Boyfriend 5.0 Uprade

I just read this from our IT department this morning I thought it was pretty funny and decided to share it with you guys. Enjoy!

Boyfriend 5.0 Upgrade

Dear Tech Support:

Last year I upgraded Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a slow down in the performance of the flower and jewelry applications that had operated flawlessly under the Boyfriend 5.0 system. In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs such as Romance 9.9 but installed undesirable programs such as NFL 7.4, NBA 3.2 and NHL 4.1.
Conversation 8.0 also no longer runs and housecleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system.
I've tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems but to no avail. What can I do?

signed,
Desperate

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Dear Desperate:

First keep in mind that Boyfriend 5.0 was an entertainment package while Husband 1.0 is an operating system. Try entering command C:/ I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME and installing Tears 6.2. Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Guilt 3.3 and Flowers 7.5
But remember, overuse can cause Husband 1.0 to default to such background applications as Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0 or Beer 6.1. Please remember Beer 6.1 is a very bad program that will create Snoring Loudly WAV files. DO NOT install Mother-in-Law or another Boyfriend program. These are not supported applications and will crash the Husband 1.0 to default to the program Girlfriend 9.2 which runs in the background and has been known to introduce potentially serious viruses into the operating system.

In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program but it does have a limited memory and can't learn new applications quickly. You might consider bying additional software to enhance his system performance.

Good Luck,
Tech support

Why plan anything?

Didn't I last post whenever you plan things, somehow they have to get out of wack.
We had a get together last night with some friends and come to find out everyone schedule has been changed. So basically there is no way our free time correspond to do anything at all together.
I was just staring in the open and thinking to myself now I really have time to spend reading a whole lot more than I already do.
Because I have been suppressing the urge to watch too much TV. I only watch 3 or 4 shows:
- Nip / Tuck
- Prison Break
- Charmed
- "Real Time with Bill Maher" ( this show is hilarious)
sometimes my mom gets me to watch with her Unsolved mysteries. ( her favorite show)
And of course still watch a lot of movies whenever I can.

I guess it's not too bad with the winter coming up. Usually don't want to be out anyway. Prefer cuddling in the sofa with my beloved blanket, a cup of Choco and some music in the background.
And just spend some time with the family you know kind let them drive you crazy for a while.

So people give some suggestion here on how to kill some time rather than TV and Books.
thanks

After thanksgiving

Okay thanksgiving was fun fun and a whole lot of fun. We all got together I don't know how many course of meal we had. But I can tell you I was eating every half an hour.
Plus you know when you eating and talking and laughing off every calorie that you are putting down. There is no way you can keep tabs on actually how much food you are taking in.
I think the last food I had was at 1:30 in the morning. Seriously no kidding we were having "une nuit blanche".
The only thing as I woke up at noon the next day I couldn't get off my bed. I was so hungry it was unbelievable. I could smell the food, my mom was up already making breakfast or we can call it brunch at that time. But as I went downstairs, straight to the kitchen and was like "mom I am starving here". She had me making coffee but I thought I was going to stump on that coffee maker really it was just taking it's sweet time just to brew the dam coffee.
I was ready to give up on it go for some tea or just something else. But finely got my food and was ready to tackle the day of shopping.
Yep I did my humble contributions on Black Friday to help all this store squeeze the last dollars out of me.
Didn't make the early birds specials but who cares I got some new stuff on SALE.

I noted on the refrigerator don't eat too much on Christmas. It's now officially one more of my goals. And got on the scale didn't gain an ounce that was a relief. Well maybe a couple but nothing too serious.
And I am glad I woke up today back on my eating routine. So happy about that. Just to prove the point I was up at 7am today and only had coffee at 10am and I haven't eaten a thing since.
It's now after noon. Yeaaahhhh and I am not really that hungry.

Why?






I have been excited out of my mind and I don't know why? (kind been like that for months now and not on "any feel good pills".)

I keep waiting I don't know for what? ( been waiting for months)

Been sitting at a cross road and not sure which way to turn? (I think I moved-in at the motel on that cross road) - somebody please set it on fire so we can all move on

I know what I want, but am not sure if that is really what I want?

I Know that I know what to do but I have been preparing for a bit too long.( still not taking actions)

I listen to everybody else's problems and I keep shut because I realize that I have so much that I should be very grateful

I see people look at me. And I wonder what are they thinking? (the feeling that you get when someone expression says a lot more, but can't pin point exactly what it is)

I wonder if I had made different choices how life would be today? (because I know it's not too late. I can change everything if I wanted to today. But it comes back to what is the things that I really want?)

Every wise person that I talked too, tells me "you have accomplished so much. Just have patience and everything will fall into place." Plus that annoying phrase "you still so young and have so much to look foward too" that is when I get the question "how old are you again?" Then they usally have that crazy laugh...." you a babie" ( I don't want to wait anymore)


Now that I read my own questions I can't help to feel a little guilty on how selfish it sounds :/

But aren't we all in someways?

*sigh* thanks everyone!

Things you can't possibly imagine.

Wow I almost forget this past Saturday unbelievable experience.
It all started after a long night of fun on Friday evening. I came home at about 1:30am and was feeling too pumped up to go to sleep. So I decided to read a romance novel so I could doze off.
An hour later am still reading because the book is really good. Until 15minutes later out of the blue I heard this loud bang outside my window. Now my room is on the 2nd floor, so I jumped in my bed and was looking thru the blind to see what happened? All I could see was a black BMW parked right behind my brother car in the middle of the street. The BMW had smoke coming out the engine. There was no movement so I thought the driver was hurt. I grabbed my cell phone to call 911 for the ambulance. The next thing I know as am watching this from my window the car starts moving. So am going Oh my God he is about to run. Because from where I was I could see the bumper of a car hanging from the side. I thought he was driving too fast and ran into my brother's car from the back. Now this is at 2:50 in the morning. I was watching the car drive away I could see that the car was not running good. So he cross the big street and turned on the other side of some Apartment complex driveway. I ran downstairs woke my brother and was like T your car is busted. He try to go back to sleep, am like T YOUR CAR has been HIT. I ran outside at the same time couple of our neighbors came out too. Everybody went ( did u see what happened?) As we are all trying to figure out were this car came from I walked by the car and saw the back of my brothers car was perfectly fine. So am wondering were all this debris came from? Until I walked on the side and saw that this dude took off almost the whole front and side of the car.
I was standing there just in amazement another car came by and said they saw the whole thing happen, they called the police and gave them the license plate number of the car. And they said the guy can't go nowhere he is parked behind those apartments building and there is lot of smoke coming from his vehicle.
My brother and I stood outside until the police came: this is how it the conversation went:
Officer: where is the vehicle?
Me and my brother and the neighbors: He is on the other side of those apts building.
Officer: wait here I will be back.
The rest of us: Okay
The officer got back in her vehicle cross the street and arrested the guy. She was there for a while. After 30 minutes she came back
Officer: who's car is this one?
Me: my older brother car.
Officer: Where is he?
Me: he is right here
Officer: Sir, I arrested the guy he is going to spend the night in jail. The driver was drunk he said that he has insurance to cover the damages. But I can't be sure because he is not in his right mind.
Officer: Who witnessed the accident?
Me: I didn't see it happen but I saw the guy drive away right after it happened. the people that saw the whole thing happen are the one that made the call and left they didn't want to be involved in the situation.
Officer: I don't understand this, why call the police if they didn't want to be involved? But are you willing to Write a witness report for what you saw?
Me: I don't know; but I can report what I saw.
Officer: here is the form filled it out please in details and wait I will be right back.
Me: Okay
The officer went by the other guy car again to call the tow truck because that BMW was a goner. Totally smashed.
My brother and I stood outside for another hour waiting for her to finish "police business" It was freezing; but we started just laughing on how this could even happen. I am going to draw how the accident happen and trust me you are going to be like WOW. Because there is no way I would have thought the accident could have happened that way. Totally amazing.
So we are playing the court room trying to pass time. On how this could end up in court. Because the guy after he sober up might want to deny the claim. Because the 1st car that saw the whole thing happen didn't want to be a witness.
Anyway the officer came back to collect the witness report with the guy behind the cruiser laughing is head off. Just totally drunk and saying I call you okay, I got insurance. I was like you wont be laughing when you sober up in jail tomorrow morning.
We finely got back in the house at 4:45am made me some hot tea and went to bed. Didn't sleep until after 6 in the morning.
What a night. I didn't wake up until 1:30PM the next day I was exhausted.
I did a drawing on the whole thing but blogger wont let me uploaded it. So am going to try to explain this. There is a 4 way lanes on the right side of my house. Now our house is the last one on the street basically it's in a corner between a major street and a small way front of the yard.
So the car was traveling west from the other side until it lost control went over 3 lanes on the opposite direction, over the pavement, then hit a bus sign that is made of steal the whole sign came off the ground now the car is in the yard still going passed few pine trees and a property sign then smashed into my brother car flipped around and stop right behind the car. That is when I saw it. Just imagine that it could have hit all those other things or stopped at the 1st impact but no it kept going and going and going till it mess up the other car too. If you could see what I am trying to describe here you will be like no way this is possible. But it happened.
We cool people man, seriously my brother and I all we did is laughed about it. I was thinking if it was somebody else would have been pissed off. " my brother got insurance" that is why we were cool. hehehe
FYI: the garage is in the back of the house. But there are too many cars so one has to park outside by the street. But where the car was parked is actually cut in out of some yard space. So the car should have been safe there too. But some drunk had to break the almost impossible.
Yep, my car was safe and sound because I always get the garage space. yeahhh

The end is near

Wow I can't believe it. It's already Sweet November... I was just thinking today, wow it's almost the end of the year. I drive around and see people in shopping malls everybody getting ready for Christmas. Today was the last day of Ramadan for me as well the last week of Halloween. The pumpkin man was thrown out all stores today. And guess what? Mister Christmas tree took over the job :) So sad how move on so easily. As only 52 Days until Christmas you can imagine.
Still wow let me repeat only 59 days till new years eve. What is so crazy I feel like we should still be in April or May. I had longed to grow up and be a woman who is mature, sophisticated, beautiful, intelligent, independent, the list goes on... But I feel this is happening way to fast; on the other hand I can't wait to see what is next for my life. How it will be in the 2, 3 or 5 years from now. I have hit a wall this past couple of months just trying to figure out what it is that I really want from life. I had came up with different scenario of how I could plan and pursue my goals and dreams. But every time I can't help it but stop and say to my self "you know you can only plan but God always have a way to send your plans into an 90 degrees angle.
I just hope and pray that those would be best. Since I don't really have a say about it and that I am not psychic so plan away God. " wow how did I end up in this route" okay let's back on track.

So it's November the leaves have turned yellow going into orange it's beautiful.
I love that I get to wear a lot of brown. Actually was out shopping today and got me two just out of this world boots. And an outfit and one more pair of work shoes and a hand bag. Did I say on my last post I was recovering shopper? I think I am slipping :-S But still I can't wait to put them on. We can just count it as my rewards for being so good in the month of Ramadan *that this excuse sound okay? I think so* Because I believe it :) Plus everybody that can give me stuff are so far away from me :(

I am excited about everything, work , life, family, the future, the present and all the other things that I can't talk about .
Of course the best thing of all in the US is with the end of the year comes tax period. That is if you are going to get some of your money back. I am fired up about it because I know for sure I have at least minimum couple of grands coming to me in Feb. I know it still a long way, but with the times passing so fast I think it's around the corner.

I feel the Love, I spread the Love and Joy and Peace. I know am talking nonsense now because I am sleepy and the one thing about me if I am sleepy don't pay attention to what am saying. Because I never remember. hehehe

Good night people and sweet dreams ;)
