Weekend of Delight

I love my friends! My aunty and I went up to Portland and Sarah, Donnie, Danny and we went to see a couple of shows. The Suicide Note of a Cockroach was delightful! I laughed a lot. Then we ate food and hit up the E room so Donnie could get his 5 for 5 vodka drink wrist band. You should have seen how fast he was walking! LOL.
The next mornings early ass trip wasn't as bad as I thought it would be so I could have skipped the sleeping in my car (since Donnie found me anyway). But I did go back to sleep after that. J.Hib was late but I thought she was even later which made my crack about her being dead from a car wreck so lets go party less funny. LeAnn was hella chill and funny, a little beligerant after the mix of drinks she consummed but no one got hurt so YAY! We had dinner at Blue Moon http://twitpic.com/auc1z and then we checked out the Sand in the City event in Pioneer Square. Meet up with Jackie and Andy (LeAnn's sister and bro. in law) they were cool and fun too. Went to Kelly's and then back to the DDs.
I was about to take a nap with Mat and Jazz showed up and we visited a bit. This blog is making me miss PDX hella.
The hotel was a nice touch although we missed out on the pool from sheer exhaustion.
Sunday we duffed around and found this really yummy place to eat, Clay's SmokeHouse Grill http://clayssmokehouse.ypguides.net/ (even had food for vegetarians). We BBQed well I pretended I was going to help but was easily distracted as usual. Qlaire came and it was super to see her. Later J.hib and I insisted on driving her home because she was helmetless.
Just before leaving town we got to see Mary Beth for lunch at a yummy place called DragonFish.
Now I better get to work.

Last night got a little crazy.

You know how they say liquor before beer you're in the clear and beer before liquor never been sicker? Well they should add to that a warning for mixing in stripper shoes in either occasion. Or your friends will likely have to force you to remove them before you hurt yourself (seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bM6mGMlpb5o) and/or a cat fight my break out in which I get hit in the tit and then back hand you before the dog breaks it up (sorry no footage of that available :( I wish).

Skunk

1. First of all you have to understand what a treachry it is for me to leave the house and enjoy some adult companionship after my children are in bed. To my grandparents this is precisley pure evil. So when I left the house to watch a movie with a couple friend(s) of mine I was already distressed that all the focus of guilt, blame and shame would be on me tomorrow. More so even because I knew that my grandparents were awake in there motorhome and certainly noticed when I left. Sure enough ... My grandmother entered the house for unknown reasons after I left (likey she was checking on the boys because she worried that they would wake up with me gone and that's the kind of grandmother she is [it takes a villiage here and trust me I am grateful to have one] attentive). At any rate here is the savior of my dear baby cousin.... hahaha sucker.

Saviour dude is done sessioning in the BR and low and behold here comes GM. Then he has a second sesh and straight up G -- BAM she's in here like a lawn gnome --- so SHE says

"Every time I come in here it kind smells like skunk or something" and HE says ...!!!! (ctfu <--if you got that I love you)

"I think there was one in the back yard and I've had my window open all day" to which she replies

"Well, did you close your window?"

"NO."

"Well you better go do that," and then she exits.

Thank you baby cousin. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Manically yours,

Ms. Carmella Adell

Tattoo today

Holy HELL I can not tell you how much this damn thing hurt. I have always enjoyed getting tattoos and never put up much of a fuss over pain, but today .... Oh today I got work on my lower back and I literally cried like I was in labor for half of the outline. In face in my head I was debating which was truely more painful. I think it was a tie.
After the outline and two cigarettes things went much better. Few curse word and it actually felt good in some places (I was seriously concerned that my pain threshold has lowered). I was totally unprepared for the for it to feel like that. I wanted it to feel like I remembered it, but all in all it was good and I am super satisfied with it.

Well I'm exhausted.... and want to meditate before sleeping.

Marriage

It's so weird being married on paper. We've agreed to raise the boys together and share our financial responsiblities, but I'm done with the romantic part of us and he's not. It's such a pain in the ass, because here we are having a good family time at the Bend, OR summer festival and it's getting a bit messy. He wants a little physical contact (hand holding and shit like that) and I messed up and was teasing about eharmony. Now he's pissed and I'm indifferent...
What's a girl to do?

Truth be told

It's sad really, but I don't know what to do about it. There are a lot of things that I don't like and many reasons I think that we should stand up to our government and make demands. Peace, universal health care, the legalization of marijuana to name a few. Yet here I sit too terrified to even contemplate beginning to organize.

They have all the guns, the money, and the power. I would likely end up hurt or imprisioned and by proxy hurt my family.

Sigh,

Stomach

Stress or illness, I'm not really sure, but my stomach has been killing me. I pretty much laid in bed most of the day and slept a good portion of it thanks to allergy meds. Now I can't sleep or breath (benedryl only works while I am asleep).

Oh one of my kids cursed at his Aunty today and when she said that she was going to call me and tell the other one spontaneously reacted by shouting "no don't!" as if he had done something - lol. Then to make it even worse when I said "What were you thinking you could act like that for?" He replied "Well, at least I didn't KILL her" -ah the mind of a 10 year old....

What a crappy day

I woke up with a sinus headache from down town L.A. and when that finally when away I got the worst abdominal cramps ever. My kids missed out on open swim because the locker room door cut the shit out of my poor little Cory's toe and then I tried to nap away my pain. FAIL. Now my back hurts too, I must have slept funny. I guess I might as well have partied HARD for the fourth sense I ended up feeling crappy anyways ... oh well too late now.

XOXO

Forth

We're still waiting for the sun to get down before we start blowing things up over here on the west side. I am amazed at how well the nenes are doing with the wait. I haven't heard any pleas to jump the gun as of yet. Sab is anxious for the brownies though ...

It's been hot. I've been tired.

XOXO

Busyness

When ever my grandparents get home it's madness, did I mention that we live in a three bedroom house with seven people, three dogs and four generations? I have to act busy busy busy to not have to deal with the whining kids and nagging g.p.s - ARGGGG.

Now off to the court house on this hot ass day.

Hope you're day is beautiful

June 2nd, 2009

Hello all! I'm Carmella Adell and I have a problem. Well actually I have a lot of problems, but you know there is one that is persistant and annoying. I am notorious for not finishing things. So don't be surprised if this blog suddenly halts and takes a long time to start back up, if at all.

My idea is that I will record my perception of the transformations in my life at this time, but then again yesterday I had this silly idea that I would get up early and go run on the track - hahahahaha.

Thanks for coming and nice to meet you.

Carmella Adell
