Asshole of the week award goes out to...

All the people who snow blow or get their driveways plowed and block the sidewalk. Today was terrible walking to and from work. All these douchebags blocking the sidewalk with their knee deep snow piles and in some cases in some spots chin deep. Apparently they don't think people actually walk anywhere in the winter and the sidewalk doesn't need to be cleared. Walking through snow like that is like walking through COLD sand. My legs were frozen by the time I got home. I thought for sure there would be frostbite involved.

Anyway, props go out to the guy on the corner of one of the streets that I walk down. He makes a nice clear path on the side walk. He's a nice old guy who actually offered me a ride one day when it was raining. But you know, your inner child kicks in and says, don't accept rides from strangers. No matter how sweet and innocent they look.

Oh yah, another positive was....I only worked until 5 today!!!!!!!!!!! I love working a whole hell of a lot more when I don't have to work sweat shop hours.

Busting my ass and a clean bill of health.


So false alarm I suppose. Went to the walk-in clinic today and they said. "Erica you have no blood in your urine." I asked him three times if he was sure. SO there you have it. I am healthy. As far as kidney health goes. Other than that though, on Monday or Tuesday, who knows now that the days blend together , but anyway, I was on my way to work and was so proud that I hadn't slipped and busted my ass (because the sidewalks were treacherously slippery) I was walking along and BOOM! I busted my ass so hard sprained my effing ankle, bloodied up my knees ( see photos above). At first I didn't think I could walk on it. But I said to myself OK get your effing ass up Erica, you CANNOT be late for this shitty retail job. So I got up, shook myself off. Bit my lip and pulled my scarf up under my eyes and cried hysterically all the way to work. I swear I didn't think I could stop really. My ankle is still screwed up and I stand on it all day because I have to. I don't know. I am really hating life right now. I just can't wait until I can move out of this place and finally just be happy.

K, so enough ranting. I'm done.

Goodnight folks and have a good rest of the week.

Christmas lights and Snow


I did have a picture of me with this big huge snow bank but I looked to chubs so I opted with this one. Enjoy.
