Watches

Okay so I've stared a new obsession! I am all kinds of into watches right now. I mean it doesn't hurt that I get outrageously cheap prices on them all through my job. So I wanted to post up some of my faves. Some are in the running for my birthday gift and some I like but even with my discount are outta my range. So this first one? A new Citizen's Watch we just got in. It has real diamonds on the face and outside, and mother of pearl face. It retails for $499. And sorry but can't let out how good a deal I get, but lets just say it is SWEET! This is definitely in the running. It resembles a Tag a lot but the price is so much better. Oh and it's an Eco-Drive which means it runs off of Solar, no batteries needed. A big plus.


Second is this Bulova. Same goes...real diamonds but with a white mother of pearl face. Also has Chronograph. Not that I know what that does but it really looks cool. I also really like this one cause it has a abnormally big face for a woman's watch, looks great on. It also retails for $499. And is in the running. The only down side to this one is the fact that 4 other people I work with have it. It became real popular real quick. It's also a little more sporty than the Citizen.


This one is so cool looking! I has a diamond face but interchangeable bands. So you can be dress (blk), or fun (colored). I really like this one. I'm not positive if I can get it discounted or not though. We carry Movado but not ESQ, but ESQ is by Movado so I don't see the problem, fingers crossed. Anyway I think this one retailed around $300 but I'm not sure. Maybe in the running, if I can get it through work. So far I like this face the best, I just wish it had a SS band too. Another good point with ESQ is since they are by Movado you know you have a really great watch name behind you. Ya know?



Well I had a lot more watches to show you all, but for some reason Blogger is being freaking retarded and won't let me put anymore pics up! FREAKING A. So annoying. So maybe you'll get a Watches II soon. But for now....what one was your favorite?

Really Pissed.....Maybe a new Job oppertunity?

Okay first off I got really pissed at the gym tonight. One of the things I loved about my gym when I signed up was that is was open to 12midnight, I'm a very late person. So to be able to go to the gym at 9pm or even 10pm and get a good workout is great for me. So when I moved over to where I am now the only gym by me was only open till 11pm, SUCK! But within the last 6 months they built a new gym right by my house, yeay me! And guess what? It's open till midnight. Which may I point out they are all the same gym why the different hours? Stupid. Anyway, I get done work about 9:45pm and get to the gym right before 10pm. So I'm doing my cardio thing and am about to finish up when I hear an announcement, something something 15 min., finish you work out. blah blah blah. Well I look at the clock and it is only 10:45. So I'm all confused but like I told you all it's been a few months since I've been to the gym. So I am thinking they changed their hours. Well I try and rush through some arm things and am heading out around 5 of 11. When I leave I notice lots of people still there, and this one guy just walking into the gym. So here's my thoughts, either the gym is retarded and he was making a 1 hour and 15 min. announcement (who does that?) and I misheard, or they changed their hours and nobody knew and nobody else heard the announcement I did (fat chance huh?), or the guy working read the clock wrong and made the announcement at the wrong time (I'm going with this one!). So regardless I am pissed cause I had to cut my workout short! But I did come home and do some dumb bell arm things. But I don't think it did much cause I don't really know what to do with them.

Okay on to the new job possibility. I can sell! I've sold cosmetics and skin care, I've sold Jewelry, I've sold Avon, I've sold ugly country stuff. Point being I am good at sales! It's my nitch, I got it down. So I've been considering going to real estate school for awhile now. And just this week we got a new person working with us and she just got her license. So I've been asking her questions and she said if she sells one house she makes more money than she does working one month at our job! OMG, I am really gonna have to do this. And it also seems really good for me cause since my kids are both gradually starting school I need to find a career for myself, what do I really wanna do? I definitely don't want to stay in retail! Yuck! But I can picture myself doing real estate. I mean I know you gotta work hard, but in the long run it's something you can do on your own and really make big. I think I just might be going for this. What do you all think?

'A' Moment ~ I swear I didn't teach her that!

This all happened a few weeks ago but I never got around to posting it.....

Okay so I'm running around to every sports store there is from here to PA. I cannot find football cleats in J's size. Suck! I am so annoyed. So finally the day of his first practice I throw him and A in the car and we're off to look at another mall and stores about 1/2 hour away. On the way there A falls asleep so I carry her into the store....no go, not J's size....we head back to the car and when I put A in her seat she wakes up and starts crying "why did you wake me up?" me, "I'm sorry baby, go back to sleep and I'll carry you into the next store." so she cries a bit more and then starts talking to J and is wide away. Yet when we arrive at the next store she wants me to carry her. I say "no, your awake now, I'm not carrying you. You can walk with J." so she's crying and whining, and all the sudden I grasp what she's saying.

A~ "Why is she looking at me?"
Me~ "Who?"
A~ "That girl! She's laughing at me!"
Me~ (I glance back and see a little girl about A's age walking with her dad, not paying A any attention) "A, she's not laughing at you."
A~ "Yes she is and she's not the same color as me!"

OMG I almost had a heart attack! First of all the little girl was Hispanic so she wasn't' really much darker than A. And secondly WHERE THE HELL DID SHE LEARN THAT??? OMG I never talk about color and all that. I mean really my mom's as white as they come and my dad being Puerto Rican is very very tan. I never heard her say anything like that.

Then just recently my sister was over and she has a 7 month old baby. Well my niece is on our side 1/2 everything and 1/2 PR and her dad is African, he's from the Ivory Coast. So she's very dark, not black dark, but like a PR with a very dark summer tan, you know? Well my sister is dark to begin with, darker than I am, but her daughter is still darker. Well when she was over A looks at them and says to my sister "Why aren't you the same color?" talking about her and her daughter. Where is this coming from? OMGoodness, that is all I need. Her going around making racial remarks about peoples color. lol.

J did it a little when he was A's age. But not as blatant. He'd just refer to people as 'the brown man' and 'the white man'. It was funny cause he would say this "mommy, daddy, A, me, ti-ti* H, and grandmom are white and uncle J, pop-pi*, and ti-ti* S are brown" lol, cause my brother and one sister along with my dad are really tan year round unlike my other sister me and my mom who are all white. lol. Kids are to funny sometimes.


*I know this isn't the way you are most likley supposed to spell these words but it is the spanish version of dad, and aunt. My kids call them that but that doesn't mean I know how to spell them. My dad never taught us Spanish, even though he's fluent. It still pisses me off to this day. So forgive me.

'J' Moment ~ My handsome boy!

My baby is getting so big. And cuter and smarter by the day. I swear overnight J has become a big boy! I know I sound like such a sap but all you parents know what I mean, how it happens over night.
J is playing tackle football like I told you all, he has practices 3 times a week. He is sooo cute. He's loving it, he may not be the best in all the drills but he is having so much fun. Well today they are getting their helmets and have to practice in them. So I say to J...

Me~ J, know what you have to wear at practice today?
J~ My helmet! I know, daddy told me.
Me~ Okay, well it's gonna be a little heavy and you'll have to get used to it, so don't give up baby.
J~ I can handle it mom. I'm a big boy, I can carry heavy stuff.

OMG, isn't he sooo stinkin' cute!!! I just love this boy to death.

J & A Moment ~ OMG, OMG, OMG!

These were my exact words yesterday as I turned from the computer and saw my son standing behind my daughter with a pair of scissors in his hand. And when I got up and ran to them and saw a clump of hair on the counter! That's when the tears came. I am not lying! I was almost hysterical. I didn't even want to look at their hair. I just grabbed the scissors and went into the bathroom to calm down. When I came out I saw my daughter now had bangs (and if I wasn't so upset I'd admit J didn't do a bad job) and then as I ran my fingers through her hair more clumps came out! OMG!!! So I grab them up and go to the Hair Cuttery! While J is hopping outta the car I notice something off....OMG....he has a bald spot in the center front of his hair!!! He snipped a chunk of his hair too! OMG OMG OMG! I don't think I've stated OMG so much in my life. So leaving the hair place my daughter has angled hair in the front and a few inches off the back and my son.....he's basically bald. Yup, a zero on the sides and a one on top. Thank God it's football season and it'll grow back by time school starts. KIDS! I swear they'll be the death of me.

Oh and how bout this! I'm in the car with the kids taking J to football practice (I had just gotten home from the gym) and J looks at me and says

J~ Mommy why are you wearing you night shirt?
Me~ I'm not!
J~ Yes you are, you wore that shirt to bed.
Me~ A few nights ago, I cleaned it since.
J~ No it was last night.
Me to JD~ Did I really wear this to bed?
JD~ (laughing) yes.
Me~ (so embarrassed. to J) Don't tell anyone!
J~ (Laughing) I'm gonna tell all my friends!

OMG this is what I get for having all my clothes thrown around my room. I just grabbed a shirt for the gym and ran. lol. And now he's telling his friends things? I need to be really careful!

(maybe I'll add hair pics later. Blogger isn't working with me on that right now. lol.)

A Post for my friend the Jerk!

LOL, okay well don't get all excited, you didn't win a prize or anything. lol. And anyone can actually answer. But I have work-out/gym related questions here. So here it is. When trying to lose weight....WHAT THE HELL IS THE BEST THING TO DO??? Okay can you notice I'm a bit frustrated and lost? See I just wanna lose weight the right way but fast. And I don't know what to do. Do I just do cardio? For how long? Or do I have to do machines? Which ones.
See I had a personal trainer take me through a time or two but I can never remember all the things they tell me to do. You know? And I sure as hell cannot afford to have a personal trainer all the time. Uggg.
I hate this crap. Oh! Do the classes really do anything, or are they a waste? I usually do the kickboxing classes, or step & sculpt. I tried cycling, but let me tell you those itty-bitty seats are not made for a puerto rican ass. lol.
So tell me everyone, Jerk, what do you do that works? Or what do you suggest??? HELP!!!
I'm going to Vegas in November and I want to drop 30 pounds. Is that feasible? Or even healthy? See I don't even know.

Can someone PLEASE explain???

Okay last night I watched a movie and was seriously let down. What movie you ask? Eyes Wide Shut. Has anyone seen this? I really don't get the reason for making the film. Okay Nicole K. annoyed the crap outta me, the way she talked irked me. There was no point. I think someone just wanted to make a movie with lots of tits in it. Cause there was definitely lots of that. But no sex! Not like I'm so freak and pervert, but it's kinda like a book. The lead up...but no deal. Then the lead up.....but no deal. Whatever. So Tom finds out his wife may or may not have had sex with some navel officer a year ago so he goes out and ALMOST has sex with a hooker. Then he sneaks into some freakish devil worship sex club where there are tons and tons on naked women having sex with random men and each other....and he just watches. Then he's found out and asked to strip...yup, naked. But nooooo he gets "saved" by one of the naked girls that tried to warn him to leave. Then all this other weird stuff happens and he's trying to find out what that club was. Basically nothing gets figured out and he tells his wife about all he did, she cries. They go shopping with their daughter for Christmas and ...... THE FUCKING END!!!!!!!!!! Ummm, did I miss the point of this movie somewhere???? There's a good possibility I did since it was so boring I fast forwarded through some of it. A lot of it. But okay enough is enough, I just needed to rant about this sorry ass movie.

A Goal and a Prize for me!

Okay my birthday is in a few weeks, 8/28 to be exact. And I know my blog profile says I'm 25 but I really am 24 about to be 25. So point being, over the last few months I've become such a lazy ass, haven't gone to the gym and have been eating shit. So I started back at the gym and promised myself if I lose 10 by my birthday I'll get myself a tattoo for my birthday! I've wanted one forever. So just wanted to say it out loud so I could push myself more.
10 pounds is by no means all I want to lose but just a starting goal, ya know?
Wish me Luck!

I'm so excited!

And I just can't hide it! LOL, okay that was dorky. But I was just going with it. ha ha. But really I am excited, an awesome friend of mine has been writing for awhile and I love her stuff.....and she is getting published! Wooo hooooo. So go read all about Tami Boyer on Sancuary's Finest! Just wanted to post a link here too!
