Dear SO and SO

noreply@blogger.com (Katie) — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 01:54:00 +0000

Dear oh pitty-me-please person:

Get over yourself! No one is going to pitty you! You don't have it that bad! There are people out there that are so worse off than you!!

Dear I never have any money:

Since you don't have any money, the reason you bought all that expensive stuff was to donate it to charity...Right? I understand that you got an extra check or something like that, but shouldn't you be spending that on bills or something?

Dear person who is so excited about a new food they made:

Can you PLEASE make sure you take that picture before you start digging in! The massive amounts of pictures you take that your food is half eaten and doesn't even look appetizing, is gross! If you forget to take a picture make up another plate and show us that way!!

Dear person on Facebook:

Facebook is a social networking site...It's not a text message! So when u update ur status using txt writing. I want to punch you!! :)

Dear person who ALWAYS posts a status about your children:

I get it..You love your kids more than anything thing in the world...But MY god, do I really need to know that they are shitting in a portable toilet in the living room??! I like the temper tantrum posts because they make me laugh, but I don't need the visual of them dropping a deuce!!

Dear "friend":

I know that we have grown apart in that last couple of years...But do you really think that your random friend change every couple of months is necessary? You "hated" this person about 6 months ago and never had a nice thing to say about them! Now you guys are like "besties" Ridiculous!

Dear people who think they are better than everyone:

Get off your god damn high horse and get over yourself! You are no better!

Dear people who think people feel sorry for them:

I'm sorry princesses but we don't. We know the real you and we aren't blind!

Dear blog checker:

I know who you are and trying to get into my blog ELEVEN times in less than an hour is fucking nuts!!! STOP! And....this is why you are blocked! (they won't even be able to read this, but I felt it needed it's special spot in this post :))

Thanks Andrea for the idea!!!

Packages...

noreply@blogger.com (Katie) — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 00:05:00 +0000

If you are waiting for a package from me...You don't have to wait much longer!!

They were all mailed out today!

Again, I'm super sorry it took so long to get them out. Packages will never take me that long to get out again.

Weird work hours and a husband away all week are the cause of it.

So, by next week they should be there!! :)

I want to apologize to everyone that hasn't received their giveaway prizes yet.

I don't usually have time to get to the post office after work and with me having to work later on some days, I really haven't been able to get to the post office...

But, don't worry...They WILL be mailed out on Tuesday...I'm leaving work a little early to make it there on time!

Again, I'm super sorry...I don't usually take this long getting packages out, but now since Scott has been working 3 hours away, I don't have him to mail out the packages like I normally have him do.

Valentine's Day

noreply@blogger.com (Katie) — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 04:08:00 +0000

I wasn't going to post a v-day recap, because I have seen SO many of them, but then I changed my mine...

It gives me something to post about! :)

Scott did good this year!! Really good!! I don't have any pictures on this new computer yet of my gift basket and my purse...So you get to see what I got today...

Edible Arrangements basket!! YUM! It came with a balloon and a box of 6 chocolate covered Strawberries! YUMMMY!!

I love the little pineapple flowers! There was pineapple hearts too! :)

The strawberries yum! they are all gone! This is all of the fruit a bug bowl and half of a big ziplock baggie!! It's a lot of fruit!

My laptop arrived! I love it!!

My stand in Valentine for the day!! He did pretty good...He slept a lot though, but when he was sleeping he was snuggled up with me! :)

I hope all of you ladies had a great Valentiane's day (whether you celebrate it or not)

Tuesday Randoms :)

~ We had such a good time in Frankenmuth this weekend! We didn't take the horse and carriage ride because it was WAY too cold out for that, but we did do some shopping and spent time together. Our friends from Lansing (the ones Scott lives with) drove up and joined us for some shopping. I drove down there myself which completely sucked! The roads were horrible. The drive ususally takes 2.5 hours. It took my 4...Yeah, FOUR! There were so many accidents and people in the ditch on my way down. There was a big pile up of a bunch of cars and the other direction was backed up for miles!

~ This weekend was super hard for me with knowing Scott was going back to home number 2. I'm not really sure why. He was suppose to go back on Sunday when I left the hotel to go home so I cried on Saturday...Then Sunday morning he said he was coming back with me and would leave on Monday morning! :) A happy surprise. But then I cried on Sunday night and then again on Monday morning before I went to work...It was rough...But I'm better now..And he'll be back in 3 days!

~ Scott got me another home made gift basket this year! :) I got a bunch of hand stamped jewelry stuff since I will be adding that to KBCC soon! He also got me a new LAPTOP!! It's suppose to arrive today!! I can't wait!

~ I didn't get him anything :( Well, I guess I did buy him a watch when we went to Kohl's...And I did order him some edible arrangements...But he has to go pick them up. They won't deliver them to him...Not sure why.

~ It's Valentine's day and I'm going home and sitting with my furbabies...I think I'm going to clean the house and cook some dinner...

~ I'm putting up my first post over at Life with the D's 2 today...Well, I guess this will be the second post, since I did a little post about why I'm heading over there... I haven't added anyone to it yet, but I will when i get on blogger tonight.

~ I haven't fully decided if I will be posting pictures on here anymore (other than review and giveaway pictures)

I think that's all I have for today....

Hope you all have a wonderful Valentine's day!!

Valentine's Day Swap Revealed!!

noreply@blogger.com (Katie) — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 22:17:00 +0000

I joined in with the Valentine's Day Swap hosted by Tara at Fabulous but evil, Celia, and Meg

My partner was Janna from Perception is Everything!

She got me some sour Jelly Belly's, a cute card, some nail files and some glittery lip gloss!!

Thanks Janna!!

I don't have just one thing to talk about, so I will use bullet points today!

I didn't get crap for sleep yesterday and I felt like I was sleep working!! I went to bed about 12:30 and work up about 5 times...Ugh! I did get to get out of work 2 hours early though!!
I will be doing a vlog in the next couple of days. I did one a couple nights ago and hated it, so I'm not posting it! I'll add a linky to the end of it, so if anyone wants to do one and join in that would be cool!
This weekend Scott is not coming home...BUT we are meeting up in Frankenmuth to spend the weekend and then hitting the Birch Run outlets!! A new coachie, here I come! :) I also need a new pair of Tennis Shoes...I have had the ones I wear all the time for awhile and I love them, but they are dyed blue from the bottom of my pants getting wet and rubbing on my shoes!
I'm adding hand stamped jewelry to KBCC!! I have wanted to do this for a LONG time, and finally decided to order some supplies and will be working on somethings and in the next month or so, everything will be updated!
My dad cooked my dinner last night and Scott's mom made me dinner the night before...I'm definitely getting taken care of when Scott's gone! :)
I'm taking Oscar over to Scott's moms house today so he can spend the weekend with them! :) I'm also picking up Scott's moms car so I can drive that downstate, since I don't want to drive the old Saturn down there.
Yoshi is super clingy with me during the week! I think he missing Scott a lot and figures snuggling with me will help! :)
I'm starting a new blog and it will be Private. I will continue to post stuff on here that isn't just reviews and giveaways, but I want to keep somethings more private. Even though I have taken care of somethings with this blog, I still feel that I need to move to a private blog for somethings I write. Apparently, I can't write my feelings (whether people think they are true or not) without getting shit for it. Who knows how long I will keep the private blog, but for right now I feel I need a little privacy! If you would like to follow me there, email me or leave your email address here!

Our Love Story!!

noreply@blogger.com (Katie) — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 00:50:00 +0000

So, one of my favorite blogs to read is hosting a link up called "Our love story", I think this is a cute idea!! A good way to learn more things about people!!

Thank you Mrs. to Mama for hosting this!!

1. How long have you and your significant other been together?

We have been together for 11 years in September...On my birthday!! :) Married for almost 9.

2. How did you meet? {What's your "love" story?}

We both worked at a movie theater in town. He was one of my bosses! :) We dated three times! The first time we dated for awhile and the second time we dated was pretty much a joke, because he just started dating me again, so he could break up with me that time! We got together for the third time because his friend told him I was still interested in him. We hated each other after the second time we dated! Then 2 months later we were engaged!

3. If married, how long have you been married? If not, is this the guy you hope to marry? {do tell}

We are married! :) We have been married for 9 years in July! :)

4. If you are married, where did you get married at? Big or small wedding? If not, where would you like to get married? And will it be big or small?

We got married in a church. It was a small wedding, but the reception had a lot of people!

5. Do you have any nick-names that you call one another? Do share!

We usually just call each other Hun or honey...I call him boo boo :) he may or may not be mad I told people! :) haha

6. Name 3 things you love most about your honey.

His smile, His fun personality, and how he is such an amazing husband!!

7. Tell us how he proposed? Or your ideal proposal?

I think I just answered this on a "ask me anything" post, but I will write it again! We went to the mall and ended up looking at rings and he said to me "so, do you wanna?" I loved it! I had told him before that if he was going to propose to just ask me (lame, I know) but I didn't need a big engagement and that I would laugh if he got down on one knee! :) haha

8. Is he a flowers and teddy bear kind of guy for v-day, or strawberries, champagne, and rose petals?

Flowers and teddy bear kind of guy! And I LOVE it!! I love flowers!!

9. Are you a sunset dinner on the beach kind of girl, or pop a movie in and relax on the couch?

Pop a movie in and relax on the couch!! Although sunset on the beach would be nice too, if it isn't 100 degrees outside!

10. Tell us one thing you'd like to do with your significant one day. If you could do anything? Go anywhere?

I would like to just travel the world. Our most favorite thing to do together is take trips! We love spending the quality time together and visit new places.

11. Tell us what you plan on doing on this Valentine's Day.

Don't be jealous...But I'm going to work, coming home and being alone! :) haha...Scott works 3 hours away, so we don't get to spend Valentine's day together this year. But we are heading downstate this weekend to spend the weekend away together. We are pretty much doing the same things we did LAST V-day

12. Are you asking for anything this Valentine's day?

I don't think I usually ask for anything on V-day other than flowers. Last year, I did mention something to him that he has never bought me a gift basket, so instead of buying a pre-made one, he made his own and it was awesome!!!

13. Give us one piece of advice of keeping a relationship strong and full of love.

Don't fight...I have seen some many marriages break up because all they do is fight! There is really no need to argue with each other in a marriage. Talk through it! Love each other more everyday!

14. Show us a picture of what love means to you.

Picture Update and a request....

noreply@blogger.com (Katie) — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 03:49:00 +0000

We will start with the request...My (Michigan) blog Friend Kelly had an MRI and it shows that they will have to remove a glioma from her occipital lobe :( The sucky part of this is, is that when they remove it, she might lose the vision in both right sides of her eyes :( If it stays and keeps growing then it will effect her speech, motor skills, etc. So, the best thing to do it remove it.

She has such a big heart and she it such a fighter!! She can do this! And she will!! She's a tough cookie!! She doesn't let this get her down!! She just keeps on keeping on!! So please head over HERE and send her some love!!! Let her know that you are thinking about her!! She's a totally fighter!!

(Kelly, you totally are a strong one!! YOU CAN DO THIS!!)

Ok time for the photo updates!!

They are on their way to the post office on Wednesday!! Sorry, giveaway winners! My hours have sucked at work and that's the earliest day I can get there!! Please forgive me!!

I have done this with my hair twice now...You twist wet sections (small) of your hair tight and then twist them in little buns and bobby pin them to your head and wake up the next day with super curly afro-ish hair! :) haha

Oscar was super pissed that I did a 12 hour shift at work tonight!! He pooped on the floor and tore up Yoshi's scratchy thingy!!

My cats an odd character!! He loves going in plastic bags!!

Oscar lays really goofy on furniture! :)

OUR NEW COUCH!! I LOVE IT!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH BREA!!!!!!!!

Your questions...Answered!! :)

noreply@blogger.com (Katie) — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 02:29:00 +0000

First of all, I want to thank you all for asking me questions and giving me blog material!! I know I begged some of you and THANK YOU for asking them!! :)

All from Formspring: (All are annoynomous)

What's the last movie you saw in a theater?

I'm pretty sure it was Paranormal Activity 3...We don't go to a lot of movies...I don't usually have the patience to sit through movies and our theaters here SUCK!

Do you have siblings? Are you close with them?

I do. I have an older sister. We aren't that close, but I wish we were. With everything that is going on I wish I was closer with her.

What is it that Scott does that makes you angry? Annoyed? Pissed off?

Scott doesn't usually do anything to piss me off. But he does do things that annoy me. Like when I ask him to do something like with the house and it takes months to do it. It annoys me only sometimes when he's always grabbing at my boobs and butt, but that's what guys do and he's done it for years, so I can usually block it out! :)

If you had the chance, would you buy another dog? Cat?

I would get another dog in a heartbeat! I'm actually looking for another one. Just for something for me to do while Scott is out of town. I have Oscar and Yoshi now, but they aren't very entertaining! :) And a cat...Probably not...I love Yoshi (although I hate to admit it) but he is messy! and stinky! I like dogs when I can toss them outside and they can shit and piss.

Do you have names picked out for your kids?

We sure do! And I'm one that will actually share them! People can steal them if they want, but I will still name my kids these names. Boy: Xander Perry Girl: Sophia Kimarie. Kimarie is not a name, but Scott's dads name was Kim and we want to incorporate his name in our children's name somehow, so we went with that and Marie is my moms, his moms and my sisters middle name.

When are you planning on having kids?

I have no doubt in my mind that Scott and I would be really good parents, but I go back and forth with this a lot. I'm not sure....We aren't preventing it, so yes, it could happen. There might be a time when we really "start" trying (I consider us somewhat trying with not doing anything to prevent it), but I will do only up to taking clomid. I wont put myself through all the IVG, IVF stuff. I know some of you are and I'm not bashing it AT ALL. I just am very sensitive when it comes to medication stuff and I don't want to wind up being really ill and not being able to enjoy my pregnancy.

*~*~*~*~*~*

From Jennifer:

How did Scott propose to you?

We had talked about getting married for a little while. So one day we had headed to the mall to go shopping and ended up going into a jewelry store and we started looking through engagement rings and he looked at me and said "so, do you wanna?" Best. proposal. ever!! :)

Did you take a honeymoon?

We did towards the end of the year. I had just started my job in May, and we got married in July, so I didn't want to take a lot of time off just yet. I think it was November of December, we headed to the U.P and spent some time up there.

What country is on your must visit list?

I guess I would have to say Italy.

Do you have a green thumb or do you kill plants?

:) I kill plants! :) We don't have any in our house and when we first moved into this house, my mom and I planted flowers out front and in a week they were dead! We get hanging baskets of flowers almost every year and I always kill them! :)

What is your favorite breakfast?

Bacon and Potatoes. I'm not a big fan of eggs, but will eat them sometimes. But I can only eat scrambled eggs because if the yolk isn't cooked I get migraines. But I will take the migraine every once in awhile just so I can eat those kind of eggs! :)

*~*~*~*~*

From Brittney:

If you could live any where in the world where would it be. money no object?

I would live in Niagara Falls, Canada. I LOVE Canada! And since money is no object then I could afford their expensive stuff! :)

What is your favorite tv show?

Roseann and The Golden Girls. For the shows that are not old shows, I like The real world, Teen Mom, and more stuff like that.

What is one thing you wish you could change about yourself or your husband?

I would like to be less emotional and not let people walk all over me. I think I'm getting better with not letting people walk all over me, but I enjoy doing things for people and have a hard time saying no. With Scott, I don't really know what I would want to change.

What is your dream job?

I think I would love to be a Drug and Alcohol Counselor. I would also love to own my own home for adults with disabilities.

*~*~*~*~*

From Sarah:

What makes Yoshi so evil? You always mention he is a psycho evil cat...how so? :)

If you saw what this cat does, you would think the same thing! :) haha...He goes tearing ass throughout the house all the time! He lays there and stares at you! :)

Do you watch the "real housewives of wherever"? If yes, WHY? What is the appeal?

I do not watch them. I really have no interest in watching those shows.

Have you ever seen the show "Bridezillas"? There are old episodes on Netflixs, these chicks are f-ing nuts!

I actually have seen a couple episodes of them. The ladies are fricken nuts!!

*~*~*~*~*

From Kimberly:

What is your favorite blog?

I don't really have a favorite blog.

When sending cards do u send funny ones or mushy ones?

I like to send funny ones. I'm not really a mushy person.

Thanks again ladies for asking some questions!!

You all can keep on asking me questions and I will continue answering them!! :)

This is a long one...Rambling and all over the place! Read if you want!

Having a friend end a friendship is hard...But having a friend end a friendship and not know why is a little harder and hurts!

I have always thought that this "friend" was a true friend. I thought they were a better "friend" to my than my IRL friends...We talked a lot (although, I rarely talked to this "friend" on the phone and it was mainly text messaging. This is how we communicated in the beginning of the "friendship," and this "friend" was fully aware that I hated talking on the phone, but if they really needed me and really needed to talk to me, I was there on the phone), I sent gifts for this "friend" as well as some for this "friends" child. I texted this "friend" through out some difficult times when I was at work when I wasn't suppose to have my cellphone at all, because this "friend" needed me and I wanted to be there for this "friend". I gave this "friend" advice when they needed and wanted it, I was there for this "friend" when they needed someone to talk to about life and family drama. I was there for this "friend" a lot.

The last couple of months I haven't really talked to this "friend", but I would text to see how this "friend" was doing, and see what they had been up to. This person started seeming really distant, yet I still checked in every now and then to see how they were doing. It came really obvious to me that this "friend" had became really close with other people and I was just pushed aside. I hated this, but I wasn't going to question it. The last month or so, it was down to about once or twice a week text messaging (who knows if this was intentional. I don't think it was, because there are somethings going on with this "friend") I think it was the fact that I was not that "friend" that liked to talk on the phone and they had other friends that were willing to talk on the phone. But like I said earlier, I would of dropped what I was doing if this "friend" wanted to talk or needed to talk to me.

But anyways...Yesterday, I texted this "friend" and got no response. I didn't think anything of it because, like I said this person is going through some rough times right now...So then, yesterday, I go to write on this "friends" Facebook wall to say hi and check in and to see how they were doing and I clicked it and it shows up, you are not so and so's friend...Woah!! Wait, what!?! Umm...What the hell... So I sent this "friend" a text message saying I see that you deleted me from Facebook, what's going on...I heard nothing back...So, I sent this "friend" an email...Didn't hear anything back...So I sent one more text message and still haven't heard anything back...So, this so called "friend" is done...I have not a clue what I did.

I was questioned by this "friend" earlier this week about my bitching post if it was about them and it wasn't...It was about this girl I went to school with, my cousin and my sister...But they would of known that if we were talking that week...Like I said I have been working crazy hours this last month or so, so I know I wasn't putting in as much effort as I usually do. But that's what happens with friends...They don't talk for awhile or here and there randomly...It happens...Life gets the best of us sometimes. So I asked this "friend"...Why would you think it's about you? They went on to say something, then I assured this"friend" it wasn't about them, because it wasn't...

When I needed this"friend" the most, this "friend" wasn't there for me. It hurt! I had been texting this "friend" to support them when I could of gotten fired for using my phone at work. I spent lots of time texting this "friend" when they were having issues with the family. Why did I do it? Because I cared...Because I was under the impression that this was a "BBFF" and it wasn't! When everything went on with my sister, I texted this "friend" about it, this "friend" responded, but didn't seem like they wanted to be there for me. After the one time I texted them about it, I never heard a "how is your sister?" How are you doing? I thought that's what friends were supposed to do? I guess I was highly mistaken.

Anyways...I'm rambling...

I just have to say, if a "friendship" can end over I don't know what and they can't even tell me why they deleted me and wont answer anything, then this wasn't even a friendship...I feel used! I feel like I gave this "friendship" a lot and this person used me for support and for gifts. But since this "friend" became closer with other people, I wasn't needed anymore! And you know what...I'm done...I emailed, texted this "friend" and called...And I got nothing...So, I'm done! I don't need this shit in my life. I have enough going on! I don't need to be used, I don't need to feel bad for not talking on the phone all the time, for not giving more than I gave in this friendship...

So, to this friend (because I know they are still checking this blog) I hope things get better for you. I hope you have a good life. And if you want to stop another friendship with someone else...At least tell them why...At least give them that! Don't make it seem like they are the bad guy. I did nothing to you! Nothing I had posted in that post was about you! You may disagree with things in that post, but guess what...Friends agree to disagree!

I know someone of you are going to disagree with this post, and that's OK...I wrote it for me...For me to get my feelings out. You can say what you want to say about this. I was not the bad guy, I did nothing wrong to be treated like this! I at least deserve a reason behind this! But I know I wont get anything!

*Update*
Let me just say that this "friend" also bought me gifts.

I'm joining in...

Vapor4Life Review and Giveaway

noreply@blogger.com (Katie) — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 00:02:00 +0000

My sister was recently able to review an electronic cigarette from Vapor4Life.

My sister received the Ultimate Kit with Diamond batteries, two packs of cartons and some samples. My sister chose the 18mg Vapor King Kamel. She also received some different flavors and one of them was Strawberry which she loved!

The really great thing about electronic cigarettes is that you can pretty much smoke them wherever you want! They do have a small vapor that comes out of them, but there is no tobacco leaf in them and when she was smoking them around me, I couldn't smell a thing!

These are all rechargeable, so when one dies, you don't have to throw it away you just plug it back in and charge it up and you are back in business!

You can charge it up to 300 times, they come in tons of colors. They also have a lot of different flavors and nicotine in a bunch of different strengths.

If you are a smoker and you are looking for a smoking alternative, head over to Vapor4Life and check them out!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

GIVEAWAY

Vapor4Life is giving one of my readers the stuff listed below:

V4L Ultimate Starter Kit

~ 2 Diamond Batteries

~ 1 USB powered pass-through

~ 1 Carrying case

~ 1 pack of cartomizers

~ 1 USB charger

~ 1 wall charger

Valentine's Day Heart Shaped Cookie Review

noreply@blogger.com (Katie) — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 23:35:00 +0000

I recently had the chance to review some heart shaped cookies from Smiley Cookies!

I have review their normal round Smiley cookies before and I loved them! This time was no different!

With Valentine's Day coming up you can't go wrong with getting Valentine Day cookies! These cookies are so cute and they are PINK! My favorite! These cookies are so good! I'm a big fan of sugar cookies, but can never find any in the store that are actually any good. Of course, I can make my own but who wants to do that! :). They are soft, full of flavor, and just so cute and fun to eat! These cookies with totally cheer someone up and are perfect for your sweetheart or your children!

Smiley cookies are perfect for everyone! They even carry Valentines Day gift baskets! You get 2 dozen of these wonderful tasting, super cute cookies in a really cute box! Did I mention the box that I received my cookies in? How cute is this?

It's a box just full of fun! It's a very sturdy box, so you can keep it to use it for other things!

If you haven't tried these cookies yet, I don't know what you are waiting for?! Perfectly iced and just smiling back at you, who wouldn't love them? Did I mention that they are super affordable?

So, go ahead and order some! Right now when you order you can take 10% off when you use the code BLOG10 at check out!! (code can be used for anything on the website, except gift cards)

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Somethings I needed to get off my chest!

I just feel the need to bitch about somethings...So, I'm going to do it here!

~ I hate it when someone calls you their "best friend," but they never tell you anything and you find it all out on Facebook! Ummm, I thought we were "best friends!!" Best friends tell each other everything? Right? No? I must be confused!!

~ I hate it when people take advantage of other people! I have bought stuff for friends and sent friends cards and letters and just other things, and I get nothing in exchange! I know I shouldn't bitch about it and I know I shouldn't expect things back, but you give and give and give and get nothing in return, it gets really fricken old! I'm done going that extra mile for people and friends!

~ I hate when people are all about them...Really? You have a husband and a child, it's no longer just about you!

~ I hate it when people tell me that can't do something because of whatever reason, but then you see or hear that they are doing it? Remember people, I am your friend on Facebook and when I see that you are writing this stuff, but are telling me that you can't do it, it really pisses me off!

~ I'm refusing to trade products for blocks now! I feel like I was so taken advantage of and it just pissed me off! I received the product and I LOVED the product, but the way that the business was handled, I felt screwed!

~ I HATE that when I ask people to put things for a giveaway, then they can't hold up their end of the deal! If you can't do what you said you were going to do, just tell me no you can't do it....I'm not going to be pissed off...I will totally understand!

~ I hate when people make me feel bad about something! Something that I had nothing to do with! Someone tells me about a cause or something like that and gives me the guilt trip about it! So that I feel guilt-ed enough to put more in than I should be...

~ This may seem very harsh, but I can't stand when people who have an illness take totally advantage of it! I have met a couple of people that are sick with stuff and they think people need to be there for them all the time! That it's all about them! I get it. I understand you are sick. I'm sorry that this has happened to you and I wish that it didn't happen to you or anyone, but it did and you are OK. Mainly the people that have a small illness that is going away. I have PCOS, should I have people bow down to me or kiss my ass? No, I don't even talk about it on here! Very few people know that I have it. I have stupid side effects to it and I bitch about it. But never do I make those that know I have it make them feel bad for me!

*SIGH* I feel much better now! :) Thanks for listening! :)
