Man of a million "Hats"

I have a tendency of taking pictures of friends in hats or head wear when we go out places!

I think I need to publish them some place...

OK Now I'm off for dinner with Stevie B and Fuz - and Mike too of course! MMMMMM MEAT!

Dang it! Almost there!

Are you all sick of me blabbing about not smoking? No you say? Well right on then! ha ha! And this will be short and painless! I hope!

Here's my Quit date info....


Time Smoke-Free:
21 days, 15 hours, 10 minutes and 19 seconds

Cigarettes NOT smoked: 324
Lifetime Saved: 2 days, 11 hours
Money Saved: $99.00

Seriously!? $99????? Come on... I'm waiting to hit the one hundred dollar mark to celebrate - that's a mile stone isn't it?

ALMOST THERE!!!!!!

this quitting thing is great except for the fact that it sucks and is hard! I'm just saying!

Arrrrgh! OK Thank you for listening you may now go back to reading through dirty web sites of adult content... class dismissed!

Google World!

So it seems google is having a contest for a new design of their Logo! They tend to have their Google logo change for different days of the year like holidays or large events - this is a link on the Google home page - just below the Google search bar in the center of the page it has a link that says " Vote for the one" that will appear here

If you click that link you can vote between groups of winners form each grade level~! Some are from local schools in Colorado here near me - but many are form all over the USA. Kind of cool! I'm not sure if other countries Google page is doing the same thing but it's fun!

Some of the pictures are amazing... they kids have paragraphs of what their picture is supposed to depict along with their age and school and state!

here is one of my favorites form the Grades 10-12 category (BTW You can vote one out of each group!) and the picture's paragraph and info below it!

I Wish
I wish for more hope, hope for the future. I wish there was more love. Love for the environment and people. I wish for more joy. I wish for peace, a movement for it. I wish for more trees. I wish for gay rights, now.

Cougar Radio

While working we some times have down time. In reality that's good for the general public because it means they're not having death - murder or in general any emergencies!

It allows us time to bounce jacked up songs or idea's off each other. One co worker calls some of our older ladies that we work with his Cougars! They love it! He discusses how he loves one ladies hot C-PAP lines from her oxygen tubes at night when she comes in... he tells another how her smokers voice is the sexiest thing and that they should go to Tijuana together! (She tells him no saying "You'd leave my old ass there!")

Well recently he's come up with the concept of a "Cougar" radio station! Randomly he'll sing jingles for it! Or in his best radio announcer voice he spout off "All cougar! All the time" Followed by multiple people in the room making cougar like cat growling attack noises!

Recently they made a "cougar Barbie" commercial that'd been sent around in emails! It was awesome! Two girls played with cougar Barbie while she seduces a pack of unaware frat boys into her house and then didn't let them leave - with her belly hanging over her too low rise jeans and her short ratted hair stiff as she snuck up to block the doorway as some of the boys tried to leave... she also entertained those frat boys with a nice seductive dance to the tune of "Small town Girl" by Journey!

So now that song gets performed a few times a night! --- Enjoy








All COUGAR RaDIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Sing it!)

92.9 The Cougar RRRROOOWWWWRRRRRRRR!

Cougar Barbie Knows all the LATEST dance moves!

Day 17 thought for the day!

40 cigarette’s every 3 days on average = 13.3r per day(approx 15)
$6 x 1 pack (20 smokes) = $0.30 per cigarette

17 days X 15 cigarette’s X $0.30 = $76.50

76.50 is just about how much we spent for our fancy Austrian dinner and drinks in Aspen –

All paid for with money I wouldn’t have had if I kept smoking!

(Then I JUST about smoked right after dinner - I'd had a HUGE boot full of beer - and wanted one bad - but I didn't - it was close though! lol)

= 6-pack

Road Side Secret Compartment!

On our way to Aspen for the weekend Mike and I drove past all sorts of things... one thing we passed though was a citizen assist. An officer had pulled over and parked his vehicle just so on the side of the road as to make sure no one slammed into him or the other car with the flat tire that he'd pulled up to assist with!

Well, whatever type of vehicle it was... Mike made mention that the smaller SUV type vehicle has a jack to help in changing the flat tire but that they wouldn't find it unless they checked the owners manual. I scrunched my nose and thought "Well they were looking where I would have looked" as we drove by...

He then explained that he'd spent some times trying to find it on that same type of automobile but didn't realize there was a secret compartment under the passengers seat for the car jack.

I just picked up my cell phone as we drove and called 911 -- I figured I could save them some time by phoning that information in... when the operator answered I immediately asked if they had a different non emergency line for my call in their area... she let me know she could help... so I explained we'd passed a sheriff's deputy for their county who was on the West bound lanes of I-70 assisting some girls in an SUV change a tire but that my Boyfriend was a mechanic and he said they may nit find the jack very easily... I explained why where and how... and she put me on hold - when she came back she verified that the jack should be under the passenger seat and I said yes. She said GOOD they're looking for it! She thanked me and I let her go....

Odd to be on the other side of calls but Mike just kind of smiled and shook his head at me... now I'm wondering... maybe he was kidding... I should have double checked before I called them huh!? Oh well couldn't hurt! lol

Nifty Secret Jacks!!! .....

Get Down!

This link is the news story of the people who shot at us while I was riding along in an officers car! I was in the car behind Officer Zborowski's car! We were chasing while he got shot at! We got shot at! Glass and bullets all over shooting back at us in a high speed chase ending in their arrest only after the car slammed into the end of a "T-boned" intersection. Both shooters were arrested - I didn't get hit but I am and have testified as a victim of attempted murder.

Mack Attack!

One of our agencies Sargent's brought us a little visitor! This little fella was wondering the streets - His owners decided they didn't want him anymore! His tag says Mack! So cute - Part Pug - Maybe a Puggle (Pug +Beagle) Thought I'd Share - he hung out in here for a few hours before going home with a possible new human companion!

TV is the New Chihuahua

OK I just wanted to share – because when I get asked about funny or odd calls I always draw a blank….

I just took a call that seems like even LESS of an emergency than the loose Chihuahua calls we get …. (At least those could pose a traffic hazard I guess)

Me : 9 1 1?

Caller : I am calling 9 1 1 because this guy here won’t let me watch the right channel on my TV

Me : Ok sir so you would like an officer to respond because he won’t let you watch the right channel on the TV (TV is playing in the background)

Caller: that’s right! I know it’s not a HUGE emergency but my address is 5492 ***** Blvd ……I want him to know officers will respond. I need them to respond.

Luckily his address is out of our area so I got him to right city… but yes… we have people who call 911 for everything.

Worms?

So while doing laundry the other day I moved one load of clothes into the Dryer after it's cycle. I then began to fill the washer for the next load and I noticed some "worm like" things floating in the new water right before I dropped the clothing into it... I scooped it out with my hand to find it's not a worm but I have no idea what it actually is.

I shrug it off and then I add the clothes to the soapy water in the washer and close the lid for it's cycles to keep going.

I then open the dryer to add a dryer sheet which I'd forgotten to do and I see in the filter thingy that it's got some more "worm like things... they're not worms it's small bits of paper and tons of wet tobacco..... Um... I haven't smoked in a week at this point so I'm thinking to myself... OH HELL.... Where'd I leave that full pack of cigarettes!?

Dude when you smoke you know RIGHT where you set your open pack! I'd had them at a wedding we'd gone to the week before but I forgot I left the whole pack in my pants cargo pocket! I had not gone looking for them because after that I'd only smoked ONE cigarette!

I found the pack - but only after I weeded through the load and found all the small wet filters that had broken off of them! GROSS!

Needless to say I will check the lower pockets of my pants and shorts from now on! Haha! But I won't have any more cigarette's in there if I stay on track! HAHA!

Oh and let me say! Glad it wasn't Worms!

Quit THIS!

I've stopped smoking! It's not friggen easy either - I've stopped before I quit smoking for just over a year one time - and then again I quit for a 7 month period - WHY dis I start again? It was so easy to! I'd be out drinking or partying - thinking I could smoke one with my beer and my friends about... that lead to another that to another and so on - Needless to say I'm 32 and I've smoked for the majority of 22 years - SICK I know not to mention I grew up in a house with both parents smoking inside and in our cars with us!

SO - Here's something I found on a fellow Bloggers page since he's quitting too!

enjoy! I'll keep you posted... BTW - I'm on day 9 now just over 2 weeks! Wahoooooooo I'm a non smoker I think? We'll see!
