"Z's" Accident

"Z" went to a friends house after dinner Monday night. Which is nothing new, sometimes it's like I am a drive threw restaurant. He eats, cleans up, and leaves. The only difference is that I am free.

So I get a call about 8 p.m from him and the first thing out of his mouth was " Some lady just hit "A" and I with her car and drove away!"

Whoa, wait a minute, I think.

"Are you ok?" I asked

"Yes, but my arm hurts a little bit." he replied

So I walked down to the friends house and by then "A's" mom had called the police an reported a hit and run. With in a few minutes the fire department and E.M.S showed up. They checked out the boys and for the most part they were ok. Just a little shook up.

I had "Z" go to the emergency room anyways, I know from experience that you can never be to sure. "Z" was saying he was ok, but he kept holding his arm up against his chest and not moving it. E.M.S determined it was not broken, but I felt he needed to be seen.

So we got to the hospital and my husband (after having a few drinks and now annoyed) meets us there, they checked him out and did an x-ray. No broken arm, just bruised. The police showed up and ask "Z' what was going on. He told them that a lady hit him and took off. They told us that she did take off, but called when she got home to report it. (This will require another post.)

To sum it all up, most importantly "Z" is ok, my husband is a royal asshole and some lady hit my kid and drove away. Two rants are on the way!

2007 All-Star Home Run Derby

Last night was the 2007 Home Run Derby, and I missed it. "Z" had an accident which kept us in the E.R for a few hours.

So as I am watching to the introductions, I hear this vaguely familiar voice, my husband starts to laugh and he says "You know who that is, right honey?"

I said "Sounds vaguely familiar."

Next thing I know, they show him, Chris "Booomer" Berman ...(painful memories return)

To my amazement this man was lookin like a slob. His jacket sleeves were approximately 6 inches to small and his pants were wrinkled. Now this man has money, for goodness sake, he lives in Greenwich, Ct. You'd figure that he would be a little better dressed than that. Who ever is buyin his clothes needs to be fired and if he does it himself, well I guess he needs to make a trip to Men's Wearhouse and get measured properly.

So anyway, my husband and I, once again, had a few good laughs and all I can say is, I wish I could have watched it, cause I would of had more to say.

Thinks to self "I wonder if anyone shook his hand?"

7-Toed Kitten Born To a 7-Toed Cat

and you'll never guess when..7/7/07!!! I tried to find a story but no such luck..no pun intended. But you can click here to see a slide show.

Come on People, Get A Job!!

How many times do I have to tell that person who is begging for money or cigarettes “NO” I mean come on now.

Last week I blogged about a guy with a gas can (man #1). Since then I was asked by another man (man #2), who I might add looked pretty clean and together, a lady on 4th of July asking for a cigarette (lady #1) and man #2 again this morning (I never forget a face, maybe a name, never a face!!)

This is how it is going to go down the next time someone asks me for something

Lazy person “Excuse me Ma’am, excuse me, would you happen to have spare change or maybe and extra cigarette?”

Me “ Ummm, extra change? Let’s see..NO..I spend $45.00 a day to send my son to private counseling, $ 2.50 a day for ice coffee and $5.25 a day on cigerettes. All that on a salary of around $120.00 a day. You tell me where I have extra money to give to you!
As for the extra cigarette, you give me 50 cents of the money you just received from begging and I will consider it. Heck, I get 20 in a pack just like everyone else, further more the last time I checked it wasn’t buy 20 get one free!!!"

Done!!
