"I am Cornholio!"

Did you know that they are bring Beavis & Butthead back? Does anyone else think that's awesome? I'm not sure if i'll still think it's awesome. I was in jr. high & high school when they were first out. I wonder if they'll still play videos & talk about them. To me, that was one of the best parts of the show. Remember how it was all like really weird, random bands that you never heard of & then they'd throw in Beastie Boys, Stone Temple Pilots or Soundgarden. Most of the band I had never heard of, but they were always funny!

REMEMBER TO TURN OFF IPOD ON THE RIGHT BEFORE WATCHING THE VIDEO!

BEAVIS IS THE GREAT CORNHOLIO!

"Exsqueeze me? Baking Powder?"

I guess I must be really awesome at my job, cuz they put me in charge of one of our biggest clients' invoice/timecards & then I deliver it each week on Thursday by 8:30am. But it is a total pain! And it's hard enough trying to figure all the employeees, jobs & overtime out but now they have a new girl there who is in charge of getting me all the information & she sucks at it. There's like 50 employees & they all work at different jobs, so I can kinds see how it'd be overwhelming, but when she does it wrong, then I have to go through all of them & try to fix all her mistakes. I'm not really sure why it's so hard to figure out time & a half for overtime, but apparently it is. And, this payroll is every Thursday so on Monday's & Tuesday's i'm usually trying to figure out this mess she emails over. And if my numbers don't match my sisters numbers when she inputs their checks then it really, really sucks. I just had to tell someone (and that's you) cuz it's making me angry. In fact, right now, this very second, i'm waiting for an email back from her to correct another mistake. C'mon. I hope she gets it soon, cuz she's making my job twice as hard!

"This Sh** is Bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S"

I made this yesterday for my dad to take to my Aunt. I love this recipe & it is so super easy. I did change it up though yesterday & added chopped Macadamia Nuts. I LOVE Macadamias! If I could i'd add them to all kinds of things. When I was in Hawaii w/my parents on the Big Island I made them go to the Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut Farm. I'm also totally in love with Pistachio's. Which reminds me of "Sugar Dates, Sugar Dates & Figs. Sugar Dates & Pistachios!" Does anyone know what that's from??? It's a total High School joke. It's from Aladdin. Anywho, here's the recipe. I follow it pretty well, except I usually use 5-6 bananas & I leave them in really big chunks, so when you mix them it doesn't just turn to mush. They get smaller but they don't disappear & I like my bread w/a lot of texture. Like my carrot cake, which i'll post sometime, it's super chunky. Hope you try this out. Also, it says it makes 1 loaf but really it makes 2.

"I've gotta get out of here....i've gotta get out of here!"



That video is how i've felt for the last week! I was...well am super anxious & panicky since last week. It got so bad on Friday I had my mom take me to the little IHC Insta-Care in BTown to see if they could calm me down. I was having like a 4 day panic attack. Then after that I started to think maybe something is wrong with me so that made me panic even more. So I thought i'd start in BTown & then if I had to i'd maybe make my way to the U ER. That's the worst feeling ever. I was totally panicked, my blood pressure was super high, I was freezing & my whole body was shaking. So I got to the place & luckily only waited a few minutes. Then got back to see the Dr. who asked me about a billion questions & I finally got some answers. Which was i'm panicking. So I got some medicine & what's weird is that it makes me feel normal. I can't explain. It's the craziest thing. Before I almost felt like a third person, if that makes sense. It's like I was there but I was somewhere else. Anywho, just thought i'd let ya know. I'm seeing my regular Dr. on Monday & we'll see what her long-term plans are for me. At least I found out there's nothing physically wrong with me! :)
