If You're New...

Welcome to Shaelee's World! A pinch of fantasy, a dash of laughter, and whole lot of me bakes into this blog I've created about my world and what I observe in it (Or create from my imagination). It'll be an interesting ride, so pull up a chair, a cup of hot chocolate (or any beverage, really) and read! But most importantly, let me know what you think and what's going on in your life too!

Topless Italian Burgers

I made hamburgers for the first time tonight. I seasoned them with italian seasoning, the only kind of seasoning we really had in the apartment, and then, since I didn't have hamburger buns, I put them on a slice of bread, without a top bun. So I dubed my burger creations "Topless Italian Burgers." They were yummy! I am seriously proud of myself for my cooking success tonight! I think it will become a more regular part of my diet now! I love hamburgers, and I am so happy to discover that I can successfully make them on my own without having to pay for a wimpy fast food burger, pay for an expensive restaurant burger, or wait until I go home to make them.

I'm so proud of myself!

Cell Phones

I've been without my phone since Monday. Its dead--won't charge, won't turn on, d-e-a-d dead. I had to use my roommate's phone to call my dad so he could call customer service for me. Now they are sending me a new phone, supposed to get here today, only, with campus mail like it is, i doubt i will get it today. i went to pick it up a little bit ago and they weren't even there! :( they are moving the mailboxes and the bookshop to another building, and so its all crazy and hectic. and i have to work tomorrow, so i can't get it then, and they aren't open saturday/sundays, so next week is the only time i can get it. Monday, maybe, i might have to work. Tuesday, maybe, if i work monday. not wednesday, maybe thursday, not friday. so :( BOO!!!! i want my phone i don't want to have to be a FULL WEEK without it. besides, once i get it i have to do all this junk to it, activate it and bring it in to transfer info--because i am NOT going without my pics of my baby nephew that are on there. priceless never get again pictures! besides, since my phone is DEAD i can't transfer over the contacts myself. :( boo again. boo times ten million. if i GET my phone today, i might not be able to get it to the store to transfer info until next week, so it'd be worthless anyway. i hope can get it all sorted out today. i need to send off the old one back to the company, and i need to do THAT within ten days or whatever. which puts ME on a time crunch that i can't afford. :( ugh. i hate this. i HATE this with a PASSION. the mail guy won't be back there till 4:00. i was there at 3:30, and i couldn't waste a half hour there doing nothing. so now i have to go back after 4 and see if my package is there. this time i am driving, last time i walked, and its hot as heck outside.

busy busy busy bee

I've been real busy lately. I worked 32 hours last week, and I have 32 hours this week too. I had Monday off, and I have Thrusday off, but other than that, I work every day, 8 hours a day (except Sunday, I don't work Sundays). Tomorrow is the head housekeeper's birthday at the Inn, and I was going to get her a card then I completely forgot when I was at Wal-Mart. I got groceries, but didn't venture to the other side of the store to look at the cards. Shoot!

Anyway, I don't know what else to really say right now. I'll get back to you...

Sexy Cowboy

I have a special request for my Gregory. I want a sexy cowboy type guy. Maybe not LITERALLY a cowboy, but that persona, that feeling of a sexy cowboy; preferably a cowboy who can sing...

Can you blame a girl for hoping?

I want him rugged, but handsome.
Can I get him sophisticated, but rough around the edges?
I prefer a tall drink of water... but not a string bean, please.
I want some meat on his bones,
shoulders that can really fill a shirt...
A head of hair that isn't filled with too much product,
but not hopelessly out of control.
He should be morally sound, christian man
but have a bad side.
I want a man
but he doesn't exist, not in this dimension.
His name is Gregory,
but I don't think he's real--
really out there.
really for me.

wow, spontaneous poetry.

sinner in the hands of an angry God

I skipped church again today. i DID read some of my bible though, in Luke 3, and then somewhere else about judgement. now i'm watching evan almighty.

my best friend in the whole world is coming to visit me saturday. i'm excited. and my other friend from school is in town for a choir thing, and we're going to hang out this week. we're going to a movie sometime, Prince of Perisa, because I want to see it so much but i don't want to go alone. I think i will go to a movie with melissa on sat. when she gets here. :D i'm excited for this week. it will be a good upper for me, from being lonely this past week without my fav. roommate in the apt anymore.

I'm a Cockatoo


I never thought that cockatoos could be cute, but they kind of are. Seriously, google image "cockatoo" and you'll see some awesomely strange birds. I always said that if i were an animal, i would want to be a bird, because i want to sing and fly. more specifically, i think i'd be a cockatoo. they are odd, like me, and it makes a great match.


besides, with my hair having been cut by the glass in the crash, my hair sticks straight up on my head just like a cockatoo. i always have to pull it back in order for it to look okay. i have two options: ponytail or half ponytail, with the occasional bun if i'm in the right mood. right now, i'm alone in my apt and i have it down, with a little piece of yarn that i'm wearing like a headband. its odd, i know, but hey, i'm a cockatoo, i'm allowed to be odd.


There is a blue sky and sunshine outside. its a glorious day to fly in the clouds. maybe i'll go fly around a little bit. i think i'm overdo for some suntanning and reading Pride and Prejudice in the grass (one of my favorite pasttimes). But first, I am doing something with my hair. and maybe i'll change my shirt. but then again, maybe not. its an oversized royals t-shirt, and its comfy and hides the fact that these pants are too small just slightly now, enough to give me an unattractive muffin top. of course, when are muffin tops ever attractive? never.

Grocery shopping--midnight style

so, i got off work and decided that, since i haven't had time lately to go grocery shopping, and i really need to, i would just go after work tonight. so at midnight, i got to walmart and buy groceries. i know, i'm a strange child. but i got some good stuff, restocked i shouldn't have to go shopping again for two weeks if i play my cards right. except maybe milk.i go through tons of milk.

i got LOTS of goodies, including Breyers ice cream on rollback. it is only 1 cent more than the great value stuff, and so much better! plus, its all natural, and it better for me than the ben and jerry's stuff, and i will eat less at a time withe the half gallon ( i have tiny bowls i use). so it was awesome. i hate those commericals, the rollback commericals, but in actuality, they DO save me money, and honestly, i appreciate it, and i wouldn't shop anywhere else, probably, because i know i can get pretty good stuff as great value at walmart and come out on budget, under sometimes.

my roommate asked me to do the dishes, too. she left a note. she has company coming over tomorrow and apparantly the two sinkful of dishes plus a counter full of dishes couldn't be tackled by HER, since its HER company, but had to be done by ME, who could care less if her company saw our dirty dishes. whatever, i did them anyway, because i've been meaning to. i even took out the overflowing trash (your welcome, roommate!) i'm just staying, after 8 hours at work, nearly an hour of grocery shopping, DISHES was the LAST thing i wanted to do. and they took me 45 minutes to do, because they were everywhere. is started at 1:30-ish, and finished around 2:15 to put away clean dishes, wash dirty ones, and rinse them. ugh. my feet are KILLING me! I thought i'd treat myself to a netflix movie and a small bowl of ice cream (already scarfed down). maybe i'll watch the proposal.

oh, and i bought popcorn. butter lovers. for when i watch all my movies.

oh, and i work three days next week already. monday night, wednesday day, and friday night. yay. and if i'm lucky, i might even get thrusday night from ronnie. *crosses fingers* that would be four days i would work, which would give me 32 hours for that week. that would be awesome. :D *prays fervently* tiring, sure, but it would be worth it.

i am really wanting a cute guy to show up soon, or i'll go crazy. quite frankly, i'm getting cuddle-hungry!! (or horny, however you want to phrase it. i prefer cuddle-hungry. its more polite).

Crochet lessons

So I was home alone last night, doing stuff on my computer when a friend come by (a guy-friend, mind you, the one that the guy thought i was dating) and he poked his head at my window and was like, 'hey megan! Whatcha doing?" I said absolutely nothing, and he was like, can i come in? i said sure, and so he came in, and we chatted a little, and then we did some crocheting (last time he came over mandy taught him, if you remember). we listened to some music, crocheted, then watched the last episode of Glee together, and then he mentioned this other show, The Modern Family, and he said that he thought i'd like it, so we watched a few episodes of it, and it was funny. then we both facebooked and it was kind of funny, because we didn't talk, we just were both on facebook. it was weird. he left at 11, and i went to bed (i had to work at 8 this morning)

thats all. i don't even know what else to write, because nothing has happened.

Cute Boss-man Strikes Again

Today, I went to work, all for the attitude that cute boss-man is off limits, dating someone else, thing. I even wore a cute dress to work today, brown and yellow that looks great on my figure, thinking, hey, i want to dress up just for the heck of it, because i can (and because i have to do laundry).

Cute boss-man called at work, asking if it was raining, there was a storm coming. i said there wasn't, and he was all, great, thats what we needed to hear, and then we hung up. a few hours later he PULLS UP to the inn, and wiht some other guy, unloads tv's on our luggage cart and puts them in the breakfast prep room. He was looked nice in a blue polo and khaki shorts (how do you spell khaki... kakhi?) he stayed for like, a half hour to an hour unloading and doing a few other things. He told me that i was doing a few things wrong, and to do it this way instead, and to do this, and that, and for some reason, the way he said it, irked me to no end. I got MAD at him. i stuck my tongue out behind his back (which, looking back, wasn't a good idea because of reflective glass doors... yah, yikes.) yah, i was ridiculous. but it felt good, because since i was mad at him, i forgot that i had a crush on him. it was a good relief.

then he called later a few times, checking on things, and adding a note to tomorrows day people, etc, and he seemed happy to talk to me, and glad to talk to me, etc, you know? there was something happy about his voice. and like the first time he called and he found out i was working he was like, "hey!!" and was like, really excited to talk to me. it was a little wierd, but nice, and made me smile. :) you know?

I'm like a little girl in middle school, going on about some guy. he's four years older than me, for heaven's sake. He's not even christian, i don't think, because i heard him cuss. would a good christian guy cuss? Honestly, i keep asking myself that, holding to the hope that he is and it just slipped out.... or that its a bad habit he hasn't dropped yet.

i don't know, i think i'm just blowing it out of porportion. one of my roommates, the one who used to be engaged, now has this new guy she met that's she's been going on dates with, and he sounds like a great guy. and now i keep thinking about the only prospect on my table right now, cute boss-man. *sigh*

i hate this. go away, cute boss-man, stop being so amiable, and friendly, and cute. stop calling work when i am working, and stop coming to the inn when i am working. stop it, cute boss-man. stop it.

his name is jason. i just had to say that, because i like his name. its a nice name.

stop it. gosh, change your name to something less cute, like harold, or jim. UGH!

Birthday Cake

We have half a birthday cake in our apartment, screaming my name. its perfect--yellow cake with chocolate frosting, my favorite. its my roommates birthday today, and my other friend too, who came and stayed with us last night. the cake is delicious... i had two pieces after work last night... :D

I am going crazy with my fantasies about Cute Boss-man, so I have determined to dub him "off limits" He now has a girlfriend that he will propose to soon. Shh, don't tell anyone (mostly because its all madeup) this will help me, however, not to think of him like that anymore, if i tell myself that he's already taken. its helped in the past.

I now have netflix on my computer, thanks to my dad. Yahoo!! i was so happy!! Its so handy! its like an online video store, but i don't have to pay anything! Haha, its wonderful with all types of movies that i've always wanted to see/never heard of/sound interesting. Lol.

I'm a little bit rock'n'roll.... Actually not really rocknroll so much as classic rock. I just like the allusion to the song. I listen to classic rock radio station at work because its either that, vulgar pop, or country. I pick classic rock! its what my dad listens to, and i always thought it was annoying and not my thing, but now that i listen to it, i like it. i will prob. never admit that i like my dad's music to his face..... Oh my gosh, i'm turning into my father. NOOOOO!!!!!

Pardon me while i have a panic attack....

[leaves room and screams then returns]

okay, i'm over it now. thank you for obliging me there. Haha. Now i think i will go and watch a jane austen novel on film via netflix.
