A Crappy Day
Posted on May 1, 2006 by Ching under Babies.
I had a crappy day.. Literally!
It’s like 5:45 am and Molly is yelping and whimpering and crying. I try to tune out the noise. It’s not time yet! I normally don’t get up to let her out until sixish.Â
You want to know what she was crying about? Well, the little turd bucket peed and crapped inside the crate. As if that wasn’t enough, she scooped up the poop and smeared them all over the door of the crate. Needless to say, my morning started out with cleaning the nasty, poop-stained crate and giving my little turd monster a bath.
Giving her a bath isn’t the easiest of tasks either. Now that she has more energy, she actually fights it. Her bath this morning took twice as long as the first couple of times that we’d given her a bath. Of course, she was sickly and lethargic back then. Sometimes I miss the old Molly. I wish she would be a little more mellow (without being sick) because lately she’s been a bit of pain.
We had no idea what we were getting into.

Sometimes I Hate this Place!

 Will it be a ‘Day without Immigrants’?Â
Organizers predict unprecedented participation at rallies against a proposed crackdown on illegal immigration, with millions expected to boycott jobs and schools. “A Day without Immigrants” is meant to show the economic power of immigrantsÂ
Front page on CNN.ComÂ
“Oh, No! The toilets in our schools and offices will not get cleaned”. Yes that was mean I know it, but come on. These people have to be the dumbest people on the planet if they think that this law affects them and only them. I mean if they took a moment and looked at the law they would realize that the law affects ALL illegal immigrants, the Irish, the Russian, the Asian AND the Hispanics, not JUST them. This is an issue that will probably never go away. As long as our borders are open and we allow immigration of other countries into our country their will always be controversy over immigration. One of my coworkers said that we should just take over Mexico since they all want to be Americans so bad. Then they would have no reason to bitch and they would have no reason to immigrate to the U.S. I actually agree with that. If they all want to be Americans so dammed bad then fine, lets just make Mexico, the Virgin Islands and all of those places American territory, declare them as states and start taxing the fuck out of them. Then let’s see them bitch about something. The fact of the matter is illegal immigrants that are working here and not paying taxes, but getting paid in American dollars are hurting our economy not helping it. The only reason I see that these people are complaining is because they will either 1, have to return to Mexico and start new lives in poverty their or 2. Will have to fork over a little over $700 to get their citizenship. Unless the U.S. cuts some kind of deal with them and lets them in for nothing. I think that if they are going to come in for nothing then they should have to pay back taxes for the duration of time they were here illegally.Â
I could go on about this all day long so I better quit now before I “offend” some of the delicate people that may wonder across this board. I wouldn’t want to piss them off and have them complain that I’m some sort of a racist. On the contrary, I could give a rat’s ass who comes to this country, as long as they are doing it the right way and following all of the laws. Like my wife and her family did, of which 3 out of the 4 of them are now citizens of the U.S. because they followed the proper process and laws and paid their dues to become citizens.Â
If you’re protesting and complaining about immigration laws, then you must have something to hide or to loose. Otherwise you would not have anything to complain about. This law only helps those that are already citizens and the rest of us hard working tax paying Americans.Â

My Pot-Bellied Princess

Brian took Molly to the vet yesterday to be weighed. She is now a whopping two pounds and three ounces. That’s over a half pound more than when we first got her two weeks ago. She only weighted a pound and ten ounces then.
Anyway, she’s really playful now and she’s got lots of energy. She just needs to simmer down sometimes, though.

Dinner with Carla and Paul
Posted on April 29, 2006 by Ching under Food and Drink.
Carla and Paul met us for dinner last at Red Lobster. That must’ve been the longest dinner ever! We were there from 6:00 pm to 9:30 pm, not counting the 25 minute wait.
Brian said he would bring me back there again on a Monday so I can have a true crab legs pig-out!

Brian’s Unhappy Face

We went to have dinner at this new resto downtown, The Bamboo House. The place is nice enough but the food is no good.
I got the sampler platter just to try out a variety of things. Brian said the egg roll was alright but not as good as lumpias. The beef was chewy. The chicken was bland. The tempura shrimp was doughy. The crab rangoon was really greasy. It was so greasy that when I split it in half a huge puddle of grease spilled out onto my plate and also the table. (more…)
