Why do people run from kimberly?

A. you have a strange tendency to be possessed by tacky ghosts. B. you always claim to see the future then write it down in vague little stanzas. C. you are able to do strange things like manipulate stupid online quizzes to make them say what you want them to then prove it with your two signatures…all lower case and run-on sentences. (this is a true online quiz made into classic kimberly nonsense =op).

memoirs of a geisha is excellent! it has an intriguing plot, is full of life lessons, and is obviously well-researched! it captures beauty in many ways, on many levels, much like the japanese culture it portrays! i am definitely adding it to my list of favourites!

I just found an excellent stylist, who actually uses the products from the set of desperate housewives! My hair is awesome right now! Next stop...Nicky Clarke!

Ok, I can finally celebrate, something exciting (good) actually happened at work! I might be teaching French at a university on an island! I won't count my chickens before they hatch though.

I was about to celebrate this as the first day in 7 days that I have not had a "nut" (customer) to deal with...but I thought too soon. About 2 hours before we closed, a woman whose size caused both her feet and her head to swell to a size 11 said that I was quite rude after I climbed ladders (for 2 the final hours that we were open) to get 15 pair of shoes for her and then tried to intervene for 20 min on the phone to allow her to use her father's credit card (if we could do the authorization over the phone for him). We could not at that time, so I asked if I could put my commission number on there if she were going to take them to another station. She refused and said that I was quite rude and did not want me to get the commission. She told them at the other station that it wasn't that I couldn't do the authorization for her but that I acted like I was too good to get 10 shoes for her (That is how she interpreted, "I can get a few of them at a time, but sorry I cannot carry all of those boxes at once"...and ma'am, it was 15 pair of shoes, not 10). If I thought I were too good to get them, I would have said that and refused to do so! Then she complained that a lady at the second station was huffing at her and told them that at our station we were all throwing shoes at her head! They would not call me to ask for my commission number with her standing there of course, but it will be corrected in the system in a few days ;o) All of this for only 3 pair of shoes! I guess she finally agreed that 15 pair is a little much!

one of my friends had her cash and keys stolen right out of her purse last night, and whoever took them also took her truck! at a bar where everyone seems to know everyone, you still can't even turn your head for, "2 $#@*% seconds!"

You Are Heineken

You appreciate a good beer, but you're not a snob about it.
You like your beer mild and easy to drink, so you can concentrate on being drunk.
Overall, you're a friendly drunk who's likely to buy a whole round for your friends... many times.
Sometimes you can be a bit boring when you drink. You may be prone to go on about topics no one cares about.

What's" Your Beer Personality?

i have decided to name my car christine (after stephen king). after multiple incidents with this car ever since i have had it (including sliding backward off of a winding drive and landing on a *significant* piece of pipe last year), i can't seem to avoid running into objects that should not be on the highway. in january, i almost lost my spleen and a fatal amount of blood because a tire came off of a semi/trailor?, forcing the car directly in front of me to a sudden complete stop. i spent over a week in the hospital in critical care and three months recovering...just in time for the next incident. about a month or two ago, during a hurricane where it was impossible to see, i hit something the size of a car door on the highway. (it probably was a door from the vehicle that was sitting in the median right beside it). i had to move left to avoid hydroplaning under the semi in front of me which was slowing down too quickly, (probably because it saw the object in the left lane), also in an effort to get around it and the blinding water it was recyling into my view (lack of view!) the entire underneath of my car was shredded. the storm came out of nowhere when i was an hour from home late at night, i understandably avoid driving in situations like this if at all possible! i had just taken my car in for alignment and new front tires that morning, since the old ones were bald from being out of alignment. so it went back into the shop, and they repaired that and some things they missed before...oddly enough one of them being that my left headlight was aimed way left instead of at the road. how did that happen?!? a few days ago, it sounded like something fell from underneath my car, but i didn't see anything. when i stopped, i noticed a cord dangling from underneath the front of my car. all of the lights/blinkers worked, and even after opening the hood, it didn't look like it belonged to anything. i took it in for repair today, and apparently the pressure fan was "missing" but the bolts were all in place. how did that happen?!? my car is possessed.
