- This week dragged along for me. I had no motivation at work and opted out of a company function simply because I think work already takes up too much of my time.
- I’m making progress with this workout program and I’m enjoying it. Unfortunately, I forgot the value of water and caught an awful series of calf cramps while I was playing basketball. Apparently 8 cups a day isn’t enough for me.
- I’m considering becoming a certified Personal Trainer. People keep telling me I’d be good at it and I think I’d really enjoy it.
- Gotta make a trip home to upstate NY this weekend. It’s been a while since I made that journey. It’ll be nice to have momma’s home cookin’ and do nothing but lay on the couch and sporadically run errands for her.
- I don’t find The Office as funny as most people do. However, I do find Family Guy and South Park hilarious.

- I had more training this week. Man … all this training is tiring. Well … I guess I’m learning a bunch of good skills and stuff.
- Apparently my company had one of the best years in its history. We also have several hundred open positions. Boggles the mind and is probably going to secure my tenure with the firm.
- I made it to the gym … finally. It had been some months … but I’m back.
- I bought my plane ticket to Vegas for next month. I am very much looking forward to getting away and turning off my cell phone. The office will not be tracking me down.
- After Vegas, its Bike Week! And in anticipation, I’ve decided to buy a new motorcycle. I have made the choice to join Team Green and get me a Kawasaki. I won’t be getting a green one … but still looking forward to it. Also, anyone looking to buy a Honda … get at me.
- Before Vegas and Myrtle Beach … its off to Chicago for a chill weekend. Never been to the city … so I’m looking for all advice on where to go and what to see!
- It looks like this will be the last rants for the foreseeable future. With the new writers, time to give up my own little spot for my b*tching and moaning and give someone a chance to wow the world with their words. I’ll probably bring it back every now and again … but no more regular Friday Ranting … sorry folks.
For the last rants … really let it out … RANT
@Slim: Aw man.. The Office is classic and so is Kath & Kim (comes on right after!)…. but I agree with you on Family Guy.
@SBM: "Good Skills" why did that make me think of Napoleon Dynamite?
Rants:
1. I'm starving.
2. I have a billion things to do to get prepared for my cousin's wedding tomorrow, including doing her lil girls hair….and rehearsal dinner, etc. Who plans a wedding the same time as Easter?
3. I am a bridesmaid and I must wear this huge Kool Aid dress. UGH.
4. I thought my bf was gonna be able to come and be my date but we found out he has to work… But I'm going to see him next week. I miss him.
5. And I'm still hongry.
6. Celibacy was great and all but when you decide to give it up, you're back to virgin status… that part sucked.
7. My theatre teacher still wants me to shank her.
End Scene.
1. I was soo broke this week..I can't wait till next friday

@Slim – I like The Office but Family Guy is my best friend. Oh, and by the way, you can train me any day.
@SBM – Aw, no more rants? I kinda liked getting it out in this here forum. As for the Chi? Man, I don't even know where to start!
Rants:
- This will be a chill day. My department works with the UK and they celebrate Good Friday so it will be a filing, low-key day. Half of me is glad because it won't be such a rush to get things done, and the other half is mad because the day might go by slowly. We'll see.
- Lookin' at the forecast it looks like we'll finally be consistently warming up here. Cool.
- Mmm, free breakfast Fridays.
Have a lovely weekend and Easter ya'll.
Yesterday, I accidentally deleted all my text messages and my entire call log from my Blackberry. F My Life.
Oh and Chitown is AWESOME in the Spring and Summer. Those 2 seasons are the reason why e stay and take the awful winter. Possibilities are endless for what you can get into.
@ Slim: The Family Guy is awesome!!! The Office is for when nothing else is on TV, which just isn't the case lol.
@ SBM: My desire for a bike came back last week… think I'll just borrow someones lol.
My Rants….
1. This account that I have is working my last nerve…
2. Which drove me to happy hour yesterday… had drinks with an ex, then had drinks and some lovin with Dude… yea today is a good day
3. Dude has been blowing me up this week… he's asks for some space, you give it to him and he comes back to mama… dude is confused.
4. I WANT A NEW JOB BADDDDDD!!!!!
5. I've been shopping way too much and my spending account is proof. Still have San Diego at the end of this month and summer shopping to do *sigh*.
Will miss this dearly but look forward to the new additions to the site! Bring it! lol You all enjoy your weekend!
@reign: I think dude is trying to protect the integrity of your vajayjay while he figures things out.lol.
@Slim: I just can't get into either shows, it's sometimes just to much for me. Maybe I should look at the first seasons to get a complete understanding.
@SBM:I can't wait for the new writers, but will definitely miss Mr. FAQ. Goodbye Rants, maybe it's for the best!!!
Rants:
* Work is work, but I'm itching to tryout a list of different opportunities. I want to dabble more with my creative side a little bit and see where that takes me.
*I also need to publish and submit some of my writing samples to some MFA programs, just to see if I can get in. Although I need to complete several more character developments and poem edits before applying. Hmmmm, decisions, decisions!!!!
*I really need to start a saving account for all the trips I'm taking this year, but how. I'm too much of a shopaholic, I've been spending money like crazy decorating my crib. I'm looking at: Europe, NYC, Philly, and Vegas. Yep that's going to be a nice grip on my pocketbook.
*I read the entire Twilight Saga for preteens in a week. Yeah that's about 2379 pages and now I'm stuck wondering what the author is going to do next now that she's completed the saga. I guess I'll have to wait until all of the films are done as well. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
*My personal trainer asked for my April goals and I still haven't gotten them to him. Again, decisions, decisions!!!
Happy Easter
Hoping that all is well and will continue to be well with all!

@Slim..Love Family Guy, The Office…not so much. Also I need to get back into the gym, I've been slackin'!
1. This week work has been incredibly slow. My store is closing and all of us who work there are being relocated. Sad because I'm going to miss the area…sort of, but happy because at the new store this is more traffic which means more money!!!
2. Two dates with two different guys in one week was fun. And I had a chance to hang out with my "part timer" as well.
3. This weekend I have to work but get Easter off so I'm looking forward to that….
Don't have much to rant about this week so Everybody have a great weekend and Happy Easter!
@SBM: Several hundred positions?!?! WTF! Lol. Name of company, please? Remember… sharing is caring. Lol.
@SBM: if you make it here to the Chi on a non-snowing weekend the possibilities are endless…
Looking for a chill spot that always has good music try Funky Buddha….more trendy try Victor Hotel…sightseeing hit NMA do a little shopping…and Rush Street…hit Rush for the eats too…
My only rant is when will my body adjust to daily workouts….this sore crap is for the birds…
{Sad Face} Im going to miss the rants.
I have a few since its the last one.
1. The job is letting go of the only other minority woman on my floor. I miss her already.
2. The vacation was the kick in the pants I needed to actually get started looking for a new job. Wishful thinking had me clean out my cube already.
3. I really want to spend the weekend in bed, but with Easter and a co-workers party that just aint gonna happen.
4. My birthday is tuesday and I am not motivated to do anything big.
