Thanksgiving is coming up super quick. I have to remember to take the birds out of the freezer tomorrow. I love cooking. I'd love to cook all the time but the dishes after are what I hate. If I had a way of not having dishes to clean up, I'd be a happy girl :)

Black Friday is usually another holiday for me. Finances this year will prevent that. This sucks.

I'm so happy it's only a 3 day week. A full week of work would be a kick in the shorts right now.

I'm off to bed with my box of tissues..this sucks..

After dropping an assload on the hairs I decided it was time that the other end got cleaned up so I stopped at the cheap nail joint in Walmart. They've done a good job here. I've had my feet done once at a fancy salon and that chick totally turned them into raw hamburger. No, I stand corrected. The last time I had my feet done in a real spa, it was heavenly! The price was a special for some sale and it was half price. Even on sale, I could get two pedicures for the price of that one at the cheap nail joint. But I digress. This little chick worked for her money. Hard. I was even grossed out. I think she almost kissed my ass after I gave her a $10 tip. Long gross story on why I gave her that much but I sure think she earned it. That brings me to my next point. I really thing that out of courtesy, staff at the nail joints should really not be speaking in whatever language that their customers do not understand. I'm sure I've had some nasty things said about my feet over the years. I wish I had a job that I could talk in a foreign language in front of somebody and rip on them to no end.

Overall, it took me about 5 hours to get my primping done and a short walk through Walmart. I think I'm a bit tired now. I also did an assload of cleaning today too. I think something just ain't right....

You do a job that I could never do. I admire you for it. I thank you for it. I hope you all had a nice relaxing day.

To the one special soldier I know, my biggest thanks to you. I don't know how you did it and came out functioning on the other side.

With my deepest respect,

AC

I've spent most of my life since then playing and pimping out my phone. It had a few quirks the first day like crashing and coming back to life in all spanish. That was a bitch for a girl who doesn't know more than taco and burrito to figure that bitch out. I did and all was good. I also had one night where all my apps crashed but a reboot cured it.

Let me give you a review of a newbie to this after having a Blackberry in my possession for the last year and a half.

First off is the virtual keyboard. That just freaked me the fuck out. I fat finger almost everything. I'm a very tactile person. The lovely thing about this phone is that it has a slide out keyboard. Shitty thing is that it is so wide. My fingers don't know how to type on it! The other part was that it took me 4 days to find the damn question mark on the slide out keyboard. Once that I did find it I felt like an idiot. Well, back to the virtual keyboard. I'm slowly getting used to it. I have it set to vibrate when I hit a key so I know that I hit something. It seems the lighter I touch, the better off I am.

The apps rock ass. iPhone eat your heart out. It's easy as hell to fly around to all the programs. There are tons of free apps too. I know there are pay ones too but I'm too damn cheap to even look at those. I have everything except a yahoo mail widget.

The gps almost made me need a new pair of panties. It works off of Google Maps so it's just like using Google Maps online. The one time that I needed it, I didn't have an address. I just googled the name of the place and there it had a navigate button next to it on the search page. I just hit that and away I went. It was dead on and didn't annoy the shit out of me! There is no comparison to the gps on the Blackberry. That has no voice, no recalculation, no shit. This has made me remove the gps from my Amazon wishlist.

Google Voice...wow..I love this thing. I got to pick a phone number where ever I felt like getting one. It transcribes voice mail and screens all my calls. There's a lovely little feature that allows me to choose which number I'm calling from. I love it!

One of the biggest loves of this phone is instant gmail response. There is no waiting to refresh like on the Blackberry. I also love that you can send attachments too! There is no way of doing that from the Blackberry gmail app.

That's it for now :) Time to play with the phone some more!

The fun of this is, I get to make a Top 10 list of my choice and then award some more people this lovely honor :)

I've been toying around with a top 10 list and it's been hard to come up with something interesting. It may be less than 10 but, all hell, I'm late on this already. So here is:

AC's Top 10 Porn Sites

10. Gigagalleries- This is one of the older sites that I go to every now and then since the invention of the porn tubes. It has your choice of movies or pics in every category imaginable.

9. YouPorn-The first of the tube porn sites that I found back in the day. Good selection but no categories.

8. Tube8- A fine tube porn site that I dance around now and then.

7. Spankwire- Another fine tube porn site.

6. Ok..I got nothing here...insert your favorite in a comment for me :)

5. Mr Snake- This site was shared with me by an old coworker. He was surprised it made it past his child filter at home. This site has it all! It would be #1 if they didn't have many videos deleted or choppy buffering.

4. Extremetube- A good site to take care of my naughty, more fetishy, side.

3. Redtube-This site used to be at the top of my list for sometime. I still visit it often.

2. Literotica-I know this is not a movie porn site but sometimes I like to create my own imagery. They have more stories than you'd know what to do with. I've been reading this site since before I was legal. Woops!

1. Pornhub- My #1 all around go to site for a porn fix. As their slogan says, it gets your dick bigger and your pussy wetter.

Well...I'm looking at Saucy's list of who she awarded it to and I'm just at a loss here. I only have 1 to add off the top of my head.

The Missouri Savage- Always a quirk to read :)

Dang it...my top 10 has me distracted now......

AC's Tofu Yum Yum

First up, the tofu prep:

Take a block (12 oz) of extra firm tofu and place it between a pile of paper towels. Throw a plate on top of it and add some weights like can goods. Let it sit for about a half hour to get some of the excess water out. Then cut it up into 1/2" to 3/4" cubes. Throw them in a gladware bowl with a lid. Next up is the sauce:

Worechester Sauce

Liquid smoke

Few shots of Tabasco

Korean BBQ Sauce

Soy Sauce

Throw enough if to coat well and go heavier on the soy sauce. Lid up and shake to coat. Let this sit for about an hour to soak in all the salty goodness.

After an hour, make some lo mien noodles according to the directions on the package. When these are done cooking, put a large fry pan on the hot burner. Time to add the veggie part. Use whatever you'd like that goes with a stir fry. I just used baby corn and water chestnuts. Throw the vegetables into the hot pan and then dump the whole tofu bowl in. Cook gently til everything is heated through. You could add the noodles if you'd like at this point. I kept mine separate.

Plate up and garnish with bamboo charcoal sesame seeds and chow mien noodles. Eating with chops sticks is optional but more fun. Add a glass of white wine to make the meal complete.

I tell ya, give it a try. You'd be surprised.

Back in the teenage years of AC, AC's sister was fun loving and knew how to have fun for herself. She was, how shall I say this, a lush in her teenage years and spent time with friends and had fun for herself. I always wanted to spend time with her but I was too young and knew that as I got older we could go and do things together. When I almost became of age and maturity to hang with her, she met her husband. Talk about a grinding halt. It was always about him. Then they got married. She walked down the aisle already pregnant (woops!). The kids then came into play. There was no such thing as doing anything without the kids. A night out? Forget it. I just figured the wish to have some time to let loose with the sister was never going to happen.

As the kids aged, the more protective she got of them. She said that when they got older they could handle more time without mom. She refused to let other people watch them. Out of necessity she started to have to but only for a few hour increments. Fast forward to this year.

Sis has not been really happy with hubby. She finally hits whits end. She finally decides that it is done. Our mother, on the other hand, still thinks there is hope and thinks the kids are going to be forgotten by her. She's a moron. Sister moved out and has been going through a lot of pressure if it is the right thing to do. This morning firmed my opinion. It's the best thing for her.

My sister called me and told me that if she calls for help tonight that I better come running. I'm thinking the worst. Maybe hubby is going to attack her or she's going to do something stupid and end up in jail. Nope. She's just going to party with her best friend and this will be the first time she's drank to drink in about 10 years. She sounded to have her spark back and the sister I know and love is back.

I got her to agree to going on a little vacation with me to somewhere warm and adult. I think now I have a sister that I can go and do things with again! Dammit! Now why does she have to live so far away?
