Something has to take care of this pain....here are my symptoms:

Java Monster Reviews

Since I recommend them to anyone and everyone I should write my reviews for the Java Monsters I have tried. It's actually all of them off the new line. I must say when you have a JM at 9am then pick 11:30 am to have another one...well it makes for a very peppy and exciting Laura. Even the kids at the children's home were laughing at me dancing to the songs on the radio. I love Java Monster and you should to. I think they secretly add crack to them. On to the reviews.

Chai Hai- Not a coffee blend but the actual tea. I prefer my Chai tea warm. This is ok though. Has a bit of a cinnamon backround. It is smooth, but if you don't like teas, this probably isn't the Monster Energy Drink for you.

Irish Blend- Uh can you say Yummy? Makes me feel as if I am drinking an actual adult beverage! Kinda a hint of Bailey's Irish Cream.

Russian-This is also yummy but I felt as if it was even more alcohol tasting. I even thought I could smell the alcohol which I guess isn't a bad thing. The alcohol would be Kahlua....White Russian? Is that like a drink? Anyways yeah....

Lo-Ball- I like to drink this when I have already had a Java monster for the day. It's half the calories as a regular Java Monster so it makes me feel less guilty. Its a sweet coffee blend nothing cool about the flavor.

Nut Up- Ok I was reluctant to try this one but guess what? It's my total favorite. Nut Up gets Two Thumbs Up from me...and I love love love this one. I would say its my favorite. Out of them all. A second choice would be Mean Bean which was in the original line.

The only one I haven't tried is the Big Black (original line) and I am just scared to. I don't want to put over $2 on something I won't like, but for the sake of having all of them I should just suck it up and try it. Maybe I will put my kids in the car and head to the only place I know carries all these flavors. They know me as the Java Monster girl by my eye twitches.

TOP THREE JAVA MONSTERS
1. Nut Up
2. Mean Bean
3. Lo-Ball

For shits and giggles the rest in order:
4. Loca Mocha
5. Irish Blend
6. Chai Hai
7. Russian
8.Big Black (only cause I havent tried it yet)

All in all I wouldn't kick anyone out of bed because I do like them all, but if I had to say I guess I am a bit 'nutty' since the two top flavors are nuts. Funny because I am from Ohio..and I love the Buckeyes.... I LOVE NUTS!!!

Oh Sweet Motivation

So after last nights fun post, I thought wow I need a motivator. I have a goal and I need to stick with it. This means that I will be snacking on a lot of my salsa and carrots again. Not that I mind it, it gives me veggies that I need to be eating, but I just want another SIGG bottle. Since they are so expensive I thought I would say to myself "hey fat ass you have to earn it" so here I am earning another SIGG bottle.

Why have two expensive water bottles, you may be asking. Well, for starters I do love the way the water tastes out of it. I like how its stylish, and I like feeling good about myself. I don't think its so wrong to save the planet a few less plastic water bottles either. I don't really have to justify it to you though because I don't really care why you question me.

I took the kiddos to the library tonight and then we went to Kroger because I had to get milk and bread. I can't believe the price of things these days. It does make me want to cry over spilled milk.

Working out tonight...I only did the gazelle and I hardly broke a sweat doing the 140 BPM Podrunner thingy ma-bob. I do have a work out CD that I did the other night that made me sweat a lot. I think I need to try 150-plus beats per minute to get a sweat going. Dudes, I am going to get another SIGG bottle. $1 a pound is what I am paying myself. I am proud tosay that in the week I have had my Ipod I have worked out 3 times! It has proven itself very useful. I love thee Ipod.....I always will.

Joe Dirt plays Dirty!

If any of you have been a sufferer er er...of anxiety you will know how much it sucks! It really SUCKS! I have been dealing with high anxiety level for about a month. It isn't much that I share with many people and I feel sometimes the ones closest don't even understand. I don't really have a reason to be anxious. I have the heat paid, electric paid, phone...etc but I think its past situations and the 'what if's' that make me super anxious.

I know its at its peak when I can't even seem to sit on my couch for more than 5 minutes and just chill out. It is also bad when I can't go to sleep because I wonder if the alarm is on. Then I wonder if it's loud enough. Then I wonder if it doesn't go off then I might get fired...if I get fired I can't pay certain bills. Then someone will take my kids away because I am not taking care of them.

See the cycle? So last night was one of those nights that wouldn't let me go to sleep. And here I sit tonight trying to fight even relaxing my body to REST. I can't get it to stop. I believe this is where I need to go see a medical professional and see what they say.

I have had some stress at work too, sharing my office with someone who can't seem to get my hours straight and she's all up in my space. Then the executive director is like down my neck to get my drivers license renewed. It expires on the 22nd...shes like on top of me like a starving person running for food being throw from helicopters in umm..one of those countries we send food to. I know it was so wrong of me to say it but it's how I feel 24/7 lately. Like a person running for food and trying to beat Joe Dirt next to me. Let me tell you, Joe Dirt is some feirce competition.

Enough Said

Happy Heart Day!

A man must have made it up...

HAHP. Have a Happy Period. If you are watching TV lately you will see a commercial that has a tag line of that. Its for Always femine period stuff. Yeah I said it. Period Stuff. What the hell kinda of tag line is HAVE A HAPPY PERIOD? It makes me want to say the 'f' word many many times. A man had to of come up with that little slogan. Yea and they even sent out temporary tattoos back a year ago when this whole slogan came out. Like I want to get my hands on one...stick it on my arm (cause it was like a flower with HAHP) and then I want to take a picture of me flipping off the camera yet maybe smiling. How is that for HAHP?

HAHP my ass! Maybe they should pass out Prozac now since they have done did pissed me off.

Twisted ARM

So I was told that I have to put something new and stuff on here. DUDES my life is a big fun ball of goo. Goo. No not the Goo Goo Dolls, because at least they are a band and travel and stuff and can sing...and have better hair than me, and I think the lead singer can apply his eyeliner much better also. Just Goo.

I am car shopping and working and being a mom. Trying to stay happy in a non happy world. I did hear a bit of AWESOME news this week that totally made my whole week complete. NKOTB might go on tour??? Maybe they did announce it already but I am way super excited! I got a NKOTB sweatshirt when they were so not cool anymore. Dad thought it would be awesome for me to have it 2 years after they hit it big. We all know they were so not cool during that time, but it was the weird phase in fashion where you could turn your sweatshirt inside out and still be cool. The only issue with that is that you could still see the NKOTB floating heads through the inside outish sweatshirt. Oh well. I think I need therapy sessions for this stuff. In other news, I got my smelly tart brittle today. And Sam made a heart man. Heartman I love thee!!

OH and the movie STARDUST is a must see for all! Even though some person I know who hates everything doesn't recommend it, but if you have an open mind WATCH IT its great. :)

Peace Out
