
And if you still want some more sexy
Still got freak in me

Ooh, yeah.
Hey, hey, hey.
Ohh. Ohh. Ohh. Ohh.

'Night!

Fri, 02 Jun 2006 01:49:03 GMT

Oh, what a great day! First of all, HAPPY JUNE everyone! Do you believe it's JUNE already. How fast is this year going, it's crazy!

I had a wonderful work day today. There was so much accomplished, I love days like that! I love feeling organized. Phew. Tomorrow should be a breeze with all the extra work I got done today. Which...

...should start off my weekend right! OC Friday night till Sunday afternoon. Fun times ahead I'm sure! Never a dull moment, that's a given... as usual.

But before that happens... work, happy hour, the drive... Ah, yes.

::thinks:: Must visit Kiera and Company. Must visit Kiera and Company. ::thinks::

Alright - Have a great weekend everyone!

TWO DAYS...

Wed, 31 May 2006 01:54:38 GMT

...in a row! Holy Shit.

Well, getting up to run this morning did NOT happen. I got about 2 hours of sleep because it's so damn hot in this apartment that I kept waking up sweating. Gross. So tonight should be fun since it got up to 95 today! 95!

Tomorrow is Beer and Bocce at Rodgers - I wish it was 95 tomorrow - HELLO POOL! 85 is warm enough for that anyway - so whether it's pool or hot tub, I'm there. :-)

So, I went to Old Navy to return the 2 pair of Guachos that were too big. They had the size I needed is every color EXCEPT the white which I wanted. So I ended up getting the green, and a pair of white cropped (which technically I guess I already have white cropped, but they ARE different!) and also a khaki skirt which is quite cute actually. Oh, and let's not forget the maddness. I bought 8 pairs of flip flops! I just love 'em. And 2/$5?? Come on now! This Old Navy (unlike the one at home) actually had the flippies organized! So needless to say, there was no refund to my account...

Denise - I did get your message. I am so deeply sorry about Mia. I will talk to you soon. Love you. Miss you tons.

Alright - I am going to TRY this sleep thing. Hopefully that all works out.

OH! Finally got a hold of Matthew. OC weekend is all set. According to him the Scoper boys are "hot" this year. Let's hope so, for my sake. :-) Oh, and I can hardly wait to meet his new girlfriend. Well, THIS won't be awkward at ALL.... ::shakes head::

I got spammy.

Tue, 30 May 2006 01:50:18 GMT

Dre and I just got back from a walk. Which was nice - we haven't walked since Orlando. So hopefully we'll get back in the habit of doing that at night.

TOMORROW. Tuesday already, thank God. This week should go by fast.

Tomorrow - work, tanning, errand: gotta return some things to Filen's and Old Navy. Oh, and I should run to the dry cleaners to get my new suit pants hemmed.

Wednesday - work, tanning on lunch. Beer and Bocce at Rodger's after work.

Thursday - work, tanning, packing.

Friday - work, tanning on lunch(?), Ocean City baby!

Saturday/Sunday will be spent on the beach... NICE!!!

So needless to say - we're looking forward to the weekend. And the damn work week didn't even start! ::sigh::

I'm thinking I want to change the theme of my journal for the summer. These dark colors aren't working to fit my mood. Hmmm... I have an idea of look and feel, but I need a good "theme" or song or something... I'm sure something will come to me. Hopefully I'll get that up soon! :-)

Alright - I must go to sleep now. Waking up earlier than usual because I want to start running BEFORE work so it's not as hot. That's the plan at least. Let's see how THIS works. LOL.

Kie - this summer is filling up, but let's do a NYC day/Phili weekend and then you guys need to visit for a Baltimore weekend! The Mr. and Mrs. should come too! ;-) Love and miss you guys!

This is SOOO my song right now.

Mon, 29 May 2006 21:32:16 GMT

Somewhere inside my evolution
Karmically I seek retribution
Looking for love in physical beauty
Desire is the drug of the bourgeoisie
And now I try to intellectualize
Like a glimmer of good in a bad man's eyes
I am consumed by the flesh haunting me
I know temptation taunts the empty

So pour yourself over me
Until there's nothing left to see, yeah yeah
Because I like the way you move in the dark
I like the tension, the tension and the spark

The decadence of giving into desire
Creates such entropy within
Looking for love in spiritual faces
Blind to the art of fabrication
I'm like a baby sucking mama's milk
Want to drink my fill and then some
Leave me alone
I always thought I was better than this
But temptation tempts the temptee

Pour yourself over me
Until there's nothing left to see, yeah yeah
Oh, because I like the way you move in the dark
And I like the tension, the tension and the spark, oh
Because I like the way you move in the dark, oh
You know I like the tension, the tension and, the tension and the spark, oh

This physicality
Shifting me chemically
Such power over me
It's just desire
I know it's treachery (shifting me chemically)
I know it's just skin deep (such power over me)
I know I should resist
I'm just too tired
Too tired

There's just one thing missing
One thing missing here is
Love

I like the way you move in the dark
I like the tension, the tension and the spark (so pour yourself over me)
You know, I like the way you move in the dark (so pour yourself over me)
You know, I like the tension, the tension and, the tension and the spark

So pour yourself over me
(There's just one thing missing)
(One thing missing)
Until there's nothing left to see
(There's just one thing missing)
(The tension and the spark)
(One thing missing)
(So pour yourself over me)
There's just one thing missing
One thing missing
(So pour yourself over me)
(I like the tension, the tension and the spark)
(There's just one thing missing)

One thing missing here is...
Love

A real entry.

Mon, 29 May 2006 21:16:24 GMT

Look! What is this!? Dana is updating!

Ok - to put it simply, my life is just weird right now. WEIRD. That's the only word to explain it actually.

So a few catch up things....
- still lovin' the job. Busy, busy, busy. Yes, I've turned into that work-aholic that I never wanted to be, but I love it. Half the time, I don't even feel like I'm working. Which is good, seeing as how I'm working about 12 hours a day!

- still single. Dreadfully. Not that it's a BAD thing, but I'm getting old people. As my mother sees it, I'm pretty much dried up. Yep, thanks mom. See - some things don't change.

Alright. New things. Last week I witnessed Jay and Coll getting married. ::sigh:: I cried alot. I am just so, so, so very happy for them.

On that note, I got to thinking about next year when Kiera and Steve get hitched. Holy hell. I am going to be a blubbering little baby. I mean, those 2 are both my best friends and watching them get married TO EACH OTHER is just a craziness that I can't even comprehend right now!

What else... what else...

Pretty much it. I work. I eat. I sleep.

This has been a beautiful holiday weekend. Too bad there was nowhere to go to use a pool! Next weekend is OC with Drea to vist the boys. And the next week I think Eric and I are going to the beach for... the beach! You can never have too much beach!

Ok - well, the real entry is coming to and end. Maybe I'll update more.... ::sigh:: Yeah, that would be nice.

FOUR.

Sun, 30 Apr 2006 22:19:45 GMT

Dre's friend, Kari, got married yesterday! Congrats to her and Russ!! :-) Anyway, Dre and I clean up good, huh?

Later that night - Col's Bachelorette Party! Great fun - even sober! God, I miss Kiera so much. She makes me miss college - and I haven't missed that in awhile.

Ok - so I was sober. That's about it! LOL.
Just got off the phone with Kiera - yea she feels pretty lousy today. That's really no surprise.
Anyway - last night was great fun - so glad to be invited. CAN'T WAIT till the wedding. Which I have to take a personal day for.... I keep forgetting. Damnit. Tomorrow. Someone remind me??? :-)

Ok - um...
It's a wash day. Clean, clean, clean.
Dre's "Birthday Extravaganza" starts when she returns Friday. Craziness! It should be a wild weekend. With lots of friends coming in for the event. Including my brother and his friends! :-D

Well, lots more to do before my shows come on. Later everyone!

:-D

Wed, 19 Apr 2006 10:58:11 GMT

Yea! Another year of paid LJ.
Why, when I haven't updated in so long?? Who can tell? :-)

Anyway - on my way to work early.
Dinner with Dad tonight at some fancy restaurant.

AND American Idol results!!
I didn't think I'd say this so soon - but Kellie should go based on last night....

You Are 22% Selfish

In general, you are a very giving person who treats others very well.
But at times, you insist on getting your way - when it matters most to you.

Mon, 27 Mar 2006 01:58:09 GMT

Desperate Housewives tonight! WooHoo!

Grey's Anatomy is NOT new, but I'll end up watching it. McDreamy is dreamy people!
Today was kinda boring - as most days are lately. The biggest excitement was meeting up with Eric at the office to work on our presentation. But as I said, I'm happiest at work so it would figure.

Mom called while I was there - called me a work-a-holic. If the shoe fits... (Oooo... shoes....) :-)
Anyway - talked to dad later and when we go out to dinner on Wednesday, we're going to go car shopping. Not that I can afford that. But little ol' Shazam is not gonna make it much longer and I don't wanna be stuck on the side of the road when she decides to give up on me!

SO - we'll see what we can do. :-/

Alright - time to get out to the living room. It's almost that time and I want food!

I made brownies for work tomorrow! I'm going to be so loved. :-)

OUT.

OK - so it's been a month.

Sun, 26 Mar 2006 00:42:17 GMT

Wow. LJ must be feeling really neglected right now.

My life - work, work... oh, work. It's a good thing I love my job.

I'm not going to go on and on to even TRY to go thru the last month because it's just not worth it. I'm really, really, really gonna try to be better. I've been just in a wierd place lately and not quite sure how to get out of it.

Ironically, the place I'm happiest is work. Which IS a good thing - but I wish I could be as happy after 5pm as I am while I'm working. ::shrug::

Yeah well.

April.... RENT... Easter... Warm weather... Family... Friends... Weddings...
All things to look forward to!

Damn, I need to catch up on Friends Entries too...

Depressed.

Sat, 25 Feb 2006 17:31:03 GMT

Well, I was in a relatively good mood.

Nope... gone.

I figured out that I'm broke. I mean, of course I've known - but yeah...
It's a good thing I LOVE my job and am generally happy in my life, otherwise I would start crying right now. At least my emotional breakdowns of the past few years can be calmed by that!

SO... going to have to start looking for a part-time job. I really don't want to, but I can't afford to eat as of right now. I wish I would have left Kohl's on better terms now, I could go back there a start at a realatively high $/hour. But I can say with pretty much authority that that bridge is burned... at least at that store. Maybe one night a week and Sundays or something. That's at least gas and food. I think I might have to go back to the ramon noodle diet.

OK... I think I'm going to lay down now and drown my sorrows in a Pepsi and bowl of noodles! LOL.

God, this sucks.

Scary how pretty much true this is...

the Peacemaker
Test finished!

you chose BX - your Enneagram type is NINE.

"I am at peace"

Peacemakers are receptive, good-natured, and supportive. They seek union with others and the world around them.

How to Get Along with Me

If you want me to do something, how you ask is important. I especially don't like expectations or pressure.
I like to listen and to be of service, but don't take advatage of this.
Listen until I finish speaking, even though I meander a bit.
Give me time to finish things and make decisions. It's OK to nudge me gently and nonjudgmentally.
Ask me questions to help me get clear.
Tell me when you like how I look. I'm not averse to flattery.
Hug me, show physical affection. It opens me up to my feelings.
I like a good discussion but not a confrontation.
Let me know you like what I've done or said.
Laugh with me and share in my enjoyment of life.

What I Like About Being a Nine

being nonjudgmental and accepting
caring for and being concerned about others
being able to relax and have a good time
knowing that most people enjoy my company; I'm easy to be around
my ability to see many different sides of an issue and to be a good mediator and facilitator
my heightened awareness of sensations, aesthetics, and the here and now
being able to go with the flow and feel one with the universe

What's Hard About Being a Nine

being judged and misunderstood for being placid and/or indecisive
being critical of myself for lacking initiative and discipline
being too sensitive to criticism; taking every raised eyebrow and twitch of the mouth personally
being confused about what I really want
caring too much about what others will think of me
not being listened to or taken seriously

Nines as Children Often

feel ignored and that their wants, opinions, and feelings are unimportant
tune out a lot, especially when others argue
are "good" children: deny anger or keep it to themselves

Nines as Parents

are supportive, kind, and warm
are sometimes overly permissive or nondirective

George!?

Tue, 21 Feb 2006 01:48:11 GMT

Ok - come on. Really now?

George?!

McDreamy and McSteamy... and she sleeps with GEORGE!

I know they're friends, I know he's sweet - but, COME. ON!

Alright, I'm done with that!
Work took a turn in a different direction today. Spent almost all day doing legal research and not really doing anything to wrap up what needed to be done - on my list anyway. Maybe I'll go in early tomorrow. Get some stuff done.

Dre comes home tomorrow. Her brother and his wife are having a BOY! So happy for them!

Um... Yeah, that's it really. Except...

RENT TOMORROW!
Eric and I are running to Best Buy on lunch. Yea! So you know what I'm doing after work, before American Idol, right?? :-) Well, actually, I might not get to. I told Eric and Becca I'd help them out studying for the licensing test. What can I say, I'm a good friend! That, and they can't afford to fail this time!

Ok - time to finish up my wash and watch a movie while falling asleep. Yes, it's before 9 - maybe I'll be able to get outta bed the FIRST time the alarm goes off tomorrow!

...oh who am I kidding...

OUT.

Let's chat...

Sun, 19 Feb 2006 21:21:57 GMT

Alright, it's been awhile. So as I wait for my lunch to get done and my movie to start - let's chat.

I'm good, how are you all??

Work is absoulutely crazy. Good crazy, but crazy.
It scares me sometimes how much I love my job, because I never thought I'd be this happy. And what is that saying - that 'as soon as you get what you want, you have something to lose'. Not that I'm scared to losing my job. Just afraid to not be happy again.

I only wish my personal life made me as happy as my professional life. I think sometimes I use work to fill that void. And that can only cause problems, in so many ways.

I'm in the process of finding a new car - because it's needed beyond belief. I love my Shazam, but she's served me well, and I really don't want to end up on the side of the road one of these days. ::sigh::

Money is still an issue. But, when is it not. Between the car, and bills and everything else - life is expensive.

I haven't been home since New Year's. It's almost two months already - isn't that crazy? No wonder why my mother is wanting me to come home. I saw dad after that when he was here on business. Honestly, I have absolutely no desire to go home. Is that wrong??

I think Dre and I are going to join Matt and the boys for a few nights in Nags Head. Is this smart? No. But it's the beach. :)

I can't wait till Spring. This cold-ness is annoying and warmth is long over-due. The winter hasn't been that bad (of course that 14 inches was fun last week), but I WANT SPRING. Skirt season, heels... Ahhh, yes. :-D

Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives are NEW tonight!! Yeah!! I already watched the first season since buying it Tuesday. RENT dvd this week! I can't wait!! Walk the Line comes out on the 28th as well! February was a good DVD month!! Oh, and without those - I'm now up to 190. This is a sickness. I caught it from Kiera! Hehe.

I FINALLY finished putting all my CDs on the computer. 4008 tracks, 255 hours, 45 minutes, 17 seconds. That's nuts.

Movie time. What to watch, what to watch? Hmmm... I already watched A LOT of Sex in the City, Drumline, Working Girl and Must Love Dogs. I was thinking "Raise Your Voice" but I don't know. We'll see, I'll let you know.

Alright - pizza's done!

!

Mon, 13 Feb 2006 05:20:20 GMT

I'm alive.

I'm well.

Don't call the authorities.

Got home from VA Beach to 14 inches of snow. It was just SOOOO much fun digging my car out of that - with the shovel I DON'T own. ::rollseyes:: Nice neighbors man, nice neighbors!

Now I'm kinda hoping for a little freezing action overnight and no work tomorrow (or later today - technically). At least a delay. Come on man - don't disappoint me! Oh, who am I kidding... like I won't work at home anyway.

Princess Bailey's birthday party was so fun. Here actual birthday is today - the 13th. So I must call her on my lunch hour.

Pictures soon.

Sleep now.

OUT.

PS----> Patrick Dempsey? Oh how I love thee.... <3 Will you be my Valentine??

Exhausted

Fri, 03 Feb 2006 03:26:17 GMT

This week has kicked my ass. Except for the MAYBE 20 hours of sleep I got this week, my daily run and MAYBE taking the time to eat - I've been working. The deadline is tomorrow and the ads are not finished yet. How crazy is that? Anyway - so much has gone on this week - unexpectedly - that time was an issue. But enough on that!!

Tomorrow IS Friday - which means happy hour... :-D
Saturday I must forgo sleep and get downtown to get my MD driver's license. God, I hope this isn't an issue. I dread this - but at least I'll stop getting questioned about the picture on my PA license. Yes, in the picture I'm blond. Yes, my hair is darker now. IT's HAIR DYE PEOPLE! Only in Ocean City - dear Lord. Anyway - I'll have to actually get ready Saturday morning too - maybe a good picture this time!
Saturday night I'll be staying at Fran's. They leave for the airport at 4am on Sunday so I'll be there when that happens.
Sunday is the Superbowl, which - I am going to my boss's for a party. Wow, this is so adult-like.

And then back to work on Monday. ::sigh:: I just need to sleep. I'm runnin' on empty here. Dre asked if I wanted to go out tomorrow night - I truly don't know. I seriously want to come home from happy hour and CRASH. Saturday AM is going to be tough otherwise.

Alright - back to work. I want to gather my thoughts before I go to bed. Getting up early to get to the office by 7:30 at the latest tomorrow. I've been pulling 7:30-5:30 office days all week - plus working from home. With how this week was - next week should be a breeze, even WITH Fran out of the office!

OUT.

Ouch.

Tue, 31 Jan 2006 10:56:54 GMT

So... I'm really trying here. About the "get into shape" thing... And I'm in pain. Sunday - I went for a "run" which turned out to be mostly walking because I was so outta breath I couldn't handle it. Weak.
Yesterday I went on a "run" and although I walked a bit, I did run more than the other day. I'm building the tolerance! Anyway - as soon as I got back yesterday my legs were killing me.

They are still killing me. I almost fell when getting outta bed. I was thinking about what shoes to wear toay, but I guss sneakers is out of the question, huh?

ANYWAY...
Work this week is freakin' nuts. There are just SO many projects on my list and deadlines of this week. It's insanity. Which is why I'm writing at quarter of 6 in the morning.
I'm heading into work for 7:30 all week - which means I leave at 7. My reasons are bi-fold. ONE, because I'm busy and I want to "quiet time" to get it done. Plus, working on the work network at home is great - but it's slow when it has to cross lines to get on... And TWO, because I'm training myself to get up and out the door by 7 for when I'm at Fran's next week.

I don't believe I house-sit next week already!

This weekend I was to go to VA Beach. I cancelled those plans, regretably, but now I'm going down for my little Bailey's birthday party on the 11th. :-) She's too cute - I talked to her on the phone yesterday. I don't believe she's going to be 3. On the other hand, I don't believe she's ONLY 3, she acts like she's 10.

My boss is having a Super Bowl party. Which, I do want to go to, but I have Fran's dog and I don't want to leave him alone all day. BUT, since I'm not going to VA - I can be there early Sunday morning, be there all day and leave at 4... I don't know. I'll see who else is going from the office and base it on that. Fran won't be there obviously (since I'll be house-sitting), so there goes that. Maybe Becca... Maybe I'll see if Dre's invited too? Hmmm... Either way, Rodger said those 3 magic works in the email. "BAR IS OPEN" Oh, does he know his audience or what?

Alright - I must finish getting ready. Another day! Have a good one everyone!

Kie - I'll get those pics up when I have a chance...

OUT.

(Oh, and btw, YEA for this icon. I remember when this picture came out a few years ago.... when I actually wanted her stomach... But anyway. Her shirt? Yeah, that's my hometown. Hokey AA is their atletic association, playing fields are 2 blocks from my house... I cheered for them for 7 years, coached for 5. I have a bit of nostalgia... So weird.)

Sunday

Mon, 30 Jan 2006 01:48:56 GMT

I can't believe it's Sunday already. Where the hell did the weekend go?? Friday after work was happy hour and so much fun. Friday night I worked a little - finishing up the manuals I'm producing for our top agents.

Anyway. Saturday, I slept in and then Kier and Steve came in! We went to lunch at Bahama Breeze. Yummy. :-D Came home and worked a little more, watched a movie and met up with them later.

"Howl at the Moon" was so much fun... even sober! Col and Jay came too.

Lunch today with the four of them - which turned into a 2 1/2 hour event!

Tanning... Went for a run... Did the ab tape... Worked more.

Wow - I need a life. I'm the loser working on the weekend. ::sigh::

Now I'm waiting for my shows to start while watching a little friends. NEED to do my nails tonight.

OUT.

Great weekend!

Sat, 28 Jan 2006 15:13:39 GMT

I just talked to Kiera and they'll be on their way soon! Yea - I weekend with my best friends ever!

We've got Kiera...

Wow, we REALLY need a new picture!

And then there's Steve...

So of course I'll be tortured.

AND Col and Jay later. Becca too! At "Howl at the Moon"!
What a fun night planned!!

OUT

Argh!
