This was a needed laugh thanks to Jess here at work who happened across it from some one some where… make sure you click on the link at the bottom that Chel came across after our fits of giggles.

It’s been a very long day while the news started to come in about Mary’s kids. The rescue mission was changed to a recovery mission and shortly after 1pm they found the eldest and then the little one. I don’t want to write currently because I just can’t right now. I’ll let people know whats going to be done for Mary and her family- I know a fund is being started but I’ve no information yet on how to contribute. I’ve been crying for Mary in complete sorrow and also crying for being so happy that I have my kids to love and cherish another day and hopefully for the rest of my life. No parent should ever have to outlive their children.

Prayers and strong thoughts are going out there to help her heal and move forward when the time is right- but for now my heart is reaching out to her while she just tries to breathe. May her and her family continue to be surrounded by love and kindess during this tough time.

It’s so hard to breathe or focus when you know a mother, a co-worker, a friend is out there hoping for good news that may or may not ever come. The search for the most part is being called off during the evening hours tonight and planning to resume in the morning.

While the authorities are focusing on the river, some of the family believes they were perhaps kidnapped and authorities are focusing in the wrong direction.

My thoughts earlier this morning was that perhaps the youngest did fall into the river and Alvin went in after him, maybe he got them to shore safely and they were keeping warm until someone found them. The closer the 24 hr mark came… and then went… so did the hope of that scenario.

When I saw her on the news tonight I just wanted to wrap my arms around her. She’s such a strong woman; she’s the type of person who is always there for someone when they’ve hit tragedy to make sure they get through it okay. My thoughts remain positive for the entire family, my heart bleeds for them and I will continue to bate my breath until we know what happened.

My heart and positive thoughts right now are going out to Mary, a lady who I work with and have considered a friend over the past 6 years. It was brought to our attention first thing this morning that she has been in turmoil and experiencing the worst thing imaginable for a parent. Both her sons have been missing since yesterday afternoon.

INDEPENDENCE, Ore. — Authorities searched all night Sunday and into Monday morning for two brothers who went missing while fishing Sunday along the Willamette River in Independence.

Family members had hoped someone would call the Polk County Sheriff’s Office with word that they had seen Alvin Troub, 20, and his eight-year-old brother, Michael Runyon. But so far — nothing.

Michael has autism and would be very scared, his mother, Mary Troub told KGW. Her two sons were both wearing dark-colored hoodie sweatshirts and jeans, and both fish off the shore into the Willamette “all the time,” she said.

A staging area was set up at the north end of Riverview Park in Independence.

My weekend was two days success, two days being lost in a video game. I hope to get a PS3 before GoW 3 comes out. I’m putting it up there with my love for the TR game play. BUT on to the horrendous morning- some time corrections I had e-mailed last Wednesday to the person in charge of  time cards while I was out didn’t make it into the time sheet and no one noticed that I worked 80 hrs but my time sheet only showed 67! It took all morning to get it straightened out, and just when I thought it was, I find out that it didn’t make on the upcoming paycheck… so a check is to be cut and Fed-Ex’ed to me. EEK! I hope nothing goes wrong and they don’t miscalculate my student loan garnishment or take out too much tax.

I think that was the only bad thing about the day. On the good side, I measured myself when I got home and I’ve lost a total of 2″ off my waist and another 2″ off my hips. I feel another 2 wks and I’ll be back in top shape (for me and easy to maintain), and then I’ll have to come out with different reasons for still being single after all these years. I’m eating healthy, 3.5 months no smoking, working out- I’m trying to take up swearing.

I put the year in there to show that this film was created in modern times.

**this blog was written during the film viewing**

I don’t believe the movie is even half over and already the scientific flaws has me clawing at my sofa… or wanting to if it wouldn’t harm the fabric.

Even if this movie was created as a non B movie in the 50’s they would still have the basic intellect to COVER YOUR FREAKING FACES!

Back to the movie at hand. The movie that is bad… really really bad and flawed on nearly every level imaginable so far. HOW COME NO ONE IS COVERING THEIR NOSE/MOUTHS when this is an airborne threat???

I don’t know why I didn’t pay attention to the premise of this film before… probably because the only information I received was along the lines of: SYNOPSIS
Unpopular superhero Hancock saves the life of a PR executive who attempts to salvage his public image. <-Wow that’s going to get the people who would appreciate this film out to view it. *sarcasm* I feel that a fair share of people will find it worth watching who may have otherwise passed it by.

I was interested in this film because it looked kind of funny and interesting, but the actual story is a lot better than I had imagined. Sadly it only begins right before it ends and I hope to see a Hancock 2.

They promoted this film incorrectly which prompted a lot of critics to critique it incorrectly.

In order to make this a great film, the writers and director should have pulled out pieces in the beginning of the story so that the ending could fill the areas that should brought mystery and interest to the viewer. If you want to know what I’m referring to, see the movie.

Is it just me or has anyone else suspected that the talented writers in the entertainment industry were snuffed out and replaced by their whiny, annoying cousins? It’s already November and there’s not one show I’m attached to. I’m a child who was raised by the TV damn it, I need some decent programming!

They killed everyone during the writers strike, didn’t they? All the shows I had enjoyed last year… gone. Finis. It’s been down hill since the resurrection in May (for those who decided to finish out the year).

30 Rock is the only show I continue to enjoy and it’s only had two episodes this season. When I look forward to the next Hannah Montana, iCarly and Suite Life on Deck- like I have been something has seriously gone wrong in Hollywood. I actually tuned in to watch iCarly: iGo to Japan on Saturday night, and iliked it.

For those who do not have premium cable channels (like me) is there ANYTHING decent on television??? Only those with good taste need reply.

It’s really true what they say… you know, that stuff about your home reflecting how you feel. A cluttered home =’s a cluttered mind etc. My breathing is still off (sort of like when I first quit smoking)- It looks like my lung capacity has expanded so that’s probably what I’m feeling. With the diet change (I slipped last night by eating a bag of low fat kettle corn- I’m so bad), but I’ve thrown out a ton of stuff and did a ton of cleaning over the past 2 days.

I’ve made my room more friendly to me, I’ve cleaned out my fridge/freezer/cupboards when I realized that it’s been awhile since I’ve done that. I was even on all fours scrubbing the floors and all surfaces and I still have a ton of energy. I also did my grocery shopping in record time as well.

Dinner is cooking, I’m playing GoW and I want to run around the block!

I NEED TO SIGN UP FOR A MEGATHALON! (is there even such a thing?) Will my energy subside? Will my lungs and body be on the same page again? How long will this last????
