Que semana de locura en la oficina, pense que nunca llegaria el viernes santo para por lo menos tener un fin de semana largo. Ya lo que me quedan son 2 dias mas de fiesta, Thanksgiving and Xmas Day and that will be it for this year. Por lo menos en Julio me voy una semana de vacaciones. Ojala que fuera mas tiempo. Pero estoy planificando las otras para navidades, pero los pasajes estan muy caros todavia, y yo me rehuso a pagar mas caro por NY que lo que pague para LA. Tickets are over $500, and I aint paying that when I paid $378 for LA I know it was a very good deal a "once a year deal", but still. Ayer cuando sali de trabajar, fui para Vega Alta, Luis estaba libre ayer y fue para alla asi que me encontre con el en casa de los papas. Pero sali bien disgustada de alli. Quizas es que hay cosas que no logro comprender, y pienso que estan mal. Por ejemplo, Mindy ha decidido divorciarse de O'neill de una vez y por todas, despues de tantos revoluces que han pasado entre ellos, y que se se yo... ella sabe y yo creo que por fin acepto que ella nunca ha amado a O'neill. El pobre hombre ha hecho hasta lo imposible por una reconciliacion, y ha demostrado amor por ella. Ella lo sabe, pero no lo ama. Lo mas logico es que si no lo ama, no esta con el, para que? Todo puede tratar de arreglarse ahora, pero van a volver a lo mismo por que ella no lo ama. Uno no puede vivir la vida pretendiendo ser algo que no es. I can't. I wan't born to be an unhappy bitch. But that's just my point of view. Pues entonces mi suegra pretende que Mindy le de una oportunidad a O'neill. Por que economicamente ella esta bien estando con el. Si es cierto que economicamente estarian bien. Pero eso no lo es todo en la vida. Ademas si Mindy se lo propone, ella puede hechar pa' lante en la vida con la nena. Yo le refute esto a mi suegra con mucho respeto y sutilmente pero cuando seguimos la conversacion y yo vi que no hay manera que ella entienda y apolle a Mindy en su situacion; solo me quede callada escuchandola. Lamentablemente, ella solo piensa en que "el hombre es de la calle" y la mujer tiene que aguantar. Eso no es así. Ya no estamos en esos tiempos donde eso eran lo que le enseñaban a las mujeres. A ser abnegadas y aguantarlo todo. Por otro lado, yo hice un acuerdo con Mindy, de ayudarle economicamente con la nena, pero siempre y cuando ella se mantuviera firme en su decision y empesara a buscar la manera de seguir adelante con la nena. Le estaremos dando $200 mensuales para el cuido (mi suegra es quien la cuida, pero hay que hacerle compra a la nena etc...) mi suegra es quien siempre la tiene. Lo que le daba Mindy a mi suegra para el cuido eso es lo que estaremos dando nosotros. Para que entonces Mindy pueda pagar la casa y las deudas. Ayer cuando estabamos en casa de mis suegros, Mindy llego con su pelo bien arreglado, recortada con blower etc... Yo pense en mi mente "carajo los chavos en estos momentos no es para estar de beauty salon, lo poquito que te sobra es para ahorrarlo". Pero pense tambien que estaba siendo injusta y que ella tambien tiene derecho a hacer sus cositas de vez en cuando. Luego de que ella se fue, me di cuenta que yo no era la unica que pensaba de esa manera. Lo mismo penso Luis y penso Lydia. Pero nada, esta la dejamos pasar. Yo se que es por que como ella le tocaba darle los chavos de la nena a mi suegra esta semana pero como yo se los di, pues algo le sobro y pues... Vamos a ver de ahora en adelante como van las cosas. La realidad es que ella tiene que organizar su vida. Hay varias cosas que me preocupan, como las relaciones que esta teniendo ahora. Tiene que tener mucho cuidado. Ahora cada vez que O'neill se lleva la nena los fin de semanas ella se va de party. Es dinero que bota en la calle, aunque ella dice que le pagan... no se, hay cosas que de verdad es mejor no saberlas. Ya me canse de pensar en este asunto. Now I am just going to take a shower and go somewhere with honey...don't know where since it's good friday and half of the places are closed for the day.

Jennie was here for our birthdays (hers the 19th and mine the 20th). She was here for a week, but we really didn't enjoy much time together since I was working my ass off. The last 2 weeks of the month are very hard for me, because of the end of month closing. Oh speaking of the job another girl from my department resigned, her last day it's tomorrow. Let's wait and see who's next.
We bought a new laptop to replace our desktop that crashed about 2 months ago. I did a research for a couple of weeks, and we ended up with a Toshiba Satellite P105, we got it yesterday at Compusa for $1363. 17inch wide screen (XGA Truebrite), 3d frame rates. Harman/Kardon Stereo Speakers. Intel Pentium 2 Duo Processor. 1.66ghz, Wndows Vista Home Premium 32bit, DVD SuperMulti, IntePro Wireless, etc....Onyx Bue Metallic Lid Cover, Microsoft Office 2007, and Windows Live One Care Anti Virus and it's gorgeous!

It was our 11th anniversary of being together. Our story it's very simple, we met through a pager message (first) and then a long phone conversation, two days later we met, we fall in love and we've been together since then. I didn't beleive in love at first sight until it happened. Feb 28th, 1996. Ironically, last year on this same date, we were at realtors office making the down payment for our first home. This year we didn't do much, but stay home after work. It was closing for me, so it was a tough day. He sent me flowers to work (red roses). And we just spent a very nice relaxing time together at home. That day, at work, we were all wearing "pantunflas", we decided to do something different to celebrate February's Closing, to relax a bit, since it's the toughest day at work, were everybody is going crazy and the pressure it's really on.
March 1st, 2007 Puertoo Rico's Smoking Ban in effect. Totally sucks!
March 3rd, 2007 That day much didn't happen. I had to work from home, but once I was done, Mindy and I went to Dorado Beach had a couple of beers and just girl talk.
March 4th, 2007 That we pretty much just, slack a little bit. In the afternoon we went to Old San Juan to walk around. And we found this new restaurant called Raices (Roots). Awesome place. Great puertorican food! I tried to post the pics but for some reason it's not letting me...shit!
The rest of the week, nothing much really happened...
I feel great! I feel very happy living with Luis and sharing this time of our lives together.

I purchased his gift on Thursday, I got him a Coach Wallet (Mahogany), and a Travel Book of South America since we decided we are going to start traveling on this side of the world. Our goal for next year it's either Argentina (Iguazu Falls) or Peru (Machu Pichu). And of course a very nice little card.
We have no plans for Wednesday (as far as I am concerned), because it's collections closing for me - a hell of a week, a day... complete crazyness.
Last night we had dinner at Macaroni with my friend Ney and her husband David, and we had such a good time! They are such a great couple.
I guess it's all for now... I have to get ready to go out with Luis, it's a beautiful day...

Let's see where can I start.... Thursday I asked my boss if I could leave early (at 3:00pm) on Friday, she said it was ok... couldn't believe it! So Friday believe me I packed up my laptop and left at 3:00 pm on the dot. I went shopping! What a nice therapy I had. After shopping, I went home to Luis.
Saturday... Oh Saturday, Luis wasn't feeling very well, so I had to go to the mall to buy his dad's birthday present, I just got him a nice polo, also I got some stuff for me and him...couldn't help it. And even RA got something, I got her a nice Swatch watch. I also called the flower shop and ordered flowers for my mom, her 65th bday is tomorrow. So since the flower shop ís close to her house daddy is going to pick up her flowers. After that we went to Vega Alta to celebrate Mendez' bday, but before that I visited my mom and grandma and also stopped at the flower shop and left the flowers paid.
Sunday.... went to Costco, and Pep Boys to get new shoes (only 2) for my car, oil change and filter also new pads for the breaks a total of $318...damn... thank God I had the money saved. After all that, we came home, cleaned the house and now we are just waiting for the wrestling to start (PPV No Wat Out).

On Monday I didn't get to go to work, neither did Luis as I explained here before that day. I sould've stayed home the rest of the week instead. I didn't know I was going to have such a bad week at work. I can't deal with it anymore. The situation in my department is out of control. Tuesday afternoon Meche (a corworker) started crying out of the blue... she was too stressed out. Manuela the VP saw her crying and Marvy se metio de presenta y dijo aqui estamos todos asi, no podemos mas con Denise (our boss) yada yada yada... So Manuela rapidamente nos dijo que nos fueramos a una oficina y nos enserraramos con Denise para aclarar todas las situaciones, y issues que tengamos con ella etc... Wrong decision! Wrong forum! Empezo Marvy a hablar por esa boca without stopping... she got mad... she was getting everything out of her system. She didn't think of what she was saying and if it was the right moment for it.... or maybe she thought it was the right moment. Todo salio asi, las cosas no se hacen asi, habiamos gente ahi que no sabiamos ni lo que estaba pasando y yo no queria ni estar en esos momentos alli. The dragged me into the bochinche. It was a mess. Wednesday everything was just... weird, the enviroment was very heavy... was horrible. Thursday was the same... that night I couldn't sleep this whole situation got me very nervous. I just wanted to quit... like many times before. On top of everything I know Marvy is mad at me because I didn't say all the things she wanted me to say. This is the thing... If I have anything to say to her (my boss) I go directly to her, I've done that in 2 ocassions...and that's it. My boss doesn't mind...she might be crazy but she respects me. Friday morning, Marvy and Carlos got into an argument... ugly argument. Marvy is very upset because Carlos didn't speak up in that forced meeting with Denise. Things are so out of control right now... It's crazy.... I just want this whole situation to end. Blah... blah...

Tomorrow I am calling in sick. Luis doesn't want to go to work neither do I. So we are both calling sick. I am getting my hair done in the morning, I think he is going to the gym and then we are going to Home Depot to get some blinds for the living room. I have a wall that is not actually a wall it's a double sliding door, and all this time we had no blinds since we were the only ones living on that side of the housing complex, but not anymore. I want some privacy.
Gotta run... all for now.
