I am sorry for the lack of posts in the few days. I have been overwhelmed with things to do at the house and work of course.
I finally got to have a few days off yesterday and today.
Monday I spent compiling ways in which to kill a mouse. A teeny tiny house mouse found its way into our house and I was trying to rid myself of it. After $30 in mouse catchers, we caught him and we helped him out of the house. If you have ever had a mouse in your house or garage for that matter, you know just how annoying they are. BTW, what is it about a mouse that makes people yell that “ahhh” horror scream?
Today, Tuesday I found myself doing laundry for most of the morning and playing fetch with the pups. My girlfriend Dana came over and we played Rock Band for a few hours. Lunch time rolls around and we decide that we were gonna go grab some subway for lunch. A short trip (like 15 minutes) turns into 3 hours when a lady in a 325 BMW isn’t paying attention and tries to turn left as Dana and I are going straight. We hit the lady so hard that the airbags shot out. Did you know that airbags can shoot out at over 150 mph? We waited around for a trooper forever. To make a long story short, she was found at fault and Dana’s car is pretty much totaled. We went to the hospital a little later because of our back pain and come to find out, I have a bruised rib, strained neck muscles and possible sprained collar bone. $110 on the BMW driver’s tab and I am sitting at home with a full bottle of vicodin and a big plate of home made pasta…mmm!
I am gonna hurt like hell in the morning, I can promise you that.
So I’m sitting here watching “We Own The Night” on BluRay with N* without a care in the world. This is causing severe writer’s block for me. I get a great title or topic and then I lose all train of thought or interest in the topic. As I searched across the internet for something to talk about I came across this great article on Life Hack:

Chivalry is defined as courteous behavior typically directed towards a female by a gentleman.
While on Dr. Phil, Dick was described as chivalrous by one of the other guest stars…What in the hell was she thinking?
Read Dick’s full post here.
On to my commentary on his idiotic thought process:
1) Opening Doors:
Dicks Explanation: Men open doors because woman will walk into them otherwise. Men do not want to have bruised brides.
Ms.Caesi: How many times have you walked into a door? How many times have you seen a female walk into a door? In fact for your viewing pleasure please enjoy this manly man slamming his face into glass. None the less, gentleman open the car door or house door for their lady because it is an act of respect.

Things I would like to obtain this year:
1. New Car
2. Internet Identity
3. Herb Garden from TV
4. A New Laptop
5. A Collection of New Novels

Lindsay as Marilyn
Lindsay Lohan attempted to channel the late Marilyn Monroe’s famous “The Last Sitting” photo shoot by posing nude for New York magazine’s Spring issue.
I can definetly say that Monroe takes the cake by far.

I came across the most disturbing thing on the Internet today. Watch the video Here.
I almost cried.
I was once a vegetarian for two years. Now I am seriously considering it all over again. It is ridiculous and disgusting how those poor animals are treated. It makes me seriously second guess the quality of the meat that I have eaten in the past. I don’t want to eat anything with a face.
Tens of thousands of chickens are smashed into a pen and remain there for their entire lives. With all the antibiotics and hormones injected into the birds daily, they often develop too quickly for their own legs and become paralyzed. As shown in the video, the farmer just beats the affected birds and lets them die in the corner. They will never receive medical attention even if they have bloody sores. Infected and dying the birds are taken to a slaughterhouse where their throats are slit and their feathers scorched off–a process in which many of the birds are still conscious.

This was a great post I came across on In My Heels about dealing with stress:
“I am writing this to the woman who wants it all. I am all about wanting it all. I dream big, I aim (really) high, I think whoever thinks I have delusions of grandeur apparently doesn’t know me well enough, and I sip from a glass that’s half-full.
It’s wonderful, really.
What ISN’T wonderful is the insane amount of stress that can come from having to multi-task and drudge through a way too busy day. Stress is like quicksand right at the very center of your dreams. You add to, tweak, or create new dreams and goals and while you are trying to move forward with all of your plans, the quicksand sucks you and your strength away as you try to forge on! The less strength you have, the less you are able to manage. Regardless of what success is for you, effort and energy is required to make the engine of your dreamboat purr. If you want to be super-mom, a straight-A student, a star at work, handy-sans-the-man, or (eek) everything at once–
You’re going to need a system.
Men are better than woman because only 66% of men wash their hands after using the restroom and 88% of women do.
Thank you Dick for proving that men can be disgusting pigs.
Dick: “Urine is sterile, fellows and gentleman. You’re washing your hands too goddamn much.”
Yes Dick, urine is sterile however when it leaves the body it picks up bacteria from the skin. The same skin that you have your hands all over to avoid pissing on the floor. You don’t see us applying urine to open wounds.
FYI: Failing to be a hand washer means you are putting yourself and anyone who you come into contact with at risk of infection regardless of gender. Every time you shake hands with a non-washer, pick up or hold an object just held by a non-washer, or touch something just touched by a non-washer, you take a chance of infecting yourself with any number of cold-causing viruses or the flu. Bacteria can also be picked up or transmitted this way.
Cell Phone Companies are a pain regardless of which one you choose. Each one requires a 2 year contract with all these hidden fees and services. I had a 2 year contract set up with Verizon and I was pretty content. I had more than enough minutes, but I had all these random 411 charges and text pic charges all of the time. I have long since cancelled my contract and been introduced into pre-pay.
I currently have an AT&T Go Phone and I haven’t had any issues with it. I pay about $70 a month with 3000 anytime minutes and unlimited text and nights and weekends. The only issue I am running into now is that I want a smart phone to catch my email on. N* has had his iPhone for a while and is happy with it, but that isn’t really the route I want to take. I am looking more into a Treo or a phone similiar to the Virgin Mobile Wild. Unfortunately, because I have the Go Phone I have to pay the full price for the phones which are like 450-700$. Then I have to update my phone plan an extra $20 a month. Its not so much that I don’t have the money, I just don’t want to pay that much for one of those phones.
We need a cell phone revolution.
Fast Forward to Noiseable Communications..
A Go Phone-esque network where you pay half the price of the phones you want and can customize your plan as needed for one flat fee.
Please hurry Google Android!
Oh what a wonderful world it would be.
