I am working on getting a new website.. Thanks to Kendra's inspiration. But I am having trouble coming up with a name. I know nobody reads this but if you happen to, please give me your suggestion.

So it's pretty wack that I barely started my blog and I've already gone more then a month without updating. To my defence, my laptop was broken and I couldn't use it for more then 7 minutes without it crapping out. A week ago though, I went and bought a new one. It's an HP and it was pretty inexpensive. I like it though. It will be mine until we have enough money to buy me a macbook pro (I need a 17'' monitor) and then Larry will take this one.

I have the next week off of work. I was supposed to go to Vegas this week but some car worries and Larry's job is keeping us from that. It's okay though cause the job is more of a blessing. He's doing some extra work on CSI:NY on a more permanent basis. It's a great oppertunity for him so it's a good thing we cancelled the trip. But it means we have a week off of work without anything to do. There will certainly be a lot of sleeping in. That is a definite. I plan on going to see my nephew too. It's my birthday next weekend so I am trying to collect as many best buy gift cards so I can get a flat screen tv.

Work is going pretty well. If I wasn't anti-drug before, some of my staff have certainly made me that way. Gees, some of those kids are the stupidest people on the planet. One guy can't seem to think of anything other then TV, Movies and Paris Hilton. He spends his entire day staring at himself in a big mirror that he has right next to his monitor... well, had.. since I made him take it down. He's definitely in the wrong line of work.

Speaking of TV.. there is a lot of good TV on right now.. like, my DVR is going crazy. The Vampire Diaries has really captured my attention. And of course, a new season of So You Think You Can Dance. I don't know why they brought it back so quick but I am glad glad glad. Oh! Oh! And Nip/Tuck comes back this week. Freakin' finally!!!

Now that I've officially bored you, I will get back to listening to Paramore and relaxing.

Addicted to the Book

2009-08-30T11:48:00.000-07:00

I'm back to blog again.. I've been reading a lot lately. I read the Twilight series. This is what got me back into reading. I must say, I resisted the urge to read the Twilight books because it seemed like some stupid tween craze. I didn't think there could be anything good in it, but I finally gave in. One day Larry came home and brought me Twilight and I started reading. I was hooked almost immediately. By the end of the night, I couldn't think about anything but reading more. I read it twice that week because money was tight and couldn't afford the second. I had to see the movie so I ordered it on On Demand. I've never been so disappointment in a movie, in all my life. When I got paid, I bought the remaining 3 and read them within the week. Then I read the series again. I was hooked. I may have a bit of an addictive personality but who cares.

Now I am reading James Patterson's Women's Murder Club books. I had read 2 or 3 of them previous but decided I need to read the entire series (there are 8) I read books 3 and 4 yesterday. When I read, I don't stop. I could finish the biggest book you can give me within a day if it's good.

Do you have any book suggestions?

I hate dreaming of work

Work has been pretty crazy and stressful. My department at work is called Executive Customer Relations. Basically, people who can't afford their home, apply for a modification to see if we can reduce the rate or extend the term of their loan, which then lowers their payment. When they've tried dealing with our collections and workout departments, and fail, they come to us. We get all the angry cranky a-holes. It's all good though. I like being able to help when no one else can. Right now though, we're busy. Ridiculously so. and I have been having dreams about work. I hate having dreams about work but last nights was good. I came up with a quick, easy and effective solution to what we've been doing. When I woke up, I thought about it and realize that it was a good idea. I was ready to put it into effect. Unfortunately, a few hours later, I do not remember what the idea was. Hopefully it'll come back to me....

I love my weekends. It's Sunday, I just got back from Coco's. I ate cinnamon roll french toast mmmmm with Larry and now I'm watching Sister Act II while he makes music. There are no demands, no expectations. Just a lot of chillin'. One day, when I have kids, I'll have things to do on the weekends and places to be but until then, I will appreciate each and every one of my chillin' weekends.

Larry's nephew had a little baby girl last night... well, his nephew's wife. It's their third kid. I always wanted 3 kids but when I think about it, how much stress they must have. All the worry of caring for a new born and having a 2 & 4 year old running around screaming and crying, I cringe. Maybe once you get a handle on 1, you then are ready for #2, and then once you get a handle on the 2 of them, you become ready for #3. I am excited for them though. I love little babies.

sigh It's like falling off a horse

Hello ladies and gentlemen..

It's so strange to be back in the world of blogging. I'll have to remember to remember to post, if that makes any sense at all. For those of you, who are new to me, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Stacey. I am 26 years old from Los Angeles, CA. I'm less then 2 months away from being 27. Every since I hit my 20's, I knew 27 was going to be the perfect age. I still truly believe that and can't wait until it happens. When I'm 27, I planned to be married, and if I have it my way, with a baby on the way. It could happen....

I am dating a lovely man named Larry. He's a super fantastic, super hot and talented man. He's an actor, a martial arts instructor and the evil dictator as Lead Officer in Hospital Security. Ever since we met, almost 2 years ago, he's completely changed my whole life. He's opened my eyes to so many different things. I'm inspired every day when I am with him.

But back to me... this is supposed to be about me, right? Well I work as an evil dictator at a little mortgage company called Bank of America. It's a lovely little job that I've had for about 6 years. I enjoy my job a lot, even though my staff drives me crazy at times.

I guess you'll figure more about me as the days roll by.

Forgive me, I'm a bit rusty.

Test..
