it's FRIDAY...

... and I'm not working today.....
;)

This makes me incredibly happy. It was a crappy day at work yesterday. Like, sit down at the picnic table outside the office and cry crappy. Or leave work in the middle of the day because you just can't deal with it crappy. Yeah, that kinda crappy... So today?! I'll have no such nonsense-- I'm heading down to the 'Ville, surprising Jack Jack at school (I hope he's not reading this!), circle journaling with my sisser, going to Michael's to find the Christina Cole stack (tee hee, e, I don't think you knew that part of the plan), drinking a strawberry limeade from SONIC (surprise again, e!! It wouldn't be such a necessity if we just HAD ONE..........), and all around not thinking about work.

Hurray for days off!
Hurray for stopping at Dunkin Donuts for an XL Hazelnut coffee on my way!
Hurray for my sisser!
Hurray for the effer 5 being pubsters of the day! (I'm not even sure exactly what this means?! but it makes me smile nonetheless... even Ashley Nicole {insert rolling on the floor smiley from Yahoo here....}) AND it's a new dare day (which makes me happy even when I'm three behind already... whoopsies....)
Hurray for all the wonderful, supportive, incredible peeps who sent me sweetie emails and blog banners (thanks you, Miss Hanni) and oh-so needed smiles yesterday!
Hurray for Maxxy wearing his Halloween collar and it being CHILLY COLD out this morning!

OK, that's enough hurrays...
happy friday, loyal fanbase... ;) (I crack myself up)

just trying something out....

Tee hee
<----
MAXINE...
Can everyone see him?!
Everyone?
Everyone?!
;)

so, what's this all about?

Well. Everyone else is doing it, why can't I, as some might say?? So this is blogging... Hmm. Kinda fun. I have a feeling I'm going to say a LOT of things no one wants to read. And some things I'm going to probably take down again after I write them...

So. What exactly will Tails from the Maxxy Pad do for YOU?! Not much... You are going to hear *LOTS* about the Max. Today, if I really felt like boring you, I'd whine incessantly about my job. And missing my husband. And about how I really don't know HTML code so good so I'm having some issues with getting my banner at the top of the page... egads, I say, egads.... I'm going to talk about scrapbooking. But not just scrapbooking, because, believe it or not, I do other things... Like watch Veronica Mars. In addition to VMars and scrapping (loves of my life) I'll talk about.. Bills. Bugs. Family (no, not YOU, e, everyone else!!). Work. Yoga. Max. Max. More Max... Things I love. Like Max. Things I hate. Like Bugs. No, wait, I already said those two things. Bear with me-- I'll try to entertain you and I'll try to help you know me. That's a lot to ask from a blog, eh?

And with that, I leave you. To scrap. Ha!

ps Happy Birthday, Jessie!! and happy belated birthday, Miss Ashley Wren, kindred spirit extraordinaire...
