Great Golf Ball Adventure, Part 2

Sorry it's been two weeks, bad Karna. Last night we went out to BB McGraws to go dancing and came home and had the GGBA, Part 2 (see the title of my post for the translation haha). Seanne, Laura's cousin, joined us this time. We wore some sweet outfits and snuck under the fence to the driving range next door. There is a double fence, and in between the two fences there are tons of golf balls that never get collected. We got 8 garbage bags full. The pics are on my myspace. I will try to remember how to use Flickr and put some on here. We got 1274 total golf balls. amazing. Laura and I leave for Mexico tomorrow, so I imagine I will have tons of adventures to tell you about next week!

House hunting

Mom got here last night as I already said, and today we went house hunting. I have a decent job, only a school loan payment (car is paid, no other bills), so I figure it is time to stop paying rent to someone and pay it to myself, in the form of a house payment. I want something on the Cedar River, which means 1) I wait patiently for someone to have a foreclosure disaster because that is the only way I will be able to afford one of those houses, or 2) Mom and I win the lottery with the ticket we bought tonight in hopes of making this house hunting business a whole lot easier. 59 million from the Mega-Millions lotto would certainly broaden my options a little.

Words of wisdom

Here are my words of wisdom for Saturday, March 15: Never let a white person do your eyebrows, and if you must, then at least make sure she is not over 60 years old with penciled-in brows.
There has been no recent disaster, but I caved out of desperation back in June and let someone fitting the aforementioned description wax my eyebrows, and she 1)burned the crap out of my face with hot wax and 2) made my eyebrows freakishly thin and scary. took three months to grow them back. Ugh. Watch out for those old white ladies armed with wax.

In other news, mom is here and going to prison with me Monday. If my prisoners screw with me or leave anymore damn dead bugs on my desk when she is there, I am going to rack them in the balls.

Home alone AGAIN

I suddenly find myself with no roommates. Laura is always out with James and Allan has not been home in two weeks and one day. Literally, he runs in, grabs clothes, and runs out. We have not yet broken the news to him that his new little woman is a huge ho bag....oh well, eventually. Once she is gone we will tell him that she is less than virginal. TOMORROW IS FRIDAY! Mom is coming to visit me woohoo.

curb stomping

is what I wanted to do to my students last night. They got the best of me. I admit it. They made me cry but luckily I pull off a good "mad" face until I get out of the room and lose it, cause it would be all over for me if they had seen me cry. They fought tooth and nail against me ALL DAMN NIGHT for two hours straight, and when I was at the END of my rope, they left a goddamn dead huge beetle on my desk. Sad to say, but a beetle was the straw that broke the karna's back. The officers kicked them out for the night. Tonight they apologized in their felon way..."you know we were just fuckin with ya right? We didn't mean to make you mad, we were fuckin with ya". Haha. That's the best apology I could hope for out of them so I am happy.

Where are we going?

To hell if we don't change our ways. That has gotta be on my list of top favorite quotes. Haha. I was DD last night. It was not too bad really. I had fun. I got a DAMN cute dress yesterday. I guess I already told you that. I was on a mission to find a Seahawk last night but I failed like usual. One day, I will hook my pro football player.

Happy birthday to Ginger

we are going out in seattle in about half an hour. I volunteered to drive, I bet that's a shocker for you petersburg people who know a Karna that does NOT drive because she ALWAYS drinks. Well, look at this mature move I just made. DD. Haha. I got new dress today which I am wearing and is SUPER cute, look at my myspace tomorrow and I will put up pictures. I really should start putting pics back on here too for those people without myspace. So, laura and I leave three weeks from today for Mexico. We have been on a diet for a month now...well since the 29th of Jan, so over a month. That's because we leave the 29th so we had exactly two months to diet. I have currently lost 7pounds. Just for fun I tried on a pair of size 7 jeans, and I can nearly squeeze my fat ass into them. Just a few more pounds to go. woohoo. ok then, I'm off to drive us to seattle.

Happy birthday to

Attack

Well life in the prison is exciting lately, and not in a good way. Staff attack yesterday so night class was cancelled. Got off work two and a half hours early. I would say that this part is nice but then I just sit in I-405 traffic so that is not so fun. One of the counselors got the tar beat out of her...apparently he broke her temple and tore her cheek. Other offenders helped pull the attacker off her. Poor lady. She is one of the only counselors I have not met yet but I hear she is nice. Major bummer. She will be ok though.

Hmmm I had something to tell you all this morning but I forgot it. I will write again when I remember. Damn. What the hell was it....I must be getting old. Almost a quarter of a century!

I had to kick a guy out of class today who just would not shut the hell up and stop arguing with me about how he should not have to be in school. The nice part is that other inmates were listening, and once he was gone, they said they thought I handled the whole thing nicely. One inmate said "you gave him 19 chances to shut up and listen to you and on the 20th you did what you had to do. That was done very well." this was from another pain in the ass student so it's nice to hear that they don't disapprove of me involving officers once in a while. As long as you give them ample chances to improve their behavior and they still don't, the inmates don't give you the lable of a nark. Not that I care. If they deserve it, they deserve it.

hey hey hey

Well another successful weekend come and gone. Hmmm I wonder what an "unsuccessful" weekend would entail. Friday we went to the Yellabeak. Super fun. Danced a lot. Met a 6 foot 6 white guy who can dance. Wow. That hardly ever happens. He can swing as good as Venise which is pretty impressive. Saturday was my uncle's 50th birthday party, that was fun, then we went *gasp* to the Yellabeak. We are a little obsessed. Tall cowboyish guy was not there, sad. IT was ok....but not as fun as Friday. I lost at that stupid ass goddamn game, pool, tonight. I hate that game. Laura's whatever-he-is James made us dinner tonight, sweet. I love it when I don't have to cook. Back to work tomorrow. We are GED testing on Tuesday and 12 of my 15 pretesters qualified to test Tuesday! Amazing. My men are so smart.
