Halloween Tips

Update: OK I'm feeling better, had a long talk with my mom last night, so I don't feel AS guilty. I'm still grounded, but if this is the biggest drama in my life... I guess I'm lucky. I'm trying to be optimistic. As for my "friends"... well... yeah I 'm still pissed at them. Anywho...

Here's A Few Halloween Tips

(for those of you that aren't grounded, for having a minor car accident with a pole)

1. If you knock on a door, and this man answers... DO NOT say Trick or Treat... Trust me, you will want neither.

2. GIRLS ONLY:If you are home alone, on Halloween night, your phone line is dead, your power just went out, and you hear a loud noise in the basement; before you goto investigate the noise please DON'T FORGET to change into your most revealing negligee (or just a bath towel wrapped around you) This is the customary outfit for this situation.

3. If you happen to come across the REAL devil tonight, please...please DO NOT ask him if he really wears Prada. This can result in unfavorable consequences.

4. If ANYONE runs into Robert Pattinson dressed full on looking like Edward Cullen please be give him my blog address...http://xcruz-controlx.blogspot.com/. Thank you.

HAVE A GREAT HALLOWEEN!

Genius! Right Here!

This isn't my usual funny post... this is my life...so i'm venting post.

Last night me, Matt (from the other post), and another friend of ours went to go get something to eat. Even though I was driving, I got out-voted (I wanted Chick-fil-a and they wanted Church's chicken) So we get to the drive thru and then idk how it happened...but I guess I might have, maybe, misjudged the distance as I turned the corner I scraped my back door on a yellow pole! You know those yellow ones that are about a foot in diameter and about 3 or 4 feet tall, yeah I hit one of those. Ok so I hear it, naturally I stop the car and ask "WTF was that?" as if I didn't already know. So no one answers me, of course not we all know what happened. So I get out of line, we hadn't ordered yet, and I pull over to the curb. We get out and there on the driver's side back door are not 1 but 2 dents (one's deeper than the other) and I have no idea why there's 2 I only touched the pole once, maybe car doors dent weird, idk this is my first time causing damage to a car, and all over the dents an area of about 2 ft by 1 ft is scraped all up, yellow paint(pole) on white(car) and gray(where all the paint just came off).

So here comes the GENIUS part... my first instinct is to get back into my car, take some napkins out of the glove box, wet them someone's bottled water (idk who's) and I start scrubbing the dented and scraped area! I KNOW... I'M A FREAKIN' GENIUS!!! I have noooo idea why this is my first reaction... and you might have guessed by now, nothing happened to the dent besides get some dirt off. The dirt on the napkin just reminded me that my mom had told me to wash the car like monday, and I forgot. So by now I feel like crap. Matt gets off the curb where he was sitting... and I'm thing he's a guy (guys know cars) he's older (18) so he's wiser... he'll know what to do ... he'll take control of the situation. My other friend just has her arm around me telling me everything's going to be ok, which is so not what I want to hear, and Matt walks past us into the Church's. I thinking he's going to get me some help or something. He comes out 5 minutes later WITH FOOD! HE WENT TO GET FOOD! I CAN'T BELIEVE HIM! So I go off. WTF are you doing? You're suppose to help me? how can you think of chicken right now? you're a *bleeped bleep bleep* you get the idea. He just smiles but I could tell he was laughing (maybe not outloud).

Whatever... so FFWD an hour when I get home. I tell my mom and we got outside to look at her car (OH! did I mention that part this was HER CAR) She wasn't mad, she had this sad disappointed look.... not the disappointed look, I'd rather her be mad. Oh but my dad sure was. And it hurt that much more because I'm a real daddy's girl. So needless to say I'm grounded on HALLOWEEN WEEKEND! actually for several more weekends, too. But this had the parties I wanted to goto. Me and my friends were going as the Spice Girls (Yes the lame 90's version... we thought it was funny) anyway I was Posh (the vintage brunette version not the blond now version) anyway now they're REPLACING ME!! I think my dad couldn't wait for the chance to tell me I couldn't go out this weekend, he didn't like my outfit.

So here's the breakdown... I have no access to a car, my mother's disappointed in me, my dad's mad at me, I can't goto any Halloween parties, Matt's probably laughing at me (at this very moment), my "friends" are replacing me, I have no boyfriend to comfort me, and on top of everything else this morning at breakfast my lil brothers were making fun of me, the 9yr stands really still (he's the pole) and the 12yr old pretended to be driving and crashes into "the pole" at full force complete with sound effects! GRRR Brothers! So not funny, and usually I'd kill them but I have no energy left to make a drama of it. I need a vacation... or comfort food... Aurora, did you ever make those ice cream brownies? Storm do have any cookie dough left?

So totally bummed,

Cruz

Potty Time!!

These were just funny, pointless, and some were just well... wrong on so many levels....

Responses & Important Notice

Cory: *Cruz frisbees pancakes at your head* I have come to the conclusion that you don't actually READ my posts. You just come here to threaten my life with muffins, poke me with vegetables, and steal my sweets! So I thought if I included you in a post you might actually read it. These are virtual pancakes so I won't run out. And don't make me break out the syrup bottle.

Firenze: Thanks now I entiendo.

Chocolatelover: OK I'm confused, you don't cuss "AT ALL" but I've seen you comment (on other's blogs) saying pissed or crap, etc. So I was wondering what was the standard you go by. I mean crap is obviously ok, but am I assuming sh** isn't because it's a stronger word? like darn would be ok but damn wouldn't, or would damn be ok as long as God wasn't in front of it. I'm not patronizing you , I'm sincerely curious. I didn't even notice the cuss words, I guess I'm kinda immune to them; I just copied and pasted from my e-mail. SFA Lumberjacks are the mascot for the school my sister goes to....they call their girl's athletic teams "Ladyjacks".... it always makes me think of pancakes (hence the cory comment).

Storm: Bubble pool party! YAY! Would you actually make a soap bomb, or would it just be a note? I think that would be the difference between prison and the looney bin. Oh just to clarify. Storm has not actually gone to jail , that would be ridiculous! Jail is on a local and county level, Storm's been to prison, that's on a state and federal level. Storm stop confusing people! Either way (prison/hospital) I'd offer to go visit you, but you'd probably use your new power to portal out anyway. So ......YES.... Soap Bomb! You can set it off at the end of the Bubble Pool Party!

Griffinrider: Hey I like you're last post (on recycling), and there's this blog I like (it's not mine, but I like it anyway) links on side. And you know I'm still waiting for a tea party to happen at your blog.

Sam C: Soooo happy for you two. Soooo jealous, too. I want a boyfriend (not yours, my own). My last date was like 3 weeks ago and the guy kept asking me if I was "okay" like repeatedly, ALL night long, so lame. I was very tempted to ask him if he was OCD, but I didn't. I'll be single forever! But happy for you and Hotshot. I always call your (officially now) BOYFRIEND a different name (Hotshot, Iggy, Cutie) or sometimes all 3 because... well... it amuses me. I know from your posts you usually call him Iggy, do you have a new lovey-dovey nickname for him now?

Rub-A-Dub-Dub (Aww..No fun in the tub)

My sister sent me this. I know it's long but you have to read it ALL! I feel so bad for this Berman guy.

The following letters are taken from an actual incident between a London hotel and one of its guests. The Hotel ended up submitting the letters to the London Sunday Times!

Hotel letters are in black. Customer(Berman) is in blue.

Dear Maid,
Please do not leave any more of those little bars of soap in my bathroom since I have brought my own bath-sized Dial. Please remove the six unopened little bars from the shelf under the medicine chest and another three in the shower soap dish. They are in my way.
Thank you,S. Berman

Dear Room 635,
I am not your regular maid. She will be back tomorrow, Thursday, from her day off. I took the 3 hotel soaps out of the shower soap dish as you requested. The 6 bars on your shelf I took out of your way and put on top of your Kleenex dispenser in case you should change your mind. This leaves only the 3 bars I left today which my instructions from the management is to leave 3 soaps daily. I hope this is satisfactory.
Kathy, Relief Maid

Dear Maid - I hope you are my regular maid.
Apparently Kathy did not tell you about my note to her concerning the little bars of soap. When I got back to my room this evening I found you had added 3 little Camays to the shelf under my medicine cabinet. I am going to be here in the hotel for two weeks and have brought my own bath-size Dial so I won't need those 6 little Camays which are on the shelf. They are in my way when shaving, brushing teeth, etc. Please remove them.
S. Berman

Dear Mr. Berman,
My day off was last Wed. so the relief maid left 3 hotel soaps which we are instructed by the management. I took the 6 soaps which were in your way on the shelf and put them in the soap dish where your Dial was. I put the Dial in the medicine cabinet for your convenience. I didn't remove the 3 complimentary soaps which are always placed inside the medicine cabinet for all new check-ins and which you did not object to when you checked in last Monday. Please let me know if I can of further assistance.
Your regular maid,Dotty

Dear Mr. Berman,
The assistant manager, Mr. Kensedder, informed me this morning that you called him last evening and said you were unhappy with your maid service. I have assigned a new girl to your room. I hope you will accept my apologies for any past inconvenience. If you have any future complaints please contact me so I can give it my personal attention. Call extension 1108 between 8AM and 5PM. Thank you.
Elaine CarmenHousekeeper

Dear Miss Carmen,
It is impossible to contact you by phone since I leave the hotel for business at 7:45 AM and don't get back before 5:30 or 6PM. That's the reason I called Mr. Kensedder last night. You were already off duty. I only asked Mr. Kensedder if he could do anything about those little bars of soap. The new maid you assigned me must have thought I was a new check-in today, since she left another 3 bars of hotel soap in my medicine cabinet along with her regular delivery of 3 bars on the bath-room shelf. In just 5 days here I have accumulated 24 little bars of soap. Why are you doing this to me?
S. Berman

Dear Mr. Berman,
Your maid, Kathy, has been instructed to stop delivering soap to your room and remove the extra soaps. If I can be of further assistance, please call extension 1108 between 8AM and 5PM.Thank you,
Elaine Carmen,Housekeeper

Dear Mr. Kensedder,
My bath-size Dial is missing. Every bar of soap was taken from my room including my own bath-size Dial. I came in late last night and had to call the bellhop to bring me 4 little Cashmere Bouquets.
S. Berman

Dear Mr. Berman,
I have informed our housekeeper, Elaine Carmen, of your soap problem. I cannot understand why there was no soap in your room since our maids are instructed to leave 3 bars of soap each time they service a room. The situation will be rectified immediately. Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience.
Martin L. KensedderAssistant Manager

Dear Mrs. Carmen,
Who the hell left 54 little bars of Camay in my room? I came in last night and found 54 little bars of soap. I don't want 54 little bars of Camay. I want my one damn bar of bath-size Dial. Do you realize I have 54 bars of soap in here. All I want is my bath size Dial. Please give me back my bath-size Dial.
S. Berman

Dear Mr. Berman,
You complained of too much soap in your room so I had them removed. Then you complained to Mr. Kensedder that all your soap was missing so I personally returned them. The 24 Camays which had been taken and the 3 Camays you are supposed to receive daily. I don't know anything about the 4 Cashmere Bouquets. Obviously your maid, Kathy, did not know I had returned your soaps so she also brought 24 Camays plus the 3 daily Camays. I don't know where you got the idea this hotel issues bath-size Dial. I was able to locate some bath-size Ivory which I left in your room.
Elaine CarmenHousekeeper

Dear Mrs. Carmen,
Just a short note to bring you up-to-date on my latest soap inventory. As of today I possess:
On the shelf under medicine cabinet - 18 Camay in 4 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 2.
On the Kleenex dispenser - 11 Camay in 2 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 3.
On the bedroom dresser - 1 stack of 3 Cashmere Bouquet, - 1 stack of 4 hotel-size Ivory, and 8 Camay in 2 stacks of 4.
Inside the medicine cabinet - 14 Camay in 3 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 2.
In the shower soap dish - 6 Camay, very moist.
On the northeast corner of tub - 1 Cashmere Bouquet, slightly used.
On the northwest corner of tub - 6 Camays in 2 stacks of 3.
Please ask Kathy when she services my room to make sure the stacks are neatly piled and dusted. Also, please advise her that stacks of more than 4 have a tendency to tip. May I suggest that my bedroom window sill is not in use and will make an excellent spot for future soap deliveries. One more item, I have purchased another bar of bath-sized Dial which I am keeping in the hotel vault in order to avoid further misunderstandings.
S. Berman

He had soooo much patience with these people. I wouldn't have been so nice, I don't know what I would have done, but something. 54 bars of soap!!Seriously! Thanks Sis, GO LUMBERJACKS!!
