I will stay away from all the cop killing stuff going on around the country because I do not live in the 40’s and but I also believe that if the killing was deserved, then they got what they deserved. I don’t care what color you are either.
So my friend posted a picture of this girl in a bikini on Facebook and said, “This is what I want for Christmas.” All of his buddies were saying hell yeah and sure – I’ll tell her now, etc, etc. MY reply to it was total loving sarcasm (because we were in high school band together and now he’s a HOT UFC fighter) was “Well, C, I wasn’t aware that you wore bikinis but if that’s what you want, sure!” He “liked” my reply but didn’t respond in writing. If you know me, you know I am sarcastic and if you don’t remember that about me from growing up with me, it’s because life happened and I grew to be this way. I knew everyone in my class of 1991 at my school BUT I did not get along with many of them. Most of my friends are a grade ahead or behind me (like this guy). One of his other friends liked my comment but then they went back to discussing womens bodies so I’m out of that one!
Off THAT subject – Little Man has updated his Christmas Wish List. Anyone that wants to help me out here, please feel free! My parents have gotten the HUGE ticket item he asked for (well, dear old Dad overspent – I don’t know WHERE he got the iPad Mini but he paid WAY too much! I got the 2nd big ticket item already using my Radisson points to get $200 free so I only had to pay taxes to get the 3DS. I’ll tell you the few perks of being an agent in a minute. He has asked for just about every Beyblade known to man along with “Every Pokemon card pack I can get”. For Books he says, “No educational, boring, or pages above 300. This means your choice.” That’s a choice??? For gift cards he says, “To game stop, academy, toys r us (all $70 or above). This kid has some balls man! I should get him a $10 gift card just to freak him out. And he KNOWS I can’t afford all this! He says he believes in Santa only because he know’s he gets gifts that way. He told me 2 years ago that he doesn’t believe in Santa so I know he’s just playing along.
Speaking of Christmas, I have asked my parents for tickets to the Nutcracker. If they think I’m taking Little Man, they are off their rocker! I can’t believe I want to go. I think I’m getting old or just growing up because that is really what I want. I want to get all dressed up, take a car service, and be dropped off in front to go see the Nutcracker downtown after having a nice dinner somewhere with somebody. Who that somebody will be I have NO clue. I hope I’m not the only one of my friends that is into Classical music and traditions!
So, travel agent perks SUCK these days. At least in the corporate world. All tickets go back to our clients as bonuses for being with us so no free tickets. BOO! SO. I get the following on my own:
Radisson and Sheraton give points for bookings and you save up your points and get gift cards or miles or free nights at Radisson or Sheraton hotels (takes forever when you don’t book them very often!)
Budget/Avis rental cars give $0.25 per day of any rental booking. I get about $50 every 2 months if I haven’t missed any work and have been booking cars like crazy.
Comfort/Quality Hotel chain gives $1 for each 3 day booking you do.
If I have missed any, please share because I need everything extra I can get!!!
That’s about it for this Friday, I should probably get to work too. Hehehe
