Just wanted to let everyone know that we are currently in the process of updating the site. We will be requiring some sort of registration. SORRY.. Thanks to the evil spammers in the world they are forcing us to do so. Please bear with us, until we are up and running again.
I have been searching for a career change as of late. It has been daunting searching the country for an office that could handle me. My issue doesnt come with the no call backs however, my issue comes with job searches such as Monster.com.
Monster as most of you know is probably the #1 job search engine available. It is really a great site. I have sent my resume to many of their postings, which is where my issue comes. 99% of the time I get the stupid question of race and sex. I would like to answer it with no I walk and yes, they don't offer those. As I am clicking white female I realize I haven't a chance in H E double hockey sticks, to get these jobs. Ok well maybe half a chance, I am a female after all. That supposed disadvantage is a supposed advantage in work world.
It used to be you didn't have to answer these questions. The employer had to work a little harder for the info. Step 1. Go through applications and based on which sex you want go by name Step 2. Take out any foreign names, you want American Step 3. Because names such as Jones, Smith, and Washington can be deceiving you must interview to find out race Step 4. Check out the tits, if you are going for a female, check out studliness if going male Step 5. Hire who you want because that is your job. When are we through with Affirmative Action? I really would like to know.
Well its that time of year.. I really don't remember if I have ever held true to a New Years Resolution.. This year will be different. So my New Years resolution for blogitright.com is as follows: I will have an updated site by the 2nd week of January (2007 of course) I will get back to my cute, charming, insightful entries (ok starting with the next entry).
I fell blogitright needs a new look with its original feel, so bear with me a few days while I try and add somethings and get my mind back.
Many will be enjoying Monday off, as this is a holiday weekend. Monday we will be celebrating Labor day. I would like to share with you how I will be celebrating my weekend.
I will be kicking off the weekend tonight with an Extreme Motocross show. Very cool and should be a lot of fun to watch if it doesn't get rained out. I will wake up in the morning to go get my nails done. I would say it has been oh about 2 years, since I last treated my self to human looking hands and feet. Sounds like a pretty exciting weekend doesn't it?? Wait here is where it gets good.
After I am doing getting pampered, I must say goodbye to my puppies and head north with my boyfriend.. TO BOULDER, Colorado aka the Berkley of the Rockies.. No I am not a day late on the Ramsey murder case, I am going to a wedding. This, however is not an ordinary wedding.
My boyfriend and the groom have been bff (sorry babe) since, well forever. The groom is a pretty big Liberal, who just received his PHD from, Yale or something like that. (big whoop right ; ) ) He is a really super nice guy and he loves to debate with my major republican boyfriend. He is Jewish and they love to debate religion as well, calling each other names they can only get away with with each other. He is marrying a super liberal "Hispanic" Catholic. She is however more liberal than Catholic. She is also a soon to be graduated doctor, and believes in the year 2006 that abortions are safer than giving birth. Lord help us..
So quick recap... Jewish/Catholic wedding in Boulder where a union of two wacko libs will become one.. Her family will all most likely faint at the realization that their little Catholic Hispanic daughter is marrying a white Jew. The Sunday wedding will start off with a small private Jewish ceremony, which few will witness, where the bride must sign a contract stating that any and all children will be raised Jewish. Perfect!!! The wedding ceremony will be mixed with both religions. The reception will be quite formal and will be featuring a Mariachi band. We will most likely be fiestaing (is that a word).. with the grooms major hot brother. I would warn my boyfriend that he may loose me except the brothers date will be a male. Oh and did I mention to top it all off it is in Boulder!!!!!!!!
What did I do to deserve this weekend??? Ah the things we do for the love of friends and family.
I appologize for my absence. I am back today after a bad bout of food poisoning. Check back in this evening!
76 more days.. Less then 2 1/2 months.. That is how much time I have left. As each day passes I can feel it coming closer. No, I am not suffering from a deathly disease. I am turning 30.
I know in my mind, this is not a bad thing, definitely better than the alternative. I am not sure what I am expecting to happen. Perhaps the morning of my birthday I will wake up with gray hair, wrinkles, and shriveled up ovaries.
I am happy in my life I have a great boyfriend, 2 dogs, a house, a car, and a job to support it all,well the boyfriend supports himself (also a plus). What could I possibly be worried about turning 30? Everything! Nothing! I don't know!! Oh God I think I am going to puke now.. Morning sickness?? No, my head is just spinning..
Yes, part of my problem is that I am almost 30, no husband no child. A few years ago I was proud of that. Now when people ask my marital/baby status, I zone out and picture my house full of cats. I try and convince myself that my current status is much better than, A. Being divorced with kids, B. Having no-one and nothing. How can I know that, but yet still feel like the world is coming to an end?
Worse than convincing myself is convincing others. My friends, family and coworkers, think that if I don't have a ring on my finger by my birthday I will jump off a tall building. My mother has a friend who owns a baby store(no they don't sell babies, only baby stuff). I think she started putting things on layaway several years ago. My mom continually tells me that she knows I will do all the married stuff when I am ready and she is not worried about it. Yeah Right.. She has begun to call my puppies, her grand babies. Worse, I call them my babies..
A few months ago I decided I wanted to do roller derby, unfortunately that didn't pan out. The same week I decided I wanted to knock out girls while rollerskating in a circle, I got my belly button pierced. OH NO, signs of a midlife crisis?? Thank god I am a female, or I would have joined hair club for men and bought a convertible.. This weekend I noticed an abundance of cellulite in my thighs. I am not fat, not even chubby, I look HOT in clothes, just don't take me out of them.. My boyfriends best friend dates a 19 year old. Skinny, blond, young, ( I have bigger boobs..) I have her beat in the cute department and the brain department but I refuse to let her look better then me in a bikini.. I ran (drove) to the store to buy an elliptical machine. What a change from the weekend before when I was ticked off that a store clerk asked me for my I.D. to purchase a lottery ticket. You only have to be 18 to buy one.
Its all good, 30 is just a number right?? Does anyone have any Valium?
Ok, some say I am going through a midlife crisis. I say I am too young for that. I have long had a dream to do roller derby. Don't laugh!! So I have contacted a league in my area, and am looking into joining up. First things first, I need a name!!! Come on help me out..

Last night was my third tattoo removal session, check out details
A friend of mine has requested I do an entry on a problem she is having. Here is her story... "Jeni" is in her late 20's. She has a daughter from a relationship in highschool. That relationship ended, quickly and the father has never been in either her or her daughters life. Jeni and her daughter lived with her parents. Jeni had an active social life, and her parents often took care of her daughter so Jeni could go out. Jeni met a guy about 3 years ago. "Brian" was quite the partier, and had to change things if he wanted to be with Jeni and her daughter. Jeni got pregnant and they married. Brian went back and forth with his old ways, and after several back and forths they are now going through a divorce. Jeni and the two kids are back at home, and she is currently looking for a job. Now Jeni is talking to Jeff. Jeff is a friend from her past who has always been infactuated with Jeni. They have continued to have a friendship while Jeni was married. Jeff sent flowers to Jeni before she was married, and it has always been clear he wants more than what they have. She however has not wanted the same. Although Jeff is super nice and sweet, and knows everything about Jeni, she has no physical attraction to him. So her email to me this morning read: well, i have gone out with that Jeff guy like 4 times in 3 months and we email all the time and talk a few times a week. he is so nice and just one of those nice guys who gets overlooked. i seem to always have tendancies to the jerk guys and am totally out of that phase. but here's the issue: i am not attracted to him at all and he wrote me today and said he thinks he's in love with me...........can you continue a relationship with someone you have no attraction to and eventually have it? i don't know if this is a topic for your blog but who knows. i need some answers. Alrighty guys you heard the lady... What do you think? If you have any questions, just ask.
Who'd a thunk it?? Well the Vatican has rightfully come out(excuse the pun) saying that gays "with deep seated" homosexual tendencies cannot be priests. But for those of you who are on the edge, don't worry if you can go three whole years without a gay thought you can be a priest too!
So here are my questions: Since homosexuality is against God's will, how does a homosexual say they want to be a Priest and actually want to be a Priest? Are some still trying to make a correlation between homosexuals and pedophiles? Do some homosexuals join the Priesthood just to avoid the gay lifestyle? Is a gay priest ban a surprise? How long will it take for the ACLU to raise holy heck?
We can be quite sure that this will cause an uproar in the gay community but I can't help but wonder why. I also wonder why the Vatican had to come out with a document stating this. Has affirmative action reached the heights of the Vatican? 1 in 4 priests must be gay or else..
How many of you have met the man/woman of your dreams, then realized in a matter of months they were anything but? We have all probably not only gone through that once but several times. So what happens when you throw children into that equation? Sally is a single mom, she meets a guy and thinks he could be the one. Within weeks he is spending the night, spending the week, and slowly moving in becoming a make shift daddy. The kids love him and think he is the coolest then mom all of a sudden realizes he isn't. So there he goes. Sally meets another guy and repeats the whole situation over and over again, desperate to find a new dad for the kids. What she doesn't understand is that these kids have had so many "dads for a month" they are completely over it. They finally realize that not only should they stop forming these relationships with guy of the week but also that their mom (how should we say??) changes men more often then she does the laundry.. Mom maybe just trying to find happiness for herself but has she forgotten that she has kids at home? Let's not forget this goes both ways moms and dads. When you find yourself back in the dating scene as a single parent are there rules? Shouldn't you really be sure that this new relationship is the real thing before subjecting your children to numerous fill in parents? Do children suddenly become not so important when you are bar hopping? I know some single parents whose kids have gone through relationship after relationship with their parents, only to suffer more and more. Should you give up your love life? No, you should however put a little more thought into when the right time is to bring them onto the scene. You keep bringing home partner after partner then you wonder why when you do get married and bring in a real step parent your kids don't form that parent/child bond. Way to be a roll model.. just what you want your daughter bringing home a different guy everyday and your son knocking up multiple girls. Yeah I know that may be stretching it.. but don't be shocked. Children are supposed to be the most important thing in a parents life when does that change? I mean unless you can get childsupport out of all these parental temps, whats the point?
