Maybe I'll upload & download my photography a thousand times and call it art: Random Tuesday Thoughts
Tuesday, June 8, 2010 at 3:23AM 
Those Tuesdays, they sure sneak up on ya, huh? It's almost like they're taking lessons from those shifty Mondays.
Anyway. You know the deal - grab the button, write something random, and link up! If you don't know the deal, well...I just explained it. What more do you want from me?
I just realized that the BlogHer conference is like, a month and half away.
I should probably renew my passport, huh?
This week I've been the lucky recipient of the following new menopausal symptoms: insomnia, a rollercoaster libido, and the creepy-crawlies. I am mentally equipped to deal with only ONE of those in any kind of semi-normal way. I'll let you guess which one.
Good guess!
After my humiliating experience with the bank last week, they once again held onto a cheque I'd deposited through the ATM for way too long. I used to be able to access funds immediately after depositing them, but for some reason someone removed that from my account lately and now I have all kinds of trouble getting my money in any kind of expedient fashion unless I actually go IN to the bank. Which, as you know, is really easy with a toddler in tow.
So I called up the teleservice and ripped some poor guy's face off until I got my money. Then I rode the wave and sent the condescending lender lady a bitchy email. Now she's falling all over herself to get me my overdraft.
Essentially, I received confirmation that being a complete BITCH produces much better results than being nice about things. Sad.
I don't like being a bitch, but apparently I'm pretty good at it.
You know those decorative testicles you can get for trucks? I know, wtf, right? Well, now you can get them for your iPhone. Cause nothing says advanced technology like genitalia on your phone.
I decided the mint in my garden is now leafy enough for mojitos, so I got all the fixin's for mojitos while grocery shopping today. Then I went out to dinner with hubby and ordered mojitos. Yeah, I don't really get me, either.
This weekend coming up I'm attending a photography workshop with my Mom. It's kind of a 'getaway', in that I get to spend two whole days in the company of only adults and two whole nights without anybody waking me up in the middle of the night. You can expect many "arty" pictures of wheatfields in the weeks to come. I'm sure they'll be MUCH different than all the other arty photos of wheatfields that are available from local photographers.
Well, they might be WET wheatfields, since it`s supposed to dump rain all weekend.
(Fun getaway, huh.)
You ever wonder what would happen if you uploaded a video to YouTube, and then downloaded it and then uploaded it again? And then did that like, a thousand times? Well some people don't just wonder. They're people of action.
And so are you, right? So get randomizing!

uh... I'm going to guess creepy crawlys. Did I get it?
Yes, being bitchy does produce far more desirable results. Just one more thing Mom was wrong about.
Have fun on your get away.
yay me... #2 comment and link!!! Yes you do have to be a complete and utter biotch before any banker will take note... believe me... i was that banker!!!! :)
Yep. I learned the bitch lesson when G was a baby. I bitched my way out of thousands of dollars of co-payments.
It is kind of a bummer when you have to go in bitch mode to get results - although that doesn't happen with our local post office because the postmaster and our mail carrier have gold medals in bitchiness.
The photography workshop sounds like fun, particularly the 'only adults' and no one waking you up in the middle of the night for two whole nights. :)
Wheat fields. The creepy crawlies. Dangling testicles. You never disappoint!
Not that I want dangling testicles on my iPhone (nor do I have an iPhone to put them on), but the new iPhone4 has higher resolution. Bet you can't wait to have one to put your testicles on.
Ok, the YouTube dude has way too much time on his hands! I'm planning on returning to blogland full force today so at some point I'll have a post to share with you...it might be midnight but I'm goin' with it :)
I'm still thinking you must not have been treated "Royally" ugh!!
I used to see the dangling testicles on the road all the time. They must boost testosterone in the immediate area because they always made me want to punch the shit out of the guy driving it.
A month and a half. Gulp.
Enjoy the workshop, it sounds magical. Seriously. Well except for the wheat fields. ;) I more of an orange grove gal myself.
I remember all those symptoms. They suck and their timing isn't too great either. I've got one word; drugs! If not for the symptoms at least to make you feel good. I have some personal favorites, one that starts with an X.
A month and a half huh? Good luck with the passport. Here in the US, you already wouldn't have enough time. Have a great trip to your photography workshop. Maybe you can take photos inside if the weather is really bad.
I hate those dangling testicles and I'm so glad that my daughter has never noticed them and asked me what they are. I still haven't come up with an appropriate answer.
My first time doing the random tuesday thoughts! Have a great time at your workshop!
Sorry to had to bitch to get any action...but it did work!! It seems nowadays people only listen is you raise your voice and use cuss words!! They pay attention then!!! Ha!
Can't wait to see your unique and one of a kind wheat fields!!
Great RTT
Hugs

Have fun with your WET wheatfields.
It's been a while since I've shared my randomness ... but I did so this morning. Hope you and your mom enjoy your photography workshop. Methinks I'd enjoy doing that too!
Hugs and blessings,
Have fun on the getaway--even if it rains, you don't have to take care of a small person for two days--that's worth it right there.
I wish I could go to the getaway - I need some photography skillz.
And our bank holds checks like that, too. They never used to, and we've never bounced any. I think most banks are starting to hold. :( We've learned to just deposit through the drive-thru, keeping extra slips in the glove box.
Any getaway without the kids is a wonderful getaway no matter the weather! Enjoy
I think the "squeaky wheel gets the grease" needs a new adjective as bitchy seems to be the only way to go these days.
It's so funny that you have mentioned mojitos. I am on the hunt for a good recipe. I'm having a girls night tomorrow night here at my house and want to test drive a super cool homemade creation.
Being a bitch can be quit effective. The squeaky wheel and all.
What? A month and a half? I should probably buy my train tickets.
Did you hear there is a new version of the iPhone coming out soon? The iPhone 4? Apparently there's an app that can turn water in to wine.
I look forward to your photos of wheat fields. I take lots of pics of trees, so hey. Just roll with it.
That video thing is very weird. That person has too much time on his hands!
Phone balls. Now that's hot right there. Gag.
Sometimes a bitch has got to do what a bitch has got to do.
