life in a cornfield

Mile 29 947

Today begins the redneck pride fest also known as Country USA. Not that I'm excitied about it, but I could take them or leave them. There ARE however plenty of cute country boys running around. That I am looking forward to. Also after the next four days brings me one day closer to vacation, and California. And vacation. Excessive drinking? Oh yes.

I can't believe its almost july, we really haven't seen the HOT weather yet. Its been a comfy 75 or so for most of the month, with little humidity. Let me say this, perfection in the midwest. I must gloat to Scott over at Scott-O-Rama (link to the right), since its stifling hot in Phoenix right now. 115 anyone?

Things are lazy, life is uneventful. I'll be sure to take pictures this weekend.

That is all,

Hmmm

So i got a phone bill today from AT&T Wireless, it requested that i pay the ballance due on the account... 36ยข. I don't want to end up at a collections agency, and it'll be more hastle to go to Oshkosh to pay the damn thing. Oh well, I see a Nokia camera phone in my future. I'm reading a book on Islam for my world history class. I'm completly confused. Are these militants all upset because they don't understand something? I'd be. Lastly for tonight. I'm sick, please send de-congestance C/O the cornfield so i can breathe again! That is all. Cheers, -Rob

I Have A Strong Dislike for Boston

I'm amazed at how New York Lost.

They were ahead, 2 games, they needed one more to win. Just one more game. Then they lost the next four. I don't think its safe to go to work for the next few days... I'll be attacked by co-workers and heckled by hecklers.

The farmer behind my house spread manuer today. It smells... badly. Very Badly... although the stink from the east could be New York.

So i'm a liberal democrat (i think i've mentioned this before gay+voter= democrat (usually)). And i'm somewhat out numbered at work. Its not fun listening to Rush Limbaugh at work. Or having to watch the Fox News Channel. I say something about Bush, and immediatly it goes back to Kerry. Okay, Listen up. I don't like bush or kerry. I just dislike Kerry less. And i'm voting on party lines. Ergo, i'm voting for Kerry because he's not bush, and is a Democrat. Okay?

Is it the weekend yet?

that is all, cheers -Robbie

I still can't belive they lost!

Less Than An Hour

Its pretty much a given that i'm not getting the house that I wanted. Its a sad thing, but at the same time a good thing. Good in the fact that i can put off the whole financing part for, oh, another week or month or two until i find the right house. A sad thing because I really did like that house, regardless on how useless that the kitchen may have been, and the yard was perfect. Oh well, they were asking too much for it anyway, and will have fun selling it. Sucks to be them. I did find another house that i enjoyed (and its not stucco!) yard wasn't quite as nice, but the pine trees in the front would be needing to go. Neighbourhood isn't quite as desireable, but its still a quite area, only a few blocks from where i work, so in theory i could walk to work (and when its not crappy out i would). Again, we'll see what happens.
I'm upset that the Yankee's Lost... Again
Its their series to lose, and they've got a couple more chances to take the lead (again), and just put the sox out of their misery. Not much i can do about that. Cheers. -robbie

The Adventures of Miss Swish in the Mystery Scones

Posted by Hello When I describe Wisconsin to people, I generally say Cows, corn, and cheese. Our quarter has imortalised that for the next, at least, two millenium. When civilisations from the future dig this up from some mass grave/pit garbage dump, they'll see an Atari, probably a Dell computer (ish), and a Wisconsin quarter. Not to mention, a shitload of beer bottles. So this mystery civilisation will sum up 21st century earth as a bunch of internet porn freaks who drink beer, and play video games, eating cheese riding their cows. Just the way i'd like to be imoralised. In case you haven't figured it out, i'm gay, big whoop. And much to the dismay of any right wing conservative republicans I do not possess any of the following: A lisp, a swish when i walk, nor is the fire brigade required to visit when i enter a wood store. Nothing is gonna start on fire. This guy came in the store today, I thought he was a she. And, if his hair was longer and he stuffed his shirt, would've fit in nicely. I was less than thrilled. Needless to say a multitude of texts were sent out detailing the adventures of hosing this kid down with water, to help put out his flame... i mean for crying out loud, HE HAD A PURSE! On a fun side note, a very, very hot european came in today as well. I've worked with him before, and never got his name. Well, not only was he hot, european, and putting out crazy-mad vibes (although i've found all Europeans do, American Grade Gaydar is totally useless), but he had a porn star name too. I hope he comes in again, I love asking hotties for their phone number and them willingly telling me without any reservations at all. I did have a mystery guest today. Stopped in, dropped off two delicious blueberry scones, which were absolutely perfect before going to history class. Both myself and the girl i was working with thought it was her husband, but realised that 1, he would've had to have had lost a lot of weight, and 2, didn't drive a merc. I didn't get a chance to thank him in person, so thanks Dan. That is all. Cheers. Robbie P.S. The yankees lost again, i'm less than amused.

Ooops

I'm so bad about remembering to update this now. So here's what happened I put an offer in on the house that I liked. They countered with 2k more than what I had put in. I countered with what I had originally bid, but used their closing date. That was last night, they have until Monday to either accept (whoo hoo!) or decline (whoo hoo!). Now why would i be happy about getting the bid shot down? No big deal, I'll just find something else. I went out in Green Bay on saturday night. It was less than fun for various reasons. 1. there was zero eye candy to speak of.
When I go out, its fun to have something to ogle.
2. One of my ex-boyfriend's was there. He just glared at me. Its one thing to have someone look at me in the "i wanna play with you", its another to have someone look at me with the "i want to rip your balls off". Less than enjoyable. C. Completely bombing algebra. Thats old news. new part is i'm dropping it. The only way to save face and not completly blow my GPA. Later Gators. -robbie.

Well Thats Interesting

If you want to scare someone, take a gun into a store

So someone brought a gun (two actually) into where i work. Initially, I thought nothing of it. Then the police showed up, and reality set in. This nut carried two guns on him, one unloaded rifle, and one conceiled hand gun. And he was upset we called the police to escort him out of the store. Well, today I found out what happens when someone needs to file a restraining order on someone. I could've done with out that experence. Aside from that today was no biggie. Just a nut in the store with a couple of guns. Whoo HOO!???

I'm a phone whore. I'll admit it. I own more phones than I care to admit. I decided to get another new one today. Bought the Motorola V810. Nice little flip jobber. Normally I don't particularly care for flips, however, they tend to work better at work. Yes, I'm a phone whore. I need help.

I'm still getting the hang of Blogger, so if things seem out of whack, thats why.

Finally Got this Figured Out

Mood: Pretty Good
Music: XM 81 BPM
After many months of posting on AOL journals, I've finally figured out how to setup a Blogger page. Now, most of you will figure that I'm dumb thinking "Even my grandmother knows how to use blogger." I've always had issues, either the page freezes, or it just doesn't like me when I'm trying to set them up.
Wisconsin can be summed up in three words - Cows, Corn, Cheese
Hell, I live next to a corn field. Honest truth. This summer I looked out the window of my room and there it is, CORN. Hence the name "Life in a corn field". Actually where I live (the city anyway) is surrounded on all sides (except due north) by corn or cows. Yup, I was an international wanderslut again.
