Sara and Jim's random, funny musings that will make you laugh, cry, scream, and be thankful you did all three.

About Me

We are Sara and Jim. We worked together at a place called SESDAC that you wish only existed in your nightmares. We also had classes together. We're both brilliantly smart and you'd never even guess that. We're also really funny which astounds most people. We like to be nice, we like to be mean, we like to talk about randomness, we both speak Indian languages, make homemade pizzas, and love iTunes. We both have degrees and jobs. Neither of us are losers but we live in loser-ville. We are racist to each other to show our deep and profound love and appreciation for each other. Someday we'll write a tell-all expose book that will shock and astonish and amaze people. Someday we'll also be rich and Jim will live in Sara's basement. Jim is now BFF's with Sara and her Dweemo husband, Nolan. We are here to pump. You. UP.

A Little Bit of Everything.

So this post is going to go back as far as Halloween. So Halloween night was spent at Sara's place. We had our vampire movie night, complete with food and drinks. It was a fun, quirky gathering of a bunch of dorks who really didnt watch the movies. The next night, was BOWLING. It was fun, except we started off the night by running into the supervisor. Granted it was okay, but looking back, I wish we could have just not seen her. We bowled - we drank - we were there for 3 closing times. We even drank away the Daylight Savings time change. I didnt get home til after 4 am, got up at 9:30am on Sunday and packed up and left town to start a new chapter in my life. (p.s. Sara didnt join in on the bowling fun, she was being a stick in the mud.)

So my first week of work at my new job: Basically it went like this, I'll give you a day by day breakdown. Monday: went in, got my contract, met with staff and had lunch, then went back to the office and did nothing. Tuesday: stayed in the office and learned how to enter data on an online program. Wednesday: went back into the main office, turned in my contract, got back to my office, did nothing, except clean out my desk. Thursday: SNOW DAY - no work. Friday: SNOW DAY - no work.

Now on to the present week. Monday: had to sign a bunch of stuff like time sheets and approve of leave slips then came back to my office to try to hack into a computer that is mine but the former director password protected the hell out of. Tuesday: VETERAN'S DAY HOLIDAY - no work.

As for the election, I believe there is some correction to be made. Sara told about my text I had sent her. To clarify, my text read, as I remember, "damn it damn it damn it fuck fuck fuck shit shit" That was basically my reaction to Obama being named President elect. Why did I react this way might you ask... WELL, overall I'm an experience person. I would much rather see someone who at least finished out his/her first term in the US Senate be elected rather than a freshman senator who hasnt completed the first national office they were elected for.

Obama, in my opinion, means too much uncertainty. I believe he was elected for all the wrong reasons. The most apparent reason: his skin color. I'm not a racist. If you could see my skin you would know. But I feel that too many people voted for Barack Obama for the simple fact that he is Black. Barack Obama is not Black in the same as Black Americans. Obama is truly an African American. He doesn't share the common slave history as much of Black Americans.

Secondly, Obama's past needs some clarification in my opinion. Certain portions of his autobiography were chosen to paint the picture of an Ideal candidate who knows the struggles of average Americans. I do believe that Obama is an elitest. Third, Obama's policies, or lack there of, were mostly popularist in nature, crafted to please a majority of Americans. Fourth, the rhetoric. Obama's soaring speeches where simply too much for me to swallow. How can people buy into so much bullshit without a shred of substance behind it all. One of my friends, you know who you are, said she was tired of McCains "My friends," Well I got tired of "Yes we can" "Change we can believe in" "Are you ready America?" The "yes we can" got REALLY boring. Okay so at the beginning of the primary season we had how many Democrats standing up on the stage crying out for change and Obama is the ONE who really meant it? I'm all campaigned out i guess. Well I'm going, I have other stuff to do now, I'll have plenty more later. PEACE OUT FOR SHIZZLE.
