and so it is

life goes easy on me...most of the time.

I can't get a good grip on this week. And I'll be the first to admit, it's because I didn't make the best use of my weekend. Sure, I had tons of fun and got to see some friends that I rarely get to visit but now I'm backed up...mentally constipated as it were..haha gross.

But really, the days of my week all run together and become a stream of fast moving waters, the weekend is the dam. All of the debri from the banks buildup at the mouth, Friday night around 9pm, and if it's not taken care of on Saturday or Sunday...it rolls right into the following week, where there is even less time or energy or brainage to think about it. *sigh*

My first car insurance payment EVER is due this Saturday, maybe I should send that check out. Wait a minute, that's right! I don't have the money yet...

Saw a cherry tree today on the parkway, spilling it's fruitage into the left lane.
THE RARITAN TOLL BOOTHS HAVE BEEN DESTROYED!

I actually have work to do today that does not involve banishment to the file room.

My boss, she's like this sophisticated 60 year old lady. Well she's gonna be either a Geisha girl or Shrek for Halloween.

This finance manager, he has dark eyes and hair, quite attractive but he's gotta be a blonde. He's in the kitchen fishing through the snapple bottles for red snaffle caps. He saw Bruce this weekend..so occasionaly you hear a Bruuuuuuuce! from his office...ok it's Wednesday already dude. We have popcorn in this huge bottle thingy and he's the only one that eats out of it and leaves a trail around the office. Hmmm, maybe I won't have work today because he hasn't opened the new period yet..slacker.

Ok I'm done!

hahah seriously... in her defense.. i dont know htat many people besides myself that started paying their own insurance right off the bat... my parents wanted me to deal with all my bills myself... they helped with my car and things, but i paid the bills... and with my high insurance... it wasnt fun.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

i pay for all of my bills. phone, car, insurance.

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

Yep, me too. For the most part it brings a sense of shock and pride that I actually CAN pay my bills but now it's just..

mo' money mo' problems

Having a $104 car payment every month when I was 16 seemed to be so expensive back in the day...

In a few months I'll have a car payment again. I only wish it could be as cheap as $104.

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

ok, so what happened? Did your pants get caught on the conveyer belt again?

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

Doh! I meant this to reply to #6

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

is that cuz you spilled code red on it the other day?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

it was totally cleaned, thank goodness. the cleaning dude didn't mention anything either. sadly, i didn't have time for code red today.

sunshyne sunshyneOG 2004 ·

i hate paying bills, but i love making them.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

"mentally constipated" HAHA I LUV it!

Yes hun, welcome to the adult world, bills are not fun!!! Like sunshyne said, it's fun making them but when that little statement comes you just want to have mom and daddy there to hand the paperwork over it really does bite!!!

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

what happened to the raritan tolls? i have heard nothing of this.

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

they eliminated them or something...

beachbum beachbumOG 2002 ·

several north bound toll boths that have a lot of traffic have been taken out to alleviate congestion (b/c nobody seems to know how to drive thru a toll, esp the ezpass lane) and the south bound tolls are now 70 cents. they took out toms river or forked river north bound also. it's weird to see no tolls there going north.

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

Toms River is still up and Fork-ed River too. Asbury northbound is 70 and southbound zip. Raritan northbound is zip and southbound is 70. It has helped a little bit, but we'll see more of an improvement once they're done with construction.

beachbum beachbumOG 2002 ·

ah that's it. i knew it was one south of me, but i couldn't remember which one

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

I was pretty sure they were doing it every other one. So..you pass a toll but at the next one you don't. It helps traffic flow better. Also, they're supposed to install the high speed easy passes which is when you just drive under this metal bar that's stretched across the express lanes. It's cool.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

rocksupastarFounder ·

yeah, i used to have to do that, im soooooo happy with my job now... cept the working 12 hour days... that kinda stinks.. but being a minute from your house makes it a bit better.

suchgr8heights suchgr8heightsOG 2003 ·

Man I promise, she's so self conscious
She has no idea what she's doing in college
That major that she majored in don't make no money
But she won't drop out, her parents will look at her funny
Now, tell me that ain't insecurrre
The concept of school seems so securrre
Sophmore three yearrrs aint picked a careerrr
She like forget it, I'll just stay down herre and do hair
Cause that's enough money to buy her a few pairs of new Airs
Cause her baby daddy don't really care
She's so precious with the peer pressure
Couldn't afford a car so she named her daughter A-Lexus
She had hair so long that it looked like weave
Then she cut it all off now she look like Eve
And she be dealing with some issues that you can't believe
Single black female addicted to retail and well
