Its Hot

In Boston we dont have spring. It goes from Winter to Summer sometime in late May or June. Billie Jean likes the summer because she goes outside more often but she also gets HOT! Here is a pic of Billie in front of the AC in our living room.




This is where she sits all day when its hot. Isnt she so cute???



I also got a new haircut. Its short.

throwin' F Bombs

So as I blogged about yesterday I am having a bad week. I was frauded by someone I thought I could trust. Today I saw that person and FLIPPED OUT. I'm not really one to handle a bad situation without throwing some F-bombs. I was speaking to the person and he was not giving me the info I needed and was not budging on our requests of him. So I lost it at the very end. I said some shit and ran upstairs.

I called my parents. I told them I didn't feel comfortable being home alone with this person just downstairs. My dad came to save the day and be my enforcer if needed. He might be a 58 year old man with a new beer gut but a couple of years ago he was one crazy Vietnam vet. I felt safe. My dad has protected me in the past but this felt different. I had to smile after he left and when he called I was on the other line. I didn't pick up right away so when I called him back he was worried. He said he was glad he didn't have to drive back to the city. I just smiled. I have a great relationship with my father and he would do anything for me but this time - this time I wasn't the one overreacting and being silly. This time I was right and my dad agreed and was there to protect me.

I don't know how it happened but I have some wonderful men in my life.

Bad People

I have made my way through life standing up for myself. At Dairy Queen as a kid if some adult cut me in line I made sure I told him what was up. I am short so I always make myself known so i dont get screwed over.

When I worked at my dad's bar there were all sorts of people who would do or say things just to get a rise out of my dad. Well my dad knew better - they were only going to get a rise out of me. One day this kid decided that he'd grab my ass but said he was trying to get my beer opener out of my back pocket. I quickly grabbed his arm and in some sort of fluke martial arts move I pinned him to the bar. After that my dad always said that "Jaci could take care of herself" or "Im not the one that you should be afraid of". At the office I'm still the one to be afraid of. I'll stand up for my self, my people and my clients.

Thats why what happened this past week is still just so crazy. I had someone that I thought I could trust essentially steal thousands of dollars from me. I'm not going to go into specifics but its bad.

I didnt think I could be manipulated and I didnt think that someone could rip me off like that. I guess even though I am pretty self aware of the world I just didnt think that people were THAT bad. But they are... people are awful.

This whole situation will most likely change me for life. It will hopefully make me smarter but will also make me trust less or sometimes not at all. I just keep going over the situation in my head. Over and over again. What did I do wrong? What could I have done? Does my husband trust me anymore to handle things? Do I trust myself to handle things? How did I let someone manipulate me like that? How did I let this happen?

Its a long way from cutting a child in line at Dairy Queen but bad people are still out there. This whole thing has just made me that much more aware of whats going on.

Playoff Quotes

" Why doesnt Doc play [Eddie] House more often? What did Cassell tell him that his alien buddies would come down and kill him [if he didnt play]?" - Brett


"I need a drink for the 4th quarter. Hey Brett (last name) its the 4th Quarter!" - Brett (who has been to TOOO many Celtics home games)


"Pierce is playing like Billie's butt when it stinks real bad" - Brett

It was my Twin!

So this is a pretty crazy article. The Sun is reporting that there was a Chinese baby born with a penis on his back. He was once a twin but the other twin was absorbed into him and the penis is all that is left of the other twin. Apparently its common. I know this is awful but it makes me think of that hysterical part of My Big Fat Greek Wedding where she is telling the inlaws about the "bubopsi" she had to have and found out that the bump was actually a tooth, hair and spine of her twin! "It was my twin!".



Hopefully this poor kid can live a normal life.

I heart Target

I dont think i want to buy clothes anywhere else. Why do I love target so much? Every time I walk in there I leave with $100 less dollars in my checking account - ppsssttt dont tell brett.

I do need some tank tops - i think there is another trip to target in my future.

Recently I bought a long jacket, dress, and tons of cute shirts there. Who knew?

I'm going to do a closet purge very soon. I started today and I need to finish it up this upcoming week. I cant put away any of my winter clothes b/c i cant even get to my space bags under piles of clothes. I have a huge walk in closet that I dont even use anymore because its filled with so much crap. Time to throw stuff away!!!!

Brett has some gross stuff too. Time to get rid of the Spring Break 01 t-shirts!!!!
