weekends that started out kind of iffy ending up beautifully...all kinds of wonderful Valendooms Day suprises throughout the weekend..including responses to my poem (haha). Some people just do't get my humor...(why they're not around anymore anyhoo!) But umm, yeah (I need to stop doing that). I'm re-obsessed with bowling. I had gotten away from it, but I relapsed. But all of the other kick assednedd things that made my weekend fantabulous will be kept on the shhhhh...a girl's got to have some anonymity. But back to the norm..message boards, spades, and blah, blah, blah. Happy Monday!

word to my motha...quit blocking

nothing brings me more joy that things of the old school..whether it be old school friends, old school words (see above), old school music, or old school clothes. Which brings me to why today was so interesting...well actually it doesnt...have to go program my vcr for the late iron chef..will finish this thought later

HAPPY


VALENDOOMS DAY!

oh joy...well my morning started off weird...someone tricked me into thinking my kick ass weekend was about to go up in smoke, just to be like, "haha..just kidding", people are being dumb at work today, though I work with a bunch of guys so I'm not surrounded by other people's flowers and crap.I got paid a day early, and I sent a kick ass poem to all of my present/former friends/associates/ex's this morning:

An ode to umm...it's just an ode
One or two of you I've loved,
Some I could never stand,
A couple I would have given the world
a few not worth making plans.

To some I was your love lost,
("the one that got away")
And others I just lost you
(but I found something better...so hey!)
Some of you were super honest,
and others not a word true.
Some of you had too many red flags,
so I didn't stay fooled up with you.

Many of you were only my friend,
and never got the chance to be my man.
But hey, you wouldn' be where you are now,
if we would have followed that plan.

Most of you are great guys,
a couple I wouldn't let kiss my ass,
but whether I like you or hate you-
it doesn't matter it's all in the past.

So on this lovely V-day,
I hope things for you are grand.
Hope you show your sweeties mad love,
(and she's not creeping with another man.)

For those of you who are dating psychos
don't let them get tattoos,
because then you're stuck with a mediocre chick forever,
and then "it sucks to be you."

To those of you on call block,
I 'm sorry that had to go down.
But when you call 50 times in one day,
I truly don't want you around.

Some of us are still cool,
in that case where's my bouquet?
I won't go off just yet,
but you have until 7 today!

If you've been around me even a minute,
my humor should be understood.
So you know I do this in kindness,
and in my heart, "It's all good."

Ok, let me stop lying,
1 or 2 of you are total assheads.
I would probably get joy from your misery,
and laugh if I heard you were dead.

Damn, that sure was harsh,
I'm sure I sound like a bitch.
But to those of you on my "cool list."
Just disregard that crazy ish.

This is getting a bit lengthy
(you kow I got that flow)
But my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
Whether it's to heaven or hell I hope you go.

But I hope you all are happy,
God knows my life kicks ass.
Much love to you on Valentines day.
And keep the past right there, (in the past.)




Happy Valentine's Day!
Portia

deprivation and travel plans

I'm still tired, actually left work on time yesterday. But this strange thing always happens..no matter how tired I am during the day, the second I step out of this blasted building I feel all perky, giddy, and wide awake. So since I know I won't go to sleep when I go home, I took a nap in my car on my lunch break. Almost as soon as I was in, "that good sleep." One of our bike patrol security guys in his spiffy biker shorts and tan shirt that says BIKE PATROL (just like that) came over banging on my window talking about he thought I was unconsious because he had tapped a few times. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ruin my perfectly comfortabulous (I think that's my new word for comfortable and fabulous..hmmm) nap??? That was hurrendible (terrible and horendous...sp?) So now I'm back in here all grumpified and deprived of sleep.

Tomorrow is officially my friday this week! Hoorah! Hoorah!

exhaustion, addiction, and other afflictions
Could I be more tired? Of course now that my computer is back in my life, (that doesn't sound right,) I had to stay up re-establishing my addictions. (The Sims, Sim city, spades, and pong.) Soo I was up until like 2 ish, and had a lovely 4 hours of sleep. The last thing I saw before i fell into my short slumber was a preview of that Aaliyah movie, Queen of the Damned. Vampire movie starring a deceased person...that's not comfy. But I like vampire movies, and it's based on an Ann Rice book, so I'll go see it...that's just not somethign I want to see again before I go to sleep. I found something new to occupy me my first 20 minutes at work. Ritz crackers in your coffee is..is..it's just great. But umm..I am going to Jacksonville for real this time...I refuse to let the keep me in tampa Gods hold me back this time...I don't have to work Friday or Monday...how beautiful is that??? So every time I get temporarily disgruntled throughout this week I just need to remember that..

Speaking of sleep...I've noticed a lot of pictures of me sleeping are showing up...


I really need spell check...I used to be really unlazy about checking my spelling

fishing chicks and garlic wings
wow, I noticed that almost all of my titles have a reference to food...hmmm
but yeah, I went fishing from like 10 this morning until like 45 minutes ago...didn't catch a thing, but I had fun anyhoo..I'm thrilled because the costume/housewarming/suporse bday party is tonight, so I get to go get pimped out...I bought a real fake mustache (ummm oxymoron much) and some kind of cigar from the convenience store, and I've got my gold tooth cap witht he cut out of a play boy bunny in it...I'm so thrilled. I'll be sure to take mad pictures...gotta post the pic one more time for GP
oh! I went to the puppy shoppe that I got Penelope from last year, and I was looking at the chihuahua puppies...I tell you, those are addictive...I WANT ANOTHER ONE!!!

Penelope got weighed today, she's freaking 7lbs 34 ounces...I remember when she was 2 lbs...eek

curve, pimp costumes and state fairs

I finally figured out how to use all of those other nifty features on my scanner...tadow!

This weekend should be fantabulous! I have a suprise costume/birthday/housewarming party to go to Saturday night. (I'll be doing the pimp thing again..see last weeks archives for that picture.) And tonight I may go to the fair...ughh I sound so country when I say that...maybe it's time I embrace my southerness...

my country characteristics
* I go to state fairs
* I have barbecues for no reason
* I've never seen snow/mountains (except for hills in GA
* I find Ludacris mildly entertaining

I'm sure there's more, but I'm in denial. Oh! Before I forget! Curve is absolutely one of the best colognes for men in existence...just thought I'd share that. Well have a wonderful weekend!

sinking ships and fried rice
I've got issues, but here's today's song
good morning earth! I'm eerily normal feeling today, not tired, not hungry, my hair is decent, I don't mind that I'm at work, and I think I spoke to every single person I walked by on my way to my cube this morning. ...
what's up with that??
Last night my friend called me at around midnight, I was half asleep, but he's not on my ish list so I tried to wake up for a second...I think he said his ship was sinking, so he had to go....so I wake up this morning all confused and what not, and I can't call cuz he's at work during the day...I think...hmmm
It's raining like a summonobich (don't ask) outside, maybe thaat's why I'm in such a good mood, I swear I need to move t Seattle or Englad..I love the grey weather. maybe I'll edit this later with something interesting..but I'm typed out for now..gotta go talk ish on msg boards..buh bye!
oh, Jacksonville, about the phone billha!

theme songs and elimination lists
u gotta click on the link to the song before u read my entry...
song for today..haha

today is a quiet, quiet, day in my universe...ha I actually had a healthy list of associates for a minute...now looky:

Clearwater too many bridges and some other mean stuff
Depressed just wasn't feeling his old gloomy ass
Mr. Movies he was a hottie, but he thrived on being the victim....too much drama pretty boy!
Renaissance he's my barber, and fishing buddy but that's all I see
Alabama he's my "best guy friend" but I don't do repeats
Atlanta (Sexy Bald One Tiffany) bruh is beautiful, but not long-term local
Orlando just an experiment, the only person I'll drive these 80 miles for now is Tiffany
Rico Suave just not vibing
Love Jones I dissed him when he wanted me, because I had a man, then when I wanted him, he had a girl..now it's all funky
* Cocoa Beach ok ok, so what if he lives in Tampa now..i was having fun with all of the different locations, this is a friend from church who keeps me acountable
* Jacksonville makes me laugh all the time..."that's my dawg!" (with his adorable self!)
* England Chef ok, I hope he DOESN"T like me like that..since I'm tryin to go to England in March, and I'd hate for him to think he could be in my space bubble..


ok...yes these are all males, because the only female friend I have worth listng is (tiffany) ...yes THESE ARE/WERE all friends no getting of da booty took place (shut up Sweet Pea) and umm...yeah, I don't have many friends OR associates...and I like it like that...I'll get cool with a high concentration of people..then disassociate with all of them around the same time...I guess I have sociable seasons..and winter/spring isn't one of them...maybe that's why my v day's always suck...hmmm I wish I couls have posted a little picture next to each of thsoe..would have been survivor-ish...but you know me..afraid of law suits..ok, so you like the Celine Dion "all by myself" playing while u read my list of ex- associates??? Love the drama...LOVE IT! I also have to note, that a lot of these associations went sour solely because my attention span sucks..so don't get me wrong, these are all great people..just not great for my universe. So I wish them al the best of luck finding their "special friends" or "significant others." And maybe, just maybe, one day you'll get over the loss of princess Portia...muawhahahaha!!!

peanut butter toast and mistaken identity
Ok, I have this "thing" where I will like absolutely hate a food for a few months or years, then all of a sudden, I love it again (am I like that w/people too?? nah) but I've detested peanut butter for the past couple of years, but now I'm loving the peanut butter toast, and I have to go to the grocery store and buy all the different types of special peanut butter...but you know what?!? In a month I'll hate it again...damn compulsive personality....
have you ever noticed that no one calls you until you're actually ON the phone?? I hate that. Slight pet peeve. Whenever I call someone I say ,"this is Portia." My best friend and whoever I'm "seeing" hate it because they're like "UMMM I KNOW!" But I do it to keep them from having to go through an embarrasing incident of mistaken identity. That and if a guy I'm seeing HAD to ask..he'd get cussed out...so I beat him to it...ok, so last night, I was expecting a call from my St. Pete friend, and a Tampa friend called, and he sound eerily like the St. Pete friend, though the St. Pete friend has a slight accent. So I get into this conversation about soemthing mildly interesting with the Tampa individual that I thought was the St.Pete individual. And then like 20 mintues into the conversation the Tampa person says, "no, not (Tampa's name)" and I'm like...hold on a second. So I call Tiffany in "o" and ask her what to do..I mean it wasnt that important, but this slightly interesting thing I was saying would not make sense to someone that didnt know the background, so then I was worried that Tampa would think I had lost it, and was just playing along. So Tiffany says just e like, "look I thought u were someone else." So I click back over, hang up w/her (3 clicks) and I'm like..ummm Tampa, there's a lesson to be learned from a few minutes ago..now he's REALLY like WTF is she talking about, so I go into this whole spiel (sp?) about how important and proffesional it is to identify yourself at the beginning of a conversation...take this lesson and run with it...and just because someone asks you to identify yourself, it doesn't mean that they're associationg with lots of people of the opposite sex...they just want to be able to "personalize" the conversation! :o)

ok, all the ish I had planned for the weekend, and I ended up doing everything BUT. I mean, I had fun, Saturday I played nice auntie and went to my nephew's birthday party, hung out with my "god baby mama" (yes i said that), finally saw fast and the furious (Vin Diesel is a beautiful specimen of man!), went to 2 superbowl parties (1 each half), talked to my jville buddy a lot, and etc., etc.
This week seems like it's going to be pretty uneventful..but of course those are always the high drama ones. Ah well, I'll just brace myself...HAPPY MONDAY!
