My SO Called Life

     

  • I thought tonight I would let my fingers do the talking and do a random entry so here it goes 1.2.3.
  •    A funny thing happened at work the other day.  I noticed my pateint who just happens to be a HIGH FALL RISK was walking across the day area without her walker.  I yelled from across the room “OUT”!  She suddenly turned around  just a tad startled by my outburst and promptly sat down .  It dawned on me later  that I had given her a dog command  that I give my rottweilers to STOP.  
  •    Never ever (!) let a teenage driver move your car out out the drive way.  The next day you will find your seat pulled all the way back, head rest lowered, seat back extended, rap music blasting, your stearing wheel moved to the lowest postion, your mirrors all screwed up.   Why is that???  Can’t  he just back the car out of the driveway like a good little boy and not mess with any of the controls.  
  •  Lets talk about Tivo–shall we. (a very long bullet) ” Daddy hates Tivo” ! I heard his daughter say the other day.  Yes indeed that is a correct statement.  It has been about three weeks with a dysfunctionial Bad TIVO.  I HATE TO BE MASTERED BY AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE.  Every  dog gone day I worked my fingers to the bloody  bones deligently trying to troubleshoot the problems.  Why was TIVO recording tv news shows from LA and NY-I don’t really like to watch the news. Why was I having problems connecting to Tivo? Restarting guided set up at least 10 times–like hell it only takes a half hour–try two hours Mr Tivo people.  It got really bad on Seahawk Saturday when Tivo wouldn’t let us watch the SEAHAWK PLAY OFF GAME WITH THE REDSKINS.–we were waiting all day for this game.  It was the biggest game since 1983!!!  Eddie was just about ready to rip Tivo away from the  tv and toss it back into the box–I pleaded and begged with him that TIVO WILL BE GOOD .TIVO IS OUR FRIEND.  Missing the preshow and 10 minutes into the game we finally disconnected Tivo.  Football will come before TIVO.    That night I layed in bed staring at the ceiling troubleshooting when the spirit of Tivo came upon me and gave me an awaking.  That’s it!  I got up at 4am and me and Tivo were finally going to settle things once and for all–I’m the master.   With fresh energy I was able to make progress it was a really beautiful  thing.  Tivo and I made a love connection the energy was flowing and Tivo obeyed my commands–he taped The View  and  The Ellen Show.  later that night I taped the 66 or was it the 67 Golden  Globes awards.  I discovered that TIVO was up to his old shenanigans and he  CUT OFF the show RIGHT AT THE VERY BEGINNING of the red carpet display— My intention was to tape the awards and watch Wife Swap.  But for some reason Tivo switched  in mid stream and started  to tape wife swap.  To my dismay and later delight I discovered instead of watching the awards I was watching wife swap again so I by passed it and noticed that Tivo was taping THE BACHLEOR which follwed wife Swap.  WoW, I didn’t know this show was on again–thank god Tivo knows what my favorite shows are–This just might be a fluke thing but TIVO IS VERY GOOD .  Tonight, I will watch American Idol and tape that reality ice skating show–TIVO better behave
  •   Last Bullet here ok—The teenager bought a little kitty for his girlfriend it was her christmas present but unfortunately and lucky for me her parents didn’t want to have another animal in their house.  So as you can see in this picture whe have a new addition to our family.  Ladies and gentlemem meet Missy!  She is a very quick kitty her nickname is twister-one minute you see her and the next minute she is off like a twister twirling around the house causing havoc.  She has the softest fur and an adorable Purr.  Baby Tucker our 145lb Rottie loves to cuddle with her.  They even drink out of the same water dish.  Love at first sight.

Yelling “OUT” to that little ol lady is a hoot! I’ve always thought TiVo would be fun…now I am rethinking it! Your new kitty is adorable and the photo is sweet.

Cute kitty! My husband does that to my car (minus the rap music.) How do people drive from the back seat anyway?

Tried Tivo, sent Tivo packing! I about peed myself laughing at the reference to the lil ol’ lady but could find myself doing the same thing. The pic of the kitten and dog is too adorable, would love to have a dog, but in an apt…not practical at this time. As for the car, my g/f does that to me all the time, gotta love em!

Hehehe… teenagers will always take over the car if they can. Just be thankful that s/he is learning to adjust the car correctly to his/her settings. It definitely improves the safety when driving. Always yours,
