Random Thursday Thoughts

1. It's totally cool that the Rangers lost last night because I have every reason to believe that they will bring the series back to Texas and beat the crap out of the Yankees. They deserve it, and the Yankees can suck it. 
2. Vitamins taste like poop. I don't like put them in my mouth and let them melt or anything, but for the 2.5 seconds that they are in my mouth, they taste like poop! I hate it! Why can't they taste better? And  no, I don't want to take the gummies or Flinstones. They taste bad either way. I'm not lowering myself to gummy standard. 
3. I think things are picking up in life. I think good things are afoot and it's exciting! 
4. I'm seriously tired of being on antibiotics, but thankfully, I'm almost done. 
5. I've worked out twice in two days and it felt good. I'm going to keep rolling with this work out thing I think. I know, two days not very impressive, but hey, two days leads to 200. :)
6. Today's is Colleen's birthday. I wish we lived closer so we could get together for lunch or something. 
7. Going to Arkansas this weekend. Mixed emotions. Hopefully sis in law's sorority is filled with nice, non-judgmental girls!
8. I really hope lots of kiddos show up to Trunk or Treat next weekend. The hubs and I are part of a 6 person leadership team for it and if it doesn't go well that will SUCK!!!
9. My grams is the best! She made a poodle skirt for me for said trunk or treat. Yesterday she tells me "It looks really cute. I did a really good job" made me giggle. 
10. I sure am tired today. I slept well, but the hubs got up at like 4 and that seriously puts a damper on your morning. Thank goodness for Mt.Dew at 7:00AM!

Some ranting and raving and a plea for your help...

Let's get the annoying things out there first:

1. I cannot stand people who cut other people off when they know the lay out of the road. Example: I have to get on the highway every morning to make it to work. In order to do so, I have to wait in a long line of cars to enter the on-ramp.  Some douchebags prefer to drive in the middle lane until the smallest of openings appears in the left lane and then they cut off everyone who has been waiting patiently to enter the highway. IT ANNOYS ME. Mostly because I see a lot of the same people doing it EVERY DAY. What makes you any more important than me? The fact that you know I'm not going to ram you because I don't want the claim on my insurance!? I HATE IT. And I want to flip them off but unfortunately I don't because it's early and I don't feel quite that bitchy yet. 
2. Bandwagon sports fans. As you know, our beloved Texas Rangers have made it past the divisional series and are now on their way to the next round of playoff games!!! WOOT WOOT! This morning as I'm warming up my yummy oatmeal, I hear someone say "Yeah, I'm a Rangers fan. I mean, the Cowboys aren't doing anything so.." Ok. First rule of sports talk....it doesn't make you a fan just because you've decided to watch them play in the playoffs. You are a bandwagon fan and you suck! I have watched the Rangers for YEARS. YEARS! and I have stood by them through good times and through bad (mostly bad, let's face it). But I AM a Rangers FAN and I can say that because I have been heartbroken with them and excited with them. You on the other hand, probably don't even know who plays what position! ASSHATS!
3. I had a third but I forgot it. Maybe I'll remember before the end of this post...

 Here's where I need your help all ye in internet land:
As most of you know because I know most of you, I am climbing 1,040 steps in honor of my friend Preston this January. (January 29, 2011 to be exact). I need your help! I would LOVE if you would choose to come walk with me and all of Preston's friends for this event. But if you cannot, then you can simply donate in his honor on my page! (sneaky, right?) I know that most of us are young and money is a precious commodity, but Preston was an amazing person and he deserves to live on in whatever ways possible. He believed in the work that the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society does and he supported our fundraising efforts for them. The Big D Climb is an event put on by LLS and all donations will be given to them. If you think you might want to donate, go to this page: http://ntx.bigdclimb.llsevent.org/tiffytrox. If you think you might want to commit to climbing 1,040 steps, go to www.bigdclimb.org and look around. If you choose to do so, sign up with Team KLOZW and team captain Derek Trabon. We'll be there and we know Preston will be at the top waiting for us. 

Still don't remember what rant #3 was...boo.
