First grade woes

It was brought to my attention this afternoon, when the teacher called me, that the princess has been having altercations with a classmate lately. Rumor on the playground is that the princess and Laura are in competition on who gets to be Mia's 1st best friend. Mia is the new girl in school and is deciding who gets this illustrious title. Meanwhile, the princess is beating on Laura to the point where she is scared to go to school and had her mom call the school to complain about the princess' bullying.

I never had that sort of problem with the genius, but I never thought the princess would be the one to be getting into fights already. That little bruiser. She got taken to the principles' office and had a talking to.

I am not surprised, though. She's a little pistol. I just have to remember to keep her safety on.

Buh-humbug? Buh-randy!

So its that time of year again. The music, the presents, the obligations. (un) Lucky for me, I got fired from my job at Club Tattoo, so now I have a ton of time to spend with the kids and family. Yipee. Hey, I'm trying to look at the silver lining. Although now that I'm out of a job, I'm out of money from that job to buy Christmas presents for my kids. Who fires someone weeks before Christmas?! Scrooge is the first person that comes to mind. It's a good thing I have their dad to count on for the buying of the presents.

Now with my even-more-broke ass, I will be making presents this year. A few paintings here, a couple of home-made hair accessories there and maybe some baked goods. I'll make due, I always do. Like that one year the ex and I had only ten dollars left after bills and he went to Wal-greens on Christmas eve and bought some little toys and candy...fortunately the kids were too young to notice. It's time for me to gather up my last ten dollars, so to speak, and buy those little dollar bin toys.

Now that I'm all amped up for my crafty Christmas I have to get ready for my client. Talk about Myspace being a good advertising tool. I better kick into high gear.

Adventures in Whoreland goes on sabbatical

I'm just barely now getting to my computer for the day. I haven't even had time to think up material for the ads I've found over the weekend. So my Adventures in Whoreland is going on sabbatical. Don't worry my pretties, its only for two weeks and well, one is already almost over.

I just got home from an overly long night at work and after my second day of school, I am exhausted. Lather. Rinse. Repeat. Tomorrow is the same shit, different day. My body got way too used to sleeping all day, or least laying in bed, and not doing much else. Now I'm thrown back head first into the live-in-my-car-never-see-my-kids-never-home lifestyle that I was used to, but sure did not miss. Not even one little bit.

Once I get into the swing of things, after next week, I'll start up the Adventures in Whoreland once again. For now my bed is calling out my name for a night of tossing and turning and exhaustion for tomorrow. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

Pretty small nutshell

A few things to catch you up on my comings and goings. It's been a while since I've written anything, but I've been fostering a busy schedule of sleeping all day and working all night followed by drinking a lot. I know, how DO I find the time to be so fabulous. I don't know how I do it.

However though, my luxurious (read: boring) life has come to an end. At least for the next couple of months. I started back at school again. Today was my first day back. It was pretty exciting (read: excruciatingly boring). I started at probably the worst possible time. Right before the holidays is really slow. Until the week before Christmas. Then slow again. Not to mention that "winter break" is coming up for the kiddos and the sister is in no condition (read: gestation-ally challenged) to baby-sit my saints for two to three whole weeks. We'll see how that goes.

In other, less interesting news, I've added more to my accouterments. I pierced both of my nostrils. And I love it. Also, my hair is black now, too...again.

Yeah, I know, I can't make up my mind. Maybe some day, but then I wouldn't be the epitome of eccentricity. I'm pretty sure that's all for now. I've had a long day, you know, being that I didn't get to sleep all day. My mind doesn't really know what's going on. Dementia isn't the right disorder, but its the first that comes to mind.
